EBITDA had a negative result of AR$ 5,503 million. During the first 6 months of 2022, it accumulates a negative result of ARS 3,945 million. The difference can be explained by a decrease in sales revenues, due to tariff freeze, an increase in operating costs, partially offset by an improvement in energy losses.

Net results accumulated losses for AR$ 6,549 million in 2Q22, reducing losses by AR$ 11,371 million compared to the same period of last year.

During the second quarter of the year, there was a higher loss in the operating income, higher financial losses mainly due to the deferral of the payment of obligations with the Wholesale Electricity Market and a positive result for exposure to changes in purchasing power (RECPAM) compared to the same period in 2021.

Revenues from sales

Revenues from sales decreased by 6% to AR$ 36,729 million in 2Q22, against AR$ 39,155 million in 2Q21. This is mainly due to the delay in the tariff adjustment in an inflationary context partially offset by the volume levels of energy sold increased.

Energy purchases

Energy purchases decreased by 7% to AR$ 27,103 million in 2Q22, against AR$ 25,334 million for the same period in 2021. In turn, the reference seasonal price for residential customers is still subsidized by the Federal Government, where the subsidy reached 70% of the system’s actual generation cost in the second quarter of 2022, while large users receive no subsidy in the energy price.

Gross Margin

The gross margin corresponding to 2Q22 was AR$ 9,626 million, which represents a fall of 30% compared to the same period of the previous year. The gross margin accumulated as of 06/30/2022 was ARS 24,212 million, which represents a fall of 16% compared to the same period of the previous year.

By means of Resolution No. RESOL-2022-405-APN-SE, the ENRE applied the update of the seasonal price of energy (PEST, in Spanish), which is effective as of June 1, 2022, and instructed Edenor to make the corresponding adjustment of the tariff scheme, where it was established that the tariffs would have an average increase with respect to the previous tariff scheme of 14% in the residential category and 15% in the general category.

Volume of Energy Sales

The volume of energy sales increased by 8.3%, reaching 5,919 GWh in 2Q22, against 5,463 GWh for the same period of 2021.

Furthermore, edenor’s customer base rose by 2.1% compared to the same period of the previous year, reaching more than 3.2 million of customers, mainly on account of the increase in residential customers and small commercials as a result of the market discipline actions and the installation of 6,416 integrated energy meters during the last quarter that were mainly intended for the regularization of clandestine connections.

Given the tariff delay, our income was highly committed. For these reasons, we have seen the need to partially defer payments to CAMMESA for the energy acquired in the Wholesale Electricity Market as from maturities taking place in March 2020. These obligations have been partially regularized; however, as of June 30, 2022, the overdue principal balance accumulated is ARS 38,937 million, plus interest and penalties in the sum of ARS 40,372 million.

As regards the treatment of the debt accumulated, Decree 88/2022 extended until December 31, 2022 the implementation of the "Special Regime for the Regularization of Obligations" for the debts maintained by the electricity distributors with CAMMESA, and the "Special Regime of Credits” established by the Secretariat of Energy within the framework of Section 87 of Law No. 27.591 and Resolutions No. 40/21 and 371/21.

Operating expenses increased by 12%, reaching AR$ 19,349 million during the first six months in 2Q22, against AR$ 17,276 million in 2Q21. This can be explained by the increase in the energy prices.

Financial Results

Financial results experienced a decrease in the amount of AR$ 14,075 million in 2Q 2022, which represented an increase of 83 %. This difference is mainly due to higher interest accrued on the debt incurred with CAMMESA.

 

Net Income

Net income decreased by 63 %, totaling AR$ 6,549 million in 2Q22, against AR$ 17,920 million for the same period in 2021. There was a higher loss in the operating income, higher financial charges due to the deferral of the payment of obligations with the Wholesale Electricity Market and a higher positive result for exposure to changes in purchasing power (RECPAM).

EBITDA showed a decrease of 346% in 2Q22, and a decrease of 201% in the accumulated figure of 6 months, compared to the same period of the previous year. This difference is mainly due to the increase in operating costs, where the decrease in gross margin due to the decrease in unrecognized losses and the increase in seasonal prices were not proportional to the increase in VAD.

Service Quality Standards

The investment plan executed in recent years continues to show results that are reflected in a continuous improvement in the quality of service, by reducing the duration and frequency of outages since 2014, and thus exceeding the established regulatory requirements.

   

Edenor S.A – Earnings Release 2Q22

Quality standards are measured based on the duration and frequency of service outages using SAIDI and SAIFI indicators. SAIDI refers to the duration of outages and measures the number of outage hours a user experiences per year. SAIFI refers to the frequency of outages and measures the number of times a user experiences an outage during a year.

At the closing of the second quarter of 2022, SAIDI and SAIFI indicators for the last 12 months were 10,0 hours and 4,0 outages on average per client per year, evidencing a 16% and 8% improvement, respectively, compared to the same period of the previous year. This recovery in service levels is mainly due to the investment plan devised by the Company since 2014, the different improvements implemented in the operating processes, and the adoption of technology applied to the grid´s operation and management.

Energy Losses

In 2Q22, energy losses experienced a 17.6% decrease, against 18.3% for the same period of the previous year.

The works of multidisciplinary teams to develop new solutions to energy losses continued, as well as Market Discipline (DIME) actions aiming to reduce them. Analytical and artificial intelligence tools were used to enhance effectiveness in the routing of inspections, and DIME actions continued with the objective of detecting and normalizing irregular connections, fraud and energy theft.

In addition, during the three-month period from April to June 2022, 82,058 inspections of Tariff 1 (Residential and General users) were conducted with a 60.6 % efficiency, while for the same period of the previous year 124,174 inspections had been conducted with a 52,2% efficiency. Moreover, 6,416 Integrated Energy Meters (MIDE) were installed during 2022.

Regarding the recovery of energy, besides the normalization of customers with MIDE meters, clandestine customers with conventional meters were also put back to normal. Moreover, a new energy balance system was implemented, as well as the development of micro-balances in private neighborhoods. In all cases, a rate of recidivism in fraud has been observed.

Indebtedness

 

As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding principal of our dollar-denominated financial debt amounts to $ 78 million, whereas the cash position net of financial debt amounts to $ -154 million.

It is indicated therein that the Company may not incur new Indebtedness, except for a certain Permitted Indebtedness or when the Indebtedness ratio is greater than 3.75 or less than 0 and the Financial Expenses Coverage ratio is less than 2.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the values ​​of the ratios indicated above do not meet the established parameters.
