Deceleration of the company’s operating growth

The gross operating profit (EBITDA) has decreased by 9% with respect to the previous financial year.

The adjustment to the company’s remuneration derived from the measures in Royal Decree 8/2014, the decrease in the volume of the regular inspection operations, the increase in the execution of household operations aimed at improving the distribution network’s efficiency, along with the decrease in demand for natural gas, owing to the high temperatures recorded with respect to the previous year, constitute the main factors that have influenced the evolution of EBITDA.
