Financial Performance:
E.ON reported a 1% increase in Q1 adjusted EBITDA, reaching EUR 2.7 billion, notwithstanding the absence of significant one-offs from last year.
In accordance with EBITDA development, net income also rose by 2%.
E.ON displayed sound execution of their investment strategy as they projected a capex increase of approximately 25% YoY.
Economic net debt remains in line with past expectations, largely driven by typical Q1 cash flow seasonality.
Business Progress:
Long-term growth for the Energy Infrastructure Solutions sector is promising as E.ON prepares to make it an independent segment.
E.ON's Q1 EBITDA growth was chiefly driven by new project commissioning in this sector and positive price adjustments boosting the B2B sector, particularly in the UK.
With the issuance of EUR 3.3 billion of bonds covering funding needs for 2024 and prefunding for 2025, E.ON expressed intentions of dedicating 80% of its EUR 5 billion CapEx to growth investments in 15 countries, primarily Germany, Sweden, and the UK.
E.ON's operational excellence especially in energy networks has been recognized, as confirmed by the regulator's public endorsement.
