EBITDA in first-half 2019 was stable on
first-half 2018, benefitting from favourable market conditions in
France and a very strong performance by EDF Trading. However, it
was negatively impacted by the unfavourable trend in TURPE 5
distribution tariff indexation and increase in expenses for
contributions to the Electricity Equalisation Fund in French
regulated activities, and by the deterioration of conditions in the
UK, (introduction of a cap on standard variable tariffs (SVTs),
suspension of capacity revenues and downturn in nuclear
generation).
Footnotes to the first and second
pages(1) The financial statements at 30 June 2019 have
been prepared in accordance with IFRS 16 as from 1 January 2019
(use of the modified retrospective method). Comparative figures
have not been restated in accordance with the transitional
provisions of the standard.(2) Organic change at comparable scope,
IFRS 16 standard and exchange rates.(3) Net income excluding
non-recurring items is not defined by IFRS and does not appear
directly in the Group's consolidated income statement. It
corresponds to net income excluding non-recurring items, excluding
net changes in fair value on energy and raw materials derivatives,
trading activities and net changes in the fair value of debt
securities and shareholders' equity net of tax.(4) Enterprise value
of US$750m, with an additional consideration of US $100m contingent
on the commissioning of the Cassiopea gas development project in
Italy. Edison could also receive royalties associated with further
potential developments in Egypt, which would bring the aggregate
value to c. US $930m.(5) Net financial debt increased by €4.5bn in
connection with the implementation of IFRS 16 on 1 January 2019.(6)
With unchanged legal and regulatory environment in France. (7)
Based on the scope and exchange rates at 01/01/2019 and assumptions
for nuclear generation in France of 395TWh.(8) Sum of personnel
expenses and other external consumption. At comparable scope, IFRS
16 and exchange rates. At constant pension discount rates.
Excluding changes in operating expenses from service
activities. (9) The impact of IFRS 16 on cash-flow is derived
from the increase in EBITDA, reduced by financial interests on the
IFRS 16 net financial debt. (10) For 2020: depending of the
impact, currently under assessment, of the decision of the French
Nuclear Authority of 19 June 2019 on the schedule and completion
cost of the Flamanville 3 project.(11) Adjusted for the
remuneration of hybrid loans recognised in equity.(12) The disposal
of Edison's Exploration and Production (E&P) activity was
classified as a discontinued operation within the meaning of IFRS 5
as of 1 January 2019. The data published for the 2018 financial
year have been restated for the impact of the presentation of the
E&P activity in the process of being sold.
Operational performance
Nuclear output in France totalled 203.7TWh, up
1.1TWh compared to first-half 2018 owing to improved fleet
availability.Hydropower output in France came to
20.1TWh ([1]), down 31.6% (-9.3TWh) on first-half 2018. This
can be attributed to particularly unfavourable hydro conditions,
with first-half 2019 ranking as the second driest half-year over
the last 30 years.Nuclear output in the United Kingdom amounted to
24.5TWh, down 5.7TWh compared with first-half 2018. The contraction
resulted from the extension of Hunterston B and Dungeness B
outages.In Italy, electricity generation and ancillary services
increased significantly over the first half of the year.In Belgium,
both nuclear and wind power generation increased.EDF Renewables
output amounted to 7.5TWh. As expected, the total was down slightly
(by 0.3TWh) compared to the first-half 2018 owing to the disposals
completed in late-2018 and early-2019. The gross portfolio of
projects under construction at 30 June 2019 reached a record level
of 4GW, equally balanced between onshore wind power and solar
power.
Net income
The financial result corresponds to a financial
expense of €130m in first-half 2019, an improvement of €1,488m
compared to the first-half 2018. This resulted primarily from the
positive variation in the fair value of the portfolio of dedicated
assets in line with the performance of the equity and bond markets
in the first half of the year. This variation in fair value is not
included in the calculation of net income excluding non-recurring
items.Net income excluding non-recurring items totalled €1,402m at
end-June 2019, down €337m compared to the first-half 2018, owing in
particular to an increase in financial expenses and net
depreciation and amortisation consistent with the trend in
investments in the nuclear segment.Net income – Group share came to
€2,498m in first-half 2019, up 44.7% owing to the financial
result.
Cash flow and net financial
debt
Net investments excluding 2019-2020 disposals,
Hinkley Point C and Linky (2) amounted to €5,695m in
first-half 2019, for an increase of €559m. This can be attributed
mainly to an increase in investments in nuclear
maintenance.Operating cash flow stood at €2,505m, down €1,182m
compared to the first-half 2018, the consequence notably of an
increase in investments and a lower contribution from the variation
in the working capital requirement.Group cash flow ([3])
totalled €1,049m, down €497m, stabilising the group's net financial
debt for two consecutive half year.

Sales in France - Generation and supply
activities in the first half of 2019 amounted to €14,299 million,
up +4.5% in organic terms compared to the first half of 2018.
The contribution to Group EBITDA by the segment
amounted to €3,971 million, +6.5% in organic terms compared to
the first half of 2018.
The substantial decrease in hydropower output
(-8.4TWh (9)), only very slightly offset by a rise in nuclear
output (+1.1TWh), had an unfavourable impact on EBITDA estimated at
-€342 million.
Better conditions on the wholesale markets had a
positive effect estimated at +€114 million.
On the downstream market (10), the positive
price movements on market-price offers more than made up for
erosion of market shares (-8.4TWh including losses of volumes for
customers on the regulated sales tariffs). This resulted in a
positive impact of +€305 million compared to the first half of
2018.
The weather in the first half of 2019 had a
favourable impact estimated at+ €40 million.
Regarding regulated sales tariffs (11), the
tariff rise at 1 June 2019 and the tariff reduction in August 2018
(reflecting the completion of the repayment of the 2012-2013 tariff
catch-up component) led to an estimated rise in EBITDA of
+€26 million (excluding energy savings certificates) compared
to the first half of 2018.
Operating expenses ([12]) were reduced by €173
million (-4.2%).
A number of factors had a total effect of -€85
million on EBITDA, principally the rise in costs to meet energy
savings certificates obligations partially offset by net reversals
from provisions.

organic terms compared to the first half of 2018.
EBITDA for the segment stood at €2,578 million,
-6.3% in organic terms compared to the first half of 2018.
EBITDA was affected by indexations on the TURPE
5 tariffs (16) with an estimated impact of -€68 million,
and the unfavourable weather effect, with an estimated impact of
-€36 million.
Other factors had a combined estimated negative
impact of -€128 million on EBITDA: they mainly related to an
increase in expenses for contributions to the Electricity
Equalisation Fund ([17]), and the negative effect of changes in
provisions for employee benefit obligations.
This evolution is partially offset by a growth
in the grid connection services (+€21 million) and the decrease of
operating expenses ([18]) (-€43 million).

Sales in EDF Renewables in the first half of
2019 amounted to €776 million, up 2.2% in organic terms compared to
the first half of 2018.
EDF Renewables’ contribution to Group EBITDA was
€405 million, corresponding to organic growth of +€7 million
(+1.9%) compared to the first half of 2018.
EBITDA from generation recorded an organic
increase of 2.4% compared to the first half of 2018, despite the
disposals completed in late 2018 and early 2019. This change is
primarily attributable to price effects and more favourable wind
conditions.
Development and sales of structured assets were
supported by disposals undertaken in the early part of the year,
notably in US and Poland.
In addition, development costs and head office
costs rose, particularly to support growth.
At 30 June 2019, the net installed
capacities totalled 8GW, stable overall from 31 December 2018. The
gross portfolio of projects under construction at 30 June 2019
reached a record level of 4GW, equally balanced between onshore
wind power and solar power.

amounted to €2,152 million, up 6.4% in organic terms compared to
the first half of 2018.
Dalkia’s EBITDA for the first half of 2019 was
€195 million, corresponding to year-on-year organic growth of
€21 million (+13.2%).
The growth in EBITDA reflects the dynamic sales
activity, particularly in heat networks and energy performance
contracts (signing of a new multiservice contract with Safran
covering 26 sites, a new public service delegation for urban
heating in Grande Île at Vaulx-en-Velin and Villeurbanne for
15.5 years). It also benefited from the commissioning at the
end of 2018 of several cogeneration installations at industrial
sites.
Furthermore, this growth was driven by sales of
energy savings certificates in excess of the regulatory
obligations, which were concentrated in the first half of the year
whereas in 2018 they took place in the second half of the year.

of the Group.
Framatome’s EBITDA was €207 million, -6.2% in
organic terms, including the margin realised with other EDF group
entities. Framatome’s contribution to Group EBITDA for the first
half 2019 stood at €74 million.
The “Fuel” business retreated in the first half
of 2019, due to lower production levels at the European plants and
unfavourable phasing effects during the first half of 2019.
The “Installed base” business improved its
performance in the US and Germany (80% exports) in a highly
competitive market, but was affected in France by project execution
costs for export and French customers.
The “Components” business is recovering
profitability, and continued the step-up in production initiated in
2018 concerning equipment to replace steam generators and equipment
for new projects.
Framatome’s EBITDA also benefited from
continuation of the operating and structure costs reduction
plan.

The electricity activities registered a good
performance, essentially due to higher generation output, the
contribution of electricity ancillary services, and commissioning
of new wind farms (+115MW).
EBITDA for the gas activities was also up. In
the first half of 2018 it had been affected by an unfavourable
price effect relating to wholesale market purchases in a period of
sourcing pressures.
EBITDA for the retail activity was down slightly
year-on-year. The margins on electricity were lower, particularly
in the residential customer segment. Margins for gas improved,
especially in the industrial customer segment

In Belgium (35), EBITDA showed an organic
increase of +€14 million (+17.7%). The performance of thermal
generation has a positive effect on EBITDA estimated at
+€17 million at 30 June 2019. Production of renewable energy
benefited from the increase in installed wind power capacities,
which totalled 450MW at 30 June 2019 (up by +15% compared to 30
June 2018). Service activities are continuing to grow. Supply
activities are still marked by the strongly competitive
environment.
EBITDA in Brazil also showed organic growth of
+€33 million, largely due to the +16% adjustment to the Power
Purchase Agreement (PPA) price in November 2018, and a smaller
maintenance programme than in 2018 which meant that lower energy
purchases were needed to cover the PPA requirements.

EDF Trading turned to its advantage movements in
European market prices in the first half of 2019, which was marked
by a particularly significant decrease in gas prices, and took
positions which are profitable at 30 June 2019. Its activities
on the international energy markets, LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas)
and LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) also contributed to this
performance.
EDF and Jera broadened their partnership to
include LNG optimisation and trading activities since 1 April
2019.
