Let’s go through the steps systematically. --- ## 1. Industry Identification REDEIA CORPORACION SA (formerly Red Eléctrica Corporación, S.A.) is a Spanish electricity transmission system operator. It is a regulated utility under a transparent, stable regulatory framework (strong regulatory advantage). Thus, we use the **Regulated Utilities** methodology. --- ## 2. Adjusted EBITDA ### Step 2.1 — Reconstruct EBITDA We start from **Profit Loss From Operating Activities** (EBIT): EBIT = 961,554,000 EUR Add back **Depreciation and Amortisation Expense**: D&A = 544,992,000 EUR So: EBITDA = EBIT + D&A EBITDA = 961,554,000 + 544,992,000 = **1,506,546,000 EUR** ### Step 2.2 — Adjustments - **Leases**: IFRS 16 — we check if lease depreciation is included in D&A and lease interest in finance costs. Data suggests possible lease liabilities under borrowings, but no split is given. We assume IFRS 16 already accounted in EBITDA and debt. - **Non-recurring items**: No clear non-recurring gains/losses mentioned outside normal operations. - **Joint ventures**: "Participacion En Beneficios De Sociedades Valoradas Por El Metodo De La Participacion" = 50,405,000 EUR — this is equity-accounted income already included in EBIT. Under S&P, we do not add proportional JV EBITDA again unless we deconsolidate. We keep as is. - **Pension adjustments**: No data on pension deficit changes; assume none required. Thus: Adjusted EBITDA ≈ **1,506,546,000 EUR** --- ## 3. FFO Calculation FFO = Adjusted EBITDA – Cash Interest – Cash Taxes ### Cash Interest Interest Paid Classified As Operating Activities = 123,524,000 EUR Interest Paid Classified As Financing Activities = 0 EUR So cash interest = **123,524,000 EUR** ### Cash Taxes Income Taxes Paid = 363,996,000 EUR ### FFO FFO = 1,506,546,000 – 123,524,000 – 363,996,000 FFO = **1,019,026,000 EUR** --- ## 4. Adjusted Debt ### Step 4.1 — Reported Debt We take: - Long-term borrowings (2023-01-01) = 5,491,124,000 - Current borrowings and current portion of noncurrent borrowings (2023-01-01) = 721,845,000 Total reported debt = 5,491,124,000 + 721,845,000 = **6,212,969,000 EUR** ### Step 4.2 — Other Debt-like Items - **Leases**: IFRS 16 leases already in borrowings; no separate adjustment needed. - **Pension deficit**: No data on unfunded pension obligations; assume zero. - **Hybrids**: No hybrids mentioned. - **Guarantees**: None mentioned. So Adjusted Debt (before cash) = **6,212,969,000 EUR** ### Step 4.3 — Eligible Cash Cash and Cash Equivalents (2023-01-01) = 794,824,000 EUR We assume all cash is eligible unless restricted. No restriction data. ### Step 4.4 — Adjusted Debt (net) Adjusted Debt = 6,212,969,000 – 794,824,000 = **5,418,145,000 EUR** --- ## 5. Ratio FFO / Adjusted Debt = 1,019,026,000 / 5,418,145,000 ≈ **0.1881** --- 0.1881
