To estimate the Net Debt / EBITDA ratio for TenneT Holding B.V. for 2022 based on the S&P methodology, I’ll proceed step by step. ### Step 1 – Determine EBITDA S&P typically calculates EBITDA as operating profit/loss before depreciation and amortization, adjusted for certain items. From the given data, for 2022: - Profit/loss from operating activities: **-976,000,000 EUR** - Depreciation and amortization expense: **1,233,000,000 EUR** Thus, **EBITDA** = -976,000,000 + 1,233,000,000 = **257,000,000 EUR** S&P may also adjust for other items (e.g., share of profit from associates/JVs if not received in cash), but based on available data, this simple EBITDA is a reasonable starting point. ### Step 2 – Determine Net Debt S&P’s definition of net debt includes: - Long-term borrowings - Short-term borrowings - Current bank overdrafts - Lease liabilities (current and noncurrent) - Other financial liabilities (current and noncurrent) that are debt-like - Less: Cash and cash equivalents From the balance sheet at end-2022: - Long-term borrowings: 19,006,000,000 EUR - Short-term borrowings: 709,000,000 EUR - Current bank overdrafts: 0 EUR - Noncurrent lease liabilities: 574,000,000 EUR - Current lease liabilities: 155,000,000 EUR - Other noncurrent financial liabilities: 185,000,000 EUR - Other current financial liabilities: 550,000,000 EUR **Gross debt** = 19,006,000,000 + 709,000,000 + 574,000,000 + 155,000,000 + 185,000,000 + 550,000,000 = **21,179,000,000 EUR** **Cash and cash equivalents**: 6,547,000,000 EUR **Net debt** = 21,179,000,000 – 6,547,000,000 = **14,632,000,000 EUR** ### Step 3 – Net Debt / EBITDA 14,632,000,000 / 257,000,000 ≈ **56.93** So the ratio is roughly **56.9**. 56.9
