OREANDA-NEWS. Business Plan targets:

• EBITDA of approximately 15.5 billion RUR in 2014 and 18.5 billion RUR in 2016

• Net ordinary income of approximately 5 billion RUR in 2014 and 8 billion RUR in 2016

• Total CAPEX for 2014-2018: approximately 38 billion RUR

Moscow, March 26th, 2014 - Today, the Board of Directors of Enel OGK-5 approved the Company's Business Plan for the 2014-2018 period.

Market trends and priorities

The Company's Business Plan reflects the recent trends in the Russian economy and power market, in particular, the new price scenario for 2014-2016 approved by the government in 2013. Having taken into account major factors, expected to influence the performance of Enel OGK-5 in the upcoming 5 years, the company sets out the following priorities for the Business Plan period:

• continuing initiatives in the optimization of its operating expenses,

• ensuring positive free cash flows,

• ensuring a stable dividend distribution to its shareholders in line with the company's dividend policy (40% of pay-out on net ordinary income).

Earnings outlook

Throughout 2014-2018 Enel OGK-5 will focus on improving the technical performance of its cost-effective coal and CCGT fleet, as higher power output by these facilities will help the company avoid the contraction in profitability of its market operations in the medium term. No further new capacity implementation over the business plan horizon is envisaged.

On the costs side, the Company will continue implementing several efficiency measures aimed at cost containment over the next 5 years.

The Business Plan of Enel OGK-5 sets the EBITDA targets at approx. 15.5 billion RUR in 2014 and approx. 18.5 billion RUR in 2016. The reduction of 2014 EBITDA versus the level achieved in 2013 (16.8 billion RUR) is mainly attributable to a number of one-off items which positively affected EBITDA in 2013, in particular the reversal of property tax, while on an adjusted basis EBITDA dynamics are expected to be largely flat. The growth of EBITDA for 2016 is expected to be achieved thanks to the increase in energy margins and the implementation of a new wave of cost optimization initiatives.

The net ordinary income targets of Enel OGK-5 set in the business plan are approx. 5 billion RUR for 2014 and 8 billion RUR for 2016. This will result in a stable and growing dividend distribution to shareholders based on the dividend policy of the Company envisaging a pay-out ratio of 40% of net ordinary income

CAPEX and cash flows outlook

The total amount of planned capital expenditures for the 2014-2018 period is of approx. 38 billion RUR, a reduction of 10% on Capex set in previous 2013-2017 plan. The investment programme envisages stay-in-business and mandatory investments, and a great portion of these investments will be related to Reftinskaya GRES. In particular, as part of its environmental programme, Enel OGK-5 plans to replace at the five units of the power plant, outdated electrostatic precipitators with bag filters, each replacement leading to 90% reduction of ash emissions into the atmosphere.

The reduction in capital expenditures supports the company's free cash flows under the current challenging market conditions. The targets for cash flows of Enel OGK-5 include approximately1 billion RUR positive free cash flow, after dividends for 2014, and approximately6 billion RUR positive free cash flow after dividends for 2016.

Enrico Viale, CEO of Enel OGK-5 commented: “The targets set out in the business plan envisage an increase in our EBITDA by 2016 despite the impact of the new market environment which has turned quite challenging. Our priority is to retain and improve our cost leadership in order to preserve the solidity of our business in the coming years and be able to seize opportunities in an improved scenario.”
