Step 1 — Relevant industry REDEIA CORPORACION SA is primarily an electricity transmission/network infrastructure group, i.e., a regulated utility. The relevant methodology is therefore Regulated Utilities. The methodology does not require a special replacement for the basic debt/EBITDA calculation here, but it highlights typical utility adjustments such as debt-like obligations, leases, pensions, purchased power contracts, and securitized debt where applicable. The provided data does not include separate lease liabilities, pension deficits, guarantees, hybrids, or purchased-power obligations, so I use reported financial borrowings and available cash/near-cash items. Step 2 — Estimate Adjusted_Debt Use year-end 2022 balance sheet values, shown as 2023-01-01. Reported debt: - Long-term borrowings = 5,491,124,000 - Current borrowings and current portion of noncurrent borrowings = 721,845,000 Reported gross debt = 5,491,124,000 + 721,845,000 = 6,212,969,000 Other debt-like items: - No lease liabilities separately disclosed in the provided facts. - No pension deficit separately disclosed. - No guarantees or hybrid debt portion provided. - “Other current financial liabilities” and “other noncurrent financial liabilities” are not clearly borrowings from the provided labels, so I do not include them in baseline debt. Eligible cash: - Cash and cash equivalents = 794,824,000 - Current financial assets at amortised cost = 752,505,000 For an S&P-style adjusted debt estimate, surplus cash and highly liquid current financial assets can reasonably be treated as eligible cash-like offsets, subject to judgment. Thus: Eligible cash = 794,824,000 + 752,505,000 = 1,547,329,000 Adjusted_Debt = 6,212,969,000 - 1,547,329,000 = 4,665,640,000 Step 3 — Estimate Adjusted_EBITDA Reconstruct EBITDA from operating profit plus depreciation and amortisation. - Profit/loss from operating activities = 961,554,000 - Depreciation and amortisation expense = 544,992,000 EBITDA = 961,554,000 + 544,992,000 = 1,506,546,000 Potential adjustments: - No lease depreciation/interest data provided. - No pension adjustments provided. - No clear nonrecurring losses/gains requiring adjustment. - Share of profit from equity-accounted investments is included in operating profit, but no proportional JV EBITDA data is provided. Therefore no JV proportional EBITDA adjustment is made. Adjusted_EBITDA = 1,506,546,000 Step 4 — Adjusted_Debt / Adjusted_EBITDA Adjusted_Debt / Adjusted_EBITDA = 4,665,640,000 / 1,506,546,000 = 3.0969 Rounded to two decimals = 3.10 3.10
