**Step 1: Identify the relevant industry** REDEIA CORPORACION SA (Red Eléctrica Corporación) is the primary transmission system operator and electricity grid manager in Spain. Based on the provided methodology descriptions, it fits perfectly into the **Regulated Utilities** industry (specifically "Electricity National" under the subsectors). Therefore, we will apply the Regulated Utilities methodology. **Step 2: Estimate Adjusted_Debt** The baseline formula for Adjusted Debt is: `Adjusted_Debt = (reported_debt + leases + pension_deficit + guarantees + hybrid_debt_portion + other_debt_like_items) - eligible_cash` - **Reported Debt:** We sum the reported financial borrowings from the balance sheet as of 2022-01-01. - Longterm Borrowings: 5,896,170,000 EUR - Current Borrowings And Current Portion Of Noncurrent Borrowings: 1,391,722,000 EUR - Total Reported Debt = 5,896,170,000 + 1,391,722,000 = 7,287,892,000 EUR - **Leases, Pension Deficit, Guarantees, Hybrids, Other Debt-Like Items:** There are no explicit values provided for leases, pension deficits, guarantees, hybrids, or other debt-like items in the given facts. Thus, these adjustments are 0. - **Eligible Cash:** We subtract highly liquid, unrestricted cash. - Cash And Cash Equivalents (2022-01-01): 1,574,427,000 EUR - **Calculation:** Adjusted_Debt = 7,287,892,000 - 1,574,427,000 = 5,713,465,000 EUR **Step 3: Estimate Adjusted_EBITDA** The baseline formula for Adjusted EBITDA is: `Adjusted_EBITDA = EBITDA (reported or reconstructed) + adjustment_leases + nonrecurring_losses - nonrecurring_gains ± pension_adjustments ± joint_venture_proportional_EBITDA ± other_normalization_adjustments` - **Reported EBITDA:** We reconstruct EBITDA from the income statement using Operating Profit (EBIT) and Depreciation & Amortization for the period 2022-01-01 to 2023-01-01. - Profit Loss From Operating Activities (EBIT): 961,554,000 EUR - Depreciation And Amortisation Expense: 544,992,000 EUR - Reported EBITDA = 961,554,000 + 544,992,000 = 1,506,546,000 EUR - **Adjustment for Leases, Nonrecurring items, Pensions, JVs, Normalizations:** No specific adjustment values are explicitly listed in the data to be added/subtracted per S&P rules (e.g., no operating lease expense separated out, no explicit extraordinary items to normalize). Therefore, we rely on the reported/reconstructed EBITDA. - **Calculation:** Adjusted_EBITDA = 1,506,546,000 EUR **Step 4: Calculate Adjusted_Debt / Adjusted_EBITDA** - Adjusted_Debt = 5,713,465,000 EUR - Adjusted_EBITDA = 1,506,546,000 EUR - Ratio = 5,713,465,000 / 1,506,546,000 = 3.7927... Rounding to two decimal places, we get 3.79. 3.79
