Looking at the figures
Focus on nine-month 2024 results
Once again, nine-month 2024 results prove the strength and effectiveness of Hera’s business model. The Group succeeded in increasing operating margins even though the normalisation of energy prices led to a 25.3% fall in Revenues, against the backdrop of an anaemic economy and the expiry of the 110% Ecobonus incentives.

Hera on stock exchange
Hera is ideally positioned in a multiutility-friendly context
Hera continues to overperform its benchmark indices, despite the recent reversal, started after the share price reached the year-high at 3.7 euro in mid-October. The solid fundamentals, again proved by nine-month results, provide strong support also prospectively. To date, Hera has already offered a Total Shareholder Return of 12%, which is almost twice the annual average indicated in the Plan.

Message from the executive chairman of the board
A half year with high quality of growth
After the brilliant results achieved in 2023, which provide a challenging basis for comparison, Hera manages to deliver further progress in the first half of 2024, as proven by EBITDA increasing by 2%, EBIT improving by 2.8%, and Earnings per Share up 16%. The half-year growth in Group EBITDA is based on structural components and fully organic: a strong impetus came from the positive dynamics of Networks, where Hera has taken full advantage of the new regulatory framework, and from the strong position in industrial waste treatment.

Hera on stock exchange
Still room for appreciation, even after the rise already achieved
Due to solid fundamentals, confirmed by healthy half-year results, Hera strengthens the visibility of further returns to offer to shareholders, who have been rewarded at the end of last June with the distribution of a dividend of 14 euro cents. On top of the dividend yield, the shareholder return includes a price increase of nearly 20% year-to-date that has led the stock to outperform all benchmark indices.
