Consolidated net revenues of AR$39,718 million2, 74% higher than the AR$22,801 million for the first half of 2017 ('1H17'), explained by increases of 113% in power generation, 91% in electricity distribution, 34% in oil and gas, 30% in petrochemicals and 126% in holding and others segment, partially offset by 9% of higher eliminations as a result of intersegment sales.

  • Electricity sales of 10,894 GWh to 3 million end-users
  • Production of 45.9 thousand barrels per day of hydrocarbons
  • Sales of 182 thousand tons of petrochemical products

Consolidated profit attributable to the owners of the Company of AR$352 million, lower than the AR$1,810 million gain in 1H17, mainly explained by AR$13,772 million losses accrued due to 55%4 of AR$ depreciation against US$, currency in which most of the Company's financial liabilities are denominated, whereas the FS reports in AR$, without inflation adjustment.

Main Results for the Second Quarter of 2018 ('Q2 18')5

Consolidated net revenues of AR$20,317 million, 74% higher than the AR$11,661 million for the second quarter 2017 ('Q2 17'), explained by increases of 116% in power generation, 78% in electricity distribution, 37% in oil and gas, 57% in petrochemicals and 151% in holding and others segment, as well as 5% of lower eliminations as a result of intersegment sales.

  • Power Generation of 3,659 GWh from 12 power plants
  • Electricity sales of 5,344 GWh to 3 million end-users
  • Production of 45.9 thousand barrels per day of hydrocarbons
  • Sales of 95 thousand tons of petrochemical products

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA for continuing operations of AR$7,505 million, compared to AR$3,208 million for Q2 17, mainly due to increases of AR$1,643 million in power generation, AR$1,247 million in electricity distribution, AR$486 million in oil and gas, AR$44 million in petrochemicals and AR$944 million in holding and others segment, partially offset by losses of AR$49 million in refining and distribution, and higher intersegment eliminations of AR$18 million.

Consolidated loss attributable to the owners of the Company of AR$2,661 million, higher than the AR$91 million loss in Q2 17, explained by the accrual of AR$11,367 million losses due to 43%6 of AR$ depreciation against US$.
