Consolidated earnings and financial position
- Robust operational cash flow (OCF) generation and a working capital release, which includes the reduction in margin account balances (natural gas hedging positions roll-off, as expected).
- Net debt expected to be reduced to c.€2.1 bn at the end of quarter, despite the stake acquisition and consolidation of Titan, distributions to shareholders and to minority partners.
