Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|
• |
In April 2024, we acquired the Imperial project from Algonquin, a 100 MW PV + storage (4 hours) project in Southern California. On May 6, 2024, the project entered into a 15-year PPA with an investment
grade Community Choice Aggregator as off-taker. Total investment is expected to be within the range of $300 million to $320 million, mostly in 2025 and 2026. Imperial is a well contracted
project that benefits from synergies with our existing assets in California.
|
• |
On March 22, 2024, we closed the acquisition of a 100% equity interest stake in two wind assets with a combined installed capacity of 32 MW in Scotland, UK. The assets are regulated under the UK green
attribute regulation and are granted renewables obligation certificates until 2031 on average3. Our investment was approximately $66 million and the assets
currently do not have any project debt. These are Atlantica’s first operating assets in the UK, and we expect that our return from these assets will be enhanced by the use of our existing net operating loss carryforwards in the UK in
the upcoming years.

Coso Batteries 1 is a standalone battery storage project of 100 MWh (4 hours) capacity located inside Coso, our geothermal asset in California. Additionally, Coso Batteries 2 is a standalone battery
storage project with 80 MWh (4 hours) capacity also located inside Coso. Our investment is expected to be in the range of $40 million to $50 million for Coso Batteries 1, and in the range of $35 million to $45 million for Coso Batteries
2. Both projects were fully developed in-house and are now under construction. We have closed a contract with Tesla for the procurement of the batteries. COD is expected in 2025 for both projects.
|
|
In October 2023, we entered into two 15-year tolling agreements (PPAs) with an investment grade utility for Coso Batteries 1 and Coso Batteries 2. Under each of the tolling
agreements, Coso Batteries 1 and 2 will receive fixed monthly payments adjusted by the financial settlement of CAISO’s Day-Ahead market. In addition, we expect to obtain revenue from ancillary services in each of the asset.
|
• |
In November 2022, we closed the acquisition of a 49% interest, with joint control, in an 80 MW portfolio of solar PV projects in Chile which is currently under construction (Chile PMGD). Our economic
rights are expected to be approximately 70%. Total investment in equity and preferred equity is expected to be approximately $30 million and COD is expected to be progressive in 2024 and 2025. Revenue for these assets is regulated under
the Small Distributed Generation Means Regulation Regime (“PMGD”) for projects with a capacity equal or lower than 9 MW which allows to sell electricity at a stabilized price.
|
• |
In July 2022 we closed a 17-year transmission service agreement denominated in U.S. dollars that will allow us to build a substation and a 2.4-mile transmission line connected to our ATN transmission line
serving a new mine in Peru (ATN Expansion 3). The substation is expected to enter in operation in 2024 and the investment is expected to be approximately $12 million.
|
• |
In July 2023, as part of the New Transmission Plan Update in Peru, the Ministry of Energy and Mines published the Ministerial Resolution that enables to start construction of our ATS Expansion 1 project,
consisting of the reinforcement of two existing substations with new equipment. The expansion will be part of our existing concession contract, a 30-year contract with a fixed-price tariff base denominated in U.S. dollars adjusted
annually in accordance with the U.S. Finished Goods Less Foods and Energy Index as published by the U.S. Department of Labor. Given that the concession ends in 2044, we will be compensated with a one-time payment for the remaining 9
years of concession. The expansion is expected to enter in operation in 2025 and the investment is expected to be approximately $30 million.

In May 2022, we agreed to develop and construct Honda 1 and Honda 2, two PV assets in Colombia with a combined capacity of 20 MW where we have a 50% ownership. Each plant has a 7-year PPA with Enel
Colombia. Our investment is expected to be $5.5 million for each plant. Honda 1 entered in operation in December 2023 and Honda 2 is expected to enter in operation in the second quarter of 2024.
|
• |
In April 2024, Chile PV 3 signed a 10-year PPA covering part of the production of the PV plant in operation and the 142MWh battery storage expansion under construction. Under the PPA, the asset is
expected to sell the electricity at a fixed price per MWh denominated in U.S. dollars and indexed to the US CPI. The PPA benefits from a higher price, given that the electricity is delivered during the night. Our investment is expected
to be between $14 million and $15 million and COD is expected in 2024.
|
• |
In February 2024, we entered into a 15-year PPA with an investment grade utility for Overnight. Overnight is a 150 MW PV project located in California. Under the PPA, Overnight is set to receive a fixed
price per MWh, with no basis risk. The project is currently in an advanced development stage. Total investment is anticipated to be within the range of $165 million to $185 million. We expect to include storage in a second phase of the
project.
|
• |
In April 2024, we acquired the Imperial project from Algonquin, a 100 MW PV + storage (4 hours) project in Southern California. On May 6, 2024, the project entered
into a 15-year PPA with an investment grade Community Choice Aggregator as off-taker. Total investment is expected to be within the range of $300 million to $320 million, mostly in 2025 and 2026.
Imperial is a well contracted project that benefits from synergies with our existing assets in California.
|
• |
In May 2024, we approved a 27.5 MWDC/22 MWAC project in Spain for which we are in advanced negotiations to sign a PPA. Total
investment is expected to be between $16 million and $18 million, with COD expected in early 2026.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance under IFRS as issued by the IASB and you should not consider Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to operating income or profits or as a
measure of our operating performance, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities or as a measure of our ability to meet our cash needs or any other measures of performance under generally accepted accounting
principles. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful indicator of our ability to incur and service our indebtedness and can assist securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate us. Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures
are used by different companies for different purposes and are often calculated in ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies. Adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of our historical operating results, nor is it meant to be
predictive of potential future results. See “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Financial Measures”.

measure of our operating performance, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities or as a measure of our ability to meet our cash needs or any other measures of performance under generally accepted accounting
principles. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful indicator of our ability to incur and service our indebtedness and can assist securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate us. Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures
are used by different companies for different purposes and are often calculated in ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies. Adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of our historical operating results, nor is it meant to be
predictive of potential future results. See “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Financial Measures”.

In the first quarter of 2024, change in working capital included a decrease in accounts receivable in Spain of approximately $3 million compared
to a $62 million decrease in the same quarter of the previous year. During the year 2022, in our assets in Spain we collected revenue in line with the parameters corresponding to the regulation in place at the beginning of the year
2022, as the new parameters, reflecting lower revenue, became final on December 14, 2022. This resulted in a positive change in working capital in 2022. In the first quarter of 2023, collections at these assets in Spain were
regularized, which caused a negative change in working capital of approximately $41 million.

|
Collections from Pemex in ACT were also lower during the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2024.

Item 3. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
|
Market
Risk
|
Description of Risk
|
Management of Risk
|
|
Foreign
exchange
risk
|
We are exposed to foreign currency risk – including euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, South African rand, Colombian peso and Uruguayan peso – related to operations and certain foreign
currency debt.
Our presentation currency and the functional currency of most of our subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar, as most of our revenue and expenses are denominated or linked to U.S. dollars.
All our companies located in North America, with the exception of Calgary, whose revenue is in Canadian dollars, and most of our companies in South America have their revenue and financing
contracts signed in or indexed totally or partially to U.S. dollars. Our solar power plants in Europe have their revenue and expenses denominated in euros; Kaxu, our solar plant in South Africa, has its revenue and expenses denominated
in South African rand, our solar plants in Colombia, have their revenue and expenses denominated in Colombian pesos ;Albisu, our solar plant in Uruguay, has its revenue denominated in Uruguayan pesos, with a maximum and a minimum price
in US dollars; and our wind farms in the UK have their revenue and expenses denominated in British pounds.
|
The main cash flows in our subsidiaries are cash collections arising from long-term contracts with clients and debt payments arising from project finance repayment. Project financing is
typically denominated in the same currency as that of the contracted revenue agreement, which limits our exposure to foreign exchange risk. In addition, we maintain part of our corporate general and administrative expenses and part of
our corporate debt in euros which creates a natural hedge for the distributions we receive from our assets in Europe.
To further mitigate this exposure, our strategy is to hedge cash distributions from our assets in Europe. We hedge the exchange rate for the net distributions in euros and British pounds
(after deducting interest payments and general and administrative expenses in euros and British pounds, respectively). Through currency options, we have hedged 100% of our euro and pound-denominated net exposure for the next 12 months
and 75% of our euro-denominated net exposure for the following 12 months. We expect to continue with this hedging strategy on a rolling basis. If the difference between the euro/U.S. dollar hedged rate for the year 2024 and the current
rate was reduced by 5%, it would create a negative impact on cash available for distribution of approximately $4 million. This amount has been calculated as the average net euro exposure expected for the years 2024 to 2027 multiplied by
the difference between the average hedged euro /U.S. dollar rate for 2024 and the euro/U.S. dollar rate as of the date of this annual report reduced by 5%.
|
Although we hedge cash-flows in euros and British pounds, fluctuations in the value of the euro or pound in relation to the U.S. dollar may affect our operating results. For example,
revenue in euro or pound-denominated companies could decrease when translated to U.S. dollars at the average foreign exchange rate solely due to a decrease in the average foreign exchange rate, in spite of revenue in the original
currency being stable. Fluctuations in the value of the South African rand, the Colombian peso and the Uruguayan peso with respect to the U.S. dollar may also affect our operating results. Apart from the impact of these translation
differences, the exposure of our income statement to fluctuations of foreign currencies is limited, as the financing of projects is typically denominated in the same currency as that of the contracted revenue agreement.
|
|||
Interest
rate risk
|
We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable-rate debt.
Interest rate risk arises mainly from our financial liabilities at variable interest rates (less than 10% of our consolidated debt currently). Interest rate risk may also arise in the
future when we refinance our corporate debt, since interest rates at the moment of refinancing may be higher than current interest rates in our existing facilities.
The most significant impact on our Annual Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements related to interest rates corresponding to the potential impact of changes in EURIBOR or SOFR
on the debt with interest rates based on these reference rates and on derivative positions.
In relation to our interest rate swaps positions, an increase in EURIBOR or SOFR above the contracted fixed interest rate would create an increase in our financial expense which would be
positively mitigated by our hedges, reducing our financial expense to our contracted fixed interest rate. However, an increase in EURIBOR or SOFR that does not exceed the contracted fixed interest rate would not be offset by our
derivative position and would result in a stable net expense recognized in our consolidated income statement.
In relation to our interest rate options positions, an increase in EURIBOR, or SOFR above the strike price would result in higher interest expenses, which would be positively mitigated by
our hedges, reducing our financial expense to our capped interest rate. However, an increase in these rates of reference below the strike price would result in higher interest expenses.
|
Our assets largely consist of long duration physical assets, and financial liabilities consist primarily of long-term fixed-rate debt or floating-rate debt that has been swapped to fixed
rates with interest rate financial instruments to minimize the exposure to interest rate fluctuations.
We use interest rate swaps and interest rate options (caps) to mitigate interest rate risk. As of March 31, 2024, approximately 91% of our consolidated debt has fixed rates or is hedged.
As of that same date, 92% of our project debt and approximately 88% of our corporate debt either has fixed interest rates or has been hedged with swaps or caps. Our revolving credit facility has variable interest rates and is not
hedged as further described in “Item 5.B— Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital Resources— Corporate debt agreements—Revolving Credit Facility” in our Annual Report;
In the event that EURIBOR and SOFR had risen by 25 basis points as of March 31, 2024, with the rest of the variables remaining constant, the effect in the consolidated income statement
would have been a loss of $0.9 million (a loss of $0.8 million as of March 31, 2023) and a gain in hedging reserves of $16.9 million ($20.2 million as of March 31, 2023). The increase in hedging reserves would be mainly due to an
increase in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as hedges.
|
Credit risk
|
We are exposed to credit risk mainly from operating activities, the maximum exposure of which is represented by the carrying amounts reported in the statements of financial position. We
are exposed to credit risk if counterparties to our contracts, trade receivables, interest rate swaps, or foreign exchange hedge contracts are unable to meet their obligations.
The credit rating of Eskom is currently B from S&P, B2 from Moody’s and B from Fitch. Eskom is the off-taker of our Kaxu solar plant, a state-owned, limited liability company, wholly
owned by the Republic of South Africa.
In addition, Pemex’s credit rating is currently BBB from S&P, B3 from Moody’s and B+ from Fitch. We have experienced delays in collections from Pemex, especially since the second half
of 2019, which have been significant in certain quarters, including in the first quarter of 2024.
|
The diversification by geography and business sector helps to diversify credit risk exposure by diluting our exposure to a single client.
In the case of Kaxu, Eskom’s payment guarantees to our Kaxu solar plant are underwritten by the South African Department of Mineral Resources and Energy, under the terms of an
implementation agreement. The credit ratings of the Republic of South Africa as of the date of this quarterly report are BB-/Ba2/BB- by S&P, Moody’s and Fitch, respectively.
In the case of Pemex, we continue to maintain a proactive approach including fluent dialogue with our client.
|
|
Liquidity risk
|
We are exposed to liquidity risk for financial liabilities.
Our liquidity at the corporate level depends on distribution from the project level entities, most of which have project debt in place. Distributions are generally subject to the
compliance with covenants and other conditions under our project finance agreements.
|
The objective of our financing and liquidity policy is to ensure that we maintain sufficient funds to meet our financial obligations as they fall due.
Project finance borrowing permits us to finance projects through project debt and thereby insulate the rest of our assets from such credit exposure. We incur project finance debt on a
project-by-project basis or by groups of projects. The repayment profile of each project is established based on the projected cash flow generation of the business. This ensures that sufficient financing is available to meet deadlines
and maturities, which mitigates the liquidity risk. In addition, we maintain a periodic communication with our lenders and regular monitoring of debt covenants and minimum ratios.
As of March 31, 2024, we had $351.9 million liquidity at the corporate level, comprised of $46.9 million of cash on hand at the corporate level and $305.0 million available under our
Revolving Credit Facility.
|
We believe that the Company’s liquidity position, cash flows from operations and availability under our revolving credit facility will be adequate to meet the Company’s financial
commitments and debt obligations; growth, operating and maintenance capital expenditures; and dividend distributions to shareholders. Management continues to regularly monitor the Company’s ability to finance the needs of its operating,
financing and investing activities within the guidelines of prudent balance sheet management.
|
|||
Electricity
price risk
|
We currently have three assets with merchant revenues (Chile PV 1 and Chile PV 3, where we have a 35% ownership, and Lone Star II, where we have a 49% ownership) and one
asset with partially contracted revenues (Chile PV 2, where we have a 35% ownership). Due to low electricity prices in Chile, the project debts of Chile PV 1 and 2 are under an event of default as of March 31, 2024 and as of the date
of this quarterly report. Chile PV 1 and Chile PV 2 were not able to maintain the minimum required cash in its debt service reserve accounts as of March 31, 2024 and did not make its debt service payment in January 2024 and
October 2023, respectively. Both assets obtained additional financing from the banks to make their debt service payment, but still were not able to fund their debts service reserve account as
of March 31, 2024. As a result, although we do not expect an acceleration of the debts to be declared by the credit entities, Chile PV 1 and Chile PV 2, did not have a right to defer the settlement of the debts for at least twelve
months as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024, and therefore the project debts were classified as current in our Consolidated Condensed Interim
Financial Statements as of March 31, 2024. We are in conversations with the banks, together with our partner, regarding a potential waiver. The value of the net assets contributed by Chile PV 1 and 2 to the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, excluding non-controlling interest, was close to zero as of March 31, 2024 (see “Item 4—Information on the Company—Our Operations” in our Annual Report).
|
We manage our exposure to electricity price risk by ensuring that most of our revenues are not exposed to fluctuations in electricity prices. As of March 31, 2024, assets with
merchant exposure represent less than a 2% of our portfolio in terms of Adjusted EBITDA. Regarding regulated assets with exposure to electricity market prices, these assets have the right to receive a “reasonable rate of return” (see
“Item 4—Information on the Company— Regulation” in our Annual Report). As a result, fluctuations in market prices may cause volatility in results of operations and cash flows, but it should not affect the net value of these assets.
|
In addition, in several of the jurisdictions in which we operate including Spain, Chile, Italy and the United Kingdom we are exposed to remuneration schemes which contain both regulated
incentives and market price components. In such jurisdictions, the regulated incentive or the contracted component may not fully compensate for fluctuations in the market price component, and, consequently, total remuneration may be
volatile. In Spain, market prices have been significantly below the price assumed by the regulation during the three-month period ended on March 31, 2024. If market prices continue to be lower than the prices assumed by the regulation
and the regulated parameters are not revised until 2026, we may have an adverse effect on revenues, results of operations and cash flows in 2024 and 2025, which we expect will be compensated starting in 2026 in accordance with the
regulation in place.
In addition, operating costs in certain of our existing or future projects depend to some extent on market prices of electricity used for self-consumption.
|
|||
Country risk
|
We consider that Algeria and South Africa, which represent a small portion of the portfolio in terms of cash available for distribution, are the geographies with a higher political
risk profile.
|
Most of the countries in which we have operations are OECD countries.
In 2019, we entered into a political risk insurance policy with the Multinational Investment Guarantee Agency for Kaxu. The insurance provides protection for breach of contract up to $47.0
million in the event that the South African Department of Mineral Resources and Energy does not comply with its obligations as guarantor. We also have a political risk insurance policy in place for two of our assets in Algeria for up to
$35.8 million, including two years of dividend coverage. These insurance policies do not cover credit risk.
