Axpo defies energy market turmoil to post good half-year results

Axpo has proven to be robust against a backdrop of unprecedented turmoil on energy markets. In the first half of fiscal 2021/22, the company posted adjusted EBIT of CHF 1,094 million (prior year: CHF 515 million) and a result for the period of CHF 513 million (prior year: CHF 781 million). The extremely sharp rise in energy prices placed was also challenging from a liquidity management perspective. Collateral payments for hedging Swiss electricity production have temporarily tied up a large amount of cash, but Axpo was able to cover this shortfall thanks to forward-looking liquidity management and good access to the capital market. Axpo’s continued expansion in renewables and status as leader in marketing electricity production capacity and in energy trading make it a significant contributor to decarbonisation and energy supply security.
