– It is not easy to plan for future, even for the next year. Changing market conditions are the reason why we must have various scenarios on hand. We have to make plans. Investments carried out by the Group are an enormous effort. Our plan until 2020 anticipates expenses at the level of ca. PLN 20 billion. It means the debt of the Group reaching the level of at least PLN 5 billion. It is crucial to precisely plan the level of EBITDA result, as well as the possibilities of debt service and payment. Also very important are: optimisation of costs and improvement of productivity. It determines all actions we take at present. Guaranteeing safety of the Group is paramount – as explained Dalida Gepfert, vice president for finance of Enea.
