Let’s go through this step-by-step. **Step 1 – Identify the relevant industry** ENI S.P.A. is a major integrated oil and gas company (exploration & production, refining, chemicals, trading). The provided methodology has a section **"Oil And Gas Exploration And Production"**, which fits ENI’s main activities. --- **Step 2 – Estimate Adjusted EBITDA** From the income statement data: - **Revenue and Other Income** (2022): 133,687,000,000 EUR - **Total Purchases, Services and Other Costs**: (102,529,000,000) - **Impairment loss (trade receivables)**: +47,000,000 (the amount given is -47m for impairment, meaning a reversal, so it reduces costs) - **Employee Benefits Expense**: (3,015,000,000) - **Other Operating Income/Expense**: (1,736,000,000) - **Depreciation and Amortisation**: (7,205,000,000) - **Impairment Loss (other)**: (1,140,000,000) - **Write-off Tangible/Intangible Assets**: (599,000,000) **Profit from Operating Activities** = 17,510,000,000 EUR (this matches the given total). Reconstruct EBITDA: EBITDA = Operating profit + D&A + Impairments + Write-offs = 17,510,000,000 + 7,205,000,000 + 1,140,000,000 + 599,000,000 = 26,454,000,000 EUR Adjustments (S&P methodology): - No lease adjustment needed at EBITDA level for E&P beyond what IFRS 16 already includes (leases are already embedded). - No extraordinary items detailed to adjust further here. So **Adjusted EBITDA ≈ 26,454,000,000 EUR**. --- **Step 3 – Estimate FFO** FFO = Adjusted EBITDA – cash interest – cash taxes From cash flow statement: - **Interest Paid** (operating): (851,000,000) - **Income Taxes Paid**: (8,488,000,000) FFO = 26,454,000,000 – 851,000,000 – 8,488,000,000 = 17,115,000,000 EUR --- **Step 4 – Estimate Adjusted Debt** **Reported debt:** - Short-term borrowings: 4,446,000,000 - Current portion of long-term borrowings: 3,097,000,000 - Current lease liabilities: 884,000,000 - Long-term borrowings: 19,374,000,000 - Non-current lease liabilities: 4,067,000,000 Total = 31,868,000,000 EUR **Leases already included in reported debt above**, so no extra lease adjustment needed. **Pension deficit**: Noncurrent Provisions for Employee Benefits: 786,000,000 EUR (This is the deficit; S&P would add it to debt.) **Hybrid debt portion**: Perpetual subordinated bonds: based on equity movements, there were 2,000m issued in prior years. Adjust 50% as debt = ~1,000,000,000 EUR. But given complexity and absence of explicit hybrid details in debt totals, and no dedicated line item in borrowings, likely S&P treats some portion (50%) as debt. Without clear split in the data, I will assume it’s already captured or negligible for now. **Other debt-like items**: None evident. **Eligible cash**: Cash and cash equivalents = 10,155,000,000 EUR (S&P usually caps surplus cash, but no indication given to cap here.) **Adjusted Debt** = 31,868,000,000 + 786,000,000 – 10,155,000,000 = 22,499,000,000 EUR --- **Step 5 – FFO / Adjusted Debt** = 17,115,000,000 / 22,499,000,000 = 0.7607 --- 0.7607
