Reasoning: A hybrid bond prospect is typically most attractive when the issuer has: - large scale and established capital-markets access; - meaningful debt/refinancing needs; - stable cash flows and investment-grade-style infrastructure/utility profile; - balance-sheet incentives to preserve credit metrics; - no very recent hybrid issuance that may have already satisfied near-term hybrid needs. **Entity B — A2A / A2A Energia profile** looks like the strongest first target. It is the largest by revenue, with 2022 revenue of about €23.2bn, and it has a sizeable and rising balance sheet. Financial liabilities increased materially, with noncurrent financial liabilities rising from €4.3bn to €5.9bn and current financial liabilities also material. It generated positive operating cash flow and free cash flow improved, but capex and acquisitions remain substantial. Leverage and funding needs appear significant, while equity increased only modestly. Unlike Entity A, there is no evidence in the data of a 2022 hybrid bond already issued, so the bank may have a clearer opportunity to originate a new hybrid transaction. **Entity C — Redeia** should be second. It has very strong infrastructure characteristics, stable regulated-style cash flows, sizeable long-term borrowings, and high-quality earnings. It also has substantial financing and refinancing activity, with large repayments of financial debt in 2022 and continued investment needs. However, leverage appears lower than A2A’s on an equity-adjusted basis, profitability is very stable, and the urgency for hybrid capital looks somewhat less pronounced. It remains a credible hybrid candidate, but not as compelling as B. **Entity A — Terna** should be third despite being a strong infrastructure issuer. Terna has a very suitable profile for hybrids: regulated electricity transmission, large capex, substantial borrowings, and stable profitability. However, the decisive factor is that it already issued a large perpetual hybrid bond in 2022, shown by “Equity Instruments Perpetual Hybrid Bonds” of €989m and “Movement in the Reserve for Equity Instruments” of €989m. That likely reduces the near-term need and makes it a less immediate origination prospect than B or C. B,C,A
