II.ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 2024 ON THE CONSOLIDATED AND SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Dear Shareholders,
Pursuant to the provisions of Law 4548/2018 and Law 3556/2007 article 4 paragraph 2c, 6, 7 and 8, of article 2 of the decisions issued thereon 8/754/14.04.2016 of the Board of Directors of the Hellenic Capital Market Commission and the Company’s Articles of Association, we are hereby submitting to you the Annual Report of the Board of Directors for the closing year from 01.01.2024 to 31.12.2024.
This report contains financial and non‐financial information regarding GEK TERNA Group, for the financial year 2024 and describes the most significant events that took place during as well as after the reporting period of the financial statements. Moreover, the report outlines the key risks and uncertainties the Group may face in 2024 and records significant transactions between the Company and its related parties.
A. Financial Developments and Performance for the Year 2024
The Greek economy has maintained its satisfactory growth rate for 2024 and at higher levels than the corresponding average of other European countries. This was achieved during a period when the global economy demonstrated resilience despite facing significant challenges, particularly at the geopolitical level with ongoing tensions in Ukraine and the Middle East.
Specifically, Greece's GDP for 2024 increased by 2.3% compared to the corresponding period of 2023, driven mainly by the rise in investments, the increase in private consumption as a result of the rise in household income and the reduction in unemployment. The momentum in tourism continued, leading to an increase in exports in the services segment, however growing domestic demand led to higher imports, with the balance remaining negative. Lastly, the restriction of public spending had a negative impact.
The harmonized inflation rate for 2024 stood at 3.0% compared to 4.2% for 2023, reduced by 1.2%, following the normalization of economic conditions which resulted in lower energy prices, the de-escalation of industrial goods and food prices, while the inflation of services remained at higher levels.
In the fiscal sector, the overperformance against targets continued as a result of the reduction in tax evasion, increased economic activity and profitability and expenditure control. According to the data from Eurostat, the primary surplus is expected to be 4.8% of GDP in 2024 (compared to 2.1% for 2023), while public debt as a percentage of GDP is also expected to decline significantly (153.8% in 2024).
Indicative of the improvement in macroeconomic conditions for the country is the fact that following the country's upgrade to investment grade in the second half of 2023 (by R&I, Scope, DBRS, S&P, and Fitch), in 2024 Scope Ratings further upgraded the Greek economy to "BBB". In the early 2025 Moody's also granted investment grade to Greece, with all rating agencies now placing the country in the investment grade while S&P upgraded the Greek economy by one additional level to "BBB”. In this context, the spread of the Greek 10-year bond against the German bond decreased to 83 basis points in December 2024 (the lowest in the last 15 years) with the yield settling at 2.97%.

Finally, it is worth mentioning the absorption of Recovery and Resilience Fund resources (which provide a significant boost to growth), with Greece continuing to maintain a leading position at the European level, having received approximately 60% (or 21.3 bn euros) of the total funds available.
For the coming years, the Greek economy is expected to remain on a positive path and continue to move at higher pace than the Eurozone. For 2025-26, GDP is expected to increase by 2.0%-2.5% according to the converging forecasts of the Bank of Greece, the European Commission and the Greek Government, compared to a rate of 1.3%-1.6% for the Eurozone. This is expected to be helped by the strong labor market, which will support consumption along with continued support from tourism, industry and construction.
A positive impact is also expected from the increasing liquidity from both the private and public sectors, which will be significantly supported by the absorption of European funds. It is worth noting that total investment expenditure from the public sector is expected to reach 6.0% of GDP for 2025-26.
In any case, external factors such as the controversial decisions announced on trade protectionism by the USA, as well as the manner in which serious geopolitical issues are being addressed by the USA, pose immediate and visible risks to European economies and the Greek economy, affecting the trajectory of growth and inflation.
Additionally, risks related to the Greek economy, such as delays in the absorption of Recovery and Resilience Fund resources due to non-fulfillment of required reforms, natural disasters and labor market tightness, may have an impact on the maintenance of a strong growth rate.
In this changing environment and geopolitical environment, GEK TERNA Group, which is one of the largest corporate groups in Greece, implements and seamlessly expands its investment plan, seeking continuous and sustainable growth, maintaining and further strengthening its strong position in its fields of activity as well as its continuous expansion in new ones. The Group is steadily strengthening its leading presence in the infrastructure, concessions and energy sectors in Greece and selectively abroad, benefiting from its strong capital structure, high level of human resources and great expertise.
A significant boost to the implementation of the Group's investment program, aiming to transform into a leading diversified Infrastructure Group in Southeastern Europe, is the agreement dated 20.06.2024 for the sale of all shares held by GEK TERNA in TERNA ENERGY I.C.S.A. (representing 36.59% of the shares and voting rights), to MASDAR HELLAS SINGLE MEMBER S.A., which is a 100% indirect subsidiary of ABU DHABI FUTURE ENERGY COMPANY PJSC – MASDAR, for an amount of 864.2 mn euros.
The above amounts are expected to significantly enhance the Group's investment strength, where, combined with its strategic positioning in the market, is expected to create even greater value for shareholders.
The main financial results of the year 2024 compared to the corresponding period of 2023, are as follows:
Turnover from third parties from continuing operations amounted to 3,249.9 mn euros, compared 3,252.3 mn euros for the corresponding period of 2023, without significant change, i.e., 2.4 mn euros, as the positive and negative changes in Turnover per activity were balanced in absolute terms.

Key Financial Performance of the Operating Segments for the financial Year 2024
The financial analysis of the operating segments mentioned below records the performance of these segments, before performing the intersegmental elimination, which are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of IFRS for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements of GEK TERNA.
Construction Operating Segment
TERNA S.A., the construction arm and 100% subsidiary of GEK TERNA, is the largest construction company, specializing in complex and demanding infrastructure projects, which international groups choose to collaborate with due to its experience both within and outside Greece. TERNA S.A. also generates significant synergies with the other segments of the Group, particularly in concessions and energy.
Revenues from construction activities continue to be at very high levels, while the backlog of construction work continues to show an upward trend, amounting to approximately 4.1 bn euros as of 31.12.2024. Furthermore, the Group expects to sign new project contracts for which it has been selected as the Contractor, amounting to approximately 2.8 bn euros, which is a mix of private, co-financed, and public projects.
Turnover of the Construction Segment amounted to 1,321.5 mn euros compared to 1,365.3 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2023, posting a decrease of 3.2%. The decrease in Turnover is temporary, due to delays in approvals from various Greek public authorities.
Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA plus non-cash results included therein) amounted to 129.6 mn euros compared to 132.8 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2023, reduced by 2.4%, recording an insignificant decrease.
Operating Results before interest and taxes (EBIT) amounted to 100.1 mn euros compared to 115.2 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2023, posting a decrease of 13.1%, which is mainly due to the Construction Segment that was fully transferred to the Group, in the context of the sale of TERNA ENERGY.
Earnings before taxes amounted to 90.9 mn euros in 2024 compared to 106.0 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2023. The difference of 14.2% is due to the aforementioned reasons.
Earnings after taxes amounted to 60.3 mn euros in 2024 compared to 75.2 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2023. The difference of 19.8% is due to the aforementioned reasons.
Turnover of the Construction Segment to third parties comes from activities: a) in Greece and Cyprus at a rate of 97% and b) in Balkan countries at a rate of 3%.

D. Risk Factors and Uncertainties
The Group's operations are subject to various risks and uncertainties, such as the return of macroeconomic uncertainty, market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, wind and weather conditions, the uncertainty of the results from the impact of emergency events which may have a prolonged and unforeseen term.
1)Financial Risks
The Group's activities expose it to various financial risks, including market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, and price fluctuation risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
In order to address financial risks and to limit their negative impact on its financial results, the Group has a management plan that aims to limit the adverse impact on its financial results that may arise from the inability to project financial markets and the fluctuations in cost and sales variables that affect financial results.
The financial instruments used by the Group mainly comprise bank deposits, mainly long‐term and secondarily short‐term loans as well as derivatives, trade debtors and creditors, other accounts receivable and payable. The impact of the main risks and uncertainties on the Group's activities is analyzed below.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)

Credit risk
Credit risk entails the possibility that a counterparty will cause financial loss to the Group and the Company due to the breach of the counterparty’s contractual obligations.
The Group continuously monitors its receivables, either separately or per group and encompasses all the arising information into the credit audit. When deemed necessary, external reports or analyses related to effective or potential clients are used.
The Group is not exposed to significant credit risk arising from trade receivables with regard to its business activities, except for the trading of electric energy. This is attributed, on the one hand, to the Group’s policy, which is focused on cooperation with reliable clients and, on the other hand, to the nature of the Group’s operations.
In particular, total receivables, whether related to the narrow or the broader public sector, or private sector clients with significant financial position in Greece and abroad, are under special monitoring and the Management constantly assesses the reliability of its customers, their financial sizes regardless of whether they are a broader public or private entity, for potential implications, in order to take the necessary measures to minimize any adverse effects for the Group.
The Group is exposed to credit risk from end consumers due to the sale of electricity and natural gas to them. The control carried out to ensure the collectability of receivables is systematic. Wherever required, apart from the above, and in addition to safeguarding collectability, for low voltage consumers the Group makes sure to issue monthly bills concerning the probable consumption per month, so that with the issuance of the settlement invoice that is being made in the fourth month of consumption, there is no large outstanding balance to be settled. It should be noted that at the start of cooperation with customers, an amount equal to the indicative cost of consumption for one month is paid by the customers in the form of a guarantee. The risk of large sales contracts with a time horizon of more than one month is secured through forward contracts for the purchase and sale of electricity and natural gas, thus minimizing the risk of fluctuations in the purchase and sale of electricity.
The existing experience in handling the trading of electricity and natural gas ensures the Group's positive prospects for the operational segment of Electricity Production from Thermal Energy Sources.
The credit risk regarding cash and cash available and other receivables is considered limited given that the counterparties are reliable Banks with high quality capital structure, the Greek State and the broader public sector and strong groups of companies.
The Management assumes that all the financial assets, for which necessary impairment is calculated, are of high credit quality.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk entails the risk that the Group or the Company will be in no position to meet their financial obligations when required. The Group maintains its liquidity risk at a low level.
Specifically, the Group’s liquidity, in particular, is considered satisfactory, as in addition to the existing cash and cash equivalents, the cash flows generated from the execution of projects, from the Concession Companies of Motorways, waste management, as well as the production and sale of electricity, are continuous.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)

The Group manages liquidity needs by closely monitoring the progress of long‐term financial obligations, as well as the payments made daily. Liquidity needs are monitored in different time zones, on a daily and weekly basis as well as in a rolling period of 30 days. Liquidity needs for the next 6 months and next year are determined on a monthly basis.
The Group maintains cash and cash available in banks to meet liquidity needs for periods of up to 30 days. The funds for the medium‐term liquidity needs are released from the Group's time deposits and if deemed necessary, bank credits are also being used.
Market risk analysis
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk arises when the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument are subject to fluctuations due to changes in exchange rates. This type of risk may arise, for the Group, from foreign exchange differences at the valuation and conversion into the Group’s currency (Euro) of financial assets, mainly financial receivables, and financial liabilities, related to transactions that are carried out in a currency other than the operating currency of the Group’s entities. The transactions mainly concern purchases of fixed assets and inventories, commercial sales, investments in financial assets, loans, as well as net investments in foreign operations.
The Group operates mainly in the Greek and Balkan regions in selective undertaking of construction projects, and therefore may be exposed to foreign exchange risk that may arise from Euro exchange rate with other currencies. To manage this risk category, the Group’s Financial Management Department uses the financial instruments and offset the Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk on the basis of specific policies, whenever it is necessary. The completion of the Transaction will reduce the Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk.
Regarding the Group's transactions with foreign companies, these are usually carried out with European Groups where the settlement currency is the euro. To reduce this risk, the Group utilizes the locally produced cash available in local currency to pay the expenses incurred, as well as the forward purchase of foreign exchange, thus minimizing the creation of foreign exchange risk.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk entails the probability that fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates.
The Group's policy is to minimize its exposure to the interest rate risk of long‐term financing. Under this policy, medium‐term loans are mainly in Euro, with fixed spread and a floating base interest rate linked to Euribor. In order to reduce the interest rate risk associated with long‐term financing and to reduce the consequent volatility of financial expenses, the Group implements specific policies that include Interest Rates Swaps.
The largest component of the Group's short‐term debt is in Euro at a floating base interest rate linked to Euribor. Short‐term loans are mainly issued as a bridge financing in order to cover temporary needs during the implementation phase - construction of investments of the Group. The Group's policy is to convert these loans into long‐ term fixed spreads linked to Euribor and, where deemed necessary due

On 31.12.2024, 19% of the Group’s total debt bares fixed interest rate, 71.4% bares floating interest rate that have been offset through derivatives, with which future fixed interest rate payments are exchanged against floating rate based receivables, while 9.6% of the Group’s loans bare floating rate based on the Euribor.
These loans are repaid through the operating cash flows from the Group's operations.
Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk
The following table presents the sensitivity of profit or loss for the period against the Groups short‐ term debt and deposits, towards a change in variable interest rates amounting to +20% –20% (2023: +/-20%). The changes in interest rates are estimated to be logical in relation to the current market conditions and until now they have been consistent with the previous year.

2)Risks arising from existing financial conditions prevailing in Greece and from the global economy
In 2024, the Greek economy continued its growth trajectory, having increased its GDP by 2.3%, driven mainly by the increase in investments, the rise in private consumption as a result of increased household income, as well as the reduction in unemployment. The momentum in tourism continued, leading to an increase in exports in the services segment; however, the rising domestic demand led to higher imports, with the balance remaining negative. It is noted that the Greek economy moved at a pace higher than the European Union.
To date, with the current estimates of the continuation of the energy crisis with reduced intensity in terms of duration, but with increased intensity of hostilities in Ukraine and the Middle East, as well as with the contradictory solutions proposed by the U.S., a likely resolution does not appear imminent.
At the same time, with the indicative decisions for tariff impositions by the U.S.A., for each individual country, have created negative conditions in the global economy and by extension in the Greek economy, should they ultimately be enforced.
The harmonized inflation rate for 2024 stood at 3.0%, with no further reduction in sight due to increased rental prices, food items and extraordinary events (e.g., severe weather, etc.) that create supply issues for goods and services.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
36
At the same time, at the Eurozone level, decisions on tariffs and the armament of each member state with weapon systems, following the decisions of the USA, will result in a reduction of the disposable incomes of its residents.
With regard to the Greek economy, apart from the above, there are additional causes of uncertainty that need to be resolved to positively contribute to achieving the objective of further growth of the Greek economy, which are mentioned below:
Strengthening competitiveness, so that the economy becomes export-oriented and addresses the current account deficit.
Accelerating the reduction of the public debt ratio.
Reducing high bank lending rates, which leads borrowers to face difficulties in repaying installments of their mortgage loans for the first residence and the agricultural land.
Stabilizing the prices of consumer goods, which reduces the real disposable income and household purchasing power and deprives the ability to create savings for future investment.
Increasing disposable income for citizens through real wage increases.
Utilizing Recovery Fund resources by executing projects and reforms undertaken by the Government.
Reforming the justice system to reduce the time for issuing decisions
Overcoming bureaucratic issues in Public Administration to become more functional and capable of making necessary plans, including for emergency situations (natural disasters, fires, climate changes).
Despite the new conditions that have arisen due to the geopolitical developments, the contradictory decisions of the United States on the major problems (Ukraine, Middle East, equipment) and inflationary pressures, and given that the Group does not have any meaningful activity in Russia, Ukraine and the Middle East, the outlook for the Group remains positive in the medium term and long term due to the following factors: a) The occupied investment - even without the full upgrade by a specific rating agency, regarding the creditworthiness of the Greek economy, which entails more inflows of investment capital with favorable lending terms required for investments, b) Investments with long-term yields in the form of Concessions and PPPs, c) Significant signed and pending construction contracts for execution, d) The increase in the share of electricity generated in the Greek economy using natural gas as fuel, as well as the market share in electricity trading and e) the increase in energy storage capacity.
3)Other Risks and Uncertainties
Backlog of the construction contracts
The backlog of the construction contracts does not necessarily constitute an indication of future revenues from the Group's operations in this segment. Although the backlog of these contracts represents projects that are considered certain, no guarantee can be given that cancellations or adjustments will not be performed.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
37
The backlog of the Group's construction contracts may fluctuate in connection with the delays in the project’s implementation and/or receivables or inability to fulfill contractual obligations.
Climate change risk
The increase in the average temperature of the planet has caused a series of extreme natural phenomena (disastrous floods, extreme natural phenomena, but also large-scale wildfires from prolonged drought, as well as damage to the primary food production sector).
The risks arising from the effects of climate change and the transition to a low-carbon economy are expected to affect most, if not all, business entities in matters related to their sustainability.
The Group owns and operates in Greece three major highways and has signed contracts for two other highways which it will operate in the future, where the effects of climate change in recent years consist of intense weather phenomena and long-term natural turnarounds.
Taking into account the extreme natural phenomena that have occurred in recent years, the Group takes all necessary measures to eliminate or minimize the problems that may arise, in addition to insurance coverage for the risks that are insurable.
Cyber Security risk
Potential violations in the security of networks, information and operating systems threaten the integrity of the Group's data, sensitive information, as well as the smooth operation of its business activities. Such a breach could adversely affect the Group's reputation and competitive position. Also, a possible occurrence of damages, release of fines or loss of business (including restoration costs) could have a significant negative impact on our financial position and operating results. In addition, managing cybersecurity breaches may require a significant investment of time by the management.
In order to avoid the Cyber Security risks, GEK TERNA Group has established and implements Cyber Security Policies and Procedures, with which all the executives and the external collaborators of the Group must comply. In cases where it is deemed necessary, the IT Department provides additional instructions and guidance.
The Group is in continuous cooperation with companies providing specialized Cybersecurity services, as well as with experienced consultants in the field, in order to provide full technical and organizational coverage in the field of Cybersecurity.
E. Outlook and Prospects
GEK TERNA the parent company of the Group (www.gekterna.com) is listed on Athens Stock Exchange (FTSE / Athex Large Cap / Athex ESG) and comprises one of the largest business groups in Greece, with selective presence in Central and Southeastern Europe as well as in Middle East.
GEK TERNA Group with a Turnover of 3,249.9 mn euros is active in the following segments:
a) infrastructure, b) the production of electricity with natural gas fuel and the trade of electricity and natural gas, c) the construction and operation of the Concessions, as well as the construction and joint operation co-financed projects (PPPs) and waste management projects, d) real estate management and sale of properties and e) mining activities.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)

GEK TERNA Group in the field of construction activities has a backlog of works to third parties, which on 31.12.2024 amounted to 4.1 bn euros proximately. Furthermore, the Group expects to sign contracts for new projects for which it has been prequalified, amounting to 2.8 bn euros, of which 1 bn euros concern the execution of public projects, 1 bn euros concern the execution of private projects and 0,8 bn euros concern projects related to Group investments (such as Egnatia, IRC Hellinikon, etc.). Through its subsidiary TERNA, the Group also carries out targeted acquisitions of companies as part of its strategy to strengthen and further specialize its construction activities.
In the field of energy production using natural gas as fuel, the Group owns and operates one (1) unit with a total installed capacity of 435 MW, while it participates in the construction and is expected to operate one (1) unit of 877 MW at the end of the first half of 2025, with a 50% stake. In the electricity supply sector, the Group holds a market share of 11.4% in the Greek market, while at the same time, it engages in electricity trading both domestically and internationally.
In the field of Concessions, the Group continues to implement its strategic plan through new significant investments in 2024. Specifically, the acquisition of the right to operate the Motorway Concession of NEA ATTIKI ODOS CONCESSION SOCIETE ANONYME, the additional 3.48% stake acquired in the Motorway Concession OLYMPIA ODOS CONCESSION SOCIETE ANONYME and the acquisition of an additional 55% stake in the company SARISA SUB-CONCESSION S.A. confirm the Group Management's commitment to the importance of the Concessions sector within its development strategy.
Furthermore, these transactions reinforce the Group’s growth plan through the acquisition of companies such as AEIFORIKI EPIRUS M.A.E.E.S., which operates the Waste Treatment Plant of Epirus, PERIVALLONTIKI PELOPONNISOU S.M.S.A. which is implementing the PPP project "INTEGRATED WASTE MANAGEMENT OF PELOPONNESE REGION", 35% in the Societe Anonyme company HELLAS SMARTICKET S.A. for the provision of electronic ticketing services, 70% in the joint venture TERNA ENERGY INDIGITAL AMCO for the project " DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION, TELEMATICS AND THE UNIFIED AUTOMATED COLLECTION SYSTEM FOR THESSALONIKI (ACST)", in the context of the TERNA ENERGY sale transaction concerning the transfer of Non-Core Assets.
Finally, the Group is active in the management and sale of real estate, owning commercial properties with a total estimated value of approximately 130 mn euros, as well as in the field of industry/quarry through the extraction and processing of magnesite, as well as the production of aggregates.
For its existing activities in 2024, the Group employed more than 5,419 employees on international level.
The total investments in the current period amounted to 3.4 bn euros, with the main recipient being the concessions sector. In recent years, investments have exceeded 6.2 bn euros, actively supporting the Greek economy, but also the country's banking system, constantly maintaining all the Group's assets from operations in Greece in Greek banks.
Despite the prevailing uncertainties in the global economy due to geopolitical developments and the contradictory decisions by the U.S. regarding the imposition of tariffs, the outlook for the Greek economy remains positive in the medium term, in view of a number of conditions that could facilitate the change in the pattern of economic growth, which is expected in turn to derive from investment spending to an even greater extent.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
39
In this changing economic and geopolitical environment, GEK TERNA Group, which is one of the most important Greek corporate groups and holds a leading position in the fields of infrastructure, clean energy, electricity production and concessions, implements and expands its investment plan (mainly in the segments of Concessions Self/Co-financed projects and Infrastructure), as its capital structure remains strong while the Group continues to have a selective presence in countries outside Greece. Furthermore, the Group has practically demonstrated during the last years its ability to expand and further solidify its market position.
It is worth noting, however, that the boost of investment activity in the segments in which GEK TERNA Group operates (such as in RES, Concessions, Constructions and Infrastructure) constitute a priority for both the Greek State and the European Union. Infrastructure projects, through their higher multiplier effect, contribute significantly to the increase in GDP and to the strengthening of employment.
In 2025, GEK TERNA Group will continue to implement its strategy for continuous development in the Greek and international markets in the fields of infrastructure, production, supply and trading of electricity and natural gas, in the concessions segment and in the construction segment. The objective is to maintain its leading position in the Greek market and to pursue its sustainable development in the international markets, in order to achieve a satisfactory diversification of corporate risk and to maintain return on equity at satisfactory levels.
The Group's investment plan continues intensively in all areas of its activity (infrastructure, concessions - PPPs, energy production and storage, circular economy - environmental projects), with the total investments planned or in which the Group participates, in the medium term, expected to exceed the value of 10 bn euros.
With the investments that are in progress and those that will follow, GEK TERNA Group creates thousands of well-paid jobs, giving the opportunity to the Greek scientific workforce, to our young men and women to live with dignity and optimism for the future in their homeland, but also to those who left we provide the incentive to gradually return back to the country.
The prospects for achieving the targets of 2025 and beyond are positive, given that:
In the Construction Operating Segment:
TERNA S.A., the construction arm and 100% subsidiary of GEK TERNA, is the largest construction company in Greece in executing a wide range of large and complex public and private projects, of high budgets and complex know‐how, such as construction of motorways and rail networks, buildings, hospitals, museums, industrial facilities, hydroelectric projects, dams, power plants, etc.
The prospects for the coming years are in favor of improving the financial performance of this operating segment, while the backlog of construction work is maintained at high levels, amounting to 4.1 bn euros on 31.12.2024 with third-party contracts. The above backlog does not include approximately 2.8 bn euros in new construction contracts for projects where the Group has already been declared the contractor or preferred investor and is awaiting their signing.
In addition, the prospects of the construction sector in Greece are particularly positive, as in the coming years the budget of the new projects expected to be auctioned will exceed the level of 8-10 bn euros, of which a significant part is estimated to be executed by the Group.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
40
It should be noted that the execution of the above projects will deliver significant positive multiplier results to the Greek Economy.
The Group, with the consistency and the high sense of corporate social responsibility that distinguishes its actions for years now, will remain a leader in the construction sector and will seek to increase the financial size of the particular market segment, while generating satisfactory earnings to the benefit of its shareholders.
Operational Segment of Production & Trading of Electricity from Thermal Energy Sources
The GEK TERNA Group is active in the Production, Supply and Trading of Electricity and Natural Gas, mainly through its subsidiary HERON ENERGY S.A., where it is the sole 100% shareholder. Its vertical presence is a key factor in mitigating market-related risks, while at the same time enabling it to take advantage of opportunities that arise at various levels. At the same time, it seeks new opportunities to increase or diversify its production capacity in Greece or abroad.
In the Electricity Production Sector, the Group participates in the market through its combined cycle gas turbine power plant with an installed capacity of 435 MW.
Furthermore, the GEK TERNA Group and the MOTOR OIL Group continue the joint development, construction, and operation of the new state-of-the-art Combined Cycle Gas Turbine Station with a fuel capacity of 877 MW in the Komotini Industrial Area, through the company THERMOELECTRIC KOMOTINIS S.A., with each holding a 50% stake.
At the same time, GEK TERNA Group and MOTOR OIL Group, through their participation in the company KOMOTINI THERMOELECTRIC S.A. (with a percentage of 50% each), continue the joint development, construction, and operation of the new state-of-the-art Combined Cycle Gas Turbine Station with natural gas as fuel aiming at an installed gross capacity of 877 MW in the Industrial Area of Komotini, Greece.
The technology of the main equipment that has been selected for the Station is the most modern one and will lead to very high degrees of overall net efficiency. The amount of the investment is estimated at approximately 375 mn euros and has created around 500 jobs during the construction period and about 80 jobs during the operating period. Construction of the new unit has been completed, with the trial operation period soon to be concluded. The station is expected to commence commercial operation by the end of the first half of 2025.
The Group, through its subsidiary HERON ENERGY S.A., utilizing its know-how in energy production from the operation of factories via the use of natural gas, continues to operate the production units, based on the principle of cost benefit from this activity.
In the area of Electricity Distribution to final consumers, the stabilization of electricity and natural gas prices in 2024 has helped HERON ENERGY S.A. to consolidate its already strong position among independent suppliers. Amidst strong competition, HERON ENERGY S.A. managed to fully cope with the difficult market conditions, even increasing its market share to 11.4% compared to 2023, resulting in it continuing to be among the top two independent suppliers in the domestic market.
It should be noted that the risk of large sales contracts with a time horizon of more than one month is ensured through future contracts for the purchase and sale of electricity and natural gas, in order to minimize the risk of changes in the cost of buying and selling energy. The existing experience in
GEK TERNA GROUP

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
41
handling electricity and gas trading ensures the Group's positive outlook for the operating segment of Electricity Production from Thermal Energy Sources.

The total portfolio of motorway projects of GEK TERNA Group after the start of the operation of EGNATIA ODOS, including the concessions of the NRAC and ATTIKI ODOS, now exceeds 1,800 km. This is the largest motorway portfolio in the country and one of the largest in Europe, further enhancing the Group's ability to generate significant, stable and recurring returns over time.
Finally, the Group's business activity in the Car Parking Station Management and Operation Segment will continue in the following years, and the number of car parking spaces attributed to the Group as a whole amounts to 2,171.
Apart from the above, at the same time the Management continues to pursue new investments for the expansion of the Group's business activity in Greece and abroad, by constantly monitoring the developments in the Greek economy, collaborating with financial agents and expert analysts of the international markets.
The Group confirms its strategic decision to invest dynamically in the Concessions segment and in the fields of PPPs, while creating satisfactory earnings and returns for its shareholders.
Taking into consideration the above, the prospects of the concessions segment of GEK TERNA Group for the year 2025 and for the following years are positive, despite the difficult period that the global economy is going through.

(via mining licenses and concessions it holds), is active in the extraction and processing of magnesite, as well as its industrial processing for the production of caustic and refractory magnesia products of various qualities and chemical characteristics. Following the actions undertaken during the last two months of 2024, the Group is in continuous evaluation of how and to what extent it can best leverage the investments it has made to date in this particular operational sector.
F. Alternative Performance Measurement Indicators (“APMI”)
(In the context of applying the Guidelines “Alternative Performance Measures” of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA/2015/1415el) which are applied from 3rd of July 2016 in the Alternative Performance Measures Indicators [APMI])
The Group utilizes Alternative Performance Measurement Indicators ("APMI") in its financial, operational, and strategic planning decisions, as well as in evaluating and publishing its performance. These APMI serves to better understand the Group’s financial and operating results as well as its financial position. Alternative indicators should always be considered in conjunction with the financial results prepared in accordance with IFRSs and in no case should they replace them.
The following indicators are used when describing the Group's performance by segment:
A. ‘’Net Debt/(Surplus)’’
It is a ratio, through which the Group’s Management assesses the cash position of an operating segment at any given time. The ratio is defined as total loan liabilities and bank leases less cash and

H. Sustainability Statement
1.General Disclosures
1.1Basis for preparation
1.1.1General basis for preparation of sustainability statements [ΒP-1]
The Sustainability Statement for the fiscal year 2024 has been prepared on a consolidated basis for GEK TERNA Group, with the scope of consolidation aligning with the scope of the financial statements. The subsidiaries included in the consolidation are exempt from the individual sustainability statement according to Articles 19a(9) and 29a(8) of Directive 2013/34/EU, as no subsidiary is exempt from consolidated sustainability reporting1.
To ensure alignment with the requirements of the ESRS standards, the sustainability statement includes information from the value chain (upstream and downstream) and all activities of the Group's operating sectors, as mentioned in the relevant chapter of the financial statements. Additionally, policies, actions, and goals extend to both upstream and downstream value chain. Finally, when disclosing quantitative data, the Group considers information from the upstream and downstream value chain, provided it is feasible based on the availability of data directly from the value chain participants. If direct data is not available, the information is based on estimates or approximations.
In preparing this statement, the option to omit any relevant information pertaining to intellectual property, know-how, or innovation results in accordance with ESRS 1, section 7.7 has been utilized. GEK TERNA Group, based in Greece, an EU member state, utilizes the option to exempt from disclosing future developments or matters under negotiation, as specified in Articles 19 and 29 of Directive 2013/34/EU.
The Sustainability Statement provides a detailed description of the Group's approach to issues considered significant, based on the results of the Double Materiality Assessment, which is aligned with ESRS standards.
1.1.2Disclosures in relation to specific circumstances [BP-2]
Time horizons
GEK TERNA Group utilizes the following time periods, as defined in section 6.4 Definition of short-term, medium-term, and long-term periods for reporting purposes, specifically:

Value chain estimation, sources of estimation and outcome uncertainty
The table below presents the indicators that were calculated based on data from the upstream and/or downstream value chain, estimated using indirect sources. The indicators, the basis for their preparation, the level of accuracy, and the planned actions to improve accuracy in the future are described below:

Topic

Indicator

Basis for preparation

Resulting level of accuracy

Planned actions to improve the accuracy in the future

 

ESRS E1 – Climate Change

Gross Scope 3 Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Spend-based method

In calculating Scope 3 emissions, certain factors may lead to uncertainty in the results. The absence of primary data in various Scope 3 categories, due to its unavailability, means that calculations often depend heavily on secondary data and emission factors from general sources. This reliance can lead to discrepancies between actual emissions and the estimated figures recorded.

Supplier awareness and education for using supplier-specific activity data

For cases where measurements include data from the upstream and/or downstream value chain estimated using indirect sources, this is noted in the relevant section. The description covers the defined measurements, the basis for preparation, and the outcomes concerning accuracy levels.
Regarding the sources used for these estimates and the associated uncertainty, the Group specifies the assumptions made and provides information about the sources of uncertainty for the relevant quantitative measurements and/or monetary amounts.
Changes in the preparation or presentation of sustainability information
The current Sustainability Statement marks the first publication of sustainability information by GEK TERNA Group, in alignment with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), as mandated by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and Law 5164/2024. As this marks the Group's initial disclosure under the CSRD legislation, and in line with the transitional provisions for the first year of reporting, comparative data or changes from previous years are not included.
Disclosures resulting from other legislation or generally accepted sustainability reporting statements
The statement includes information from additional reporting standards, specifically the GRI Standards. Appropriate referencing of the relevant reports has been incorporated into the respective paragraphs.
Integration of information through referencing
To meet the requirements, information has been integrated by reference, which is summarized in the following list of ESRS requirements.

Experience, knowledge, and skills
The Board of Directors and the ESG Committee consist of members who have the essential skills and specialized knowledge needed to manage sustainability issues effectively. This ensures they can supervise and guide the Group's sustainability strategy proficiently. Members are assessed and selected based on their expertise in areas like environmental management, social responsibility, and corporate governance, as well as their capacity to incorporate ESG principles into business decision-making.
The Suitability Policy ensures that the Board of Directors has the necessary collective expertise to meet both medium-term and long-term sustainability objectives while also advancing the Group's strategic growth. Each Board member must adhere to defined individual and collective suitability standards. Moreover, the training policy for Board members and executives guarantees ongoing education for senior management and the ESG Committee on issues related to environmental, social, and governance matters.
Roles and responsibilities of relevant bodies/representatives regarding sustainability issues
To ensure an organized and standardized oversight process, a comprehensive governance framework has been developed. This framework includes clearly defined procedures, policies, and monitoring tools, as well as regular reports to the Board of Directors. The responsibilities and duties of each body or individual regarding sustainability related impacts, risks, and opportunities are documented in relevant policies. These include the Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) Policy, the Code of Ethics and Conduct, and the Internal Rules of Operations.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors (BoD) plays a crucial role in overseeing the ESG strategy, setting goals related to significant impacts, risks, and opportunities through the analysis of the internal and external environment. The BoD ensures the allocation of necessary resources, including human, financial, and technological resources, and approves appropriate actions to achieve the Group’s goals. The Group's progress towards its goals is monitored through regular reports and audits, allowing the BoD to make revisions when deemed necessary. This ensures alignment with strategic priorities and adjustments to the changing conditions of the business environment.
ESG Committee
The ESG Committee is responsible for monitoring the Group's performance in Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance issues and submitting proposals for improvement actions, aiming to create long-term value. The Committee's role includes overseeing processes related to identifying impacts, risks, and opportunities associated with sustainability (Double Materiality Analysis) and integrating non-financial factors into the Group's strategy and business decisions by informing the Board and supporting its decision-making process. This approach ensures the Group's resilience and its ability to adapt to changes in the business environment.
Additionally, the Committee closely monitors the progress of the goals and actions outlined in the Group's ESG policy and strategy. Finally, the ESG Committee oversees the preparation of the sustainability report to ensure the Group aligns with all legislative and regulatory requirements.

Furthermore, the Department collaborates closely with other departments and divisions within the Group, as well as with external stakeholders and local communities, to ensure that the actions implemented are effective and aligned with the Group's overall sustainable development and social responsibility goals. The reporting line to the ESG Committee and the Board of Directors ensures that there is frequent and timely communication on sustainable development issues.

In the process of identifying and overseeing risks, the Risk Management Officer also participates by assessing, monitoring, and managing potential risks that could affect the smooth operation of the business. There is close collaboration with all the Group's divisions, such as the Finance Division, the Health, Safety, and Environment Division, the Technical Office, and the Human Resources Division, to ensure that all potential risks are identified in a timely manner and addressed effectively. Environmental controls and due diligence analyses for managing and overseeing impacts, risks, and opportunities are embedded within the Group's internal operations, ensuring the resilience of the business model.
Additionally, a comprehensive risk management and an internal control system has been developed, covering all critical areas and designed to enhance the Group’s resilience and transparency. The system is based on structured processes, such as the Code of Ethics, the Internal Rules of Operation, and the principle of dual signatures. The system also includes due diligence actions during the selection of partners and regular audits by the relevant units. Risks are assessed based on probability and severity, and preventive measures are applied to mitigate them. The results are documented in reports that inform stakeholders and support decision-making, while improvement suggestions are incorporated into the Group's strategic plans. These reports are periodically presented to the Board of Directors and the relevant Committees.
1.2.2Information provided to and sustainability matters addressed by the undertaking’s administrative, management and supervisory bodies [GOV-2]
The Board members and the ESG Committee receive updates from the CSR & Sustainable Development Department on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if needed, regarding emerging issues regarding Sustainable Development and the effective implementation of related policies and actions. The ESG Committee ensures these topics align with the Group's strategy. In this context, meetings are held with relevant stakeholders to enhance the supervision of strategy implementation and the decision-making process. This approach ensures that decisions are well-informed and aligned with the Group's strategic objectives, considering potential long-term impacts and the dynamics of the external environment.
The Board members utilize the data derived from the identification of impacts, risks, and opportunities to more effectively oversee the organization's strategy. During the decision-making process, the Board thoroughly evaluates the received reports, and the information collected from meetings, using this

data to address current and future challenges and opportunities, considering both external and internal factors that affect the business model.
The Board and the ESG Committee establish the Group’s goals which ensure performance monitoring through a system for collecting and analyzing key performance indicators (KPIs). The results are periodically presented by the Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainable Development Department.

During the reporting period, the Board and the ESG Committee approved the Group’s material impacts, risks, and opportunities, as identified by the Double Materiality Analysis.
1.2.3Integration of sustainability-related performance in incentive schemes [GOV-3]
GEK TERNA Group strategically integrates sustainability performance into its incentive system to ensure that individual and team objectives align with the organization's overall Sustainable Development goals, thereby strengthening employee commitment to generating long-term value.
The Remuneration Policy specifies that the provision of short-term variable compensation (Bonus) is tied to achieving specific targets in areas related to Sustainable Development, such as environmental impact (e.g., reduction of emissions) or people management and working conditions (e.g., number and severity of accidents, etc.). The targets are established through specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that relate to the values and strategic priorities of the Group and are determined o by the Board of Directors.
These indicators are reviewed by the Remuneration Committee and approved by the General Assembly, as part of the existing Remuneration Policy. Decisions regarding the terms of incentive systems are approved and revised at the Board level with the endorsement of the General Assembly. Our compliance with disclosure requirements aligns with the remuneration report described in Articles 9a and 9b of the Directive 2007/36/EC on the exercise of certain rights of shareholders in listed companies.
This incentive system applies to Board members and senior management executives who are not members of the Board (Directors, Top Management Executives (TME)).

The Group has established a comprehensive framework for identifying, assessing, and managing risks associated with sustainability reporting, by conducting regular evaluations to identify potential challenges that could affect data quality and integrity.

Personal communication

By utilizing the abovementioned communication channels, the Group ensures that the corporate strategy and business model meet the needs of stakeholders, promoting transparency, collaboration, and social responsibility. Throughout the due diligence process, stakeholders' viewpoints are acknowledged, and the Group's expectations are conveyed to stakeholders via ongoing communication and the establishment of contract terms.
Simultaneously, communication with stakeholders is crucial for the Double Materiality Analysis, as it allows the organization to better understand their expectations, needs, and concerns. This is a key element in identifying issues that are important both to the organization and the stakeholders, fostering transparency and trust among them. Feedback from stakeholders is considered to enhance sustainability initiatives and increase transparency in reporting, as well as to develop policies that align with stakeholder interests and regulatory standards.
The Group's governing bodies, including administrative, management, and supervisory entities, are regularly informed about stakeholder opinions through structured communication channels, assessments, and feedback mechanisms. Meetings are also held with relevant departments to present the results of interactions with stakeholders.
Specifically, the CSR & Sustainable Development Department presents the findings from the collection and processing of questionnaires during the Double Materiality process to the ESG Committee, which in turn informs the Board of Directors. Additionally, the Regulatory Compliance Unit provides regular updates on an annual basis and at least once a year, with further reports made when specific issues or concerns from stakeholders arise. Furthermore, the General Communication and Sustainable Development Division updates the ESG Committee, especially during public consultations, thus providing a comprehensive view of stakeholder opinions. In this way, the ESG Committee and the Board of Directors ensure that their decisions consider the views and needs of stakeholders, promoting transparency and inclusiveness in the decision-making process.

1.4Impact, risk and opportunity management
1.4.1Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities [IRO-1]
GEK TERNA Group consistently aims at creating value for all stakeholders and the broader society. Through the Double Materiality analysis, the Group aims to recognize the impact of its business activities on the environment, society, and the economy. At the same time it proactively identifies and addresses external risks and opportunities impacting its business to enhance resilience and ensure smooth operation.
In 2024, the Group conducted a Double Materiality analysis in accordance with the CSRD and ESRS requirements to include the Group’s subsidiaries. The analysis follows a structured approach, enabling the Group to gain a deep understanding of both internal operations and their broader impact on society and the environment. According to ESRS specifications, the analysis incorporates both dimensions of double materiality—impact materiality and financial materiality—recognizing their interconnections and the need to consider the interdependencies between these two dimensions.
The process followed, is divided into four distinct phases aimed at identifying, assessing, prioritizing, and monitoring both negative and positive, potential or actual impacts on people and the environment, as well as risks and opportunities that may have a financial impact on the Group. This detailed process considers the impacts for which the Group is directly responsible through its own operations, as well as the effects arising from its business relationships throughout the value chain.
As part of identifying significant activities, the process documented the corresponding dependencies on resources, including natural, human, and social resources, to understand their potential interconnections in terms of availability, cost, and quality, and how these elements might influence business operations.
Phase 1: Understanding the business model, value chain, and related activities
This phase involves the identification of value chain activities and internal operations for each business segment as defined by IFRS 8. Additionally, the mapping of the value chain was conducted by identifying key business activities, relationships, and involved parties, encompassing both upstream and downstream activities, as well as internal operations, to serve as a starting point for identifying potentially relevant material issues.
Upstream Value Chain
In mapping the upstream value chain, GEK TERNA Group has identified the key activities and entities supporting its operations. This part of the value chain includes suppliers and stakeholders who provide essential inputs— both material and financial- necessary for the Group’s smooth business operation. Due to the complexity of the Group's operations, the analysis focuses on Tier-1 suppliers. These suppliers are recognized as having the most direct impact on the Group's operations by providing capital, critical goods, and services. Consequently, for each business sector, the most significant supplier segments that directly influence its operation have been identified to map the upstream value chain.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
83
Downstream Value Chain
The entities in the downstream value chain, such as customers and waste management companies, receive or use the Group's products or services. The Group has defined the boundaries of its downstream value chain to include its direct business relationships, such as immediate customers, but does not extend to the stakeholders of its customers.
Thus, for each business sector, the most significant direct business relationships and sectors have been identified to map the downstream value chain.
Own Operations
The financial statements' consolidation approach establishes the baseline for identifying the Group's own operations. This scope is defined by the Group's ability to exercise control; all controlled activities are included.
Investments, including joint ventures that are not consolidated but where the Group has significant influence, are considered significant business relationships. In own operations, the Group includes all activities necessary for the provision and/or support of services and products to customers, specifically including:
Own workforce and facilities
Operational sites
Core activities (per business sector)
To establish the basis for all potentially material ESRS topics and sub-topics relevant to the Group’s activities, a detailed analysis was conducted using information from the following sources:
GEK TERNA Group's 2023 Sustainable Development Report
ESG rating agencies, industry standards, and EFRAG guidance reports
Sustainability reports of organizations in the same field (peer companies)
Each of these sources highlights key sustainability issues as per each sector appearing in the Group's value chain. These issues are then mapped to the most relevant ESRS sub-topics, ensuring that the mapping is accurate and pertinent. Regarding peer benchmarking, the Group has utilized the most recent publicly available sustainability reports from organizations operating in similar sectors, both nationally and internationally, to ensure a representative sample. Additionally, GEK TERNA Group has identified and examined entity-specific topics as potentially material, given the absence of specific sectoral ESRS topics. This review allows the identification of sustainability topics relevant to the Group's sectors, operations, and value chain, serving as a starting point for identifying related impacts, risks, and opportunities.
Phase 2: Identification of Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities (IROs) and Stakeholder Engagement
Impact materiality
For all potentially material topics identified in the previous phase, the key impacts arising from the organization’s own operations and the value chain connected to environmental, social, and governance issues have been recognized. This includes impacts resulting from products and services, as well as through business relationships. Business relationships encompass those within the upstream and downstream value chain and are not limited to direct contractual relationships.

Specifically, impacts on people and the environment reflect the correlation of the organization's practices and value chain with environmental and societal impacts. These were identified through detailed research and meetings with specialized executives of the Group, who possess the necessary expertise and deep understanding of the Group's activities. The research analysis utilized a variety of information sources, such as industry standards and best practices, environmental and social data, market and economic information, ESG assessments, and feedback from previous evaluations. According to the ESRS, impacts on environmental issues are considered before any mitigation actions. The Group followed this approach by focusing on inherent impacts to achieve a realistic depiction of its impact.
Regarding impact identification, dedicated meetings with representatives of the Group's Departments and Senior Management were conducted to provide valuable information on creating the list of impacts. This process led to the identification of both positive and negative impacts, actual or potential, that arise from the Group's own operations and significant value chain activities, affecting the short-, medium-, and/or long-term horizon. The final list of impacts was validated by the Group's Senior Management.
Financial Materiality
Based on ESRS specifications, a topic is considered material if it causes or can reasonably be expected to cause significant financial impacts on the Group. These impacts include risks or opportunities that have or could have a significant effect on the Group’s growth, financial position, performance, cash flows, access to financing, or cost of capital, either in the short-, medium-, or long-term horizon.
To identify risks and opportunities associated with each potentially material topic, the following information sources were utilized:
Already identified impacts, which serve as a basis for deriving potential financial consequences.
Dependencies on natural and social resources, which may be sources of financial impacts.
Value chain activities and sustainability reports from previous years.
The organization's risk management process.
Other sources, both specialized for the client and independent, such as benchmarking with competitive companies and sustainability indices.
The preliminary list of risks and opportunities was compiled through thorough analysis of these sources and internal discussions with Senior Management. The identification of risks and opportunities included determining risks arising from impacts and dependencies that could adversely affect the Group's financial figures. It also involved identifying opportunities that the Group could leverage by responding to external conditions to achieve a positive financial impact. Considering the deep knowledge required to identify the most critical risks and opportunities related to the Group's activities, close communication and collaboration were established through specialized discussions with internal stakeholders from relevant Divisions to provide the necessary information for developing the final list of risks and opportunities. The final list was validated by the Group's Senior Management, with the process involving the participation of key internal stakeholders responsible for recognizing broader financial risks and opportunities.

85
Stakeholder Engagement
In full alignment with ESRS standards, GEK TERNA Group developed a stakeholder engagement plan as an integral part of the Double Materiality assessment process. The purpose of the engagement plan is to identify internal and external stakeholders who will participate in evaluating impacts, risks, and opportunities to enhance interaction and dialogue, as well as to holistically map the Group's footprint while considering their views, expectations, and concerns. Specifically, the plan includes the main stakeholder groups, including both the users of the sustainability statement and the affected stakeholders, according to ESRS specifications. Furthermore, the Group has identified ESG Experts both within and outside the organization to enhance the accuracy and reliability of the process. Additionally, according to the ESRS, nature is considered a silent stakeholder, and relevant ecological data have been incorporated into the Group's materiality assessment.
The Group explored potential engagement methods (e.g., conducting online surveys, meetings—focus groups) to determine the appropriate method for stakeholder participation. After identifying relevant stakeholder groups and available engagement methods, GEK TERNA Group also assessed the timeline and necessary resources to determine the appropriate stakeholder approach. For impact assessment, internal and external stakeholders, as well as ESG experts, were selected based on their knowledge. The stakeholders played a crucial role by providing valuable insights into impacts and providing essential information that reflects the perspectives of affected parties through tongoing engagement. Furthermore, they assessed the suitability of the mechanisms and limits used in the impact assessment..
The risk and opportunity assessment was conducted with the participation of responsible senior executives from Group Management, representing departments such as Risk Management and Financial Planning. These executives were responsible for confirming the mechanisms and boundaries of financial materiality, as well as evaluating and verifying the identified risks and opportunities.
Phase 3: Evaluation of Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities (IROs)
The Group developed a structured approach to assess impact materiality in alignment with the ESRS, which differentiates the evaluation based on the type of impact being assessed. Specifically, for existing impacts, the severity of the impact is evaluated, whereas for potential impacts, both the severity and the likelihood of occurrence are assessed. The scoring mechanism developed, allows for a consistent and comparable evaluation of all impacts and has been validated by the Group's Management.
The severity of the impact is based on the following criteria:
Positive impacts:
Scale: How beneficial the positive impact is for people or the environment.
Scope: How widespread the impact is, considering the extent of the affected area (e.g., local/national/international level) or the number of people affected.
Negative impacts:
Scale: How severe the negative impact is for people or the environment.
Scope: How extensive the impact is, considering the extent of the affected area (e.g., local/national/international level) or the number of people affected.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
86
Irremediable character: The level of difficulty in addressing and restoring the damage caused.
The methodology for stakeholder engagement in the impact assessment involved the distribution of an online questionnaire. This instrument encompassed all impact categories (positive and negative), with clear guidance provided on the assessment scale. Data privacy was maintained in accordance with Group standards throughout the questionnaire's development and deployment.
To ensure consistent and comparable evaluation of all risks and opportunities, a scoring mechanism was developed. This mechanism calculates a financial materiality score by combining magnitude and likelihood and tracks each risk/opportunity with a specific financial indicator to demonstrate potential financial impact. Group Management approved the implementation of this scoring system.
The Group conducted a series of dedicated meetings with key internal stakeholders representing principal departments, including Risk Management and Financial Planning, to assess the financial materiality of identified potential ESRS topics. The objective was to evaluate the financial impacts (both risks and opportunities) on the Group's financial statements, growth trajectory, and overall performance.
Phase 4: Identification of key issues and final results
Following the completion of the assessment, the material impacts, risks, and opportunities were identified by comparing the calculated scores with the respective thresholds. Although the thresholds for impact and financial materiality were determined separately, a consistent methodology has been followed. This methodology was based on evaluating the minimum and maximum scores for (i) impacts and (ii) risks and opportunities, respectively. Each impact, risk, and opportunity exceeding the threshold, was classified as material.
This approach was followed to prioritize the material sustainability issues for the year 2024. This evaluation process provided a comprehensive understanding of the importance of the topics, considering their financial impact and significance to stakeholders. This enables a strategic focus on key areas that align with the Group's sustainability goals and commitments. The results were validated by the ESG Committee and the Group's Senior Management to enhance the effectiveness of the process and increase awareness of sustainability-related issues.
To enhance its organizational resilience and capacity to respond to emerging sustainability regulations, the Group has formally integrated a process for the identification, assessment, and management of sustainability-related opportunities. For material topics, specific action plans have been developed to ensure preparedness for the disclosure requirements outlined in the ESRS. This commitment will be further demonstrated through the annual undertaking of a Double Materiality assessment, which will actively incorporate evolving business operations and stakeholder considerations.
To monitor and evaluate its overall risk profile and the effectiveness of its risk management procedures, the Group has integrated the identification, assessment, and management of impacts, opportunities, and risks into its risk management framework. This ensures that the financial impact of each identified opportunity and risk is consistently tracked and monitored.

that are most relevant to its corporate strategy, business model, and resource allocation. By identifying and evaluating these key factors, the Group can anticipate challenges, seize opportunities, and maintain its competitiveness in a constantly changing environment.
The Group's strategy is the foundation for all operational decisions, ensuring alignment with long-term goals. Regular strategic reviews, informed by ongoing assessments, maintain a competitive edge and fulfill stakeholder expectations. This strategic approach, integrated into the business model, enables agile adaptation to market dynamics and the capture of new opportunities.
The table below presents the results of the Group's materiality assessment, highlighting the material impacts, risks, and opportunities identified from the analysis. The findings of this assessment did not, during the reporting period, necessitate any alteration to the Group's strategic direction or underlying business model, nor did they result in material financial consequences. The Group has adopted a phased implementation plan to address any anticipated future financial impacts arising from compliance with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).

GEK TERNA Group recognizes the importance of identifying and managing material impacts, risks, and opportunities as highlighted through materiality assessment. Key issues identified from the assessment relate to climate change, biodiversity, ecosystems, and social factors such as working conditions, employment practices, and corporate culture. These factors influence the business model, strategy, and value chain, requiring a shift to a more sustainable and resilient economic structure to effectively manage upcoming challenges and seize new growth opportunities.
Specifically, regarding climate change, the Group needs to adapt to stricter environmental regulations, which require adopting new technologies and practices to reduce carbon emissions and the environmental footprint. Moreover, the Group's strategy incorporates climate resilience into business operations, aiming to address existing environmental challenges and strengthen infrastructure. The value chain is impacted as the demand for sustainable practices extends to suppliers and partners, enhancing the overall sustainability of the business model.
Additionally, factors related to biodiversity may influence the Group, necessitating even stricter management of natural resources. Concerning the regulatory framework, the Group's strategy must integrate practices that protect biodiversity, such as ecosystem restoration and minimizing the impact of construction projects on nature. These practices might require adopting new technologies and adjusting project design and implementation processes. Additionally, the value chain is affected, as the Group needs to collaborate with suppliers and partners who share the same values concerning biodiversity conservation.
Furthermore, social factors related to employment practices and corporate culture influence the business model, strategy, and value chain through the need to create a dynamic and supportive work environment that fosters innovation, collaboration, and accountability. The Group’s strategy incorporates policies promoting employee satisfaction, personal safety, and professional development to attract and retain talented personnel. These policies include offering training and development opportunities, implementing fair compensation practices, and promoting diversity and inclusion.
At the same time, the Group implements policies and procedures that promote accident prevention and minimize occupational hazards, investing in new equipment and training programs to raise awareness and educate workforce. These initiatives enhance employee trust and commitment while reducing the likelihood of work disruptions and associated financial losses. The value chain is impacted by the need for the Group to collaborate with suppliers, partners, and subcontractors who uphold similar employment practices and maintain rigorous health and safety standards. This collaboration is essential to ensure the overall safety of projects and to safeguard the work environment.
In this context, the Group's strategy and business model are designed to prioritize resilience and adaptability, allowing the Group to effectively tackle significant impacts and risks while capitalizing on emerging opportunities. The resilience of the Group's strategy is built on the following factors:
Diversification of activities: The Group's involvement in various sectors enables the reduction of exposure to risks affecting a specific area and allows for opportunities in different markets.
Technological innovation: By adopting innovative technologies, the Group enhances process efficiency, reduces environmental impact, and boosts market competitiveness.

2.1.1.3Eligibility assessment
In accordance with the EUT Regulation, Taxonomy-eligible is an economic activity that is described and included in the Climate and Environmental Delegated Acts supplementing the Regulation. The eligibility of an activity is determined solely by its inclusion/description in these delegated acts, regardless of whether it meets the Technical Screening Criteria (TSC), and minimum (social) safeguards specified therein. Correspondingly, Taxonomy non-eligible is an economic activity that is not described in the delegated acts supplementing the Regulation.
The economic activities that are Taxonomy-aligned under the EUT Regulation must contribute directly or indirectly to one or more environmental objectives. Activities that contribute indirectly to one or more environmental objectives are classified as enabling or transitional activities, as follows:
Enabling activity: An economic activity qualifies as contributing substantially to one or more of the environmental objectives when it directly enables other activities to substantially contribute to one or more of the environmental objectives set by the EUT Regulation, provided that the economic activity does not lead to a lock-in of assets that undermine long-term environmental goals, considering the economic lifetime of those assets; and has a substantial positive environmental impact, on the basis of life-cycle considerations.
Transitional activity: An economic activity, for which there is no technologically and economically feasible low-carbon alternative, qualifies as contributing substantially to CCM when it supports the transition to a climate-neutral economy consistent with a pathway to limit the temperature increase to 1,5oC above pre-industrial levels, by phasing out GHG emissions, in particular emissions from solid fossil fuels.
4 The amount includes the contribution of the continuing and discontinued activities of TERNA ENERGY according to the consolidated financial statements of the Group for FY2024, as analyzed in the above table.

2.1.1.4Alignment assessment
The EUT Regulation outlines three conditions an economic activity must meet to be considered environmentally sustainable and aligned:
Significant contribution to one or more of the six environmental objectives defined in Article 9 of the Regulation - compliance with the Substantial Contribution Technical Screening Criteria (TSC) defined in the delegated acts of the Regulation for each environmental objective.
Do no significant harm (DNSH) to the other environmental objectives defined in Article 9 of the Regulation, in accordance with Article 17 - compliance with the DNSH TSC defined in the delegated acts of the Regulation for each environmental objective.
Compliance with the Minimum Safeguards (MS) described in Article 18 of the Regulation.
For each of the 22 identified eligible activities for FY2024, GEK TERNA Group conducted a detailed assessment to determine whether each eligible activity and its associated projects/facilities meet the Substantial Contribution TSC for one or more environmental objectives of the Regulation and the DNSH TSC for the remaining environmental objectives.
Substantial Contribution
GEK TERNA Group’s eligible activities related to electricity generation (4.1, 4.3, 4.5, 4.8), electricity storage through pumped hydropower storage (4.10), construction of electricity transmission infrastructure (3.20) and NG transmission infrastructure (4.14), construction of personal mobility infrastructure (6.13), rail transport infrastructure (6.14), low-carbon road transport infrastructure (6.15), construction of green buildings (part of 7.1), and installation of high energy efficiency lighting (7.3) comply with the Substantial Contribution TSC for CCM. Additionally, the eligible activities related to the installation of smart infrastructure for road bridge monitoring (4.1), motorway maintenance and operation (3.4) comply with the Substantial Contribution TSC for circular economy (CE).
Eligible activities related to electricity generation from NG (4.29), upgrading/refurbishment of existing water supply networks (2.1, 5.2), urban solid waste management (2.7), the construction and renovation of buildings (part of 7.1 related to non-green buildings and 7.2) do not meet the Substantial Contribution TSC for the respective environmental objectives of climate change mitigation (CCM), water (WTR), and circular economy (CE) due to the lack of sufficient documentation for FY2024.
It should be noted that the Substantial Contribution TSC for CCA require the implementation of physical and non-physical adaptation solutions that significantly reduce identified material physical climate risks for all eligible activities of the Group. Based on the available documentation for FY2024, the Group’s eligible activities related to the construction, operation, and maintenance of road transport infrastructure (6.15) and the construction of flood protection works (14.2) comply with the Substantial Contribution TSC for CCA.
Do No Significant Harm (DNSH)
For all eligible economic activities that demonstrate Substantial Contribution to the environmental objectives of CCM and CE, the Group further assessed their compliance with the respective DNSH TSC for the remaining environmental objectives of the Regulation.
The DNSH TSC for CCA require a Climate Risk and Vulnerability Assessment (CRA) for all identified eligible activities and their associated projects/facilities, covering their lifecycle. Additionally, the CRA
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
102
must be accompanied by a relevant adaptation plan including specific measures/actions to mitigate identified material physical climate risks and enhance opportunities related to climate change. The CRA and the adaptation plans have been conducted for a significant portion of the Group's eligible activities. Specifically, the assessment focuses on:
Areas of PV park facilities (4.1)
Areas of wind farm facilities (4.3)
Areas of hydropower plants (4.5)
The location of the biomass electricity production unit (4.8)
Areas of pumped hydropower storage facilities (4.10)
Areas of electricity transmission infrastructure projects (3.20)
Areas of new building construction (7.1)
Areas of electric vehicle charging station installations (6.15)
Areas of motorway concession projects (6.15, 3.4)
The CRA was conducted considering an optimistic, moderate, and pessimistic scenario, compared to the current risk in accordance with the corresponding IPCC Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios RCP2.6, RCP4.5, and RCP8.5, which represent the optimistic outcome of zero GHG emissions by 2100, the moderate outcome of emissions peaking around 2040 and then declining with a temperature increase of 1 to 2 by 2100, and the pessimistic outcome with a global temperature increase of approximately 4.3˚C by 2100. The risk assessment follows TCFD guidelines and includes the calculation of the impact (magnitude) of potential effects (on a five-level scale) and the likelihood (on a five-level scale) of these effects occurring, as follows:
Risk = Probability x Impacts
Where:
i.probability refers to the likelihood of occurrence of an identified climate risk, and
ii.impacts refer to the magnitude of impacts on business operations resulting from the climate risk.
The outcome of the climate risk assessment includes the scoring of each identified climate risk in each scenario to evaluate its significance. The adaptation capacity is based, among other factors, on existing adaptation plans and internal measures of the Group that are implemented to mitigate the impacts of the identified climate risks.
The analysis of the criteria and methods applied for the assessment of the Group's alignment with the Substantial Contribution and DNSH TSC of the EUT Regulation is presented in the following table.

2.1.1.5Minimum Safeguards
The final step for the alignment assessment with the EUT Regulation involves verifying compliance with the Regulation's Minimum Safeguards (MS), which pertain to the protection of human rights, anti-bribery and anti-corruption measures, fair competition, and proper tax practices, as specified in the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the International Labor Organization’s Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, and the International Bill of Human Rights.
This assessment was conducted in accordance with the Final Report on Minimum Safeguards developed by the Platform on Sustainable Finance (PSF), published in October 2022.

Monitoring and control through regular inspections.
Reporting incidents through a dedicated grievance mechanism.
In FY2024, there were no convictions for violations of labor laws or human rights against GEK TERNA Group.

2.1.1.6Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
For the presentation of the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) of the Group's Turnover, Capital Expenditures (CapEx), and Operating Expenses (OpEx), the templates of Annex II of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 are used to present the information required to be disclosed by companies. To avoid double counting in the allocation of the numerator of the KPIs for Turnover, CapEx and OpEx, the necessary eliminations of intra-group transactions have been applied. For the Group's economic activities that substantially contribute to more than one environmental objective, all relevant KPIs are allocated to a single environmental objective.
Considering that GEK TERNA Group conducts business activities related to Natural Gas (4.29), the corresponding templates of the supplementary delegated act (EU) 2022/2014 concering activities related to nuclear energy and fossil gas, are additionally used. The following table presents the required information for the Group's activities related to fossil gaseous fuels for FY2024, in accordance with Annex XII, Article 8 paragraphs 6 and 7 of the supplementary Delegated Act 2022/2014 of the Regulation.

2.1.1.8Accounting policies and additional information
The consolidated financial statements of GEK TERNA Group for FY2024 have been prepared in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Detailed information on the turnover, CapEx and OpEx of the Group's subsidiaries is presented in the following sections. Through these financial metrics, a clear picture of the Group is provided to investors and financial institutions in relation to the Group's sustainable practices and results. Subsequently, the methodology for calculating the key performance indicators (KPIs) of eligibility and alignment for FY2024 is described in detail as follows.
Turnover
Definition
The proportion of Taxonomy-aligned economic activities in the Group’s total turnover has been calculated as the part of net turnover derived from products and services associated with Taxonomy-aligned economic activities (numerator) divided by the net turnover (denominator) for the reporting year from 01.01.2024 to 31.12.2024.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
141
The denominator of the turnover KPI is based on the consolidated net turnover in accordance with IAS 1.82(a). For more details on the Group's accounting policies and consolidated net turnover, please refer to Chapter 4.12 Revenues of the Annual Financial Statement for FY2024.
The numerator of the turnover KPI is defined as the net turnover derived from products and services related to taxonomy aligned economic activities.
Reconciliation with financial statements
The consolidated net turnover can be reconciled with the Group’s consolidated financial statements, see Consolidated Total Revenues of the Annual Financial Statement for FY2024 (“Turnover”).
Activities using external staff and subcontractors
In some cases, subcontractors are used providing construction work to the Group's clients. In these cases, the revenue related to projects carried out by subcontractors is included in the total turnover of the respective activities. Their integration presupposes that the Group maintains control over the conditions under which each project is executed, ensuring compliance with the EUT Regulation.
The evaluation and recording of the relevant revenue follows the guidelines of IFRS 15, which defines the criteria for revenue recognition based on the satisfaction of performance obligations to customers.
Capital expenditures
Definition
The CapEx KPI is defined as the proportion of Taxonomy-aligned CapEx (numerator) divided by the total CapEx (denominator).
Total CapEx consists of additions to tangible and intangible fixed assets during the fiscal year, before depreciation and any remeasurements, including those arising from adjustments and impairments, and excluding any changes in fair value. They include tangible fixed assets (IAS 16) and intangible fixed assets (IAS 38), right-of-use (IFRS 16), and property investments (IAS 40). Additions resulting from business combinations are also included. Goodwill is not included in CapEx, as it is not defined as an intangible asset in accordance with IAS 38. For further details on the Group's accounting policies regarding CapEx, please refer to Chapters 4.6 Intangible assets, 4.7 Tangible assets, 4.19 Property investments, and 4.16 Leases of the Annual Financial Statement for FY2024.
The numerator consists of the following categories of capital expenditures that are eligible for the Taxonomy:
a. CapEx related to assets or processes that are associated with Taxonomy-aligned economic activities (“category a”). Generally, the generation of external revenues is used a guiding principle to identify economic activities that are associated with CapEx under category a.
b. CapEx that are part of a plan (“CapEx plan”) aiming to upgrade Taxonomy-eligible economic activities in order for them to become Taxonomy-aligned or to achieve Taxonomy-alignment of an economic activity (“category b”): There are no specific plans for alignment upgrade or increase of the Group's economic activities.
c. CapEx related to the purchase of output from Taxonomy-aligned economic activities and individual measures enabling certain targeted activities to become low-carbon or lead to GHG reductions (“category c”).

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
142
Reconciliation with financial statements
The Group’s total CapEx can be reconciled with the consolidated financial statements, see Chapters 8 Intangible assets and fair value, 10 Tangible fixed assets, and Chapter 11 Property investments, of the Annual Financial Statement for FY2024 (table of changes in intangible assets, right-of-use of fixed assets, investments in real estate, and tangible assets). These constitute the total from (acquisition and production costs):
Additions and,
Additions from business combinations for intangible assets, investments in real estate, rights-of-use of fixed assets, and tangible assets.
To avoid double counting in the CapEx KPI, capital (and operational) expenditures related to purchased products and individual measures already examined under “category a” are only counted once (i.e. CapEx and OpEx associated with assets or procedures related to Taxonomy-aligned economic activities).
Due to limited verification of the Group’s individual investments by the majority of its suppliers, a major part of aligned CapEx relates to the Group's Taxonomy-aligned activities, and the individual assessment of capital expenditures does not have a material impact on Taxonomy-aligned KPIs.
Operational expenditures
Definition
The OpEx KPI is defined as the proportion of Taxonomy-aligned OpEx (numerator) divided by the Group’s total OpEx (denominator).
Total OpEx include direct non-capitalized costs related to research and development, building renovation measures, short-term leases, maintenance and repair of buildings, and other direct expenditures for day-today servicing of assets, facilities and equipment. This includes:
Research and development expenses recognized during the reporting period as detailed in the Annual Financial Statement of Comprehensive Income within the Annual Financial Report for FY2024. In accordance with the consolidated financial statements (IAS 38.126), this includes all non-capitalized costs directly attributable to research or development activities.

Strategy
2.1.2Transition plan for climate change mitigation [E1-1]
GEK TERNA Group is an active supporter of global and national initiatives aimed at mitigating climate change and adapting to climate challenges, such as extreme weather events, floods, droughts, and rising temperatures. In this context, the Group has already committed to reducing its carbon footprint by adopting energy efficiency practices, utilizing renewable energy sources, while implementing innovative technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Although the Group does not yet have a comprehensive transition plan, the importance of aligning with European initiatives to achieve climate neutrality by 2050, is acknowledged.
To achieve this goal, the Group will soon initiate the development of a strategic transition plan that will be fully aligned with its business strategy and ESG policy, as established and approved by the Board of Directors. This plan will outline the pathway towards sustainable and climate-neutral future growth5.
2.1.3Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model [ESRS 2 SBM-3]
To assess the resilience of its business model and strategy, GEK TERNA Group has conducted climate-related scenario analysis. This approach aims to evaluate the Group's ability to address and adapt to changes and challenges that may arise, ensuring better preparedness for the impacts of climate change, while securing long-term sustainability. The Group defines climate risks as the potential negative effects on an organization’s financial resilience due to climate change factors, such as extreme weather events.
The climate scenario analysis provides a comprehensive assessment of both physical and transitional climate risks that could affect the organization. At GEK TERNA Group, the resilience analysis covers the

range of activities most closely with the strongest interaction with the environment6. The assessment extends across the entire value chain to assess potential financial impacts that may occur.
The qualitative analysis carried out in 2022 was based on the specifications of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) framework. This framework provides a structured approach for understanding and categorizing risks associated with climate change. The resilience analysis has not been updated since the existing conditions and parameters remained stable from 2022 to 2024, with no significant changes necessitating a revision. The time horizons used in the analysis are as follows:
Short-term horizon: 1 to 2 years
Medium-term horizon: 3 to 6 years, examining climate change impacts on business operations up to 2030
Long-term horizon: starting from 2030, examining deeper and structural changes in response to evolving climate and energy conditions up to 2050.
Aligned with the TCFD recommendations, the Group has developed an extensive climate risk map. The map was designed at Group level and serves as a tool for systematically identifying, assessing, and prioritizing climate risks, enabling the integration of necessary mitigation and adaptation strategies into business operations, thereby ensuring sustainable development in the future.
In this context, a qualitative assessment was conducted based on data provided by the climate scenarios RCP 2.6, RCP 4.5, and RCP 8.5 of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)7.

RCP 2.6 is a strict low-emission scenario where CO2 emissions decrease from 2020 and reach zero by 2100. The analysis focuses on 2050, with time periods from 2023 to 2030 and 2050. This framework is suitable for the activities of GEK TERNA Group, such as infrastructure development, energy, and industry, which have time concessions of 20-50 years. The analysis shows that RCP 2.6 has the lowest risks of occurrence and severity.

RCP 4.5 is an intermediate emission scenario, peaking around 2040 and then decreasing, with a temperature increase of 1-2 by 2100. It represents the most likely baseline scenario, without additional climate policies, due to the depletion of non-renewable fuels. It is widely used and reliable, but the analysis shows increased risks of occurrence and severity.

RCP 8.5 represents a scenario without coordinated emission reduction efforts, leading to high risks of occurrence and severity, according to the climate analysis.

The scenarios are based on two different options to ensure carbon neutrality by 2050: (i) International Energy Agency (IEA) Net Zero Emissions (NZE) 2050 and (ii) IEA Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS). The climate scenarios are compatible with the critical assumptions of the financial statements as presented
6 The scope of the resilience analysis encompasses the following activities in detail: biogas and electricity production (TERNA ENERGY), mining (TERNA MAG S.A.), concessions (TERNA S.A. – Concessions), and construction (TERNA S.A. – Construction).
7 The assumptions related to climate are derived from the average of 7 selected pairs of global (GCMs) and regional climate models (RCMs), developed under the EURO-CORDEX program with a horizontal spatial resolution of approximately 0.11°, are provided by the Hellenic Ministry of Environment and Energy. These estimates pertain to the specific geographic locations of each business sector.

in the Taxonomy report. Specifically, the climate scenarios are considered in terms of “Do Not Significant Harm (DNSH)” to climate change adaptation. For each of the Group's recognized activities, climate-related risks are examined in relation to the IPCC's RCP2.6, RCP4.5, and RCP8.5 (Representative Concentration Pathway) scenarios.
The Group defines climate risks as the potential adverse effects on an organization's financial resilience due to factors related to climate change, such as extreme weather events. The risk identification process considers both operational activities and the entire value chain, drawing on internal expertise and external knowledge sources related to the business environment. Within this framework, the following types of risks have been identified:

Transition risks

The analysis of climate transition scenarios assesses the macroeconomic changes due to shifts in the economic, regulatory, technological, and social framework resulting from the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Physical risks

These risks pertain to potential financial losses arising from changing climatic conditions. Such changes may result from long-term shifts in climate conditions, known as chronic changes, or from an increase in the frequency and severity of extreme weather events.

Legislative risks (Current/new Legislation)

The Group encounters risks from both existing and emerging legislation that impact its business activities across various sectors. These include cap-and-trade schemes such as the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) and regulations related to energy efficiency.

Acute physical risks

These risks relate to extreme weather events that can directly impact business operations, such as storms, hurricanes, floods, heatwaves, etc.

Technological risks:

Access to and utilization of technology is critical for the efficient operation of the Group. Digitalization and innovative technologies are central to decarbonization. Failure to leverage these technologies can reduce customer service capacity and lead to revenue loss, while lack of knowledge in new sustainable practices can increase costs.

Chronic physical risks: 

These reflect the long-term impacts of climate change, such as water availability, sea level rise, and changes in wind patterns and solar radiation.

Legal risks:

The Group has established an environmental management system to identify and comply with legal requirements, aiming at minimizing compliance costs.

 

Market risks:

Natural gas and electricity prices affect business activities, with potential revenue reductions from decreased demand or increased operational costs from alternative fuels. However, opportunities may arise from funding programs for energy transition.

 

Reputational risks:

Activities such as mining and thermal energy production from natural gas can impact corporate image due to climate-related reputational risks.

Governance
2.1.7Integration of sustainability-related performance in incentive schemes [ESRS 2 GOV-3]
The principles of sustainability within GEK TERNA Group are developed through a governance structure that addresses both regulatory requirements and voluntary commitments. The Board of Directors oversees the sustainability strategy by integrating sustainability issues into the agenda of Board meetings, following international best practices.
Additionally, the Group has established and implements a Remuneration Policy applicable to its entire workforce. This policy is an integral part of the Group's corporate governance practices and aligns with its operational strategy and objectives, aiming to align the organization's interests with those of the shareholders.
As detailed in the "General Information" section, there is a provision for linking Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues with variable compensation for the members of the Board and top management executives who are not members of the Board (Directors, Top Management Executives (TME)). For this reporting year, climate change considerations are incorporated into the variable remuneration of administrative, management, and supervisory bodies. However, remuneration is not evaluated in relation to specific targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
ESG-related objectives are set through the creation of specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that align with the Group's values and strategic priorities, with the detailed specifications determined by the Board of Directors. The Group monitors, reviews, and updates its remuneration processes and structures to ensure alignment with business goals, regulatory frameworks, and market best practices.
Metrics and targets
2.1.8Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation [E1-4]

consumption and fuel consumption for both stationary and mobile combustion. The table below illustrates the Group's total energy consumption, and the distribution of energy sources related to its activities, including the proportion of renewable and non-renewable energy in the total energy consumption during the reporting period.
The consumption of purchased or acquired electricity from fossil fuels, nuclear, and renewable sources for all companies was determined using the total electricity consumed, incorporating data corresponding to Guarantees of Origin and the residual energy mix of each country. Specifically for Greece, data from the Renewable Energy Sources and Guarantees of Origin Operator (DAPEEP) were used for the respective supplier, while for subsidiaries operating abroad, data for the country's residual mix were used from information provided by the International Energy Agency and the AIB.
The data are expressed in MWh using appropriate conversion factors derived from official reports, including the 2006 IPCC guidelines, the Greek Ministry of Environment and Energy11, and the International Energy Agency12.
The Group's commitment to reducing emissions from energy use is reflected in the acquisition of Guarantees of Origin certificates in most of its subsidiaries, with the primary aim of achieving higher environmental performance and promoting the use of renewable energy sources. Specifically, for the year 2024, the Group acquired green certificates for 63,020 MWh (equivalent to 33.2% of total energy consumption), confirming that the same amount of electricity consumed was produced from Renewable Energy Sources (RES).

Methodology for estimating Scope 1 and 2 emissions
The Scope 1 GHG emissions originate from fuel consumption in stationary and mobile combustion, as well as from the refilling of air conditioning equipment due to refrigerant leaks. The fuels consumed during the reporting period are as follows:
Stationary Combustion: Natural gas, LPG, heating oil, gasoline, biogas, and petroleum coke (petcoke)
Mobile Combustion: Gasoline, diesel, and aviation turbine fuel (for helicopter use)
The emission factors used, are sourced from the UK Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA) database (version 1.1, 2024)17.
For the calculation of Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions, electricity consumption during the execution of the subsidiaries' activities both in Greece and abroad is taken into account. Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions are calculated using location-based and market-based approach in accordance with the GHG Protocol guidelines. Additionally, under the market-based approach, the calculation of emissions considers the acquisition of Guarantees of Origin (GOs) and applies the most recent publicly available residual energy mix values. For Greece, the energy mix factor of the supplier HERON ENERGY, which is the main electricity provider for the Group’s subsidiaries in Greece (DAPEEP Energy Mix 2023), is used, and for abroad, the respective residual energy mix values for the European countries of operation (Bulgaria, Cyprus, Serbia) and the International Energy Agency (IEA) database for countries outside Europe (Bahrain) are utilized.
The GHG included in the calculation of Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O)18. The GWP factors from the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) are used for calculating CO2 equivalent emissions: CO2 (1), CH4 (27), N2O (273)19.
The carbon footprint from the Group's activities for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions was calculated based on actual consumption data collected through specific data collection templates from the Group's subsidiaries.
17 The emission factors have been adjusted based on the GWP from the IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report, as the DEFRA 2024 dataset includes GWPs from the IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report.

Methodology for measuring Scope 3 emissions
For calculating Scope 3 emissions, the methodology outlined in the GHG Protocol Corporate Value Chain Accounting & Reporting Standard is used. Necessary data for calculating Scope 3 emissions from the Group's subsidiaries were collected using specific data collection templates, without using primary data from suppliers or other value chain partners20.
This framework employs a combination of two methodological approaches for secondary data analysis by emission category, aiming to achieve accurate and comprehensive carbon footprint recording:
Approach 1: Activity Data-Based Calculation
This approach involves collecting and analyzing data directly related to the company’s activities.
Approach 2: Expenditure-Based Calculation
This approach uses financial expenses during the reporting year as a basis for emission calculations.
Specifically:
For Categories 1, 2, and 4, the calculation is based on expenditure data (pre-tax expenses) with corresponding emission factors derived from Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) databases such as ADEME, BEIS, EPA, EXIOBASE, and Market Economics Limited.
For Category 5, waste quantities and disposal methods collected from the Group’s subsidiaries are used, with emission factors from the UK-DEFRA database (version 1.1, 2024).
For Category 6, business travel data per transport mode is used, with emission factors from the UK-DEFRA database (version 1.1, 2024).
For Category 7, an approximate model based on employee commuting preferences per country and the number of employees per country is used.
For Category 11, primary data from relevant subsidiaries within the scope of Category 11 are used, with emission factors from the UK-DEFRA database (version 1.1, 2024).
For Categories 10 and 12, primary data from the subsidiary within the scope21 are used, with emission factors from the UK-DEFRA database (version 1.1, 2024).
GEK TERNA Group discloses biogenic CO2 emissions from biomass combustion or biodegradation related to Scope 1 emissions separately from Scope 1 GHG emissions. If "average biofuel blend" fuel types are used for oil and gasoline, out-of-scope emissions corresponding to biogenic emissions are calculated using appropriate DEFRA 2024 factors.
For the year 2024, biogenic emissions amount to 6,913.04 tCO2eq. The Group does not disclose biogenic CO2 emissions from biomass combustion or biodegradation, both upstream and downstream in the value chain, separately from consolidated gross Scope 3 emissions. The calculation of Scope 3 emissions accounts for other GHG, including CH4 and N2O, since the emission factors applied provide results in terms of CO2 equivalent tons (CO2eq).
20 The entirety (100%) of Scope 3 emissions is the result of secondary data calculation. [E1:E1-6_AR_46_g]

2.2Biodiversity and ecosystems [ESRS E4]
Strategy
2.2.1Transition plan and consideration of biodiversity and ecosystems in strategy and business model [E1-1]
GEK TERNA Group has made it a priority to preserve biodiversity, manage the ecological impacts of its activities, and restore the natural environment following construction works. The Group’s primary objective is to reduce its ecological footprint and promote sustainable development, adopting responsible practices across its own activities and value chain. Recognizing that factors related to ecosystem dependencies have significant long-term economic implications, the Group aims to integrate these elements into its strategy and business model. Currently, the Group focuses its efforts on identifying and managing related risks, following the gradual evolution of market practices, as well as the corresponding methodologies and tools.
In this context, and to map the dependencies, impacts, and risks related to biodiversity and ecosystems, the following initiatives were undertaken to complement the Double Materiality Analysis:
Assessment of impacts and dependencies related to biodiversity and ecosystems
Evaluation of risks in relation to biodiversity and ecosystems

164
The scope of the analysis includes the Group's own activities, specifically taking into account the TNFD's sectoral guidelines for the Group's main activities (construction, real estate, concessions, thermal energy production, renewable energy production, and mining). For the assessment of dependencies, in addition to the TNFD's sectoral guidelines, the ENCORE tool has been utilized. This tool provides information on dependencies on natural resources, utilizing extensive literature reviews for each combination of ecosystem and economic activity.
The risk assessment follows a three-tier scale (low-medium-high) and utilizes the following time horizons: short-term (1 year), medium-term (2-5 years), and long-term (>5 years). The relevant risks are presented horizontally across the entire Group. The evaluation indicated that activities with potentially high or very high impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems are identified as negatively affecting sensitive biodiversity areas according to relevant guidelines and literature analysis.
The scale used for analyzing impacts and dependencies is five-tiered (Very High (VH), High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), and Very Low (VL)) to ensure alignment with the sources utilized (ENCORE, TNFD).
Summary of results
From the aforementioned exercises and the synthesis of sector-specific results, the following outcomes regarding impacts, dependencies, and risks were identified:
Dependencies
Global climate regulation services: Ecosystems contribute to climate regulation by reducing the intensity and frequency of climatic events that can damage buildings and infrastructure or affect ongoing activities.
Rainfall regulation services: These services contribute to stabilization of rainfall patterns, reducing the risk of floods and droughts that can affect construction and mining activities.
Soil and sediment retention services: Ecosystems' retention of soil and sediments provides a stable substrate for construction, controls erosion, and reduces the risk of landslides, thereby protecting infrastructure.
Water flow regulation services: Maintaining water flow by ecosystems is vital for various processes, such as cooling and chemical breakdown in mining activities.
Impacts
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions: Greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄), contribute to climate change, affecting global temperatures and causing extreme weather events.
Use of freshwater areas: The use of freshwater areas for various activities, such as mining and energy production, can affect the hydrological balance and cause changes in the morphology of water bodies.
Ecosystem disturbances (e.g., noise, light): Disturbances from noise and light can negatively impact the human quality of life and ecosystem health. Noise from construction activities or mining can cause stress and affect animal communication.
Risks
Regarding the main transitional risks, the most significant ones pertain to the tightening of environmental legislation and increased regulatory obligations for managing natural resources, waste

165
disposal, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. These risks may lead to increased operational costs and limit the development of new projects.
Additionally, the Group faces physical risks due to dependencies on the impacts of climate change. The most significant physical risks include extreme weather events and reduced freshwater availability. All these factors might affect the seamless execution of the Group's activities. Furthermore, biodiversity loss can impact ecosystem services such as soil retention and rainfall regulation, and increased temperatures can affect the performance of materials and workers.
Finally, concerning systemic risks, these include vulnerabilities from deforestation, which could disrupt local hydrological cycles and affect water-dependent activities such as hydropower, construction, and mining. Additionally, biodiversity loss can destabilize markets by significantly reducing available natural resources, potentially leading to increased costs for businesses due to reduced ecosystem services.
Moreover, extensive transitional and physical risks may also lead to financial systemic risks for the Group. These risks could include increased insurance costs, reduced asset values, and heightened operational expenses due to the impacts of climate change.
2.2.2Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model [SBM-3]
GEK TERNA Group's approach to managing the ecological impacts of its activities focuses on prevention, management, and restoration of affected areas. By adopting this approach, the Group ensures responsible operation and the unimpeded implementation of its business model, taking into account biodiversity parameters related to the development of its activities.
A critical step in identifying and documenting the Group's impacts is carried out as part of the environmental licensing processes, which are implemented in full compliance with European and national legislation requirements. Specifically, during the construction and operation of its projects, the Group conducts Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs), Special Ecological Assessments (SEAs), Special Ornithological Studies (SOS), as well as Environmental Monitoring Programs in collaboration with specialized consultants. The objective of these activities is to obtain the necessary information to ensure the protection of local ecosystems through the investigation and implementation of appropriate mitigation and restoration measures.
It is worth noting that interaction and open dialogue with stakeholders are pursued at various stages of the Group's activities, aiming to create communication channels and develop trust with the broader community. This includes consultations with local communities as stipulated by the environmental licensing process to incorporate local opinions into planning. Additionally, stakeholders participate in the Double Materiality Assessment process to achieve a realistic depiction of the Group's impact.
Moreover, the identification of areas and ecosystems vulnerable to environmental changes allows the Group to avoid developing projects in such areas, thereby reducing the risk of regulatory sanctions and social backlash. Below is a list of the Group's significant facilities, which are under its operational control, highlighting those located within Protected Area Networks2324.

Identifying and evaluating these factors contribute to understanding how the Group can continue to enhance its resilience.
The results of the Double Materiality analysis regarding significant impacts on the topic of "Biodiversity and Ecosystems", with a particular focus on the subtopic "Impacts and Dependencies on Ecosystem Services", are presented below.

Impacts

Positive

Actual

Supporting biodiversity and ecosystems protection

Protecting biodiversity and restoring ecosystems through planting, reforestation and monitoring programs in projects developed within or adjacent to protected areas.

Negative

Potential

Contribution to biodiversity degradation

Damage and/or loss of biodiversity due to the lack of taking mitigation measures in projects developed within or adjacent to protected areas.

It is noted that the Group has not identified significant negative impacts concerning soil degradation, desertification, or soil sealing, and endangered species according to the results of the Double Materiality Analysis. Regarding the management of the Group's impact, the Group implements a management system that ensures both the enhancement of positive effects and the mitigation of actual and potential negative impacts from activities.
Specifically, for the negative impact related to the potential burden/loss of biodiversity from its activities, all necessary measures are taken to prevent any incidents. These actions are often included in the conditions set by environmental licensing. Given that significant potential negative impacts are associated with its value chain, the Group will explore ways to actively collaborate with stakeholders, specifically with Tier 1 suppliers, concerning the practices applied for biodiversity and the areas where they operate.
Impact, risk, and opportunity management
2.2.3Description of processes to identify and assess material biodiversity and ecosystem-related impacts, risks and opportunities [IRO-1]
The Group has identified the material impacts, risks, dependencies, and opportunities related to biodiversity and ecosystems arising from its activities. This assessment has been performed utilizing the LEAP approach and the guidelines of the TNFD, including sector-specific guides.
Some of the Group's facilities are located in proximity to areas characterized by sensitive ecosystems and high biodiversity. However, the activities in these regions primarily have temporary negative impacts during the construction phase. The Group prioritizes addressing these biodiversity impacts, implementing necessary measures and corrective actions. In cases where impacts are unavoidable during the operational phase (e.g., thermal power plants), the Group focuses on minimizing these impacts to the greatest extent possible.
The results of the analysis are presented in section E4-1.

2.2.4Policies related to biodiversity and ecosystems [E4-2]
Recognizing the responsibility for ensuring biodiversity protection, the Group has developed and implemented an ESG Policy, which includes a dedicated pillar focused on the protection and preservation of biodiversity and ecosystems. This policy serves as a guiding framework to ensure that the Group's activities have minimal negative impact on biodiversity and ecosystems, setting specific targets to fulfill its environmental commitments.
Through the implementation of this Policy, the Group actively takes responsibility for managing the environmental impacts of its activities to protect and restore natural landscapes, especially since many of its operations occur in biodiversity-sensitive areas. Within this context, the policy reflects the Group's management approach to biodiversity conservation and ecosystem protection, specifically addressing:
The preservation of mountain ecosystems, including biodiversity.
Restoration of lands utilized and impacted by the Group's business activities.
Increasing afforestation and reforestation efforts at both local and national levels.
The ESG Policy applies to all subsidiaries that do not have their own ESG Policy and is relevant, to the extent applicable to joint ventures, temporary partnerships, and other equivalent associations where the Group has assumed management responsibilities. The Director of Sustainable Development and Corporate Social Responsibility, in collaboration with the relevant departments and divisions, is responsible for the implementation and monitoring of the policy.
2.2.5Actions and resources related to biodiversity and ecosystems [E4-3]
GEK TERNA Group prioritizes biodiversity protection as it is a critical indicator for the balance and smooth functioning of ecosystems.

Installation of bird collision prevention systems.
The ESG Policy supports these efforts by specifying actions related to the Group's impact on biodiversity loss. The policy commitments serve as benchmarks for monitoring the performance and the effectiveness of actions concerning biodiversity conservation:
Zero incidents of biodiversity degradation.
Annual monitoring of risks and impacts on biodiversity across all environmentally permitted sites within the Natura network.
Conducting annual ornithological monitoring studies.
Installing technical protection systems where necessary.
Moreover, the Group's commitment to biodiversity conservation is demonstrated through actions aimed at restoring the natural landscape of exploitable areas and surfaces associated with its business activities, as well as initiatives to protect local ecosystems. In 2024, the Group took care of 26,322 trees across an area of 96 acres planted in previous years as part of restoration projects in areas where renewable energy projects have been developed. The operational expenses allocated for the implementation of these initiatives amounted to 68,000 euros.
As part of the Central Greece (E 65) motorway construction, the restoration of two old, inactive quarries, covering a total area of 43,600 square meters in the municipalities of Lamia and Domokos, began in 2023 and is ongoing. The project aims to restore the area's topography and vegetation through planting activities.
Metrics and targets
2.2.6Targets related to biodiversity and ecosystems [Ε4-4]
GEK TERNA Group has not set specific quantifiable and time-bound targets, as biodiversity degradation is recognized as a potential impact of its business activities. However, the Group adopts a proactive approach and implements appropriate measures for the continuous monitoring of its performance to consistently ensure responsible operations and full alignment with national and European environmental legislation.
2.2.7Impact metrics related to biodiversity and ecosystems change [E4-5]
The Group discloses the number, as well as the area size, of its facilities that are under its operational control and are located within or close to biodiversity-sensitive areas. As determined through the environmental permitting process, which includes an assessment of the potential impacts of each project, the projects situated within or near biodiversity-sensitive areas do not compromise the integrity of these areas and therefore do not have a negative impact on them.
In total, the Group’s facilities (projects) covering an area of 163.6 hectares are located within biodiversity-sensitive areas and one project is situated nearby, covering an area of 29.8 hectares. Additionally, the Group has 87.5 kilometers within Natura areas, which constitutes 6% of the total length of the highways in its portfolio.
Furthermore, during 2024, there were no incidents or complaints from regulatory authorities, environmental inspectors, non-governmental organizations, or the local community regarding the

Strategy
3.1.1Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model [ESRS 2 SBM-3]
The Group's strategy and business model focus on developing a balanced portfolio, leveraging the strong foundations built over time. Its aim is to achieve continuous growth and expansion by continuously integrating Sustainable Development principles into its operations. The Group perceives responsible business operations as a strategic path that enhances sustainability, with workforce playing a crucial role in this endeavor. Additionally, the Group is committed to supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the UN Agenda 2030, actively promoting these key principles through actions and initiatives.
The Double Materiality Assessment has pinpointed both actual and potential impacts, risks, and opportunities related to human resources, underscoring their interconnectedness with the Group's overarching strategy and business model. This methodology enables the Group to integrate insights from the analysis into the decision-making process, thereby enhancing the positive impact on workforce and crafting initiatives to tackle critical workforce-related issues. Engaging a diverse array of stakeholders, including senior management, in the identification and evaluation of these impacts, risks and opportunities, ensures immediate feedback on the Group's performance. This process also elevates awareness of key issues influencing long-term value creation, reinforcing the Group's commitment to maintaining continuous, sustainable, and productive employment and promoting decent work.
The Double Materiality results indicated that the impacts related to working conditions, with an emphasis on health and safety protection, as well as the impacts related to the safeguarding of human rights, have been identified as significant. These issues are central to the Group's strategy, as the organization recognizes that continuously improving working conditions and supporting the professional development of employees lead to higher satisfaction and productivity. This directly aligns with the Group's ambition to foster innovation and retain talent, which is crucial for achieving long-term growth. Acknowledging these dynamics, the Group takes proactive measures to establish a safe working environment aimed at preventing and eliminating incidents such as violations of human rights or workplace accidents. This aligns with the Group’s commitment to operate responsibly, continually striving to minimize negative impacts while enhancing positive ones.
Regarding the material impacts, risks, and opportunities identified, all individuals in the workforce who could be significantly affected by business activities fall within the scope of disclosures. The Group recognizes as own workforce employees who are directly employed, namely permanent employees, temporary employees, full-time or part-time employees, as well as other members of the workforce, such as freelancers and outsourced workers.

Through the Double Materiality Assessment, the impacts, risks, and opportunities related to the ESRS topic "Own workforce" and specifically the sub-topics "Equal treatment and opportunities for all" and "Working conditions" were identified and evaluated. The material impacts, associated with the above sub-topics, which emerged from the Double Materiality Assessment, are presented below.
Working conditions

Impacts

Positive

Actual

Building a health and safety culture 

Protection and promotion of physical and mental health through the strengthening of health and safety culture by implementing certified management systems and training programs.

Negative

Potential

Workplace accidents and occupational diseases

Increase in the frequency and/or severity of accidents or incidents of occupational diseases due to failure of developing an appropriate health and safety culture.

Equal treatment and opportunities for all

Impacts

 

Positive

Actual

Inclusive culture where human rights, diversity, and equality are safeguarded

Defending human rights, promoting diversity and ensuring equal opportunities for all, through the implementation of the Human Rights Policy and a complaints mechanism.

Negative

Potential

Inefficient policy implementation and monitoring

Increased incidents of human rights violations, lack of initiatives to promote diversity, equality and inclusion, due to inefficient implementation of the Group's relevant policies and failure to cultivate an appropriate culture.

For the year 2024, risks and opportunities related to own workforce have not been identified as material, while positive and negative impacts on both sub-topics have been highlighted as material.
Regarding the material negative impact related to working conditions, this mainly concerns potential isolated incidents, considering the specific characteristics of the sectors in which the Group operates (construction, manufacturing) and the fact that employee health and safety is a fundamental aspect of operations and a primary business objective. The Group, through various measures and actions, and in full alignment with the provisions of labor legislation and existing standards, ensures the existence of appropriate mechanisms to address any incidents and eliminate negative impacts.
Regarding the significant negative impact on equal treatment and specifically on human rights, this is considered systemic, and the scope of reference is linked to the Group's activities (internal workforce) and extends to the value chain. The significant impact highlighted by the Double Materiality analysis is potential and relates to isolated incidents. However, the Group has taken specific measures to ensure equal opportunities in an environment that respects and protects human rights, including issues such as child labor and forced or compulsory labor, in all countries where it operates. Additionally, it promotes initiatives to build a workplace where every employee has equal rights and is treated fairly and with respect, according to their abilities to fulfill their respective roles. The actions contributing to positive impacts mainly involve the implementation of the Health and Safety System, certified with ISO

173
45001:2018, the creation of new jobs with decent wages and in safe working conditions, and the provision of a work environment based on equality and inclusion, avoiding discrimination and incidents of human rights violations.
All business sectors of the Group are directly involved in the material positive impacts of the two sub-topics, while indirect participation may occur within the value chain. The impacts affect all workplaces where own workforce is employed, without restrictions on specific countries or regions. Regarding the Group's transition plans to reduce the negative environmental impact, no direct connection with the material impacts has been identified. For 2024, no impacts, risks, or opportunities have been identified related to restructuring and the loss/creation of jobs due to Group’s goal of reducing its environmental footprint.
At the same time, the Group maintains an ongoing commitment to ensuring a work environment based on free will and dignity, where all implemented labor practices respect employees’ freedom and rights. To this end, a risk assessment has been conducted to identify potential incidents of forced or compulsory labor, and the Group remains steadfast in its commitment not to engage in operations in areas where such risks exist. Through its ESG policy, the Group clearly states that it prohibits, does not participate in, and does not support any form of forced or compulsory labor, prison labor, or slavery. In this context, the Group does not contract with partners or suppliers who are not aligned with these practices.
During the Double Materiality Assessment, key groups within own workforce who are affected or could be negatively affected by the related impacts and risks were identified. Recognizing that some employees may be at greater risk of harm, the analysis considered the different characteristics of employees as mentioned in the Code of Conduct. The Group, given its multicultural staff of different backgrounds, genders, nationalities, etc., has mapped the employees to identify those with specific characteristics or those working in particular environments, such as workers on construction sites, young employees, or individuals with special needs. Based on this mapping, working conditions in different locations and job positions are analyzed to understand any risks related to the respective work environment. Additionally, by fostering collaboration and maintaining open dialogue through an open-door policy, the Group gains a clear understanding of which employees may be at greater risk of harm. It is worth mentioning that the Group does not allow any kind of discrimination based on race, religion, gender, social, cultural, political, sexual preference, or other categories and has adopted as a central practice the creation of a work environment of equal opportunities with special care for vulnerable groups. This practice is linked to broader positive impacts, both in the medium and long term, such as strengthening corporate culture with elements of diversity and equality, as well as ensuring meritocracy and equal treatment in the recruitment process.

3.1.3Processes for engaging with own workers and workers' representatives about impacts [S1-2]
GEK TERNA Group, fulfilling its social role, strives to ensure the well-being of its people. The Group is committed to maintaining an ongoing and reciprocal dialogue with all employees, confirming the dedication to responsible business practices and effectively addressing work-related challenges and employment conditions.
The Group ensures effective communication with employees, utilizing various channels. The frequency of communication is adjusted according to arising issues, with at least one communication occurring annually. Examples of communication channels include employee surveys, regular meetings and updates, notice boards, the Group's website, and social media platforms. The Group has adopted an "open door policy," promoting transparency and trust within the organization. Specifically, managers and directors are available to listen and discuss any concerns or issues employees may have. This policy encourages open communication, improves employee morale, resolves problems more quickly, and fosters a more collaborative work environment.
Communication with employees is crucial for identifying key issues affecting them that may impact the Group's seamless operation.

These initiatives also boost employee commitment and satisfaction while ensuring the Group's practices align with their needs and expectations.
3.1.4Processes to remediate negative impacts and channels for own workers to raise concerns [S1-3]
During the reporting period, there were no negative impacts identified concerning own workforce. In the event of adverse impacts on its employees, GEK TERNA Group ensures that appropriate corrective mechanisms are activated through its grievance mechanisms, the Whistleblowing Policy, and the Code of Conduct to implement suitable measures and actions.
GEK TERNA Group encourages all stakeholders, including employees, to report any potential or actual cases related to unethical behavior or violations of human or labor rights, such as discrimination, harassment, or bullying. In this context, distinct reporting channels have been established, which include communication via its website, a telephone hotline, email, as well as direct communication with the Reporting and Monitoring Officer for submitting relevant concerns and/or reports.
The grievance mechanism provides employees with a secure and confidential channel to report any breaches of policy or concerns regarding ethics and compliance in the workplace. The Group informs employees of this mechanism through internal communication channels, and detailed information on submitting concerns is available on the website. Employees are expected to contribute to maintaining a safe and inclusive work environment and are encouraged to voice concerns about ethical, legal, or regulatory issues. The Whistleblowing Policy ensures that staff and third parties can report misconduct without fear of retaliation, thereby enhancing trust and protection.
The Compliance Officer, responsible for receiving and monitoring reports, provides clear instructions for submitting a report, acknowledges receipt, and conducts an initial assessment. The Officer is also responsible for designating the appropriate unit or individual to handle the report, ensuring the confidentiality of the person's identity and any third parties mentioned.

commitment extends beyond creating policies to actively promoting a culture of transparency and open dialogue, where concerns can be raised without fear of reprisal. To support this culture, the Group has introduced extensive training and awareness programs for all employees, emphasizing the importance of reporting lines and grievance mechanisms. These programs are designed to encourage trust and open communication, offering practical guidance and examples on recognizing and reporting violations.
Additionally, all relevant policies and procedures, including guidelines for reporting illegal or unethical actions, are readily available on a shared electronic platform, which is used to deliver mandatory training regularly to maintain staff awareness. This platform provides easy and remote access for all employees, ensuring they always have the necessary tools and information to support their work practices. The digital accessibility of information enhances the ease of staying informed and compliant with corporate policies while providing employees with a reliable means to report any concerns.
Furthermore, the Group conducts regular assessments to determine if employees are aware of these procedures and trust them as effective tools for resolving their issues. These assessments include discussions with employees to better understand their perceptions of the existing procedures. Based on the results, the Group makes improvements where necessary, ensuring that the grievance mechanism and processes remain effective and reliable for its employees.

3.2Workers in the value chain [ESRS S2]
Strategy
3.2.1Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model [ESRS 2 SBM-3]
GEK TERNA Group recognizes the workers in the value chain as key stakeholders that directly or indirectly influence and are influenced by its business activities. Specifically, the skills, expertise, and efficiency of value chain workers influence the quality, speed, and effectiveness of Group projects’ implementation, thus affecting the ability to compete in the market and meet contractual obligations.
The working conditions ensured by the Group, affect the performance of the entire workforce, creating the foundations for a broader organizational culture and corporate strategy that enhances corporate reputation and productivity. Consequently, the existing and potential impacts, and the opportunities identified concerning working conditions, are directly linked to the business model and the corporate strategy. The identification of related risks is equally important and is integrated into the decision-making process and business model, as they can cause legal and financial complications, negatively affecting relationships with the workforce, partners, suppliers, and other stakeholders.
In this context, all workers in the Group's value chain, who may be significantly affected by the business activities, are included in the ESRS S2 disclosures. Specifically, workers in its value chain include:
Employees working at the Group's facilities who are not part of its own workforce: subcontractors covered by the Group's insurance contracts.
Employees working for entities in the upstream and downstream value chain: employees of suppliers and providers of products and services, business partners, customers (private or public), and employees in waste management services.
Employees engaged in joint venture activities or special purpose entities involving the GEK TERNA Group.
For the effective management of emerging issues, the potential involvement of the entire workforce was assessed, including workers with specific characteristics, those working in particular circumstances, or undertaking specific activities that may pose a higher health and safety risk.
As GEK TERNA Group operates in various geographical regions, it bears increased responsibility to ensure that both its own activities and those within its value chain align with international standards for the protection and respect of human rights. Consequently, the Group has implemented effective mechanisms and policies to avoid any association with activities or areas that pose risks of child or forced labor, thereby safeguarding the entire workforce involved in its value chain.
In the Double Materiality Assessment, the impacts, risks, and opportunities associated with the ESRS S2 topic "Workers in the value chain" and specifically with the sub-topic "Working conditions" were identified and assessed. The following table presents the impact that emerges as material from the Group’s Double Materiality Assessment.

Impact

Positive

Existing

Ensuring workforce safety across the value chain

A safe working environment for the workforce in the value chain, through a strong and effective health and safety management system in existing and new Group operations.

For the year 2024, the related risks, opportunities, or negative impact associated with the workers in the value chain were not considered as material.
Regarding the positive material impact, the Group consistently strives to enhance working conditions and ensure a safe working environment for all. In this context, the Group acknowledges the importance of supporting a fair workplace and actively works towards this goal by creating jobs that provide decent wages, safe working conditions, and an inclusive environment where workers in the value chain can freely express their concerns and exercise their rights to association. The types of workers in the value chain who are positively affected or could potentially be benefited include those employed at the Group's facilities who are not part of its own workforce, workers engaged in joint venture activities or special purpose entities, and those employed by entities in the upstream and downstream value chain. The Group promotes the improvement of working conditions in all countries and regions of operation as stated in the Procurement Policy.
Policies and actions
3.2.2Policies related to value chain workers [S2-1]
The Group has adopted policies that cover the identification, assessment, management, and/or enhancement of the material positive impact related to the Health and Safety of workers in the value chain. These policies are disclosed in accordance with the minimum requirements set out by ESRS 2 (MDR-P).
Ensuring safe working conditions extends beyond the Group’s own workforce and includes all workers in the value chain, such as suppliers and subcontractors. The Health, Safety, and Environment Policy encompasses workers within the value chain and reflects the Group's commitment to implementing all possible measures and procedures to minimize and/or eliminate related adverse impacts. Similarly, the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Policy outlines the measures, goals, and initiatives established for health and safety issues, including workers in the value chain such as contractors, subcontractors, and joint venture workers.
Additionally, the Group's commitment to the protection of human rights, including labor rights, is described in the Human Rights Policy. The Policy explicitly recognizes workers in the value chain (subcontractors) as one of the categories of stakeholders included within its scope.
More information about the above policies and how they address impacts on human and labor rights can be found in section S1 regarding the Group's own workforce. Further details about the Code of Conduct are described in chapter G1.
Moreover, the Group has adopted the Procurement Policy, which sets out the fundamental principles for suppliers and partners. This Policy serves as a reference point for the expected professional conduct from all stakeholders collaborating with the Group. It applies to all procurement processes of the Group and its subsidiaries in every country of operation and is considered in partnerships and joint ventures.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
201
The Procurement Policy establishes clear expectations for the conduct and operations of partners, covering areas such as respect for human rights, health and safety promotion, elimination of discrimination, freedom of association, and prohibition of forced and child labor. In terms of labor practices, the Policy includes provisions to enhance occupational health and safety, reinforcing the Group’s commitment to work with suppliers, partners, and subcontractors who contribute to creating a supply chain that respects the principles of sustainability and social responsibility.
In this context, supplier contracts include mandatory compliance clauses with applicable national legislation on occupational health and safety, as well as other legal requirements. The Group frequently reviews suppliers’ and partners’ contracts, considering health and safety criteria, and does not hesitate to terminate the cooperation if these criteria are not adequately met.
The Policy has been approved and enforced by the Group’s CEO, along with all the amendments or additions, and is published on the website. The Group ensures that suppliers, partners, and subcontractors meet the required conditions, while the responsibility for monitoring the implementation of the Policy is assigned to the Procurement Director, in collaboration with the Regulatory Compliance Officer. Monitoring and control mechanisms that can be utilized include:
Collection and evaluation of Due Diligence questionnaires.
Inspections of suppliers and partners.
3.2.3Processes for engaging with value chain workers about impacts [S2-2]
The Group has established specific procedures to promote collaboration with workers in the value chain, aiming to foster mutual trust. The collaboration process is similar to the one described in the chapter Processes for engaging with own workers and workers’ representatives about impacts [S1-2]”.
Collaboration involves interaction with a variety of business sectors (such as suppliers of materials, machinery and equipment, energy and fuel providers, water suppliers, insurance companies, etc.), considering the scope of activities. The cooperation with these stakeholder groups takes place both directly and indirectly through their legal representatives ensuring effective communication, consistency, and transparency to effectively address current challenges in business activities.
During the Double Materiality process, the Group considered the opinions of the aforementioned stakeholders at the impact assessment stage to accurately reflect on relevant impacts. Through their active participation, the Group collects valuable data and feedback, which are utilized for the continuous improvement of practices and strategies. The Group aims to develop a more resilient, efficient, and stakeholder-focused organization. Additionally, the Group enhances the feedback process regarding its sustainability strategy and actions, at least on an annual basis, through multiple communication channels, such as supplier meetings and audits.
Recognizing the importance of understanding the views of workers belonging to vulnerable groups, specific communication channels have been activated, such as anonymous questionnaires and dedicated communication lines, which allow and facilitate the submission of any concerns or reports without fear of retaliation.
The ESG Committee is responsible for ensuring that the interaction process with workers in the value chain is conducted effectively and consistently. The Committee implements measures to enhance
GEK TERNA GROUP

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
202
communication and encourage active participation, fostering an environment where workers feel comfortable expressing their views and concerns.
Finally, the Group assesses the effectiveness of its collaboration procedures with workers in the value chain using specific performance indicators. These indicators pertain to the rate at which workers in the value chain participate in surveys for the Double Materiality Assessment, as well as their engagement in feedback processes. The Group assesses the feedback received from workers in the value chain and creates plans and strategies to respond to their needs.
3.2.4Processes to remediate negative impacts and channels for value chain workers to raise concerns [S2-3]
The Group's approach to addressing issues arising in the value chain is based on the principles of transparency, trust, and efficient mitigation of impacts. The Group has established specific policies and procedures through which workers in the value chain, partners, and suppliers can report concerns. In addition, the Group has set a grievance mechanism that significantly contributes to the assessment and resolution of potential issues arising from its activities, aiming to continuously improve the working conditions.
Workers within the value chain have access and are encouraged to use all available reporting channels to confidentially disclose any inappropriate or illegal behavior. The Group communicates information about this mechanism through internal communication channels, and detailed instructions for submitting reports are available on the website. In addition, the Group assesses whether the value chain workers are aware of and trust the reporting procedures, using an approach similar to that applied to its own workforce.
The details of the grievance mechanism, the procedures for recording concerns, and the policies for protecting individuals against retaliation are presented in the chapter Processes to remediate negative impacts and channels for own workforce to raise concerns [S1-3]”.
Furthermore, the Group's Procurement Policy clearly outlines the expectations for suppliers to fully utilize the reporting mechanisms available to all stakeholders. The supplier evaluation process places particular emphasis on their ability to meet these requirements and align with the provisions of the Code of Conduct.
During the reporting period, no negative impacts related to the workers in the Group's value chain were identified. This highlights the effectiveness of the preventive measures implemented by GEK TERNA Group to foster a positive and responsible environment for all stakeholders.
3.2.5Taking action on material impacts on value chain workers, and approaches to managing material risks and pursuing material opportunities related to value chain workers, and effectiveness of those action [S2-4]
To effectively manage the material impacts related to workers in the value chain, GEK TERNA Group develops appropriate action plans in alignment with the ESRS 2 MDR-A specifications. The Group, aiming to ensure a safe working environment, takes several measures and implements actions on an annual basis, preventing potential impacts related to health and safety, such as:
Implementing a certified system based on the international standard Occupational Health & Safety Management System ISO 45001:2018.
GEK TERNA GROUP

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
203
Adopting appropriate procedures and allocating necessary resources for the protection of every worker.
Providing training on Health and Safety issues to strengthen and instill a common safety culture among all.
Executing health and safety plans for all projects and facilities.
Enforcing the Procurement Policy and the ESG criteria for the evaluation and selection of suppliers and partners.
The Group's initiatives align with those implemented for its own workforce. Additional details can be found in the chapter titled Taking action on material impacts on own workforce, and approaches to managing material risks and pursuing material opportunities related to own workforce, and effectiveness of those actions [S1-4]”.
Furthermore, in relation to suppliers, the Group has developed a framework within the Procurement Policy to enhance the health and safety of suppliers’ employees. This framework outlines the minimum requirements for collaboration with suppliers, ensuring their compliance with the Group's Health, Safety, and Environment Policy. Indicatively, suppliers are required to:
Implement and/or be certified based on internationally recognized Occupational Health and Safety system standards (ISO 45001).
Apply policies and procedures to protect the Health and Safety of their employees as well as society as a whole.
Use materials and equipment that meet high health and safety standards, in addition to their suitability and usability.
Train their personnel on Health and Safety issues.
Ensure access to clean sanitary facilities and safe drinking water.
Where necessary, provide clean and safe accommodation that meets the basic needs of their employees.
The Group's vision is to ensure that all implemented actions and initiatives, yield positive results for the workforce, including workers in the value chain. To this end, through the ESG policy, the Group has set specific Health, and Safety targets and conducts regular audits to ensure that minimum requirements are met. Achieving these targets and monitoring key performance indicators (KPIs), as outlined in the section "S2-5," are essential for tracking the Group's progress and ensuring the effectiveness of implemented actions. The Department of Health, Safety, and Environment implements these actions, while the Group's management oversees and assesses their effectiveness to ensure they lead to positive outcomes.
The Group actively monitors the enforcement of Procurement Policy, particularly focusing on Human Rights Policy and the Code of Conduct, to ensure the protection of human and labor rights for all stakeholders. Notably, throughout 2024, there have been no reported human rights issues or incidents within the value chain.
Finally, regarding the management of the overall impact in areas such as procurement, sales, and data usage, the Group adopts responsible business practices and measures to minimize any negative effects. Specifically, through the Procurement Policy, the Group ensures that the partners and suppliers comply with the highest standards of working conditions. Moreover, when conflicts arise

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
204
related to the prevention or mitigation of negative impacts, the Group activates a specialized crisis management plan. This plan involves the formation of dedicated dialogue committees composed of employee representatives, the Group’s management, and independent advisors. The goal is to collaboratively develop sustainable solutions that address the concerns of all parties involved.
Allocation of resources for managing material impacts
The Group ensures the provision of the best health and safety working conditions, implementing a certified Health & Safety System that covers the entire workforce, including workers in the value chain.
Additionally, regular training programs and seminars on occupational health and safety are conducted, which also involve the subcontractors of the projects implemented by the Group, enhancing their knowledge and technical skills. All subcontractors employed in the Group's projects participate in all general H&S training programs and, depending on the work, receive specific training (e.g., working at height, etc.).
Metrics and targets
3.2.6Targets related to managing material negative impacts, advancing positive impacts, and managing material risks and opportunities [S2-5]
GEK TERNA Group places the health and safety of all employees, including workers in the value chain, at the core of business philosophy. By setting specific goals, the Group creates an environment of trust and transparency for both employees and partners. The Group is committed to ensuring that all stakeholders understand and support these commitments, striving for continuous improvement and the enhancement of responsible business practices.
As part of the ESG policy implementation, the Group has established key health and safety objectives that extend to employees across the value chain. These include:
Maintaining zero fatalities (base year 2022).
Implementing introductory health and safety training for 100% of the Group's employees before the commencement of construction projects or the operation and maintenance of facilities.
Providing specialized health and safety training tailored to the specific roles of employees involved in construction projects or the operation and maintenance of facilities.
These goals primarily concern subcontractors insured by the Group and employees engaged in joint venture activities or special purpose entities.
Since the goals are the same as those for own workforce, more information is presented in the chapter "Targets related to managing material negative impacts, advancing positive impacts, and managing material risks and opportunities [S1-5]".
In 2025, the Group plans to develop a specific strategy and action plan to quantify the goals and establish new mechanisms for managing identified impacts. Additionally, a clear timeline will be created for the implementation of each target.

The Group's Code of Conduct, along with the corporate governance rules and policies define the framework of business operations. The set of rules and policies outlined, describe how business activities are conducted with all involved stakeholders (customers, suppliers, etc.), as well as the behavior expected from the Group's employees. The Group's Code of Conduct serves as the primary guide for all employees and associates, including suppliers, partners, and subcontractors. The Code represents the cornerstone of the principles, values, and voluntary ethical commitments that depict to the Group, fostering corporate culture and business ethics. The Code applies to all companies and subsidiaries of the Group, both nationally and internationally, encompassing all areas of activity and considering the partnerships and joint ventures. The content of the Code is in accordance with the general principles provided by International Regulations and Contracts as well as international standards ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 39001, ISO 37001, ISO 37301, and ISO 50001.
The Regulatory Compliance Committee and the Regulatory Compliance Unit, which report directly to the Board of Directors, monitor the implementation of the Code of Conduct. Additionally, the Group maintains an internal audit program conducted by the Regulatory Compliance Officer to monitor and ensure the proper implementation of the Code of Conduct and the Control Management System across all Group activities.
Furthermore, mechanisms have been established for identifying, reporting, and investigating issues related to behaviors that violate the Code of Conduct.

The Regulatory Compliance Officer is designated as the person responsible for receiving, managing, and monitoring reports, while also designing and coordinating awareness and training activities for employees to develop a culture of compliance and transparency. The Group ensures that the identity of a whistleblower is protected and not subject to retaliation, such as suspension, dismissal, intimidation, marginalization, and harassment.
Finally, the Group has developed a specific training policy for all employees and implements an extensive program to enhance awareness of the Code of Conduct.

Strategy
4.2.2Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model [SBM-3]
The value creation, strategy, and business model of an organization are closely interconnected concepts that influence each other and determine the success and sustainability of the organization. The strategy and business model are aligned and support the process through which the organization enhances the value it offers, enabling it to differentiate from competitors and maintain its competitive advantage.
GEK TERNA Group prioritizes progress that has a multiplying effect on the national economy, employment, and the entire Greek society. The constantly changing environment and increased uncertainties require targeted initiatives and strategic directions to ensure the organization’s seamless operation and the enhancement of aspects such as innovation, improved efficiency, and the adoption of new technologies that will lead to increased created value and strengthening of the organization’s reputation.
The Group considers economic prosperity, business continuity, and the empowerment of local communities as integral elements of its long-term business strategy. These elements are components of its value creation and are embedded in the Group’s strategy and business model, aiming not only to satisfy shareholders but also to create a positive impact for all stakeholders, including customers, employees, shareholders, and the broader society.
The execution of significant investment projects that meet the needs of stakeholders and set the conditions for stabilizing an increased flow of revenue and profitability on a long-term basis is a primary goal of GEK TERNA Group. Simultaneously, new ways are being explored to integrate Sustainable Development into its strategy and business model to minimize negative impacts on society or the environment. Annually, the Group develops its business plan, which assesses economic uncertainties, climate vulnerabilities, and other socio-economic challenges that may potentially affect the investment model and the distribution of economic value. The evaluation results are incorporated into the Group’s strategy for managing and promptly addressing any negative impacts and risks.
Acknowledging the significance of social responsibility and long-term value creation, the Group has incorporated these subjects into its sustainable development strategy within a dedicated pillar entitled 'Achieving a Positive Impact on Society'. Through this pillar, the Group seeks to mitigate conditions of uncertainty and risks, both financial and non-financial, ensuring its seamless economic activity. Additionally, it contributes to creating a positive imprint on society, enhancing the well-being and quality of life of people.
GEK TERNA Group acknowledges significant impacts, risks, and opportunities related to "Value Creation" through the implementation of its Double Materiality assessment. This approach considers both the financial impact and the impact of the organization’s activities on society and the environment, ensuring a holistic approach to sustainable business practices.

4.3Other relevant information
This section includes information regarding the material sustainability matter “Business Continuity”.
As outlined in the previous section, GEK TERNA Group has identified significant impacts, risks, and opportunities related to sustainability issues through its Double Materiality analysis. The topic of "Business Continuity" was taking into account when running the Double Materiality assessment. However, the impacts, risks, and opportunities identified did not exceed the materiality threshold set, and thus the topic was not deemed significant for the year 2024. The impacts, risks, and opportunities associated with the "Business Continuity" topic, which was recognized as potentially significant, are presented in the table below.

Impacts

Positive

Strengthening business resilience

Effective crisis management (emergencies affecting the Group's operation) through an integrated business continuity plan aimed at strengthening the Group's resilience.

Negative

Operational vulnerabilities from ineffective crisis management

Ineffective crisis management (emergencies affecting the Group's operation), due to the lack of mechanisms to identify risks related to business continuity.

Risk

Business continuity challenges 

Creation of disruptions in the smooth operation and business activities of the Group due to the emergence of business continuity issues (e.g., weather events, natural disasters, cyberattacks, data loss phenomena) or emergency situations (e.g., pandemic/health crisis).

Opportunity

Rising regulatory demands bolsters Group’s resilience

Increasing regulatory requirements result in the implementation of comprehensive business continuity plans that enhance the Group's resilience.

The impacts, risks, and opportunities related to the topic, pertain to the Group's activities, affecting the entire scope of the Group's operations. Further information regarding the identification and evaluation of significant impacts, risks, and opportunities is presented in the 'General Information' chapter.
The management of emergency situations and the maintenance of business continuity are topics of high priority for GEK TERNA Group to ensure its sustainability and long-term success. In this context, it is deemed appropriate to disclose information regarding the Group's approach to managing this specific sustainability issue.
Specifically, the Group has a Business Continuity Policy that outlines the conditions for ensuring uninterrupted operations, recognizing the risks that may threaten them, and providing for the allocation of all necessary resources for the implementation of the Business Continuity Management System.
The Group's Business Continuity Policy is designed with the following key objectives:
Minimizing the impacts arising from events and activities that may affect the continuity of its operations.
Ensuring the timely recovery of critical processes and the smooth return to normal.
Protecting critical data and the integrity of systems.

The Business Continuity System (BCS) aims to ensure the timely, effective, and controlled recovery of the Group's activities in the event of business continuity issues (e.g., weather events, natural disasters, cyber-attacks, etc.). Therefore, it includes procedures for coordinating the Group's resources, identifying risks and business operations that are assessed as necessary for its smooth operation. A key component of its successful implementation is the regular updating of the Risk Register to reassess the risk management plan.
In the context of ISO 22301 certification and in accordance with the approved Business Continuity Policy, the Group’s parent company has developed the following procedures, which ensure continuity of its operations:
Business Impact Analysis Procedure
System Activation Procedures
Disruptive Incident Response Procedure
Inspection Procedure
Review Procedure
Additionally, to enhance the System's readiness, annual training is conducted for the Business Continuity Plan procedures through e-learning as well as specialized training for both the Incident Response Body and its teams. Similarly, training and awareness activities related to cybersecurity are carried out for all employees. Continuous training allows employees to familiarize themselves with the preventive measures established by the Group, enabling them to respond promptly during critical events.
In the context of ensuring business continuity and organizing a safe working environment, the Group implements a comprehensive action plan, effectively utilizing all available resources. Specifically, the Group invests in technological infrastructure and human resources, developing emergency management plans that include the use of advanced IT systems and cloud services to ensure the uninterrupted operation of critical applications.
Moreover, regular readiness exercises are conducted through simulations of critical incidents, which assess and strengthen the team's response capabilities. These resources, combined with employee training and awareness in cybersecurity and business continuity, contribute to the effective management of emergency situations, protecting both employees and the Group's partners from potential risks.
Additionally, the Group records and monitors indicators related to its performance in business continuity, specifically readiness exercises for emergency incident management and confirmed instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. The Group's performance for 2024 is as follows:
50 emergency response readiness exercises.
Zero incidents of non-compliance with laws and regulations
Readiness exercises for handling emergency incidents are based on relevant methodologies for evaluating preparedness plans and include simulating various emergency scenarios and assessing the Group's response. Key assumptions involve the effectiveness of communication protocols and the availability of resources. Methodological limitations include the inability to simulate all possible
GEK TERNA GROUP

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
221
scenarios and potential deviations from actual conditions. Validation by independent bodies ensures that measurements are accurate and free from internal biases. Additionally, compliance with relevant regulatory requirements and standards is ensured, preventing potential legal and financial consequences.
For confirmed incidents of non-compliance with laws and regulations, the methodology followed involves recording and analyzing non-compliance incidents through internal audits and investigations. Key assumptions of the methodology relate to data accuracy and the completeness of reports. Similarly, limitations include both the possibility that not all incidents are reported and differences in the interpretation of regulations. The evaluation of non-compliance incidents is conducted by an external body, which ensures the validity of the report and the accuracy of the information."

It is noted that the Company owns 794,215 treasury shares, i.e. 0.7679% of the share capital, the subsidiary company TERNA S.A. owns 1,695,231 treasury shares, i.e. 1.6391% of the share capital, and the subsidiary company ILIOHORA S.A. owns 616,835 treasury shares, i.e. 0.5964% of the share capital.
Share-based Payments:
1. Company’s Stock Options:
The Extraordinary General Meeting of GEK TERNA S.A. held on 09.12.2019 approved the Company's Remuneration Policy, in accordance with articles 110 and 111 of Law 4548/2018. In the context of drawing up the Remuneration Policy, a new stock option plan (abolishing the previous one approved on 27.06.2018 by the General Meeting) was introduced to provide stock options up to the limit of 4,000,000 shares of the Company for the five-year period 2019-2023, which will address up to 20 executives.
As of 20.02.2020, during the meeting of the Company’s Board of Directors the sale price of the shares to the beneficiaries at the amount of 2.00 euros per share was adopted and the Board of Directors initially appointed 16 executives to be included in the Plan, as well as defined the specific terms and conditions of the plan, mainly related to the fulfillment of performance conditions, not related to the market (e.g. EBITDA of operating segments, distributions in the parent company, etc.). On 08.07.2020, at a new meeting, the Board of Directors approved further terms and conditions of the plan, related to meeting the terms and conditions of market performance (share price). Additionally, there is an obligation to hold the shares for two years.
At the meeting held as of 23.12.2020, the Board of Directors determined the final beneficiaries of the plan and the allocation percentage according to the proposal of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee (hereinafter "NRC").
Rights have been vested for all 4,000,000 shares under the plan and within the 2024 financial year, 1,595,966 treasury shares, which were outstanding for the completion of the plan, were allocated to the beneficiaries.
2. Bonus Shares Plan of subsidiary company
The Ordinary General Meeting of the Company on June 20, 2023 approved the Remuneration Policy, which included a plan regarding the distribution of up to three million six hundred thousand (3,600,000) treasury shares, subject to the achievement of specific targets or the occurrence of specific eventS. The plan was established for the four-year period 2023-2027. The Board of Directors was authorized to further determine the beneficiaries, the manner of exercising the right and the terms of
GEK TERNA GROUP

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
230
the plan, as well as to regulate all relevant procedural matters for the implementation of the resolution.
The Board of Directors, at its meeting of 18.01.2024, in implementation of the aforementioned decision of the General Meeting of Shareholders, accepted the recommendation of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, the terms of implementation of the Programme, as well as the Criteria - Objectives of the Programme (relating to the fulfilment of market-related objectives e.g. Increase in share price but also non-market related objectives such as e.g. targets for the commencement of specific concessions, construction of projects, EBITDA, debt service, etc.), as well as in relation to the allocation of shares per Criteria - Objectives. Following the evaluation of relevant terms and conditions of the plan, the grant date of the plan to the beneficiaries was considered to be October 1, 2024.
In order to proceed with the above Plans’ measurement, the Company and the Group applied the requirements of IFRS 2 "Share-based Payments”.

2.3Evaluation of the Board of Directors – findings and corrective actions
The Board of Directors and its Committees collectively, as well as the Chairman and the members of the Board individually, are evaluated annually for the effective fulfillment of their duties. In addition to the above, in the context of best practices, the Committee has chosen to expand the scope of evaluation by including the Independent Non-Executive Vice Chairman and the Corporate Secretary. The evaluation process is headed by the Independent Non-Executive Vice Chairman in cooperation with the Remuneration and Nominations Committee.
According to the article 3.3.4 of Corporate Governance Code adopted by the Company, the evaluation process of the Board of Directors collectively, but also of its members individually, is facilitated every three years by an external consultant. In this context, the Board of Directors along with the Remuneration and Nominations Committee was supported by the consulting firm Grant Thornton Business Solutions S.A., which acted as coordinator and external independent consultant.
The following areas were assessed:
• Collective effectiveness
• Effective Supervision of the Company's Internal Control System
• Strategy & Decision-making Process and
• Individual performance of the Board members
The members of the Board of Directors were asked to answer evaluation questionnaires about the BoD, its members, as well as about the Corporate Secretary, on a specialized electronic platform. Accordingly, the members of each Committee answered questionnaires concerning the Committee in which they participate. Each questionnaire included close-ended questions, while at the end there were also open-ended questions or a box for additional comments in order for each participant to express their thoughts/comments.
The individual evaluation questionnaires were drafted into five evaluation modules: i) suitability, ii) participation, iii) personal commitment, iv) independence of judgment and v) expertise and abilities. The Chairman of Board of Directors and CEO, the Independent Non-Executive Vice Chairman and the other BoD members were self-evaluated and evaluated by the remaining 14 BoD members, while the Corporate Secretary was evaluated by all 15 BoD members.
In addition to the responses provided with regard to self-assessment questionnaires, the assessment was based on personal interviews, and on a review of documents provided, such as minutes of the Board of Directors, Committees, Operating Regulations, etc., as well as publicly available documents.
The operation of the Board of Directors and the Board Committees was deemed “satisfactory and effective, in compliance with the regulatory requirements of Law 4706/2020 on Corporate Governance of societe anonyme companies listed on the Athens Exchange, Greece, and in alignment with most of the best practices provided by the Greek Corporate Governance Code (June 2021)”. Some areas of low importance for further improvement were also noted. The results of the assessment were discussed on the level of Board of Directors.

It is noted that in the context of the above evaluation, the Board of Directors of the Company assigned GRANT THORNTON S.A.

The Committee collaborated with the company GRANT THORNTON BUSINESS SOLUTIONS S.A. for the evaluation of both the Board of Directors and the Board Committees, as well as individually of the Chairman and CEO, the Vice Chairman, the members of Board of Directors and the Corporate Secretary for the Year 2023.
The following areas were evaluated:
• Collective effectiveness
• Effective supervision of the Company's Internal Audit System
• Strategic decision-making process, and
• Individual performance of members of the Board of Directors
The evaluation was based on personal interviews, on responses to self-assessment questionnaires, on a review of all provided documents, such as minutes of Board of Directors, Committees, Operating Regulations, etc., as well as publicly available documents.
The operation of the Board of Directors and the Board Committees was deemed "satisfactory and effective, in compliance with the regulatory requirements of Law 4706/2020 on Corporate Governance of public limited companies listed on the Athens Exchange Greece, and in line with the majority of the best practices provided by the Greek Corporate Governance Code (June 2021)”. Some areas for further improvement, but of low significance, were also noted.

The composition of the Board of Directors was recorded as follows:
Seven (7) executive members - executives of the Company, five (5) independent non-executive members, i.e. 1/3 of the total number of members, in accordance with article 5 of Law. 4706/20 and three (3) non-executive members.

6.Internal Audit System (internal audit, risk management, regulatory compliance) Corporate Governance System
The Internal Audit System (IAS) is defined as the set of rules and procedures applied by the Company aiming at the preventive and ex-post audit of operations and procedures at all levels of the Group's hierarchy and organizational structure, in order to ensure: the legality and security of management and transactions, the accuracy and reliability of published financial statements and any other financial information and announcement, as well as the efficiency of the Company's operating systems and operations.
The Board of Directors utilizes the IAS in order to protect the Company's assets, to assess the emerging risks from all its operations and to provide accurate and comprehensive information to shareholders on the actual situation and prospects of the Company, as well as on ways to address the identified risks.
For the implementation of the above, the Board of Directors determines the operating framework of internal audit, approves the procedures for conducting and evaluating its results and decides on its staffing, in compliance with the requirements of the applicable legal and institutional framework as well as the Greek Corporate Governance Code. It establishes a special Internal Audit Unit, which is independent, does not belong hierarchically to any other organizational unit and is supervised by the Company's Audit Committee, ensuring its independence and effective operation and allocating appropriate financial and human resources.
With the contribution of the Audit Committee, it evaluates the adequacy and efficiency of the internal audit unit and the degree of utilization of its reports by the Board of Directors for the continuous improvement of the Company's operation at all levels and the effective management of business risks.

The Company has a Suitability Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors, which was prepared by its Nomination Committee in accordance with the provisions of article 3 of Law 4706/2020 and the guidelines of Circular no. 60 of the Hellenic Capital Market Commission.
The Policy was approved by the General Assembly of the Company's shareholders dated 01.07.2021 following the approval of the Board of Directors on 09.06.2021 and entered into force from the date of its approval by the General Assembly.
For its compilation, the increased monitoring needs of the framework of Corporate Governance, of Risk Management, of Regulatory Compliance, were taken into account as well as the operation of Company Sectors such as Human Resources, Information Technology, Information Security Management, Health, Safety and Environment, by assigning management or supervision responsibilities to executive members of the BoD.
The Suitability Policy aims to ensure quality staffing, effective operation and fulfillment of the role of the Board of Directors based on the overall strategy and medium to long-term business goals of the Company, with the aim of promoting the corporate interest.
The aim of the policy is to have a highly effective Board of Directors. As such, it is considered a Board of Directors with a structured team, working together with a shared commitment to protecting and enhancing shareholder value, rather than a typical gathering of executives who manage corporate affairs without the capacity for constructive cooperation and development prospects.
The Policy takes into account best practices and is harmonized with the corporate culture and what is

provided for in the Articles of Association, the Internal Rules of Operation and the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code to which the Company is subject, is clear and adequately documented and is governed by the principle of transparency and proportionality while promoting diversity, meritocracy and efficiency in the selection and during the term of office of the members of the BoD.
Furthermore, during the preparation of the Policy, the size, internal organization, risk appetite, nature, scale and complexity of the Company's activities were taken into account, including, but not limited to, the sectors of construction, concessions, energy, real estate management and development, mining, waste management, services, PPP projects, the operation of large infrastructure projects.
The guiding principles governing the Suitability Policy are the following:
Compliance
Transparency
Proportionality
Diversity
Meritocracy
Effectiveness
Experience and historicity
10.Diversity Policy
The Company has and implements a diversity policy in order to promote an appropriate level of differentiation in the Board of Directors and a diverse group of members. This Policy is drafted with the belief that a Board of Directors that has a wide range of perspectives and diversity is in a better position than other Boards of Directors with a limited scope, as the existence of diversity allows the Company to take advantage of market opportunities and effectively manage risks.
The Board can perform well if it consists of a wide range of members with diverse, but complementary skills or knowledge groups. Its culture is positively shaped by different approaches and views and will certainly be rather representative of the Group's values. In this way, the Board of Directors ultimately forms a progressive and thoughtful view of its affairs, while promoting prudent risk-taking.
Through the concentration of a wide range of qualifications and skills during the selection of BoD members, the diversity of views and experiences is ensured, in order to make sound decisions.
In this context, adequate representation per gender is provided, at least as defined by the relevant legislation, as a percentage of the total members of the Board of Directors. At the same time, all necessary measures are taken so that there is no exclusion whatsoever due to discrimination based on sex, age, race, color, ethnic or social origin, religion or belief, birth, disability, age or sexual orientation, property and sole role of choice to have the criteria of individual suitability identified in this Policy.
The following table presents the profile of the Board of Directors.

The achievement of substantial and not only formal diversity within the Boards of Directors is an important guarantee for their overall effectiveness. The above table shows the diversity in gender representation (11male/7female) in the Board of Directors, with the corresponding ratio among the Company's senior managers standing at 6male/3female. In addition, the table in combination with the CVs of the members reveals the width of knowledge and skills of the members of the Board of Directors, as well as the international experience transferred by many of them. The Board of Directors combines a mixture of competences, skills and diversity of personalities, knowledge and experience that strengthens its role and contributes to its success.
Transactions with related parties and relevant information of the Board of Directors
The Company has developed a procedure for identifying related party transactions and complying with applicable law. The process was drafted aiming at transparency and supervision of the Company's transactions with related parties. The purpose of the procedure is to record the actions performed in order to identify transactions of the Company, in which persons or legal entities participate, falling under the concept of related parties and to comply with the applicable legislation. The procedure provides for the recording and maintenance of a register of related parties and the recognition of related party transactions through the checking and cross-checking of data on the counterparty in accordance with articles 99-101 of Law 4548/2018.
11.Sustainable Development Policy
Sustainable Development for GEK TERNA Group is not only a practice of alignment with international good practices but a holistic strategic approach, which is based on the regular assessment of the most important social, economic and environmental impacts of the Group's activities and their review and/or modification if necessary, through a process of dialogue and consultation with stakeholders.
Furthermore, GEK TERNA Group acts in accordance with the United Nations (UN) Global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and is an ally in the fight for social equality, prosperity and the development of a sustainable natural environment, since it has recognized that the seventeen (17) global goals are inextricably linked to the principles of Corporate Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility / Sustainable Development to which it is committed.
The responsible way of operation of the Group is reflected in the practices and procedures developed in the Group aiming at integrating the principles of Sustainable Development into its daily operation. At the same time, it is based on the strategic corporate values established by the Management, that is, respect for people and the natural environment, value creation for employees, customers, and shareholders, honesty, reliability and targeted social contribution.
The Group's policy for Sustainable Development is inextricably linked to the material issues that are regularly identified through the materiality analysis process, in order for the Group to constantly listen to the needs of stakeholders (internal and external) but also to take into account the current socio-economic trends in relation to its effects (positive or negative).
In this context, the Group's corporate responsibility is aligned with ESG (Environmental-Social-Governance) criteria/principles, in relation to four (4) axes of activity and is developed in eight (8) strategic directions/individual areas that incorporate the Group's specific approach-policy on the identified material issues:

Independent Auditor’s Report
(This report has been translated from Greek original version)
To the Shareholders of the company “GEK TERNA SA”
Report on Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements of “GEK TERNA SA” (“the Company”), which comprise the separate and consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2024, separate and consolidated statements of other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended and notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information.
In our opinion, the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the company “GEK TERNA SA” and its subsidiaries (the Group) as at 31 December 2024, their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards that have been adopted by the European Union.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) incorporated into the Greek Legislation. Our responsibilities under those standards are described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company within the entire course of our appointment, in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) incorporated into the Greek Legislation and ethical requirements relevant to the audit of separate and consolidated financial statements in Greece and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the audited period. These matters, as well as the related risk of significant misstatements, were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information included in the Annual Financial Report includes the Board of Director’s Report, the reference to which is made in the “Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements” section of our Report and Statements of the Members of the Board of Directors, but does not include the separate and consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other

332
[IMAGE]
information is materially inconsistent with the separate and consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on our audit, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate that matter to those charged with governance. No such issue has arisen.
Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards that have been adopted by the European Union and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management’s intention is to proceed with liquidating the Company and the Group or discontinuing its operations or unless the management has no other realistic option but to proceed with those actions.
The Company’s Audit Committee (Article 44, Law 4449/2017) is responsible for overseeing the Company’s and the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and consolidated financial statements as an aggregate, are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs, incorporated into the Greek Legislation, will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to affect the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these separate and consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, incorporated into the Greek Legislation, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate and consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s and the Group’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate and consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the separate and consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Independent Auditor’s Limited Assurance Report on Sustainability Statement
(This report has been translated from Greek original version)
To the Shareholders of the company “GEK TERNA SA”
We have conducted a limited assurance engagement on the consolidated Sustainability Statement of GEK TERNA SA (hereinafter the “Company” and/or “Group”), included in section Sustainability Statement of the consolidated Management Report of the Board of Directors (hereinafter the “Sustainability Statement”), for the period from 01.01.2024 to 31.12.2024.
Limited assurance conclusion
Based on the procedures performed, as described below in the paragraph “Scope of Work Performed”, as well as the evidence obtained, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that:
the Sustainability Statement has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with article 154 of L. 4548/2018 as amended and effective by L. 5164/2024, which transposed article 29(a) of EU Directive 2013/34/EU into the Greek legislation
the Sustainability Statement does not comply with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (hereinafter “ESRS”), in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/2772 of the European Commission of July 31,2023 and Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and the Council of December 14, 2022
the process carried out by the Company to identify and assess the material risks and opportunities (the "Process"), as set out in the section 1.4 “Impact, risk and opportunity management” of the Sustainability Statement, does not comply with "Disclosure Requirement IRO-1 Description of the processes to identify and assess material Impact, Risk, and Opportunities " of ESRS 2 "General Disclosures"
the disclosures in section 2.1 “Climate Change [ESRS E1]” of the Sustainability Statement do not comply with article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852
This assurance report does not extend to information on prior periods.
Basis for the conclusion
The limited assurance engagement was conducted in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 (Revised), “Assurance Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information” (hereinafter “ISAE 3000”).
The procedures in a limited assurance engagement vary in nature and timing from, and are less in extent than for, a reasonable assurance engagement. Consequently, the level of assurance obtained in a limited assurance engagement is substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had a reasonable assurance engagement been performed.
Our responsibilities are further described in the section “Auditor’s Responsibilities”.

Professional Ethics and Quality Management
We are independent of the Company and Group, throughout this engagement and have complied with the requirements of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), the ethics and independence requirements of L.4449/2017 and EU Regulation 537/2014.
Our auditing firm applies the International Standard on Quality Management 1 (ISQM 1) “Quality Management for Firms that Perform Audits or Reviews of Financial Statements, or Other Assurance or Related Services engagements”, and therefore maintains a comprehensive quality management system that includes documented policies and procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion.
Responsibilities of the Company’s Management for the Sustainability Statement
The Company’s and Group’s Management is responsible for the design and the implementation of an appropriate process to determine the required information to be included in the Sustainability Statement in accordance with the ESRS as well as for the disclosure of the Process in section 1.1 “Basis of preparation” of the Sustainability Statement.
More specifically, this responsibility includes:
Obtaining an understanding of the context in which the Company and Group activities and business relationships take place and understanding the affected stakeholders
Identifying the actual and potential impacts (both negative and positive) related to sustainability matters, as well as the risks and opportunities that affect, or could reasonably be expected to affect, the Company’s and Group’s financial position, financial performance, cash flows, access to finance or cost of capital in the short-, medium-, or long-term
Assessing the materiality of the identified impacts, risks and opportunities related to sustainability matters through the selection and application of appropriate thresholds; and
Formulating assumptions that are reasonable under the circumstances
The Company’s and Group’s Management is further responsible for the preparation of the Sustainability Statement, in accordance with article 154 of L. 4548/2018, as amended and in force by L. 5164/2024 which transposed article 29(a) of EU Directive 2013/34 into the Greek legislation.
In this context, the Company’s and Group’s Management is responsible for:
Compliance of the Sustainability Statement with the ESRS
Preparing the disclosures in section 2.1 “Climate Change [ESRS E1]” of the Sustainability Statement, in compliance with the requirements of article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852
Designing and implementing such internal controls as Management determines are necessary to ensure that the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and
Selecting and applying appropriate reporting methods, including assumptions and estimates about individual disclosures in the Sustainability Statement that have been evaluated as reasonable under the circumstances
The Company’s Audit Committee is responsible for supervising the process of the preparation of the Company’s Sustainability Statement.

Inherent limitations in preparing the Sustainability Statement
In reporting forward-looking information under ESRS, the Company’s Management is required to prepare forward-looking information based on disclosed assumptions, regarding future events and possible future actions of the Company and Group. The actual outcome of these actions may be different, as anticipated events do not often occur as expected.
As outlined in section 1.1.2 “Disclosures in relation to specific circumstances [BP-2]" in the Sustainability Report, in the calculation of Scope 3 emissions, there are factors that introduce a degree of uncertainty into the results. The non-use of primary data in several Scope 3 categories due to a lack of data availability, leads to calculations that are mainly based on secondary data and emission factors from general sources. This can lead to discrepancies between the actual emissions and the estimates recorded.
As stated in Section 2.1 'Climate Change [ESRS E1]' and in particular in Subsection 2.1.4 “Description of the processes to identify and assess material climate-related impacts, risks and opportunities [ESRS 2 IRO-1]”in the Sustainability Report, the information incorporated in the relevant disclosures is based, inter alia, on climate-related scenarios which are subject to inherent uncertainty as to the probability, the timing or impact of possible future climate-related natural and transitional impacts.
Our work covered the items listed in the “Scope of Work Performed” section to obtain limited assurance based on the procedures included in the Program. Our work does not constitute an audit or review of historical financial information, in accordance with applicable International Standards on Auditing or International Standards on Review Engagements, and therefore we do not express any assurance other than that set out in the "Scope of Work Performed" section.
Our engagement was limited to the Greek version of the 2024 Sustainability Statement. Therefore, in the event of any inconsistency in translation between the Greek and English versions, as far as our conclusions are concerned, the Greek version of the Statement prevails.
Auditor’s responsibilities
This limited assurance report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of article 154C of L. 4548/2018 and article 32A of L.4449/2017.
Our responsibility is to plan and perform the assurance engagement to obtain limited assurance as to whether the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, due to fraud or error, and to issue a limited assurance report that includes our conclusion. Misstatements may arise from fraud or error and are considered material when, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to affect the decisions of users made on the basis of the Sustainability Statement taken as a whole.
In the context of a limited assurance engagement in accordance with ISAE 3000 (Revised), we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the engagement.
Our responsibilities with respect to the Sustainability Statement, in relation to the Process, include:
Conducting risk assessment procedures, including an understanding of the relevant internal controls, to identify risks related to whether the Process, followed by the Company and Group to determine the information reported in the Sustainability Statement does not meet the applicable requirements of the ESRS, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion regarding the effectiveness of the internal controls on the Process and
Preparing and conducting procedures to assess whether the Process to identify the information reported in the Sustainability Statement is consistent with the description of the Process as disclosed in section 1.4.1 “Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities [IRO-1]” and 1.4.2 “Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model[SBM-3] of the Statement herein
© 2025 Grant Thornton Greece. All rights reserved.
341
[IMAGE]
We are further responsible for:
Conducting risk assessment procedures, including an understanding of the relevant internal controls, to identify those disclosures that may be materially misstated, whether due to fraud or error, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s and Group's internal controls
Preparing and conducting procedures related to those disclosures of the Sustainability Statement, in which a material error is likely to occur. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than that arising from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the deviations from internal controls
Scope of Work Performed
Our work includes performing procedures and obtaining assurance evidence for the purpose of forming a limited assurance conclusion and covers only the limited assurance procedures provided for in the limited assurance program issued by the 22.1.2025 decision of the Hellenic Accounting and Auditing Supervisory Oversight Board's (hereinafter "Program"), as formulated for the purpose of issuing a limited assurance report on the Company’s and Group's Sustainability Statement.
Our procedures were designed to obtain a limited level of assurance on which to base our conclusion, and which do not provide all the evidence that would be required to provide a reasonable level of assurance.

2BASIS FOR THE PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2.1Basis for the Presentation of financial statements
The Company’s separate and consolidated Financial Statements as of 31st December 2024 covering the annual period starting on January 1st until December 31st 2024 have been prepared according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), published by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and according to their interpretations, published by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and adopted by the European Union until 31st December 2024.
The Group applies all the International Accounting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards, and their Interpretations, which apply to the Group’s activities. The relevant accounting policies, a summary of which is presented below in Note 4, have been applied consistently in all the periods presented.
2.2Going concern
The Group’s management estimates that the Company and its subsidiaries hold sufficient resources, which ensure their operation as “Going Concern” in the foreseeable future.
The decision of the Management to use the going concern principle is based on the estimates related to potential effects of the war conflict that is raging both in the wider region of Ukraine and in the Middle East.
The Management has estimated that there is no material uncertainty regarding the continuation of the activity of the Group and the Company, thus implementing the framework for preparing the financial statements for the financial year ended on 31.12.2024.
2.3Basis of measurement
The accompanying separate and consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31st, 2024, have been prepared according to the principle of historical cost, apart from the cases of investment property, investments in equity securities, derivative financial instruments and financial assets recorded at fair value through profit or loss, which are measured at fair value.
2.4Presentation currency
The presentation currency is Euro (the currency of the Group’s parent domicile) and all the amounts are presented in thousand Euro unless otherwise mentioned.
2.5Comparability
The comparative items of the Financial Statements for the year ended 31.12.2024 have not been revised The items of the consolidated Statement of Total Comprehensive Income and the consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended 31.12.2023 have been restated to distinctly reflect continuing and discontinued operations. The results of the Renewable Energy sector for both the current period (01.01-28.11.2024) and the year 2023 are included in a separate line of the Consolidated
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
358
Statement of Total Comprehensive Income titled “Net Earnings/(losses) after taxes from discontinued operations” (see Note 7.1).
2.6Use of estimates
The preparation of the Financial Statements according to IFRS requires the use of estimates and judgments on the application of the Company’s accounting policies. Judgments, assumptions and estimates of the Management affect the amount of valuation of several asset and liability items, the amount recognized during the year regarding specific income and expenses as well as the presented estimates of contingent liabilities.
Assumptions and estimates are assessed on an on-going basis according to historic experience and other factors, including expectations of future event outcomes, considered reasonable given the current conditions. The estimates and assumptions relate to the future and, consequently, the actual results may differ from the accounting calculations.
The areas that require the highest degree of judgment as well as the areas in which estimates and assumptions have a significant effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in Note 3 of the Financial Statements.
2.7New Standards, Interpretations and Amendments to Standards
The accounting principles applied for the preparation of the Financial Statements are the same as those applied for the preparation of the annual Financial Statements of the Group and the Company for FY ended as of 31 December 2023, apart from the adoption of several new accounting standards, whose application was mandatory in the European Union for FYs beginning as at January 1st, 2024(see Notes 2.7.1 and 2.7.2).
2.7.1New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that are effective and have been adopted by the European Union
The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), are adopted by the European Union, and their application is mandatory from or after 01.01.2024.
Amendments to IFRS 16 “Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2024)
In September 2022, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 16 “Leases” which add to requirements explaining how a company accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction. A sale and leaseback is a transaction for which a company sells an asset and leases that same asset back for a period of time from the new owner. IFRS 16 includes requirements on how to account for a sale and leaseback at the date the transaction takes place. However, IFRS includes no specific subsequent measurement requirements for the transaction, specifically where some or all the lease payments are variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate. The issued amendments add to the sale and leaseback requirements in IFRS 16, thereby supporting the consistent application of the Accounting Standard. These amendments will not change the accounting for leases other than those arising in a sale and leaseback transaction. The amendments have no impact on the

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
359
Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01.01.2024.
Amendments to IAS 1 'Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current' (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2024)
The amendments clarify the principles of IAS 1 for the classification of liabilities as either current or non‐current. The amendments clarify that an entity’s right to defer settlement must exist at the end of the reporting period. The classification is not affected by management’s intentions or the counterparty’s option to settle the liability by transfer of the entity’s own equity instruments. Also, the amendments clarify that only covenants with which an entity must comply on or before the reporting date will affect a liability’s classification. The amendments require a company to disclose information about these covenants in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments have no impact on the Consolidated and Separate financial statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with an effective date of 01.01.2024.
Amendments to IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”: Supplier Finance Arrangements (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2024)
In May 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued Supplier Finance Arrangements, which amended IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The new amendments require an entity to provide additional disclosures about its supplier finance arrangements. The amendments require additional disclosures that complement the existing disclosures in these two standards. They require entities to provide users of financial statements with information that enable them a) to assess how supplier finance arrangements affect an entity’s liabilities and cash flows and b) to understand the effect of supplier finance arrangements on an entity’s exposure to liquidity risk and how the entity might be affected if the arrangements were no longer available to it. The amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 are effective for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2024. The amendments have no impact on the Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01.01.2024.
2.7.2New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that have not been applied yet or have not been adopted by the European Union
The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), but their application has not started yet or they have not been adopted by the European Union.
Amendments to IAS 21 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2025)
In August 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued amendments to IAS 21. The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates that require entities to provide more useful information in their financial statements when a currency cannot be exchanged into another currency. The amendments introduce a definition of currency exchangeability and the process by which an entity should assess this exchangeability. In addition, the amendments provide guidance on how an entity should estimate a spot exchange rate in cases where a currency is not exchangeable and require
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
360
additional disclosures in cases where an entity has estimated a spot exchange rate due to a lack of exchangeability. The amendments to IAS 21 are effective for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2025. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01.01.2025.
IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 “Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2026)
In May 2024, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments which amended IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”. Specifically, the new amendments clarify when a financial liability should be derecognized when it is settled by electronic payment. Also, the amendments provide additional guidance for assessing contractual cash flow characteristics to financial assets with features related to ESG-linked features (environmental, social, and governance). IASB amended disclosure requirements relating to investments in equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income and added disclosure requirements for financial instruments with contingent features that do not relate directly to basic lending risks and costs. The amendments are effective from annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.
Annual Improvements to IFRS-Volume 11 (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2026)
In July 2024, the IASB issued the Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards, which include minor amendments to the following accounting standards: IFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”, IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”, IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”, IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”. The above amendments are effective for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2026. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 "Nature-dependent Electricity Contracts" (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2026)
On December 18, 2024, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued amendments to IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" and IFRS 7 "Financial Instruments: Disclosures," aimed at helping companies to present more accurately the financial impacts of nature-dependent electricity reference contracts, known as Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). These contracts are used by companies to secure the supply of electricity from renewable sources, such as wind and solar energy. However, the amount of energy produced can vary due to external factors, such as weather conditions. The amendments aim to optimally reflect these contracts in financial statements by: a) clarifying the requirements for applying the "own-use" concept, b) allowing hedge accounting when these contracts are used as hedging instruments and c) adding new disclosure requirements to help investors better understand the impact of these contracts on companies' financial results and cash flows. The amendments are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026, with early

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
361
adoption permitted. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.
IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2027)
In April 2024, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued a new Standard, IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”. The objective of the Standard is to improve how information is communicated in an entity’s financial statements, particularly in the statement of profit or loss and in its notes to the financial statements. Specifically, the Standard will improve the quality of financial reporting due to a) the requirement of defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, b) the requirement of the disclosure about management-defined performance measures and c) the new principles for aggregation and disaggregation of information.
The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.
IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01.01.2027)
In May 2024, the International Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard, IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures”. The new standard allows eligible entities to elect to apply IFRS 19 reduced disclosure requirements instead of the disclosure requirements set out in other IFRS. IFRS 19 works alongside other IFRS, with eligible subsidiaries applying the measurement, recognition and presentation requirements set out in other IFRS and the reduced disclosures outlined in IFRS 19. This simplifies the preparation of IFRS financial statements for the subsidiaries that are in-scope of this standard while maintaining at the same time the usefulness of those financial statements for their users. IFRS 19 is effective from annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union.
2.7.3 Change in Accounting Policy
IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" replaces IAS 39 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement" and includes three phases: "Classification and Measurement of Financial Assets," "Impairment" and "Hedge Accounting." The GEK TERNA Group applied the first two phases from January 1, 2018, as their application was mandatory, while it continued to apply IAS 39 for hedge accounting until December 31, 2023, as the standard provides this option regarding the third phase "Hedge Accounting."
On January 1, 2024, the GEK TERNA Group applied the hedge accounting part of IFRS 9, with no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements. The application of the standard was implemented prospectively without restating comparative figures for previous years.
3SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENTS
Preparation of Financial Statements in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) requires the Management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions which affect assets
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
362
and liabilities, contingent receivables, and liabilities disclosures as well as revenue and expenses during the presented periods.
In particular, the amounts included in or affecting the financial statements, as well as the related disclosures, are estimated through making assumptions about values or conditions that cannot be known with certainty at the time of preparation of the financial statements and, therefore, actual results may differ from what has been estimated. An accounting estimate is considered significant when it is material to the financial position and income statement of the Group and requires the most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments of the Management. Estimates and judgments of the Management are based on past experience and other factors, including expectations for future events, judged to be reasonable in the circumstances. Estimates and judgments are continually reassessed on the basis of all the available data and information.
Key estimates and evaluations referring to the data whose development could affect the financial statements items in the upcoming 12 months are as follows:
3.1Significant judgments of the Management
The significant judgments and assumptions made by management concerning future and other key sources of uncertainty at the date of the financial statements that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are as follows:
i)Acquisition of “business” according to the definition provided in IFRS 3 or acquisition of assets
In accordance with IFRS 3 "Business Combinations", the Group determines whether a transaction or other event constitutes a business combination in accordance with the relevant definition of the Standard, i.e. whether the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed constitute a "business". In the event the acquired assets do not constitute a business, then the Group manages the transaction or other event as an acquisition of an asset. According to IFRS 3, the term "business" is defined as an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return in the form of dividends, lower costs, or other economic benefits directly to investors or other owners, members, or participants. The accounting treatment of a business combination is carried out in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 4.2 , while the accounting treatment of acquisition of an asset (or group of assets) which do not constitute a "business" is carried out in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 4.3.
ii)Recognition of revenue from construction contracts
Managing revenue and expenses from a construction contract, depends on whether the final result of the contract implementation can be reliably estimated (and is expected to bring profit to the constructor or the result of the implementation are expected to be loss-bearing). When the outcome of a construction contract can be reliably estimated, then revenue and expense of the contract are recognized over the term of the contract, respectively, as revenue and expense.
The Group uses the completion stage to determine the appropriate amount of revenue and expense which it will recognize in a specific period. In particular, based on the input method under IFRS 15, the construction cost at every reporting date is compared to the total budgeted cost in order to determine the percentage of completion. The completion stage is measured on the basis of the contractual costs
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
363
incurred until the reporting date in relation to the total estimated cost of every construction project. The Group, therefore, makes significant estimates regarding the gross result with which every construction contract will be implemented (total budgeted cost of the construction contract implementation).
iii)Energy sector revenue recognition (non-invoiced revenue)
The Group estimates the consumption of electricity and natural gas, which has not yet been invoiced for retail customers. In particular, the Group measures and records specific revenues from sales for which final clearances have not been received from ADMIE and the Natural Gas Distribution Administrator. Such revenues are calculated using historical data and forecasts for the consumption of electricity and natural gas for each energy consumption meter.
iv)Consolidation of subsidiaries in which the Group holds a non-majority percentage of voting rights (de facto control)
The Group assesses in each reporting period the existence of control over subsidiaries in which it holds a participation percentage of voting rights of less than 50%, based on the conditions specified in IFRS 10. Specifically, the Group, based on its existing rights, assesses whether it has the possibility to direct any business activities that significantly affect the return of the subject companies, i.e. the relevant activities, assessing in addition any cases where the Group maintains significant participation / investment, has the right to receive variable returns from its participation in the subject companies and has the ability to influence the level of their returns.
3.2Estimates and assumptions
Specific amounts that are either included or affect the Financial Statements and the related disclosures are estimated, necessitating to make assumptions about values or conditions that cannot be known with certainty during the period of the Financial Statements preparation. An accounting estimate is considered significant when it is material to the financial position and the income statement of the Group and requires most difficult, subjective or complex judgments of the Management. The Group assesses such estimates on an ongoing basis, based on historical results and experience, through meetings with specialists, applying trends and other methods considered reasonable in the circumstances, as well as making projections regarding potential changes in the future.
i)Recognition of deferred tax assets
The extent, to which deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, is based on the judgment regarding the extent, to which it is probable that sufficient taxable profits will be offset with these tax losses.
In order to determine the amount of a deferred tax asset that can be recognized, significant judgments and estimates of the Group’s Management are required, based on future taxable profits, combined with future tax strategies to be pursued, as well as the uncertainties dominating in various tax frameworks, within which the Group operates (for further information please refer to Note 34).
ii)Impairment of non-financial assets and goodwill
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in the effective conditions indicate that their book value may not be recoverable in accordance with the accounting policy

Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
364
described in Note 4.8. Goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite economic lives and intangible assets with finite economic lives for which amortization has not yet begun are tested for impairment at least annually.
iii)Useful lives of depreciated assets
For the purpose of calculating depreciation, the Group examines the useful life and residual value of tangible and intangible assets in every reporting period in the light of technological, institutional and economic developments as well as the experience of their exploitation. As at 31.12.2024 the Management estimated that the economic life of the other depreciable assets represent their expected useful value.
iv)Fair value measurement of investment property
In order to measure the value of its investment property, in cases when active market prices are available, the Group determines the fair value based on the valuation reports prepared by independent valuers. If no objective data is available, in particular, due to economic conditions, the Management measures such values based on its past experience, taking into account the available data (further information is presented in Note 11).
v)Fair value measurement
The Management uses valuation techniques to determine the fair value of financial instruments (when no active market prices are available) and non-financial assets. This procedure involves making estimates and assumptions about the consideration that market participants would pay to acquire these financial instruments.
The Management bases its assumptions on observable data, but it is not always feasible. In such cases, the Management uses the best available information for its estimates, based on its past experience, also taking into account the available information. Estimated fair values may differ from the actual values that would be made in the context of an ordinary transaction at the reporting date of the financial statements (further information is provided in Note 47).
The Group uses derivative financial instruments to manage a range of risks including interest rate and commodity prices risks. For the purpose of determining an effective hedging rate, the Group requires both - to declare its hedging strategy and to estimate that the hedge will be effective throughout the term of the hedging instrument (derivative). Further information regarding the use of derivatives is provided in Note 31.
vi)Inventory
To facilitate valuation of inventories, the Group estimates, based on statistical valuation reports and market conditions, the expected selling prices and the costs of processing and disposing the items per inventory category.
vii)Estimates when calculating value in use of Cash Generating Units (CGU)
The Group conducts a related impairment test of investments in subsidiaries and associates whenever there is evidence of impairment in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36. If it is established that there are reasons for impairment, it is necessary to calculate value in use and fair value less costs to sell regarding every CGU. Recoverable amounts of CGUs are determined for impairment tests
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
365
purposes, based on the value in use calculation, which requires making estimates. For the purpose of calculating value in use, estimated cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money as well as the risks associated with particular CGU (further information is provided in Note 12).
viii)Provision for income tax
Provision for income tax based on IAS 12 is calculated by estimating the taxes to be paid to tax authorities and includes the current income tax for every financial year and a provision for additional taxes that might arise during tax inspections.
The Group’s companies are subject to various income taxation legislations. Significant estimates are required in order to determine the total provision for income tax, as presented in the Statement of Financial Position.
The final tax determination is uncertain in respect of specific transactions and calculations. The Group recognizes liabilities for the projected tax issues based on the calculations as to the extent to which additional taxation will arise. In cases where the final tax result differs from the initially recognized amount, the differences affect the provisions for income tax and deferred tax for the period when it had been determined (for further information please refer to Note 34).
ix)Provisions for rehabilitation of environment
The Group makes provision for its related obligations for the dismantling of technical equipment and the restoration of the environment resulting from the applicable environmental legislation or from binding practices of the Group. Provision for rehabilitation of environment reflects the present value, as at the reporting date (based on the appropriate discount rate) of the rehabilitation obligation less the estimated recoverable amount of the materials, estimated to be disposed of and sold (further information is provided in Notes 4.15 and 27).
x)Provision for rehabilitation or maintenance obligation under the Motorways Concession Agreement
The concession agreement with the Greek State includes the contractual obligation of the concessionaire to maintain the infrastructure at a defined level of service provision or to restore the infrastructure to a specific condition before delivering it to the grantor at the end of the concession period. Calculating the amount to be considered as a provision for rehabilitation or maintenance obligation is a complex procedure, relying on judgments that have to do with the cost and timing of such projects implementation as well as the actual costs that may differ from the projected costs (further information is presented in Note 27).
xi)Contingent liabilities and receivables
The existence of contingent liabilities and receivables requires the management to make assumptions and judgments on on-going basis about the probability that future events will occur or not occur as well as the possible consequences that these events may have on the Company’s operations. Determining contingent liabilities and receivables is a complex procedure that includes judgments regarding future events, laws, regulations, etc. Changes in judgements or interpretations are likely to lead to an increase or decrease in the Company's contingent liabilities in the future. When additional

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
366
information becomes available, the Group's Management reviews the facts, based on which it may also have to review its estimates (see Note 49).
xii)Provisions for expected credit losses from receivables from clients
The Group and the Company apply the simplified approach under the provisions of IFRS 9 for calculation of expected credit losses. Under the aforementioned approach, provision for impairment is measured at an amount equal to the expected lifetime loss for the receivables from customers and the contractual assets. The Group and the Company have made provisions for bad receivables in order to adequately cover the loss that can be reliably estimated and arises from these receivables. In every reporting period, the provision that has been made is adjusted and the changes are recognized in the income statement (further information is presented in Notes 16, 18, 19 and 20).
xiii)Acquisition of a company or business
At initial recognition, the assets as well as the liabilities of the acquired company are included in the consolidated financial statements at their fair values. In measuring fair values, Management uses estimates of future cash flows, however the actual results may differ. Any change in the measurement after initial recognition affects the measurement of goodwill in Note 7.1).
xiv)Valuation of cash flow hedging agreements
The Group uses financial derivatives and specifically it enters into interest rate swaps to hedge its risk linked to fluctuations of interest rates and into contracts to hedge the risks associated with volatile energy sale prices. The swap agreements are valued according to market estimations regarding the trend of relevant interest rates for periods up to thirty years and with regard to the course of energy prices accordingly in each case. Based on these estimates, the cash flows are discounted in order to determine the liability or asset at the reporting date of the financial statements (further information in Note 31).
xv)Support of operation and recognition of financial instruments receivables
The subsidiary CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY S.A. regarded the contractual obligation of the Greek state to support operation as a hybrid financial instrument that includes an embedded derivative and a non-derivative host contract. Subsequently, the Group's subsidiary in question unbundled the embedded derivative from the host contract and, in accordance with IAS 39 (under the initial application) and IFRS 9, recognized a derivative financial item (receivables), i.e. the component of operating support that covers future payments of interest rate derivatives. Calculation of fair value of the receivable includes estimates of the credit risk of the counterparty (Greek State), an estimate of future outflows and the existence of a contingent time difference between the payments of the derivatives and the collection of operating support. The above estimates are re-evaluated on every reporting date. Further information is provided in Notes 4.10 and 31.

4SUMMARY OF KEY ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
A. Significant Accounting Principles
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the accompanying Company and Consolidated Financial Statements are as follows:
4.1Basis for consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of GEK TERNA and its subsidiaries as at 31.12.2024. The date of preparation of the financial statements of the subsidiaries coincides with that of the parent.
Intra-group transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Where required, the accounting policies of subsidiaries have been amended to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group. Note 5 provides a complete list of consolidated subsidiaries in line with the participating interest, held by the Group.
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date the Group acquires control over them and they cease to be consolidated at the date of termination of this control.
Non-controlling interests constitute the component of equity of a subsidiary not directly or indirectly attributable to the parent. Losses relating to non-controlling interests (minority interests) of a subsidiary may exceed the rights of non-controlling interests in the subsidiary's equity.
Gains or losses and every component of other comprehensive income are accounted for both by the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests, even if, as a result, such non-controlling interests present deficit.
(a) Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all the companies, which the Parent has the power to control directly or indirectly through other subsidiaries and they are fully consolidated (full consolidation). The Company has and exercises control through its ownership of the majority of the subsidiaries’ voting rights. In order to define the control, the following conditions are examined, as recorded in IFRS 10:
i)The parent company has authority over the investee, since it can direct the related (operational and financial) activities. This is achieved through appointing the majority of the members of the Board of Directors and the directors of the subsidiary by the Management of the parent.
ii)The parent company holds rights with variable returns from its investment in the subsidiary. Other non-controlled investments are greatly dispersed and, therefore, cannot materially influence decision-making.
iii)The parent company may exercise its authority over the subsidiary to influence the amount of its returns. This is the result of decision-making on subsidiary’s related matters through controlling the decision-making bodies (Board of Directors and Directors).

368
Changes in ownership interest in a subsidiary
In case of changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary, it is examined whether the changes result in a loss of control or not.
Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners). In such circumstances, the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests shall be adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received shall be recognized directly in equity.
In case the parents’ ownership interest changes in such a way that there is loss of control, then the parent shall record the necessary accounting entries and recognize the result from the sale (derecognition of the assets, goodwill and liabilities of the subsidiary as of the date of loss of control, derecognition of the book value of non-controlling interests, determination of the result from the sale).
When determining the sale result, any amount previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that company is accounted for using the same method as would be applied by the Group in the event of direct sale of its assets or liabilities. That is to say, the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to the income statement.
Following loss of control of a subsidiary, any investment in the former subsidiary is recognized according to the provisions of IFRS 9.
Investments in subsidiaries in the separate financial statements
Investments of the parent in its consolidated subsidiaries are measured at acquisition cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Impairment test is carried out in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36.
(b) Joint arrangements
The Group applies IFRS 11 to all its joint arrangements. Under IFRS 11, joint arrangements are classified as joint operations or joint ventures, depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor.
Jointly controlled entities are consolidated using the proportionate consolidation method (if it is a joint operation) in the Company or the equity method (if it is a joint venture) in the Group.
Joint operations: Joint operations are accounted for using the proportional consolidation method. In particular, the Group recognizes in the consolidated financial statements: (i) its assets (including its share in any of its assets it holds jointly), (ii) its liabilities (including its share of any jointly held liabilities), (iii) its share in the proceeds of the sale from disposal of joint venture, and (iv) its expenses (including its share in any jointly incurred expenses). Essentially, these are tax joint operations, which do not constitute a separate entity within the framework of the IFRS. Their assets and liabilities are incorporated according to the effective proportions in the financial statements of the Company.
Joint ventures: Joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, under which participating interests in joint ventures are initially recognized at cost and subsequently readjusted in compliance

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
369
with the Group's share of the profits (or losses) and other comprehensive income of the joint ventures. Under the joint venture model, joint venture schemes are the ones in which members have rights over the net assets of the investments and are liable up to the extent of their contribution to the capital of the company. If the Group's participating interest in joint venture losses exceeds the value of the participating interest, the Group discontinues recognizing further losses unless it has undertaken liabilities or has made payments on behalf of the joint venture. Allocation of operating results and other comprehensive results is proportional to the participating interest.
Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and joint ventures are eliminated according to the Group's participating interest in joint ventures. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless there is evidence of the transaction for impairment of the transferred asset.
Consolidation takes into account the percentage held by the Group, effective as at consolidation date. The structure of the business scheme is the key and determining factor in defining accounting treatment.
The accounting policies of jointly controlled entities are consistent with those adopted and applied by the Group. The date of preparation of the financial statements of jointly controlled entities coincides with that of the parent Company.
Investments in jointly controlled operations in the separate financial statements
Investments of the parent in joint operations are included in the separate financial statements in proportion. In particular, assets and liabilities are proportionally incorporated in the Company's financial statements.
Investments in joint ventures in the separate financial statements
Investments of the parent in joint ventures are measured at acquisition cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Impairment test is carried out in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36.
(c) Associates
Associates are entities over which the Group exercises significant influence, but does not exercise control. The Group's investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. The assumptions used by the Group suggest that holding participating interest of between 20% and 50% of a company's voting rights implies a significant influence over the investee unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case. Investments in associates are initially recognized at acquisition cost and then consolidated using the equity method. According to this method, investments in associates are recognized at acquisition cost less any changes in the Group's participating interest in Equity after the initial acquisition date, less any provisions for impairment of those participating interests’ value.
Consolidated statement of total comprehensive income includes the proportion of the Group in the total income of associates. If the Group's participating interest in an Associate's loss exceeds the value of the participating interest, the Group discontinues recognizing further losses unless it has settled liabilities or made payments on the part of the affiliate and, in general, settled the payments arising from the shareholding. If the associate subsequently produces profits, the investor starts once again recognizing its share of profits only if its share of profits equals the share of losses it had not recognized.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
370
Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and associates are eliminated according to the Group's participating interest in associates. Unrealized losses are eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of impairment of the transferred asset.
Accounting policies followed by associates do not differ from those used by the Group and the date of preparation of the financial statements of associates is the same as that of the parent.
Investments in associates in the separate financial statements
Investments of the parent in consolidated associates are measured at acquisition cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Impairment test is carried out in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36.
4.2Business Combinations
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated (full consolidation) applying the acquisition method from the date when control over them has been acquired and cease to be consolidated from the date when such control is no longer effective. The acquisition of a subsidiary by the Group is accounted for using the acquisition method. As at the acquisition date, the acquirer recognizes the goodwill arising on the acquisition transaction as the excess between:
the aggregation of (i) the transferred consideration, measured at fair value; (ii) the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquire (measured at fair value or the proportion of non-controlling interests in its net identifiable assets and (iii) in a business combination that is completed in stages, the fair value at the date of acquisition of the acquirer's shareholding previously acquired in the acquire, less
the net fair value of the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities as at the acquisition date.
Goodwill is tested for potential impairment on annual basis and the balance between its carrying amount and recoverable amount is recognized as an impairment loss, burdening the income statement for the period.
The costs arising under acquisition of investments in subsidiaries (e.g. fees of consultants, lawyers, accountants, appraisers and other professionals and consultant’s fees) are recognized as expenses and burden the income statement for the period when they are incurred.
Otherwise, when the acquire acquires participating interest, in which, at the acquisition date, net value of assets and assumed liabilities exceeds the transferred consideration, then the issue is classified as an acquisition opportunity. Following the necessary reviews, the excess arising from the above balance is recognized as profit in the income statement for the period.
Any potential consideration paid by the Group is initially recognized at fair value on the date of acquisition. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that meet the conditions for their classification as an asset or liability are recognized in accordance with IFRS 9 in the results. Any consideration recognized in equity is not revised and the subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

371
4.3Acquisition of entities that do not constitute a “business” according to the definition of IFRS 3 – Acquisition of assets
In accordance with IFRS 3 "Business Combination", the Group determines whether a transaction or other event constitutes a business combination as defined in the Standard, i.e. whether the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a "business". In the event that the acquired assets are not a business, the Group shall account for the transaction or other event as an asset acquisition. According to IFRS 3, the term "business" identifies an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits directly to investors or to other owners, members or participants. The accounting treatment of a business combination (see accounting policy 4.2 "Business combination" does not apply to the acquisition of an asset (or group of assets) that does not constitute a "business".
In this context, in the case of acquisition of entities that do not meet the definition of "business" in IFRS 3:
-The acquirer shall identify the individual identifiable assets acquired (including those assets that meet the definition of, and recognition criteria for intangible assets in IAS 38) and liabilities assumed. In accordance with IFRS 3.2 (b), the cost of the group shall be allocated to the individual identifiable assets and liabilities on the basis of their relative fair values at the date of purchase.
-Goodwill or gain on a bargain purchase shall not be recognized in the transaction. The cost of the asset acquired (or group of assets) is allocated to the individual identifiable assets and liabilities based on their relative fair values at the date of purchase.
-In accordance with IAS 12.15, recognition of deferred tax is not permitted upon initial recognition of an asset or a liability in a transaction that is not a business combination. In this context, no deferred tax is recognized on the acquisition of assets.
-Costs associated with the acquisition of assets (e.g. fees of consultants, lawyers, accountants, appraisers and other professional and consulting fees) are recognized as an expense and are accounted for to profit or loss for in the period they are incurred.
Any contingent consideration given by the Group is initially recognized at its fair value at the acquisition date. Changes in the fair value of any consideration that meet the conditions for classification as an asset or liability are recognized by a corresponding change in the value of the recognized asset (e.g. IAS 38)
4.4Operating segments
The Company’s BoD is the main corporate body responsible for business decision-making. The BoD reviews all of the internal financial reports in order to assess the Company’s and Group’s performance and resolve upon the allocation of resources. The Management has set the operating segments based on the said internal reports. The BoD uses different criteria in order to assess the Group’s operations, which vary according to the nature of every segment, taking into consideration the risks involved and their cash requirements.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
372
GEK TERNA’s operating segments are defined as the segments in which the Group operates and on which the Group’s management internal information system is based (please refer to Note 6).
4.5Goodwill
Goodwill arises from acquisition of subsidiaries and associates or acquisition of control in a company.
Goodwill is recognized as the balance between acquisition cost and fair value of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired entity as at the acquisition date. In the case of a subsidiary's acquisition, goodwill is recorded as a separate asset, while in the case of an associate's acquisition, goodwill is included in the value of the Group's investments in associates.
As at the acquisition date (or at the date of the completion of the relative consideration allocation), acquired goodwill is allocated to the cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from that business combination. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a potential impairment may have been incurred (see Note 4.8 regarding the procedures used to review goodwill impairment). Additionally, provisional goodwill is not examined for impairment, until it becomes final.
If a segment of a cash-generating unit, to which goodwill has been allocated, is disposed of, then the goodwill attributable to the disposed segment is included in the carrying amount of that segment to facilitate determination of gains or losses. The value of goodwill attributable to the disposed segment is determined based on the relative values of the disposed segment and the remaining segment of the cash-generating unit.
4.6Intangible assets
The intangible assets of the Group concern
i.rights-of-use quarries and mines and operational development costs of land,
ii.providers invoicing rights arising from concessions and PPPs (see note 4.11) and
iii.acquired software programs
iv.the customer base
v.the trademark HERON
Upon initial recognition, the intangible assets acquired separately are recorded at cost. Intangible assets acquired as part of business combinations are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date.
Following initial recognition, the intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment loss. Amortization is recorded based on the straight-line method during the useful life of the said assets. All the Group's intangible assets have a definite useful life, with the exception of the trademark HERON.

373
The period and method of amortization is redefined at least at the end of every reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life of each intangible asset are accounted for as a change in accounting estimates.
Methods of amortization and useful lives of the Group's intangible assets can be summarized as follows:

Note  4.11

Based on concession period

(20-38) or based on the number of vehicle passages

Amortization of concession arrangements rights obtained, is made based on the execution rate of the specific construction contracts.
Gains or losses arising from the write-off due to disposal of an intangible asset are calculated as the difference between the net proceeds of the disposal and the current value of the asset and are recognized in profit or loss for the period.
Intangible assets with indefinite economic life are recognized at their fair value when a business is acquired, and are subsequently monitored at cost less any impairment losses. These items are not amortized, but are reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a possible decrease in value may have occurred. The Group has only the trademark HERON in this category.
(a) Software
Maintenance of software programs is recognized as an expense when the expense is realized. On the contrary, the costs incurred for improving or prolonging the return of software programs beyond their initial technical specifications, or respectively the costs incurred for the modification of the software, are incorporated in the acquisition cost of the intangible asset, only if they can be measured reliably.
(b) Forestry plots use rights
The value of the land use rights of the forestry land where the Wind Farms are installed includes the acquisition cost of these items less the amount of accumulated amortization and any impairment of their value.
(c) Rights to use quarries and mines
The value of the rights to use quarries and mines includes the acquisition cost of these assets less the accumulated depreciation and any potential impairment.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
374
(d) Concessions
In the capacity of concessionary companies, the Group's companies recognize an intangible asset and revenue to the extent they acquire the right to charge the users of utilities. Revenue recognition is based on the percentage of completion method. Furthermore, the intangible asset in question is subject to depreciation based on the time of the concession or the number of vehicle passages and is subject to impairment testing, while revenue from the users of the infrastructure are recognized on an accrual basis to the extent they cover the operating costs of the Company. The additional component is recorded as a reduction of the intangible asset.
(e) Expenses incurred under Operational Development of Quarries – Mines Land Plots Exploitation
Such expenses concern query-mining operation development costs and mainly include procedures in respect of galleries surfacing costs, galleries opening coats and extracting sterile soil costs. During the operational development phase (before production starts), galleries surfacing costs are usually capitalized as part of the amortized cost of queries development and construction. Amortization of operating expenses incurred for development of mineral-ore extraction areas is calculated using the percentage recovery method of commercially recoverable mine. Amortization expenses of capitalized operating costs arising from development of mines- queries include the costs of minerals mining and extraction costs. Operating costs arising from development of mines - queries are capitalized if, and only if, the following conditions are met:
the Group will receive future economic benefits (improvement of access to mines) associated with the galleries surfacing activity.
the Group can utilize the segment of the mine, the access to which has been improved and
the cost of the galleries surfacing activity associated with this segment can be measured reliably.
The asset arising from the galleries surfacing activity is added to the cost of the mine and is therefore valued at cost less accumulated depreciation and potential impairment.
(f) Costumer – customer base
It refers to the value of the Customer base acquired during the acquisition of a subsidiary company and which is enhanced by the cost of maintaining this base (customer retention cost, agent commissions, etc.).
(g) HERON Trademark
HERON Trademark was recognized during the acquisition of control of HERON ENERGY.
At the date of acquisition (or at the date of completion of the relevant purchase price allocation), the trademark is recognized at fair value. After initial recognition, the trademark is valued at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
The trademark is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a possible decrease in value may have occurred (see Note 4.8 for the procedures followed for impairment testing).

375
4.7Property, plant and equipment
Tangible fixed assets are recognized in the financial statements at acquisition values, less accumulated depreciation and any potential impairment losses. The acquisition cost includes all directly reimbursable costs incurred for the acquisition of these assets.
Subsequent expenses are recorded as an increase in the book value of tangible assets or as a separate asset only to the extent that the said expenses increase the future economic benefits, expected to arise from the use of the fixed asset and that their cost can be measured reliably.
Repair and maintenance cost is recognized in the Income Statement when incurred.
Tangible assets are written off when they are sold or withdrawn or when no further economic benefits are expected from their ongoing use. Gains and losses, arising from the write-off of tangible fixed assets, are included in the income statement for the year in which the asset is written off.
Assets under construction include fixed assets under construction and are carried at cost. Assets under construction are not depreciated until the fixed asset is settled and put into operation.
Depreciation of tangible fixed assets (excluding land, which is not depreciated) is calculated based on the straight-line method over their estimated useful life as follows:

Property, plant and equipment

Useful life (in years)

Building and technical works

8 - 30

Machinery and technical installations

3 - 30

Vehicles 

5 - 12

Furniture and fixtures

3 - 12

 

 

The useful lives of property, plant and equipment are subject to review at least at each end of every use.
When the book values of the tangible fixed assets are higher than their recoverable value, then the difference (impairment) is recognized directly as an expense in the Income Statement (see Note 4.8). Upon sale of tangible assets, the differences between the received consideration and their book value are recognized as profits or losses in the Income Statement.
Interest accrued on loans specifically or generally issued in order to finance the construction of tangible fixed assets is capitalized in the year when incurred, during the tangible assets construction period, provided that the recognition criteria are met (please refer to Note 4.18).
4.8Impairment of non-current assets (goodwill, intangible and tangible assets/investments in consolidated companies)
In respect of tangible and intangible fixed assets subject to amortization/depreciation, an impairment test is performed when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may no longer be recoverable. When the net book value of tangible and intangible fixed assets exceeds their recoverable amount, then the excess amount relates to an impairment loss and is recognized directly as an expense in the income statement. Respectively, financial assets that are subject to
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
376
impairment testing (if the relative indications are effective) are the assets measured at acquisition cost or under equity method (investments in subsidiaries and associates). The recoverable amount of investments in subsidiaries and associates is determined in the same way as that in respect of non-financial assets.
For the purpose of impairment test, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which cash flows can be separately identified. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purpose of calculating value in use, Management estimates the future cash flows from the asset or cash-generating unit and selects the appropriate discount rate in order to calculate the present value of future cash flows.
Impairment loss is recognized for the amount, by which the book value of an asset or a Cash Generating Unit exceeds their recoverable amount. Discount factors are determined individually for every Cash Generating Unit and reflect the corresponding risk data, determined by the Management for every one of them.
Further assumptions are made that prevail in the energy market. The period, reviewed by the management exceeds five years - the period that is encouraged by IAS 36, since especially as for renewable energy units, even a longer period will be judged to be quite satisfactory.
Impairment losses of Cash Generating units first reduce the book value of goodwill allocated to them. Residual impairment losses are charged pro rata to the other assets of the particular Cash Generating Unit. With the exception of goodwill, all assets are subsequently reviewed for indications that their previously recognized impairment loss is no longer effective.
Apart from Goodwill and the Trademark, the Group does not possess intangible assets with indefinite useful life that are not amortized.
An impairment loss is reversed if the recoverable amount of a Cash Generating Unit exceeds its book value.
In such a case, the increased book value of the asset will not exceed the book value that would have been determined (net depreciation), if no impairment loss had been recognized, in the asset in previous years.
4.9Financial instruments
4.9.1Recognition and derecognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the Statement of Financial Position when and only when the Group becomes a party to the financial instrument.
The Group ceases to recognize a financial asset when and only when the contractual rights to the cash flows of the financial asset expire or when the financial asset is transferred and all the risks and benefits, associated with the particular financial asset, are substantially transferred. A financial liability is derecognized from the Statement of Financial Position when, and only when, it is repaid - that is, when the commitment set out in the contract is fulfilled, canceled or expires.
4.9.2Classification and initial recognition of financial assets
With the exception of trade receivables that do not include a significant finance item and are measured

Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
377
at the transaction price in accordance with IFRS 15, other financial assets are initially measured at fair value by adding the relevant transaction cost except in the case of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial assets, except those defined as effective hedging instruments, are classified into the following categories:
Financial assets at amortized cost,
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income without recycling cumulative profit and losses on derecognition (equity instruments)
Classification of every asset is defined according to:
the Group's business model regarding management of financial assets and
the characteristics of their conventional cash flows.
All income and expenses related to financial assets recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income are included in the items "Other financial results", "Financial expenses" and "Financial income", except for the impairment of trade receivables included in operating results.
4.9.3Subsequent measurement of financial assets
Financial assets at amortized cost
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost when the following conditions are met:
I.financial asset management business model includes holding the asset for the purposes of collecting contractual cash flows,
II.contractual cash flows of the financial asset consist exclusively of repayment of capital and interest on the outstanding balance (“SPPI” criterion).
Following the initial recognition, these financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. In cases where the discount effect is not significant, the discount is omitted.
The amortized cost measured category includes non-derivative financial assets such as loans and receivables with fixed or pre-determined payments that are not traded on an active market, as well as cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables.
Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for sale, financial assets designated at initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss or financial assets that are required to be measured at fair value.
Financial assets are classified as held for sale if they are acquired for sale or repurchase in the near future. Derivatives, including embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for sale, unless defined as effective hedging instruments.
Financial assets with cash flows that are not only capital and interest payments are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
378
Financial assets classified at fair value through total income (equity interests)
In accordance with the relevant provisions of IFRS 9, at initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably choose to present in other results directly in equity the subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment that is not held for sale.
Gains or losses from these financial assets are never recycled to the income statement. Dividends are recognized as other income in the income statement when the payment entitlement has been proved, unless the Group benefits from such income as a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset - then such profit is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. Equity interests designated at fair value through total income are not subject to an impairment test. This option is effective for every equity interest separately.
The Group has chosen to classify investments in this category (please refer to Note 21).
4.9.4Impairment of financial assets
Adoption of IFRS 9 led to a change in the accounting treatment of impairment losses for financial assets, as it replaced the treatment effective under IAS 39 for recognition of realized losses with recognition of expected credit losses.
Impairment is defined in IFRS 9 as an Expected Credit Loss (ECL), which is the difference between the contractual cash flows attributable to the holder of a particular financial asset and the cash flows expected to be recovered, i.e. cash deficit arising from default events, discounted approximately at the initial effective interest rate of the asset.
The Group and the Company recognize provisions for impairment for expected credit losses for all financial assets except those measured at fair value through profit or loss. The objective of provisions for impairment under IFRS 9 is to recognize the expected credit losses over the life of a financial instrument whose credit risk has increased since initial recognition, regardless of whether the assessment is made at a collective or individual level, using all the information that can be collected on the basis of both historical and present data, as well as data relating to reasonable future estimates of the financial position of customers and the economic environment.
To facilitate implementation of this approach, a distinction is made among:
financial assets whose credit risk has not deteriorated significantly since initial recognition or which have a low credit risk at the reporting date (Stage 1) and for which the expected credit loss is recognized for the following 12 months,
financial assets whose credit risk has deteriorated significantly since initial recognition, and which have no low credit risk (Stage 2). For these financial assets, the expected credit loss is recognized up to their maturity.
financial assets for which there is objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date (Stage 3) and for which the expected credit loss is recognized up to maturity.

379
Trade receivables, other receivables, and receivables from contracts with customers
The Group and the Company apply the simplified approach, stated in IFRS 9 to trade and other receivables as well as to receivables from on construction contracts and receivables from leases, calculating the expected credit losses over the life of the above items. In this case, the expected credit losses represent the expected shortfalls in the contractual cash flows, taking into account the possibility of default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. While calculating the expected credit losses, the Group uses a provisioning matrix, grouping the above financial instruments based on the nature and maturity of the balances and taking into account available historical data in relation to the debtors, adjusted for future factors in relation to the debtors and the economic environment. Further analysis is presented in Notes 16 , 18, 19 and 20.
4.9.5Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
The Group's financial liabilities include mainly borrowings, suppliers and other liabilities, as well as derivative financial instruments..
Financial liabilities are initially recognized at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration received apart from borrowing costs. After initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with the exception of derivatives that are subsequently measured at fair value with changes recognized in the income statement (except derivatives that operate as hedging instruments, see Note 4.9.6).
Financial liabilities are classified as short-term liabilities unless the Group has the unconditional right to transfer the settlement of the financial liability for at least 12 months after the Financial Statements reporting date.
In particular:
(i)Loan liabilities
The Group's loan liabilities are initially recognized at cost, which reflects the fair value of the amounts receivable less the relative costs directly attributable to them, where they are significant.
After initial recognition, interest bearing loans are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account issuing expenses and the difference between the initial amount and the maturity amount. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognized or impaired through the amortization procedure.
(ii)Trade and other liabilities
Balances of suppliers and other liabilities are initially recognized at their fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Trade and other short-term liabilities are not interest-bearing accounts and are usually settled on the basis of the agreed credits.

4.9.6Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
The Group implemented the provisions of IFRS 9 regarding hedge accounting on January 1, 2024.
In the context of risk management, the Group uses:
-derivative financial instruments for the exchange of interest rates to hedge the risks associated with the future fluctuation of variable loan interest rates,
-derivative financial instruments to hedge the risk of change in electricity prices (options, forward contracts for the sale of electricity), Power Purchase Agreements – PPAs.
These derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at their fair value at the date of the contract and are subsequently measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of financial derivative instruments are recognized at every reporting date either in the Income Statement or in other comprehensive income, depending on the extent, to which the derivative financial instrument meets the requirements of hedge accounting and, if so, according to the nature of the hedging object.
On the transaction date, the Group records the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedging item, as well as the risk management objective and risk hedging transaction strategy. The Group also records both - when creating the hedging transaction and afterwards the extent to which the instruments used in these changes are effective in offsetting fluctuations in the cash flows of hedging items.
Derivative financial products are measured at fair value at the reporting date and the changes are recognized in the income statement. The fair value of these derivatives is determined primarily on a market value and is confirmed by the counterparty credit institutions, if they are involved in these transactions.
Exceptions are made regarding the derivatives that act as hedging instruments in cash flow hedges, for which special accounting is required. A hedging relationship is appropriate for hedge accounting when all the following criteria are met:
the hedging relationship includes only eligible hedging instruments and eligible hedged items.
at the inception of the hedging relationship there is a formal determination and documentation of the hedging relationship and the entity's risk management objective and its hedging strategy. The documentation includes determination of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the hedged risk, and the manner in which the entity will assess whether the hedging relationship meets the effectiveness requirements (including an analysis of the sources of inefficiency of the hedge and how determination of the hedging factor).
the hedging relationship covers all the following efficiency requirements: (a) there is an financial relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, (b) the effect of the credit risk does not override the changes in value arising from this financial relationship and (c) the hedging rate of the hedging relationship is the same resulting from the amount of hedged item actually hedged by the entity and the amount of the hedging instrument the entity actually uses to offset this amount of hedging item.

Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
381
The component of changes in fair value that is attributable to effective risk hedging is recognized in equity.
Any gain or loss arising from changes in fair value attributable to non-effective risk hedging is recognized directly in the Statement of the Comprehensive Income in the item "Net financial Revenue/ (Expenses)". Cumulative amounts in equity are recycled through the Statement of Comprehensive Income to the income statement (from other comprehensive income to the income statement) in the periods in which the hedged item affects the income statement (when the projected hedged transaction is taking place).
Hedge accountancy is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or when the hedge no longer meets the hedge accountancy criteria. The cumulative amount of gains or losses recognized directly in equity until that date remains in the reserves until the hedged item affects the Statement of Comprehensive Income. In the event that a hedged transaction is no longer expected to be realized, the net accumulated gains or losses recorded in the reserves are directly transferred to the Statement of Total Comprehensive Income..
4.9.7Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is recorded the Statement of Financial Position only if there is the present legal right to offset the recognized amounts and the entity intends to settle them on a net basis or to require the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
4.10Receivables on Embedded Derivatives
In the context of the operation of the concession company CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY S.A., the Group recognizes a receivable for an embedded derivative. Specifically, according to article 25 of the Concession Agreement, as of 1 January 2016, the State has undertaken the obligation to provide Operating Support to CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY S.A. (hereinafter referred to as "E-65") to cover its eligible costs in each Calculation Period, to the extent that these costs are not covered by own revenues. The Calculation Period is defined as every successive six-month period (starting January 1st and July 1st of each year) and the Operating Support for every Calculation Period is the difference between the aggregate of the eligible project costs and the distributable base performance less the net revenue of that period. At the latest twenty (20) days before the end of each calculation period, E-65 submits to the State the Support Notification for the same calculation period. Upon the submission of the Support Notification, the Company is entitled in each calculation period to undertake, unconditionally and without limitations, from the Recipient an Account, from the next business day, regarding the payments by the State, and hence, any amount corresponding to the amounts described in the Support Notification up to the amount of the Beneficiary's balance. Payments by the State will be deposited five (5) days before the end of each Calculation Period, as defined in the Concession Agreement.
The Support Notification includes the following three distinct parts: (a) a part corresponding to the eligible project costs, (b) a part corresponding to the distributable base performance and (c) a part corresponding to the additional interest margin, if applicable. Eligible project costs include mainly the following categories: debt servicing account reserve and heavy maintenance movements, operating costs, debt servicing, all of which are deducted from direct income in order to calculate the amount of
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
382
support. Both the distributable base performance and the additional interest margin are included as additional support amounts.
Debt servicing includes payments resulting from the six-month clearing of the liabilities of hedging instruments (exchange rate swaps).
In accordance with paragraphs 4.3.1, 4.3.3 and 4.3.4 of IFRS 9, it is determined to be a synthetic component of a hybrid of a financial instrument that also includes a non-derivative master contract resulting in some of the cash flows of the synthetic instrument ranging in the same way as a stand-alone derivative. The embedded derivative affects some or all cash flows that would otherwise have to be adjusted based on a specified interest rate, financial instrument price, commodity price, exchange rate, price or interest rate index or other variables. A derivative that accompanies a financial instrument but which under the contract may be transferred independently of that instrument or that has a different counterparty from that instrument is not an embedded derivative but a separate financial instrument.
An embedded derivative will be separated from the master contract and treated as a derivative (receivable) only if the following conditions are met:
i.the embedded derivative meets the definition of the derivative,
ii.the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely linked to the financial characteristics and risks of the main contract,
iii.the hybrid (synthetic) instrument is not measured at fair value through recognition of changes in profit or loss (i.e. a derivative embedded in a financial asset or financial liability through profit or loss is not segregated). If an embedded derivative is segregated, the principal contract, if it is a financial instrument, shall be accounted for in accordance with this Standard and other appropriate IASs, if it is not a financial instrument.
The Group has assessed the above requirements of IFRS 9 and has considered the Greek State's contingent liability for Operating Support as a hybrid financial instrument that includes an embedded derivative (the Operating Support Part covering the payments of interest rate swaps) and a non- derivative contract (the remaining part of the Operating Support). It then separates the embedded derivative from the master contract and treats it as a derivative (receivable). See analytical information presented in Note 31 to the financial statements.
4.11Service concession agreements
Under the terms of the contracts, the operator acts as a service provider. The operator constructs or upgrades an infrastructure (manufacturing or upgrading services) used to provide a utility service and deals with the operation and maintenance of that infrastructure (operation services) for a specified period of time.
According to IFRS, such infrastructure is recognized as a financial asset or as an intangible asset, depending on the contractually agreed terms. The Group companies recognize both - an intangible asset from the concession and a financial asset (bifurcated model) - or recognize a financial asset only.
Intangible assets
The Group companies operating as concessionaires recognize an intangible asset and an income to the
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
383
extent that they acquire the right to charge the users of utilities. Revenue recognition is based on the completion rate method. Furthermore, the intangible asset is amortized on the basis of the time of the concession and an impairment test, while the revenues from the infrastructure users are recognized on the accrual basis.
For more information on the concession of right, see Note 8.1.
Financial assets
The Group companies that act as Concessionaires recognize a financial asset as they have an unconditional contractual right to receive cash or other financial asset from the grantor for the construction services.
In the case of concessions, the Concessionaire has an unconditional right to receive cash if the grantor contractually guarantees to pay to the Concessionaire:
i.specific or fixed amounts, or
ii.the deficit which may arise between the amounts received by the users of the public service and the specific or fixed amount provided for in the Concession Agreement.
The Group recognizes the Financial Contribution of the State as a financial asset under the provisions of IFRIC 12 "Service Concession Arrangements". In particular, the Group recognizes a financial asset receivable and income based on the proportional completion rate method and the asset is measured at amortized cost less any impairment losses. More information is provided in Note 15.
4.12Revenue
IFRS 15 established the core principle by applying the following steps for identifying revenue from contracts with customers:
1.Identify the contract(s) with a customer.
2.Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
3.Determine the transaction price.
4.Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
5.Recognize revenue when (or as) the Group satisfies a performance obligation
Revenue is recognized at the amount by which an entity expects to have in exchange for the transfer of the goods or services to a counterparty. When assigning a contract, the accounting treatment is also defined regarding the additional costs and the direct costs required to complete the contract.
Revenue is defined as the amount that an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it has transferred to a customer. If the promised consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the entity estimates the consideration amount it would be entitled versus the transfer of the promised goods or services to customer. The consideration amount may vary due to discounts, price subsidies, refunds, credits, price reductions, incentives, additional performance benefits, sanctions or other similar items. The promised consideration may also change if the entity's entitlement to the consideration depends on the occurrence or non-occurrence of a future event. For example, a consideration amount will be variable if the product has been sold with a refund option or if a fixed
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
384
amount promise has been given as an additional performance benefit to achieve a specific milestone.
The volatility associated with the consideration promised by a customer may be expressly stated in the contract. An entity estimates the amount of the variable consideration using one of the following methods, whichever method it considers best suited to the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled:
(a) Estimated value - the estimated value is equal to the sum of the probability-weighted amounts in a range of possible consideration amounts. Estimated value is an appropriate estimate of the variable amount if the entity has a large number of contracts with similar characteristics.
b) Most probable amount - the most probable amount is the only most probable amount in a range of possible consideration amounts (i.e., the only likely outcome of the contract). The most probable amount is an appropriate estimate of the variable amount if the contract has only two possible outcomes (for example, the entity provides additional performance or not).
The Group and the Company recognize revenue, when it satisfies the performance of the contractual obligation by transferring the goods or services on the basis of this obligation. Acquisition of control by the client occurs when it has the ability to direct the use and to derive virtually all the economic benefits from this good or service. Control is transferred over a period or at a specific time. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when the goods are transferred to the customer, usually upon delivery to the customer, and there is no obligation that could affect the acceptance of the good by the customer.
Commitments for implementation performed over time
The Group recognizes revenue for a performance obligation implemented over time only if it can reasonably measure its performance in full compliance with the obligation. The Group is not in a position to reasonably measure progress in meeting a performance obligation when it does not have the reliable information required to apply the appropriate method of measuring progress. In some cases (e.g. during the initial stages of a contract), the entity may not be able to reasonably measure the outcome of a performance obligation, but it at least expects to recover the costs incurred to meet it.
In such cases, an entity shall recognize revenue only to the extent of the cost incurred until it is able to reasonably measure the outcome of the implementation obligation.
Revenue from rendering services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are provided and measured according to the nature of the services to be provided. The receivable from client is recognized when there is an unconditional right for the entity to receive the consideration for the contractual obligations performed to the customer.
A contractual asset is recognized when the Group or the Company has settled its liabilities to the counterparty before the latter has paid or before the payment is due, for example when the goods or services are transferred to the customer prior to the right of the Group or the Company to issue an invoice. The contractual obligation is recognized when the Group or the Company receives a consideration from the counterparty as an advance or when it reserves the right to a consideration which is postponed before the performance of the contractual obligations and transfer of goods or services. The contractual obligation is derecognized when the contract obligations are met and the revenue is recorded in the income statement.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
385
Commitments for implementation performed at a specific time
When a commitment for implementation is not met over time (as outlined above), then the entity enforces the implementation commitment at a particular time. In determining when the client acquires control of a promised asset and the entity settles an implementation commitment, the entity examines the requirements for the acquisition control, as analytically recorded in IFRS 15.
The main categories of revenue are as follows:
i.Revenue from contracts with customers related to construction operations
It relates to revenue from contracts with customers and results from implementation commitments that are fulfilled over time. Subsidiaries and joint ventures that undertake the execution of constructions, recognize the revenue from the construction contracts in their tax records based on the invoices released to the customers, which result from relevant gradual certifications of the execution of projects issued by the pertinent engineers and correspond to the works performed until the respective closing date. For the purpose of complying with IFRS, the proceeds from the construction activity are accounted for progressively during construction, based on the input method of measurement in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers".
The input method recognizes revenue based on the entity's efforts or inflows towards fulfilling an implementation commitment (for example, the resources consumed, the hours worked, the costs incurred the time spent or the hours of operation of the machines consumed) in relation to the total expected inputs to fulfil this implementation commitment.
ii.Sale of goods
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the price received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods sold and services rendered in the normal course of the Group's operations, net of discounts, VAT and other sales-related taxes. The Group recognizes sales of goods in profit or loss at the time the benefits and risks associated with ownership of those goods are transferred to the customer.
iii.Revenue from car stations
It relates to revenue from contracts with clients and results from execution commitments that are fulfilled over time. This revenue comes from the concessions for the operation of car stations.
iv.Revenue from sale of Electric Energy and Natural Gas
The Group provides electricity and natural gas. In addition, it participates in auctions for the allocation and assignment of physical transmission rights in all interconnections in Greece and is thus active in the electricity markets abroad.
The Group has assessed that the supply of electricity and gas are two distinct performance obligations. Since the supply of these products is made over a period of time, the Group concluded that the sale of electricity and natural gas should be treated as two separate performance obligations which are fulfilled on a continuous basis throughout the duration of the contract. Revenue for each of the aforementioned separate performance obligations is recognized over time as the customer receives and simultaneously recognizes the benefits arising from the supply of electricity or natural gas or from the supply of electricity and natural gas, as appropriate.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
386
The metering of the amount of electricity/gas consumed by customers is carried out with a given frequency, which means that it can be done either on a monthly basis or cyclically up to every four months depending on the product and type of customer. The Group applies the output method to measure progress towards full settlement for each discrete performance obligation and recognizes revenue as progress is made. The Group has assessed that the output method for measuring progress towards fulfilment, which is based on measuring the quantity of products delivered to customers, provides a faithful representation of the transfer of performance obligations. In particular, the estimation of the quantity of products delivered is based on the use of a specific algorithm which takes into account historical consumption data, such as the consumption of the corresponding period of the previous year.
The Group recognizes a contract asset for the amount of accrued revenue that has not yet been invoiced to customers, applying the output method described above. A trade receivable is recognized by the Group when the related invoice is issued, as the Group's right to the consideration is unconditional in the sense that only the passage of time is required for the payment of that consideration to become due.
Certain customer contracts provide for discounts on the price list and discounts for late payments which are variable consideration. Variable consideration is estimated at inception of the contract and some or all of it is included in the transaction price to the extent that there is an increased likelihood that there will be no significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently eliminated.
In order to reduce its exposure to changes in energy prices in this markets, the Group uses the derivative instruments described in note 4.9.6 above.
The proceeds from the liquidation of these derivatives are included in the proceeds from the sale of electricity.
v.Revenue from Motorways Concession Arrangements
Revenue is classified into two sub-categories, i.e.: (a) revenue from construction of concession projects and (b) revenue from exploitation of concession projects.
According to the concession arrangements, the Group's companies have undertaken research, construction, financing, operation, maintenance and exploitation of the projects "Ionia Odos Motorway from Antirio to Ioannina, PATHE Athens (Metamorfosis Motorway) - Maliakos (Skarfia) PATHE Schimatari - Chalkida", ”Central Greece Motorway (E65)” and the concession agreement for the financing, operation, maintenance, and exploitation of Attiki Odos.
Under IFRIC 12 "Service Concession Arrangements", revenue from construction arrangements is recognized in accordance with the impute method of measurement as defined in IFRS 15 and analyzed in (i) above.
Revenue from exploitation of concession arrangements is recognized on the basis of intangible asset and financial asset model and applies to:
(a) revenue from toll collection through manual or electronic toll payment systems and
(b) revenue from rental of Car Service Stations (CSS) or other premises.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
387
As defined in Note 15, under the intangible asset model, the Group recognizes revenue to the extent it acquires the right to charge the users of utilities. The Group recognizes the amount received or receivable option on the part of the operator at its fair value, which is considered to be the payments received from the infrastructure users, based on the accrual principle.
The relevant concession arrangements include all rights and obligations in relation to the infrastructure and rendered services.
vi.Revenue from construction and disposal of real estate
It pertains to revenue from contracts with clients and arises from implementation commitments settled over time. The Group's real estate property items under construction are recorded as inventory. From the amount of the performed sales, supported by a statutory document or a notarial sales agreement (as the relevant risks under the Company's guarantee liabilities are covered by insurance), the consideration attributable to the respective cost incurred by the end of the same year regarding the relative constriction of the sold building or part thereof, is recognized in every year revenue, based on the percentage of completion method.
vii.Income from Rentals
It relates to revenue from contracts with customers and arises from implementation commitments that are fulfilled over time. Income from rentals (operating leases) is recognized using the straight-line method according to the terms of the lease.
viii. Dividends
Dividends are accounted for when the right of recovery is finalized, it is possible that the financial benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the amount of revenue can be calculated reliably.
ix. Interest
Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.
x.Revenue from other PPP concession agreements
At the construction stage, revenue is recognized based on the percentage of completion, in accordance with the Group's accounting policy for recognizing revenue from construction contracts.
During the operating phase, the revenue is recognized in the period in which the related services are provided by the Group. If a concession agreement includes revenue for more than one service, the consideration is allocated to the different services based on the relative fair values of the services provided.
Contract acquisition costs: According to IFRS 15, contract acquisition costs are defined as those costs incurred by an entity to obtain a contract with a customer. Depending on the extent to which the entity expects to recover the above costs, then the entity may recognize an asset and amortize it in accordance with the rate at which it expects to recover the benefits of the contract with the customer. Otherwise, these costs are expensed in the subject financial year. In application of the above, the Group recognizes an asset for the commission cost of intermediaries, also known as "Agency costs". More specifically, the Group uses intermediaries to promote sales. The expenses of achieving a first connection fee from the intermediaries are recognized as an asset and amortized according to the
GEK TERNA GROUP

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
388
annual customer turnover rate. This item is depicted in the “Other Long-Term Receivables” of the Statement of Financial Position.
4.13Income tax
Income tax burden for the year consists of current tax, deferred tax and tax differences from previous years.
Current Income Tax
Current tax is calculated on the basis of the tax Statements of Financial Position of every company, included in the consolidated Financial Statements, according to the tax regulation effective in Greece or other tax frameworks under which the foreign subsidiaries operate. Expenditure on current income tax includes income tax that is based on the profits of each company as restated in its tax returns and provisions for additional taxes and is calculated according to the statutory or substantially statutory tax rates.
Deferred Income Tax
Deferred taxes are taxes or tax relief related to financial burdens or benefits accruing in the year but already been accounted for or to be accounted for by the tax authorities in different years.
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method in temporary differences at the date of the Financial Statements between the tax base and the carrying amount of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.
Deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, when the transaction took place, did not affect either the accounting or the tax profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that there will be a future taxable profit for the utilisation of the temporary difference that gives rise to the deferred tax asset.
Deferred tax assets are measured at every reporting date of the financial statements and are reduced to the extent that it is unlikely that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which part or all of the deferred income tax assets may be used.
Deferred tax assets and obligations are calculated at the tax rates expected to be effective for the year in which the asset is incurred or the liability will be settled and are based on the tax rates (and tax laws) that are in effect or effectively in force as at the financial statements reporting date. In the event the time of reversing temporary differences cannot be clearly identified, the tax rate applicable on the next FY date of the Statement of Financial Position will be applied.
Income tax related to items, recognized in other comprehensive income, is also recognized in other comprehensive income.
4.14Share capital, reserves and distribution of dividends
Common registered shares are recorded as equity. Costs, directly attributable to a component of equity net of tax effect, are monitored as a deduction to the Balance of Retained Earnings in equity. Otherwise, this amount is recognized as an expense in the period in question.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
389
In cases when the Company or its subsidiaries acquire part of the Company's share capital (treasury shares), the amount paid, including any expense, net of tax, is deducted from equity until the shares are derecognized or sold. The number of treasury shares held by the Company does not reduce the number of shares in circulation but affects the number of shares included in the calculation of earnings per share. Treasury shares held by the Company do not incorporate a right to receive a dividend.
In particular, the reserves are divided into:
Statutory reserves
In compliance with the Greek Commercial Law, companies shall transfer at least 5% of their annual net profits to a statutory reserve until such reserve equals 1/3 of the paid-up share capital. This reserve cannot be distributed during the Company's operations.
Development legislation reserves and other tax exempted reserves
These reserves refer to profits not taxed at the applicable tax rate in accordance with the applicable tax framework in Greece and include reserves arising from taxable profits and pertaining to the company’s participation in development laws. These reserves will be taxable at the tax rate applicable at the time of their distribution to the shareholders or their conversion into share capital under certain circumstances.
Cash flows risk hedging reserves
The risk hedge reserve is used to record profits or losses on derivative financial products, which can be classified as future cash flow hedges and are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Reserves of foreign currency translation differences from incorporation of foreign operations
Foreign exchange differences arising on foreign currency translation are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other reserves. The cumulative amount is transferred to the income statement of the year when the amounts were transferred.
Treasury shares reserves
The Company has proceeded with successive acquisitions of treasury shares through implementing the approved share buy-back plan in accordance with article 49 of Law 4548/2018. The total value of these acquisitions is presented in reserves as a deduction from Equity.
Other reserves
The category of other reserves comprises:
(1) Actuarial gains/(losses) from defined benefit pension schemes arising from (a) actual adjustments (the effect of differences between previous actuarial assumptions and those eventually occurring) and (b) changes in actuarial assumptions.
(2) Changes in fair value of investments classified as equity investments.
(3) Reserves formed based on the expenses recognized by the Company and the Group from services acquired in exchange for shares (equity settled transactions) or stock options. See more detailed Note 4.22(c).

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
390
Dividends-Distribution
Dividends distributed to the Company's shareholders are recognized in the financial statements as a liability in the period in which the distribution proposal of the Management is approved by the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders.
Also, at the same time, the Financial Statements reflect the effect of the disposal of the results approved by the General Meeting and the possible formation of reserves.
4.15Provisions, Contingent Assets and Liabilities
Provisions are recognized when the Group has present legal or imputed liabilities as a result of past events. Their settlement is possible through resources’ outflow and the exact liability amount can be reliably estimated. The provisions are reviewed on the reporting date of the Financial Statements and are reviewed and adjusted accordingly on evert financial statements reporting date to reflect the present value of the expense expected for the settlement of the liability.
When the effect of the time value of money is significant, the provision is calculated as the present value of the expenses expected to be incurred in order to settle this liability.
If it is no longer probable that an outflow will be required in order to settle a liability for which a provision has been made, then it is reversed.
In cases where the outflow of economic resources due to current commitments is considered improbable or the provision amount cannot be reliably estimated, no liability is recognized in the financial statements. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed unless the probability of an outflow of resources incorporating financial benefits is minimal. Potential inflows from economic benefits for the Group which do not meet the criteria of an asset are regarded as contingent assets and are disclosed when the inflow of the economic benefits is probable.
Provisions for motorways heavy maintenance
Regarding provisions of the concessions, and, in particular, provision for the obligation to restore or maintain the motorway under the concession, the Group has contractual obligations it has to fulfill as a condition for obtaining the licenses to (a) maintain the infrastructure at a defined level or (b) restore the infrastructure to a defined condition before delivering it to the concessionaire upon termination of the service concession agreement.
These contractual obligations that pertain to maintaining or restoring infrastructure are recognized and measured using the best possible estimates of the costs that would be required to settle the present obligation at the financial statements reporting date, if obligation for maintenance and restoration arises within the year at the operational stage. Construction or upgrading services are charged to contractual revenue and expenses.
Provisions for rehabilitation of natural landscape
The provisions for natural landscape restoration include provisions made by the Group’s industrial sector financial entities aiming to cover the costs of restoring the natural landscape. The restoration provisions reflect the present value, at the reporting date, of the estimated cost, reduced by the estimated residual value of the recoverable materials. The provisions are reviewed at every reporting date of the Statement of Financial Position and are adjusted in order to reflect the present value of the
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
391
expense, expected to be disbursed for settling the restoration obligation.
Emissions obligation
Emissions are recognized based on the net obligation method according to which the Group recognizes an obligation from emissions when the actual emissions exceed the emission rights allocated by the European Union. The amount is measured at fair values to the extent that the Group has the obligation to cover the deficit through purchases. Rights purchased in excess of those required to cover deficits are recognized as intangible assets at cost.
4.16Leases
Recognition and initial measurement of the right-of-use asset
The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases (including short-term and low-value leases). The Group recognizes lease liabilities for lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
At the lease period commencement date, the Group recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, measuring the right-of-use asset at cost, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of a low-value underlying asset. For these leases, the Group recognizes rentals as operating expenses using the straight-line method over the lease term.
The cost of the right-of-use asset comprises:
the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability (see below),
any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received,
the initial direct costs incurred by the lessee and
an estimate of costs to be incurred by the Group in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.
The Group undertakes the obligation for those costs either at the lease period commencement date or as a consequence of having used the leased asset during a particular period.
Initial measurement of the lease liability
At the lease period commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. When the interest rate implicit in the lease can be readily determined, the lease payments shall be discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group shall use the Group’s incremental borrowing rate.
At the lease period commencement date, the lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following payments for the right-of-use asset during the lease term that are not paid at the lease commencement date:
1.fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable,
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
392
2.any variable lease payments that depend on the future change in index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the lease period commencement date,
3.amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees,
4.the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option and
5.payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising an option to terminate the lease.
Subsequent measurement
Subsequent measurement of the right-of-use asset
After the lease period commencement date, the Group measures the right-of-use asset applying a cost model.
The Group measures the right-of-use asset at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, and adjusted for any subsequent measurement of the lease liability.
The Group applies the requirements set in IAS 16 regarding the depreciation of the right-of-use asset, which it reviews for potential impairment.
Subsequent measurement of the lease liability
After the lease period commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability by:
1.increasing the carrying amount to reflect financial cost on the lease liability,
2.reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and
3.re-measuring the carrying amount to reflect any lease reassessment or modification of the lease.
Financial cost of a lease liability is allocated over the lease term in such a way that it results in a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
After the lease period commencement date, the Group recognizes in profit or loss, (unless the costs are included in the carrying amount of another asset applying other applicable Standards), both:
1.financial cost of the lease liability and
2.variable lease payments not included in the measurement of the lease liability in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs.
The Group as lessor
Leases in which the Group is the lessor are classified as either finance or operating leases. When the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee, the lease is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
When the Group is an intermediate lessee, it accounts for the master lease and sublease as two separate contracts. A sublease is classified as either a finance lease or an operating lease depending on the right-of-use asset arising from the headlease.
Revenue from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The initial direct costs of negotiating and arranging an operating lease agreement are added to the carrying
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
393
amount of the underlying asset and recognized using the straight-line method over the lease term.
Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recognized as receivables in the amount of the Group's net investment in the finance lease. The finance income from the lease is allocated to the reporting periods to reflect the Group's constant periodic rate of return on its remaining net investment in the finance leases.
When the lease includes both leasehold and non-leasehold elements, the Group applies IFRS 15 in order to allocate the contract price to each element separately.
In addition, the Group as a developer provides its customers with the option to lease an asset, in addition to option of purchasing the asset. The ultimate lessee has the right to purchase the leased asset at a price sufficiently below its fair value on the exercise date so that, at the commencement of the lease, it is reasonably certain that the right will be exercised.
The aforementioned transactions bear the characteristics of an alternative form of sale, where the Company acknowledges the following:
- Income from the sale, which is recognized at the beginning of the lease period at the lower value between the fair value and the present value of the receivables to which the Company is entitled, discounted at an interest rate deemed appropriate based on market standards.
- Financial income recognized throughout the lease period from the subsequent measurement of the receivable at amortized cost.
The receivables recognized, as a result of the above contracts, are included in their long-term part in the "Other long-term financial receivables" fund and in their short-term part in the "Advances and other receivables" item. At the same time, the collections of the related receivables and of the corresponding interest income are presented as inflows from investment activities.
Β. Other accounting principles
The other accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the accompanying Company and Consolidated Financial Statements are as follows:
4.17Foreign currency conversion
Functional and reporting currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euro, which is the functional currency of the Group’s as well as the Parent Company’s reporting currency.
Transactions and balances in Foreign Currency
Foreign currency transactions are converted into the functional currency by using the exchange rates applicable on the date when the said transactions were performed. The monetary assets and liabilities which are denominated in foreign currency are converted into the Group’s functional currency on the Statement of Financial Position reporting date using the prevailing exchange rate on that day. Any gains or losses due exchange differences that result from the settlement of such transactions during the period, as well as from the conversion of monetary assets denominated in foreign currency based on the prevailing exchange rates on the Statement of Financial Position reporting date, are recognized in the Income Statement.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
394
Non-monetary assets and liabilities which are denominated in foreign currency and which are measured at fair value are converted into the Group’s functional currency using the prevailing exchange rate on the date of their fair value measurement. The FX translation differences from non-monetary items measured at fair value are considered as part of the fair value and thus are recorded in the same account as the fair value differences.
Gains or losses arising from transactions in foreign currency as well as from the end of period valuation of monetary assets, denominated in foreign currency, which meet the criteria for cash flow hedges are recognized in other comprehensive income and cumulatively in equity.
Foreign operations
The functional currency of the Group’s foreign subsidiaries is the official currency of the country in which every subsidiary operates. For the preparation of consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities, including fair value adjustments due to business combinations, are translated into Euro at the exchange rates effective at the Statement of Financial Position reporting sate. Revenue and expenses are translated into the presentation currency of the Group based on the average exchange rates for the reported period. Any differences arising from this procedure are charged/ (credited) to foreign operations currency translation reserves differences, equity and are recognized in other comprehensive income in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Upon the disposal, write off or derecognition of a foreign subsidiary, the above reserves are transferred to profit or loss for the period.
4.18Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to acquisition, construction, or production of qualifying assets, which will require considerable time until the assets are ready for the proposed use or disposal, are added to the acquisition cost of those assets until the assets are ready for the proposed use or disposal. In other cases, the borrowing costs burden gains or losses of the period when incurred.
4.19Investment property
Investment property relates to investments in properties which are held (through acquisition or and development) by the Group, either to generate rent from their lease or for the increase in their value (increased capital) or for both purposes and are not held: a) to be used for production or distribution of raw materials / services or for administrative purposes and b) for the sale as part of the company’s regular operations.
Investment property is initially measured at acquisition purchase cost including transaction expenses. Subsequently, it is recognized at fair value. Independent appraisers with adequate experience in the location and in the nature of investment properties define the fair value.
The book value recognized in the Group’s Financial Statements reflects the market conditions on the Statement of Financial Position reporting date. Gains or losses, arising from changes in the fair value of investment properties constitute results and are recognized in the profit or loss for the period in which they occur. Repairs and maintenance are recognized as expenses in the period when incurred. Significant subsequent expenses are capitalized when they increase the useful life of the property and its production capacity or reduce its operating costs.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
395
Property transfers from investment property to fixed assets take place only when there is a change in the use of the said property which is proven by the Group’s own use of the property or by the Group’s commencement to develop this property for sale.
Investment property is derecognized (eliminated from the Statement of Financial Position) when it is sold or when it is permanently withdrawn from use and is not expected to generate future economic benefits from its sale. Gains or losses from withdrawal or sale of investment property pertain to the balance between the net proceeds from the sale and the book value of the asset and are recognized in the Income Statement for the period in which the asset was sold or withdrawn.
Constructed or developed investment property items are monitored, as well as completed items, at fair value.
4.20Inventory
Inventory items include constructed or real estate property items kept for sale, idle mines and quarries materials, building materials, spare parts and raw and auxiliary materials. Inventories are measured at the lower amount between the cost and net realizable value. The cost of raw materials, semi-finished and finished products is determined applying the weighted average cost method.
The cost of finished and semi-finished products includes all the costs incurred in order to bring the products to their current state, condition and processing stage and contains raw materials, labor, general industrial expenses and other costs directly affecting acquisition of materials.
The net realizable value of finished products is their estimated selling price during the Group’s normal course of business less the estimated costs for their completion and the estimated necessary costs for their sale.
The net realizable value of raw materials is their estimated replacement cost during the normal course of business.
Appropriate provisions are formed for obsolete inventories, if deemed necessary. Reductions in the value of inventories to net realizable value and other inventory losses are recognized in profit or loss for the period in which they are incurred.
4.21Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, sight deposits, term deposits, bank overdrafts and other highly liquid investments that are directly convertible into particular amounts of cash equivalents which are not subject to significant value change risk.
The Group considers term deposits and other highly liquid investments less than three months maturity as cash available, as well as time deposits over three months maturity for which it has the right to early liquidation without loss of capital.
For the purposes of preparing the consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand, bank deposits as well as cash equivalents as defined above.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
396
The Group’s restricted deposits, irrespective of the nature of their commitment, are not included in the cash and cash equivalents but are classified in the item "Prepayments and other receivables" (please refer to Note 20).
4.22Employee benefits
Short-term benefits: Short-term employee benefits (except for termination of employment benefits) in cash and in kind are recognized as an expense when deemed accrued. Any unpaid amount is recorded as a liability, whereas in case the amount already paid exceeds the benefits’ amount, the entity identifies the excessive amount as an asset (prepaid expense) only to the extent that the prepayment shall lead to a future payments’ reduction or refund.
Retirement Benefits: Benefits following termination of employment include lump-sum severance grants, pensions and other benefits paid to employees after termination of employment in exchange for their service. The Group’s liabilities for retirement benefits cover both defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. The defined contribution plan’s accrued cost is recognized as an expense in the period to which it relates. Pension plans adopted by the Group are partly financed through payments to insurance companies or state social security funds.
(a) Defined Contribution Plan
Defined contribution plans pertain to contribution payment to Social Security Organizations and therefore, the Group does not have any legal obligation in case the Fund is incapable of paying a pension to the insured person. The employer’s obligation is limited to paying the employer’s contributions to the Funds. The payable contribution by the Group in a defined contribution plan is identified as a liability after the deduction of the paid contribution, while accrued contributions are recognized as expenses in the income statement.
(b) Defined Benefit Plan (non-funded)
Under Laws 2112/20 and 4093/2012, the Company must pay compensation to its employees upon their dismissal or retirement. The amount of compensation paid depends on the years of service, the level of wages and the way of leaving service (dismissal or retirement). The entitlement to participate in these plans is carried out through the distribution of benefits in the last 16 years until the date of retirement of employees following the scale of Law 4093/2012.
The liability recognized in the Statement of Financial Position for defined benefit plans is the present value of the liability for the defined benefit less the plan assets’ fair value (reserves from payments to an insurance company), the changes deriving from any actuarial profit or loss and the previous service cost. The defined benefit commitment is calculated on an annual basis by an independent actuary through the use of the projected unit credit method. Regarding FY 2024 the selected interest rate follows the tendency of European Bonds of 10-year maturity as at December 31, 2024, which is regarded as consistent with the provisions of IAS 19, i.e. is based on bonds corresponding to the currency and the estimated term relative to employee benefits as well as appropriate for long-term provisions.
A defined benefit plan establishes, based on various parameters, such as age, years of service and salary, the specific obligations for payable benefits. Provisions for the period are included in the relative staff costs in the accompanying separate and consolidated Income Statements and comprise
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
397
the current and past service cost, the relative financial cost, the actuarial gains or losses and potentially arising additional charges. Regarding unrecognized actuarial gains or losses, the revised IAS 19 is applied, which includes a number of changes to accounting treatment of defined benefit plans, including as follows:
i.recognition of actuarial gains/losses in other comprehensive income and their permanent exclusion from the Income Statement,
ii.non-recognition of the expected returns on the plan investment in the Income Statement but recognition of the relative interest on net liability/(asset) of the benefits calculated based on the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation,
iii.recognition of past service cost in the Income Statement at the earliest between the plan modification date or when the relative restructuring or terminal provision are recognized,
iv.other changes including new disclosures, such as quantitative sensitivity analysis.
(c) Share-based Payments (IFRS 2)
The Company and the Group have implemented share-based payment agreements for their employees and executives. In particular, based on the existing agreements, the employees and executives of the Company and the Group are granted the right to receive equity securities (shares) of the parent company and its subsidiary, given that specific vesting conditions have been met. None of the existing equity-based payment agreements are cash-settled. Services received in exchange for granting equity-based payments are measured at their fair value. The fair value of the services of executives and employees, on the date the stock options’ granting, is recognized in accordance with IFRS 2 as an expense in the income statement, with a corresponding increase in equity (in the account "Reserves for stock options") during the period when the services that correspond to the stock options are being received. The total expense of the stock options and free share grants during the vesting period is calculated according to the fair value of the options on the date of granting. The expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of stock options expected to be granted. Non-market conditions are included in the assumptions for determining the number of options expected to be exercised. The fair value of options is measured by adopting an appropriate valuation model to reflect the number of options for which the performance conditions of each plan are expected to be met. Estimates of the number of options expected to be exercised are revised if there is any indication that the number of stock options expected to be granted differs from previous estimates. Any adjustment made to the cumulative share-based compensation resulting from a review is recognized in the current period.
The above Stock Option Plans take into account the following variables: Exercise Price, Share Price on the granting date, Granting Date, Maturity Date(s) of Options, Expected Volatility of Stock Price, Dividend Yield, and Risk Free Rate.
For transactions related to benefits based on the Company's equity securities towards executives of the subsidiaries, such transactions are recognized in the separate financial statements of the Company as an increase of the Company's participation in subsidiaries according to the cost of the benefits granted to the executives of subsidiary companies.
As of 31.12.2024, there is an active program for the free distribution of the Company's Treasury Shares (see Note 33).

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
398
4.23Government grants
Government grants are recognized at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be collected, and the Group will comply with all relevant conditions.
Government grants related to the grants for tangible fixed assets are recognized, when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be collected and all relevant conditions will be met. These grants are recognized as deferred income and are transferred to the income statement during the period based on the expected useful life of the asset, for which the grant was received.
Government grants, relating to expenses, are recorded in transit accounts and recognized in the income statement over the period necessary to balance the expenses they are intended to compensate.
In particular, concerning the grant for concession contracts of motorways, the Group recognized the total of financial contribution, approved through the concession agreement, as financial asset reducing the value of intangible asset, that had been created based on the same agreement and amortized at the same period and in a way similar to the transfer of the book value of the intangible asset to the income statement.
4.24Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the weighted average number of the common shares acquired by the Group as treasury shares.
Earnings per share are calculated dividing the net profit attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.
In the periods presented, the Group has no conditional issuable ordinary shares, i.e. ordinary shares issuable for a minimum amount of cash or without cash after the fulfillment of certain conditions of a potential shareholder agreement and therefore does not report diluted earnings per share.
5GROUP AND COMPANY STUCTURE

Assessing the control
The Company TERNA QATAR L.L.C. is fully consolidated as a subsidiary as the Group exercises control over it in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 10. Within the current period, no changes were made to the above estimates, compared to 31.12.2023 (see analytically note 12.2).
The following table presents the joint ventures for the construction of technical projects and other companies, in which the Group participates. These joint ventures have already concluded the projects they were established for, their guarantee period has expired, their relations with third parties have been settled and their final liquidation is pending. Therefore, they are not included in the consolidated financial statements.

financed by the State through European resources and no return is provided for the Concessionaire from the operation of these departments. Based on the above and the provisions of IFRIC 12, the Concessionaire does not recognize a profit during construction and the fair value of the concession from construction is equal to zero because the cost of construction services is fully covered by the financial contribution of the Greek State.

The goodwill that has been recognized in the "Construction" operating segment refers to an acquisition made by the Group in previous year. More specifically, the subsidiary company TERNA SA acquired 66.7% of the construction joint venture EUROIONIA and E-65 with an unamortized balance of 2,381, which would perform additional major construction project according to existing construction contracts. Within the fiscal year 2024, goodwill was recognized by the subsidiary company TERNA S.A.: a) an amount of 27,675 for 100% of the shares of P. & C. Development S.A. and b) an amount of 3,968 for 62.5% of the shares of C & M Engineering SA (see note 7.2 for more details).
The goodwill that has been recognized in the operating segment "Electricity from thermal energy and HP trading" refers to the acquisition of control of OPTIMUS ENERGY S.A. by TERNA ENERGY on 25.10.2021 as a result of the amendment of the shareholders' agreement and the elimination of rights which previously did not allow the exercise of control, in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 10. On 11.11.2022, the subsidiary company TERNA ENERGY I.C.S.A. sold all shares of societe anonyme company OPTIMUS ENERGY S.A. which the former previously owned, i.e. 51%, to the other subsidiary company HERON II THERMOELECTRIC STATION VIOTIA S.A. It is noted that within the year 2023, the above company has been absorbed and now exists as HERON ENERGY S.A.
The goodwill recognized in the “Concessions” segment during the fiscal year 2024 refers to obtaining control of SARISA SUBCONCESSION S.A. Specifically GEK TERNA S.A. acquired 55% of the shares of SARISA SUBCONCESSION S.A. and the final participation amount was 90% (see details in note 7.2).

Goodwill Impairment Test
Management reviews goodwill for impairment annually (on December 31) or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may have depreciated, in accordance with the accounting practice as described in note 4.5.
The Group reviewed the goodwill for impairment on 31.12.2024 and the key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount are disclosed below. The audit did not reveal any impairment loss. The recoverable values of cash-generating units are determined according to value in use calculations using appropriate estimates regarding future cash flows and discount rates.
In particular, the goodwill that arises during the consolidation process of subsidiaries resulting from an acquisition has been divided into the following cash flow generation units (CFUs) per operating segment according to the above Table. The goodwill impairment test is carried out at the subsidiary company level.
The recoverable value of each Cash Flow Generating Unit is determined according to value in use calculations. The determination is made through the present value of the estimated future cash flows, as expected to be generated by each unit (discounted cash flow method DCF). Cash flows are extracted from the most recent budgets approved by the management. Cash flow projections beyond the period covered by the most recent budgets are estimated by discounting the projections based on the budgets, using a constant or declining growth rate for the following years, which does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the broader business sectors in which the Group operates. The cash flow projections are based on reasonable and justified assumptions, which represent the best possible information available and most updated at the reporting date of the Financial Statements.
The management evaluates the rationality of the underlying assumptions with regard to the projected cash flows by examining the causes of differences between past projected cash flows and currently projected cash flows. Also, the management ensures that the assumptions underlying the currently projected cash flows are consistent with past actual results. From the carried out impairment test, there was no need for recognition of goodwill impairment losses.
Assumptions used to determine value in use
The Group, in order to determine the recoverable value of each Cash Flow Generating Unit, calculates the value in use, through the method of the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The main assumptions that the Group uses to determine the estimated future cash flows are as follows:
Construction Segment:
Regarding the goodwill for the construction joint ventures EUROIONIA and E-65, the determination value-in-use is based on the following key assumptions as adopted by the Management to determine future cash flows: (a) the projected revenue under the existing construction contracts of two joint ventures, b) the budgeted operating profit margins of construction projects, which are also calculated on the basis of the results of the last years. Estimated future cash flows are determined up to the completion of the construction projects of the joint ventures and have been discounted at a discount rate of 7.4%. Regarding the goodwill arising from the acquisition of the companies P. & C. Development S.A. and C & M Engineering S.A., it has not been assessed for impairment purposes as it has not yet been finalized.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
440
Segment of Electricity from Thermal Energy and trading of HP
The determination of value-in-use is based on significant assumptions not observable in the market. The main estimates and assumptions are related to the evolution of the future income of the company which is expected to be formed based on the estimated representation that the company is expected to achieve in the total estimated electricity production of the country as planned by the National Energy and Climate Plan. The estimated future cash flows have been discounted at a discount rate of 9.6%.
Concessions Segment
Regarding the goodwill arising from the acquisition of SARISSA SUBCONCESSION S.A., it has not been assessed for impairment purposes as it has not yet been finalized.

The Group, when calculating depreciation, reviews the useful life and residual value of tangible assets at each reporting period, taking into account technological, institutional and economic developments, as well as the experience derived from their exploitation.
On 31.12.2024, the Management estimates that the economic lives of the other depreciable assets represent their expected value in use.
The depreciation of the Group for the year 2024 has been recorded in the Cost of Sales by 24,775 (31.12.2023:26,337), in the Administration and Distribution Expenses by 2,975 (31.12.2023:2,830), in the Research and Development Expenses 64 (31.12.2023:48) and in Other Income / (Expenses) by 1,031 (31.12.2023:1,070) as well as in Inventories by 247 (31.12.2023:265). Due to the application of IFRS 5 (see relevant Note 7.1), a depreciation amount of 26,278 for the year 2024 (2023: 49,272) is presented under "Net Earnings/(losses) after taxes from discontinued operations".
The depreciation charge of the Company is depicted in the Statement of total comprehensive income in the Cost of sales by 1,568 (31.12.2023:1,311) and in the Administration and Distribution Expenses by 70 (31.12.2023:30) .
In the account "Change due to sale of entities", apart from the fixed assets of TERNA ENERGY (see detailed Note 7.1), an amount of 3,036 is also included, primarily related to the sale of ICON BOROVEC EOOD.
In the account "Additions/Changes in advances to suppliers of fixed assets," mainly includes additions to the "Electricity from RES" segment up until the date of loss of control on 28.11.2024.
In the account "Impairments" of the Group for the fiscal year 2024, an amount of 27,053 is included, relating to the subsidiary company TERNA MAG S.A. (See relevant Note 12.3).
In the account "Transfers" of the Group, an unamortized amount of 22,665 is included, which pertains to the reclassification under the Intangible Assets item for the subsidiary companies NEA ODOS S.A. and CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAYS S.A.

These transactions have no impact at the Group level.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
460
amount of 12,277 relates to the acquisition of control over the company SARISSA SUBCONCESSION S.A. Specifically, the Company previously held a 35% stake and following the acquisition of 55% from Black Summit, it now holds a total of 90% ownership.
Within the financial year 2024 there was a sale of 43,211,556 shares of the subsidiary company TERNA ENERGY I.C.S.A. for a total consideration of 864,231, with a participation cost of 11,632 and a profit recorded at 852,598 and a transfer of 35% ownership in FIER THERMOELECTRIC SHA, with a participation cost of 119.
Within the financial year 2024 the parent company collected in the form of a return of capital an amount of 3,429 from the subsidiaries KIFISSIA PLATANOS SQ CAR PARKING STATION worth 573 and GEK TERNA MOTORWAYS S.M.S.A. worth 2,856.
Impairment losses and gains from impairment recovery recognized within the year amounted to 31,590 and 2,089 respectively and are further analyzed in Note 12.3 below.
Within the financial year 2024 there was a transfer to/from joint ventures investments amounting to 736, involving the companies SARISSA SUBCONCESSION S.A. and FIER THERMOELECTRIC SHA. and a transfer to assets held for sale amounting to 4,600 for the company KASSIOPI REAL ESTATE S.M.S.A., which was sold on 22.01.2025 to IC INVEST CAPITAL LTD.
Within the financial year 2024 there was a free distribution of shares worth 7,514 which concerned the companies TERNA S.A. amount of 7,252, NEA ATTIKI ODOS CONCESSION S.A. amount of 46, NEA ODOS S.A. amount of 196 and CENTRAL MOTORWAY GREECE S.A. of 19. This movement is reflected as an increase in the cost of participation of the parent company in the above subsidiaries with a simultaneous increase in the reserve formed for the free distribution of shares and is shown in the line "Other movements" of the above table. Concurrently, there was a reduction in the cost of participation in TERNA S.A. due to the exercise of stock options amounting to 1,331.
12.2Assessment of control under IFRS 10
The company TERNA QATAR LLC, in the share capital of which the Group participates by 35% (through the wholly owned subsidiary TERNA S.A.), is consolidated as a subsidiary, as a control is documented in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements". More specifically, due to contract, the Group has the control over the management and operation of the company.
12.3Impairment test
In accordance with the applied accounting policies and in line with provisions of IAS 36, the Company performs an impairment test on the assets at the end of each annual reporting period if there is any indication of impairment. The test can be performed earlier if any evidence of impairment arises. The arising evaluation focuses on both - extrinsic and intrinsic factors. In addition, the Company, in the case of participations that have already been impaired and when there is evidence of reversal, compares the book value with their recoverable amount and evaluates the possibility of reversing part or all of the impairment recognized in prior periods.
Assumptions used to determine the value in use
a.For subsidiaries that are a separate and distinct Cash Flow Generating Unit (CFGU), the determination of recoverable amount was based on value in use. The value in use was calculated using
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
461
the discounted cash flow method, i.e. cash flow projections based on Management's budgets and forecasts. The determination is made through the present value of the estimated future cash flows, as expected to be produced by each CFGU (discounted cash flow method). The specific method for determining the value in use is affected by (is sensitive to) the following basic assumptions, as these were adopted by the Management to determine the future cash flows: a) Preparation of business plans per CFGU: The calculations to determine the recoverable value of the CFGU were based on business plans approved by the Management, which are based on recently prepared budgets and estimates made by the Management from which budgeted operating profit and EBITDA margins are being extracted and applied, as well as future estimates using reasonable assumptions. b) Weighted average cost of capital (WACC): WACC reflects the discount rate of future cash flows of each CFGU, according to which the cost of equity and the cost of long-term borrowing are weighted, in order to calculate the company's total cost of capital. The discount rate used for the purpose of determining the value in use for the impairment test of the subsidiary TERNA MAG was 9.4%.
b.For the subsidiaries that are principally engaged in holding one or more investment properties, from which no income from leases arises (ex. land-plots), the recoverable amount was based on the fair value of the net assets, as determined by a study of independent valuers. Consequently, their impairment losses and/or reversals resulted in changes in the fair value of the investment property. In particular, the fair value of investment property is based solely on reports of independent valuers and is determined on a case-by-case basis, either individually or in combination, based on the method of Depreciated Replacement Cost, the Replacement Cost method, the Revenue Capitalization method, the Valuation method and the Comparative Data method. The assumptions used for fair value measurement are analytically recorded above, in Note 11.
Impairment test results
Within the year ended 31.12.2024 there was an impairment of the value of the participations in subsidiaries totaling 31,590 (31.12.2023: 11,983).
This amount is included in the account "Profit/(Loss) from valuation of participations and securities" of the separate Income Statement (see Note 40) and is further analyzed in losses as follows: of KASSIOPI REAL ESTATE S.M.S.A. amount of 766 (31.12.2023: 0), of TERNA MAG S.A. amount of 29,286 (31.12.2023: 6,158), of CAR PARK PL. SAROKOU CORFU S.A. amount of 119 (31.12.2023: 0), GEK TERNA FTHIOTIDA S.M.S.A. amount of 58 (31.12.2023: 0), of AVLAKI I B.V. amount of 97 (31.12.2023: 0), of AVLAKI II B.V. amount of 110 (31.12.2023: 0), of AVLAKI III B.V. amount of 33 (31.12.2023: 0), of AVLAKI IV B.V. amount of 36 (31.12.2023: 0), of ICON E.O.O.D. amount of 1,084 (31.12.2023: 5,611), of HERON ENERGY S.A. amount of 0 (31.12.2023: 165) and of IOANNINON ENTERTAINMENT DEVELOPMENT S.A. amount of 0 (31.12.2023: 214). In addition, profits arose from the recovery of impairment amounting to 2,089 of subsidiary company VIPA THESALLONIKI S.A.
Within the current year, the indications that led the Management to perform a test for any impairments of these subsidiaries were the recorded losses from the measurement at fair values of the investment properties of the subsidiaries of the real estate sector. With regard to the subsidiary company TERNA MAG S.A., the Management within the financial year 2024 considered that there were indications of impairment on the assets due to the presence of a combination of events and circumstances that significantly burdened the company's prospects. Specifically:
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
462
1)the existing environmental commitments will create the need for additional investments in the installation of technologies for the collection and management of CO2 emissions at the Caustic and Refractory Magnesia production plant.
2)the non-payment of the prescribed subsidy by the State based on investment law 3908/2011, in which the company had been included, created an additional significant funding gap.
3)the operation of the factory as a whole requires major technological upgrades in a significant part of the facilities and continuous maintenance in order to produce products at competitive prices.
4)the existing uncertainty in international markets, as well as the ongoing deterioration of the geopolitical climate, which is expected to worsen following the contradictory announcements by the U.S. towards the countries of the European Union, has directly affected the company’s customer orders, which are quantitatively smaller and without binding contracts for periods exceeding two months, resulting in an inability to properly plan production.
From the determination of the recoverable net position of the subsidiary, an impairment loss for the company amounting to 50,581 was identified, which was recognized by 27,053 in Tangible assets (see note 10), 14,325 in Intangible assets (see note 8.1), and by 9,208 Inventories (see note 17). The total loss was recognized for the subsidiary and the Group in the Income Statement under the account ”Other income/(expenses)”.
Sensitivity analysis of recoverable amounts
The Management is not currently aware of any other events or conditions that would reasonably and likely cause a change in any of the key assumptions on which the determination of the recoverable amount of CFGU was based. Despite the above, on 31.12.2024, the Company analyzed the sensitivity of the recoverable amounts per CFGU in relation to a change in some of the basic assumptions presented previously. For example, a change of (i) 0.25 percentage point in the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC), (ii) 25 percentage in the EBITDA margin to perpetuity, or (iii) 0.25 percentage point in the growth rate in perpetuity may affect the valuation by an amount of impairment for the Company between 4.5 mn euros to a maximum 5.9 mn euros.
13PARTICIPATIONS IN ASSOCIATES
The Group has participations in affiliated companies that are classified as associates because of their significant influence and are consolidated in the consolidated financial statements on the basis of the equity method (the object of the activity and the Group's shareholdings in these investments are presented in Note 5 of the financial statements).

26PROVISIONS FOR EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION
According to Greek labor law, each employee is entitled to a lump‐sum indemnity in case of dismissal or retirement. The amount of the indemnity depends on the length of service with the company and the employee’s wages the day he/she is dismissed or retires. Employees that resign or are justifiably dismissed are not entitled to such an indemnity.
The indemnity payable in case of retirement in Greece is equal to 40% of the indemnity calculated in case of dismissal. According to the practices in the countries where the subsidiaries of the Group are operating in, staff indemnity programs are usually not funded.
Estimates for staff indemnity liabilities were determined through an actuarial study. The following tables present an analysis of the net expenditure for the relevant provisions recorded in the consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the year ended on 31 December 2024 and the

All the aforementioned financial instruments are measured at their fair value (see Notes 4.9.6 and 4.10).
In particular, during the year 2024, from the above derivatives, a total loss of 9,795 (31.12.2023 profit of 24,821) was recognized in the income statement of the year from changes in fair value, which is included in the item "Net financial income / (expenses)" as analyzed in note 42 in the item "Result of valuations of derivatives from continuing operations". Furthermore, the total changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income from continuing operations amounted to a total loss of 35,482 (31.12.2023: loss of 12,928). Additionally, an amount of 3,399 concerns receipts of the embedded derivative (see note 31.2 for more details).
Finally, for the fiscal year 2024, due to the sale of the RES sector of the TERNA ENERGY Group, a net amount of derivative liabilities of 2,604 was deconsolidated, while a profit amount of 841 concerns total derivative results classified under the results from discontinued operations (see note 7.1 for more details).
More analytically:
31.1Interest Rate Swaps
In order to manage the interest rate risk it is exposed to, the Group has entered into forward interest rate swaps.
The objective of interest rate swaps is to offset the risk of adverse future cash flows arising from interest on loan contracts entered into as a result of activities in the concessions sector. Specifically, interest rate swaps relate to contracts whereby the variable interest rate on the loan is converted to
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
495
fixed rate over the entire term of the loan, so that the Company is protected against any increase in interest rates. The fair value of these contracts was estimated by displaying the effective interest rate (euribor) curve as of 31.12.2024, throughout the time horizon of such contracts.
The fair value of these contracts on 31.12.2024 amounted to a total net asset of 272 (the total nominal value of the contracts amounts to 2,911,750). On 31.12.2024, those derivatives met the requirements for cash flow hedging, in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 9 and from their measurement at fair values, loss amounting to 41,996 and loss from the ineffective part amounting to 2,632 were recognized in the results of the period. These financial liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy at level 2 (see Note 47).
31.2Liabilities and Receivables on derivatives of CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY: Derivative financial instruments and Operational Support
The Group has recognized, through the fully owned by 100% subsidiary company CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY S.A., a derivative obligation of interest rate swaps of 60,248 (nominal value 331,309, with commencement in year 2008 and termination in year 2036 and with interest rate 4.766% and floating euribor rate) and respectively a receivable from an embedded derivative financial asset (i.e. the part of the Operating Support Scheme covering future payments of the interest rate swaps) of 58,644. Detailed information on the Concession Agreement and the basis for recognition of the imbedded derivative receivable, since the Group (through the 100% subsidiary company CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY SA) has contractually transferred the risk arising from the obligation of interest rate swaps to the State, are set out in note 4.10 of the accounting policies of the annual financial statements for the period ended on 31 December 2024.
The fair value of the financial asset/receivable from embedded derivative on 31.12.2024 of 58,644 reflects the present value from future payments on interest rate swaps (31.12.2023: 61,001). The Group has taken into account the following for discounting future flows: a) future outflows as derived from the financial model of CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY SA, approved by all parties (Lenders, State, and Company), b) Government credit risk as embodied in the multi-maturity Greek government bond yield curve, c) Potential time difference between Derivative Payments and Operational Support Collection. The Group, at each reporting date, reviews the financial asset for impairment. The Group assessed that there is no indication of impairment as of 31 December 2024.
In each Calculation Period, from the total Operating Support income, the amount relating to payments for interest rate swaps is recognized as deductible from the financial derivative receivable at 31 December 2024 amounting to 3,399 (31.12.2023: 4,987). Subsequently, any change in the valuation of the derivative is recognized in profit or loss in the period it arises, i.e. as of 31 December 2024 a gain of 1,042 arose, which substantially reflects the change in interest rates, was recognized in the "Net financial income/(expense)" item of the consolidated Income Statement (see Note 42). This financial asset is classified at fair value hierarchy level 3 (see Note 47).
Interest rate swaps are contracts where the variable interest rate on the loan is converted to fixed rate over the entire term of the loan so that the subsidiary is protected against any interest rate rise. These contracts meet the requirements for cash flow hedging in accordance with IFRS 9.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)

The fair value of these contracts was estimated by projecting the applicable, on 31.12.2024, interest rate curve (based on euribor) throughout the time horizon of the subject contracts. The fair value of the contracts amounted to 60,248 in total. On 31.12.2024, the above derivatives met the conditions for cash flow risk hedging, in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 9 and from their measurement at fair values, a gain of 2,038 was recognized in other comprehensive income. This financial liability has been classified in terms of fair value hierarchy at level 2.
The fair value of the financial asset from the embedded derivative, the change of which is presented in the Profit and Loss, reflects the present value of the future payments on the interest rate swap derivatives, the valuation of which is presented mainly in the Other Comprehensive Income. For the current period, as a consequence of the of the gradual deceleration in the six-month Euribor, the future payments of the interest rate swap derivatives decreased, a fact which contributed to the lower valuation of the liability arising from them and, correspondingly, to the lower valuation of the embedded derivative asset that reflects them. Additionally, for the valuation of the embedded derivative, the borrowing rates of the Greek State are taken into account, the decrease of which in this period is not linked to any change in the credit risk of the embedded derivative. On the contrary, it is part of the general downward trend of interest rates at the European and global level, a consequence of geopolitical developments in general.
31.3Derivatives for hedging changes in energy market prices
Fixed for floating swap contract HERON EN.A program
Within 2021, the subsidiary company HERON ENERGY S.A., in cooperation with TERNA ENERGY S.A., introduced "HERON EN.A" to the Greek market. Within the financial year 2022, HERON ENERGY S.A., in collaboration with third-party RES producers, proceeded in order to enter into long-term PPA, i.e. power purchase agreements.
Within the framework of "HERON EN.A" and "HERON EN.A BUSINESS" plans and the other PPA agreements, HERON ENERGY SA collects fixed cash flows from the contracted final energy consumers, while paying to them the fluctuating cash flows (Proxy Market Revenues) collected by the Group through the RES operations of TERNA ENERGY SA that do not have an energy sale contract at a locked price. The duration of "HERON EN.A" contracts between HERON ENERGY SA and the final consumers is 20 years, with the possibility on behalf of the Company for further extension, while in the case of the program "HERON EN.A BUSINESS" the relevant contracts between the Company and large energy consumers that have the typical form of long-term virtual power purchase agreements (VPAA) have an indicative duration of around 7 to 12 years.
After the sale of TERNA ENERGY I.C.S.A. shares these derivatives do not fulfil the prerequisites for hedge accounting, because the Group is not simultaneously producer and trader of electric energy. The changes after 28.11.2024, when the TERNA ENERGY I.C.S.A. share sale transaction occurred have been accounted in Profit and Loss. The respective financial liability amounting to 6,651 has been classified in the hierarchy of fair value at level 3 (see Note 47).
31.4 Future Contracts on purchase and sale of natural gas and electricity for commercial purposes
Future Contracts on purchase and sale of natural gas and electricity
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
497
The Group, through its subsidiary HERON ENERGY SA, in the context of its operation, has entered into forward contracts for the purchase and sale of natural gas and electricity for trading purposes, allowing the stabilization of the cost of buying or part of selling energy when the referred Company wishes to submit competitive offers to sell or buy energy, respectively.
For these derivatives from their measurement at fair value, a loss of 630 was recognized in the item "Net financial income / (expenses)" as analyzed in note 42 in the item "Result of derivative valuations from continuing operations". This net financial asset amounting to 9,869 has been classified in the hierarchy of fair value at level 3 (see Note 47).
Forward Contract on Purchase of Energy VPPA
Within 2023, the subsidiary company HERON ENERGY S.A. signed a Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA) with the related company (J/V) Thermoelectric Komotini. The duration of this contract has been set at 10 years. This contract is considered a financial instrument, similar to a contract for difference (CFD), as it has been agreed to exchange the difference of cash flows on a fixed energy price and correspondingly variable energy prices.
From the measurement of this derivative at fair value, a loss of 1,886 was recognized in the account "Net financial income/(expenses)", as analyzed in note 42 in the line " Derivatives valuation results". The net financial receivable for the current period amounted 8,011. To calculate the present value of the Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA), the discounted cash flow (DCF) method was selected. Given the lack of liquidity in the energy market as far as long-duration futures contracts were concerned, this contract is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 47).
32SHARE CAPITAL – EARNINGS PER SHARE
On 31.12.2024 , the share capital of the Company amounted to 58,951,275.87 euros, was fully paid and divided into 103,423,291 common shares of a nominal value of 0.57 euro each. Each share of the Company entitles one vote. The share premium account on 31.12.2024 stands at 179,151.
In addition, on 31.12.2024 the Group held directly through the parent 794,215 treasury shares and indirectly through subsidiaries 2,312,066, a total of 3,106,281 treasury shares of a total acquisition value of 25,340, i.e 3.0035% of the Share Capital (see Note 33).
Corporate Events of the Year 2024
In the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company’s shareholders on February 13, 2024, the following decisions, among others, were made: a) Increase of the share capital of the Company by 3,420,000 euros through a cash contribution, with the issuance of 6,000,000 common shares with a nominal value of 0.57 euro each and a disposal price of 13.2 euro per share, excluding existing shareholders of the Company, in accordance with article 27, paragraph 1 of Law 4548/2018 and b) Reduction of the share capital of the Company by 3,420,000 euros through the cancellation of 6,000,000 treasury shares held by the Company.
As a result of these decisions, on 11.03.2024, the Company's 6,000,000 new common registered shares were admitted for trading on the Main Market of the Athens Stock Exchange. On the same date, the trading of 6,000,000 treasury shares ceased and they were delisted from the Athens Stock Exchange, implementing the private placement as previously announced by the Company on 18.01.2024. It is
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
498
worth noting that, due to the manner in which the private placement was implemented, existing shareholders prior to the placement did not experience dilution from the share capital increase. The share capital remained unchanged at 58,951,275.87 euros, divided into 103,423,291 common registered voting shares with a nominal value of 0.57 euro each. Funds totaling 79,200 euros were raised from the private placement, recorded in the account "Share Premium Reserve", while the total expenses related to the private placement and the share capital increase amounted to 2,594 euros, which were deducted from the "Retained Earnings" account. Additionally, due to the cancellation of treasury shares, the "Reserves" account, specifically the "Treasury Shares" sub-account, increased by 43,871 euros, while the "Share Premium Reserve" account decreased by the same amount, without this transaction changing Equity of the Company and the Group.
On 26.06.2024, the Ordinary General Meeting approved the Board of Directors’ proposal for the increase of the Company’s share capital by 25,855,822.75 euros through the capitalization of part of the special reserve from the issuance of shares premium, with an increase in the nominal value of each share from 0.57 euro to 0.82 euro. Simultaneously, the share capital was reduced by 25,855,822.75 euros through a corresponding decrease in the nominal value of each share from 0.82 euro to 0.57 euro, with the amount of the reduction (0.25 euro per share) returned to the shareholders. After this, the share capital of the Company amounts to 58,951,275.87 euros, divided into 103,423,291 common registered voting shares, each with a nominal value of 0.57 euro.
The issuing expenses concerning the above share capital increase amounted to 78 and have been transferred as deductions from the balance of “Retained earnings".
On 03.09.2024, the payment was made to beneficiaries of the capital return of 0.25 euro per share, approved by the decision of the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders on 26.06.2024.

Statutory Reserves
In compliance with the Greek Law, companies shall transfer at least 5% of their annual net profits to a statutory reserve until such reserve equals 1/3 of the paid-up share capital. This reserve cannot be distributed but can be used for loss write off.
Development and tax legislation reserves
These reserves relate to profits that have not been taxed at the effective tax rate according to the applicable tax framework. Such reserves will be taxable at the tax rate applicable at the time of their distribution to the shareholders or their transfer to equity under specific circumstances.
The reserves in question also include reserves of 2 motorway concessions. In particular, under the provisions of Article 36.1.7 of the Concession Agreement, the companies NEA ODOS and CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY S.A. amortize the total investment cost for tax purposes, including the cost of interests within the Period T1. The portion of the State Financing Facility, corresponding to the construction cost for the fiscal year and, in particular, to the amortizations accounted for, is deducted from the amortizations in question as a proportion of the capital grant used (as Article 36.1.2 of the Concession Agreement). The amount of the proportion of the capital grant used as above is transferred to the account of tax exempted reserves. In the event the reserves are distributed, the State Financing Facility will be taxed at the tax rate applicable at the time of distribution to the shareholders. Within the current year, the aforementioned reserves increased by 7,980. Finally, due to the sale of shares held by the Company in TERNA ENERGY INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL TECHNICAL COMPANY S.A., the consolidation of the subsidiaries of the TERNA ENERGY sub-group, which operate in the renewable energy sources segment, was terminated during the financial year, resulting in a decrease in the amount of the relevant Reserves by 53,156 euros.
Cash flows hedging reserves
Cash flow hedging reserves are used are used to record profit or losses on derivative financial instruments, which may be designated as cash flow hedges and recognized in other total comprehensive income. When the transaction to which the hedging relates affects the statement of total comprehensive income, then the corresponding amounts are also transferred from the other total comprehensive income to the statement of income. During the financial year 2024, the Group recorded an increase in these reserves due to derivative losses amounting to 35,482 (29,286 in financial year 2023), which after taxes and the deduction of non-controlling interest amounted to a loss of 23,353 (13,639 loss in 2023). Additionally, due to the sale of shares held by the Company in TERNA ENERGY INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL TECHNICAL COMPANY S.A., the consolidation of subsidiaries within the TERNA ENERGY S.A. subgroup active in RES segment was discontinued, resulting in an increase in these reserves by 4,263. The total reserves on 31.12.2024 amounts to a credit balance of 107,743 (see detailed Note 31).

Share-based Payments
1. Stock options of the Company:
The Extraordinary General Meeting of GEK TERNA S.A. held on 09.12.2019 approved the Company's Remuneration Policy, in accordance with articles 110 and 111 of Law 4548/2018. In the context of drawing up the Remuneration Policy, a new stock option plan (abolishing the previous one approved on 27.06.2018 by the General Meeting) was introduced to provide stock options up to the limit of 4,000,000 shares of the Company for the five-year period 2019-2023, which will address up to 20 executives.
As of 20.02.2020, during the meeting of the Company’s Board of Directors the sale price of the shares to the beneficiaries at the amount of 2.00 euros per share was adopted and the Board of Directors initially appointed 16 executives to be included in the Plan, as well as defined the specific terms and conditions of the plan, mainly related to the fulfillment of performance conditions, not related to the market (e.g. EBITDA of operating segments, distributions in the parent company, etc.). On 08.07.2020, at a new meeting, the Board of Directors approved further terms and conditions of the plan, related to meeting the terms and conditions of market performance (share price). Additionally, there is an obligation to hold the shares for two years.
At the meeting held as of 23.12.2020, the Board of Directors determined the final beneficiaries of the plan and the allocation percentage according to the proposal of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee (hereinafter "NRC").

Rights have been vested for all 4,000,000 shares under the plan and within the 2024 financial year, 1,595,966 treasury shares, which were outstanding for the completion of the plan, were allocated to the beneficiaries.
2. Bonus Share Plan of the Company
The Ordinary General Meeting of the Company on June 20, 2023 approved the Remuneration Policy, which included a plan regarding the distribution of up to three million six hundred thousand (3,600,000) treasury shares, subject to the achievement of specific targets or the occurrence of specific events. The plan was established for the four-year period 2023-2027. The Board of Directors was authorized to further determine the beneficiaries, the manner of exercising the right and the terms of the plan, as well as to regulate all relevant procedural matters for the implementation of the resolution.
The Board of Directors, at its meeting of 18.01.2024, in implementation of the aforementioned decision of the General Meeting of Shareholders, accepted the recommendation of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, the terms of implementation of the Programme, as well as the Criteria - Objectives of the Programme (relating to the fulfilment of market-related objectives e.g. Increase in share price but also non-market related objectives such as e.g. targets for the commencement of specific concessions, construction of projects, EBITDA, debt service, etc.), as well as in relation to the allocation of shares per Criteria - Objectives. Following the evaluation of relevant terms and conditions of the plan, the grant date of the plan to the beneficiaries was considered to be October 1, 2024.

34INCOME TAX – DEFERRED TAX
The tax rate for legal entities in Greece both for the year 2024 and for the year 2023 after the enactment of Law 4799/2021 which amended par. 1, no. 58 of Law 4172/2013 is set at 22%.
The effective tax rate differs from the nominal. The calculation of the effective tax rate is affected by several factors, the most important of which are non‐exemption of specific expenses, depreciation rates differences, arising between the fixed asset’s useful life and the rates defined under CL 4172/2013, and the ability of companies to generate tax‐exempted discounts and tax‐exempted reserve.

* The figures of the Group for the comparative period 01.01-31.12.2023, were adjusted in order to distinguish between continuing and discontinued operations (see Note 7.1), in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 5, "Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations”.
Tax return statement is submitted on an annual basis but declared profits or losses remain provisional until the tax authorities inspect the taxpayer’s books and records and issue an audit report. The Group annually estimates any contingent liabilities, expected to arise from the audit of past years, making relevant provisions where appropriate. Information on the unaudited tax years is listed in Notes 5 and 49.1 of the Financial Statements.
Global Minimum Tax – Pillar II
In 2024, Law 5100/2024 was enacted in Greece, incorporating into Greek legislation the EU Council Directive 2022/2523, which ensures a global minimum tax rate of 15% starting in 2024, in accordance with the OECD's Pillar II Global Anti-Base Erosion (GloBE) rules. These rules concern multinational corporate groups and large-scale domestic groups with annual revenues of 750 mn euros or more. Under this legislation, a supplementary tax may arise for any difference between the actual effective tax rate calculated based on GloBE anti-base erosion rules per jurisdiction/country and the minimum rate of 15%. The process involves evaluating the existence of safe harbors in the countries where the Group operates. From the calculations and given the limited scope of the Group's activities in foreign countries, there is no material impact on the Group's tax liability.
(b) Deferred Tax
Deferred income tax is calculated on all the temporary tax differences between the book value and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities.
A deferred tax asset is recognized for the transferred tax losses to the extent that a respective tax benefit can be realized via future taxable profit.
It is noted that a deferred tax asset amounting to 296,891 (31.12.2023: 316,506) has been recognized in the particular part of the tax losses where according to the Management their offsetting against future taxable earnings is relatively certain over the next 5-year period. The above Deferred Tax Asset on the recognized losses for taxation purposes, includes a deferred tax asset for an amount of 295,803

(31.12.2023: 312,687 in relation to the reported tax losses of NEA ODOS SA and CENTRAL GREECE MOTORWAY SA, which mainly derive from performing accelerated amortization charges in the construction cost of the Projects. These tax losses based on the provisions of the Concession Agreements offset future earnings without any time limit (meaning that the limit of the 5-year period is not required).
From the approved Financial Models of the particular companies, it is demonstrated that until the end of the concession period, meaning until 2037, there will be taxable earnings, which can be offset against the accumulated tax losses.
The Group offsets deferred tax assets and obligations, when there is an effective legal right to offset the current tax assets against current liabilities provided that the deferred taxes relate to the same tax authority. The offset amounts in 31.12.2024 and 31.12.2023 for the Group and the Company are analyzed as follows:

* The figures of the Group for the comparative period 01.01-31.12.2023, were adjusted in order to distinguish between continuing and discontinued operations (see Note 7.1), in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 5, "Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations”.
45RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
The Group is exposed to multiple financial risks such as market risk (volatility in exchange rates, interest rates, market prices etc.), credit risk, and liquidity risk. The risk management plan aims to eliminate the negative effect of these risks on financial results of the Group as these effects arise from uncertainty in financial markets and the changes in costs and sales. The risk management policy is applied by the financial services of the Group.
The procedure followed is as follows:
Evaluation of risks related to Group’s activities and operations,
Planning the methodology and selecting the necessary financial products for decreeing the risk and
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
527
Execution/application, in accordance with the approved procedure by the management, of the risk management plan.
The financial instruments of the Group are mainly deposits in banks, short-term financial products of high liquidity traded in the money market, trade debtors, and creditors, loans to and from associates, shares, dividends payable, liabilities arising from leasing and derivatives.
45.1Foreign Exchange Risk
Euro is the functional currency of the parent company and the reporting currency of the Group.
Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will be subject to fluctuations due to changes in exchange rates. This type of risk may arise, for the Group, from foreign exchange differences at the valuation and conversion into the Group’s currency (Euro) of financial assets, mainly financial receivables, and financial liabilities, related to transactions that are carried out in a currency other than the functional currency of the Group’s entities. The transactions mainly concern purchases of fixed assets and inventories, commercial sales, investments in financial assets, loans, as well as net investments in foreign operations.
The Group operates through branches and companies in Greece and the Balkans and thus it may be exposed to foreign exchange risk. The Group’s current foreign operations concern construction projects, real estate development and development of production of electricity.
Regarding the construction projects in the Balkans: the contractual receivables, liabilities to basic suppliers (cement, iron products, asphalt, cobble, skids etc.) and sub-contractors are realized in euro and thus the exposure to foreign exchange risk is limited. Moreover, the Bulgarian lev (BGN) has a fixed exchange rate against euro. Development of real estate in the Balkans is mainly realized by the Group’s construction companies and thus it is exposed to the same foreign exchange risk as the aforementioned construction companies. Sales (and receivables), are performed in euro, and thus the exposure to foreign exchange risk is limited.
Trading electric power in other countries such as Serbia and North Macedonia, where the local currency fluctuates in relation to euro and may lead to foreign exchange translation differences and exposure to foreign exchange risk from the fluctuations of the exchange rate of the Serbian dinar (RSD), the dinar of North Macedonia (MKD) and the Albanian lek (ALL) against Euro.

The following table presents the sensitivity of Net Earnings as well as other comprehensive income to fluctuations of exchange rates through their effect on financial assets and liabilities. For BGN currency we did not examine the sensitivity as it maintains a stable exchange rate against euro. For all other currencies, we examined the sensitivity at a change of +/- 10%.
The table presents the effects of the +10% change. The effects of the -10% change are represented by the opposite amount.

To manage this category of risk, the Group’s Management and financial department make sure that the largest possible part of receivables (income) and liabilities (expenses) are realized in euro or in currencies pegged to euro (i.e. the Bulgarian lev, BGN) or in the same currency in order to be matched against each other.
45.2Interest Rate Risk Sensitivity Analysis
The Group’s policy is to minimize its exposure to cash flows interest regarding long-term financing. On 31.12.2024, 19% of the Group's total debt refer to fixed rate loans, 71.4% refer to floating rate loans that are covering by cash flow hedges against changes in interest rates, while 9.6% refer to floating interest rate loans based on euribor or wibor on case basis.
The following table presents the sensitivity of net profit for the year towards a reasonable change in interest rates (on receivables and liabilities) amounting to +/-20% (2023: +/- 20%), on the variable part

The Group is not exposed to other interest rate risks or price risk of securities whose price is traded on a financial market.
45.3Credit Risk
The credit risk exposure of the Group is limited to financial assets, which are as follows:

Receivables from derivatives

2,977,056

The Group continuously monitors its receivables, either separately or per group and encompasses any differences in its credit risk. In cases when deemed necessary, external reports related to current or potential customers are used.
The Group is not exposed to significant credit risk from trade receivables. This is attributed to - on one hand- to the Group’s policy which is focused on the cooperation with reliable clients and - on the other - to the nature of the Group’s operations.
In particular, the total amount of receivables, whether related to the narrow or the broader public segment, or clients with significant financial position in Greece and abroad, are under special monitoring and the Management constantly assesses the reliability of its customers, the size of each of them, regardless of whether they are a broader public or private entity, for possible implications, in order to take the necessary measures to minimize any implications for the Group.
It is to be noted, however, that there are some delays in payments by the public sector and the companies controlled by it.
Credit risk in respect of cash available and other receivables is considered limited, given that the counterparties are reliable banks with high quality capital structure, the Greek State and the broader public sector and strong business Groups.
The Management assumes that the aforementioned financial assets, for which impairment is calculated where necessary, are of high credit quality.

45.4Liquidity risk
The Group manages its liquidity needs by closely monitoring its long-term financial liabilities and daily payments. The liquidity needs are monitored in different time-zones daily and weekly as well as in a rolling 30 day period. The liquidity needs for the coming 6 months and the coming year are estimated on a monthly basis.
The Group maintains cash and deposits in banks in order to cover its liquidity needs for periods up to 30 days. The capital for long-term liquidity needs is disbursed from time-deposits of the Group. The maturity of financial liabilities on December 31st, 2024 is analyzed as follows:

45.5Other Risks and uncertainties
Given the new circumstances shaped by geopolitical changes, the contradictory decisions of the U.S. on major issues (Ukraine, Middle East, equipment) and inflationary pressures and considering that the Group has no activities in Russia, Ukraine and the Middle East, the Group's outlook and prospects remains positive in the medium and long term. The reasons are: a) The retained investment-grade rating - even without a full upgrade by a specific rating agency regarding the creditworthiness of the Greek economy, which translates into increased inflows of investment capital with more favorable borrowing terms required for investments, b) investments with long-term returns in the form of Concessions and PPPs, c) the significant signed and pending construction contracts to be executed, d) the increase in the participation rates of electricity produced in the Greek economy using natural gas, as well as the market share in electricity trading and e) the increase of energy storage facilities.

48CAPITAL MANAGEMENT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
The objectives of GEK TERNA Group regarding the management of its capital are as follows:
To ensure the Group’s ability to continue as a going-concern, and
To ensure satisfactory capital structure and returns for the shareholders.
The Group defines the level of capital in proportion to the risk of its activities, it monitors the developments of the economic environment and their effect on the risk characteristics, and it manages the capital structure (relation of debt to equity) with the adjustment of the amount and maturity of debt, the issue of new shares or the return of capital to shareholders, with the adjustment of the dividend and the sale of individual or a group of assets.
For this purpose, the Management monitors the financial leverage of the Group on the basis of the ratio, defined as: Total Bank debt/ Total Capital Employed. “Total bank debt” is defined as the aggregate of Short Term Loans, Long Term Loans, Bank lease liabilities and Long term liabilities payable during the next financial year. The “Total Capital Employed” is defined as the aggregate of Total Equity, Total bank debt, the state grants minus the amount of cash and cash equivalents which are not subject to any limitation in use or to any commitment.
The ratio at the end of 2024 and 2023 was as follows:

49CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND ASSETS
49.1Tax unaudited years
The tax obligations of the Group are not definitive as there are unaudited tax years, which are analyzed in Note 5 to the Financial Statements for the year ended on 31.12.2024.
For the unaudited tax years it is possible that additional taxes and surcharges can be imposed at the time when they are examined and finalized. The Group makes an annual estimate of the contingent liabilities that are expected to arise from the tax audit of past years, making relevant provisions were deemed necessary. The Group has made provision for unaudited tax years of 3,050 (31.12.2023: 3,610). The unaudited years per Group company are analytically presented in Note 5. The Management considers that in addition to the provisions made, any tax amounts that may arise will not have a material impact on equity, profit or loss and cash flows of the Group and the Company.
Pursuant to the relevant tax provisions of: a) paragraph 1 of article 84 of Law 2238/1994 (unaudited income tax cases), b) paragraph 1 of article 57 of Law 2859/2000 (unaudited VAT cases) and c) par. 5 of article 9 of Law 2523/1997 (imposition of fines for income tax cases), the State's right to impose the respective taxation for the years up to and including 2018 has time elapsed until 31.12.2024, with the reservation of special or exceptional provisions that may provide for a longer lapse period and under the conditions specified by such provisions.
In addition to the above, in the absence of a statute of limitations and lapse in the Code of Laws on Stamp Duties, the relevant claim of the State for imposition of stamp duties is subject to the twenty-year statute of limitations and lapse in accordance with the article 249 of the Civil Code for cases created up to the fiscal year 2013. From 01.01.2014 and after the entry into force of Law 4174/2013, the statute of limitations and lapse for the imposition of stamp duty is limited to 5 years, given that
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
538
the procedures for imposing and collecting the stamp duty are now part of the provisions of Tax Procedures Code.
Tax Compliance Certificate
For the fiscal years 2011 to 2016, the Group’s companies that were subject to the mandatory special tax audit, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 5 of article 82 of Law 2238/1994 and article 65A, paragraph 1 of Law 4174/2013, received the Tax Compliance Certificate without any material discrepancies arising. From the fiscal year 2017 onwards, the implementation of the special tax audit and the issuance of the Tax Compliance Certificate became optional. The Group’s Management opted to include the parent company and a specific number of subsidiaries in this optional audit process.For the fiscal years 2017 to 2023, the majority of the Group’s companies have obtained the relevant Tax Compliance Certificate. It should be noted that, pursuant to circular POL. 1006/2016, companies subject to the special tax audit are not exempt from the possibility of a regular tax audit by the competent tax authorities.
Regarding the Group companies in Greece that are subject to the aforementioned tax audit, the special tax audit for the year 2024 is in progress and the relevant tax certificates are to be issued after the publication of the annual Financial Statements 31.12.2024. The Tax Certificate will be obtained upon its final submission by the Certified Auditors to the pertinent tax authorities. At the end of the tax audit, the Management does not expect significant tax liabilities to incur other than those recorded and reflected in the Group's and Company's financial statements.
It should be noted that, according to the issues mentioned in the Circular POL. 1192/2017, the right of the State for a tax charge up to and including the year 2018 has lapsed unless the specific provisions on 10-year, 15-year, and 20-year limitation periods apply.
49.2 Commitments from construction contracts
The backlog of the construction contracts of the Group on 31.12.2024 amounts to 4.1 billion euros (31.12.2023: 2.8 billion euros). Under these commitments, the Group has issued letters of guarantee totaling 1,314 million euros (31.12.2023: 1,869 million euros).
49.3Litigations
The Company and its consolidated companies are involved (in their capacity as defendant and plaintiff) in various court cases in the context of their normal operation. In particular, in the case of legal proceedings against the Group for accidents at work that occurred during the execution of construction works, it is noted that the Group is insured against accidents at work and, therefore, no significant burden is expected to arise from the potentially adverse outcome of such court cases.
The Group makes provisions in the financial statements for outstanding legal cases when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and that the amount can be estimated reliably. In this context, the Group has recognized as of 31.12.2024 provisions of 5,087 (31.12.2023: 5,757) for litigations (see Note 27).
The Management, as well as legal consultants, consider that outstanding cases are expected to be settled without significant adverse effects on the consolidated financial position of the Group or the Company, or the results of their operation apart from the provision already made for litigations.

Client claims against Joint Venture “SIEMENS A.G. - AKTOR S.A. - TERNA S.A.” in which the Group participates, and the counterpart claim of the Joint Venture
On 29.12.2015, the Hellenic Railways Organization ("OSE") filed a litigation to the Piraeus Court of Appeal against the joint venture under the title SIEMENS A.G. - AKTOR S.A. - TERNA S.A., whose member is a subsidiary of the Issuer, TERNA S.A.
The legal dispute arose from the project “Renovation of a railway line and manufacture of signaling electrification, - telecommunication in the part of Piraeus - Athens - Three bridges - SKA - Acharnes / Three bridges - Ano Liossia (connection to SKA Korinthos High Speed Railway Line)", whose contractor was the aforementioned joint venture, following the decision made by OSE on the final cessation of operations and termination of no. 994/2005 project implementation agreement.
OSE demands that the joint venture should pay the amount of 22,062 plus interest as from 05.12.2014, otherwise from 31.12.2015, as unduly paid, on the ground that this amount does not correspond to a contractual benefit that OSE received from the joint venture. In particular, based on the aforementioned litigation, this amount constitutes a deviation, on the one hand between the work invoiced by the joint venture SIEMENS A.G. - AKTOR S.A. - TERNA S.A. and paid by OSE to the joint venture, and, on the other hand, the revised (by OSE) final measurement of the conducted work and the project.
In addition, a payment of Euro 624 plus interest is requested as from 01.09.2011, otherwise from 31.12.2015, which corresponds to the unamortized part of the prepayment that had been paid to the joint venture contractor of the project, in the context of its implementation.
The hearing of the case had been initially scheduled for 21.09.2017, however, after cancellations and postponements, was rescheduled for 05.12.2019, when it was also cancelled. It has already been rescheduled for hearing on 18.03.2021 and was postponed for the hearing of 17.03.2022 which was also postponed for the new hearing date which is expected on 19.10.2023, where it was canceled. Subsequently, the Joint Venture filed a motion for the designation of a new hearing date before the Court of Appeals of Piraeus, which has now been set for May 8, 2025.
At a stage prior to the aforementioned OSE litigation, the joint venture contractor of the project and the companies participating in it, as of 30.03.2012 have filed an appeal against OSE and against the final measurement of the project so that it should be revised. This appeal, initially rejected by the Piraeus Court of Appeal for formal reasons, was again referred to the five-member Piraeus Court of Appeal under no. 1038/2017 decision of the Supreme Court published on 16.06.2017. The above appeal was heard, after being postponed, on 17.01.2019 and the decision no. 330/2020 was issued which refers to hearing the said appeal at the Piraeus Court of Appeal in a three-member court panel.
Following the above, the Consortium (Joint Venture) filed a relevant summons for determination of a hearing date before the Piraeus Court of Appeal under a three-member composition and a hearing was set for 17.03.2022, where it was discussed and the decision No. 346/2022 was issued, which according to its mandate accepts partially the above appeal and cancels: a) the presumed implicit rejection by the Minister of Transport and Networks as of the 27.11.2011 application for treatment of the applicants against the decision 4766/25.08.2011 of the Board of Directors of the defendant O.S.E. S.A., by which their applicants' objection from 30.06.2011 and with protocol number OSE - DIPAR 1845763 was rejected, b) the above decision of the Board of Directors of O.S.E. S.A. 4766/25.08.2011,
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Statements of the fiscal year 1 January 2024 - 31 December 2024
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
540
by which the objection of the applicants dated 30.06.2011 and with protocol number OSE - DIPAR 1845763 was rejected, and c) the act with protocol number 1845244/16.06.2011 of the Managing Service of the project entitled “Railway Renovation and Construction of Electrical Motion Signaling Remote Control in the Section Piraeus Athens Treis Gefyres SKA Acharnes / Treis Gefyres Ano Liosia Connection with S.Y.T. SKA Korinthos”, which corrected the Final Measurement of this from 20.04.2011, as regards: a) the reduction of the contractually determined works performed, which also include those of articles 1NT/2, 1NT/9, 1NT /10, 1NT/16, 1NT/20, 1NT/21, 1NT/24, 1NT25/1, 1NT25/5, 1NT25/6, 1NT25/7, 1NT25/12 and 1NT25/15, b) in the materials on site and c) in the new works of articles 2NT/1, 2NT/18, 2NT/32, 2NT/33, 2NT/34, 2NT/35, 2NT/36 and 2NT/37, in order to accept the Final Measurement, as submitted by the contracting consortium towards OSE S.A., with regard to the above (a) contractually determined works that were performed and curtailed, which also include those of articles 1NT/2, 1NT/9, 1NT/10, 1NT/16, 1NT/20, 1NT/21, 1NT/24, 1NT25/1, 1NT25/5, 1NT25/6, 1NT25/7, 1NT25/12 and 1NT25/15, b) materials on site and c) new works of articles 2NT/1, 2NT/ 18, 2NT/32, 2NT/33, 2NT/34, 2NT/35 2NT/36 and 2NT/37.
Following the above decision of the Court, the contractor submitted to OSE S.A. a document with the subject: "Submission of the 67th Certification of Completed Works" for the project. With the letter numbered 9034826/31.08.2022 of the Managing Service Dept., the alleged "67th Certification" was returned with the reasons mentioned therein. Against the above-mentioned act under the number 9034826/31.08.2022 of the Managing Service Dept., the contractor legally filed its objection dated 15.09.2022. Also, the Contractor similarly requested in a relevant letter the return of the letters of guarantee of good performance and advance payment. With its letter numbered 9034926/31.08.2022, the Managing Service Dept. responded negatively to the return of the guarantees, with the reasons mentioned therein. Against the above-mentioned act No. 9034926/31.08.2022 of the Managing Service Dept., the Contractor legally filed its objection dated 15.09.2022. The Managing Service Dept. forwarded its suggestions on the objections, from 16.09.2022, of the contractor against the letters of the Managing Service Dept. where the 67th invoice was returned, and also against the non-return of the guarantee letters of the project respectively, on time, to the competent “Technical Council for Construction Projects and Studies of Supervised Bodies” of the General Secretariat of Infrastructure of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, in order to issue its opinion before the issuance of a Decision by the competent ruling Body on the objections, in accordance with article 174 of Law 4412/16, as amended by article 87 of Law 4782/21.
On 09.12.2022 the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport (as the competent ruling body) with the decision numbered 395361, partially accepts the Contractor's objection as of 16.09.2022 against the letter numbered 9034826/31.08.2022 of the Managing Service Dept., with which the 67th Account of the project was returned. In view of the above, ultimately the Managing Service without delay and in full compliance with the final court decision number 346/2022 of the Piraeus Court of Appeal should:
a) draw up and competently submit for approval, a Protocol for the Regulation of Unit Prices for New Works, which will be approved as soon as possible by the Supervisory Authority.
b) carry out the redrafting and approval of the analytical measurements (to the extent required due to compliance with the final court decision), as well as the final measurement.
c) draw up and submit for approval, a Summary Table of Works for the subsequent liquidation of the contractor consideration, which will be approved as soon as possible by the Supervisory Authority.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
541
Appropriate actions should also be taken for the temporary and final acceptance of the project, according to the above rationale.
Also, on 09.12.2022 the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport with the decision number 395306, accepts the objection from 16.09.2022 of the Contractor Joint Venture against the letter numbered 9034926/31.08.2022 of the Managing Service Dept., by virtue of which the project's letters of guarantee are not returned and articulates the following view: "….As it can be observed from the elements and data of the project’s file, the amount recognized by the Managing Service Dept. as being payable to the contractor, according to the corrected Final Measurement, exceeds the amount of the letters of guarantee and therefore they should be returned, since there is no reason to continue withholding the letters of guarantee and furthermore since this is not deemed necessary in order to safeguard the interests of the project owner. At the same time the return of the letters is also in accordance with the final and immediately enforceable decision under number 346/2022 of the Piraeus Court of Appeal".
It is noted that: a) the contractor joint venture, with regard to its requests which were rejected as indefinite according to the decision under no. 346/2022 of the Piraeus Court of Appeal, filed an appeal from 13.09.2022 before the Piraeus Court of Appeal where a trial date of was set for 15.02.2024, which it was postponed for 20.03.2025 but was ultimately canceled and b) OSE S.A. filed an appeal in the country’s Supreme Court against the decision under no. 346/2022 of the Piraeus Court of Appeal. The contractor joint venture scheduled the aforementioned annulment application for a trial date on 01.12.2025.
There were processes and contacts among the parties following the aforementioned decisions of the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, which due to the tragic train accident in Tempi were suspended.
In addition, we note that on 07.03.2024 two (2) appeals of OSE S.A. were presented to the contracting consortium before the Administrative Court of Appeal of Piraeus against the respective decisions of the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport (as mentioned above). The hearing of the above has been postponed to 09.10.2024. The contractor joint venture filed and served, respectively, the supplementary interventions dated 27.09.2024, in favor of maintaining the validity of the aforementioned decisions of the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, the hearing of which has been scheduled for 11.06.2025.
Legal arbitration against the owner of the Casino Mediterranean City of Dreams construction project
In the second half of 2024, the construction Joint Venture Cyprus Avax S.A.–Terna S.A., which had undertaken the construction of the Casino Mediterranean City of Dreams, initiated arbitration proceedings against the project owner, ICR Cyprus, through the LCIA (London Court of International Arbitration).
The Joint Venture is raising claims against ICR regarding damages incurred due to numerous design changes during the construction phase, which stemmed from inadequate project design on the part of the project owner.
The above resulted in a significant delay in the completion of the project and a consequent increase in costs, due both to the extension of the construction period and to price escalations in materials and project costs, as a result of the energy crisis and the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza.
