Improved 2020 financial outlook²

• Increase in the anticipated EBITDA margin to between 23% and 26% (vs. between 21% and 24%)

The Orano Board of Directors met yesterday and approved the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. When asked about the results, Philippe Knoche, Chief Executive Officer, stated:

“Orano delivered solid results in 2019 with a return to revenue growth, an increase in the EBITDA supported by successful implementation of its performance plan and a positive net cash flow after a voluntary contribution enabling a return to 100% coverage of its dismantling liabilities. By improving its financial outlook for 2020, the Group is confirming its role as a major player in the low carbon nuclear energy industry, which has its part to play in the fight against climate change.”

The financial indicators are defined in the financial glossary in Appendix 2 - Definitions.

Backlog

The order intake for the year 2019 stood at 1.9 billion euros, mainly related to contracts signed with Asian and American customers. This performance also served to replenish the order backlog in short-cycle services activities. Conversely, the long-term backlog is subject to less regular renewal depending on market conditions.

Orano had a backlog of 29.9 billion euros as of December 31, 2019, down slightly compared with December 31, 2018 (31.8 billion euros). The backlog represents close to eight years of revenue.

Revenue

Orano’s revenue came to 3,787 million euros in 2019, an increase of +4.5% compared with 2018 (3,623 million euros; +3.7% like-for-like), driven by good momentum in the Mining and Front End businesses.

The share of revenue from international customers was 52% in 2019. The percentage of revenue generated with Asian customers amounted to 26% over the year, up slightly compared with 2018.

• Mining revenue totaled 1,280 million euros, an increase of 13.8% compared with 2018 (+12.9% like-for-like). The increase was largely in line with the backlog flow structure.

• Front End revenue totaled 902 million euros, an increase of 6.5% compared with 2018 (+6.0% like-for-like). The increase was attributable chiefly to more favorable average selling prices for the conversion activities (chemicals) over the period.

• Back End revenue, which includes Recycling, Logistics, Dismantling & Services, and Projects, totaled 1,588 million euros, down 3.1% compared with 2018 (-3.9% like-for-like). The decline mainly reflected a reduction in business in Logistics, particularly in the United States, partially offset by Dismantling & Services.

• “Corporate and other operations” revenue, consisting primarily of Orano Med, amounted to 17.6 million euros, compared with 14.4 million euros in December 31, 2018.

Operating income

Orano’s operating income totaled 468 million euros, a decline of 49 million euros compared with end-2018. This decline breaks down by business line as follows:

• An increase of 53 million euros in operating income from Mining operations, which totaled 446 million euros, up from 393 million euros in 2018. Operating income reflects the anticipated increase in sales volumes in accordance with the flow of the backlog, backed up by the performance plan rolled out on the mining sites.

• An increase of 135 million euros in operating income from Front End operations, which totaled 191 million euros, up from 56 million euros in 2018. The firming of conversion prices over the period and the improvement in the enrichment market outlook boosted operating income, through sales for the year on the one hand and changes in previously made provisions on onerous contracts on the other hand.

• A decline of 262 million euros in the Back End operation, which recorded an operating loss of 122 million euros over the period, compared with a profit of 140 million euros in 2018. This is attributable to the contribution to income from a large export contract in Recycling and a one-off provision reversal following the renegotiation of the health and pensions agreement in 2018. Moreover, in 2019, operational difficulties in Logistics in the United States and at the Melox plant in Recycling were largely offset by the increase in processing volumes at the La Hague plant in Recycling.

• An improvement of 27 million euros in the operating income of the “Corporate and other operations” to a loss of 46 million euros, compared with a loss of 73 million euros in 2018.
  The improvement is attributable to a reversal of an unused provision that had become moot.

Adjusted net income attributable to owners of the parent

The significant volatility in net financial income resulting from the application of IFRS 9 from January 1, 2018 led the group to implement a new performance indicator at the end of 2018. This new alternative performance indicator (adjusted net income attributable to owners of the parent) reflects Orano’s industrial performance independently of the impact of the financial markets on the return on earmarked assets (which must be appreciated over the long term), of regulatory changes and of variation of net discount rates related to end-of-lifecycle commitments. The definition of adjusted net income attributable to owners of the parent is provided in Appendix 2 of this document.

Adjusted net income attributable to owners of the parent was a loss of 145 million euros in the year ended December 31, 2019, compared with a profit of 72 million euros in 2018.

Starting with operating income as described above, and restated for the share of profit from joint ventures and the share of non-controlling interests in profit for the period, adjusted net income attributable to owners of the parent is obtained by adding in the following main components:

• Adjusted net financial income, which amounted to 514 million euros loss in 2019, compared with a 362 million euros loss in 2018. This trend is attributable largely to exogenous elements stemming from the steep drop in the rates used for the discounting of long term work completion provisions (excluding end-of-lifecycle provisions) in 2019 and the volatility of the hedging instruments resulting from unfavorable change in the EUR/USD interest rate differential between the two periods. In addition, it resulted to a lesser extent from the one-off cost of debt in connection with the debt management transaction carried out in April 2019, which optimized its cost and extended its average maturity.

• The adjusted net tax expense, which was 36 million euros, compared with an expense of 70 million euros in 2018.

Net income attributable to owners of the parent

Net income attributable to owners of the parent was 408 million euros in 2019, compared with a loss of 544 million euros in 2018. Other than the good operational performance of the businesses, this substantial improvement was largely attributable to the return on earmarked assets to cover end-of-lifecycle operations, reflecting the performance of the financial markets throughout 2019.

The following table reconciles adjusted net income attributable to owners of the parent with reported net income attributable to owners of the parent, by reintegrating the financial impacts related to end-of- lifecycle commitments:

In millions of euros	December 31, 2019	December 31, 2018	Change
Adjusted net income attributable to owners of the parent	(145)	72	-217

Tax impact of adjustments	(0)	0	0
Reported net income attributable to owners of the parent	408	(544)	+952

Operating cash flow

Orano’s EBITDA totaled 899 million euros in the year ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 78 million euros compared with 2018. The increase is attributable chiefly to (i) the favorable impact on revenue of the backlog flow structure in the Mining and Front End business units, (ii) the increase in processing volumes in Recycling, and (iii) the contribution of the performance plan. This resulted in savings of 100 million euros over the year compared with 2017. The breakdown of EBITDA by business unit is presented in Appendix 1.

The change in operating working capital was +362 million euros at end-2019, an improvement of 176 million euros compared with 2018, mainly due to an increase in funded investments in the Back End segment and the payment of research tax credit receivables for periods prior to 2019.

Net capex increased by 103 million euros to 554 million euros at December 31, 2019, reflecting the renovation and rejuvenation program of the La Hague plant in the Back End business unit.

Orano’s operating cash flow accordingly reached 702 million euros at December 31, 2019, a strong increase of 148 million euros compared with 2018.

Net cash flow from company operations

Starting from operating cash flow, whose composition is explained above, net cash flow from company operations is obtained by adding:

• The cash cost of borrowed capital, 212 million euros, down compared with 2018 (248 million euros);

• Dividends paid to the group's non-controlling interests in the amount of 3 million euros (compared with 62 million euros paid in 2018) due to payment deferrals;

• Cash consumption related to end-of-lifecycle operations in the amount of 144 million euros (12 million euros in 2018), including a voluntary contribution of 134 million euros made at the end of 2019 to earmarked funds for end-of-lifecycle operations;

• Tax payments in a total amount of 110 million euros, compared with receipts of 3 million euros in 2018. This change stems notably from the reimbursement in 2018 of excess payments made in 2017;

• Other items in a total negative amount of 14 million euros, compared with a negative 78 million euros in 2018. The improvement stems on the one hand from the payment of interest on the early repayment of a customer advance in 2018, and on the other hand from the contribution of a non-controlling interest to the capital increase of a mining subsidiary.

Net cash flows from the company’s activities accordingly amounted to 219 million euros in the year ended December 31, 2019 (compared with 158 million euros in 2018), after a voluntary contribution of 134 million euros to earmarked funds, bringing coverage of end-of-lifecycle operations to 100% (compared with 91% as of December 31, 2018).

Net financial debt and cash

As of December 31, 2019, Orano had net cash of 1.9 billion euros, including 0.4 billion euros in cash financial assets. This cash position is strengthened by a confirmed, undrawn syndicated credit facility of 940 million euros obtained with 11 banking partners.

Furthermore, Orano’s short-term debt as of December 31, 2019 amounted to 746 million euros, and mainly include a bond for which repayment is due in September 2020 in the amount of 500 million euros.

The group had total net debt of 2.2 billion euros as of December 31, 2019, compared with 2.3 billion euros at the end of 2018. Over the period, Orano improved the average maturity of its borrowings by issuing a new 750 million euro bond due in 2026, and redeeming a 750 million euro bond maturing in 2019. The group also partially redeemed a bond maturing in 2024, with a nominal value of 250 million euros.

II. Events since the last publication

• The group won several contracts in the second half of 2019, notably in the following areas:
  • services to nuclear sites in operation or being dismantled (EDF, CEA, RWE), transport and studies related to the treatment and recycling of used fuel;
  • supply of equipment and technical assistance for the construction of a new defluorination facility for depleted uranium at the Zelenogorsk site in Russia (ECP, subsidiary of Rosatom).
• In October 2019, the Board of Directors of the Akouta Mining Company (Cominak), at an extraordinary Board of Directors' meeting of October 23, set the date for the end of production at the Akouta site at March 31, 2021. The decision was made considering the exhaustion of reserves.
• In November 2019, the mediation procedure requested by the United States Department of Justice (DoJ) in June 2019 was concluded by an agreement ordering the discontinuation of the proceedings between NNSA (National Nuclear Security Administration) and MOX Services, 30% owned by Orano, and the payment of the balance of all accounts by the NNSA to MOX Services noting the end of the contract.
• In December 2019, Orano Mining established a partnership with the State Committee for Geology and Mineral Resources of the Republic of Uzbekistan, with the creation of the “Nurlikum Mining” LLC joint venture.

Appendix 1 – EBITDA by business segment

Orano’s EBITDA totaled 899 million euros in the year ended December 31, 2019, up 78 million euros from the 821 million euros reported in 2018. This change breaks down as follows:

• A 50 million euro increase in Mining EBITDA to 634 million euros in 2019, compared with 584 million in 2018, reflecting favorable and expected backlog flows and the positive effects of the performance plan (Value 2020);

• An 80 million euro increase in Front End EBITDA to 244 million euros, up from 164 million euros in 2018. This trend reflects price dynamics on the conversion and enrichment markets and the start of production at the Philippe Coste plant;

• A 47 million decline in Back End EBITDA to 119 million euros in 2019, compared with 166 million euros at December 31, 2018, taking into account the contribution in 2018 of a major export contract in Recycling, together with operating difficulties in Logistics in the United States and at the Melox plant in Recycling in 2019, mitigated by the increase in processing volumes at the La Hague plant in Recycling;

• “Corporate and other operations” EBITDA stable at negative 97 million euros compared with negative 94 million euros in 2018.

Appendix 2 – Definitions

• Like-for-like (LFL): at constant exchange rates and consolidation scope.

• Operating working capital requirement (Operating WCR):

Operating WCR represents all of the current assets and liabilities related directly to operations. It includes the following items:

• inventories and work-in-process;
• trade accounts receivable and related accounts;
• advances paid;
• other accounts receivable, accrued income and prepaid expenses;
• derivative hedging instruments and hedged items relating to commercial operations;
• minus: trade accounts payable and related accounts, trade advances and prepayments received (excluding interest-bearing advances), other operating liabilities, accrued expenses, and deferred income.

Note: Operating WCR does not include non-operating receivables and payables such as income tax liabilities, amounts receivable on the sale of non-current assets, and liabilities in respect of the purchase of non-current assets.

• Backlog:

The backlog is determined on the basis of firm orders, excluding unconfirmed options, using the contractually set prices for the fixed component of the backlog and, for the variable component, the market prices based on the forecast price curves prepared and updated by Orano. Orders in hedged foreign currencies are valued at the rate hedged. Non-hedged orders are valued at the rate in effect on the last day of the period. The backlog reported for long- term contracts recorded under the percentage of completion method and partially performed as of the reporting date is equal to the difference between (a) the projected sales revenue from the contract at completion and (b) the sales revenue already recognized for this particular contract. Accordingly, the backlog takes into account escalation and price revision assumptions used by the group to determine the projected revenue at completion.

• Net cash flow from company operations:

Net cash flow from company operations is equal to the sum of the following items:

• operating cash flow;
• cash flow from end-of-lifecycle operations;
• change in non-operating receivables and liabilities;
• financial income;
• tax on financial income;
• dividends paid to minority shareholders of consolidated subsidiaries;
• net cash flow from operations sold, discontinued and held for sale, and cash flow from the sale of those operations;
• acquisitions and disposals of current and non-current financial assets, with the exception of bank deposits held for margin calls on derivative instruments or collateral backed by structured financing and cash management financial assets.

As such, net cash flow from company operations corresponds to the change in net debt

(i) with the exception of transactions with Orano SA shareholders, accrued interest not yet due for the financial year and currency translation adjustments, and (ii) including accrued interest not yet due from the prior year.

• Operating cash flow (OCF):

Operating cash flow (OCF): operating cash flow (OCF) represents the amount of cash flow generated by operating activities before income tax. It is equal to the sum of the following items:

• EBITDA;
• plus losses or minus gains on disposals of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets included in operating income;
• plus the decrease or minus the increase in operating working capital requirement between the beginning and the end of the period (excluding reclassifications, currency translation adjustments and changes in consolidation scope);
• minus acquisitions of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, net of changes in accounts payable related to fixed assets;
• plus sales of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets included in operating income, net of changes in receivables on the sale of fixed assets;
• plus prepayments received from customers during the period on non-current assets;
• plus acquisitions (or disposals) of consolidated companies (excluding equity associates), net of the cash acquired.

• Net debt:

Net debt is defined as the sum of all short and long-term borrowings, less cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments recorded on the assets side of the balance sheet including borrowings, bank deposits constituted for margin calls on derivative instruments and collateral backed by structured financing and cash management financial assets.

• Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA):

EBITDA is equal to operating income after depreciation, depletion, amortization and provisions, net of reversals. EBITDA is restated to exclude the cost of end-of-lifecycle operations performed in nuclear facilities during the year (facility dismantling, waste retrieval and packaging). It should be noted that the cash flows linked to end-of-lifecycle operations are presented separately.

• Cash flows from end-of-lifecycle operations:

This indicator encompasses all of the cash flows linked to end-of-lifecycle operations and to assets earmarked to cover those operations. It is equal to the sum of the following items:

• revenue from the portfolio of earmarked assets, cash from disposals of earmarked assets;
• full and final payments received for facility dismantling;
• minus acquisitions of earmarked assets;
• minus cash spent during the year on end-of-lifecycle operations;
• minus full and final payments paid for facility dismantling.

• Adjusted net income attributable to owners of the parent:

This indicator is used to reflect Orano’s industrial performance independently of the impact of financial markets and regulatory changes in respect of end-of-lifecycle commitments. It comprises net income attributable to owners of the parent, adjusted for the following items:

• return on earmarked assets;
• impact of changes in discount and inflation rates;
• discontinuing of end-of-lifecycle operations (regulated scope);
• significant impacts of regulatory changes on end-of-lifecycle commitment estimates (adjustment impacting operating income);
• related tax effects.

Appendix 3 - Impact of IFRS 16 and change in the presentation of end-of-lifecycle operations

The impact on the Group of IFRS 16 “Lease contracts”, whose application is compulsory as of January 1, 2019, is not significant. Orano decided to use the modified retrospective transition method. As a result, the 2018 comparative data has not been restated for IFRS 16 effects.

Note that lease liabilities are not included in Orano’s definition of net debt.

In addition, comparative data for the year ended December 31, 2018 was restated to take into account the change in the presentation of end-of-lifecycle operations in order to reflect the performance of plant dismantling activities separately from commercial activities.
