The agreement, signed on 19 January and concluded on 16 April, brings a capital injection of EUR 700m. The funding will enable the company to make more long-term and value-creating decisions on investments and divestment.Record Electricity Generation: In Q1 2024, we produced 555 GWh of wind and solar power, an increase of 51% compared to Q1 2023.In Q1 2024, the development pipeline increased by 15% to 38.4 GW compared to last year, while assets under construction were stable at around 1GW.PPA from a 1.1 GW solar plant concluded with Rio Tinto in Australia.Q1 EBITDA of EUR -4m, compared to EUR 15m Q1 of last year. The decline in Q1 2024 primarily resulted from fewer sales of energy parks and slightly lower EBITDA from the sale of energy. A portfolio of larger projects is in the process of divestment, with completion primarily in the second half of the year.2024 Financial Outlook: We maintain our 2024 financial outlook of an EBITDA of EUR 230m or a growth of approximately 30%, with a risk margin of +/- 10%. Profit before tax will also grow, but at a lower growth rate than EBITDA.
