Step 1: Identify the relevant industry Ørsted A/S is a major renewable energy company, primarily involved in offshore wind, onshore wind, and solar generation, as well as providing energy to customers. Based on the S&P methodologies provided, it does not operate under comprehensive rate regulation like a "Regulated Utility," nor is it an "Oil and Gas Exploration and Production" company or "Transportation Infrastructure." Instead, its business model of generating and selling power, much of which is under long-term contracts or feed-in tariffs, aligns with the "Unregulated Power And Gas" sector. We will apply the general corporate baseline formulas for the financial metrics calculation, as the Unregulated Power and Gas methodology refers to the "Corporate Methodology: Ratios And Adjustments" for calculating financial metrics and does not specify different baseline formulas for FFO or Debt. Step 2: Estimate Adjusted EBITDA We start with the reported EBITDA. Reported EBITDA (Profit Loss From Operating Activities Before Interest Taxes Depreciation And Amortisation Expense) = 32,057,000,000 DKK Adjustments: - Adjustment for leases: S&P typically adds back 1/3 of lease rent expense (or interest/depreciation components) to EBITDA to treat leases as debt-like. Rent/lease expenses are often embedded in "Other External Expenses" or "Cost of Sales" and detailed breakdowns are not provided here. Without explicit lease expense data, we use the standard approximation by adding 1/3 of the right-of-use asset depreciation (often similar to lease liability principal) or 8x the lease interest. However, since detailed lease expense isn't separated, we estimate the lease add-back. S&P's lease adjustment typically adds back the estimated interest and depreciation on leases. A common proxy is 1/3 of the lease expense. Since precise lease expense is not available, we estimate the rent expense from operating lease liabilities. Total lease liabilities = 7,697,000,000 (Noncurrent) + 569,000,000 (Current) = 8,266,000,000 DKK. Assuming a 5% discount rate, the interest is ~413,300,000 and depreciation ~413,300,000, totaling ~826,600,000. Adding this back: 32,057,000,000 + 826,600,000 = 32,883,600,000. Let's use a simpler standard S&P rule if no expense is given: S&P adds back 8x lease interest to EBITDA for the lease debt adjustment, but for the EBITDA adjustment, it's the full lease expense. We will assume a lease expense of roughly 850,000,000 DKK to be added back. - Nonrecurring items: Gains/Losses on disposals. Gains on disposals of investments = 331,000,000 DKK. Adjustments for losses/gains on disposal of noncurrent assets = -10,885,000,000 DKK (This is a negative adjustment to net income in the cash flow statement, meaning it was a gain of 10,885,000,000 in the income statement. Let's check: "Adjustments For Losses Gains On Disposal Of Noncurrent Assets" is negative when there is a gain. So there is a total gain of 10,885,000,000 + 331,000,000 = 11,216,000,000 DKK. These are nonrecurring and should be subtracted from EBITDA). - Change in derivatives: "Change In Derivatives Other Adjustments" = -8,687,000,000 DKK (negative adjustment to net income implies a gain of 8,687,000,000 DKK). This is likely mark-to-market gains on derivatives. S&P often normalizes these out of EBITDA unless they are effective hedges. Given the magnitude, we will deduct this non-cash/mark-to-market gain. Adjusted EBITDA = 32,057,000,000 (Reported EBITDA) - 11,216,000,000 (Nonrecurring gains on disposals) - 8,687,000,000 (Mark-to-market derivative gains) + 850,000,000 (Estimated lease rent add-back) = 13,004,000,000 DKK. Wait, the reported EBITDA already includes these gains. Therefore, we subtract them to get the normalized EBITDA. Let's verify the EBITDA components: EBITDA = EBIT + D&A. Reported EBIT = 19,774,000,000. Reported D&A = 12,283,000,000. 19,774 + 12,283 = 32,057. So Adjusted EBITDA = 32,057,000,000 - 11,216,000,000 - 8,687,000,000 + 850,000,000 = 13,004,000,000 DKK. Step 3: Estimate FFO Baseline formula: FFO = Adjusted EBITDA - cash_interest - cash_taxes Cash interest: From the cash flow statement, "Interest Paid Classified As Operating Activities" = 8,548,000,000 DKK. However, S&P treats lease interest as part of cash interest. The lease interest (~413,300,000 DKK) was already included in the operating activities or financing activities, but typically in operating. We will use the reported interest paid as the base, but note that S&P separates lease interest. We will use 8,548,000,000 DKK as the total cash interest (which includes lease interest). Cash taxes: From the cash flow statement, "Income Taxes Paid Classified As Operating Activities" = 1,263,000,000 DKK. FFO = 13,004,000,000 - 8,548,000,000 - 1,263,000,000 = 3,193,000,000 DKK. Step 4: Estimate Adjusted Debt Baseline formula: Adjusted_Debt = reported_debt + leases + pension_deficit + guarantees + hybrid_debt_portion + other_debt_like_items - eligible_cash Reported debt: Long-term borrowings = 60,451,000,000 DKK Short-term borrowings = 2,830,000,000 DKK Total reported debt = 63,281,000,000 DKK Leases: Noncurrent lease liabilities = 7,697,000,000 DKK Current lease liabilities = 569,000,000 DKK Total leases = 8,266,000,000 DKK Hybrid debt: S&P typically treats hybrid capital as 50% debt and 50% equity if it has features like cumulative deferrable coupons and long maturity. Ørsted has "Hybrid Capital" of 19,793,000,000 DKK. We will add 50% of this to debt. Hybrid debt portion = 19,793,000,000 * 0.5 = 9,896,500,000 DKK. Pension deficit, guarantees, other debt-like items: Not explicitly quantifiable with deficit data, so we assume 0. Eligible cash: Cash and Cash Equivalents (2023-01-01) = 16,175,000,000 DKK. S&P generally limits cash deductions to what is readily available to repay debt. We will use the full cash balance as eligible cash. Adjusted Debt = 63,281,000,000 (Debt) + 8,266,000,000 (Leases) + 9,896,500,000 (Hybrid) - 16,175,000,000 (Cash) = 65,268,500,000 DKK. Step 5: Calculate FFO / Adjusted Debt Ratio = FFO / Adjusted_Debt Ratio = 3,193,000,000 / 65,268,500,000 = 0.048912... Rounding to four decimal places: 0.0489. 0.0489
