Acea raises full-year guidance after solid third-quarter results

Investing.com -- Acea reported a positive third quarter with EBITDA reaching €353 million, representing a year-over-year increase of approximately 2% on pro-forma figures.

The company recorded a €109 million capital gain from selling its High Voltage grid to Terna. For the first nine months of 2025, Acea’s recurring net profit reached €301 million, showing an increase of approximately 8% compared to the same period last year.

Following these results, Acea’s management upgraded its full-year guidance, which had already been increased after first-half results. The company now expects EBITDA growth of 8-10%, up from the previous forecast of 6-8%, compared to the 2024 restated figure of €1,276 million.

This new guidance translates to approximately €1,390 million at the mid-point, representing a 9% year-over-year increase. The company also projects capital expenditures of €1.2 billion net of grants and a pro forma net debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.4-3.5x.

Management indicated they will likely update the company’s plan in 2026.
