Adjusted EBITDA - Main earnings drivers by segment
Green GenerationHydro: Nordics with increased volumes and improved margins; GER with lower volumes and realized prices
Nuclear: Higher realized prices; volume down due to outage of Oskarshamn 3
Renewables: In ramp-up mode with low negative contribution
Gas-fired generation: Lower volumes; lower margins, attributable to falling prices and unavailability at Irsching site; higher contribution from UK capacity market
Coal-fired generation: Strong decline in generation volumes (decommissioning and disposals in UK and GER; plants in reserve scheme in GER)
Gas Midstream: Back to more normal level of earnings, as negative optimization spillover effects from the past fully digested in 2025 numbers; LNG with good, but lower margins
Power & Other: Weak result

This presentation contains certain financial measures (including forward-looking measures) that are not calculated in accordance with IFRS and are therefore considered as "Non-IFRS financial measures". The management of Uniper believes that the Non-IFRS financial measures used by Uniper, when considered in conjunction with (but not in lieu of) other measures that are computed in accordance with IFRS, enhance an understanding of Uniper's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. A number of these Non-IFRS financial measures are also commonly used by securities analysts, credit rating agencies and investors to evaluate and compare the periodic and future operating performance and value of Uniper and other companies with which Uniper competes. These Non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation as a measure of Uniper's profitability or liquidity, and should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net income and the other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with IFRS. In particular, there are material limitations associated with our use of Non-IFRS financial measures, including the limitations inherent in our determination of each of the relevant adjustments. The Non-IFRS financial measures used by Uniper may differ from, and not be comparable to, similarly-titled measures used by other companies.
Certain numerical data, financial information and market data (including percentages) in this presentation have been rounded according to established commercial standards. As a result, the aggregate amounts (sum totals or interim totals or differences or if numbers are put in relation) in this presentation may not correspond in all cases to the amounts contained in the underlying (unrounded) figures appearing in the consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, in tables and charts, these rounded figures may not add up exactly to the totals contained in the respective tables and charts.
