A. SMAT GROUP DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Dear Shareholders, Fiscal year 2020 was characterised by the health emergency caused by the Coronavirus. While the consequences of the emergency are examined in greater detail hereunder, it should be noted that the adjustments made from the start to our operating and organisational modalities and the actions undertaken to contain costs so as to minimise the financial repercussions of the crisis, all contributed to achieve excellent operating results, bearing witness to the resilience of our company. The SMAT Group's operating results for the year show a substantial stability in performance with respect to the 4.0 Industrial Plan approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting held on 26 June 2020, as subsequently amended for FY 2020 by the Shareholders Meeting held on 25 September 2020. The results were determined by the activities performed during the year by the parent company Società Metropolitana Acque Torino S.p.A. (hereinafter also SMA Torino S.p.A. or SMAT S.p.A.) and its subsidiaries by virtue of the shareholdings held by SMA S.p.A. in its subsidiaries and associates.

In 2020 the revenues recorded by the Parent Company decreased by about 0.61%, a decline that may be attributed to a contraction in the level of consumption for industrial and craftsmanship uses arising from the economic crisis already commented on in the report, offset by the application of tariffs 2.2% higher than the previous year. Also recorded was a reduction in accessory revenues from users (due, in particular, to the reduction in expenses charged with reference to the revision of the Integrated Water Servicer (SII) Regulation and the smaller quantity of formal requests for payment issued during the year on account of the suspension measures adopted during the emergency period), a drop in revenues due to the shutdown of water supply points due to the Covid emergency, and a reduction in sales of self-produced electricity following the reduction in collection fees; all this was mitigated by a relative increase in the activity of biomethane collection from the Castiglione plant and the turnover from leachate and biomass treatments.

A 28.03% decline in “Other revenues” was primarily due to a reduction in contingent assets and unsubstantiated liabilities over the previous year, where such entries had taken on a particularly significant value, as well as due to a reduction in grants for equipment and plant, and adjustments to the reserves.

The “Costs of raw and expendable materials” show a total 3.33% increase from the previous year, in particular resulting from the effect of the costs for materials for maintenance.

“Costs for leased assets and services” increase by 6.15% over 2019. This variation was mostly due to the increase in costs associated with the health emergency (intensification of cleaning and sanitising operations in office premises and water points, higher safety charges in connection with maintenance works), with electric energy (electricity consumption increased and so did the cost per kWh for the purchase of electric energy from renewable sources), with maintenance operations (also correlated with the management of the rainwater drainage infrastructure), sludge transport and disposal, contract work and meter reading services. Conversely, costs for services rendered by Operative Management Subjects decreased and so did gas consumption costs.

A 1.38% decrease in “Payroll costs” may be ascribed primarily to savings obtained from personnel transfers. All this was mitigated by changes in wages and salaries arising from the renewal of the National Labour Agreement and the implementation of the operational activities correlated with technical quality

“Other operating expenses” went down by 5.95% over the previous year mostly due to reduced capital losses on disposal of assets, reimbursements for indemnities due to users, contingent liabilities and unsubstantiated assets. Furthermore, costs decreased due to various factors, including the supplement bonus, contributions to the Mountain Communities, and taxes on public works tenders (following the suspension of the contributions requested for the Covid-19 emergency).

21

The item Amortization, depreciation and write-downs increased by 9.04%, for amortizations on investments concluded and implemented during the year and amortizations on leased goods, and the depreciation of the shareholding in SAP, explained in the proper paragraph. “Financial income” decreased by 46.46% over 2019 due to the reduction in late payment interests charged to users following the adoption by ARERA of the new “SII Late Payment Management provisions” and the measures put in place by ARERA in the months from March to May to support the users. Another factor accounting for the reduction in this entry was reduced Revenues from Related Parties. The financial charges, which include the actuarian assessment according to IFRS principle 16, are decreasing mainly due to lesser inerests and guarantee commissions on mortgages.

STATE OF PROGRESS OF LARGE INFRASTRUCTURE

The Valle Susa Aqueduct and Waterworks This allows the use of the drinking water of the Rochemolles dam through the development of a main duct of over 66 km that, thanks to another 40 km of feed pipelines, serves 30 Municipalities of the Valley, delivering 16 million m3/year of high-quality drinking water. The waterworks will be equipped with three hydro-electrical power plants that will exploit the altimetry difference between the drinking water plant in and the reservoir and will generate electricity thanks to a multi-purpose use of the resources so as to make the entire system self-sufficient. Once on stream, it is expected to the problems that may arise from climate change, by compensating for rising temperatures and decreasing precipitation. November 2020 saw the completion of the works for the supply and installation of the power plant hydroelectric systems. In 2018 the installation of the main pipeline from Bardonecchia to was completed, together with a significant share of the relative completion piping and installation works to create the interconnections with the towns in the valley. A drinking water treatment plant to serve the City of Bardonecchia was inaugurated in 2019. All the pipelines were commissioned in 2020, with special regard to the one connecting and Salbertrand, including rail crossings and 90% of the dispatching lines. Particularly significant will be the installation of a new steel pipeline – 600 mm in diameter and over 5 km long – connecting Rosta, Buttigliera and Rivoli, worth over 10 million (partly funded by the National Waterworks Plan). Construction works are expected to be completed in 2022. The works completed as at 31 December 2020 were worth over EUR 127 million.

Reclamation of the water treatment system for the District Construction works on the ultra-filtration system of the Plant in San Bernardo di Ivrea (proj. 445) and the installation of the first lot of manifolds on the right bank of the Dora River were completed in 2019. The contract for second lot of manifolds was awarded in 2020. The year also saw the completion of the works for the expansion of the sewage treatment plant in Torre Balfredo (East Ivrea), which resulted in the plant being upgraded from a secondary to a tertiary plant for the abatement of nutrients, thereby also completing the

23 treatment system for the left bank of the Dora Baltea River. The works completed as at 31 December 2020 were worth over EUR 21 million.

Mediano Main Sewer The enormous work is a main sewer of 3.2 m in diameter made with a depth of 20 m in underground crossing of the entire urban area of Turin from South to North for a total length of over 14 km. The work (project 3186) is a single sewage main sewer to be built in parallel to the existing one and to be used in alternative to it in cases of malfunction or maintenance. Another of its important functions is to serve as an accumulation tank for first rain waters to be sent for treatment in a differentiated way. Using the new main sewer, it will be possible to proceed with maintenance of the old canal and avoid the environmental consequences of subsiding. In 2018, SMAT drafted the preliminary advanced project, and then published a call for bids to contract the design and execution of the entire job. In 2019, after assessing all the received offers, the awarding commission identified the assigned group for the tender. The project presented on 4 December, 2019 includes that the works are carried out totally in the Municipality of Turin, for the purpose of improving management of rain water collected in the sewer system coming from 30 municipalities in the south-west area of the city, as well as storm water from the Municipality of Turin network. The objectives are: - to plan for the problems stemming from changes in climate, to alternate periods of drought with rainy periods, planning for future generations, - to increase system reliability, - to contribute to reducing environmental pollution. In the Strategic Works Plan, the cost of these works is said to be EUR 146 million and their completion is scheduled to take place during the 2021 operating year, following the approval of the final construction plan.

The Valle Orco Aqueduct and Waterworks This is the greatest and most extensive of the large infrastructure projects in the industrial plan of SMAT S.p.A. for the next few years. It will cover the current water deficits in terms of quantity as well as quality in the areas of Ivrea, and Canavese. The aqueduct will use the water from the reservoirs of Ceresole, Telessio and Angel situated at high altitude in the Parco del Gran Paradiso and today exploited by Iren Energia only for the production of hydroelectric power; the aqueduct will have a positive impact for agriculture, tourism ed other economic sectors.The infrastructure (project 3199) will consist of 140 km of pipeline, for sourcing and supplying that will serve over 50 municipalities directly and indirectly, from Rivarolo to Cuorgnè and from to Ivrea amounting to over 120,000 inhabitants. Over the course of 2018, the whole project was submitted to the assessment of EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) liability at the Ministry of the Environment. On 6 February 2019, the project was deemed as screened for EIA. Following the tender process, the project for designing the water treatment plant and pipelines were assigned. The economic framework is EUR 186 million and the time needed to complete the work is scheduled in the Strategic Works Plan. In June 2019, the Agreement between Regione/ATO3/SMAT/IREN Energia for the use of water resources for drinking water needs was signed. In the course of 2021 it will be possible to conclude the service conference for the approval of the definitive project. With the development and the approval of the final construction project, the works should be completed by the end of 2022.

Revamping the Po drinking water treatment plant The modernization activities of the facilities for the drinking water treatment plants Po1, Po2 and Po3 introduced in the Po- plant complex at the service of the drinking water network of the City of Turin proceed. The definitive project was completed over the course of 2018 and approved by ATO in January 2019. The integrated works contract was awarded on 21 September 2020. The final construction project will be developed during the year 2021. The final delivery will probably occur during the early months of 2022. Also nearing completion is the final construction project for the pipeline feeding the Valsalice reservoir and the Castello in reservoir. These works should also be completed in the early months of 2022. Their overall cost is believed to be EUR 125 million.

Biogas upgrading plant for the production biomethane Situated within the water treatment hub in Castiglione, the plant was completed and commissioned in 2020 with an investment of ca. EUR 5 million (project 12501) The biomethane production process consists of removing carbon dioxide and other undesired compounds (H2O, H2S, siloxanes, halogenated compounds, etc.) from the biogas so as to produce a gaseous mixture having a methane content similar to that of natural gas and suitable for pumping into the distribution network in lieu of gas from fossil sources, with undeniable benefits for the environment and a reduction in CO2eq emissions.

Thermal oxidation plant An environmental impact study is being conducted for this plant worth EUR 50 million (proj. 14396). It will be constructed at the SMAT treatment plant in Castiglione Torinese, the biggest water treatment plant in Italy and one of the biggest in Europe, in the service of 3 million equivalent inhabitants in the . It will make it possible to recover energy from sludge.

The current net financial payables of the Parent Company as at 31 December 2020 presents a balance of EUR -10.786 million, versus EUR -2.403 million of the previous fiscal year. Net financial position as at 12/31/2020 amounted to EUR -249.892 million as opposed to EUR -250.941 million as at 12/31/2019. This variation is due to several factors: a new 50 million loan obtained to support the investments made in connection with the implementation of the Territorial Area Plan (Piano d’Ambito), principal payments relating to current loans, and a reduction in amortized cost for the debenture loan and mortgages. Total gross financial debt of the Parent Company as at 31 December 2020 amounted to EUR 287,089,000, of which EUR 47,983,000 due within the next fiscal year, and EUR 239,106,000 due after the next fiscal year For more details, see the Notes to the Accounts of the Parent Company SMAT S.p.A. The situation of the Group is substantially similar: the net financial position as to 31 December 2020 amounts to -249,201 kEuro versus the -231,668 kEuro of the previous fiscal year. The difference versus the results of the Parent Comany is mainly determined by the liquidity of subsidiary AIDA Ambiente.

FINANCIAL RISKS Below you will find comments regarding the financial risks to which the group business is exposed and the hedges provided where needed.

Liquidity risk The financial activity is, for the most part, managed separately by each company of the Group with autonomous management of the financial flows and current accounts in banks utilized for collection and payment operations, as well as negotiations with the banking system for collection and payment transactions. Starting in fiscal year 2015, a cash-pooling system was activated between the Parent Company and its subsidiary Risorse Idriche S.p.A. to optimize the liquid assets management and the associated financial charges through a greater integration of the control by the Parent Company. Starting in fiscal year 2015, a cash-pooling system was activated between the Parent Company and its subsidiary Risorse Idriche S.p.A. to optimize the liquid assets management and the associated financial charges through a greater integration of the control by the Parent Company.

Guarantees and covenants on the debt

26

The composition and conditions of the loans are itemized in the Notes to the Accounts in the comment on the financial liabilities. As at 12/31/2020 part of the financial position of the Group and of the Company is represented by loan agreements that involve clauses — in line with international procedures — that forbid some operations. Amongst them, the commitment to not grant future financiers any burden on any own assets (negative covenant) and the commitment to treat the obligations undertaken on equal terms with all other present and future obligations (equal pace). Financial covenants are provided, as better detailed in the Notes to the Consolidated Accounts and — in cases of noncompliance with even only one of the aforementioned financial parameters — the lending institutions have the right to terminate the agreement early.

Interest rate risk The Group is exposed to the risk of fluctuation of the interest rates deriving from the financial indebtedness, and it varies according to its composition as variable or fixed rate. To 31 December 2020 the medium to long term fundings are 21.6% at variable rate and 78.4% at fixed rate . The Parent Company adopted the strategy of limiting as much as possible the exposure to the risk of growing interest rates through the preferential access to EU fundings released by the European Bank for the investments with guarantee by a national Bank, in order to benefit of both the lower onerousness of the provisions and of the lower content of the guarantee, attaining medium to long term fundings at variable rate and agreeing on EURIBOR increases that are lower than the market standards. Furthermore, also in the perspective of limiting the exposure to the risk of rising rates, the Parent Company requested the granting of the loans obtained in the fiscal year being closed at a fixed rate and — in 2017 - it diversified the sources of financing through the issue of a fixed rate debenture loan.

Exchange rate risk The Group is not exposed to the exchange rate risk and — consequently – as at the date of 31 December 2020, does not detain any financial derivative instruments to cover the exchange rate risk.

Rating On 26 June 2015 Standard & Poor’s granted the Company the “BBB” rating level (“A+” for SMAT stand alone). Subsequently, Standard & Poor’s released the following Rating Actions: - On 28 June 2016, it confirmed Corporate Credit Rating “BBB” on the long term and the steady outlook; - On 13 February 2017, it confirmed Corporate Credit Rating “BBB” on the long term and the steady ’outlook , and it allocated preliminary rating “BBB” to the planned issue of bonds; - On 5 April 2017, it confirmed corporate credit rating “BBB” on the long term, revising the outlook from steady to negative, only as a function of the revision of the outlook on the Municipality of Turin, and it confirmed preliminary rating “BBB”to the planned issue of bonds; - On 11 April 2017, it confirmed rating “BBB” for the issue of bonds . - On 2 November 2017 it lowered the rating (Corporate Credit Rating and Senior Unsecured) to “BBB-” in relation to the uncertainties in the long-term regarding the uncertainties on the long term financial strategy caused by the proposal of the City of Turin to transform the company into a non-profit consortium, confirming the negative outlook and bringing the stand-alone credit profile to “bbb+”. - On 26 November 2018 the rating “BBB-” was confirmed; - On 27 November 2019 the rating “BBB-” was confirmed, the outlook shifted from negative to positive and the stand-alone credit profile stayed “bbb+”. On 24 November 2020, Standard & Poor’s raised the rating from “BBB-“to “BBB” with a “stable” outlook.

F. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING FISCAL YEAR 2020

F1. Monitoring of impacts related to the COVID-19 emergency. Since the early months of 2020, the outbreak of the Coronavirus, which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation on 11 March 2020, and the restrictive measures adopted by the public authorities to combat its spread, have caused the most severe economic downturn in recent history. SMAT did not suffer directly from the business interruption and spared no effort to adapt its organisational model so as to ensure normal levels in the supply of public utility services, showing resilience and focusing first and foremost on protecting the health of workers and users; to this end, the company put in place several measures, adapting them to changing conditions on a case-by-case basis, and namely:

- It set up a Committee for the implementation of and monitoring compliance with the national protocol, with the aim to verify the application of the general rules set out in the national protocol signed by the Government and the Social Partners. In the course of 2020, numerous Agreements were signed with the Trade Unions on measures to contain and combat the Covid-19 virus; - It created dedicated Intranet and messaging channels providing indications on the behaviour to be adopted to prevent contagion; to this end, the company also produced specific videos; - made available improved protective instruments for employees, limiting contact in the workplace through the creation of "closed groups" of employees dedicated to operations management activities that did not require contact; in this connection, where possible new work sites were activated; - reopened disused sites, made available internal spaces used for other purposes, created new locker rooms in prefabricated structures; - developed a new app, Costanza, that ensured constant control of worker safe distancing; - closed all user desks during highly critical periods, while keeping online services and toll-free numbers active and enhancing support activities via telematic channels so as to guarantee uninterrupted availability of services to customer; - protected minimum service levels, also in the most critical emergencies, where the water service operators were working around the clock to continue providing a useful public service, extremely valuable from a social and health standpoint; - to reconcile the primary need to protect public health with the ability to go on working, it limited to the extent feasible the number of people working on site, and whenever possible resorted to smart-working, thanks to the prompt preparation of the necessary connectivity infrastructure and enhanced computerisation of all company processes; - by bearing the relative costs, activated a Covid-19 insurance coverage in favour of all the employees infected by the virus and hospitalised; - intensified the cleaning and sanitising of company premises and water points, increased the availability of PPE and installed hand sanitizer dispensers at all company sites; - it offered local organisations technical support with installation of temporary healthcare structures and participated in the experimental project undertaken by Arpa and the National Superior Health Institute (ISS) for the detection of the Covid-19 virus in city sewers; - asked its suppliers to adopt the same measures for the protection of their employees and paid the ensuing additional charges.

The restrictions and emergency measures maintained for a year during lockdown periods causes production slowdowns and the shutdown of points of sale, which in its turn resulted in reduced consumption levels. The activities undertaken to combat the spread of the virus, as briefly described above, causes an increase of over EUR 1,600,000 in operating costs (net of the savings achieved), and, as foreseen in the periodic reports, affected the economic and financial results of the company, which, while it guaranteed the programmed investment level, experienced a drop in turnover compared to the previous years. Like other companies in the sector, SMAT has to cope with declining consumption and the combined effect of the suspension of credit recovery activities, with special regard to water supply service limitation and suspension, and bill rescheduling for users facing economic hardship, actions undertaken to the advantage of the territory and in compliance with ARERA provisions. The most critical variable for SMAT, in light of the business where it operates, could be future developments in users' behaviour when paying bills, during the emergency period as well as immediately following: but based on the data collected related to the 2020 FY there are significant impacts. To meet contingent liquidity needs

28 arisen in 2020 from delayed payments of integrated water service (SII) bills due to the economic crisis brought about by the COVID-19 health emergency, liquidity management required a continuous and careful management of payment flows.

F2. Legal comparative study SMAT The comparative study was presented to the ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting convened on 5 June 2020, which, due to the epidemic-related emergency, was held in the Great Turin stadium, where, account duly taken of: • the assessment that emerged in the comparative study between joint-stock companies and Special Consortium Companies, • that the main shareholder, the Municipality of Turin, proposed precise directions for the transformation of SMAT S.p.A. into a Special Consortium Company, • that the second shareholder CIDIU S.p.A. expressed the position of not participating in the corporate transformation of SMAT, activating a withdrawal procedure. The proposal for undertaking the transformation of SMAT S.p.A. into a Special Consortium Company was rejected.

F3. The Industrial Plan 4.0 The Shareholders’ Meeting held on 26 June 2020 approved the new Industrial Plan 4.0 (2020-2024) resolved on by the Board of Directors on 26 February 2020, prior to the outbreak of the health emergency. During the meeting, in view of the possible contingent liquidity needs arising from delayed payment of SII bills due to the economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 emergency measures, it was decided to postpone the allocation of the 2019 dividend to a subsequent meeting, to be held by 30 September 2020. To this end the economic and financial impact of the health emergency on the goals of Plan was quantified with a special focus on the effects on the results for FY 2020 to be expected after the end of the emergency period. On 14 September 2020, based on the data as at 30 June 2020 and the ensuing forecast of the results for the year as at 31 December 2020, the Board of Directors approved the changes to economic and financial results for 2020 envisaged in the Industrial Plan 4.0. The new Plan was presented to Shareholders’ Meeting held on 25 September 2020, which acknowledged it and approved the allocation of profit for 2019.

Focus on the deviations from the PI 4.0 The differences between the actual results and the forecast sin the Industrial Plan for 2020 may be summarised by looking at the company’s main economic and financial figures (expressed in ‘000 Euros) in the table below: NEW PLAN FOR 2020 2020 2020 Industrial Plan = Financial 4.0 Forecast for statements 2020 Average volumes 176.8 mio/m3 169.5 mio/m3 173.4 mio/m3 Revenues 324,740 310,000 318,174 Gross operating margin 120,540 110,580 122,358 Operating income (EBIT) 50,380 30,110 35,136 Net profit 35,790 21,030 23,684 Year-end liquidity 31,147 26,676 37,197 New loan 30,000 50,000 50,000 Net financial debt (243,514) (260,387) (249,892) Self-financing capacity (Net profit + Depreciation, amortizations and provisions) 102,450 93,700 96,485 Investments 106,942 106,942 113,673 Amortization 66,660 72,670 72,801 Compared to the Industrial Plan’s original forecasts for 2020, it can be seen that in 20209 the Covid-19 emergency period caused:  a decrease in revenue substantially ascribable to a contraction in consumption for industrial, craftsmanship and business uses, partially offset by an increase in domestic consumption values and 2.2% higher rates than in the previous year;  an increase in operating costs for the activities carried out to combat the spread of the virus;  an increase in the provision for bad debts in order to take into consideration in prospective analyses the drop in revenue observed in 2020 and the early months of 2021 compared to the previous years.

29

The company’s continuing effort made it possible to improve on investment forecasts, resulting in an increase in amortisation. Such effects can be seen in the net profit forecast given in the PI 4.0, albeit better than expected during the last shareholders’ meeting in 2020. In any case, the economic and financial indicators show value that confirm the stability of the Company are fully in line with the covenants imposed by existing loans.

F4. 2020 Rates Following the update of the Tariff Schedule (Manovra Tariffaria - MTI-3) for the 2020-2023 period as described below, the tariffs applied in 2020 were substantially in line with 2028 and corresponded to the communication from the Local Regular (Ente d’Ambito) received on 16 December 2020. For households in hardship conditions because of the persisting negative economic conditions, the tariff reduction is confirmed with the criteria and amounts defined by resolutions 897/2017/R/IDR of 12/21/2017. Furthermore, upon request of the Municipalities, on the grounds of the high social value represented by the municipal and provincial users, which concerns - amongst others - schools, canteens and public fountains, in 2020 a 50% reduction of the Integrated Water Service rate was applied to said users, so that they could continue delivering the aforementioned services and were also involved and encouraged to invest and pay greater attention and deploy resources in favor of the environmental policies, to safeguard of the territory and recover degraded areas. The subsequent lower rate revenues shall not be the subject of adjustment on the water service rate.

Tariff update By way of resolution on 28 December 2019 no. 580/2019/R/IDR ARERA approved the water tariff method, for the four-year period 2020-2023, with updating every 2 years, containing the definitions of the regulations for computing costs allowed by the rate plan for the third regulatory period (MTI-3), in alignment with the guiding criteria introduced in the previous periods. This is uniform but asymmetrical rate method, in consideration of local differences and programming decisions by governmental bodies, to surpass the Water Service Divide, generate more efficiency in operating costs and management costs, enhance environmental sustainability, also through the Plan for Strategic Works and incentives for consumption measuring instruments. With resolution 83/2021/R/IDR passed on 2 March 2021, ARERA announced that they were starting a procedure to update the integrated water service measurement rules, and were therefore planning to amend resolution 218/2016/R/IDR (TIMSII), asserting that the outputs of measuring operations were key elements not only for purposes of a more efficient measuring method, but also to fulfil the water conservation principle. The method places the sector squarely in the circular economy, also awarding energy efficiency and offering incentives for saving and reusing water. The Plan for Strategic Works (POS) is also introduced, an instrument through which the governmental body in the territory indicated infrastructural interventions dedicated to complex projects with useful lifespan exceeding 20 years, considered priorities for guaranteeing the quality of service for users. In the POS, which collects works planned for 2020 - 2027, the time lines must be included for the interventions, with any available public contributions. Better capacity to program and organise available coordinated financing will be, according to ARERA, the basis for future availability of water resources, also in respect to climate change. In keeping with the provisions of this resolution, with their proposed rate schedule for 2020-2023, approved with resolution no. 774 of 10 December 2020, following resolution no. 759 of 23/07/2020, the Local Regulator defined the regulatory Scheme, Strategic Works Plan for 2020-2027, and the goals to be pursued (based on the technical quality standards established with the regulation of technical quality for the integrated water service (RQTI) model and starting performance levels) and accepted the operator’s proposal concerning the interventions necessary to fulfil such goals, moreover it updated the programme of interventions, the economic-financial plan and the convention supplementary act, as mandatory documentation to the submitted to the national Authority, that has undertaken the relative approval process.

Integrated Text on Charges for Integrated Water Services (TICSI)

The pricing structure applied in 2020 was the same as was applied initially in 2018, as approved with resolution 704 adopted by the Territorial Area Conference 13 November 2018, implementing ARERA resolution 665/2017/R/IDR.

30

On 26 September 2017 the authority published resolution no. 665/2017/R/IDR “approving the Integrated text on charges for integrated water services (TICSI), and laying down the criteria for the differentiation of charges applied to the users”. This resolution defined the criteria for the differentiation of charges applied to the users of the integrated water service (SII) that the local regulators (or other bodies in charge) were called upon to follow in the reorganization of the tariff structure for the final users. The authority rationalized and standardized the tariff differentiation criteria by promoting the installation of differentiation meters that would at least separate the consumption volumes of household and non-household users. By 30 June 2018, the Local Regulator (Ente di Governo d’Ambito - EGA) will be responsible for defining, in particular, the tariff differentiation applied to resident household users, to be determined based on the capita criterion. The EGA will also have to define the new tariffs for the waste water collection treatment service or non-domestic users authorized to discharge their effluent and - industrial waste into public sewers (industrial fee). Finally, the EGA will have to verify compliance with limitations on the revenues of utility providers, adopting, through its own approval resolution, the fee structure to be applied to users of the integrated water service starting on 1 January 2018. In January and then again in December 2020 following approval by the Territorial Area Conference, the Local Regulator (EGA) communicated the tariff differentiation for civil uses of the integrated water service to come into effect 1 January 2020 and the collection and treatment fees for industrial wastewater discharged in the public sewer system.

Water bonus (TIBSI) On December 21 2017 the authority published resolution no. 897/2017/R/IDR declaring “Approval of the consolidated text for the application modalities of social water bonus for the supply of water to economically disadvantaged domestic uses”, amended by Resolution ARERA 7 May 2019 no. 165/2019/R/COM, in accordance with converted Legislative Decree 4/2019 (to Law 26/2019). With the TIBSI, the Authority Implemented the system for the compensation of expenses sustained for water supply by domestic users living in economic hardship. Adhering to the provisions already envisaged by the D.P.C.M. October 13th 2016, it therefore introduced the social water bonus, articulated according to the standard regulations on National territory. The Authority protected the improvement opportunities provided locally by allowing the application of the supplementary bonus. The admissibility procedure and dispensing of the supplementary water bonus are determined and approved by the Government of Piano d’Ambito Entities having territorial jurisdiction in consideration of various territorial specificities. Direct users are given in their water bill through the application of a compensatory rate component, while the indirect users are giving a one off contribution according to the procedures autonomously established by the utilities company. The Authority in Territory ATO3 Torinese maintained improved conditions for users with the introduction of the integrated water bonus, based on resolution ATO3 Torinese of 26 June 2018 no. 692 approving the rate proposal. The Decree by the President of the Territory Authority no. 3 Torinese on 23 July 2018 no. 169 changed the regulations for application of incentives to access the integrated water service based on the Equivalent Eco- nomic Situation (I.S.E.E.) and with resolution no. 697 on 6 November 2018 ratified the Regulations for application of the integrated water bonus. The social water bonus is paid for a period of 12 months (renewable). The applications for the bonus can be submitted starting on 1 July 2018, effective retroactively from 1 January 2018. ARERA by way of Resolution on 3 December 2019 no. 499/2019/R/COM updated the threshold ISEE value for accessing the social water bonus as of 1 January in accordance with the decree. The Torinese Territorial Authority no. 3 also confirmed the Supplmentary Bonus for users in economic difficulty for 2020. Implementing that set forth in the recent "fiscal decree" (Legislative Decree 124/2019), the Authority, by way of Resolution on 14 January 2020 no. 3/20/R/IDR, increased the value of the Bonus on water bills for families in difficulty, guaranteeing reduction not only for water consumption, but also extending to costs related to sewer and treatment services. Furthermore, as of 2020 people receiving social pensions and welfare also have the right to the water bonus, by presenting an application after 1 February.

31

F5. Equalization rate components UI1-UI2-UI3-U4 By deliberation 6/2013/R/COM of 16 January 2013, AEEGSI (now ARERA) established the UI1 rate component in favour of populations stricken by the earthquake, applied as an increase to the costs for water, sewers and waste water treatment starting from 1 January 2013 with a two-month payment by the provider to CSEA (Energy and Environmental Services Fund). Such component is 0.4 eurocents/mc for the service managed. The ARERA set up a UI2 rate component, in the amount of 0.9 €/m3 for each aqueduct, sewer and drinking water treatment service applicable starting on 1 January 2018 and mainly intended to promote the technical quality. The charge deriving from the payment of the social water bonus is guaranteed by establishing a new rate component called UI3 in the amount of 0.5 eurocents/m3 of the aqueduct service applicable starting on 1 January 2018, that is payable by the Local Community. As of 1 January 2020 it is applied to the three water, sewer and treatment services. Starting on 01/01/2020, in accordance with Resolution ARERA no. 580 on 27/12/2019, users of the water, sewer and treatment services are charged UI4 equalisation - in the amount 0.4 Euro/m3 – destined to supply and cover the costs of the Fund guaranteeing water works pursuant to article 58 of Law 221/2015. On 24 April 2020, in a report to the Government and the Parliament, ARERA proposed a number of regulatory provisions designed to mitigate hardship situations and difficulties experienced on account of the Covid-19 emergency by the end users of the services supplied. To support the most vulnerable sectors of the population, the Authority has already defined simplified methods for the renewal, upon their expiration, of energy, gas and water social bonuses. As an additional measure ARERA invited the Government and the Parliament to consider a measure providing for the automatic renewal for another twelve-month period (without interruption) of the bonuses to expire between 1 March and 31 December 2020. This would make it possible to assist the families entitled to the bonus until the coming into effect of the "automatic acknowledgement of the bonuses" (starting 2021 pursuant to legislative decree 124/2019), thereby relieving of administrative requirements both the persons concerned, with limited movement possibilities, and the administrative offices responsible for the granting of the bonuses.

F6. Fulfilment of the technical quality regulations (RQTI) By resolution no. 917/2017/R/IDR of 27 December 2017 issuing “Regulation of the technical quality of the integrated water service or each of the single services therein (RQTI)” are defined as the minimum levels and goals of technical quality of the integrated water service, by the introduction of prerequisites, general standards, associated with an incentivizing mechanism with bonuses/penalties, and specific standards, and noncompliance gives rise to the application of indemnities. The regulation came into effect in 1 January 2018. The utility companies are required to register all the values underlying the specific and general indicators for each of the ATOs in which they operate, and to keep such data for a period 10 years starting from 1 January of the year subsequent to the year of registration. The Territorial Governmental Entity, with resolution no. 720 on 9 April 2019, implemented the objectives ap- proved in resolution ARERA no. 617/2018/R/IDR of aforesaid 27 November 2018. With resolution 46/2020/R/IDR of 18/02/2020 ARERA started the procedure for the quantitative assessment provided for by the mechanism incentivising the technical quality of the integrated water service as per Title 7 of Annex A to resolutions 917/2017/R/IDR (RQTI). With resolution 759 of 23 July 2020. Turin ATO 3 approved the quality goals for the 2020-2021 two-year period.

F7. New ARERA regulations Reconciliation (TICO) ARERA with resolution dated 16 April 2019 no. 142/2019/E/IDR established methods for implementation of the protection system for claims and disputes by final users in the water sector, which providers are required to participate in procedures voluntarily activated by users through the Reconciliation Service. In alignment with the corporate vision set forth in it Social Responsibilities and Code of Ethics, SMAT adheres to out-of-court resolution of disputes (ADR - Alternative Dispute Risolution) through reconciliation procedures.

National Waterworks Plan The Authority, after preliminary activities, by way of ARERA Resolution no. 252/2019/I/IDR on 20 June 2019, selected a preliminary list of interventions to be carried out for the years 2019 and 2020, including the project

32 to “Implement water connections in the Rivoli and Rosta plants” for an amount of 1,800,000 Euros, valued on each year of the two-year period. By way of ARERA Resolution on 23 October 2019 no. 425/2019/R/IDR, the methods for distributing resources for the realisation of the interventions contained in attachment 1 to the Decree by the President of the Council of Ministers on 1 August 2019 were set forth, citing “Adoption of the first phase of the national plan for interventions in the water sector – aqueducts section”, adopted in accordance with article 1, section 516, of Law 205/2017. By way of resolution on 3 December 2019 no. 512/2019/R/COM, the Energy and Environmental Services Fund (CSEA) was authorized to release the first financing amounts. For the purpose of monitoring the interventions (art. 5.3 of resolution 425/2019/R/IDR), every 6 months starting 25 October 2019, and with every request for funding instalments after the initial advance, the Local Regulator (EGA) informs ARERA and CSEA on the progress of the intervention funded and updates the technical and financial time schedule, pointing out any critical problem that may have occurred (delays in the implementation) or changes in the technical and/or financial aspects of a project. With resolutions 284/2020/R/IDR passed on, a procedure got underway to define a second list of necessary and urgent interventions for the water service sector, for the purposes of updating the National Waterworks Plan.

Delinquency (REMSI) ARERA intervened by way of Resolution 311/2019/R/IDR (REMSI) for containment of overdue payments in the integrated water service, with the measures that the Authority intends to implement to contain overdue payments in the integrated water service, in particular focused on the conditions for limitation and suspension of supply for domestic users with overdue payments, not from vulnerable groups, on the procedures for management and containment of over payments in the case of condominium users, as well as instalment payment plans and communications to users to be adopted in the case of overdue amounts. Subsequently, in December 2019 an update was approved in the Integrated Water Service Regulations to align with the new ARERA regulations. The provisions set out in Law 160/2019 were transposed in the course of 2020. Law no. 160 of 27 December 2019 entitled “National budget for financial year 2020 and multiannual budget for the 2020‐2022 three-year period” completed the regulatory framework in terms of both the two-year statute of limitation and several aspects of the management of late payments. Accordingly, with resolutions 186/2020, ARERA transposed the new provisions on the two-year statute of limitation, superseding the previous distinction, provided for in article 1(5) of the 2018 Budget Law 2018, between cases in which the delays in issuing invoices for consumption dating back to more that two years may be attributed to the operator and those in which the delay may presumably be ascribed to the end user.

G. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS OCCURRING AFTER 31 DECEMBER 2020 AND BUSINESS OUTLOOK

G1. Acque potabili S.p.A. extraordinary operations Summarizing the steps leading up to acquisition of co-control shares of the Società Acque Potabili di Torino, on 22 June 2005 SMAT and AMGA Genova (presently IRETI), following a public procedure acquired majority shares in Condotta di Acque Potabili S.p.A. (SAP) – a company founded in 1852 and the first Italian company in the water sector to be traded on the Milan stock exchange, from Italgas/ENI. SAP held, before the acquisition, the entirety of shares of Acquedotto Monferrato S.p.A., the company that manages the aqueduct services in the municipalities of Monferrato.

The intervention by SMAT with the acquisition of SAP, in addition to having significant industrial impact, represented an important signal at a local level, because it guaranteed occupational continuity to more than 200 workers in Turin and in many other Italian regions. SAP became the vehicle through which SMAT and AMGA intend to develop their presence at a national level: SAP also participated in the tender to become a service provider for the integrated water service in territory ATO1-Palermo, and in 2007 won the 20-year concession. This was the basis for the constitution of Acque Potabili Siciliane, the provider of water services to 55 of the 82 municipalities in the Palermo province. Following several vicissitudes, in 2010 Acque Potabili Siciliane was liquidated and commenced a drawn out arbitration procedure, at the end of which ATO 1-Palermo was judged to be the losing party, with the SMAT subsidiary awarded damages for over 32 million Euros (thwarted by the simultaneous administrative liquidation, which the Authority was recently subjected to).

The business model represented by SAP, based on multiple non-prevailing concessions, scattered through different territories throughout Italy following the referendum results of June 2011, abrogating article 23 bis of Law 6 August 2008, no. 133 and the judgement of the Constitutional Court 199/2012, meant that the company Acque Potabili progressively lost its capacity to function as an independent industrial entity.

In 2014 SMAT and IREN Acqua e Gas (taken over by AMGA) then decided to jointly promote - through Sviluppo Idrico S.p.A. (holding equal shares) – A Tender Offer for the acquisition of shares held by private shareholders and the delisting of the company from the Screen-Based Trading System Managed by the Italian Stock Exchange. The Tender Offer consolidated in the control of SMAT (and equally IREN Acqua e Gas) a share holding of just less than 45% and in 2015 – following an inverse merger – Acque Potabili was delisted.

This was the start of rationalisation and integration of business and concessions still controlled by SAP, with division of relative services locally and from a managerial standpoint: in 2015 the transfer of two branches of SAP to SMAT and IREN was concluded. On 1 July 2015, SMAT bgan directly managing 31 municipalities with the ATO3-Torinese territory, which were previously managed by SAP, serving a population of approximately 250,000 residents and transferring 60 employees to SMAT.

After the concession of the branch of the Turin company to SMAT and the Liguria company to IREN Acqua a Gas, Acque Potabili held 32% of the originally held concessions. Another step towards corporate rationalising was concluded in the end of 2016, with the transfer to IREN of a remaining 31 concessions (defined "performing" and located in the provinces of Alessandria, Asti, Aosta, Cuneo, Mantova, Novara, Vercelli, Brescia, Milan, Pavia, Piacenza and Verona), simultanousing transferring 47 employees to IRETI (which took over IREN Acqua e Gas in the meantime).

In the end of 2018, SAP had completed the process of ceding any remaining concessions ("non-performing") with the transfer of the concession in Adria (RO), and in 2019 all the price adjustment transactions for the Veneto transferee Acque Veronesi S.p.A. were completed.

SAP had no direct employees. Operations and adequate organizational frameworks were guaranteed by specific service contract stipulated with SMAT and IRETI.

35

In light of the aforesaid and in relation to the negative result of the case brought by the subsidiary company Acquedotto Monferrato S.p.A. with the Consortium for the Acquedotto del Monferrato, it was considered opportune to activate a series of corporate transactions for the purpose of: 1. incorporating the company Acquedotto Monferrato into Acque Potabili; 2. approving an amendment to the articles of association setting forth the right of shareholders to withdraw; 3. approving the liquidation of Acque Potabili on the occasion of the Shareholders Meeting, which was convened to approve the 2019 financial statements.

On 18 February 2020 the SMAT Board of Directors approved the aforesaid transactions. To carry on the Acque Potabili operation, on 24 February 2020, the company entered into an agreement with associate company IRETI whereby it was agreed that the joint ownership of the interest in Acque Potabili would be maintained after the shareholders’ withdrawal, and all decisions would be taken jointly, even after the liquidation of Acque Potabili.

The merger of Acquedotto Monferrato (owned 100%) into Acque Potabili, dictated by the possibility of limiting the liquidation to one subject and further reduce corporate costs, was completed by signing the merger deed on 10 November 2020. On that date, Acquedotto Monferrato S.p.A. ceased to exist. For civil code purposes the merger went into effect on 13 November 2020 and for accounting and tax purposes on 1 January 2020.

The amendment to the bylaws (art. 6) that activated the right of withdrawal and thereby the possibility of reducing the number of shareholders to below the number specified for widely held corporations, and hence be authorised to adopt simplified corporate procedures, was approved by the Extraordinary Meeting of the Shareholders of Acque Potabili held on 16 June 2020. The right of withdrawal was exercised for 426,111 shares, of which 5,172 were offered as an option and purchased by minority shareholders and 420,939 were bought back by Acque Potabili as treasury shares for a total of EUR 1,094,000. The solution adopted to cancel the treasury shares consisted of removing the nominal value of the shares from the company bylaws. This solution will make it possible to cancel the treasury shares without the contextual reduction in share capital, so that, in 2021, when the process has been completed, the total number of shares issued by SAP will be 7,212,157. Accordingly, the percentage of shares held by SMAT and IRETI in Acque Potabili will increase from 44.92% to 47.55%, while the overall number of shares held will remain the same and Acque Potabili will become an ordinary, not widely-held corporation. the Extraordinary Meeting of the Shareholders of Acque Potabili held on 29 April 2021 approved: 1) the proposal to amend article 5 of the Company bylaws, which made it possible to avoid reducing the share capital; 2) the proposal for an early dissolution and voluntary liquidation of the company pursuant to article 2484 para.1 number 6 of the Italian Civil Code; 3) the number, appointment and powers of the liquidators, and liquidation modalities.

G2. Programme Agreement with ACEA On 18 February 2021, in its capacity as sole operator, SMAT signed with ACEA a programme agreement that embodies their intention to share a gradual process of operational rationalisation and reorganisation designed to overcome the division of tasks currently existing in some municipalities, to reorganise the configuration of the service along the route of the Great Susa Valley Aqueduct, also with a view to prevent the wholesale supply and purchasing of water, and to encourage the municipalities to join the integrated water service structure pursuant to art. 148 of legislative decree 152/2006. Moreover, in consideration of the need to not dissipate the skills and professional expertise acquired, it was decided to meet the aforementioned requirements by separating the water branch from ACEA and making into a “Newco” under the tax ad accounting control of SMAT, while assigning ACEA a minority holding (possibly 49%) to enable ACEA to retain an active role in the territory of and enable the “Newco” to continue providing the services for the area based on an ad hoc service contract. This programme agreement sets up a technical committee in charge of defining the overall operational rationalisation and reorganisation so as to ensure that the aforementioned goals are met, account duly taken of the territorial proximity criterion to maximise the scale economies obtainable through the operational reorganisation of the services.

36

G3. Villar Focchiardo As of 15 February 2021 SMAT has resumed its operational management role in the aqueduct and sewer system segments of the Municipality of Villar Focchiardo.

G4. Hiring Programme As provided for Industrial Plan 4.0, new personnel hiring activities are underway to cover the turnover requirements envisaged up to 2021, as well as meet the needs arising from the acquisition of new businesses by hiring seconded personnel on a permanent basis. To this end, during the first four months of the year 62 people were hired from existing eligibility lists, and 82 more will be hired during the year through specific dedicated procedures. Based on the information currently available, it may prove necessary to hire additional resources on account of enhanced turnover anticipated for 2021, while respecting the replacement rate specified in the Plan and the total number of employees envisaged for the year end, of 1099 people.

G5. Operational outlook and organisational set-up 2021 will continue to be affected by the restrictions associated with the health emergency, but the situation appears less critical than it was in the early month of 2020. The company will continue to monitor the economic-financial indicators and to make innovative investments designed to ensure resilience to the effects of the pandemic and climate change. As of now no further effects resulting in deviations from the forecast set out in the ad hoc focus are expected, while the economic-financial analyses conducted so far ensure the sustainability of the investments planes and objectives pursued. No problems affecting business continuity have been experienced and the organisational structure is deemed appropriate.

H. ORGANIZATIONAL MODEL � SUPERVISION, ANTI-CORRUPTION AND TRANSPARENCY ENTITY

H1. Supervisory Body In 2003, SMAT set up a Supervisory Body (Organismo di Vigilanza - OdV), adopted an Organisation, Management and Control (OMC) model as provided for in Legislative Decree 231/2001, and approved its Code of Ethics. Initially composed of a single member, the OdV became a board in 2011. Together with the Code of Ethics and other elements of corporate governance (independent auditing, internal auditing, quality certification, laboratory accreditation, workers safety and health certification, environmental certification), the OMC model for the prevention of administrative offences constitutes an effective tool for awareness building and control of all the subjects operating on behalf of SMAT, so as to ensure that in carry out their tasks they adopt behaviours inspired by the ethics of responsibility and in keeping with the applicable regulations. The Company’s code of ethics is based on the belief that the behaviour of top management should reflect a veritable shared style in support of the proper functioning and development of the Company. The most important guarantee to be provided to the shareholders and other stakeholders, in fact, lies in the integrity and the ethical values of the persons who work in the organisation, the managers and those in charge of monitoring and control. Employees are given exhaustive information about the code of ethics, which has been distributed to all personnel and is handed over to the newly hired. Senior and junior managers and 7th/8th level employees are asked to sign a commitment to adhere to the rules and principles set out in the code. Also involved in this prevention process are external collaborators and partners: purchasing contracts and orders include a specific obligation to accept and implement the ethical principles contained in the code. The code of ethics can be found in the company website: www.smatorino.it. The OMC model and the Code of Ethics were updated by the Board of Directors on 26 November 2019, to adjust them according to legislative changes, in particular following the introduction of new crimes based on racism and xenophobia, and the introduction of “whistleblowing”, a key OMC model element for the purpose of protecting employees who report illicit acts, in connection with which the procedure for reporting issues or atypical behaviours was also approved, pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/2001, as can be read in the corporate website; the section on market abuse offences was also updated. The OMC model is currently being updated to reflect the latest amendments to legislative decree 231/2001, by introducing the crime of influence peddling, the provision on tax offences and other provisions associated with the company’s plan to obtain an integrated service certification: moreover, extraordinary measures have been adopted in connection with the heal emergency, especially in the Special Parts regarding safety and environmental issues.

H2. Anti-Corruption and Transparency On 14 February 2020, in order to fulfil the requirements set out in law 190/2012 (corruption prevention) and legislative decree 33/2013 (transparency), the Board of Directors appointed a new Transparency and Anti- Corruption Manager (RPCT) to remain in office until the approval of the financial statements for the year 2022. On 12/20/2018 the Board of Directors prepared and approved the “Whistle-blowing Procedure” published on the corporate website and provided to all employees through an internal Service Order. On 29 July 2019 the Board of Directors adopted the Consolidated regulations for governing the right of access to administrative documents and the right of access to documents, data and information, published on the corporate website and distributed to employees with a dedicated internal Service Order. The three-Year Plan for the Prevention of Corruption and Transparency 2020-2022 was prepared and approved by the Board of Directors on 30 January 2020, which was then published and transmitted to all the Directors and Managers of services involved. The “Transparent Company” section in the company website is continuously updated and developed. In 2020 a special training programme was implemented for the Transparency and Anti-Corruption Manager (RPCT) and the relative supporting structure, pursuant to the training requirements specified for such personnel. Training initiatives were undertaken in terms of general training for all employees and specific training for managers, with recovery sessions for the employees who could not attend the 2019 training days programme. The reports that arrived in 2020 to RPCT / OdV were analysed as required in the aforesaid procedures. No facts occurred that could be traced back to phenomenon/behaviours that could be qualified as corruption.

H3. Privacy - GDPR In compliance with Regulation (EU) 679/2016 (General Data Protection Regulation - GDPR), on 14 September 2020, the Board of Directors confirmed the appointment of the Data Protection Manager, to remain in office until the approval of the financial statements for operating year 2022.

SMAT GROUP NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

We report herein under the main criteria and accounting principles applied in setting and drafting the consolidated financial statements of the Group (the consolidated financial statements) Such accounting principles have been applied consistently for all the fiscal years reported in this document.

Principles for preparation of the financial statements European (CE) Regulations no. 1606/2002 of 19 July 2002 introduced the obligation, starting from fiscal year 2005, to apply the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as amended by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and adopted by the European Union (“IFRS” or "International Accounting Principles”) for the drafting of the statements of account of the companies holding capital and/or debt shares quoted in one of the markets regulated by the European Community. On April 13th 2017, SMAT issued a bond loan for a rated amount of a Euro 135 million subscribed by institutional investors and it provided for quotation at the Irish Stock Exchange. In compliance with the aforementioned legislative provisions, SMAT is therefore supposed to draft the consolidated and fiscal year financial statements in compliance with the IFRS starting from the fiscal year closed on 31 December 2016.

The data of transition to IFRS (The "Transition Date") was therefore been identified as 1 January 2015. the Company had already drawn up the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years closed at 31 December 2015 and 2014 in compliance with the accounting principles issued by Association of Chartered Accountants, as amended by the Italian Accounting Body.

This statement of account is therefore drafted in compliance with the IFRS in force at the date of its approval. IFRS means the new International Financial Reporting Standards, the reviewed international accounting principles (“IAS”), all the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”), formerly named Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”), certified and adopted by the European Union.

The Financial Statements schedules and the accounting information reported in the Explanatory Notes comply with the book entries they directly derive from. The IFRS were applied in coherence to all the periods presented in this document.

The statement of account prospectus, as provided for in art. 2423-ter of the Civil Code reports by appropriate comparison the indication of the previous year values. Where required, the data of the previous fiscal year have been suitably adapted in order to ensure the appropriate comparison.

This statement of accounts has been set in the perspective of corporate continuity and on the bases of the contractual criteria of the historical cost, with the exception of some book entries, which are detected at the fair value, in compliance with the provisions contained in the International Accounting Principles.

Structure and contents of the financial statements The diagram used for the profit and loss account is in scale with the different items analyzed according to their type. We believe this presentation, which is aligned with international procedure, is the one that best represents the company results. The total Income Statement is presented, as allowed by the revised IAS 1, in a document separate from net equity, and distinguishes between the components that can be reclassified in the Income Statement and those that cannot. The other components of the total Income Statement are highlighted separately also in the schedule of the net equity changes. The diagram of the equity and financial positions highlights the separation between the current and non-current assets and liabilities. The financial reporting is drafted according to the indirect method, as allowed by IAS7. The general principle adopted in drawing up these financial statements is cost, with the exception of the financial assets and liabilities (including the derivative instruments) which are assessed at fair value. The preparation of the Financial Statements has required the use of estimates by the management; the main areas characterized by particularly significant assessments and assumptions, together with those that have remarkable effects on the situations presented, are reported in section "Use of Estimates”. All the accounting

48

prospects of the equity and financial status and of the Income Statement are expressed in Euro unit, whilst the data entered in the explanatory comments are expressed in thousand Euros, except when it is otherwise indicated.

Consolidation criteria The principles adopted the elaboraiton of these consolidated financial statements are described below.

1. CONSOLIDATION AREA AND REFERENCE DATA These consolidated financial statements includes - besides the Financial Statements of Parent Company SMAT S.p.A. - the statements of account of its Subsidiaries (such statements of accounts, approved by the respective Boards of Directors, have been amended/reclassified as appropriate in order to make them homogeneous to the financial statements drafting standards of the Parent Company and consistent to the drafting standards of the international accounting principles (IAS/IFRS). The control is in force when the parent company has the power to manage the activities relevant to the company and is exposed to the variability of the results. The statements of account are included in the consolidated financial statements starting from the date the control is taken until such control ceases to exist.

The joint control agreements can be classified as (i) “shareholding in joint ventures” if the Group has rights on the net assets of the agreement such as - for instance - in case of companies with their own legal personality, or (ii) “joint control activities" the Group has rights on the assets and obligations on the liabilities relevant to the agreements. The classification of the agreements is based upon the analysis of the same rights and obligations. The companies on which a "remarkable influence" is exerted have been assessed with the "net equity method"

Besides Parent Company SMAT S.p.A., the consolidation area includes: • Company Risorse Idriche S.p.A., where the Parent Company has direct control (91.62%) in compliance with article 2359 of the Civil Code; • Company AIDA Ambiente S.r.l., where the Parent Company has direct control (51.00%) in compliance with article 2359 of the Civil Code; There are no discrepancies in the closing dates of the Financial Statements of the enterprises the Group consists of.

The participating interest in SAP S.p.A., where the Parent Company exerts joint control together with company IRETI S.p.A, respectively at 44.92% , has been assessed with the Net Equity method.

2. CONSOLIDATION PRINCIPLES We represent hereinafter the criteria adopted by the Group for the definition of the consolidation area and of the relevant consolidation principles.

Integral consolidation Consolidation by the "integral method" essentially consists of taking up the assets and liabilities, costs and revenues of the consolidated companies, irrespectively on the size of the shareholding held and allocating the Third-party shareholders - in a purposely-allocated item of the Net Equity called "Equity and reserve of third parties" - the share of profit and reserves of their competence. Companies Risorse Idriche S.p.A. and AIDA Ambiente S.r.l. are consolidated through the full integration system. The asset and liability elements, as well as the revenues and charges of the aforementioned companies are taken in full (line by line).

Elision is applied to: a) shareholdings in subsidiaries and their corresponding fractions of Net Equity held by the Parent Company, allocating the different asset and liability elements the current value at the date control is acquired; any difference, if positive, is reported, if there are the conditions for it, in the "Goodwill" asset item and reported in the Income Statement if negative, b) receivables and payables between companies included in the consolidation area; c) profits and charges relevant to operations performed between said companies, 49

d) profits and charges resulting from operations performed between such companies and relevant to values included in the equity; e) charge off of the dividends cashed by consolidated companies.

In particular, the consolidation procedure required the elision of the charging values of the shareholdings and the corresponding shares of Net Equity in the subsidiaries. Such elision has been implemented in the accounting values referred to the date where the subsidiaries have been included for the first time in the consolidation (for Risorse Idriche S.p.A.at 31 December 2004, for AIDA Ambiente S.r.l. at 31 December 2009).

In past fiscal years, such elision determined for: • Risorse Idriche S.p.A. a greater value of the shareholding in 2004, which was computed into the consolidated financial statements - to the Net Equity - in an item denominated “Consolidation reserve" and amended in 2007, further to the increase in the control percentage (from 83.67% to 91.62%) with computing to the consolidated financial statements amongst the intangible assets in an item denominated “Consolidation Difference”; • AIDA Ambiente S.r.l. no difference.

The greater/lower price paid from the corresponding fraction of payment, deriving from the acquisition of further company shares is computed as reduction/increment of the net equity. The acquisitions of controlling shareholding that occur within the same Group (i.e. “business combinations under common control”) are calculated in value continuity .

Elimination of the intra-group profits/losses For the purposes of the consolidated financial statements, the economic result of the Group only derives from transactions involving third parties.

The profits/losses deriving from intra-group transactions - where existing - are eliminated within the consolidation process, sharing the adjustment proportionally between the share relevant to the Group and the one related to Third Parties, taking also into account the tax effects.

Evaluation of the shareholding through the Net Equity method The shareholding is initially detected at cost and the accounting value is increased or reduced to identify the share belonging the controlling company, of the profits and losses of the subsidiary that are achieved after the date of acquisition. Any goodwill included in the value of the participating interest is subject to “impairment test”. The cost of acquisition is allocated to the pro-rate of the assets and liabilities fair value, as they can be identified, of the related companies or joint ventures, and the difference to goodwill. The share of the fiscal year of the subsidiary of competence of the controlling company is identified in the profit and loss account of the latter, with the exception of the effects relevant to other variations in the subsidiary net equity, different from the operations with the shareholders, which are directly reflected in the total Income Statement of the Group. In case of any losses exceeding the loading value of the shareholding, the part in excess is identified in a purposely-allocated passive fund insofar the parent company is committed to comply with the legal obligations or in those that are implicit to the subsidiary or in any case to cover its losses. The dividends received by a subsidiary reduce the accounting value of the shareholding.

Valuation criteria Tangible fixed assets The tangible assets are identified at the purchase or production cost including the accessory charges, or at the value based on appraisals of the company equity, in case of acquisitions of companies, net to the relevant depreciation fund and to any losses of value. The production cost included the direct and indirect costs for the share that can be reasonably ascribed to the assets (e.g.: personnel costs, transport, customs duties, expenses for the preparation of the area of installation, testing costs, notary and land register expenses) The cost includes any professional fees and - for some goods, the financial charges capitalized up to the coming into service of the good. The cost includes any cost for site reclaiming, on which the tangible asset lays, complies with the provisions of IAS 37.

50

The expenses for the ordinary maintenance are fully charged to the Income Statement. The costs for improvements, modernization and transformation of incremental nature are computed to the capital assets. The accounting value of the tangible assets is submitted to verification to identify any losses of value, in particular when events or changes of condition identify that the charged value cannot be recovered. The tangible assets are entered gross to the system revenue grants which are identified in the Income Statement throughout the period of time required to refer them to the relevant costs; they are represented in the equity and financial status by reporting the grant as deferred revenue. The depreciation starts when the assets enter the production cycle and - for the new acquisitions – it is calculated at 50% of the full rate part, since it is considered as representative of the actual use of the goods. The current assets include the costs relevant to intangible assets whose economic utilization process has not started yet. The tangible assets are systematically depreciated every fiscal year based on economic and technical rate parts that are considered as representative of the residual potential of use of the assets. We report herein under the tables with the depreciation rate parts that have been taken into account for the depreciation of the assets. As required by IAS 16, the estimated useful lifespan of the tangible assets are reviewed every fiscal year, in order to assess the need of an overhaul. In case it is ascertained that the estimated useful lifespan does not represent as appropriate the future expected benefits, the relevant depreciation plans must be redefined based on the new assumptions. Such changes are reported in a prospect to the Income Statement. During the fiscal year that has been closed, no change was reported in the depreciation plans for any of the categories of tangible assets. The land is not depreciated, Pursuant to accounting principle IFRS 16 - Leases, since 1 January 2019, for leases previously classified as operational, the Group recognises: - financial liability, equal to the current value of future residual payments on the date of transition, implemented using the applicable incremental borrowing rate on the date of transition for each contract; - usage right equal to the value of financial liability on the date of the transition, net of any accruals and deferrals in the statement of assets and liabilities on the date of closure for this balance sheet. The profits or losses that derive from the alienation or dismissals of a tangible asset are identified as the difference between the sale revenue and the net accounting value of the asset and they are identified in the Income Statement at the moment the buyer is transferred the risks and benefits connected to the ownership of said asset. Goodwill and other intangible fixed assets The identifiable controllable intangible assets are identified in the accounting; their cost can be reliably determined provided that such activities generate economic benefits in the future. Such assets are identified at cost value in compliance with the criteria indicated for the tangible assets and - if their useful lifespan is defined - they are depreciated throughout the period of such estimated lifespan. The depreciation starts at the moment the asset is ready to be used or - in any case - it starts producing economic benefits for the enterprise. The current assets include the costs relevant to intangible assets for which the economic utilization process as not started yet.

The intangible assets with defined useful lifespan are systematically depreciated starting from when the asset is available for use throughout the period of expected usefulness. The intangible assets with defined useful lifespan are systematically depreciated starting from when the asset is available for use throughout the period of expected usefulness. The goodwill and the other activities whose useful lifespan is not defined are not subject to systematic depreciation, but they are subject to yearly verifications of recoverability (the so-called impairment test) rung at the level of the individual Cash Generating Unit (CGU) or groups of CGU's whose indefinite useful lifespan assets can be reasonably allocated. The test is described hereinafter in "Reduction of the value of the assets". Any write-down ascribed to goodwill cannot be subject to subsequent return to default values. The goodwill acquired against payment during the release of branches SAC (1 January 2014) and SAP (1 July 2015) is not depreciated, but it is submitted every year to the so-called impairment test.

The intangible assets identified as a result to an aggregation of companies are reported separately from the goodwill, if their fair value is reliably determined.

51

The profits or losses that derive from the alienation of an intangible asset are identified as the difference between the dismissal value and the loading value of the asset and they are identified in the Income Statement at the moment the buyer is transferred the risks and benefits connected to the ownership of said asset. Assets under concession The concessions mainly consist of rights relevant to networks, systems and other equipment relevant to the Integrated Water Service given under license to SMAT Spa and which are functional to the management of such service. Such licenses are classified in a purposely-allocated item according to the interpretation IFRIC 12 – Service Concession Arrangements. As far as the depreciation is concerned, IFRIC provides that the latter is calculated on the basis of what is stated in the agreement and - in particular - in a constant measure for the shorter period of time between the technical and economic lift of the assets given in license and the duration of the license itself, until the takeover value provided for in the license agreement is achieved. In particular, the value of the right of use of the public assets of the waterworks of the City of Turin and of C.I.A.C.T., which are defined in compliance with the expert appraisal of transfer, have been reported in this Financial Statements on the basis of the duration of the relevant agreement deed extended by Ente d’Ambito Torinese n. 3. The depreciation of the improvements made to said assets after the transfer date have been determined based on the estimated economic and technical useful lifespan. The depreciations on the improvements made to the well systems entrusted in direct management to the Company have been determined with reference to the estimated economic and technical useful life of the improvements made.

The extension of the waterworks system of the City of Turin, received under a license agreement and for which it was established in the previous license contract by the City of Turin to AAM Torino S.p.A. (now liquidated) to be devolved free of charge at the end of the license have been depreciated on the basis of the estimated economic and technical life of said extension.

The extension includes the rights on networks, systems and other equipment relevant to the Integrated Water Service and connected to services managed by SMAT S.p.A. The implementation of ’IFRIC 12 has required the application to the same infrastructures - of IAS 11, since, if the licensee builds or upgrades an infrastructure it does not control, the relevant services of building and upgrading developed on behalf of the licensor are considered as actual activities developed against purchase order. Since a large part of the activities is sub- contracted and that the margin of benefit acknowledged in the remuneration of the service rate cannot be identified separately on the building activities that were developed in-house, such infrastructures are identified based on the cost that was actually sustained. Shareholdings Shares in partner companies are accounted using the net equity method, starting from the date when significant impact begins and up to the moment when this significant impact ceases. Shares in other companies are valuated at fair value in accordance with the other components in the comprehensive financial statements. Shares held exclusively for the purpose of subsequent alienation are excluded from this approach, and their fair value is inserted in the profits (losses) of the fiscal year. The risk deriving from any losses exceeding accounting value of the shareholding is identified in a purposely-allocated fund insofar the parent company is committed to comply with the legal obligations or in those that are implicit to the subsidiary or in any case to cover its losses.

To ensure the correctness of the recorded value, the shares in partner companies and other companies were subjected to the impairment test. Operationally, for the purpose of this test, the accounted value of reference for these shares was determined and then compared with the recoverable value identified through valuation performed by an external independent expert. In case the share of competence of the Company of the losses in the participating interest exceeds the accounting value of the participating interest, the value of the participating interest is zeroed and the share of any further losses is identified as a liability fund in case the Company is obliged to respond to it.

The dividends received are recognized in the Income Statement once the right to receive the relevant payment is established. In case the related company has distributed dividends, also the following aspects are considered as potential indicators of loss of value: • The reported value of the participating interest exceeds the accounting value in the consolidated balance sheet of the net assets of the related company, including the relevant goodwill; 52

• The dividend exceeds the overall value of the profit and loss account in the period of time the dividend refers to.

The financial assets the Company intends to and can keep until the expiry are reported at the cost represented by the fair value of the initial amount given in exchange, incremented by the transaction cost. As a result of the initial identification, the financial assets are assessed through the criteria of depreciated cost, using the method of the actual interest rate. Non-current financial assets Such category includes those assets that are not represented by derivate instruments and are not quoted in an active market, of which fixed or identifiable payments are expected. Such assets are assessed at the depreciated cost based on the actual interest rate method. If there is objective evidence of the value loss indicators, the value of the assets is reduced in such a measure to result equal to the discounted value of the flows that can be obtained in the future: the losses of value determined through the impairment test are reported in the Income Statement. If the reasons of the previous write-downs no longer stand in subsequent periods, the value of the assets is resumed until it reaches the value that would derive from the application of the depreciated cost if the impairment had not been performed. Such assets are classified as current assets, except the shares whose expiry is longer than 1 month, which are included amongst the noncurrent assets. Inventory The inventory is assessed at the lowest value between the average weighed cost for the movement and the corresponding market value, in order to reflect any conditions of technical obsolescence or low turnover, as reported in the purposely-allocated Write-down Fund taken to direct reduction of the inventory to take the cost back to the value that is expected to be achieved. Receivables The credits are initially computed at the “fair value" and - then - at the depreciated cost, where it is significant, using the actual interest rate, reduced for losses of value. The losses of value of the credits are reported in the Income Statement when objective evidence is detected that the Group shall not be able to recover such credit. The amount of the write-down is measured as the difference between the accounting value and the current value of the expected future financial flows. The value of the credits is reported in the financial statements net of the credit write-down fund. With reference to the impairment model, the IFRS 9 principle – Financial Instruments: recognition and measurement - of the year 2018 requires that the estimate of the losses on credits is performed on the basis of the expected losses model (instead of on the model of the incurred losses utilized by IAS 39) using supportable information, available without charges or unreasonable efforts that required historical, current and perspective data; The principle foresees that the impairment model is applied to all financial instruments, or to financial activities valued at the amortized cost, to those valued at fair value , to credits derived from rental contracts and commercial credits. The Group has developed a credit analysis model whereby it also takes into account receivables not yet overdue in establishing the provision for bad debts, and determines the write-downs to be applied to the different types of receivables past due.

Financial assets and other current assets They are initially reported at the “fair value" (including the costs incurred for the acquisition/emission) at the date of the transaction. Then, they are assessed at the depreciated cost, using the actual interest rate criteria, wherever it is significant and assimilating any losses of value into the Income Statement. Industry information The information relevant to the sectors of activity was arranged in compliance with the provisions of IFRS 8 “Operational sectors”, which include the submittal of the information in compliance with the modes adopted by the management for the operational decision-making. Therefore, the identification of the sectors of operation and the information submitted are defined based on the internal reporting used by the management for the allocation of the resources to the different segments and for the analysis of the relevant performance. A sector of operations is defined by IFRS 8 as a component of a body that : I) undertakes entrepreneurial activities that generate cost and revenue (including the revenues and costs concerning operations with other

53

components of the same body ); II) whose operational results are regularly reviewed at the highest operational decision-making level of the body for the purposes of the adoption of decisions as related to the resources to be allocated to the sectors and of the assessment of the results; III) for which separate information is available in the financial statements. The management has identified only one operational sector, into which all the main services and products supplied to the customers flow, since the activity of the company consists of the management of the Integrated Water Service which is no further broken down at the level of the internal strategic reporting. Cash and cash equivalents The liquidity includes the cash on hand, also in the form of checks, and on demand bank deposits. The equivalent means consist of financial investments with a three-month expiry or lower (as from the date of their purchase), which can be promptly converted into liquidity and with an insignificant risk of variation in their value. Such items are calculated at fair value; profits or losses deriving from any changes in the fair value are reported in the Income Statement. Own shares The own shares are reported at their purchase price and - starting from the fiscal year which is being closed - are reported as a reduction of the Net Equity. Also the counter value deriving from their release is reported with net equity counterpart, with no computing into the Income Statement. Provisions for risks contingencies and charges, benefits to the employees The provisions for contingencies and charges concern charges of a determined nature and whose certain or likely existence that - at the date the Financial Statements is being closed - are undetermined as far as the amount or the date of occurrence are concerned. The provisions are identified when: The provisions are identified when: (i) the existence of a current, legal or implicit obligation deriving from a past event, is likely; (ii) the compliance with subject obligation is likely to be burdensome; (iii) the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. The provisions to the funds represent the best estimate of the costs required to face compliance at the date of the Financial Statements (assuming there are sufficient elements to run such estimate) and they are actualized when the effect is significant, and the required information is available. In such cases, the provisions are determined by actualizing the future cash flows at a discount rate before taxes that reflects the current market assessment and take into account the risks connected to the company activity. When the actualization is performed, the increment of the provisions due to time is reported in the financial charges. If the liabilities are due to material activities (e.g.: revamping of sites) the fund is reported in counterpart to the activity it refers to and the identification of the charge in the Income Statement is performed through the depreciation process of the tangible asset the charge refers to. In case of redefinition of the liabilities, the methods provided for by IFRIC 1 are applied. The explanatory notes also illustrate potential liabilities represented by; (i) potential - though not likely - obligations deriving from past events, whose existence shall only be confirmed upon occurrence of one or more uncertain future events that are not under the full control of the Company; (ii) current obligations deriving from past events, whose amount cannot be reliably estimated or whose compliance with is likely not to be onerous.

Bemefits to the employees (Severance pay) The liabilities relevant to the defined benefit programs (such as the Severance pay for the amount accrued before 1 January 2017 and the other benefits for the employees) are defined net to any activities at the service of the plan, on the basis of current assumptions and by competences, consistently with the working performance required to obtain such benefits; the assessment of the liabilities is performed with the support of independent actuaries. The value of the current profits and losses is reported into the other components of the total Income Statement. Further to Financial Law no 296 of 27 December 2006, for companies having more than 50 employees, as related to shares accrued starting from 1 January 2007, the Severance Pay is configured as a plan with defined contributions.

Trade payables and other current liabilities Trade payables and other debts are initially reported at fair value, net of the accessory costs of direct computing, and they are then detected at the depreciated cost, where significant, applying the criteria of the actual interest rate. The "Other current liabilities" item includes current “bound revenues" share ” determined by Ente d’Ambito Torinese no. 3 with Deliberation no. 483/2013 and reported to fiscal year 2012. Costs and revenues The costs and revenues are reported net of the amended items, i.e. returns, discounts, reductions and any estimate changes. They are identified at the moment the customer is transferred the risks and benefits relevant to the product sold, i.e. as related to the services, in the accounting period they are rendered. In particular, as far as the revenues are concerned: . The revenues for service performance are acknowledged at the date the performance is completed; . Revenues for the sale of water acknowledged and counted at the time of delivery, including the allocation for deliveries made, but not yet invoiced (estimated according to historical analyses determined in relation to past consumption); . Revenues for the sale of products are acknowledged at the moment the customer is transferred the risks and benefits relevant to the product sold, generally corresponding to the delivery or shipment of the goods. The costs are accounted for according to the accrual principle. Grant for Plants The grants for plants are reported in the accounts once there is the justification documentation of the imminent collection by the paying body. These concur to form the result of the fiscal year according to the rules of economic accrual, determined as related to the residual economic and technical lifespan of the assets they refer to. Financial income and expenses Financial proceeds and charges are calculated according to the accrual principle. The dividends of other companies are recorded in the Income Statement in the moment in which the right to receive payment has been established. Income tax for year Income tax for the year consists of the sum of current and deferred taxes. TIncome tax is based on profit for the year before taxes. Profit before taxes differs from the result entered in the Income Statement since it excludes positive and negative components that will be taxable or deductible in other fiscal years and - furthermore - it excludes items that will never be taxable or deductible. "Liabilities for current taxes" are calculated using the rates in force as at the date of the Financial Statements. In determining the income taxes, the Company has taken into due consideration the effects deriving from the last fiscal reform introduced by Law no. 244 of 24 December 2007 and - in particular - the strengthened principle of derivation established by art. 83 of TUIR, which requires the entity applying the international accounting principles to apply, even in exceptions to the provisions of the TUIR, “the criteria of qualification, temporary computing and classification of the Financial Statements according to said accounting principles”.

Deferred taxes are calculated as related to the temporary differences in the taxation and are entered under "Deferred tax liabilities". Deferred tax credits are calculated to the extent in which it is deemed probable the existence, in the fiscal years during which the relevant temporary differences will spill over, of a taxable income at least equal to the amount of the differences which will be annulled. The deferred and anticipated taxes are determined on the basis of the tax rates expected to be applicable in the fiscal year in which the tax credit will be realized or the tax debt will be extinguished, on the basis of the tax rates defined by measures in force or substantially in force as at the reference date of the financial statements. Such changes are entered under either the Income Statement or under net equity, as related to the computing made at the origin of the reference difference. Impairment test The accounting values of the Group activities are assessed at every reference date of the statement of account, in order to determine whether there are indications of value reductions, in case you proceed to the estimate 55

of the recoverable value of the activity A loss by value reduction (impairment) is recorded in the Income Statement when the accounting value of an asset or of a unit that generates financial flows exceeds the recoverable value. The recoverable value of the non-financial activities correspond to the greatest value between their "fair value" net to the sale cost and the value in present use. To determine the value in present use, the estimated future financial flows are actualized using a discount rate that reflects the market assessment of the money value and of the risks related to the type of activity. In case of activities that do not generate financial flows in input, that are widely independent, we proceed by calculating the recoverable value of the unit that generates financial flows to which the asset belongs. When, subsequently, a loss on assets other than goodwill and other assets of indefinite useful lifespan, no longer exists or is reduced, the accounting value of the asset and of the asset that generates financial flows is increased until the new estimate of the recoverable value is calculated, which cannot exceed the value that would be determined if no loss were detected by impairment. The recovery of an impairment is immediately recorded in the Income Statement. Conversion of assets/liabilities into foreign currency The functional and presentation currency adopted by Smat S.p.A. is Euro. The transactions in foreign currencies are initially identified at the exchange rate at the date of the operation. The assets and liabilities in currency - with the exception of the tangible assets - are reported in the reference exchange rate at the date the fiscal year is closed and the relevant profits and losses on the exchange rate are regularly computed to the Income Statement; the net profit - if any - that might arise is allocated to a purposely-created non-distributable reserve up to the date of use. Use of estimations The drafting of the statement of accounts and relevant explanatory notes requires the administration body to run estimates that impact the values of the balance sheet assets and liabilities and on the information relevant to the potential assets and liabilities to the date of the balance sheet.

The current status of generalized economic and financial crisis involves the need to make assumptions as related to the future trend, which can be characterized by uncertainty. Subsequently, we cannot exclude in the future different results from what has been estimated, that could therefore require amendments that cannot be estimated today or foresee them at the accounting value of the relevant balance sheet items.

The estimates are utilized in different areas, such as the credit write-down fund, the Risk Fund for Potential Liabilities, the depreciations, the assessment of the assets relevant to participating interest in related companies and subsidiaries, the sale revenues, the costs and changes relevant to the management of the Integrated Water Service, and the revenue taxes.

The estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed by the Group on the basis of the better knowledge of the activity and of other factors that can be reasonably derived from the current circumstances, and the effects of any changes are immediately reflected in the Income Statement.

Other information Corporate agreements outside the Statement of Assets and Liabilities Bear in mind there are no agreements resulting from the financial statements that can have a significant impact on the equity and financial status, or on the economic result of the Company.

Amounts expressed in Notes to the Accounts Unless otherwise indicated, the amounts reported in the Notes to the Accounts are expressed in Euro units with rounding up to the upper unit for hundredths equal to or greater than 50 Accounting principles, IFRS amendments and interpretations adopted from 1 January 2020 The following IFRS accounting principles, amendments and interpretations were applied for the fist time by the group starting as of 1 January 2020:

56

• On 31 October 2018, IASB published the document “Definition of Material (Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8)”. The document introduced a change in the definition of “relevant” in the IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors principles. This amendment has the objective to render the definition of "relevant" more specific and introduced the concept of “obscured information” alongside the concepts of omitted or erroneous information already present in the two principles in question. The amendment clarifies that information is “obscured” if it was described in a way that generates an effect at first reading in a balance sheet similar to what would be produced if the information was omitted or erroneous. The adoption of this amendment did not produce any effects on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

• On 29 March 2018, IASB published an amendment to the “References to the Conceptual Framework in IFRS Standards”. The amendment is effective for periods starting from 1 January 2020 or later, but advance application is also allowed. The Conceptual Framework defines the fundamental concepts for financial information and guides the Board in developing IFRS standards. The document helps to guarantee that the standards are conceptually aligned and that similar transactions are handled in the same way, to provide useful information to investors, lenders and other credit institutions. The Conceptual Framework supports companies in the development of accounting principles when no IFRS standard is applicable to a specific transaction, and more in general, helps the involved subjects to understand and interpret the standards. The adoption of this amendment did not produce any effects on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

• IASB, on 26 Sepember 2019, published an amendment called “Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7: Interest Rate Benchmark Reform”. The same amendment changed IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments and IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement as well as IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Disclosures. In particular, the amendment changes come requirements for application of hedge accounting, allowing for temporary derogations, in order to mitigate the impact derived from uncertainty about the IBOR reform on cash flows in the period previous to its completion. The amendment also requires companies to provide additional information in the financial statements about their coverages that are directly impacted by uncertainties generated by the reform and to which said derogations are applied. The adoption of this amendment did not produce any effects on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

• On 22 October 2018, IASB published the document “Definition of a Business (Amendments to IFRS 3)”. The document provides clarifications about the definition of business for the correct application of the IFRS 3 principle. In particular, the amendment states that a business usually produces output, the presence of output is not strictly necessary for identifying a business in the presence of a group of integrated activities/processes and goods. Nevertheless, to satisfy the definition of business, an integrated group of activities/processes and goods must include, as a minimum, input and a substantial process that together contribute significantly to the capacity to create an output. For this purpose, IASB replaced the term "capacity to create output" with "capacity to contribute to the creation of output", to clarify that a business can exist also without the presence of all the input and processes necessary for creating output. The amendment also introduced an optional test ("concentration test") to exclude the presence of a business if the paid price is substantially referable to a single activity or group of activities. The changes are applied to all the business combinations and acquisitions of businesses after 1 January 2020, but advance application is also allowed. The adoption of this amendment did not produce any effects on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

• On 28 May 2020, IASB published an amendment called “Covid-19 Related Rent Concessions (Amendment to IFRS 16)”. This amendment provided lessees with an exemption from assessing whether a COVID-19- related rent concession was a lease modification pursuant to IFRS 16. Accordingly, the lessees who avail themselves of this exemption can enter the effects of the reduction in lease payments directly in the income statement on the date the reduction comes into effect. This amendment applies to financial

57

statements for reporting periods beginning 1 June 2020. The adoption of this amendment did not have any effects on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. Accounting principles, amendments and interpretations IFRS and IFRIC authorized by the European Union, not yet mandatory and not adopted in advance by the Company on 31 December 2020 • On 28 May 2020, IASB published the amendment called “Extension of the Temporary Exemption from Applying IFRS 9 (Amendments to IFRS 4)”. This amendment makes it possible to extend the provisional exemption from the application of IFRS 9 until 1 January 2023 for insurance purposes. It will come into effect o 1 January 2021. At present the administrators are assessing possible effects of introduction of this amendment into the financial statements of the Group.

• On 27 August 2020, in view of the reform of interbank interest rates such as IBOR, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) published “Interest Rate Benchmark Reform—Phase 2” a document amending the following standards: o IFRS 9 Financial Instruments; o IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement; o IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures; o IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts; o IFRS 16 Leases. Such amendments will come into force on 1 January 2021. At present the directors are assessing the possible effects of applying the amendments to the financial statements of the Group. Accounting principles, IFRS amendments and interpretations not yet certified by the European Union To the date of reference of this document, the competent bodies of the European Union have not yet concluded the certification process required for the adoption of the amendments and principles described hereinunder. • On 18 May 2017, IASB published the principle IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts which is destined to replace IFRS 4 – Insurance Contracts. The objective of the new principle is to guarantee that an entity provides pertinent information that faithfully represents the rights and obligations derived from issued insurance contracts. The IASB has developed a standard for elimination of existing incongruities and weaknesses in accounting policies, providing a single principle-based framework for taking into account all types of insurance contracts, including reinsurance contracts held by the insurer. The new principle also includes requirements for presentation and reporting to improve comparability among the entities in this sector. The new principle measures an insurance contract based on a General Model or a simplified version of the same, called the Premium Allocation Approach (“PAA”). The main characteristics of the General Model are: o the estimates and the hypotheses for future cash flows are always current; o the measurement reflects the temporal value of money; o the estimates foresee extensive use of observable information on the market; o there is current and explicit risk measurement; o the expected profile is differentiated and aggregated into groups of insurance contracts at the moment of initial reading; and, o the expected profit in the period of contractual coverage takes into account changes deriving from variations in the hypothesis relative to financial flows for each group of contracts.

The PAA approach includes measurement of liabilities for the residual coverage of a group of insurance contracts on the condition that, at the time of initial reading, the entity expects that this liability represents a reasonable approximation of the General Model. Contracts with a period of coverage of one year or less are automatically suitable for the PAA approach. Simplifications derived from the application of the PAA method are not applied to assessment of liability for claims in general, which are measured using the General Model. Nevertheless, it is not necessary to actualize those cash flows if it is expected that the balance to be paid or received is due within one year from the date of the claim. The entity must apply the new principle to issued insurance contracts, including issued reinsurance contracts, held reinsurance contracts and investment contracts with a discretionary participation feature (DPF). 58

The principle applies starting from 1 January 2023, but an advanced application is allowed, only for those companies which apply iFRS 9 - Financial Instruments - and IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Board Members do not expect a significant effect in the consolidated balance sheet from the adoption of this principle.

On 23 January 2020, IASB published an amendment called “Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current”. This amendment aims to clarify how to meke the classification of current and long-term debts and liabilities. The changes will be applied starting from 1 January 2023, but advance application is also allowed. The Board Members do not expect a significant effect in the consolidated financial statements of the Group from the adoption of this amendment. • On 14 May 2020, the IASB published the following amendments: o Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations: the amendment will update the reference contained in IFRS 3 to the Conceptual Framework in the revised version, without this entailing changes to the provisions set out in IFRS 3. o Amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment: it will no longer be possible to detract from the cost of tangible assets the amount obtained on disposal of assets during the testing stage of the asset itself. Such revenues from disposal and the relative costs will therefore be recorded in the income statement. o Amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets: the amendment makes it clear that the charges that may arise from a contract must be estimated by taking into account all the costs directly attributable to the contract. Accordingly, besides incremental costs (e.g., the cost of direct materials processed), the evaluation of the possible charges associated with a contract must also take into account all the costs that they company cannot avoid on account of having signed the contract (e.g., the proportions of personnel cost and depreciation of the machinery used to perform the contract). o Annual Improvements 2018-2020: amendments were made to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, and IAS 41 Agriculture, and to the Illustrative Examples of IFRS 16 Leases. All the foregoing amendments will come into effect on 1 January 2022. The Board Members do not expect a significant effect in the consolidated financial statements of the Group from the adoption of these amendments.

Notes to the entries of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities REPORT FOR OPERATIVE CATEGORIES Identification of service types and the information pertaining to each was based on the elements that the management uses to make its own operative decisions. In particular, internal accounting is audited and used periodically by the top decision‐makers of the Group and its takes a single service type as a reference, and all the principal services supplied to customers converge within that service type inasmuch as the Company’s business consists of managing the Integrated Water Service.

No value adjustment has been operated to the cost of acquisition or production of the assets. As entered in the assessment criteria, the tangible assets also include the recording of the financial charges of direct computing relevant to the great works in progress.

The sources of income owned by the Group as property have been depreciated in the ordinary way in compliance with the assessment criteria detailed in these Notes to the Accounts as well as a function of representative rates of the relevant estimated residual potential for utilization as at the date of this Financial Statements. On the increments developed in the fiscal year, rate reduced by 50% have been applied.

“Land and buildings” includes the investments made during the year in buildings owned by the company.

“Plants and machinery” includes the cost of spare parts whose utility spreads over several years.

2. Goodwill € 5,928,005 The value of the goodwill to 31 December 2020 can be ascribed to the acquisition of the SAC business unit (1 January 2014), amounting to EUR 96,000 and the SAP S.p.A. business unit (1 July 2015) regarding the Municipalities of ATO 3 Torinese amounting to EUR 5,832,005, entered under the intangible assets with the approval of the Board of Auditors.

Since 1 Januuary 2015, through the adoption of the international accounting principles, goodwill has no longer been subject to amortisation, but has undergone impairment tests in compliance with the provisions of IAS 36. Goodwill was allocated to the reference Cash Generating Unit (CGU) in compliance with IAS 36. and as such it is not subject to amortization, but to verification by impairment on a yearly basis, or more frequently, should an event or circumstances arise that may lead to the assumption of a value reduction. The

63

impairment test is developed through the comparison between the net accounting value and the recoverable value of the CGU the goodwill was allocated to, determined with reference to the greatest value between the fair value net of the costs of sale and the value of use of the CGU. The value used was determined by applying the synthetic income method, actualizing operating income net of taxes (Net operating profit after tax: Nopat) relative to the CGU in the Economic Financial Plan 2015-2033, approved by the Ordinary Shareholder Meeting on 29.06.2015. The Economic and Financial Plan also highlights the results expected for the whole duration of the license and - even though it is drafted on a time horizon longer than 5 years - it constitutes the representative document to identify the prospect cash flows Furthermore, since the license has a pre-defined useful life, the "terminal value" has not been defined.

The discount value utilized is represented by the WACC identified with reference to the sector the identified CGU operates within. The discount rate I(WACC) utilized reflects the market assessments on the cost of money and the specific risks of the sector of activities and of the reference geographic area. In particular, in determining the actualization rate, the following parameters have been utilized: • Risk-free rate at 1.09% • Risk premiums at 6.20% • Beta for the “water utilities” sector at 0.43; • Specific risk premiums at 3.47%; • Cost of debt at 2.69%. The discount rate used therefore was the weighted average cost of capital, estimated at 4.56%. With reference to fiscal years 2019 and 2020 , the impairment tests run do not show any value reductions in the goodwill entered. The results of the impairment tests have been submitted to a sensitivity analysis aimed at verifying their variability with the change of the main assumptions at the basis of the estimate. To this purpose, two different scenarios have been assumed as at 31 December 2020. • scenario 1: actualization rate = 6.76%, with a decrement of approx. 220 base points with respect to the base scenario; • scenario 2: actualization rate = 5.66%, with a decrement of approx. 110 base points with respect to the base scenario; The sensitivity analysis shows little sensitivity of the test with the change of assumptions at the basis of the estimate. More precisely, neither of the scenarios above would determine a loss of value of the goodwill.

3. Other intangible assets € 3,679,327 The intangible assets are entered amongst the statement of account assets, since they are part of the assets allocated to be durably used. No value adjustment has been applied to the cost of acquisition or production of the intangible assets. “Concessions, licenses, trademarks and similar rights” includes the cost incurred for the acquisition of software licenses depreciated in three fiscal years, and for the deposit of trademarks, which are depreciated in ten fiscal years. The value entered under “Assets under construction and payments on account” is based on studies currently underway. Furthermore, since 2014, the entry “Other” also includes the "Surface right" regarding the parking places at the “Palazzo" car park.

The shareholding in Acque Potabili S.p.A. has been assessed to Euro 7.8 million as related to the fraction of Net Equity from Parent Company SMAT S.p.A., as already described in detail in the Management Report.

Pursuant to art. 2501-quarter(2) of the Italian Civil Code, on 13 July 2020, it was resolved to merge by incorporation subsidiary Acquedotto Monferrato S.p.A. into its sole owner, Acque Potabili S.p.A., based on a project registered, for both companies, at the Turin Trade Register on 2 March 2020. For civil code purposes the merger went into effect on 13 November 2020 and for accounting and tax purposes on 1 January 2020. For more details, see the Management Report.

The shareholding in Acque Potabili Siciliane S.p.A. after the filing of the Extraordinary Administration Procedure of 7 February 2012, in bankruptcy since 10 October 2013, has been reclassified as "Other companies” instead of shareholding in related companies, even though it was fully depreciated at the end of the reporting period. As it is better entered in the Management Report, it is completely out of SMAT Group consolidation area.

Pursuant to art. 2427, paragraph 1, no. 5 of the Italian Civil Code, the shareholding in subsidiaries, existing as at 31 December 2020, refers to: . Shareholding in Acque Potabili S.p.A., registered office in Turin, Corso XI Febbraio n. 22, with the following characteristics:

Shareholding in Acque Potabili S.p.A. a) Share capital of the investee € 7,633,096 b) Shares held Qty. 3,429,125 c) Nominal value per share € 1.00 d) Purchase cost € 43,102,341 e) Stake held % 44.92 f) Consolidated Book Value € 7,807,791 g) Consolidated Net Equity K/€ 17,380 h) Consolidated result of previous fiscal year K/€ (3,042)

The independent expert used the equity method to value companies Acque Potabili S.p.A., Nos S.p.A. and Environment Park S.p.A.; to value the other investees, the expert used the revenue method, based on the weighted average cost of capital, of 4.56%. The fair value valuation of the other shares determined a value that is substantially aligned with the cost of investment, already recorded on 31 December 2019, at 3.5 million Euros. Even though the profitability of some investees in the medium term results positive, the values were not changed because they were not considered significant.

6. Deferred tax assets € 16,845,400 This item (€15,565,728 in the previous fiscal year ) includes the credit deriving from the active deferred taxes calculated on the allocations for costs with future deductibility and on revenues for which taxes were paid in advance.

The total changes in inventory from the previous fiscal year amounted to € 270,165. The value of the inventory is adjusted by a depreciation fund regarding slow turnover materials for an amount of € 770,000, which has not changed from the previous year. The Inventory consists of materials whose use does not contain features of multi-year usefulness. It is assessed in the financial statements at the lowest price between the average weighted price and the market price. No financial charges were attributed to the inventory value.

9. Trade and other receivables € 222,712,178 The book value of the trade receivables breaks down as follows: 31 December 2020 31 December 2019 Due from customers • Bills and invoices issued € 199,472,182 193,435,434 • Bills and invoices to be issued € 58,916,498 55,827,875 • Provision for bad debts € (44,121,555) (34,586,580) Total due from customers € 214,267,125 214,676,729 Due from associates € 100,053 38,409 Due from parent companies € 2,080,754 2,275,952 Due from other € 6,264,246 10,507,349 Net book value € 222,712,178 227,498,439

DUE FROM CUSTOMERS € 214,267,125 The net value of receivables from customers shows a slight decrease over the previous year, of EUR 410,000. Receivables from users affected by the Covid-19 pandemic emergency period were carefully assessed for late or non payment risks.

Other current liabilities € 70,940,318 The other payables include: 31 December 2020 31 December 2019 • Due to Social Security Administration € 4,327,177 3,975,458 • Accrued charges € 0 0 • Deferred income € 137,250 151,933 • From other: € 66,475,891 68,283,577 • Local Authority fees € 4,397,468 5,254,925 • Contributions to Comunità Montane € 45,188,751 47,162,712 • Due to Municipalities for accessory services € 435,398 536,366 • Other payables to entities/municipalities for F/D and 2,731,082 2,748,983 equalising tariff components (UI) collected on behalf € • Accruals to liquidate to employees € 6,186,621 6,051,393 • Other payables € 7,536,571 6,529,198 Total € 70,940,318 72,410,968

Payables to social security institutions all accrue by the end of one year and in no case are they assisted by guarantee or encumbered with interest. At the time of drawing up the present financial statements these payables were paid on their due date.

As a whole, payables for Local Authority Fees and contributions to the Unioni Montane decreased by ca. EUR 2.8 million. In particular, Local Authority Fees primarily refer to the amounts due for 2020 based on the determinations made by Turin Local Regulator 3 during the early months of 2021. Pursuant to arts. 111 and 112 of law no. 27 of 24 April 2020, transposing legislative decree no. 18 of 17 March 2020 (the so-called Decreto Cura Italia), Cassa Depositi e Prestiti suspended the payment of principal instalments on mortgages transferred to the Ministry of Economy and Finance; such instalments were postponed to the year immediately following the expiry date of the contractual amortisation plan. With specific reference to the contributions to Mountain Communities, these are paid on the basis of ad hoc communications by the Ente d’Ambito.

Payables to Municipalities for accessory services represent the best estimate of the amounts due.

“Other payables to Entities and Municipalities” mostly consists of payables to CSEA for the equalising tariff components (UI), paid on a two-monthly basis. Residual payables to Entitles refer to sewage and waste treatment charges to be passed on to the operators.

Other payables primarily include payables to users for cautionary deposits and indemnities and smart card charges to be passed on to the insurance company, as well as payables for the water and supplemental social bonus.

Notes to the entries of the Income Statement

Revenues

23. Revenues € 318,121,568

Revenues are made up as follows: 2020 2019 − Aqueduct service € 131,121,506 135,446,135 − Sewer service € 44,772,146 43,876,731 − Water treatment service € 127,844,350 126,872,585 − Hydrants € 4,271,860 4,162,994 − Other revenues € 10,111,706 9,699,933 Total € 318,121,568 320,058,378

All the revenues inherent to corporate business were obtained in the reference territory ATO 3 Torinese, as determined by the Piemonte Regional Law no. 13 of 01/20/1997 and include the best estimate of revenues accrued in the fiscal year for aqueduct, sewers, water treatment services and hydrants provided in the 289 Municipalities acquired by effect of the reunification process. They arise from the application of the tariff differentiation scheme as received from the Turin Local Regulator in late December 2020 following the approval of the amendments to the Tariff Schedule for 2020 – 2023, which reflects the regulations for the new tariff period MTI-3 approved with resolution 774 on 10 December 2020. 2020 tariffs went up by 2.2% over the previous year, in line with 2018 values.

During the period considered, an analysis of aqueduct volumes reveals that, following the closures of businesses imposed by the restrictions due to the COVID epidemic, consumption by craftsmanship, commercial and industrial users declined by more than 14 % over 2019. Public use correlated users also recorded a reduction in consumption, albeit less significant, of 6.5%. Conversely, during the lockdowns, consumption by household users increased by 0.92%; this increase, combined with the 2.2% tariff increase, made it possible to offset the overall reduction in turnover, of ca. EUR 2 million over the previous year.

The revenues from the aqueduct, sewer and water treatment services are represented net of the 50% rate reduction for public municipal and provincial users for a total of Euro 4,951,593.85 .

"Other Revenues" mainly includes accessory revenues from users, industrial waterworks, those that are obtained for activities performed on behalf of users and third parties, in particular as related to changes to the water and sewerage networks, revenues from analysis and treatment, Punti Acqua, sale of energy and services for no-core activities performed on the free market. The positive variation over the previous year was determined by various factors, such as the new biomethane collection business, the increase in revenues from leachate and biomass treatment services, as well as the adjustments to the provision for risk and charges, which offset the significant drop in accessory revenues from users and the reduction in revenue from sales of electric energy.

24. Revenues for planning and construction activities € 100,187,122 2020 2019 − Revenues for planning and construction activities € 100,187,122 103,822,716

This item refers to the “planning and construction” of assets under concession, which, as envisaged by IFRIC 12, is entered under revenues; the corresponding costs, net of the capitalized costs for internal increases, are entered under the entry “Costs for planning and construction”.

25. Other revenues € 15,576,824 The other operational revenues are composed as follows: 79

2020 2019 − Grants for current expenses (A) € 3,939,973 3,859,273 − Other . Contribution shares in production facilities € 4,453,796 4,990,270 . Other revenues € 3,257,469 3,742,400 . Contingent assets and unsubstantiated liabilities € 1,222,026 5,267,631 . Adjustments/allocations to provisions for liabilities and other € 2,703,560 3,408,495 charges (B) € 11,636,851 17,408,796 Total other revenues (A+B) € 15,576,824 21,268,069

“Contribution shares in production facilities” primarily refers to the incentives for the production of energy from photovoltaic panels and for the production of biomethane, and the incentive rates formerly called Green Certificates. “Other” includes the economic accrual amount of contributions into the plants accounts, already commented on under the entry “ multiannual deferred income” have these notes to the accounts, in addition to the other revenues ( among which receivable lease payments, reimbursements for stamps and other reimbursements),contingent assets and non-existent liabilities in addition to the adjustments made to the provision of liabilities, as already commented in the dedicated section of Liabilities in these notes to the accounts. The overall variation over the previous year was due to reduced contributions for plants, a reduction in contingent assets and unsubstantiated liabilities and adjustments to the provision for risks. Operating costs

26. Consumption of raw materials and consumables € 14,299,576 This entry includes: 2020 2019 − Materials for maintenance net of changes in stock € 7,476,621 7,502,222 − Chemicals € 4,510,946 4,439,206 − Other materials € 2,468,110 2,021,235 − Increases for in-house jobs € (156,101) (151,090) Total € 14,299,576 13,811,573

This item shows a considerable increase over the previous year, primarily accounted for by the purchase of materials to deal with the health emergency due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

27. Costs for leased assets and services € 117,170,420 This entry includes: 2020 2019 - Electricity: (A) € 33,654,448 32,442,432 - Maintenance, works and services & industrial (B) € 61,238,485 55,600,545 - General services: . Services € 11,423,246 11,247,167 . Allocation to Provision for liabilities and other charges € 439,219 204,595 (C) € 11,862,465 11,451,762 - Rentals to local entities (D) € 6,288,399 7,603,831 - Rentals and payable concessions, leases and hires (E) € 4,126,623 3,310,986 Total costs for services and leased assets (A+B+C+D+E) € 117,170,420 110,409,556

Costs for the purchase of electric energy went up, in particular on account of the increase in consumption of energy from external networks and the higher cost per kWh for the purchase of energy generated from renewable sources. As regards the consumption of electricity, bear in mind that the energy recovery technologies operating at the water treatment plants have allowed an 8.79% total savings on consumption 80

The energy balance of the Parent company shows the following data: 2020 2019 MWh % MWh % - Heat . Self-produced by gas engines 10,462 26.48 18,525 49.64 . Self-produced by boilers 0 0 400 1.07 .

The variation in costs for “Maintenance works and industrial services” was due primarily to the costs associated with the health emergency and the intensification of maintenance works correlated with the technical quality and the management of rain water disposal infrastructure, the costs of sludge transport and disposal, the cost of contract work and meter reading services. Conversely, the costs for services rendered by Management Operational Subjects (SOG) decreased and so did the costs for gas, telephone and remote heating services. As a whole, the costs of “Services” were in line with the values recorded the previous year, since the increase in costs incurred for cleaning and sanitising works and smart card insurance deductible costs were offset by the reduction in training, meal vouchers and other personnel expenses, maintenance fees and sponsorships and ads costs. Rentals to local entities recorded a reduction in relation to the update of amortization plans on mortgage contracts between Municipalities and communicated by ATO 3 Torinese. The increase in “lease and rental” costs may be ascribed to the increase in and rental costs and periodic user licence fees, partly attributable to the health emergency.

28. Payroll costs € 62,615,240 The payroll cost composition is the following: 2020 2019 − Wages and salaries € 42,231,865 43,260,240 − Social charges € 13,713,766 14,344,717 − Severance package € 2,757,582 2,817,478 − Pension and similar funds € 59,291 58,284 − Other costs € 3,852,736 3,087,627 Total € 62,615,240 63,568,346

Relative to the accounting period, the average staff was composed as follows: Top Middle Office Apprentices Laborers Total Managers Managers workers Staff as at 12/31/2019 9 33 588 314 47 991 Staff as at 12/31/2020 12 30 610 322 19 993 Change 3 -3 22 8 -28 2

81

Relative to the accounting period, the average staff was composed as follows:

- Top Managers 10 - Middle Managers 35 - Office workers 588 - Laborers 322 - Apprentices 25

This cost shows a decrease of ca. EUR 0.95 million over the previous year, mostly due to savings arising from personnel transfers and a reduction in overtime and holidays accrued during the year and not taken. All this was offset to some extent by the increase arising from the renewal of the national labour agreement (C.C.N.L.) and the implementation of activities correlated with technical quality.

Many temporary employees were hired on a permanent basis so that temporary employment contracts decreased from 46 as at 31 December 2019 to 17 as at 31 December 2020. The relative costs had an overall incidence for the year of EUR 1,995,202.

29.

The item “Territory fees” includes over 15.60 million Euros, the best estimate for the contributions to the Mountain Unions (calculated as indicated by the Territory Authority on revenues for the year 2018) and the operational costs of the Territory Authority and the contributions to the ARERA, depending on the resolutions passed and communications sent.

The item "Other fees" mainly includes fees for association dues, reimbursement of damages and indemnity, and contingent and non-existent assets.

“Allocations to Provisions for Liabilities and Charges” cover liabilities and costs involving taxation, administration and other that are certain or probable but whose exact amount or date of occurrence are not yet determinable at this moment.

The cost of the “Supplemental water bonus” introduced with ARERA resolution 897/2017/R/IDR and ATO resolution 697/2018 shows a decrease over the previous year, due to the smaller number of applications received .

30. Costs for planning and construction activities € 95,777,281 2020 2019 − Costs for planning and construction activities € 95,777,281 99,422,784

31. Amortization, depreciation and write-downs € 87,283,056 The composition of this entry is as follows: 2020 2019 − Depreciation tangible fixed assets € 17,911,455 17,441,913 − Depreciation other intangible fixed assets € 1,771,255 2,052,762 − Depreciation assets under concession € 53,179,731 48,463,115 − Credits write-downs € 12,231,316 11,757,006 − Other provisions € 2,189,299 309,976 Total € 87,283,056 80,024,772

Taking into account the presentation regarding valuation criteria, and the systematicity criterion, for calculating depreciation in the fiscal year the following ordinary rates were used:

Intangible fixed assets: Depending on the estimated technical economic- − Assets under concession (improvement of third-party’s assets and revertible profit life of various types assets) of reference assets As a function of the durations of the ATO3 and − Assets under concession (use rights) SMAT S.p.A. service convention (2033) − Software licenses of use 33.33% − Patents 50.00% − Expansion and development costs 20.00% − Trademarks 10 years As a function of the estimated profit life equivalent − Surface rights to the durations of the Company from the date of the Articles of Association Tangible fixed assets: − Buildings and fences 3.50% − Solar power plants 9.00% − Light constructions 10.00% − Specific plants and filtering plants 8.00% − Metering devices 10.00% − Laboratory and other equipment 10.00% − Furniture and furnishings 12.00% − Office equipments 12.00% • Electronic machinery 20.00% • Hardware 20.00% • Cars 25.00% • Motor vehicles for transport and other vehicles 20.00% • Carbon assets 20.00% • Polarite 11.00% − Tanks 4.00% − Fixed waterworks 2.50% − Sewers 5.00% − Water treatment plants 15.00% − Machinery 12.00% − Leased assets Based on the contract duration

To the Increases of 2020 of tangible fixed assets the rates applied amount to 50% of the ones shown above, representing with the best estimate average rates as a function of the months of use. The increase over 2019 is due to depreciation on the investments made and implemented during the year, including the great dispatching pipelines for the Susa Valley aqueduct, the upgrading of the biogas plant for the production of biomethane, and the reclamation of the Ivrea district wastewater treatment system. The entry also includes the allocations deriving from prudential valuations of the trade receivables. This allocation amounts to approximately 12.23 million Euros, with application of the IFRS 9 principle - Financial instruments and consequence of length of receivables towards users as already referenced in the dedicated item under Assets in this Supplementary Note. The item “Other allocations” reports the depreciation of shares in the partner SAP S.p.A., in consideration of the results of the year. The management depreciated for permanent impairment of value the aforesaid share by Euro 335,000 to align its value to the pro-rata of the Net Equity of SAP S.p.A. This depreciation is confirmed by the impairment test carried out by an independent consultant. 83

Financial income and expenses

32. Financial income € 3,129,613 This entry includes: 2020 2019 − Receivable interest and other proceeds € 3,129,613 5,755,403 Total € 3,129,613 5,755,403

“Receivable interests and other financial proceeds” include receivable interest on current accounts in banks and post offices, interest arrears and other financial proceeds and dividends from other companies. The decrease was mostly due to reduced interest receivable on late payments due to the introduction by ARERA with resolution 311/2019/R/IDR of the new “SII Late Payment Management provisions”. Another factor accounting for the reduction in this entry was the urgent measures adopted by ARERA to support the users during the COVID-19 epidemic.

33. Financial expense € 4,388,086 The entry includes: 2020 2019 − Payable interest and commissions on loans € 4,086,059 4,528,074 − Other receivable interests and charges € 302,027 429,088 Total € 4,388,086 4,957,162

“Interest payable and commissions on loans” includes charges on pre-existing mortgages and the new loan from the European Investment Bank, as well as the relevant share of interest payable on the debenture loan. The entry also includes adjustment of the charges as a function of the amortized cost method. The Other payable interests and charges include, on the other hand, the prudential count of interest on arrears for overdue debts (according to current law) and financial charges deriving from the actuarial valuation of the Severance Fund and other benefits to employees according to IAS 19, and those on leased assets following application of the IFRS 16 principle.

34. Income taxes € 10,237,861 This entry includes: 2020 2019 - IRAP € 2,069,852 2,745,152 - IRES € 9,299,866 13,347,244 - Taxes relative to previous fiscal year € (156,411) (310,319) - Change in payable deferred taxes € 304,226 (191,149) - Change in receivable deferred taxes € (1,279,672) (22,848) Total € 10,237,861 15,568,080

In the scope of current taxes, IRES and IRAP decreased following a decrease in the gross tax amount, as well as in the relative base taxable income. (Reduced) taxes for the previous financial year mostly refer to supplemental corporation income and IRAP tax returns for some previous tax periods for which some deductible costs were found to be greater than previously communicated.

SMA TORINO S.P.A. SUPPLEMENTARY NOTE

Application of IAS/IFRS and its effects European (CE) Regulations no. 1606/2002 of 19 July 2002 introduced the obligation, starting from fiscal year 2005, to apply the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as amended by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and adopted by the European Union (“IFRS” or "International Accounting Principles”) for the drafting of the statements of account of the companies holding capital and/or debt shares quoted in one of the markets regulated by the European Community. On April 13th 2017, SMAT issued a bond loan for a rated amount of a Euro 135 million subscribed by institutional investors and it provided for quotation at the Irish Stock Exchange. In compliance with the aforementioned legislative provisions, SMAT is therefore supposed to draft the consolidated and fiscal year financial statements in compliance with the IFRS starting from the fiscal year closed on 31 December 2016.

This statement of account is therefore drafted in compliance with the IFRS in force at the date of its approval. IFRS means the new International Financial Reporting Standards, the reviewed international accounting principles (“IAS”), all the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”), formerly named Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”), certified and adopted by the European Union.

The Financial Statements schedules and the accounting information reported in the Explanatory Notes comply with the book entries they directly derive from. The IFRS were applied in coherence to all the periods presented in this document.

The statement of account prospectus, as provided for in art. 2423-ter of the Civil Code reports by appropriate comparison the indication of the previous year values. Where required, the data of the previous fiscal year have been suitably adapted in order to ensure the appropriate comparison.

This Financial Statements has been set in the perspective of corporate continuity and on the bases of the contractual criteria of the historical cost, with the exception of some book entries, which are calculated at the fair value, in compliance with the provisions of the International Accounting Principles.

Structure and contents of the financial statements The diagram used for the profit and loss account is in scale with the different items analyzed according to their type. We believe this presentation, which is aligned with international procedure, is the one that best represents the company results. The total Income Statement is presented, as allowed by the revised IAS 1, in a document separate from net equity, and distinguishes between the components that can be reclassified in the Income Statement and those that cannot. The other components of the total Income Statement are highlighted separately also in the schedule of the net equity changes. The diagram of the equity and financial positions highlights the separation between the current and non-current assets and liabilities. The financial reporting is drafted according to the indirect method, as allowed by IAS 7.

The statement of accounts diagrams report separately any costs ans revenues of non-recurrent nature.

The general principle adopted in setting up these financial statements is the cost one, with the exception of the financial assets and liabilities (including the derivative instruments) which are assessed at fair value. The preparation of the Financial Statements has required the use of estimates by the management; the main areas characterized by particularly significant assessments and assumptions, together with those that have remarkable effects on the situations presented, are reported in section "Use of Estimates”. All the accounting prospects of the equity and financial status and of the Income Statement are expressed in Euro unit, whilst the data entered in the explanatory comments are expressed in thousand Euros, except when it is otherwise indicated.

96

Valuation criteria The valuation of the financial sheet items was drawn up based on the general criteria of prudence and accrual, in the prospect of continuation of the business. For the purposes of accounting determinations, priority is given to the economic substance of operations rather than to the legal status. As regards the economic aspect, we specify that the costs and revenues shown include the figures of the end of the year that match the contra items of the Financial Position. In relation to this, profits are included only if realized by the date of closure in the fiscal year, while the risks and losses were taken into account even if known after that date. Tangible fixed assets The tangible assets are identified at the purchase or production cost including the accessory charges, or at the value based on appraisals of the company equity, in case of acquisitions of companies, net to the relevant depreciation fund and to any losses of value. The production cost included the direct and indirect costs for the share that can be reasonably ascribed to the assets (e.g.: personnel costs, transport, customs duties, expenses for the preparation of the area of installation, testing costs, notary and land register expenses) The cost includes any professional fees and - for some goods, the financial charges capitalized up to the coming into service of the good. The cost includes any cost for site reclaiming, on which the tangible asset lays, complies with the provisions of IAS 37.

The expenses for the ordinary maintenance are fully charged to the Income Statement. The costs for improvements, modernization and transformation of incremental nature are computed to the capital assets. The accounting value of the tangible assets is submitted to verification to identify any losses of value, in particular when events or changes of condition identify that the charged value cannot be recovered.

The tangible assets are entered gross to the system revenue grants which are identified in the Income Statement throughout the period of time required to refer them to the relevant costs; they are represented in the equity and financial status by reporting the grant as deferred revenue.

The depreciation starts when the assets enter the production cycle and - for the new acquisitions – it is calculated at 50% of the full rate part, since it is considered as representative of the actual use of the goods. The current assets include the costs relevant to intangible assets whose economic utilization process has not started yet. The tangible assets are systematically depreciated every fiscal year based on economic and technical rate parts that are considered as representative of the residual potential of use of the assets. We report herein under the tables with the depreciation rate parts that have been taken into account for the depreciation of the assets.

As required by IAS 16, the estimated useful lifespan of the tangible assets are reviewed every fiscal year, in order to assess the need of an overhaul. In case it is ascertained that the estimated useful lifespan does not represent as appropriate the future expected benefits, the relevant depreciation plans must be redefined based on the new assumptions. Such changes are reported in a prospect to the Income Statement. During the fiscal year that has been closed, no change was entered under the depreciation plans for any of the categories of tangible assets. The land is not depreciated, Pursuant to accounting principle IFRS 16 Leases, since 1 January 2019, for leases previously classified as operational, the Group recognises - financial liability, equal to the current value of future residual payments on the date of transition, implemented using the applicable incremental borrowing rate on the date of transition for each contract; - usage right equal to the value of financial liability on the date of the transition, net of any accruals and deferrals in the statement of assets and liabilities on the date of closure for this balance sheet.

The profits or losses that derive from the alienation or dismissals of a tangible asset are identified as the difference between the sale revenue and the net accounting value of the asset and they are identified in the Income Statement at the moment the buyer is transferred the risks and benefits connected to the ownership of said asset.

97

Goodwill and other Intangible fixed assets The identifiable controllable intangible assets are identified in the accounting; their cost can be reliably determined provided that such activities generate economic benefits in the future. Such assets are identified at cost value in compliance with the criteria indicated for the tangible assets and - if their useful lifespan is defined - they are depreciated throughout the period of such estimated lifespan. The depreciation starts at the moment the asset is ready to be used or - in any case - it starts producing economic benefits for the enterprise. The current assets include the costs relevant to intangible assets for which the economic utilization process as not started yet.

The intangible assets with defined useful lifespan are systematically depreciated starting from when the asset is available for use throughout the period of expected usefulness. The intangible assets with defined useful lifespan are systematically depreciated starting from when the asset is available for use throughout the period of expected usefulness. The goodwill and the other activities whose useful lifespan is not defined are not subject to systematic depreciation, but they are subject to yearly verifications of recoverability (the so-called impairment test) rung at the level of the individual Cash Generating Unit (CGU) or groups of CGU's whose indefinite useful lifespan assets can be reasonably allocated. The test is described hereinafter in "Reduction of the value of the assets". Any write-down ascribed to goodwill cannot be subject to subsequent return to default values. The goodwill acquired against payment during the release of branches SAC (1 January 2014) and SAP (1 July 2015) is not depreciated, but it is submitted every year to the so-called impairment test.

The intangible assets identified as a result to an aggregation of companies are reported separately from the goodwill, if their fair value is reliably determined. The profits or losses that derive from the alienation of an intangible asset are identified as the difference between the dismissal value and the loading value of the asset and they are identified in the Income Statement at the moment the buyer is transferred the risks and benefits connected to the ownership of said asset. Assets under concession The concessions mainly consist of rights relevant to networks, systems and other equipment relevant to the Integrated Water Service given under license to SMAT Spa and which are functional to the management of such service. Such licenses are classified in a purposely-allocated item according to the interpretation IFRIC 12 – Service Concession Arrangements. As far as the depreciation is concerned, IFRIC provides that the latter is calculated on the basis of what is stated in the agreement and - in particular - in a constant measure for the shorter period of time between the technical and economic lift of the assets given in license and the duration of the license itself, until the takeover value provided for in the license agreement is achieved. In particular, the value of the right of use of the public assets of the waterworks of the City of Turin and of C.I.A.C.T., which are defined in compliance with the expert appraisal of transfer, have been reported in this Financial Statements on the basis of the duration of the relevant agreement deed extended by Ente d’Ambito Torinese n. 3. The depreciation of the improvements made to said assets after the transfer date have been determined based on the estimated economic and technical useful lifespan. The depreciations on the improvements made to the well systems entrusted in direct management to the Company have been determined with reference to the estimated economic and technical useful life of the improvements made.

The extension of the waterworks system of the City of Turin, received under a license agreement and for which it was established in the previous license contract by the City of Turin to AAM Torino S.p.A. (now liquidated) to be devolved free of charge at the end of the license have been depreciated on the basis of the estimated economic and technical life of said extension.

The extension includes the rights on networks, systems and other equipment relevant to the Integrated Water Service and connected to services managed by SMAT S.p.A. The implementation of ’IFRIC 12 has required the application to the same infrastructures - of IAS 11, since, if the licensee builds or upgrades an infrastructure it does not control, the relevant services of building and upgrading developed on behalf of the licensor are considered as actual activities developed against purchase order. Since a large part of the activities is sub- contracted and that the margin of benefit acknowledged in the remuneration of the service rate cannot be identified separately on the building activities that were developed in-house, such infrastructures are identified based on the cost that was actually sustained.

Shareholdings The Investment in subsidiaries and related companies is identified at cost, adjusted in case of losses of value to adapt it to the relevant recoverable value, in compliance with the provisions of IAS 36 – Reduction of the asset value. When the losses no longer exist or reduces, the accounting value is incremented up to the new estimate of the recoverable values, which cannot in any case exceed the original cost. The resuming of the value is entered under the Income Statement. Shares in other companies are valuated at fair value in accordance with the other components in the comprehensive financial statements. Shares held exclusively for the purpose of subsequent alienation are excluded from this approach, and their fair value is inserted in the profits (losses) of the fiscal year. The risk deriving from any losses exceeding accounting value of the shareholding is identified in a purposely-allocated fund insofar the parent company is committed to comply with the legal obligations or in those that are implicit to the subsidiary or in any case to cover its losses.

To ensure the correctness of the recorded value, the shares in partner companies and other companies were subjected to the impairment test. Operationally, for the purpose of this test, the accounted value of reference for these shares was determined and then compared with the recoverable value identified through valuation performed by an external independent expert. In case the share of competence of the Company of the losses in the participating interest exceeds the accounting value of the participating interest, the value of the participating interest is zeroed and the share of any further losses is identified as a liability fund in case the Company is obliged to respond to it.

The dividends received are recognized in the Income Statement once the right to receive the relevant payment is established. In case the related company has distributed dividends, also the following aspects are considered as potential indicators of loss of value: • The reported value of the participating interest exceeds the accounting value in the consolidated balance sheet of the net assets of the related company, including the relevant goodwill; • The dividend exceeds the overall value of the profit and loss account in the period of time the dividend refers to.

The financial assets the Company intends to and can keep until the expiry are reported at the cost represented by the fair value of the initial amount given in exchange, incremented by the transaction cost. As a result of the initial identification, the financial assets are assessed through the criteria of depreciated cost, using the method of the actual interest rate. Non-current financial assets Such category includes those assets that are not represented by derivate instruments and are not quoted in an active market, of which fixed or identifiable payments are expected. Such assets are assessed at the depreciated cost based on the actual interest rate method. If there is objective evidence of the value loss indicators, the value of the assets is reduced in such a measure to result equal to the discounted value of the flows that can be obtained in the future: the losses of value determined through the impairment test are reported in the Income Statement. If the reasons of the previous write-downs no longer stand in subsequent periods, the value of the assets is resumed until it reaches the value that would derive from the application of the depreciated cost if the impairment had not been performed. Such assets are classified as current assets, except the shares whose expiry is longer than 1 month, which are included amongst the noncurrent assets. Inventory The stocks are assessed at the lowest value between the average weighed cost for the movement and the corresponding market value, in order to reflect any conditions of technical obsolescence or low turnover, is reported in the purposely-allocated devaluation fund taken to direct reduction of the stocks to take the cost back of the expected realisable value. Receivables The credits are initially computed at the “fair value" and - then - at the depreciated cost, where it is significant, using the actual interest rate, reduced for losses of value. The losses of value of the credits are reported in the Income Statement when objective evidence is detected that the Group shall not be able to recover such credit. The amount of the write-down is measured as the difference between the accounting value and the current

99

value of the expected future financial flows. The value of the credits is reported in the financial statements net of the credit write-down fund. With reference to the impairment model, the IFRS 9 principle – Financial Instruments: recognition and measurement - of the year 2018 requires that the estimate of the losses on credits is performed on the basis of the expected losses model (instead of on the model of the incurred losses utilized by IAS 39) using supportable information, available without charges or unreasonable efforts that required historical, current and perspective data; The principle foresees that the impairment model is applied to all financial instruments, or to financial activities valued at the amortized cost, to those valued at fair value , to credits derived from rental contracts and commercial credits. The Company has developed a credit analysis model whereby it also takes into account receivables not yet overdue in establishing the provision for bad debts, and determines the write-downs to be applied to the different types of receivables past due. Financial assets and other current assets They are initially reported at the “fair value" (including the costs incurred for the acquisition/emission) at the date of the transaction. Then, they are assessed at the depreciated cost, using the actual interest rate criteria, wherever it is significant and assimilating any losses of value into the Income Statement. Industry information The information relevant to the sectors of activity was arranged in compliance with the provisions of IFRS 8 “Operational sectors”, which include the submittal of the information in compliance with the modes adopted by the management for the operational decision-making. Therefore, the identification of the sectors of operation and the information submitted are defined based on the internal reporting used by the management for the allocation of the resources to the different segments and for the analysis of the relevant performance. A sector of operations is defined by IFRS 8 as a component of a body that : I) undertakes entrepreneurial activities that generate cost and revenue (including the revenues and costs concerning operations with other components of the same body ); II) whose operational results are regularly reviewed at the highest operational decision-making level of the body for the purposes of the adoption of decisions as related to the resources to be allocated to the sectors and of the assessment of the results; III) for which separate information is available in the financial statements. The management has identified only one operational sector, into which all the main services and products supplied to the customers flow, since the activity of the company consists of the management of the Integrated Water Service which is no further broken down at the level of the internal strategic reporting. Cash and cash equivalents The liquidity includes the cash on hand, also in the form of checks, and on demand bank deposits. The equivalent means consist of financial investments with a three-month expiry or lower (as from the date of their purchase), which can be promptly converted into liquidity and with an insignificant risk of variation in their value. Such items are calculated at fair value; profits or losses deriving from any changes in the fair value are reported in the Income Statement. Own shares Own shares are entered as a reduction of the Net Equity. Also the counter value deriving from their release is reported with net equity counterpart, with no computing into the Income Statement. Provisions for liabilities and charges, benefits to the employees The provisions for contingencies and charges concern charges of a determined nature and whose certain or likely existence that – as at the date the Financial Statements are closed - are undetermined as far as the amount or the date of occurrence are concerned. The provisions are identified when: The provisions are identified when: (i) the existence of a current, legal or implicit obligation deriving from a past event, is likely; (ii) the compliance with subject obligation is likely to be burdensome; (iii) the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. The provisions to the funds represent the best estimate of the costs required to face compliance at the date of the Financial Statements (assuming there are sufficient elements to run such estimate) and they are actualized when the effect is significant, and the required information is available. In such cases, the provisions are determined by actualizing the future cash flows at a discount rate before taxes that reflects the current

100

market assessment and take into account the risks connected to the company activity. When the actualization is performed, the increment of the provisions due to time is reported in the financial charges. If the liabilities are due to material activities (e.g.: revamping of sites) the fund is reported in counterpart to the activity it refers to and the identification of the charge in the Income Statement is performed through the depreciation process of the tangible asset the charge refers to. In case of redefinition of the liabilities, the methods provided for by IFRIC 1 are applied. The explanatory notes also illustrate potential liabilities represented by; (i) potential - though not likely - obligations deriving from past events, whose existence shall only be confirmed upon occurrence of one or more uncertain future events that are not under the full control of the Company; (ii) current obligations deriving from past events, whose amount cannot be reliably estimated or whose compliance with is likely not to be onerous.

Benefits to the employees (Severance pay) The liabilities relevant to the defined benefit programs (such as the Severance pay for the amount accrued before 1 January 2017 and the other benefits for the employees) are defined net to any activities at the service of the plan, on the basis of current assumptions and by competences, consistently with the working performance required to obtain such benefits; the assessment of the liabilities is performed with the support of independent actuaries. The value of the current profits and losses as required by JAS 19, is reported into the other components of the total Income Statement. Further to Financial Law no. 296 of 27 December 2006, for companies having more than 50 employees, as related to shares accrued starting from 1 January 2007, the Severance Pay is configured as a plan with defined contributions. Trade payables and other current liabilities Trade payables and other debts are initially reported at fair value, net of the accessory costs of direct computing, and they are then detected at the depreciated cost, where significant, applying the criteria of the actual interest rate.

The item includes current “bound revenues" share determined by Ente d’Ambito Torinese no. 3 with Deliberation no. 483/2013 and reported to fiscal year 2012. Costs and revenues The costs and revenues are recorded net of adjustments, or returns, discounts, allowances and possible variations in estimates, and assessed according to the principles of prudence and competence. In particular, as far as the revenues are concerned: - The revenues for service performance are acknowledged at the date the performance is completed; - Revenues for the sale of water acknowledged and counted at the time of delivery, including the allocation for deliveries made, but not yet invoiced (estimated according to historical analyses determined in relation to past consumption); - the revenues for the sale of products are recognized at the moment of the ownership takeover, which generally corresponds to the delivery or shipment of the goods. The costs are accounted for according to the accrual principle. Grant for Plants The grants for plants are reported in the accounts once there is the justification documentation of the imminent collection by the paying body. These concur to form the result of the fiscal year according to the rules of economic accrual, determined as related to the residual economic and technical lifespan of the assets they refer to. Financial income and expenses Financial proceeds and charges are calculated according to the accrual principle. The dividends of other companies are recorded in the Income Statement in the moment in which the right to receive payment has been established. Income taxes for the year Income tax for the year consists of the sum of current and deferred taxes. Income tax is based on profit for the year before taxes. Profit before taxes differs from the result entered in the Income Statement since it excludes positive and negative components that will be taxable or deductible in other fiscal years and - furthermore - it

101

excludes items that will never be taxable or deductible. "Liabilities for current taxes" are calculated using the rates in force as at the date of the Financial Statements. In determining the income taxes, the Company has taken into due consideration the effects deriving from the last fiscal reform introduced by Law no. 244 of 24 December 2007 and - in particular - the strengthened principle of derivation established by art. 83 of TUIR, which requires the entity applying the international accounting principles to apply, even in exceptions to the provisions of the TUIR, “the criteria of qualification, temporary computing and classification of the Financial Statements according to said accounting principles”.

Deferred taxes are calculated as related to the temporary differences in the taxation and are entered under "Deferred tax liabilities". Deferred tax credits are calculated to the extent in which it is deemed probable the existence, in the fiscal years during which the relevant temporary differences will spill over, of a taxable income at least equal to the amount of the differences which will be annulled. The deferred and anticipated taxes are determined on the basis of the tax rates expected to be applicable in the fiscal year in which the tax credit will be realized or the tax debt will be extinguished, on the basis of the tax rates defined by measures in force or substantially in force as at the reference date of the financial statements. Such changes are entered under either the Income Statement or under net equity, as related to the computing made at the origin of the reference difference. Impairment test The accounting values of the Company assets are assessed at every reference data of the Financial Statements, in order to determine whether there are indications of impairment, in case you proceed to the estimate of the recoverable value of the asset. A loss by value reduction (impairment) is recorded in the Income Statement when the accounting value of an asset or of a unit that generates financial flows exceeds the recoverable value.

The recoverable value of the non-financial activities correspond to the greatest value between their "fair value" net to the sale cost and the value in present use. To determine the value in present use, the estimated future financial flows are actualized using a discount rate that reflects the market assessment of the money value and of the risks related to the type of activity. In case of activities that do not generate financial flows in input, that are widely independent, we proceed by calculating the recoverable value of the unit that generates financial flows to which the asset belongs.

When, subsequently, a loss on assets other than goodwill and other assets of indefinite useful lifespan, no longer exists or is reduced, the accounting value of the asset and of the asset that generates financial flows is increased until the new estimate of the recoverable value is calculated, which cannot exceed the value that would be determined if no loss were detected by impairment. The recovery of an impairment is immediately recorded in the Income Statement. Conversion of assets/liabilities into foreign currency The functional and presentation currency adopted by Smat S.p.A. is Euro. The transactions in foreign currencies are initially identified at the exchange rate at the date of the operation. The assets and liabilities in currency - with the exception of the tangible assets - are reported in the reference exchange rate at the date the fiscal year is closed and the relevant profits and losses on the exchange rate are regularly computed to the Income Statement; the net profit - if any - that might arise is allocated to a purposely-created non-distributable reserve up to the date of use. Use of estimations The drafting of the Financial Statements and relevant Notes to the Accounts requires the administration body to run estimates that influence the values of the balance sheet assets and liabilities and on the information regarding the potential assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements.

The status of generalized economic and financial crisis involves the need to make assumptions as related to the future trend, which can be characterized by uncertainty. Subsequently, we cannot exclude in the future different results from what has been estimated, that could therefore require amendments that cannot be estimated today or forecast at the accounting value of the relevant financial statement items.

Estimates are used in different areas, such as the credit depreciation Fund, the provisions for contingencies and charges, the depreciations, the assessment of the assets regarding shareholding in related companies and 102

subsidiaries the sale revenues, the cost and charges regarding the management of the Integrated Water Service and the income taxes. The estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed by the Group based on the better knowledge of the activity and of other factors that can be reasonably derived from the current circumstances, and the effects of any changes are immediately reflected in the Income Statement.

Other information Corporate agreements outside the Statement of Assets and Liabilities Bear in mind there are no agreements resulting from the financial statements that can have a significant impact on the equity and financial status, or on the economic result of the Company. Amounts expressed in Notes to the Accounts Unless otherwise indicated, the amounts reported in the Notes to the Accounts are expressed in Euro units with rounding up to the upper unit for hundredths equal to or greater than 50 Accounting principles, IFRS amendments and interpretations adopted from 1 January 2020 The following IFRS accounting principles, amendments and interpretations were applied for the fist time by the Company starting as of 1 January 2020:

• On 31 October 2018, IASB published the document “Definition of Material (Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8)”. The document introduced a change in the definition of “relevant” in the IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors principles. This amendment has the objective to render the definition of "relevant" more specific and introduced the concept of “obscured information” alongside the concepts of omitted or erroneous information already present in the two principles in question. The amendment clarifies that information is “obscured” if it was described in a way that generates an effect at first reading in a balance sheet similar to what would be produced if the information was omitted or erroneous. The adoption of this amendment did not produce any effects on the financial statements of the Company.

• On 29 March 2018, IASB published an amendment to the “References to the Conceptual Framework in IFRS Standards”. The amendment is effective for periods starting from 1 January 2020 or later, but advance application is also allowed. The Conceptual Framework defines the fundamental concepts for financial information and guides the Board in developing IFRS standards. The document helps to guarantee that the standards are conceptually aligned and that similar transactions are handled in the same way, to provide useful information to investors, lenders and other credit institutions. The Conceptual Framework supports companies in the development of accounting principles when no IFRS standard is applicable to a specific transaction, and more in general, helps the involved subjects to understand and interpret the standards. The adoption of this amendment did not produce any effects on the financial statements of the Company.

• IASB, on 26 Sepember 2019, published an amendment called “Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7: Interest Rate Benchmark Reform”. The same amendment changed IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments and IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement oltre che l’IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Disclosures. In particular, the amendment changes come requirements for application of hedge accounting, allowing for temporary derogations, in order to mitigate the impact derived from uncertainty about the IBOR reform on cash flows in the period previous to its completion. The amendment also requires companies to provide additional information in the financial statements about their coverages that are directly impacted by uncertainties generated by the reform and to which said derogations are applied. The adoption of this amendment did not produce any effects on the financial statements of the Company.

• On 22 October 2018, IASB published the document “Definition of a Business (Amendments to IFRS 3)”. The document provides clarifications about the definition of business for the correct application of the IFRS 3 principle. In particular, the amendment states that a business usually produces output, the presence of output is not strictly necessary for identifying a business in the presence of a group of integrated activities/processes and goods. Nevertheless, to satisfy the definition of business, an integrated group of 103

activities/processes and goods must include, as a minimum, input and a substantial process that together contribute significantly to the capacity to create an output. For this purpose, IASB replaced the term "capacity to create output" with "capacity to contribute to the creation of output", to clarify that a business can exist also without the presence of all the input and processes necessary for creating output. The amendment also introduced an optional test ("concentration test") to exclude the presence of a business if the paid price is substantially referable to a single activity or group of activities. The changes are applied to all the business combinations and acquisitions of businesses after 1 January 2020, but advance application is also allowed. The adoption of this amendment did not produce any effects on the financial statements of the Company.

• On 28 May 2020, IASB published the amendment called “Covid-19 Related Rent Concessions (Amendment to IFRS 16)”. This amendment provided lessees with an exemption from assessing whether a COVID-19- related rent concession was a lease modification pursuant to IFRS 16. Accordingly, the lessees who avail themselves of this exemption can enter the effects of the reduction in lease payments directly in the income statement on the date the reduction comes into effect. This amendment applies to financial statements for reporting periods beginning 1 June 2020. The adoption of this amendment did not have any effects on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. Accounting principles, amendments and interpretations IFRS and IFRIC authorized by the European Union, not yet mandatory and not adopted in advance by the Group on 31 December 2020 • On 28 May 2020, IASB published the amendment called “Extension of the Temporary Exemption from Applying IFRS 9 (Amendments to IFRS 4)”. This amendment makes it possible to extend the provisional exemption from the application of IFRS 9 until 1 January 2023 for insurance purposes. It will come into effect on 1 January 2021. At present the administrators are assessing possible effects of introduction of this amendment into the financial statements of the company.

• On 27 August 2020, in view of the reform of interbank interest rates such as IBOR, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) published “Interest Rate Benchmark Reform—Phase 2” a document amending the following standards: o IFRS 9 Financial Instruments; o IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement; o IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures; o IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts; o IFRS 16 Leases. Such amendments will come into force on 1 January 2021. At present the directors are assessing the possible effects of applying the amendments to the financial statements of the Company. Accounting principles, IFRS amendments and interpretations not yet certified by the European Union To the date of reference of this document, the competent bodies of the European Union have not yet concluded the certification process required for the adoption of the amendments and principles described hereunder.

• On 18 May 2017, IASB published the principle IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts which is destined to replace IFRS 4 – Insurance Contracts. The objective of the new principle is to guarantee that an entity provides pertinent information that faithfully represents the rights and obligations derived from issued insurance contracts. The IASB has developed a standard for elimination of existing incongruities and weaknesses in accounting policies, providing a single principle-based framework for taking into account all types of insurance contracts, including reinsurance contracts held by the insurer. The new principle also includes requirements for presentation and reporting to improve comparability among the entities in this sector. The new principle measures an insurance contract based on a General Model or a simplified version of the same, called the Premium Allocation Approach (“PAA”). The main characteristics of the General Model are: o the estimates and the hypotheses for future cash flows are always current; o the measurement reflects the temporal value of money; o the estimates foresee extensive use of observable information on the market; 104

o there is current and explicit risk measurement; o the expected profile is differentiated and aggregated into groups of insurance contracts at the moment of initial reading; o the expected profit in the period of contractual coverage takes into account changes deriving from variations in the hypothesis relative to financial flows for each group of contracts.

The PAA approach includes measurement of liabilities for the residual coverage of a group of insurance contracts on the condition that, at the time of initial reading, the entity expects that this liability represents a reasonable approximation of the General Model. Contracts with a period of coverage of one year or less are automatically suitable for the PAA approach. Simplifications derived from the application of the PAA method are not applied to assessment of liability for claims in general, which are measured using the General Model. Nevertheless, it is not necessary to actualize those cash flows if it is expected that the balance to be paid or received is due within one year from the date of the claim. The entity must apply the new principle to issued insurance contracts, including issued reinsurance contracts, held reinsurance contracts and investment contracts with a discretionary participation feature (DPF). The principle applies starting from 1 January 2023, but an advanced application is allowed, only for those companies which apply iFRS 9 - Financial Instruments - and IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Board Members do not expect a significant effect in the balance sheet of the company from the adoption of this principle.

• On 23 January 2020, IASB published an amendment called “Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current”. This document aims to clarify how to classify payables and other short- or long-term liabilities. The changes will be applied starting from 1 January 2023, but advance application is also allowed. The Board Members do not expect a significant effect in the balance sheet of the company from the adoption of this amendment.

• On 14 May 2020, the IASB published the following amendments: o Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations: the amendment will update the reference contained in IFRS 3 to the Conceptual Framework in the revised version, without this entailing changes to the provisions set out in IFRS 3. o Amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment: it will no longer be possible to detract from the cost of tangible assets the amount obtained on disposal of assets during the testing stage of the asset itself. Such revenues from disposal and the relative costs will therefore be recorded in the income statement. o Amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets: the amendment makes it clear that the charges that may arise from a contract must be estimated by taking into account all the costs directly attributable to the contract. Accordingly, besides incremental costs (e.g., the cost of direct materials processed), the evaluation of the possible charges associated with a contract must also take into account all the costs that they company cannot avoid on account of having signed the contract (e.g., the proportions of personnel cost and depreciation of the machinery used to perform the contract). o Annual Improvements 2018-2020: amendments were made to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, and IAS 41 Agriculture, and to the Illustrative Examples of IFRS 16 Leases. All the foregoing amendments will come into effect on 1 January 2022. The Board Members do not expect a significant effect in the balance sheet of the company from the adoption of these amendments.

For detailed transactions in the category “Assets under concession” refer to the section of reference.

2. Goodwill € 5,928,005 The value of the goodwill as at 31 December 2020 can be ascribed to the acquisition of the SAC business unit (1 January 2014), amounting to EUR 96,000 and the SAP S.p.A. business unit (1 July 2015) regarding the Municipalities of ATO 3 Torinese amounting to EUR 5,832,005, entered under the intangible assets with the approval of the Board of Auditors.

Starting on 1 Januuary 2015, through the adoption of the international accounting principles, the goodwill is no longer subject to amortisation, but submitted to impairment test, in compliance with the provisions of IAS 36.

109

The goodwill was allocated to the reference Cash Generating Unit (CGU) in compliance with IAS 36 and as such it is not subject to amortization, but to verification by impairment on a yearly basis, or more frequently, should an event or circumstances arise that may lead to the assumption of a value reduction. The impairment test is developed through the comparison between the net accounting value and the recoverable value of the CGU the goodwill was allocated to, determined with reference to the greatest value between the fair value net of the costs of sale and the value of use of the CGU. The value used was determined by applying the synthetic income method, actualizing operating income net of taxes (Net operating profit after tax: Nopat) relative to the CGU in the Economic Plan 2015-2033, approved by the Ordinary Shareholder Meeting on 29.06.2015. The Economic and Financial Plan also highlights the results expected for the whole duration of the license and - even though it is drafted on a time horizon longer than 5 years - it constitutes the representative document to identify the prospect cash flows Furthermore, since the license has a pre-defined useful life, the "terminal value" has not been defined.

The discount value utilized is represented by the WACC identified with reference to the sector the identified CGU operates within. The discount rate I(WACC) utilized reflects the market assessments on the cost of money and the specific risks of the sector of activities and of the reference geographic area. In particular, in determining the actualization rate, the following parameters have been utilized: • Risk-free rate at 1.09%; • Risk premiums at 6.20% • Beta for the “water utilities” sector at 0.43; • Specific risk premiums at 3.47%; • Cost of debt at 2.69%. The discount rate used therefore was the weighted average cost of capital, estimated at 4.56%

With reference to fiscal years 2019 and 2020 , the impairment tests run do not show any value reductions in the goodwill entered. The results of the impairment tests have been submitted to a sensitivity analysis aimed at verifying their variability with the change of the main assumptions at the basis of the estimate. To this purpose, two different scenarios have been assumed as at 31 December 2020. • scenario 1: actualization rate = 6.76%, with a decrement of approx. 220 base points with respect to the base scenario; • scenario 2: actualization rate = 5.66%, with a decrement of approx. 110 base points with respect to the base scenario;

The sensitivity analysis shows little sensitivity of the test with the change of assumptions at the basis of the estimate. More precisely, neither of the scenarios above would determine a loss of value of the goodwill.

3. Other Intangible assets € 3,674,642 The intangible assets are entered amongst the statement of account assets, since they are part of the assets allocated to be durably used. No value adjustment has been applied to the cost of acquisition or production of the intangible assets. “Concessions, licenses, trademarks and similar rights” includes the cost incurred for the acquisition of software licenses depreciated in three fiscal years, and for the deposit of trademarks, which are depreciated in ten fiscal years. The value entered under “Assets under construction and payments on account” is based on studies currently underway. Furthermore, since 2014, the entry “Other” also includes the "Surface right" regarding the parking places at the “Palazzo" car park.

In general terms, the statement of account values do not significantly exceed the ones that correspond to the fractions of Net Equity reported in the statements of account to 31 December 2020 of the related companies. The shareholding in Acque Potabili S.p.A. has been assessed to Euro 7.8 million as related to the fraction of Net Equity from Parent Company SMAT S.p.A., as already described in detail in the Management Report.

Pursuant to art. 2501-quarter(2) of the Italian Civil Code, on 13 July 2020, it was resolved to merge by incorporation subsidiary Acquedotto Monferrato S.p.A. into its sole owner, company Acque Potabili S.p.A., based on a project registered, for both companies, at the Turin Trade Register on 2 March 2020. For civil code purposes the merger went into effect on 13 November 2020 and for accounting and tax purposes on 1 January 2020. For more details, see the Management Report.

Notes to the entries of the Income Statement

Revenues

23. Revenues € 318,173,677

Revenues are made up as follows: 2020 2019 − Aqueduct service € 131,125,945 135,447,791 − Sewer service € 44,772,146 43,876,731 − Water treatment service € 127,844,350 126,872,585 − Hydrants € 4,271,860 4,162,994 − Other revenues € 10,159,376 9,756,668 Total € 318,173,677 320,116,769

All the revenues inherent to corporate business were obtained in the reference territory ATO 3 Torinese, as determined by the Piemonte Regional Law no. 13 of 01/20/1997 and include the best estimate of revenues accrued in the fiscal year for aqueduct, sewers, water treatment services and hydrants provided in the 289 Municipalities acquired by effect of the reunification process. They arise from the application of the tariff differentiation scheme as received from the Turin Local Regulator in late December 2020 following the approval of the amendments to the Tariff Schedule for 2020 – 2023, which reflects the regulations for the new tariff period MTI-3 approved with resolution 774 on 10 December 2020. In 2020 tariffs went up by 2.2% over the previous year, back in line with 2018 values.

During the period considered, an analysis of aqueduct volumes reveals that, following the closures of businesses imposed by the restrictions due to the COVID epidemic, consumption by craftsmanship, commercial and industrial users declined by more than 14% over 2019. Public use correlated users also recorded a reduction in consumption, albeit less significant, of 6.5%. Conversely, during the lockdowns, consumption by household users increased by 0.92%; this increase, combined with the 2.2% tariff increase, made it possible to offset the overall reduction in turnover, of ca. EUR 2 million over the previous year.

The revenues from the aqueduct, sewer and water treatment services are represented net of the 50% tariff reduction for public municipal and provincial users for a total of Euro 4,951,593.85 .

"Other Revenues" mainly includes accessory revenues from users, industrial waterworks, revenue from works performed on behalf of users and third parties, in particular as related to changes to water and sewer networks, revenues from leachate and biomass analyses and treatment services, Punti Acqua, sales of energy and services for non-core activities on the free market, and adjustments to provisions. The positive variation over the previous year was determined by various factors, such as the new biomethane collection business, the increase in revenues from leachate and biomass treatment services, as well as adjustments to the provision for risk and charges, which offset the significant drop in accessory revenues from users and the reduction in revenue from sales of electric energy.

24. Revenues for planning and construction activities € 100,187,122 2020 2019 − Revenues for planning and construction activities € 100,187,122 103,822,716

This item refers to the “planning and construction” of assets under concession, which, as envisaged by IFRIC 12, is entered under revenues; the corresponding costs, net of the capitalized costs for internal increases, are entered under the entry “Costs for planning and construction”.

126

25. Other revenues € 13,684,783 The other operational revenues are composed as follows: 2020 2019 − Grants for current expenses (A) € 3,938,409 3,858,137 − Others 0 . Contribution shares in production € 4,453,595 4,990,270 facilities . Other revenues € 1,385,046 1,442,902 . Contingent assets and unsubstantiated liabilities € 1,204,173 5,314,106 . Adjustment to provisions for liabilities and other € 2,703,560 3,408,495 charges (B) € 9,746,374 15,155,773 Total other revenues (A+B) € 13,684,783 19,013,910

“Contribution shares in production facilities” primarily refers to the incentives for the production of energy from photovoltaic panels and for the production of biomethane, and the incentive rates formerly called Green Certificates. “Others” includes the economic accrual amount of contributions into the plants accounts, already commented on under the entry “ multiannual deferred income” have these notes to the accounts, in addition to the other revenues ( among which receivable lease payments, reimbursements for stamps and other reimbursements),contingent assets and non-existent liabilities in addition to the adjustments made to the provision of liabilities, as already commented in the dedicated section of Liabilities in these notes to the accounts. The overall variation over the previous year was due to reduced contributions for plants, a reduction in contingent assets and unsubstantiated liabilities and adjustments to the provision for risks.

Operating costs

26.

This item shows a considerable increase over the previous year, primarily accounted for by the purchase of materials to deal with the health emergency due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

27. Costs for leased assets and services € 117,656,595 This entry includes: 2020 2019 • Electricity: (A) € 33,429,970 32,223,051 • Maintenance, works and services & industrial (B) € 62,411,444 56,695,734 • General services: .

127

Costs for the purchase of electric energy went up, in particular on account of the increase in consumption of energy from external networks and the higher cost per kWh for the purchase of energy generated from renewable sources. As regards the consumption of electricity, bear in mind that the energy recovery technologies operating at the water treatment plants have allowed an 8.79% total savings on consumption

The energy balance is demonstrated as follows: 2020 2019 MWh % MWh % - Heat . Self-produced by gas engines 10,462 26.48 18,525 49.64 . Self-produced by boilers 0 0 400 1.07 .

The variation in costs of “Maintenance works and industrial services” was due primarily to the costs associated with the health emergency and the intensification of maintenance works correlated with the technical quality and the management of rain water disposal infrastructure, the costs of sludge transport and disposal, the cost of contract work and meter reading services. Conversely, costs for services rendered by Management Operational Subjects (SOG) decreased and so did the costs for gas, telephone and remote heating services. As a whole, the costs of “Services” were in line with the values recorded the previous year, since the increase in costs incurred for cleaning and sanitising operations and smart card insurance deductible costs were offset by the reduction in training, meal vouchers and other personnel expenses, in maintenance fees and sponsorships and ads expenditure. Rentals to local entities recorded a reduction in relation to the update of amortization plans on mortgage contracts between Municipalities and communicated by ATO 3 Torinese. The increase in “Lease and rental” costs may be ascribed to the increase in vehicle hire and rental costs and periodic user licence fees, partly attributable to the health emergency.

28. Payroll costs € 60,700,787 The payroll cost composition is the following: 2020 2019 − Wages and salaries € 40,575,834 41,588,883 − Social charges € 13,156,320 13,779,724 − Severance package € 2,640,494 2,705,303 − Pension and similar funds € 57,276 56,268 − Other costs € 4,270,863 3,421,205 Total € 60,700,787 61,551,383

Relative to the accounting period, the average staff was composed as follows: - Top Managers 10 - Middle Managers 30 - Office workers 562 - Laborers 318 - Apprentices 25

This cost shows a decrease of ca. EUR 0.85 million over the previous year, mostly due to savings arising from personnel transfers and a reduction in overtime and holidays accrued during the year and not taken. All this was offset to some extent by the increase arising from the renewal of the national labour agreement (C.C.N.L.) and the implementation of activities correlated with technical quality.

Total Staff as at 12/31/2019 955 Terminations -57 Hires 60 Staff as at 12/31/2020 958

Many temporary employees were hired on a permanent basis so that temporary employment contracts decreased from 46 as at 31 December 2019 to 17 as at 31 December 2020.

Taking into account the presentation regarding valuation criteria, and the systematicity criterion, for calculating depreciation in the fiscal year the following ordinary rates were used:

Intangible fixed assets: Depending on the estimated technical economic- − Assets under concession (improvement of third-party’s assets and revertible profit life of various types assets) of reference assets Based on the duration of the service − Assets under concession (use rights) agreement ATO 3 and SMAT S.p.A. (2033) − Software licenses of use 33.33% − Patents 50.00% − Expansion and development costs 20.00% − Trademarks 10 years As a function of the estimated profit life equivalent − Surface rights to the durations of the Company from the date of the Articles of Association Tangible fixed assets: − Buildings and fences 3.50% − Solar power plants 9.00% − Light constructions 10.00% − Specific plants and filtering plants 8.00% − Metering devices 10.00% − Laboratory and other equipment 10.00% − Furniture and furnishings 12.00% − Office equipments 12.00% • Electronic machinery 20.00% • Hardware 20.00% • Cars 25.00% • Motor vehicles for transport and other vehicles 20.00% • Carbon assets 20.00% • Polarite 11.00% − Tanks 4.00% − Fixed waterworks 2.50% − Sewers 5.00% − Water treatment plants 15.00% − Machinery 12.00% − Leased assets Based on the contract duration

To the Increases of 2020 of tangible fixed assets the rates applied amount to 50% of the ones shown above, representing with the best estimate average rates as a function of the months of use.

130

The increase over 2019 is due to depreciation on the investments made and implemented during the year, including the great dispatching pipelines for the Susa Valley aqueduct, the upgrading of the biogas plant for the production of biomethane, and the reclamation of the Ivrea district wastewater treatment system.

The entry also includes the allocations deriving from prudential valuations of the trade receivables. This allocation amounts to approximately 12.23 million Euros, with application of the IFRS 9 principle - Financial instruments and consequence of length of receivables towards users as already referenced in the dedicated item under Assets in this Supplementary Note. The item “Other allocations” reports the depreciation of shares in the partner SAP S.p.A., in consideration of the results of the year.

Unlike the previous year, “Receivables from correlated parties” consisted soling of interest on cash pooling with associate company Risorse Idriche. The decrease is due to fewer dividends received. “Receivable interests and other financial proceeds” include receivable interest on current accounts in banks and post offices, interest arrears and other financial proceeds and dividends from other companies. The decrease was mostly due to reduced interest receivable on late payments due to the introduction by ARERA with resolution 311/2019/R/IDR of the new “SII Late Payment Management provisions”. Another factor accounting for the reduction in this entry was the urgent measures adopted by ARERA to support the users during the COVID-19 epidemic.

33. Financial expense € 4,375,578 This entry includes: 2020 2019 − Payable interest and commissions on loans € 4,086,059 4,528,074 − Other receivable interests and charges € 289,519 407,699 Total € 4,375,578 4,935,773

“Interest payable and commissions on loans” includes charges on pre-existing mortgages and the new loan from the European Investment Bank, as well as the relevant share of interest payable on the debenture loan. The entry also includes adjustment of the charges as a function of the amortized cost method. The Other payable interests and charges include, on the other hand, the prudential count of interest on arrears for overdue debts (according to current law) and financial charges deriving from the actuarial valuation of the Severance Fund and other benefits to employees according to IAS 19, and those on leased assets following application of the IFRS 16 principle.

34. Taxes This entry includes: 2020 2019 - IRAP € 2,065,167 2,734,599 - IRES € 9,285,275 13,306,601 - Taxes relative to previous fiscal year € (153,215) (299,094) - Change in payable deferred taxes € 304,226 (22,848) - Change in receivable deferred taxes € (1,295,336) (216,565) Total € 10,206,117 15,502,693

131

In the scope of current taxes, IRES and IRAP decreased following a decrease in the gross tax amount, as well as in the relative base taxable income. (Reduced) taxes for the previous financial year mostly refer to supplemental corporation income and IRAP tax returns for some previous tax periods for which some deductible costs were found to be greater than previously communicated.

The reconciliation between the ordinary rate and the actual rate is shown in the following schedule:

2020 2019 - Result before taxes € 33,890,448 55,604,922 - Applicable theoretical rate % 24 24 - Theoretical IRES € 8,133,708 13,345,181

Effects of the variations in increase (diminution) versus the theoretical rates

- IRES on nondeductible costs € 4,253,815 3,835,325 - IRES on other permanet differences € (2,484,805) (3,871,762) - Total effect of changes (increase/decrease) in revenue € 1,769,010 (36,437) - IRES detraction (2,143) (2,143) - Current IRES (theoretical IRES + IRES on revenue changes) € 9,900,575 13,306,601 - Deferred IRES € (937,885) (532,944) - Current + deferred IRES (total actual) € 8,962,690 12,773,656 Actual rates % 26.45 22.97

In consideration of the special nature of the correlated taxable basis, no consideration was given to IRAP as for the purposes of the previous table, which refers only to IRES.

Proposals regarding the deliberations on SMAT S.p.A. fiscal year financial statements as at 31 December 2020

Dear Shareholders,

Having ascertained that there are no amounts still to be depreciated as related to the costs for installations, revamping, research and development or advertising, and that the regulations of art. 2426 of the Italian Civil code, paragraph 5, as related to what is shown above, we propose you to approve the Financial Statements of SMAT S.p.A. for fiscal year 2020, which closed with a net profit of EUR 23,684,331.18 as a whole and in the different items.

Since the Meeting of Shareholders of 6 May 2014 had acknowledged Agreement pursuant to art. 30 TUEL approved by the majority of the Shareholders both in numerical and share terms, and that art. 2 of the same agreement involves the following allocation of the profit obtained:

• 5% to the Legal reserve and the remaining • 80% to the Reserve bound to the implementation of the Economic and Financial Plan; • 20% to dividends to the Shareholders to promote environmental protection measures.

Based on the aforesaid, the Shareholders Meeting proposes the following distribution of the net fiscal year profits for the fiscal year:

• 5% to the Legal reserve amounting to € 1,184,216.56; and the remaining • 80% to the Reserve bound to the implementation of the Economic and Financial Plan amounting to € 18,000,091,70; • 20% for an total amount of € 4,500,022.92 corresponding to a unit dividend rounded off to € 0.92 for each of the 4,860,000 ordinary shares that have right to it, excluded the own shares held by SMAT S.p.A., and therefore a total rounded up dividend of € 4,471,200.00. Consequently, the amount of the net residual profit to be brought forward results to be € 28,822.92.

Without prejudice to what has been described above and taking into account the legal obligations, the Board of Directors are leaves to the Assembly the decisions as related to the destination of the operating profit of fiscal year 2020

Shareholders of the Società Metropolitana Acque Torino S.p.A., the Consolidated Financial Statement on 31 December 2020 of SMAT S.p.A. and its subsidiaries was approved by the Board of Directors, together with the fiscal year financial statement, in an appropriate time-frame for controls by us, including on the Assets and Liabilities, Economic Statement, Supplementary Note and Cash-Flow Statement, accompanied by the Management Report (the latter drafted in a single copy for the same purposes according to the law as the fiscal year financial statement) and resulting in profit of Euro 23,787,649 (of which Euro 23,757,505 attributed to the parent company and Euro 30,144 to third parties). The consolidated financial statement was compiled in accordance with International Accounting Principles (IFRS). The task of validating conformity of the Consolidated Financial Statement with legal provisions and its correspondence with the results of the entries in accounting ledgers and consolidation is attributed to the Auditing Firm. Therefore, this Board of Auditors is not tasked with the analytical control of the contents of the financial statement. It therefore monitored the general framework of the same, its general conformity to the law as regards its form and structure, and in this regard there are no particular comments to report. The controls performed by the auditing firm Deloitte & Touche S.p.A. ascertained that the values expressed in the financial statement correspond to those in the accounting ledgers of Smat S.p.A., in the fiscal year financial statements of the Subsidiaries and relative information communicated by them. Our monitoring activities were performed in compliance with the behavioural standards of the Board of Auditors issued by the National Council of Accountants and Accounting Experts, and in particular concerned: - The validation of the existence and adequacy in the organisational structure of Smat S.p.A. of a department dedicated to relations with subsidiaries; - Obtaining information about the activities undertaken by subsidiaries and significant economic-financial and asset transactions in the scope of group relations through information received from the Board members of Smat S.p.A. Based on the monitoring activities on the Consolidated Financial Statement, it is confirmed that:

152

- The determination of the area of consolidation, the selection of consolidation principles and procedures adopted reflect the provisions set forth by law; - The Legal standards governing the form and framework of the Financial Statement and Management Report were respected; - The Management Report adequately portrays the economic situation, assets and liabilities, and financial situation of the group, as well as the ongoing management progress in 2020, also providing an adequate description of the relationships between the companies that are part of the group and any facts that occurred after the conclusion of the fiscal year; - The Consolidated Financial Statement corresponds to the facts and information that this Board had at its disposition with regard to the performance of its monitoring duties and its powers of control and inspection. The report by the Audit Firm, prepared in accordance with Legislative Decree no. 39/2010, attests that the Consolidated Financial Statement was drafted with clarity and truthfully represents the financial assets and liabilities of the group, as well as the economic result of the fiscal year concluded on 31 December 2020. Therefore, in light of the aforesaid and the information provided by the Audit Firm and its judgement without reserve, as well as the information acquired by the Board of Directors, the Board of Auditors has no comment to report on the consolidated financial statement of the group Smat S.p.A.

REPORT BY BOARD OF AUDITORS TO THE SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING PURSUANT TO ART. 2429. SECTION 2 OF THE ITALIAN CIVIL CODE

Shareholders of the Società Metropolitana Acque Torino S.p.A., over the course of the fiscal year ended 31 December 2020, our activities were inspired by the applicable legal provisions and the standards of behaviour for the Board of Auditors as issued by the National Council of Chartered Accountants and Accounting Experts.

Monitoring and Control activities We monitored observance of the law and articles of association and respect for correct administrative principles. We participated in Shareholders Meetings and Board Meetings, based on the obtained information, we did not detect any violations of the law and the articles of association, nor any manifestly imprudent, risky actions, in potential conflict of interest or that could compromise the integrity of corporate assets. We acquired information about the progress of corporate business from the Board Members during the Board of Directors Meetings. We acquired information about the general progress of management and its foreseeable developments, as well as significant transactions, for their dimensions or characteristics, made by the company and its subsidiaries from the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the CEO. Based on the acquired information, we have no significant observations to report. We met with the Accounting Firm Deloitte & Touche S.p.A. several times over the course of the year, and no relevant facts, data or information emerged that should be highlighted in this report, with reference to the activities carried out. We informed the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the CEO of the result of the legal review and we transmitted the additional report pursuant to art. 11 of European Regulation 537/2014 to the Board of Directors. We met with the Board of Auditors of the subsidiary companies (Risorse Idriche SpA di Torino, Aida Ambiente Srl di Pianezza) and the Auditors and auditing firm of the company SAP S.p.A. and no relevant facts, data and information emerged that should be highlighted in this report. We did not detect nor did we receive any indications from the Board of Directors, the management, the auditing firm, corporate control bodies and auditing boards of subsidiary companies about any reports relative to

154

the existence of atypical and/or unusual transactions made with third parties or parties correlated with the Company. Transactions with correlated parties, as illustrated by the Board Members in the Supplementary Note, fall within normal operations and took place in normal market conditions and were implemented based on rules that ensure transparency and substantial and procedural correctness. We met with the person responsible for the internal control system and no relevant facts, data and information emerged that should be highlighted in this report. We met with the Supervisory Entity and reviewed the reports issued by the same, and no critical points emerged in respect to the correct implementation of the organisational model that should be highlighted in this report. It should also be noted that the Management and Control Organisational Model pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/2001 is being updated in the light of changes to the regulations made in the course of 2020, to include the offence of influence peddling and tax crime prevention requirements; other changes to the Model reflect the implementation of the company’s integrated communication project and the extraordinary measures put in place in connection with the public health emergency, with particular regard to the Special Parts on safety and environmental concerns. We met with the person responsible for the prevention of corruption and guarantee of transparency and we reviewed the relative reports: no information was reported to the Board that should be highlighted in this report. We acquired knowledge about and monitored, as far as our competence is concerned, the adequacy and functioning of the organisational framework of the company, also through collection of data from the department heads and the accounting firm. With regard to this, we note that in 2020, 60 people were hired. We acquired knowledge about and monitored, as far as our competence is concerned, the adequacy and functioning of the administrative-accounting system, as well as on the reliability of the same to correctly represent facts related to management, through obtaining information from the department heads, the person responsible for legal accounting audits and examination of corporate documentation, and with regard to this we do not have any particular comments. There was no need to intervene by omission by the Board of Directors in accordance with art. 2406 of the Civil Code. No charges were made in accordance with art. 2409, section 7 of the Civil Code. No punishable facts or omissions emerged, nor any complaints or charges pursuant to art. 2408 of the Civil Code. Over the course of the fiscal year the Board of Auditors did not issue any official opinions required by the law

155

Over the course of monitoring activities, as described above, no other significant facts emerged that require mention in this report.

Monitoring activities pursuant to Legislative Decree no. 39/2010, as amended by Legislative Decree 135/2016. We monitored in the role of "Committee for internal control and accounting review": - On the financial reporting process - On the efficacy of the internal control systems, internal review systems and risk management; - On the legal audit on the fiscal year financial statements and the consolidated financial statements; - On the independence of the legal accounting firm. We examined the plan for auditing, as well as the relative reports drafted by Deloitte & Touche SpA, whose activities are integrated into the overall framework of controls established by regulatory standards governing financial reporting processes. Said reports, issued in accordance with art. 14 of Legislative Decree no. 39/2010, demonstrate that the fiscal year financial statement was drafted based on the international IAS/IFRS accounting principles effective on 31 December 2020, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and adopted by the European Union. The statement was drafted with clarity and truthfully represents the financial assets and liabilities of the company, as well as the economic result of the fiscal year concluded on 31 December 2020. It should be noted that on 29 July 2019 the Board of Directors adopted the Consolidated Regulations for governing the right of access to administrative documents and the right of access to documents, data and information, published on the corporate website and distributed to employees with a dedicated internal Service Order. No reports were received by the Anti-Corruption and Transparency Committee and no events that could be construed as reflecting corruption phenomena and/or behaviours occurred during the year.

Assignment of additional roles to the auditing firm and other correlated subjects and relative costs In the course of 2020, no tasks other than the auditing of the accounts were entrusted to the auditing firm. We obtained evidence of accounting by the Company of the following compensation acknowledged to Deloitte & Touche SpA SpA, for the following roles: - Accounting Audit of the Parent Company, Audit of financial statements for SMAT and Territories, Sworn services for Municipal charges/credits, under-signing of tax statements: Euro 66,000; - Accounting Audit on subsidiaries: Euro 20,000; for a Total of Euro 86,000 (net of VAT and expenses).

Financial Statement This Board of Auditors is not tasked with the analytical control of the contents of the financial statement. It therefore monitored the general framework of the same, its general conformity to the law as regards its form and structure, and in this regard there are no particular comments to report. The financial statement project for the fiscal year concluded on 31/12/2020 was made available in accordance with the terms set forth in art. 2429 of the Civil Code. We confirmed observance of legal standards inherent to the preparation of the management report and in this regard we have no particular comments to report. As far as our knowledge is concerned, the Board Members, in relation to the financial statement, referred to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which were applied correctly. In accordance with art. 2426, no. 6, of the Civil Code, we expressed a favourable opinion of the registration in the assets and liabilities of an amount of Euro 5,928,005, for the acquisition of branches of the companies Acque Ciriacesi SrI (on 01.01.2014) and Società Acque Potabili SpA. (on 01.07.2015). In observance of the adopted accounting principles (IFRS), the value was determined by an external subject, specifically assigned by your company, which adopted the "fair value" criteria. Impairment tests performed did not demonstrate reduced value in the registered items.
