Lisbon, March 21st, 2025: EDP, S.A. (“EDP”), through its fully owned subsidiary EDP - Energias do Brasil S.A. (“EDP Brasil”), entered into a sale agreement with Engie Brasil Energia S.A., to formalize the total disposal of its stake (50%) in UHE Cachoeira Caldeirão and UHE Santo Antônio do Jari, for the total consideration of R$ 1.1 billion (€0.19 billion, considering an exchange rate of 6.1 EUR/BRL), corresponding to an implicit Enterprise Value for 100% of R$ 2.9 billion (€0.5 billion), which is subject to precedent, regulatory conditions and other usual conditions for an operation of this nature, until the transaction’s closing date.
