To estimate Moody’s adjusted leverage trend for HERA S.P.A. in 2022, we evaluate the change in financial leverage by comparing the key financial position and performance data between the beginning and end of the fiscal year (2022).

1.  **Debt Increase:** Non-current financial liabilities rose significantly from 3,716,000,000 EUR to 5,689,900,000 EUR, and current financial liabilities increased from 499,700,000 EUR to 650,100,000 EUR. Total financial debt increased substantially.
2.  **Cash Position:** While cash and cash equivalents grew (from 885,600,000 EUR to 1,942,400,000 EUR), the absolute increase in debt significantly outpaced the growth in cash, leading to a rise in net debt.
3.  **Profitability (EBITDA proxy):** Moody’s adjusted leverage is typically calculated as (Total Debt / EBITDA). "Profit Loss From Operating Activities" (Operating Income) declined from 611,700,000 EUR in 2021 to 533,800,000 EUR in 2022. Even when accounting for "Amortisation Depreciation And Provisions" (667,100,000 EUR in 2022 vs 612,100,000 EUR in 2021), the operating cash flow before working capital changes (1,202,000,000 EUR) remained effectively stagnant compared to the previous year (1,205,500,000 EUR).
4.  **Trend:** The company experienced a significant increase in financial liabilities while operating profitability (EBITDA) remained essentially flat or slightly declined. This indicates a higher ratio of debt to earnings, which represents a deterioration in the credit leverage profile.
