Photon Energy Group Generates Record July Revenues

Amsterdam 12 August 2022 Photon Energy N.V. (WSE&PSE: PEN, FSX: A1T9KW) (Photon Energy Group or the Company) announces that its 91.9 MWp proprietary portfolio of PV power plants generated its historically highest electricity revenues for the month of July. While the production volume of 14.52 GWh of electricity remained 1.3% below the June record of 14.71 GWh, it was up 22.9% YOY. Growing electricity market prices have led to electricity sales revenues of EUR 5.565 million, an increase of 27.4% compared to June (up 108% YOY).

Year-to-date the Company reports 80.5 GWh of electricity produced compared to 59.6 GWh one year ago (up 35.1% YOY). With 83% of the Companys IPP (independent power producer) portfolio selling electricity directly to the grid at market prices, the Company achieved revenues of EUR 21.301 million in the first seven months of 2022, compared to EUR 19.402 million for the full year 2021 (up 9.8% compared to full year 2021 revenues).

The increase in energy prices is underlining our decision to go merchant not only with our newly-built power plants but also to switch our existing power plants as much as possible to the merchant model. Based on this and the positive outlook for the future market, we are increasing our 2022 financial guidance for the Companys consolidated revenues from the previously communicated EUR 65 million to EUR 85 million (up 133.8% YOY) and for EBITDA from the previous EUR 18 million to EUR 24 million (up 150.4% YOY), commented Georg Hotar, CEO of Photon Energy Group.

Electricity Futures prices on the EEX for the calendar year 2023 in Hungary and Romania, two of the Companys core markets, are around EUR 450 per MWh of baseload and EUR 600 per MWh of peakload, providing an encouraging environment for the Photon Energy Groups outlook for 2023.
