1. Regulatory Updates and News

   Resolution SE N°603/2024

   On December 31st, 2024, the Secretariat of Energy published Resolution N°603/2024 in the Official Gazette. This resolution updated the remuneration values for power and energy generation of units not committed in contracts. It replaced Annexes I to V of Resolution N°387/2024 and established a 4% increase in remuneration values effective from January 1st, 2025.

   Resolution SE N°21/2025

   On January 28th, 2025, the Secretariat of Energy published Resolution N°21 in the Official Gazette, which establishes the following main aspects:

   • New Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs): new generation facilities, regardless of their technology, are allowed to sign PPAs either with industrial/commercial clients or distribution companies. This decision lifts the restriction imposed many years ago by clause 9 of Resolution 95/2013. This change applies for power plants with COD January 1st, 2025 onwards.

   • Fuel management: since March 1, 2025, thermal generators are now allowed to manage their own fuel, regardless of which one they use. This decision abolishes Resolution 354/2020, issued in December 2020, and also lifts a restriction imposed by clause 8 of Resolution 95/2013.

   • Non-Delivered Energy Costs: As of February 1, 2025, a set of Non-Delivered Energy Costs has been established: i) USD/MWh 350 up to 5% of the demand, ii) USD/MWh 750 up to 10% of the demand and iii) USD/MWh 1,500 for more than 10% of the demand. These figures do not represent actual costs to be borne by anyone but serve as price signals for scarcity. If a shortage in the supply is discovered during the dispatch projections for future years these "costs" will be included to act as a proxy of operating costs to better reflect the real cost of generation. This seeks to give a signal for investment needs.

   • "Energia Plus" framework: an ending is settled for the Energía Plus framework. Current contracts will be in place and continue until their ending date, but new agreements and extensions will have a deadline: October 31st, 2025.

     New regulatory framework ("Lineamientos de CAMMESA")

     The Secretariat of Energy proposed a new regulatory framework and instructed CAMMESA to issue a document and notify all the market participants which could object

     and/or propose amendments. The goal is to launch the new framework by the beginning of November 2025. As of the date of this document, the Secretariat of Energy continues to work on this subject.

     Resolution SE N°27/2025

     On January 31st, 2025, the Secretariat of Energy published Resolution N°27/2025 in the Official Gazette.

   (1) As of March 31st, 2025, December 31st, 2024 and March 31st, 2024, as appropriate.

   Installed Power Generation Capacity: By the end of the first quarter of 2025 (1Q25), the country's installed capacity reached 43,554 MW, which means a decrease of 1% (or 319 MW) compared to the 43,873 MW recorded as of March 31st, 2024. The variation results from the installation of new power facilities, a reduction in installed capacity and adjustments/repowering to power plants already in operations. The contraction of 319 MW is decomposed as follows: (i) +1,100 MW of renewable sources, of which +637 MW corresponds to wind farms (23MW of new plants installed during the 1Q25), +423 MW to solar plants (205 MW of new capacity installed during the 1Q25), +3 MW to biogas power plants and +37 to biomass, being all installed during the 1Q25; (ii) a reduction of

   1,195 MW in hydraulic sources and (iii) a net decrease of 224 MW in thermal sources, where a contraction was recorded in gas turbines (-155 MW), steam turbines (-470 MW), being all partially offset by +401 MW capacity increase in combined cycles. The decline of 1,195 MW in hydro installed capacity is basically explained by a reassessment of Yacyretá's power available for Argentina and Paraguay. Since August 2024, 50% of Yacyreta's installed capacity is allocated to Argentina, whereas it used to be approximately 88% before then.

   Power generation & demand: During 1Q25, energy demand reached 38,167 GWh, a 1% increase from the 37,898 GWh recorded during the 1Q24. There was a 0.1% slight decrease in residential consumption offset by commercial (+2.1%) and major demand (+0.8%).

   In line with weather conditions, retail consumption rose during January, with a higher average temperature as compared to the same month of the previous year. Then, consumption decreased during February and March. Major and commercial demands increased during the whole quarter (though commercial consumption dropped in February), reflecting stronger economic activity levels. It should be highlighted the growth rates observed in mining, trade and services, automotive and food and beverage.

   On the other hand, generation decreased 1% during the quarter on a year-over-year (YoY) basis. The decrease was driven by nuclear and hydro generation (-20% and -27%, respectively). Renewable and thermal generation rose 10% and 9%, respectively.

   Nuclear generation mainly decreased by the two year-maintenance shutdown of Atucha I, which started in November 2024. Hydro generation shrank due to a combination of two factors: i) the aforementioned change in the allocation of Yacyretá's installed capacity and energy generation upon Paraguay's claim and ii) a reduction of river flows. In this last regard, the contraction was as follows: 78% in the Uruguay River, 34% in the Neuquen River, 25% in the Limay River, 27% in the Collón Curá River, 25% in the Futaleufú River and 1% in the Paraná River. As it was previously stated, Paraguay historically consumed a smaller portion of the energy produced at Yacyretá: while this country took only 15% of the generated energy in 2023, by mid-2024 it started to take its full 50% share, leaving Argentina with a smaller portion of the generated energy.

   The increase in energy generation from renewable sources was driven mainly by the impact of new installed capacity.

   Finally, there was an increase in thermal generation to cope with the lower supply of hydro and nuclear. Despite the slight decrease in availability (74% on average during the 1Q25 vs 76% on average during the same period of 2024), generation rose 9% YoY. The

   growth in thermal generation led to a rise of 9% in natural gas consumption. Alternative fuels (diesel and fuel oil) consumption shrank during the 1Q25.

   Additionally, the electricity trade balance resulted in a net import situation during the whole quarter, with a peak in February.

   The table below sets forth key operating metrics of the Central Puerto group for 1Q25, compared to 4Q24 and 1Q24:

   1Q25		4Q24	1Q24	Δ % 1Q25/1Q24
   Energy Generation (GWh)	5,731	5,416	5,520	4%
   Thermal	4,487	3,767	4,272	5%
   Hydro	793	1,164	807	(2%)

   During 1Q25, Central Puerto's power generation increased 4% to 5,731 GWh, compared to 5,520 GWh in 1Q24.

   This operating result is a consequence of several factors.

   Hydro energy generation from Piedra del Aguila dropped 2%, reaching 793 GWh from 807 GWh in 1Q24. This decline was primarily due to a 27% and a 25% reduction in water levels of the Collón Curá River and the Limay River, respectively, which resulted in lower availability of water for generation.

   Regarding renewable generation, there are mixed results. Wind generation rose 4%, reaching 373 GWh in 1Q25 compared to 358 GWh in the same period of 2024. This increment was mainly due to higher generation from Achiras, Las Castellana I and La Castellana II wind farms, as a consequence of better operation performance (during the same period of 2024 these facilities were either out of service or with reduce operations because of some maintenance works and failures). On the other hand, solar energy generation reached 78 GWh in 1Q25 compared to 82 GWh in the same period of 2024 basically as a result of some restrictions in the node and weather conditions.

   Thermal generation increased 5% during 1Q25 compared to 1Q24, reaching 4,487 GWh from 4,272 GWh. The growth was mainly due to higher dispatch of some steam turbines in Puerto and Costanera sites and some steam and gas turbines in Luján de Cuyo, as well as higher generation registered in the combined cycle of Santa Fe. To a lesser extent, a higher availability was recorded in the Buenos Aires combined cycle and higher dispatch was registered for the Mitsubishi combined cycle, both located in Costanera site.

   Finally, steam production rose 32% during 1Q25, reaching 756 thousand tons compared to 573 in 1Q24. This growth was driven by a 57% rise at San Lorenzo cogeneration plant and a 7% growth at Lujan de Cuyo facility. The surge at Lujan de Cuyo was primarily due

   to higher demand from YPF. A higher demand from San Lorenzo's client was also

   recorded.

4. 1Q25 Analysis of Consolidated Results

   Important notice: The results presented for the period 1Q25 are positively or negatively affected, as appropriate, by a non-cash effect, given by the fact that inflation rates were greater than currency depreciation rates during the quarter. Since the functional currency of Central Puerto is the Argentine peso, our Financial Statements are subject to inflation adjustment, while Company's reporting figures are converted into US dollars using the end of period official exchange rate. Thus, given the disparity between inflation and devaluation for the period, it might affect comparability.

1. The FX rate used to convert Argentine Pesos to U.S. dollars is the reference exchange rate reported by the Central Bank (Communication "A" 3500) as of 03/31/2025 (AR$1,073.88 to US$1.00), 12/30/2024 (AR$1,032.50 to US$1.00), and 03/27/2024 (AR$857.41 to US$1.00), as appropriate.

2. See "Disclaimer-EBITDA & Adjusted EBITDA" on page 24 for further information.

   During 1Q25, revenues totaled US$196 million, increasing 31% or US$46 million compared to US$150 million in 1Q24.

   Consolidated Revenues Breakdown (unaudited figures in US$ millions)	1Q25	4Q24	1Q24	Δ % 1Q25/1Q24
   Total Revenues	196	168	150	31%
   Spot market revenues	109	78	73	50%
   Sales under contracts	70	69	65	8%
   Steam sales	8	8	6	24%
   Forestry activity revenues	4	5	4	(7%)
   Resale of gas transport and distribution capacity	2	2	0	288%
   Revenues from CVO thermal plant management	4	6	2	119%

   This was mainly due to a combination of:

   1. A 50% or US$36 million increase in spot market revenues, which amounted to US$109 million in 1Q25 compared to US$73 million in 1Q24, driven by:

      1. A cash effect on the gap between currency devaluation and spot remuneration increases.

      2. Higher thermal generation (mainly in some turbines located in Luján de Cuyo, Puerto and Costanera sites).

      3. Non-cash effect on the gap between currency devaluation and inflation.

   2. A 8% or US$5 million increase in sales under contracts, which totaled US$70 million in 1Q25 compared to US$65 million in 1Q24, driven by:

      1. Higher wind generation in Achiras, La Castellana I and La Castellana II facilities.

      2. Higher energy sales of San Lorenzo cogeneration plant.

      3. A non-cash effect on the gap between currency devaluation and inflation.

         Being all partially offset by lower solar generation (mainly due to some node restrictions and weather conditions).

   3. A 24% or US$1 million increase in steam sales, driven by higher steam production in San Lorenzo facility, as a consequence of higher demand from the client. Sales totaled US$8 million in 1Q25 compared to US$6 million in 1Q24, approximately.

The increase in SG&A during the quarter was mainly due to the real appreciation of the Argentine Peso.

Similar to production costs, SG&A were also negatively impacted by a non-cash effect due to the gap between currency devaluation and inflation.

This is mainly explained by: (i) lower interest from clients, due to lower CAMMESA delays, and (ii) lower FX differences (income).

Additionally, there was a negative non-cash effect due to the gap between currency devaluation and inflation.

If we deduct the variation in biological assets and FONI FX differences and interest,

Consequently, the Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (1)amounted to US$90 million in 1Q25, compared to US$84 million in 1Q24.

Finally, Net Income in 1Q25 amounted to a gain of US$80 million, compared to a gain of US$32 million of 1Q24.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This release contains certain forward-looking information and forward-looking statements as defined in applicable securities laws (collectively referred to in this Earnings Release as "forward-looking statements") that constitute forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. The words ''anticipate'', ''believe'', ''could'', ''expect'', ''should'', ''plan'', ''intend'', ''will'', ''estimate'' and ''potential'', and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

Statements regarding possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, financing plans, competitive position, industry environment, potential growth opportunities, the effects of future regulation and the effects of competition, expected power generation and capital expenditures plan, are examples of forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of factors and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by management, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, and contingencies, which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

The Company assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements except as required under securities laws. Further information concerning risks and uncertainties associated with these forward-looking statements and the Company's business can be found in the Company's public disclosures filed on EDGAR (https://www.sec.gov).

EBITDA & ADJUSTED EBITDA

In this release, EBITDA, a non-IFRS financial measure, is defined as net income for the period, plus finance expenses, minus finance income, minus share of the profit (loss) of associates, plus (minus) losses (gains) on net monetary position, plus income tax expense, plus depreciation and amortization, minus net results of discontinued operations.

Adjusted EBITDA refers to EBITDA excluding impairment on property, plant & equipment, foreign exchange difference and interests related to FONI trade receivables and variations in fair value of biological asset.

Adjusted EBITDA is believed to provide useful supplemental information to investors about the Company and its results. Adjusted EBITDA is among the measures used by the Company's management team to evaluate the financial and operating performance and make day-to-day financial and operating decisions. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other parties to evaluate companies in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA is believed to be helpful to investors because it provides additional information about trends in the core operating performance prior to considering the impact of capital structure, depreciation, amortization, and taxation on the results.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, including:

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, including cash requirements for, working capital needs or contractual commitments;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the finance expenses, or the cash requirements to service interest or principal payments on indebtedness, or interest income or other finance income;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay income taxes;

• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized often will need to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for these replacements;

• although share of the profit of associates is a non-cash charge, Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the potential collection of dividends; and

• other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

The Company compensates for the inherent limitations associated with using Adjusted EBITDA through disclosure of these limitations, presentation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable IFRS measure, net income. For a reconciliation of the net income to Adjusted EBITDA, see the tables included in this release.

All the information presented must be considered as consolidated unless otherwise specified.
