CONSOLIDATED MANAGEMENT REPORT FOR THE PERIOD

JANUARY-SEPTEMBER 2019

1. Business Trends and Results in the period January-September 2019.

1.1. Consolidated Results.

ENDESA reported net income of Euros 176 million (-85.2%) for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2019.

ENDESA obtained net income of Euros 176 million in the period January-September 2019, a decrease of 85.2% from the Euros 1,193 million obtained in the period January-September 2018.

The decrease in ENDESA's net income in the period January-September 2019 is due to the recognition of a net impairment of Euros 1,052 million corresponding to the total net book value of the company’s coal-fired thermal generation assets in mainland Spain (see Section 1.3.2. Operating Costs in this Consolidated Management Report).

Without the non-recurring effect described in the foregoing paragraph, net ordinary income attributable to the Parent Company in the period January-September 2019 has increased by 2.9%.

The breakdown of net income and net ordinary income for the period January to September 2019 among ENDESA's businesses and their variation relative to the same period of the previous year is presented hereunder (see Section 1.4. Results by Segment in this Consolidated Management Report):

1.2. Changes in Accounting Principles.

The accounting policies used to prepare this Consolidated Management Report are the same as those applied in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, except for the following new standards, amendments and interpretations adopted by the European Union (EU) applicable to financial years from 1 January 2019 onwards:

Standards, Amendments and Interpretations	Mandatory application: annual periods beginning on
IFRS 16 Leases	1 January 2019
Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation.	1 January 2019
IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments.	1 January 2019
Amendments to IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures: Long Term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures.	1 January 2019
Amendment to IAS 19 Employee Benefits: Amendment, Reduction or Settlement of the Plan.	1 January 2019
Annual Improvements to IFRS 2015-2017 Cycle. The improvements are designed to address areas of inconsistency in IFRSs or where clarification in wording is required, with amendments to the following standards: - IFRS 3 Business Combinations and IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements: Previously Held Interest in a Joint Operation. IAS 12 Income Taxes: Income Tax Consequences of Payments on Financial Instruments Classified as Equity. IAS 23 Borrowing Costs.	1 January 2019

The impact of applying the aforementioned accounting standards, amendments and interpretations was not significant, except for IFRS 16 Leases, as described below:

IFRS 16 Leases.

IFRS 16 Leases establishes that a lessee must recognise an asset according to right of use, which is the right to use an underlying asset, and a lease liability, which reflects the obligation to make lease payments during its term. This standard introduces no significant changes in regard to the lessor, who shall continue to classify contracts as financial leases or operating leases.

ENDESA has opted for retroactive application of this standard, with the accumulated impact of the initial application, whereby comparative information is not restated but the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard is presented at 1 January 2019, recognising the asset at the same value as the liability.

In relation to the practical solutions that the Standard allows at the date of first application, ENDESA has chosen not to apply this Standard to those leases whose term ends within 12 months from the date of first application or where the underlying asset has an individual value that is lower than USD 5,000, and, in these cases, recognises the payments associated with the leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease in Other fixed operating expenses section of the Consolidated Income Statement.

Appendix III of the Consolidated Management Report includes the impact on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at 1 January 2019 of the changes in the accounting principles due to the application of IFRS 16 Leases.

During the period January-September 2019, the impact of application of IFRS 16 Leases on the Consolidated Income Statement was as follows:

Structure, services and adjustments.

At 30 September 2019, due to the application of IFRS 16 Leases, net financial debt was recognised for the payment obligation deriving from rights of use contracts for the amount of Euros 271 million (see Section 4.1. Financial Management of this Consolidated Management Report).

As a result of the entry into force of IFRS 16 Leases, from 1 January 2019, payments derived from operating lease contracts that were previously considered cash flows from operating activities are now recognised as cash flows from financing activities. During the period January-September 2019 the amount recognised for this concept was Euros 26 million (see Section 4.2. Cash Flows of this Consolidated Management Report).

1.3. Analysis of Results.

The table below presents the details of the most significant figures in ENDESA's Consolidated Income Statement for the period January-September 2019 and changes in them compared with the same period of the previous year:

1.3.1. Income.

Income in the period January-September 2019 totalled Euros 14,805 million, Euros 548 million less (-3.6%) than income posted in the same period of the previous year.

The table below presents the detail of income in the period January-September 2019 and its variation compared with the same period of the previous year:

See the Consolidated Income Statements for the nine-month periods ended 30 September 2019 and 2018.

Market Situation.

In the period January-September 2019, electricity demand trends were as follows:

Total accumulated mainland electricity demand fell by 2.0% year-on-year (-3.0% adjusted for the effect of working days and temperature).The accumulated electricity demand in Non-mainland Territories (TNP) closed out the period January-September 2019 with increases of 0.6% in the Balearic Islands and 0.1% in the Canary Islands compared with the same period of the previous year (+1.0% and -0.5% respectively, adjusted for the effect of working days and temperature).

The period January-September 2019 was characterised by lower prices, with the arithmetic average price on the wholesale electricity market at Euros 49.92/MWh (-9.9%) as a consequence, mainly, of the evolution of raw material prices, especially the natural gas, as well as the greater share of renewable energy, in spite of the increase in the price of carbon dioxide (CO2) emission rights.

During the period January-September 2019, the price of the carbon dioxide (CO2) emission rights increased to an average of Euros 24.86 per metric ton and, in the framework of the European Union (EU) objectives for reducing emissions of the Electricity Sector, since 1 January 2019 the establishment of the Market Stability Reserve (MSR) mechanism has ensured that the price of these emission rights are kept at appropriate levels for this purpose.

During the period January-September 2019, there was also a narrowing of the thermal gap due to the weakness in electricity demand, the increase in imports and the increase in renewable production. In this regard the contribution of renewable energies to total mainland production in the period was 41.1% (39.1% in the period January-September 2018).

In this market context, and also taking into account the fall in the price of natural gas and the exemption of combined cycle power plants from the Special Hydrocarbons Tax (known as the “green cent”), together with the different tax treatment of imports, the cost of producing electricity with coal technology increased, amplifying the effect of loss of competitiveness against other technologies.

Looking ahead, in view of the EU objectives for CO2 emissions in 2030 and 2050, the expected support for maintaining current prices of CO2 emission rights and the foreseeable greater narrowing of the thermal gap with the expected growth in renewable energy production plants, coal-fired thermal power plants are likely to continue to become less competitive.

In this context:

ENDESA's mainland electricity production for the period January-September 2019 was 37,541 GWh, 18.2% less than in the same period of the previous year, as per the following details:

GWh
Mainland Electricity Production (1)	January - September 2019	January - September 2018	% Var.
Coal	4,814	13,972	(65.5)
Hydroelectric	3,898	6,864	(43.2)
Renewables and cogeneration	2,865	2,711	5.7
Nuclear	20,245	18,458	9.7
Combined cycle (CCGT)	5,719	3,907	46.4
TOTAL	37,541	45,912	(18.2)
In power plant busbars.

Production in the Non-mainland Territories (TNP) in the period January-September 2019 was 9,047 GWh (-6.1%).Nuclear and renewable technologies, including hydroelectric, accounted for 58.2% of ENDESA's generation mix, compared with 74.0% for the rest of the sector (50.5% and 81.7% respectively in the period January-September 2018).

At 30 September 2019, ENDESA held the following electricity market shares:

18.8% in mainland electricity generation.44.4% in electricity distribution.32.8% in electricity supply (sale).

In the period January-September 2019, conventional gas demand was up by 0.2% year-on-year, and at 30 September 2019, ENDESA had a market share of 15.6% in gas sales to customers in the deregulated market.

Electricity sales to customers on the deregulated market.

At 30 September 2019, ENDESA had 5,825,091 electricity customers in the deregulated market, a 1.7% increase on numbers at 31 December 2018, as per the following breakdown:

4,641,002 (+0.3%) in the Spanish mainland market.853,969 (+3.5%) in the Non-mainland Territories (TNP) market.330,120 (+20.9%) in deregulated markets outside Spain.

ENDESA sold a net total of 58,497 GWh to these customers in the period January-September 2019, a 0.3% decrease on the same period in 2018, as per the following breakdown:

50,949 GWh (-0.7%) in the Spanish deregulated market.7,548 GWh (+2.6%) in deregulated markets outside Spain.

In economic terms, sales on the deregulated market in the period January-September 2019 totalled Euros 7,028 million (+0.3%), with the following breakdown:

Sales in the Spanish deregulated market were Euros 6,254 million, similar to those of the same period of the previous year, mainly, because the higher selling price offset the decrease in physical units sold.Revenue from sales to customers in deregulated markets outside Spain totalled Euros 774 million, up by Euros 25 million (+3.3%) year on year, mainly due to the higher number of customers and the higher physical units sold in Portugal.

Sales of electricity at regulated prices.

In the period January-September 2019 ENDESA sold 8,521 GWh to customers to which the regulated price is applied, via its Supplier of Reference company, 8.7% less than in the period January-September 2018.

These sales entailed revenue of Euros 1,567 million, which was 11.0% lower than the figure for the period January-September 2018, mainly as a result of the decline in the number of physical units sold.

Gas sales.

At 30 September 2019, ENDESA had 1,636,100 gas customers, 2.0% more than at 31 December 2018, as per the following breakdown:

230,070 (-1.3%) in the regulated market.1,406,030 (+2.6%) in the deregulated market.

In the January-September 2019 period ENDESA sold 55,529 GWh to customers in the natural gas market, which represents a decrease of 9.6% compared with the January-September 2018 period.

Revenue from gas sales totalled Euros 1.714 million in the period January-September 2019, down by Euros 111 million (-6.1%) on the same period of 2018, as per the following details:

Sales of gas in the deregulated market totalled Euros 1,658 million, down by Euros 109 million (-6.2%) on the figure for the period January-September 2018, due, basically, to the lower number of physical units sold.In economic terms, revenue from gas sales to customers at regulated price amounted to Euros 56 million (-3.4%), similar to that of the January-September 2018 period.

Compensations for generation in Non-mainland Territories (TNP)

In the January-September 2019, compensations for the extra-costs in Non-mainland Territories (TNP) was Euros 1,020 million, representing an increase of Euros 31 million (+3.1%) compared to the same period of the previous year, mainly due to higher fuel costs caused by the performance of commodity prices and CO2 emission rights.

Electricity distribution.

ENDESA distributed 88,237 GWh in the Spanish market in the period January-September 2019, a year-on-year decrease of 0.4%.

In the period January-September 2019, regulated revenue from the distribution activity amounted to Euros 1,653 million (+0.2%), similar to that registered in the same period of the previous year.

Other Operating Income.

The table below shows the details of other operating income in the period January-September 2019 and its variation compared with the same period in the previous year:

See the Consolidated Income Statements for the nine-month periods ended 30 September 2019 and 2018.

In January-September 2019, other operating income amounted to Euros 520 million, representing a decrease of Euros 183 million (-26.0%) compared with the same period of the previous year, basically as a result of the decrease of Euros 182 million (-40.0%) in income from the valuation and settlement of energy derivatives due to changes in the valuation and settlement of gas and electricity derivatives and CO2 emission rights, partly offset by the Euros 43 million decrease (-12.5%) in expenses for the same item recognised under Other Variable Procurements and Services in the Consolidated Income Statement.

1.3.2. Operating Costs.

Operating costs in January-September 2019 amounted to Euros 14,470 million, up by 5.6% compared with the same period in the previous year.

Procurements and Services (variable costs).

Procurements and services (variable costs) totalled Euros 10,415 million in the period January-September 2019, 6.0% less than in the same period of last year.

The evolution of these costs in the period January-September 2019 was as follows:

Energy purchases decreased by Euros 25 million (-0.7%) to Euros 3,576 million as a consequence, mainly, of the decrease in the arithmetic average price in the wholesale electricity market (Euros 49.92/MWh, -9.9%). This heading includes an amount equal to Euros 21 million corresponding to the deterioration of inventories related to mainland coal-fired power plants.Fuel consumption amounted to Euros 1,364 million, with a decrease of Euros 263 million (-16.2%) due to the lower thermal production of the period (-29.1%) despite the increase in fuel prices.Other Variable Procurements and Services heading in the Consolidated Income Statement totalled Euros 1,486 million, down by Euros 212 million (-12.5%) on the period January-September 2018. This change can be attributed in large part to:

Millions of Euros
	Other Variable Procurements and Services
	January - September 2019 (1)	January - September 2018 (1)	Difference	% Var.
Changes in energy stocks derivatives	300	343	(43)	(12.5)

Catalan Nuclear Tax	(27)	6	(33)	(550.0)
“Social Bonus” discount	34	65	(31)	(47.7)
Others	718	733	(15)	(2.0)
TOTAL	1,486	1,698	(212)	(12.5)

See the Consolidated Income Statements for the nine-month periods ended 30 September 2019 and 2018.

This amount includes a decrease of Euros 33 million in the Catalan nuclear tax as a result of the declaration of unconstitutionality according to the Judgment of the Constitutional Court of 12 April 2019, for which there has been a reversal of the amount accrued in 2017 and 2018 for Euros 27 million.

Fixed operating costs.

The table below presents the details of fixed costs in the period January-September 2019 and their variation compared with the same period of the previous year:

Millions of Euros
	Fixed Operating Costs

TOTAL	1,492	1,480	12	0.8
See the Consolidated Income Statements for the nine-month periods ended 30 September 2019 and 2018.

Fixed operating costs amounted to Euros 1,492 million in the period January-September 2019, a year-on-year increase of Euros 12 million (+0.8%). This amount includes:

The decrease of Euros 27 million under the heading Other Fixed Operating Expenses of the Consolidated Income Statement as a result of the capitalisation, from 1 January 2019, of the right of use leased assets in application of IFRS 16 Leases (see Section 1.2. Changes in Accounting Principles of this Consolidated Management Report).The expense related to disciplinary proceedings of Euros 21 million (income of Euros 2 million in the period January-September 2018).The deterioration of other materials related to mainland coal-fired power plants amounting to Euros 21 million and the charge of provisions to deal with plans related to the discontinuity of these facilities for Euros 18 million (Euros 16 million in the period January-September 2018).The update of the provisions for workforce restructuring plans in place (Euros 3 million, negative, in the period January-September 2019 and Euros 3 million, positive, in the period January-September 2018).

Excluding the effects described in the foregoing paragraphs, fixed costs in the period January-September 2019 would have decreased by Euros 13 million (-0.9%) compared with the same period of the previous year.

During 2019, there has been a profound change in the market conditions affecting coal-fired thermal power plants, deriving basically from international commodity prices and the effectiveness of the new mechanisms for regulating the market for carbon dioxide emission rights (CO2), which displaces the plants with the highest volume of emissions in favour of other technologies. As a result of this structural situation mainland coal-fired thermal power plants are no longer competitive, and therefore their operation in the electricity generation market is not possible, as the evolution itself has proven (See Section 1.3.1 Income in this Consolidated Management Report).

In this context, on 27 September 2019, ENDESA resolved to promote the discontinuation of these facilities, in accordance with the established administrative and legal procedures. This decision has entailed:

Bringing forward the planned closing date of the thermal power plants involved, the economic useful life of which had previously been projected until 2035.Recognising a provision for the dismantling, removal or rehabilitation of the fixed assets concerned, including the expected costs of carrying out these operations until closing date, which, at 30 September 2019, are estimated at Euros 460 million.Re-evaluating whether to go ahead with certain investments committed to in these plants to meet the emission limits established by the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) (Directive 2010/75/EU of 24 November).Developing a specific management model for these assets, geared to different objectives from those of other mainland generation assets.Evaluating the recoverability of these assets, the carrying amount of which at 30 September 2019 amounted to Euros 1,356 million.Recognising, as a result of this decision and of the analysis of the recoverable value of these assets, an impairment loss of Euros 1,356 million, equivalent to the total carrying amount of these assets at 30 September 2019, including the amount of the provision for dismantling and taking account of the fact that the cash flows of these plants is expected to be negative for the remainder of their lives, both as a whole and on an annual basis.

Also, as a result of the application of IFRS 16 Leases, in the period January-September 2019 the heading Depreciation and Amortisation, and Impairment Losses in the Consolidated Income Statement includes an increase of Euros 23 million in the depreciation charge relating to these assets (see Section 1.2. Changes in Accounting Principles of this Consolidated Management Report).

1.3.3. Net financial result.

The net financial result for the period January-September 2019 and 2018 was negative in the amount of Euros 139 million and Euros 106 million respectively.

The table below presents the details of net financial result in the period January-September 2019 and its variation compared with the same period of the previous year:

Millions of Euros
	Net Financial Result (1)
	January - September 2019 (2)	January - September 2018 (2)	Difference	% Var.
Net Financial Expense (3)	(138)	(104)	(34)	32.7
Financial income	25	29	(4)	(13.8)
Financial expense	(163)	(133)	(30)	22.6
Net Exchange Differences	(1)	(2)	1	(50.0)
TOTAL	(139)	(106)	(33)	31.1
Net Financial Result = Financial income - Financial Expense + Net Exchange Differences.See the Consolidated Income Statements for the nine-month periods ended 30 September 2019 and 2018.Net Financial Expense = Financial income - Financial expense.

In the period January-September 2019, net financial expense totalled Euros 138 million, Euros 34 million (+32.7%) more than in the same period of the previous year.

In considering the evolution of net financial expense in the period January-September 2019, the following factors need to be taken into account:

Millions of Euros
	Net Financial Expense (1)
	January – September 2019 (2)	January - September 2018 (2)	Difference	% Var.
Expenses in respect of Financial Liabilities at Amortised Cost	(96)	(97)	1	(1.0)
Income from Financial Assets at Amortised Cost	1	10	(9)	(90.0)
Update of Provisions for Workforce Restructuring Plans, Dismantling of Facilities and Impairment of Financial Assets in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments	(43)	(10)	(33)	330.0
Expense relating to Right-of-Use Contracts in Application of IFRS 16 Leases (3)	(4)	-	(4)	N/A
Others	4	(7)	11	(157.1)
TOTAL	(138)	(104)	(34)	32.7

Net Financial Expense = Financial Income - Financial Expense.See the Consolidated Income Statements for the nine-month periods ended 30 September 2019 and 2018.See Section 1.2. Changes in Accounting Principles of this Consolidated Management Report.

Without taking account of the impacts indicated in the foregoing table of the update of provisions, the impairment loss on financial assets in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and the application of IFRS 16 Leases, net finance expense for the period January -September 2019 would have decreased by Euros 3 million (-3.2%) due to the combination of the following effects (see Section 4.1. Financial Management of this Consolidated Management Report):

The lower average cost of gross financial debt, which fell from 1.9% in January-September 2018 to 1.8% in January-September 2019;The increase in average gross debt, which rose from Euros 6,666 million in January-September 2018 to Euros 7,610 million in January-September 2019.

1.3.4. Net income of companies accounted for using the equity method.

In the period January-September 2019 and 2018 net income of companies accounted for using the equity method was Euros 16 million and Euros 28 million respectively, the breakdown being as follows:

Millions of Euros
	Net Income of Companies accounted for using the Equity Method

(in Liquidation) (see Section 2.2. Consolidation Scope of this Consolidated Management Report).

1.3.6. Income Tax.

In the period January-September 2019, Income Tax expense amounted to Euros 14 million, representing a decrease of Euros 326 million (-95.9%) compared with the amount recognised in the same period of the previous year as a consequence, mainly, of the impairment loss recognised related to the mainland coal-fired thermal power plants for a total amount of Euros 1,398 million which had a tax effect of Euros 346 million.

Without taking into account the effect described in the foregoing paragraph, Income Tax expense in the period January-September 2019 would have increased by Euros 20 million (+5.9%) compared with the same period of the previous year and the effective tax rate in the period January-September 2019 would have been 22.6% (22.1% in January-September 2018).

1.3.7. Net Income.

Net income attributable to the parent company in the period January-September 2019 came to Euros 176 million, representing a decline of Euros 1,017 million (-85.2%) relative to the same period of the previous year.

Net ordinary income attributable to the Parent Company in the period January-September 2019 amounted to Euros 1,228 million (+2.9%). This amount does not take into account the net impairment loss recognised in respect of the mainland coal-fired thermal power plants, amounting to Euros 1,052 million in accordance with the following details:

1.4.1. Contribution Margin.

Generation and Supply.

The contribution margin in the Generation and Supply segment in the period January-September 2019 totalled Euros 2,513 million, up by Euros 81 million year on year (+3.3%), due mainly to the following factors:

The decrease of energy purchases (-0.8%) as a consequence, mainly, of the decrease in the arithmetic average price in the wholesale electricity market (Euros 49.92/MWh, -9.9%). This heading also includes the deterioration of inventories related to mainland coal-fired power plants (Euros 21 million).The decrease in fuel consumption (-16.2%), mainly due to the lower thermal production of the period (-29.1%).The reduction in the other variable procurements and services (-9.2%), which includes, among other aspects, the reversal of Euros 27 million of the amount accrued in 2017 and 2018 for the Catalan nuclear tax after this tax was declared unconstitutional according to the Judgment of the Constitutional Court of 12 April 2019.

Distribution.

In the January-September 2019 period, the contribution margin amounted to Euros 1,931 million, representing an increase of Euros 7 million (+0.4%) compared with the same period of the previous year , mainly due to the incorporation into the consolidation perimeter of Empresa de Alumbrado Eléctrico de Ceuta, S.A. (Euros 12 million in the period January-September 2019 and Euros 2 million from its takeover date until 30 September 2018).

Structure and Others.

In the period January-September 2019, the contribution margin improved by Euros 31 million, mainly due to the evolution of the Social Bonus in the periods January-September 2019 and 2018, in accordance with Royal Decree 897/2017 of 6 October (see Section 3. Regulatory Framework of this Consolidated Management Report).

1.4.2. Gross Profit from Operations (EBITDA).

Generation and Supply.

In the period January-September 2019, the gross profit from operations (EBITDA) came to Euros 1,368 million (+6.9%). To analyse the performance during the period, the following factors must be taken into account:

The 3.3% increase in the contribution margin.The decrease of Euros 7 million (-0.6%) in fixed operating costs, mainly due mainly to the increase in self-constructed assets of Euros 17 million (+51.5%).These fixed operating costs include a deterioration of other materials related to mainland coal-fired power plants (Euros 21 million) and the charge of provisions to deal with plans related to the discontinuity of these facilities (Euros 18 million and Euros 16 million in the periods January-September 2019 and 2018, respectively).

Distribution.

In the period January-September 2019, EBITDA came to Euros 1,526 million (+0.4%) and included, among other things:

The evolution of the contribution margin (+0.4%).The trend in fixed operating costs, which remained similar to those of the same period of the previous year. This evolution includes, on the one hand, an increase of Euros 20 million (+10.5%) in personnel expenses as a result, among other aspects, of the higher average workforce during the period (19 employees) and of the evolution of the update of the provisions for workforce restructuring plans (Euros 1 million, negative, in the period January-September 2019 and Euros 4 million, positive, in the period January-September 2018), and, on the other, a decrease in other fixed operating expenses amounting to Euros 19 million (-6.0%) as a consequence, mainly, of lower expenses in respect of breakdowns.

Structure and Others.

In the period January-September 2019, EBITDA improved by Euros 13 million compared with the same period of the previous year.

In this regard, the improvement in the contribution margin amounting to Euros 31 million was offset by the increase in personnel expenses (+23.1%) as a consequence, mainly, of the evolution of the update of provisions for workforce restructuring plans (Euros 4 million in the January-September 2019 period and Euros 4 million in the January-September 2018 period, both positive), and the additions to provisions for indemnities and other risks of a tax and labour nature (Euros 13 million, negative, in the period January-September 2019 and Euros 5 million, positive, in the period January-September 2018).

1.4.3. Profit from Operations EBIT.

Generation and Supply.

For the period January-September 2019, EBIT of this segment came to a negative Euros 696 million (-211.0%), including:

The 6.9% increase in EBITDA.The 216.1% increase in the heading Depreciation and Amortisation, and Impairment Losses of the Consolidated Income Statement as a consequence, mainly, of the recognition of the impairment loss related to the mainland coal-fired thermal power plants in an amount of Euros 1,356 million and the application of IFRS 16 Leases amounting to Euros 9 million (see Sections 1.3.2. Operating Costs and 1.2. Changes in Accounting Principles of this Consolidated Management Report, respectively).

Distribution.

EBIT of the Distribution segment in the period January-September 2019 grew by Euros 13 million year on year (+1.2%), mainly as a result of the 0.4% rise in EBITDA.

Structure and Others.

The profit from operations (EBIT) for the period January-September 2019 improved by Euros 1 million as a result of the combination of the following aspects:

The improvement in the gross profit from operations (EBITDA) by Euros 13 million.The increase in depreciation of Euros 12 million (+36.4%), basically due to the application of IFRS 16 Leases for Euros 11 million (see Section 1.2. Changes in Accounting Principles of this Consolidated Management Report).

2. Other Information.

2.1. Risk Management Policy.

In the period January-September 2019, ENDESA applied the same general risk management policy as that described in its Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2018. For this period, the financial instruments and types of hedges had the same characteristics as those described in the previously mentioned Consolidated Financial Statements.

The risks to which ENDESA’s operations are exposed were also the same as those described in the Consolidated Management Report for the year ended 31 December 2018.

2.2. Scope of Consolidation.

During the period January-September 2019, the following transactions were concluded:

The gross gain generated by the divestment transaction amounted to less than Euros 1 million (see Section 1.3.5. Gains/(Losses) on Disposal of Assets of this Consolidated Management Report).Companies acquired by ENEL Green Power España, S.L.U. (EGPE) for a total amount of Euros 2 million, of which an amount of less than Euros 1 million was pending payment at 30 September 2019 (see Section 4.2. Cash Flows of this Consolidated Management Report).Company established by ENDESA Energía, S.A.U.Stake acquired by ENEL Green Power España, S.L.U. (EGPE) for an amount of less than Euros 1 million (see Section 4.2. Cash Flows of this Consolidated Management Report).The gross gain generated by the divestment transaction amounted to less than Euros 1 million (see Section 1.3.5. Gains/(Losses) on Disposal of Assets of this Consolidated Management Report).

ENDESA has recognised the acquisition of Energía Neta Sa Caseta Llucmajor, S.L.U., Baleares Energy, S.L.U. and Baikal Enterprise, S.L.U. as a business combination, and in application of the acquisition method, it has recognised definitively, on the date of acquisition, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (Net Assets Acquired) of these companies at their fair value under the following headings in the consolidated financial statements:

Millions of Euros
	Fair Value
Non-current assets	3
Property, plant and equipment	3
TOTAL ASSETS	3
Non-current liabilities	1
Deferred tax liabilities	1
TOTAL LIABILITIES	1
Fair Value of Net Assets Acquired	2

The companies acquired are currently waiting for permits and licences to carry out their projects, so construction of the renewable energy facilities has not yet started and no ordinary revenue has been generated since their respective acquisition dates.

3. Regulatory framework.

From a regulatory perspective, the main highlights during the period were as follows:

2019 electricity tariff.

Ministerial Order TEC/1366/2018, of 20 December 2018, establishing access tariffs for 2019, was published in the Official State Gazette on 22 December 2018. Electricity access tariffs remained unchanged in the Order. This Order repealed the incentive for availability of Order ITC/3127/2011, of 17 November 2011, until the capacity mechanisms are reviewed for adaptation to European regulations and the energy transition process.

Natural gas tariff for 2019.

On 22 December 2018, Order TEC/1367/2018, of 20 December 2018, establishing access tariffs for gas for 2019, which remained unchanged, and on 28 December 2018, the Resolution of 26 December, publishing the Last Resort Tariffs (LRT) for natural gas applicable from 1 January 2019, implying an average reduction of approximately 4% due to lower raw material costs, were published in the Official State Gazette (BOE).

On 30 March 2019, the Official State Gazette published the Resolution of the Directorate General of Energy Policy and Mines of 22 March 2019, establishing the last resort tariff (LRT) for natural gas applicable from 1 April 2019. Depending on whether this is Last Resort Tariff 1 (LRT1) or Last Resort Tariff 2 (LRT2), this will decrease by an average of 5.2% and 6.6% respectively compared to the previous quarter due to lower raw material costs.

Energy efficiency.

Law 18/2014 of 15 October 2014, approving urgent measures to boost growth, competitiveness and efficiency, with regard to energy efficiency, created the Energy Efficiency National Fund with the aim of achieving energy savings.

Order TEC/332/2019 of 20 March 2019, entailed a contribution by ENDESA to the Energy Efficiency National Fund of Euros 29 million, corresponding to its 2019 obligations.

Royal Decree regulating self-consumption.

On 6 April 2019, the Official State Gazette published Royal Decree 244/2019, of 5 April 2019, regulating the administrative, technical and economic conditions of the self-consumption of electricity, in compliance with Royal Decree Law 15/2018, of 5 October 2018, on urgent measures for energy transition and consumer protection.

Royal Decree 244/2019, of 5 April 2019, addresses the following points, among others:

In addition to the individual self-consumption connected to an internal grid, it includes the concept of collective self-consumption, whereby a group of consumers can be associated with the same generation facility (for example, homeowners' associations or companies/industries located in the same area).It also defines the concept of “installing production facilities close to consumption facilities and associated with them”, thereby enabling self-consumption using generation facilities located in the same building (the current situation) and other facilities nearby.It introduces a simplified mechanism to compensate surpluses (energy generated by self-consumption facilities that is not immediately used by the customer) for installations with capacity of less than 100 kW and provided that electricity is produced using renewable sources. In this case, to obtain compensation it will not be necessary to set up as an energy producer, as the supply company will compensate the user for any surplus energy through its monthly invoice. This compensation could be as much as 100% of the power consumed during the month.For collective and communal self-consumption, the energy will be shared among associated consumers in proportion to their contracted power and the Royal Decree permits the development of dynamic sharing ratios so that the consumer can take advantage of the surplus produced by another associated consumer if it is not consuming its allocated share.Administrative procedures for all consumers will be simplified, particularly for small self-consumers (installation of up to 15kW or 100kW, for self-consumption without surpluses). Measurement configurations have been simplified such that in most cases a single meter at the distribution network border will be sufficient.Lastly, a monitoring system has been established for these installations to supervise their impact on System operations and allow them to be integrated gradually and securely.

Renewable auctions in Non-mainland Territories (TNP) electricity systems.

Order TEC/1380/2018, of 20 December 2018, was published in the Official State Gazette (“BOE”) on 25 December 2018. This Order establishes the regulatory terms for concession of support for investment in wind and solar power generation facilities located in Non-mainland Territories (TNP), co-financed with funds from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).

On 27 December 2018, the Institute for Energy Diversification and Savings (“IDAE") passed a Resolution, convening auctions of subsidies for investment in wind facilities in the Canary Islands, with an allocation of Euros 80 million and maximum power of 217 MW. On 27 June 2019, the final resolution was published, and ENDESA was awarded wind power of 16.1 MW.

Further, on 27 March 2019, the Institute for Energy Diversification and Savings (“IDAE") passed a Resolution, convening auctions of subsidies for investment in photovoltaic facilities in the Balearic Islands, with an allocation of Euros 40 million. The bidding period has finished, pending final resolution of the auction.

Strategic energy and climate framework.

The European Union (EU) has made a clear commitment to fight against global warning, setting a target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80% from 1990 to 2050, and defining ambitious goals and objectives for all member states. It also signed the Paris Agreement, the aim of which is to prevent the planet from warming by more than 2ºC compared to pre-industrial levels, in addition to other efforts to ensure the global rise in temperature does not exceed 1.5ºC.

These targets are currently being transposed into Spanish law and on 22 February 2019, the Ministry for the Ecological Transition opened a public consultation on the Strategic Energy and Climate Framework, containing mainly the following documents:

Draft Law on climate change and energy transition: This sets out the regulatory and institutional framework to introduce the Union European's (EU) commitment to decarbonising the economy through to 2050, and the global commitment of the Paris Agreement. Specifically, it would set two time frames: for 2030, a target to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by at least 20% compared to 1990, a target to generate 70% of electricity using renewable sources and a target to improve energy efficiency by at least 35% compared to the baseline scenario; and for 2050, a target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 90% compared to 1990 and an Electricity System that is 100% based on renewable sources. The Draft law also sets out specific measures to help achieve these targets. These include: measures to promote renewable energies; limits on the use of hydrocarbons, cutbacks on subsidies for fossil fuels and revising their tax treatment; promotion of electric mobility; definition of impact indicators and indicators to measure adaptation to climate change; or the introduction of a framework for the mobilisation of economic resources for the transition.Draft National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan (“PNIEC”) 2021-2030: The framework for the national strategic plan to integrate the energy and climate policy, reflecting Spain's contribution to achieving the targets set by the European Union (EU). The draft National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan (“PNIEC”) also establishes the milestones and steps in the transition towards modernising the whole economy and includes: a 31% reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions vs 1990, roll-out of renewable energies to account for 42% of total energy produced in the country (74% for electricity generation) and a 39.6% improvement in energy efficiency. It also establishes the effort required from all sectors (energy, industrial, transport, agriculture, residential, waste, and natural supplies) through to 2030. The Ministry for the Ecological Transition has submitted the Draft National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan (“PNIEC”) 2021-2030 to the European Commission, as have the other EU member states, starting a structured dialogue which will conclude with the Plan being approved at the end of 2019.A fair transition strategy: The objective is to increase job opportunities in areas that will be affected by the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Spanish National Strategy to Combat Energy Poverty.

On 5 April 2019, the Council of Ministers approved the National Strategy to Combat Energy Poverty 2019-2024, in response to the mandate set out in Royal Decree Law 15/2018, of 5 October 2018, on urgent measures for energy transition and consumer protection.

The instrument defines the concepts of energy poverty and vulnerable consumers, providing a diagnosis of the current status of energy poverty, including the impact on health, personal and social development and equality, and establishes lines of action and reduction targets.

The National Strategy to Combat Energy Poverty is the result of the need to maintain and improve benefit systems (electric and thermal Social Bonus) as transition tools that will give increased importance to structural measures to find long-term solutions for the root cause.

To properly analyse and monitor the different types of energy poverty, the indicators established by the European Energy Poverty Observatory are used as the official primary indicators (high share of energy expenditure in income, hidden energy poverty, inability to keep home adequately warm and arrears on utility bills). In order to improve the lowest value in the series of these indicators in 2008-2017, and raise the European Union (EU) average, the Strategy establishes a minimum reduction objective of 25% in 2025 (vs 2017), with a target of 50%.

The National Strategy to Combat Energy Poverty will have a duration of five years (2019-2024), and a series of operating plans are expected to be developed for its implementation. It will be managed and monitored by the Institute for Energy Diversification and Savings (“IDAE").

The National Strategy to Combat Energy Poverty establishes four lines of action, comprising 19 concrete measures:

Improve the awareness of energy poverty through a detailed study of the energy expenditure of consumers according to the climate zone they live in, considering among other factors, the presence of minors in the household. The indicators will be updated by the government on an annual basis.Improve the response to the current energy poverty situation. Among other aspects, a new Social Bonus is considered to be necessary; the main lines of which are as follows: it will be an energy Social Bonus (for all types of energy supply), that should be directly granted by the Authorities (automation) and management mechanisms should be implemented in concert with the Public Administrations involved. Extraordinary responses are also defined, such as not allowing supply to be cut off, in extreme weather conditions.Facilitate structural change through short, medium and long-term measures for the energy rehabilitation of housing and replacement of old appliances and machinery with efficient apparatus.Protection measures for consumers and social awareness. Among other actions, a protocol will be established to detect vulnerability through family doctors and the management of information on public benefits will be standardised to ensure this information is included in the existing universal social card. To raise public awareness, communication actions will be rolled out on the use of smart meters, consumption habits, energy savings and efficiency improvements, and a permanent communication channel set up for individuals and groups.

Social Bonus (or Social Tariff)

The Order TEC/1080/2019, of 23 October, has established the distribution percentage of the financing of the 2019 Social Bonus, being the percentage corresponding to ENDESA, S.A. 36.26%, compared to the current 37.15%.

Public consultation on the draft Royal Decree establishing the methodology for calculating Electricity and Gas System charges.

Royal Decree Law 1/2019, of 11 January 2019, establishes, among other points, that the government must approve the calculation methodology for Electricity and Gas System charges before 1 January 2020. Therefore, in May 2019 the Ministry for the Ecological Transition opened a public consultation prior to drawing up the Royal Decree establishing the calculation methodology for Electricity and Gas System charges and its structure, in order to obtain the opinions of all agents and parties involved.

This methodology must establish the variables used to distribute the costs that have to be covered by the charges, in a way that is not discriminatory and that is aligned with the government's energy policies, i.e. that fosters efficiency, the electrification of the economy and a fair energy transition.

Spanish Markets and Competition Commission (“CNMC”) Circulars.

Pursuant to Royal Decree Law 1/2019, of 11 January 2019, the Spanish Markets and Competition Commission (“CNMC”) has an area of responsibility that includes approving and setting certain regulatory aspects via circulars.

In this regard, the Spanish Markets and Competition Commission (“CNMC”) has initiated a process of public consultation on a number of Circulars, among which are the following:

Circular on the methodology and access conditions, in addition to the connection to the transmission and distribution grids of electricity production facilities, with the goal of regulating the procedures, periods and criteria for assessing access capacity and granting permits, improving the transparency of the process, and other aspects relating to controlling the progress of the projects to ensure they are properly completed.Circular on the methodologies regulating the operation of the wholesale electricity generation market and the management of the system, in order to establish energy market regulations for different time horizons (forward, day-ahead, intraday markets, balancing and Resolutions of congestion in the Electricity System) and set the methodologies for technical aspects of system operations to ensure the progressive harmonisation and convergence of the European electricity markets.Circular on the financial rate of remuneration for the second regulatory period (2020-2025), for which the Spanish Markets and Competition Commission (“CNMC”) proposes a figure of 5.58% (6.003% for 2020) for the transmission and distribution of electricity activities.Circular on the remuneration methodology for the electricity distribution activity to establish the parameters, criteria and remuneration method for this activity in the next regulatory period. The draft circular contains a new remuneration formula that regroups certain items included in Royal Decree 1048/2013, of 27 December, and creates new ones. Also, certain aspects of the incentives are modified.Circular on the methodology for calculating tolls for access to electricity transmission and distribution networks, which must cover the remuneration of these networks.

The Ministry for the Ecological Transition has issued its mandatory reports on some of these proposals, invoking the constitution of the Cooperation Commission to analyse and assess some issues that arise in relation to them and the appropriateness of the proposals to the energy policy guidelines previously adopted. There are also other draft circulars addressing the remuneration methodology for the other Electricity and Gas Sector regulated activities.

After the analysis of the Cooperation Commission in those cases in which it has been required, the proposals of Circulars continue their processing in the State Council, prior to their final approval.

Hearing on regulatory proposals for Non-mainland Territories (TNP).

The Ministry for the Ecological Transition has initiated the processing of two proposals for provisions relating to generation in the Non-mainland Territories (TNP):

Proposal for an Order establishing the remuneration parameters in the second regulatory period (2020-2025).Proposed Resolution for definitive costs for the year 2015.

Communication from the Spanish Markets and Competition Commission (“CNMC”) on the level of indebtedness and financial capacity of companies that carry out regulated activities.

On 23 October, the Spanish Markets and Competition Commission (“CNMC”) has approved Communication 1/2019, which defines a set of financial ratios to assess the level of indebtedness and financial capacity of the regulated companies, proposing recommended values for these ratios, and creating a global index of ratios that would have an impact on the remuneration below certain values.

4.4. Dividends.

At the meeting held on 20 November 2018, the Board of Directors of ENDESA, S.A. approved the following shareholder remuneration policy for 2018-2021:

2018 to 2020: the ordinary dividend per share to be distributed in these years will be the equivalent to 100% of net ordinary income attributable to the Parent set down in the consolidated financial statements of the Group headed by this company.2021: the ordinary dividend per share to be distributed in this year will be the equivalent to 80% of net ordinary income attributable to the Parent set down in the consolidated financial statements of the Group headed by this company.The intention of the Board of Directors of ENDESA, S.A. is that the ordinary dividend will be paid solely in cash in two instalments (January and July) on a given date to be determined in each case, which will be duly disclosed.

However, ENDESA, S.A.'s capacity to pay out dividends to its shareholders depends on numerous factors, including the generation of profit and the availability of unrestricted reserves, and, therefore, the Company cannot ensure that dividends will be paid out in future years or the amount of such dividends if paid.

Approval was given at ENDESA, S.A.'s General Shareholders' Meeting of 12 April 2019 to pay shareholders a total dividend charged against 2018 profit for a gross amount of Euros 1.427 per share (Euros 1,511 million in total). The breakdown of these dividends is as follows:
