The EBITDA result generated by the ENEA Group in H1 2021 was driven largely by the following factors (compared to H1 2020):

In the Mining Area, the higher EBITDA was driven mainly by the higher sales of coal, partially offset by a lower sales price.

In the Generation Area, a significant decrease in EBITDA was recorded in the System Power Plants Segment, driven by the lower margin on generation and the margin on trading and the Balancing Market, partially offset by revenue earned on the Capacity Market. In the Heat Segment and the RES Segment, an increase in EBITDA was recorded.

In the Distribution Area, the higher EBITDA was driven by larger margins on licensed activities coupled with greater operating expenses and a lower result on other operating activities.

In the Trading area, the lower EBITDA results mainly from the lower average sales price of energy, a change in provisions related to onerous contracts, a revaluation of CO2 contracts and an increase in the costs of environmental obligations, partially offset by a lower average energy purchase price.

Please note that the term EBITDA is defined as the value of operating profit (loss) + depreciation and amortization + impairment losses on non-financial non-current assets (values for the reporting period). EBITDA is a standard measure of efficiency of a business activity, in particular for the industry in which the Issuer's Group operates. The term CAPEX signifies capital expenditures on property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. CAPEX is a standard indicator, also in the Issuer's industry, that expresses the value of expenditures incurred in connection with the maintenance and growth of business by the respective entity. The foregoing definitions and methodologies for their calculation are the same as the definitions and methodologies for the calculation of these indicators applied in the Issuer's periodic reports. The definitions of these terms are also included in the glossary of terms and abbreviations available on the Company's website (https://ir.enea.pl/slownik).
