As a result, we lower our TP to PLN13.2 (was PLN16.2) and reiterate our Hold rating. The company is endeavouring to control opex, optimise property taxes and tap new business opportunities, but these efforts can only partially offset the negative regulatory regime. Low green certificate prices hit 1Q17 EBITDA Earnings are under pressure from alltime-low green certificate prices as a result of oversupply, limits on new wind farm capacity (coupled with a lack of visibility on future auctions) and rising property taxes on wind farms. As a result, 1Q EBITDA (reported 11/05/17) fell by 51% yoy to PLN43.2m, with opex cuts only partly absorbing the negatives, all of which is beyond the company s direct control. Hence, the relatively high leverage at >4x Net Debt/EBITDA at end-1q17. Change to estimates We cut our EBITDA estimates, as we incorporate lower green certificate prices assumptions (PLN30/MWh) with no visibility on a potential rebound. We believe the elimination of the Ex Officio Seller will expose to the volatility of spot power prices (from FY18). We also cut our estimates for the conventional generation business to adjust to a normalised 1Q17 EBITDA, cut our forecasts for the biomass business due to the low prospects of fuel price increases given the lack of biomass co-firing in Poland. We also mark to market the regulatory distribution WACC, which translates into lower EBITDA given the declining yields in Poland. Risks remain skewed to the upside but with little visibility We do not think green certificate prices can decline much more and we pencil in full property tax duties from FY18 on (in FY17 has managed to work in some optimisation). There could be some downward pressure on power prices (commissioning of new, more efficient conventional capacities, capacity market introduction) but on the other hand, is also positively biased towards higher CO2 costs and potentially rising coal prices in Poland (both via higher electricity prices). The non-core business (like the development of power storage projects) not to mention the offshore wind farm development portfolio could be value-accretive but offer limited visibility for now. Pressure on the development of renewables might pave the way for the State to ease regulations sometime in the future.

Hit by an adverse regulatory regime Nothing new on the regulatory front, with the Polish government s frosty attitude towards renewable energy and wind farms in particular. Most the wind development projects have been scrapped on the back of the minimum-distance-from-household rules for new farms (10x the height of the wind turbine) and little visibility on future auctions. If there is no/very little new onshore wind between now and the end of 2018, most of the still-valid projects would have to be cancelled as the minimum distance rule would apply to them - projects are protected once they have had valid building permits for three years. Additionally, the property tax on wind farms has been increased significantly (now also applies to the wind turbine), which in the case of would increase the tax by some PLN22m p.a. on SGe. However, for 30% of its farms in FY17, has managed to secure the tax at earlier (lower) levels and for some farms, the tax increase has been reduced vs the total potential impact. Consequently, we expect the incremental tax impact to amount to PLN7m this year for. Last but not least, we have seen the development of green certificate oversupply (a legacy of over-compensating hydro generation and biomass co-firing prior to 2016) with a lack of willingness to increase the redemption obligation by electricity suppliers. The result is all-time-low green certificate prices (below PLN30/MWh), which not only hurt wind farms but have also stopped the co-firing of biomass and consequently affect s pellet production lines.

This was alongside green certificate prices declining on average by 70% yoy, lower power prices, higher taxes, subdued biomass production but an extended lifespan for the wind farms (from 20 to 25 years), which to some extent supported EBIT and net income (quarterly depreciation was lower by PLN5.3m in the wind segment). 30 May 2017 2

However, we keep the full tax impact from FY18e onwards (for instance, municipalities that decided not to charge higher tax review such decisions on an annual basis). Lower green certificate price assumptions lead to lower wind farm EBITDA. We also cut our estimates for conventional generation (1Q17 was a normalised quarter and we also note the cheaper heat prices receives from Ciech), for biomass (lower production, lower prices) as well as our EBITDA estimate in the distribution segment (we mark to market our regulatory WACC estimates to the current level of 10Y sovereign yields). We also incorporate a fine-tuning factor into our planning model. From FY18, the regulations relating to the so-called Ex Officio Seller will be abolished. Under these regulations, wind farms have been able to sell electricity to the utilities (their supply arm) at prices pre-determined by the regulator. Consequently, buyers were exposed to uncertain electricity volumes to be purchased at higher than spot prices at a time when wind conditions were very good (usually depressing power prices; Energa is one of the most exposed companies to the existence of such regulations, see our last report here). From FY18, wind farm operators will be exposed to spot prices. In simple terms, they will be exposed to lower-than-average prices when their load factors increase (1Q, 4Q) and higher spot prices when load factors (and hence 30 May 2017 3

production) is lower than the average annual load factor (2Q and 3Q). Our simplistic model shows a loss of c.4% on average in the realised power price for wind farms. On the other hand, however, lower depreciation charges (increased lifespan of the operating wind farms from 20 to 25 years) offset part of the negative EBITDA revision at the net income level. : old and new estimates (PLNm) Revenues 2017e 2018e 2019e New 2,954 2,993 3,041 Old 2,891 2,934 2,980 % 2.2% 2.0% 2.1% EBITDA 2017e 2018e 2019e New 176 164 163 Old 187 189 187 % -5.8% -13.0% -12.6% Wind farm EBITDA 2017e 2018e 2019e New 75.1 58.1 56.6 Old 63.3 62.8 61.9 % 19% -7% -8% Conventional generation EBITDA 2017e 2018e 2019e New 77.3 77.8 78.3 Old 87.4 88.2 88.9 % -12% -12% -12% Distribution EBITDA 2017e 2018e 2019e New 17.2 18.2 18.0 Old 17.3 18.8 19.2 % 0% -3% -6% Biomass EBITDA 2017e 2018e 2019e New 2.2 2.2 2.1 Old 4.5 4.5 4.5 % -51% -52% -53% Net income 2017e 2018e 2019e New 26.0 16.6 17.3 Old 18.5 20.9 23.6 % 40% -21% -27% 30 May 2017 4

Hold reiterated a stock with a lot of upside potential but with low visibility Regulatory change in Poland Our calculations indicate that almost all wind farms located in Poland with project financing and 70% of debt in the funding mix should not be able to meet their debt obligations (interest payments and principal repayments). This is assuming a 30% load factor, full property tax payment, a PLN160MWh electricity price and a PLN30/MWh price for green certificates. In other words there is a systemic problem (note that this does not apply to wind farms owned by state-controlled utilities with lower funding costs incurred at the corporate level rather than the project level). In light of this, we could not rule out adverse regulations (on property taxes as well as green certificate redemption obligations) changing at some stage to support the near-bankrupt businesses. Offshore projects has secured the environmental green light for two of its farm projects totalling 1.2GW, with construction targeted to start in 2020 for the first 600MW and 2023 for a further 600MW. We have no visibility on the support system for offshore yet, but we assume that with the state-owned PGE working on its own offshore project, we would not rule out offshore developing further within the Polish power network. Wind farm life extension has extended the lifespan of its wind farm assets to 25 years from 20 (we have already assumed the operating life of the farms at 25 years and from now on only extend the depreciation life to 15 years). However, as SG equity analyst Jorge Alonso wrote in his Deep dive into supply and renewables lifespan report, many big renewable developers have already adopted longer lifespans of 30 years (vs 25 years previously) for wind assets. Thanks to technological advances, this extension seems feasible, in our view. Gamesa was the first turbine manufacturer to certify a wind turbine life extension to 30 years. Hypothetically, if we assume is able to extend the life of its newest capacities (i.e. the 99MW commissioned in 2015), we would expect the valuation of the company to increase by 3.5% on SGe. New businesses aims to expand its business into PV and energy storage. The company has signed an MOU with Convergent Power (a US Storage developer which develops, owns and operates energy storage assets) to identify storage projects in Poland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy for a start. Furthermore, has also signed an MOU with Solar Century on PV developments and, as a pilot project, has submitted a bid for a 6MW PV hybrid project for a gold mine in Namibia under a long-term off-take. We expect to find out more about these potential development avenues in 3Q/4Q17 when the company plans to announce its strategy. 30 May 2017 5

Poland subject to risks of not meeting 2020 EU renewable energy targets Ecofys recently published a paper on Poland that said the country would probably not meet its 15.5% RES target in 2020 if it continues with the current conditions for RES deployment (i.e. support policies in place and announced for the 2017-2020 period). Under the optimistic scenario, it is estimated that Poland would miss its 2020 RES target by at least 791 ktoe and under the pessimistic assumptions that gap would increase up to 3,556 ktoe. In terms of the share of renewables in total energy consumption, this translates into 10%-13.8% of the overall RES share in 2020. Consequently, the consulting company sees Poland requiring significant additional investment and incentives to meet the targets.

We use a WACC of 5.4% for the windfarms segment and a WACC of 6.2% for other activities. Risks Upside risk: a) higher green certificate prices - a PLN10/MWh increase would have a valuation impact of PLN1/share); b) more visibility on the development of the wind farms segment in Poland (auctions, offshore); c) clarity on the increase in property tax on wind farms - should the increase not apply, our TP would go up by PLN5 all else remaining constant. Downside risks: a) lower green certificate prices - a PLN10/Mwh decrease would have a valuation impact of PLN1/share, b) rising interest rates ( has net debt of PLN740m, most of the debt is WIBOR-linked; c) a decline in power prices predominantly on the elimination of the ORM mechanism (lower clean-dark spreads) and/or rising efficiency of coal plants in Poland. 30 May 2017 8
