Pampa Energía Announces Six-Month Period and Second Quarter 2024 Results

BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTIA / ACCESSWIRE / August 7, 2024 / Pampa Energía S.A. (NYSE:PAM)(Buenos Aires Stock Exchange:PAMP), an independent company with active participation in the Argentine electricity and gas value chain, announces the results for the six-month period and quarter ended on June 30, 2024.

Pampa's financial information adopts US$ as functional currency, converted into AR$ at transactional exchange rate (‘FX'). However, our affiliates Transener and TGS's adjust their figures for inflation as of June 30, 2024, which are expressed in US$ at the period's closing FX. The previously reported figures remain unchanged.

Second quarter 2024 (‘Q2 24') main results[1]

8% year-on-year sales increase achieved in Q2 24, reaching US$500 million[2], driven by increased gas production from the latest round of Plan Gas, seasonal demand and, to a lesser extent, higher domestic reforming volumes, partially offset by lower gas sales to Chile and industries, volume sold of styrenics and Engineer Mario Cebreiro Wind Farm (‘PEMC')'s divestment.

Gas production grew by 37%, showcasing our strong operating performance:

Adjusted EBITDA[3] rose 30% to US$288 million in Q2 24, mainly explained by increases in holding and others, oil and gas and, to a lesser extent, in petrochemicals and power generation.

Net profit attributable to the Company's shareholders of US$100 million, a 39% decline from Q2 23, due to lower gains from financial securities and FX differences over the financial position in AR$, an impairment on PPE affecting Ensenada Barragán Thermal Power Plant (‘CTEB')'s equity income and a haircut on certain overdue interests from the Argentine Wholesale Electricity Market Clearing Company (CAMMESA). Higher sales and lower financial interests and income tax partially offset these variations.

Net debt decreased to US$691 million, resulting in a net leverage ratio of 1.0x, largely due to improved payment collections from CAMMESA.

[1] The information is based on financial statements (‘FS') prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS') in force in Argentina.

[2] Sales from the affiliates CTBSA, Transener and TGS are excluded, shown as ‘Results for participation in joint businesses and associates.'

[3] Consolidated adjusted EBITDA represents the flows before financial items, income tax, depreciations and amortizations, extraordinary and non-cash income and expense, equity income, and includes affiliates' EBITDA at our ownership. Further information on section 3.1.
