Management maintained a positive outlook, projecting continued growth in regulated activities and a commitment to a robust investment plan, with a focus on sustainability and infrastructure development for the upcoming strategic period from 2026 to 2029.

Main topics

  • Record Investment in TSO Operations: Redeia achieved a historic investment record of EUR 1.5 billion in TSO operations for 2025, marking a 40% increase from the previous year. CEO Roberto García Merino emphasized, "This figure marks a milestone in the company's history and represents nearly a fourfold increase in investment pace in over 4 years."
  • Regulatory Developments and Financial Remuneration: The CNMC published a new remuneration circular for electricity transmission activities for the 2026-2031 period, establishing a financial remuneration rate of 6.58%, up from 5.58%. This change is expected to enhance revenue stability for Redeia's regulated business.
  • Geopolitical Challenges and Market Resilience: Despite geopolitical instability, Redeia's CEO noted that Spain's energy sector has shown resilience, with electricity prices stabilizing and remaining lower than in other EU countries. "Spain recorded the lowest electricity price in the entire EU, around EUR 40 megawatt hour," he stated.
  • Concerns Over System Stability Post-Blackout: Analysts expressed concerns regarding the stability of the electricity system following the April 2025 blackout, with shareholders questioning management's accountability. One shareholder remarked, "You must guide by example. You are the main operator," highlighting the need for improved system reliability.
  • Future Growth and Strategic Plan: Management outlined an ambitious strategic plan for 2026-2029, focusing on a EUR 13 billion investment in the transmission grid and a commitment to sustainability. The CEO stated, "This new strategic commitment represents a decisive step forward, consolidating our leadership and ensuring a secure, resilient and decarbonized electricity system."

Key metrics mentioned

  • Revenue: EUR 3.2B (vs EUR 3.1B last year, +4.2% YoY)
  • Net Income: EUR 506M (vs EUR 369M last year, +37.2% YoY)
  • EBITDA Margin: 75.8% (inline with expectations)
  • Total Investments: EUR 1.5B (record high, +40% YoY)
  • Financial Remuneration Rate: 6.58% (up from 5.58% in previous period)
  • Dividend per Share: EUR 0.60 (supplementary dividend announced)

Redeia's strong financial performance and ambitious investment plans position the company well for future growth, particularly in the context of Spain's energy transition. However, ongoing concerns about system stability and management's accountability following the blackout present risks that investors should monitor closely. The upcoming strategic plan and regulatory developments will be key catalysts for Redeia's performance in the coming years.

Finally, I remind you that if you cast multiple votes on the remote attendance platform, only the last one will be taken into account. Next, I will briefly share with you some reflections on the strategic aspects of Redeia's activities during the 2025 fiscal year. The CEO's subsequent remarks will address these matters in greater detail. Ladies and gentlemen, shareholders, we are holding this year's 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders against a turbulent and deeply troubling international backdrop. Over the past 12 months, [ polarization ] has continued to grow and so have military conflicts, particularly the war waged by the U.S. and Israel against Iran, which have plunged the global economy into state of great fragility, so much so that the [ IMF ] has warned of the risk of facing the greatest energy crisis of the modern era. Spain is showing greater resilience to volatility in the energy sector, particularly in the electricity sector, thanks in large part to the consideration of our generation mix. Our country, as confirmed by prestigious European fintechs, such as [ Ember ] and [ Bruvo ], has largely decoupled electricity prices from fossil fuels, thanks to the high penetration of renewables. Although prices rose sharply at the start of the conflict in Iran, they stabilized quickly and are now substantially lower than those in other European Union countries. In fact, during the first quarter of 2026, Spain, along with Portugal, recorded the lowest electricity price in the entire EU, around EUR 40 megawatt hour. In April as well, the Iberian market recorded the second lowest price on the continent. Spain's greater resilience in the face of the crisis reinforces our role in a European energy system that must, without fail, move towards greater autonomy. And this also highlights the competitive advantage afforded by our lower dependence on fossil fuels, such as oil or gas, whose prices, as you know, have skyrocketed due to the crisis. This evidence further underscores the need to streamline and strengthen international interconnection to accelerate European energy sovereignty, which will be key in an international geopolitical landscape where the need to reduce independence on third countries is becoming increasingly urgent. In short, it is essential to continue advancing the internal energy market and accelerate the green transition to address the international situation as well as the effect of climate change, which is increasingly undeniable as all the data show. The last 3 years have been the warmest on record globally according to [ Copernicoystem ]. In Spain, the annual average temperature in 2025 was 15 degrees. That's 1.1 degrees above the average. Fires burned more than 1 million hectares in the EU nearly half of them in the Iberian Peninsula according to a report by the European Forest Fire Information System. In Spain, more than 350,000 hectares were burned in over 2,500 fires. In the first quarter of 2026, twice as many hectares have been bullet compared to the same period in 2025 according to the Ministry of Energy Transition. This compels us to keep a close eye on what will happen when the hottest months arrive to address the challenges arising from this situation as well as a consequences of the international political and economic context and the objectives of the European Energy and [ Climate Agenda ], progress in the field of European regulation has been significant and rapid over the 12 past months. In September 2025, the European Commission announced the energy highways initiative to remove the 8 critical bottlenecks in the European Union's energy infrastructure, designating the interconnection between Spain and France as a top priority and committing to accelerate these projects immediately through enhanced political coordination. This initiative is key to advancing the new power links across the pies. And we hope that in the coming weeks, technical and financial work can begin to move forward with the development of these infrastructures, which are critical for the security of the EU's energy supply. Last December, the commission also presented the networks package, which includes legislative proposals to accelerate the planning, authorization and implementation of networks, increase integration of renewables and strengthen interconnections between member states. Currently, the Council and the European Parliament are negotiating their amendments and a final tax is expected to be agreed upon by late fall. Most -- more recently, last March, the commission presented a clean energy investment strategy to be implemented in collaboration with the European Investment Bank with a commitment to provide over EUR 75 billion in funding over the next 3 years through the fund in support of the goals to the transition of the clean energy. Moreover, the Council and European Parliament just approved in April the seventh list of projects of common interest, which includes up to 4 interconnection projects affecting Spain, with Northern Portugal and 3 with France. Progress in European regulation largely lays the groundwork for a new phase in the energy transition in which Spain serves as a benchmark on the continent. For the third consecutive year, renewable generation exceeded 50% in 2025, reaching around 57% of the mix. In the first 4 months of 2026, the share of renewables in the Spanish energy mix exceeded 61%, including self-consumption data, which, as you know, [ Red Electrica ] has been publishing since last December. The top technologies in the ranking are wind power, photovoltaic together with self-consumption, nuclear, hydroelectric and in the fifth place, combined cycle power. And for the fourth consecutive year, we ended 2025 with a net export surplus. Specifically, electricity exports increased by 25%. And we are the second country in the EU in terms of generation and installed capacity from solar and wind technologies just after Germany. This is explained by the fact that the transmission grid in Spain now exceeds 46,000 kilometers carrying electricity produced by plants and power stations with an installed generation capacity of 150 gigawatts, including the more than 9 gigawatts of residential solar power already installed in our country. As a result, renewable sources account for 70% of the generation capacity. Add to these figures, the access and connection permits granted for a capacity of 127 gigawatts for wind and photovoltaic facilities, 18 gigawatts for storage and 19 gigawatts for demand side facilities. On the latter, since 2022, the date the current plan was approved, permits for 11.1 gigawatts of capacity for new demand facilities have been granted and remain in effect, though these facilities have not yet been commissioned as they have 5 years from the date the permit was obtained to do so. The volumes demand with permits pending connection only to the transmission grid would represent 25% increase in the country's current demand. A demand [indiscernible] instantaneous peak in 2025 was still well below the historical maximum recorded in 2007. In any case, the transmission grid still has capacity for new demand access requests at [ 38% ] of its notes. This is the information that Red Electrica has been obtaining on its website since February 20 in compliance with the detailed specification of the [ CNMC ] dated December 1, 2025, incorporated into this extensive body of regulations, which comprises 30 text law decreased ministerial order, [indiscernible] and resolutions that defines in detail the procedure for granting grid access permits and which the system operated [indiscernible] applies as it is to be expected. These figures, of course, do not align with the self-serving description of a physically collapsed or saturated transmission grid. But it is true that in recent years, there has been a flood of applications and many projects have secured grid access and are occupying capacity without their maturity level being known. To address this situation, 2 significant regulatory developments are underway. On the one hand, the draft Royal Decree already submitted for public consultation by the Ministry of Energy Transition imposes robustness criteria and certain demand such as data centers and electrifiers connected by power electronics to ensure that they reduce available capacity at [indiscernible] nodes. On the other hand, Royal Decree Law 7 2026, which regulates a comprehensive response plan to the Middle East crisis and also includes a package of anti-hoarding measures and prioritization rules for the use of power grids. Indeed, the past 12 months have been highly significant from a regulatory standpoint in our country as well, beginning with the measures to strengthen and modernize the electricity system derived from the zero energy incident of April 28, 2025. A year ago, ladies and gentlemen, I began my address to this shareholders' meeting by describing that moment as the most challenging Red Electrica had faced in its 40-year history. I predicted back then that the company would emerge from this major test of resilience by reaffirming its defining characteristic, its deep commitment to public service. And today, I stand by that. Also, a year ago, I reported to this meeting on the main conclusion of the technical report that the system operator had submitted just 10 days earlier as required by law regarding the circumstances of the blackout. Time, ladies and gentlemen, has proven us right. And all the official reports published confirmed that as Red Electrica anticipated that this event was unprecedented, unforeseeable and multifactorial event. Particularly relevant are the conclusions of the final report by the panel of 49 European experts commissioned by the European Commission, which was presented on March 20 and whose main findings confirm that Red Electrica did not fail. There was no breach of duty or conduct attributable to Red Electrica that led to the blackout on April 28, 2025. The report endorses point by point the OS analysis of June 18. This was based on the objectivity and independence required by the electricity sector law and supported by scientific evidence from the data and technical rigor, a report that Red Electrica has consistently defended since then. The European study identifies as root causes 2 [ oscillations ], forced the disconnection of a significant number of small-scale PV installations, the improper disconnection of generation facilities and voltage control by generators below regulatory requirements. Therefore, Today, as the new year begins, we reaffirm -- I reaffirm our full confidence in the teams at Red Electrica in the performance of their duties before, during and after that blackout with strict regulatory compliance as their sole guide for action. We have demonstrated this in the briefs we have already filed in response to the disciplinary proceedings initiated by the National Commission on Markets and Competition. In these submissions, we have highlighted the conflict of interest in which the regulator finds itself in this proceeding as well as the defects, both procedural and substantive that in the opinion of our legal team plagued the proceeding and would render the proceedings not and void among them, the incomprehensible vagueness of the alleged facts given the exhaustive investigative file process by the CNMC prior to the initiation of the disciplinary proceedings, and we provide compelling evidence of the system operators' full compliance with its regulatory obligations at all times. These arguments and conclusive evidence should lead to the dismissal of the case. We view the new tasks and functions that the government and the regulator have been assigning to the system operator. This, both in the recommendations of official reports and in the regulatory and technical measures approved since then, as a sign of confidence in the operator's rigor and neutrality. Most of these had already been anticipated by Red Electrica itself in its June report. Among the system improvements already approved and implemented or in the process of being implemented, I will highlight the new operating procedure 7.4 proposed by Red Electrica since 2020, which incorporates a compensation scheme for power plants providing dynamic voltage control services as well as a system of penalties for noncompliance. Perhaps the best known measure of the new procedure is the inclusion of renewable generation in this service. Its implementation depends on plant owners applying for inclusion and passing the corresponding qualification tests. As of April 30, 14.5 gigawatts were already providing this voltage control service via set points, of which 6 GW are renewables. At the end of April, the OS submitted for public consultation in compliance with Royal Decree 997 by 2025 and after sending it to the regulator and the ministry, the modification of a series of operating procedures. These provide the system and particularly Red Electrica with new tools in areas that provided mission-critical on April 28, such as voltage control, adverse oscillations, the disconnection of facilities whose malfunction poses a risk to the system, over voltages in transmission networks and the monitoring with potential penalties of active power variation ramps. Thus, a new safety criterion is being incorporated to monitor the rate of voltage change aiming for greater control of this parameter. In compliance with the same decree, the system operator has submitted to the CNMC and the Ministry a proposed procedure for coordination between the transmission and distribution network development plans. The minimum monitoring requirements necessary for incident review and an analysis defining a procedure to establish how to submit the requested information to the system operator for the corresponding incident analysis. The same package includes a review of the regulation of balancing services and the scheduling of technical restrictions to incorporate new system situations and innovative solutions. Regarding technical constraints, I would like to focus on the so-called enhanced operation with which the system operator has been strengthening voltage control since April 29, 2025, given the evidence that the incident occurred due to a series of cumulative and exceptional circumstances that far exceeded the safety criteria established by regulation. In other words, the so-called reinforced operation is not evidence that insufficient synchronous generation was scheduled as is intentionally implied. It is evidence of multiple unpredictable phenomenon occurred. Oscillations, the most severe ever recorded in the history of the Spanish power system or grid, multiple disconnections of small field generation, which the systems operator has no visibility into and incorrect disconnections of large-scale plants, compounded by the fact that the schedule of synchronous generation failed to meet its voltage control obligations to a significant degree. And the paradox is that the very same entities that failed to meet their regulatory obligations are now receiving revenue from this so-called reinforced operation. How much does this amount to? EUR 711 million as of April 30. That is 2% of the system cost for the period, which totaled nearly EUR 34 billion. The regulator, which like the ministry is informed promptly and periodically, has endorsed our calculations, which amount to EUR 0.04 per day for a typical [ PVC ] user. I will not get into whether that is much or not. I understand that for some users, it may be a significant extra cost, but it is a safety cost. How long will it last? It is a fact that the electricity system is changing, and it is necessary to implement all the approved measures and ensure greater certainty that all stakeholders comply with the regulations. Along with the system improvement measures stemming from the net zero energy initiative, I would like to mention some of the regulatory and legislative developments from recent months that will shape Redeia's work in the immediate future and which our CEO will discuss in greater detail afterwards. To begin with the most recent, I will sign aforementioned Royal Decree Law 7 2026, which introduces 880 measures aimed at mitigating the effects of the current international context on energy prices, but also accelerating the energy transition. It therefore, incorporates very significant provisions for the electricity system in Spain. Also noteworthy in this review are the remuneration circulars approved by the CNMC for the new 2026, 2031 period, setting a financial remuneration rate of 6.58% for the next 6 years as well as the new remuneration for the systems operator for the 2026, 2028 period. We believe that transmission grid assets must be adequately compensated at a time when the critical role played by both their reinforcement and maintenance is unquestionable. For this reason, we had hold for different regulatory signals more in line with those of TSOs in the region, given the investments that are currently underway in the electricity infrastructure and the continued investment as we will see, that will be required in the coming years because Red Electrica will continue to fulfill its functions as a TSO, system operator and transmission grid manager, a model that, as is well known, we established in Spain back in 1985 and which has since been replicated by all European Union countries and is the most effective in management, the safest in operations, the most efficient in terms of investment and the most economical for consumers' bills. A model that now in the midst of transformation of electricity systems makes even more sense than ever because it ensures orderly grid development consistent with the country's economic and social needs. But as the electricity sector law itself stipulates, it requires fair compensation that allow us to compete with our counterparts, fulfill an essential social function and reasonably reward our shareholders relative to other system participants. It is surprising that some of these operators are interested in developing the transmission network, which as they have publicly acknowledged, reserve only to maximize the profitability of their business when at the same time, they are considering, and we've heard this publicly, possible limitations on their investments in distribution networks in Spain due to failing to achieve, they say, the desired return. Furthermore, the participation in the transmission grid of business groups with diversified activities such as generation, marketing and distribution would constitute a conflict of interest. They could not guarantee either the neutrality or the independence that characterize the TSO model. All of this brings me naturally to the draft electricity plan for the 2025, 2030 period, which will mobilize more than EUR 13 billion in investment in the transmission grid. It is currently in the phase of analyzing the comments submitted during the public consultation launched by the government. Its main distinguishing feature is that for the first time, it focuses on demand, proposing infrastructure to meet the needs of the productive sector, industrial and technological alike, the electrification of transportation and for instance, a total of 27 gigawatt electrolyzers that is 14 -- 14x more than what is currently planned under the existing framework. It also includes the specific projects needed to integrate renewable generation and strengthen the security and stability of supply as well as essential elements such as international interconnections and the connection between island and mainland systems. As I will explain later, this will be the main guide for our new investment plan, this plan. But before delving into that chapter, a couple more notes on the new legislative and regulatory developments approved or announced in the recent period must be heard. Because the loyal decree law on urgent measures due to the crisis in Iran also streamlines and makes the planning process more flexible to better adapt to the needs of the moment in line with what Red Electrica has proposed. Also currently under review is the Royal Decree on maximum investment limits in transmission and distribution networks that may be reimbursed at the expense of the electricity system. With this regulatory framework in place, we have completed Redeia's 2021-2025 strategic plan. And last February, we presented our road map for the next 4 years, our 2026 -2029 strategic plan. Regarding the former, we have exceeded the targets set through 2025, placing the company in a very solid position to tackle the challenges of the coming period. The TSO's investments have reached EUR 4.4 billion, exceeding the initial target of EUR 3.9 billion. We closed out 2025 with over EUR 1.5 billion, a record figure in the company's 41-year history, representing a nearly fourfold increase in the investment pace in just 4 years. No other company has invested as much in Spain's electricity grids in recent years as the one I am honored to lead. And at this point, I believe it is important to explain the evolution of our investments and the context in which they have taken place, starting with a fundamental presence, which is Red Electrica has always been and will always be at the service of the system. In times of cost containment, the company had to adapt to existing conditions and adjust investments at context, such as when Royal Decree Law 30 in 2012 effectively suspended the implementation of the current plan, limiting the construction of new infrastructure to what was necessary. Now shaped by the context of the energy transition, Red Electrica has also successfully adapted by systematically increasing its investments so that in recent years, the pace of investment in the transmission grid has risen at an average rate of nearly [ 33 0% ]. Based on the latest available data from 2024, Red Electrica undertook investments in the transmission grid that accounted for 82% of its annual revenue, more than double the equivalent figure for each one of the distribution companies. So our commitment is clear. To undertake and execute the investments outlined in our planning documents, overcoming any barriers that may hinder their implementation, particularly regarding processing times, all of this with an unequivocal goal to meet the needs of the country and grid users and effectively enable the energy transition, both in Spain and at the European level, even within a context that is more than demanding from a financial and regulatory standpoint. Our CEO, Roberto García Merino, will delve into the details of the projects developed over the past 12 months to implement the current 2021-2026 plan. Both the version initially approved back in 2022 and subsequent specific amendments from 2024 and 2025. And as you will see, over the past year, we have strengthened the transmission grid in every single autonomous community, Madrid, Aragon, Extremadura, Catalonia, the Valencian community, Cantabria, Navarre, Andalusia, Murcia, The Basque Country, [indiscernible], La Mara and León. And I could go on to list the entire territory where we have deployed new infrastructure to boost the productive sector, industrial and technological, advance the electrification of ports and rail corridors and promote the sustainable transformation of the energy model, in short, to enable economic activity and the generation of business and jobs. There is no industry, no major consumer sector nor any actor in general that cannot move forward simply because the transmission grid to connect 2 has not yet been installed. I would like to highlight this year's progress on interconnections, specifically the construction of the link with France across the Bay of say and also the one connecting us to Portugal via Galicia. The process for the second interconnection between the Peninsula and the Balearic Island is also moving forward and the project for the new Majorca-Mnorca Link has already been presented. In addition, we completed work on the cable between Tenerife and La Gomera and on the Mainland [indiscernible] interconnection, ending the autonomous enclave cities and its citizens' long-standing electrical isolation. The company's extensive institutional outreach has been crucial to advancing all these projects across the country. In 2025 and the first month of 2026, I visited 12 of the 17 autonomous communities apart from [ Septa ], to promote in close collaboration with the public administrations and civil society, the electrical infrastructure they need and demand from Aragon to Navarre, from Andalusia to Asturias, from Catalonia to the Best country from the Canary Islands to [ SPA ]. This effort is not limited to the company's senior management. We have launched a cross-sector active listening program in which we are traveling across the country, bringing together at the same table, representatives from regional governments, parliaments, assemblies, provincial councils, city councils, NGOs, economic stakeholders, citizen platforms and universities with the goal to find solutions together to accelerate investments in the transmission grid. The first thoughts in this program have been Andalusia, [indiscernible] Catalonia, The Basque Country, [indiscernible], Castile and León, Murcia, Madrid and Asturias, where together, we have identified the barriers that hinder and impede the development of the transmission grid in each region, sharing possible solutions to accelerate the energy transition. Nor do we limit this initiative to the national level because a significant portion of our actions are regulated by Brussels, Europe and because we also operate in Latin America, Peru, Chile, Brazil. And that is why we launched the Brussels 2025-2029 plan, which prioritizes promoting interconnections between the Iberian Peninsula and the rest of the EU's electricity system. This European vision and the interconnections were also the focus of our participation in the EU LAC Business Forum held in November in Colombia, where I was able to share our leadership in achieving the energy transition on both sides of the ocean in Spain as well as in Peru, Chile and Brazil, where we have a presence. And add to this, the 100 institutional visits received at our control centers, many of them international in nature, 177 institutional collaboration agreements signed, more than half of them directly focused on local development and the [ 990 ] partnerships established, most of which are aligned with the objectives of the Paris Agreement. And we will continue down this path because the new phase of the transition requires continued investment in infrastructure and the incorporation of technology, digitalization, innovation and new capabilities to take full advantage of all the opportunity that the transition itself brings to economic growth, industrial development and social progress. And that is the focus of the company's upcoming strategic plan, which represents the most ambitious investment cycle in our history, primarily to implement the next electricity plan. But before we get to numbers, allow me to outline its conceptual framework. It stems from Redeia's recent data to drive the energy model and connectivity of the future. This is our mission, which is complemented by how we carry it out by generating a positive impact on climate change, nature, the region and people. That is why sustainability is the guiding framework for all strategic decisions. And that is why we are presenting simultaneously and with the same time frame, 2026, 2029, both the strategic plan and the sustainability plan, which I will discuss in more detail. The strategic plan is structured around 5 pillars. First, TSO growth, building and operating a safe and reliable electricity system and facilitating the energy transition. The future growth strategy of Redeia focuses on strengthening Spain's electricity transmission infrastructure which is key to the energy and industrial transformation the country is undertaking. For this reason, 94% of the planned investment will be allocated to Red Electrica, the TSO. Second pillar, we will leverage diversification through strategic alliances, both at Rider, our transmission subsidiary in LatAm, to strengthen and expand transmission networks in Brazil, Chile and Peru and at Raintel, our dark fiber brand, which will continue to serve traditional customers while also expanding its network capacity to meet the growing demand for high-quality connectivity. The third pillar concerns technological innovation and digitization spearheaded by our technology platform, Elit. It will focus on developing scalable solutions that improve the efficiency of our operations, designing tools that strengthen supply security and innovative solutions that allow us to anticipate technological changes. We will promote the use of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity will, of course, also be a special focus of attention. Ethics are paramount. A part as challenging as the one we are presenting also requires a strong commitment to financial sustainability and value creation, which are critical elements in a context of significant investments. Equally critical and constituting the fifth pillar is the attraction and development of talent, improving the overall well-being of our workforce and promoting emotional management as part of mental health. We will reform our programs to attract and retain talent with a commitment to advancing workforce diversity as a key priority. These 5 pillars are implemented through 21 strategic initiatives and in turn, 86 key actions. Turning to the numbers now. The plan increases Red Electrica's average annual investment by 770% compared to its previous plan. This, combined with the improvements planned in the permitting process will ensure that all new planning with a projected investment in the proposals submitted for public consultation exceeding [ 1 3 ] -- EUR 13 billion is in service or underway by 2031 with EUR 11.1 billion worth of projects commissioned, 85% of the plan and EUR 2 billion under construction. Roberto will shortly provide the economic and financial details of the plan, which ensures a sustainable and responsible dividend policy translating to annual growth of 2% over the period. As I mentioned, this strategic plan goes hand-in-hand with our renewed commitment to sustainability. The investments I just mentioned will enable us to continue advancing the electrification of the economy and the productive sector, but they will also bring about significant changes in the lives of people. That is why we take our social responsibility so seriously and approach it strategically, holistically with a long-term perspective, paying meticulous attention to every detail regarding the environmental, social, territorial, technological and economic dimensions of everything we do. At Redeia, we understand that sustainability means leading things better than we found them when we arrived. That is, at its core, the essence of being sustainable, being able to endure over time, to continue providing an essential service and to make economic growth compatible with caring for nature, the territory and social well-being. This year, we have completed our 2023-2025 sustainability plan, which involved the implementation of more than [ 490,190 ] actions and which we have concluded with a final compliance rate exceeding 100%. The new plan, a key component of the strategic plan focuses on the need to play an active role in defining and implementing the future energy model while promoting a positive impact on nature, local communities and people, which will be its 2 main goals. It includes a series of levers, management, governance, strategy, finance, technology, organization, relationships and culture that will ensure sustainability is integrated across all aspects of the company's decision-making and operations. It includes 33 key objectives that allow us to measure progress in the company's highest priority areas, ensure consistency with the strategic plan and reinforce Redeia's role as a key player in the energy and digital transition. This plan is designed to consolidate and reinforce decades of work in the field of sustainability, which has led us to be included in the most internationally recognized indices such as the Dow Jones Best-in-class, [ Euronext Vigeo I F4 ] [indiscernible], among others, which recognized the group as one of the most sustainable Spanish companies in the world. Redeia also ranks in the top 1% of the world's most sustainable companies according to Standard & Poor's. We are one of only 2 companies in Spain to have achieved this distinction and one of the [ 77 0 ] worldwide. Electric grids are a major driver of transformation in the world around us. We are transforming the places where we live, and we must do so in a fair, inclusive and environmentally respectful manner. We cannot envision the expansion of the grid without taking society into account its needs, its natural capital and its economic, cultural and heritage context. We cannot ask them to base their solidarity on a general call to combat climate change, promote energy efficiency or integrate renewables. We must offer them an improvement in their well-being. We cannot expect the region to be a recipient of infrastructure. The economic returns we obtain from this deployment must always be accompanied by social returns for which collaboration, dialogue and listening are essential. We do this within the framework of a comprehensive impact strategy, which involves all of the company's business areas to ensure that we deploy our infrastructure in line with this commitment to sustainability and to promote and drive environmental and social initiatives in an integrated and coordinated manner. This strategy has led to the launch of more than 260 [ 2-6-0 ] initiatives since late 2022, with nearly 100 of which were implemented in 2025 with an investment of EUR 6.7 million in the region, which according to our calculations, generate impacts exceeding EUR 83 million in positive returns for the region. This would be possible if we didn't consider our land of action and an outward looking into that, it is relevant to look then to look at corporate governance. I would like to stress that the company has once again obtained the highest rating, G+ in the [indiscernible] Good Corporate Governance Index certification, a rating first achieved in 2024. And regarding the Board of Directors, allow me first and foremost, to highlight its important strategic role in a geopolitical moment such as the one we're living currently. Having a group of professionals with the experience, expertise and specialization of those who make up our Board is essential for looking ahead and identifying risks and opportunities in the immediate and long-term future. Among the milestone in the past 12 months, I would like to highlight the Board's self-assessment process. This is new and has been developed with the support of an international external consultant and allows us to continue advancing our governance model led by the Board itself. Also, the Board updated its competency matrix, a process we completed last February to address the new strategic plan and Redeia's current and future challenges. Likewise, we developed a corporate governance system manual for the company, which represents another step forward in an innovative practice in these areas as it identifies elements that enable the promotion of oversight, updating and continuous improvement of our governance system, thereby reinforcing the trust that you, our shareholders and other stakeholders have in our company. And I would also like to highlight 2 practices that we have continued to consolidate since 2025 and that are now part of our DNA. On the one hand, the development of an annual program of activities and training for the Board and on the other, the annual plan under the protocol for the Board of Directors' engagement with Redeia's teams, which remains a pioneering practice in Spain and facilitates closer ties and interaction between Board members and the workforce. And as for the composition of the Board of Directors, this year, I would like to express my most sincere personal gratitude to the 3 directors present at this event who are leaving the Board today. First, to the 2 independent directors, Mr. [ Antonio Gomesira], also the Coordinating Independent Director, [indiscernible] [ Suco Fernandez Maria], [indiscernible]. Having reached the maximum legal term of 12 years as Independent Director of the company, you're leaving the Board. And I don't want you to do so without highlighting your commitment, rigor and your ethical principles that you've shown throughout these years. 12 years is a lot of years. You've seen the company grow and change, and you've been fundamental. We've learned from you. You've held this company in a high level. And I would like to thank you at a personal level for your way of supporting and her solidarity and your support. It's been a pleasure to have you throughout this year. I wish to acknowledge the work of the shareholder representing SEPI, my ds there. And I also thank for her vital role in consulting and continuing to promote sustainability from the Board of Directors, how you've analyzed data. We've learned so much from you. Thank you. I wish you all the best on your new endeavors. We will always miss you, and this is your home. And I would also like to stress that this Board proposes the appointment of 2 independent directors, [ Marta de la Cuesta Gonzales and Santiago Ortarogas ]. You will be able to meet them, and you probably met them through the documents that were proposed to this meeting today. And the appointment of 2 representative directors. The first, the legal entity, [ CEPI ] itself, represented by [ Mercedes Real Rodcbaz ], who we know very well, which has served as Representative Director of Redeia since 2017; and the second, [ Jose Luis Navarro Ribera ], also as a Representative Director of CEPI. We welcome all 3 of them together with Santiago and Marta. I'm fully confident that given the extensive experience of top level professional expertise of all of them, if the Board approves the proposal today, their contribution to the Board will be of great value in driving forward Redeia's new strategic plan above its period. Another issue I would like to highlight in this area is our code of ethics. In 2027, we will mark the 40th anniversary of our ethical commitment, which laid the foundation for our corporate culture guided by integrity, responsibility and service to the public interest. One of the key milestones of 2025 was the review and update of Redeia's code of ethics and conduct, which incorporates as its main new features, principles regarding the ethical use of technology and responsible public communication. Both of these are fundamental in a highly digitized environment driven by AI. Closely related to integrity and to ethical principles and culture, I would like to highlight a function that, while not always visible, is essential to the strength, sustainability and good governance of our company, the internal audit function. A function that Redeia has held international certification of compliance with the global standards for the professional practice of internal auditing for 20 years. This recognition attests to its fundamental role in identifying and mitigating risks in the transformation and continuous improvement of the organization and in the adoption of best practices in corporate governance. At the start of this fiscal year, the Audit Committee approved the audit function strategy in line with our 2026 -2029 plan, defining 4 strategic pillars: assurance and advisory, positioning, talent and innovation. They lay the foundation upon which to build value excellence and trust within this organization. And in an environment such as the current one characterized by growing regulatory complexity, digital transformation, emerging risks and the demand for transparency for markets and society, internal audit protects the company's value and acts as a trusted partner for the governing bodies, management and RDU's shareholders. Similarly, the strategic importance of this unit has increased significantly, elevating it to corporate management, along with the functions of compliance and risk control, a key element for anticipating and addressing the challenges posed by an increasingly complex and dynamic environment. Redeia has also strengthened its forward-looking analysis capabilities to address the challenge of managing emerging risks, anticipating threats that are still uncertain and bolstering its corporate facilience. There can be no good governance without people and talent management based on empathy, diversity and the well-being of Redeia's teams who are the ones who make the transformation of our energy system possible. As explained earlier, people are one of our pillars of our strategic plan. And with this, we reinforce one of the hallmarks of our identity that we reaffirm year after year. In 2025, we remain at the forefront in the area of diversity and equal opportunity by maintaining gender parity on the Board of Directors. We are 1 of only 5 companies in the stock market carried by women. Women make up 45.5% of Executive Committee and 28% of our workforce is female. So we need to make further efforts here. And for the third consecutive year, we have increased the number of women in management position reaching 39%. We will continue to develop our comprehensive diversity plan, which stems from the commitment of management and the highest level of the organization, which aims to impact our company workforce. In this plan, shared responsibility is a cross-cutting factor in everything we do. And all this work has led us to receive significant recognition. As a result of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, we were named a top diversity company in 2025. I've mentioned perspective, future, long-term vision, anticipate the future, identifying trends even before they become established. Observing and analyzing the environment in a forward-looking manner allows us to shape our future context and stay ahead of emerging issues that may affect us in the long term, anticipate risks, identify opportunities and therefore, strengthen organizational resilience. That is why I do not want to conclude without mentioning our trends and futures initiative, which is especially important for a company like ours. This team has been particularly focused by advances in artificial intelligence and a more complex dynamic geopolitical environment with impacts on the energy sector supply chains and markets. That is why we have also focused our analysis on these areas, but in others such as biotechnology, translating signals and trends into concrete implications for the business, prioritizing lines of work, aligning internal capabilities before changes take hold. And as I said earlier, also anticipating emerging risks. And I'll wrap up now. The current geopolitical landscape has made it clear to everyone that energy is an essential pillar of our economy. The recent events in the Strait of Hormuz, combined with the situation we experienced in Ukraine, have made it evident that moving forward toward energy sovereignty is an absolute priority. And to this end, the development of European networks and interconnection is even more urgent. Being a leading country in renewables has contributed to lower price volatility and gives [indiscernible] a competitive advantage over other countries. Not only do we have the responsibility to capitalize on this, but also we need to have the opportunity to consolidate the country's leadership in this revolution of the industrial and production model that are taking place in Europe and that will intensify in the coming years. At Redeia, we are effectively addressing the needs of this transition, thanks largely to our historic levels of investment already made, which will be increased with the new strategic plan, always guided by sustainability as a framework for our decision, strengthening our work in partnership with the local communities, allowing us to serve as a unifying pillar and contribute to fostering social cohesion. This is achieved through universal access to electricity and connectivity, but also this is possible, thanks to the divisional initiatives that we carry out in the areas where we operate. To this end, we have designed a comprehensive sustainability plan that will allow us to consolidate the progress made in recent years, which has positioned us as national and international leaders. But this would not be possible without the professionalism, talent and perseverance and commitment of a workforce that gives its all every day to contribute each from their own area of expertise and discipline to ensuring that Spain leads the transition towards a new energy system fully prepared for the future. This teams with the same professionalism and the same commitment to public service did not fail on April 28, 2025. On that day, as on every day since its founding in 1985, Red Electrica fulfilled its duty in strict compliance with current regulations. The system operator takes on the new tasks and functions entrusted to it with responsibility and commitment and it is moving forward with their implementation to strengthen the system. But we are much more than that. That is why we are -- it is essential that all stakeholders fulfill their duties. It is an indispensable prerequisite for a safer electric system. Thank you very much. Next, the floor is given to CEO, Mr. Roberto García Merino, to continue presenting to the Board the highlights of Redeia management in 2025.

Dear shareholders, it is an honor to address all of you once again at this Annual General Meeting to review our company's performance and share the most relevant aspects of our management during the past fiscal year. Allow me to begin by highlighting the most significant milestones of 2025 before delving into the evolution of the results achieved. And finally, share with you the main aspects of our new 2026 -2029 strategic plan. 2025 was a complex year, perhaps the most intense in the company's more than 41-year history. Geopolitical instability, repercussions on financial markets and supply chains intense regulatory activity, both at the national and European level and the need to accelerate the energy transition to provide the country with greater energy autonomy and meet the growing demand for the electrification of the economy have required an unprecedented effort from the entire Redeia structure and above all, from the Red Electrica España team. But without a doubt, the incident of April 28 has been the defining event for the company's operations in recent months, an unprecedented unforeseeable multifactorial episode as the Chair noted, reflecting the unanimous conclusion of all official reports, which indicate that Red Electrica did not fail. Our teams acted before, during and after the incident with the utmost professionalism, responsibility, transparency and institutional coordination in accordance with the highest technical and regulatory standards, prioritizing the safety of the power system in strict compliance with current regulations. Clear evidence of this is the new mandates and functions entrusted to the system operator, which we are currently implementing, thereby endowing an increasingly complex system with new capabilities and strengths. As you already know, the CNMC has initiated a disciplinary proceeding against Red Electrica, one of the 64 cases opened to date regarding the incident. And as the regulator has explicitly acknowledged, this does not imply the attribution of the original cost of the blackout nor does it imply that the system operator has been proven to have committed any violation. Red Electrica has submitted the corresponding defense and will take whatever actions are necessary in its defense. In this regard, as we have indicated throughout the past year, our confidence in the Red Electrica team is absolute given their impeccable performance during after the incident. Turning to other operational areas. The most notable development has been the historic investment record achieved in our activity of TSO, exceeding EUR 1.5 billion for the year, representing a 40% increase compared to 2024. This figure marks a milestone in the company's history and represents nearly a fourfold increase in investment pace in over 4 years. Furthermore, it is also clear that fiscal year 2025 has been a pivotal year from a regulatory standpoint, notably marked by the CNMC's publication of the remuneration circular for electricity transmission activities corresponding to the new regulatory period 2026-2031, which I will discuss in greater detail later. Furthermore, as announced on January 31, 2025, Redeia's Board of Directors approved the sale of its 89.68% stake in the share capital of Hespacade S.A. After the conditions precedent set forth in that agreement were met, the transaction was finalized on December 30 for an amount of EUR 725 million, which has strengthened the group's financial capacity to address the new investment cycle that we must manage in coming years. Having outlined the most significant events of the year, I will now analyze the management of our operations as the operator and transmission system operator of the Spanish electricity system. 2025, as I mentioned earlier, marked a turning point in the company's investment cycle with an unprecedented investment in TSO operations. This investment effort includes EUR 1.424 billion dedicated to strengthening transmission grid, resulting in the commissioning of an additional 486 kilometers of power lines and 217 new substations as well as an increase in transformer capacity of 2,460 MPAs with the aim of improving the resilience and transmission capacity of Spain's high-voltage grid. Among the actions carried out, we can highlight initiatives in all autonomous communities with no infrastructure brought online or which progress on the most significant projects outlined in the plan. I cannot mention them all, but allow me to highlight the most significant ones. First, those focused on boosting the productive sector or industrial decarbonization, such as the Eskatrones Portal line in Zaragosa and the Calera and Chosa substations in Toledo, Saguntum in Valencia, Terralla in Navar or San Fernando and Nevo Meco in Madrid, among others. Second, facilities focused on expanding railway corridors, such as the Condada substation in Woba and the Binaduc substation in Almaria. And finally, projects focused on integrating renewables or strengthening the supply such as P400 in Suraslorzano in Cantabria, the southern corridor of Ibisa as electricity reinforcement of the city of Morcia and expansion of Monti Arenas in Leon. Likewise, we have carried out significant actions in the deployment of international interconnections grids between island systems, which are essential for ensuring security of supply. Among them, the following standout: the completion of the mainland soda interconnection, which improved the quality of the power supply in soda by integrating it with the mainland grid, the completion of the Tenaris Lagomer interconnection system designed to integrate the electrical systems of both islands to optimize their efficiency, strengthen supply security and facilitate greater integration of renewables. Also, the completion of the Spanish section of the Galicia Portugal interconnection with the commissioning of the [indiscernible] and Fontefria Portuguese border lines, thereby completing the reinforcement of the electrical connection with Portugal. Also, progress on the electricity interconnection between Spain and France across the BK, which will allow to double the capacity for energy exchange with Europe, although this is still far from the 15% recommended by the EU for 2030. Regarding this project, it is worth noting that in the coming months, we will begin laying the first submarine cable on both the French and Spanish sites. As for energy storage in the Canary Islands, construction works on the South [indiscernible] pump storage plant in Grand Canary is proceeding at a good pace, and this structure is essential for the operation of the system and for advancing the decarbonization of the Canary Island energy model. In 2025, construction work on the hydraulic conduit and excavation of the horizontal galleries and the central can vault were completed and excavation of the vertical shaft have begun. Progress has also been made on the lining of the vault and on the marine construction work associated with this project. In this context, the support of the European Investment Bank is proving crucial, underpinning the financing of this strategic project as well as the undersea interconnection with France. The investment effort in infrastructure construction has been complemented by optimal facility management achieving in 2025 98.38% availability rate for the national transmission grid, up from 98.06% recorded in the previous fiscal year. This highlights the company's rigorous implementation of sustainable, efficient and safe maintenance policies. Internationally, we have once again achieved excellent service quality levels in transmission networks of Peru, Chile and Brazil with availability rates exceeding 99.8%. The optimal management of these infrastructures contributes to efficient energy use and the sustainable development of the countries where we operate. In the telecommunications business, following the sale of Heposat, the focus is on Reintel, which continues to perform well by consolidating long-term commercial relationships with the leading telecommunications operators in Spain. Currently, Reintel manages a fiber optic network of nearly 55,000 kilometers deployed over the power and rail networks. Finally, I'd like to mention our drive for innovation led by ELEVIT, which continues to establish itself within the innovation ecosystem. In 2025, 62 innovation projects were management and 16 technological solutions were adopted with innovations spending exceeding EUR 8 million. Additionally, investment processes and start-ups totaling EUR 2.5 million were launched, bringing the total investment in innovation and technical development to nearly EUR 11 million for the year. As I mentioned earlier, 2025 was also a pivotal year from the regulatory standpoint. Therefore, allow me to take a few minutes to review the main regulatory development. First, the publication of the CNMC circular determining the methodology for calculating the financial remuneration rate, which establishes the remuneration rate applicable to electricity transmission, system operation and distribution activities for the 2026-2031 regulatory period. This calculation sets a financial remuneration of 6.58% compared to 5.58% in the previous year period. Additionally, the publication of the CNMC's circular approving the remuneration methodology for electricity transmission activities as well as the standard facilities and the reference unit values for investment and operation and maintenance applicable during the 2026-2031 regulatory period. Also worth mentioning the CNMC resolution establishing the provisional remuneration amount for the electricity system operation for 2026 and provisionally setting the remuneration parameters for 2026-2028. During the year, the Royal Decree regulating the granting of subsidies from the recovery transformation and resilience plans funds for investments in the transmission grid aimed at strategic decarbonization projects was also approved. The approval of a list of actions to increase the resilience of the transmission grid, which are incorporated as a specific amendment to the 2021-2026 electric power transmission grid development plan. I'd like to remind you that this is the second of its kind following the one approved in April 2024. The second amendment involves an investment of EUR 750 million, bringing the total investment under the 2026 planning horizon to over EUR 8.2 billion. The public here an information process for the draftorial decree amending the investment limit for transmission and distribution networks. In the case of transmission, it meant an additional EUR 720 million per year from 2026 to 2030. It's also very relevant to mention the publication of the 2025-2030 electricity planning proposal, which calls for investments exceeding EUR 13 billion through the end of the decade. Added to all this is the extensive regulatory framework approved or announced by the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the National Commission for Markets and Competition following the incident on April 28, granting new functions to the system operator. Furthermore, the regulatory process driven by European institutions is essential for advancing the energy transition. In this [indiscernible] initiatives such as the networks package aimed at promoting investment in electricity infrastructure, streamlining the permitting process and enhancing coordination in network planning at the European level, along with the energy highways project, which seeks to strengthen international interconnections to increase energy autonomy and security of supply, become strategic elements for ensuring infrastructure development and sustaining the necessary pace of investment required by the transformation of the energy model. As you can see, these are all regulatory development of great significance for Redeia, and they set the framework for the new regulatory period during which the company's ambitious investment and growth cycles for the company will unfold. Turning now to financial results. 2025 slightly exceeded our expectations for the year, showing positive performance across the main business lines with 89% of the group's EBITDA coming from regulated business. Group revenue grew by 4.2%, driven primarily by EUR 71 million increase in regulated business in Spain. This increase is largely due to the application of the new financial remuneration rate approved by the CNMC and the new services that were launched, offset by the amortization of the RAB under the remuneration model and lower unit maintenance costs. The international business showed a slight decline affected by fewer third-party projects in Chile and the euro-dollar exchange rate effect, partially offset by the strong performance and activity, mainly in Peru and Brazil. In the fiber optic business, the positive effect of inflation on CPI-linked contracts is offset by the renegotiation of some contracts in a context of market concentration. Regarding operating expenses, excluding those offset by other operating income, including the TRA hydroelectric plant, operating expenses increased by 5.6% in an environment of heightened activity and operational demand, in line with business growth and network requirements. Personnel expenses increased due to a larger average workforce, essential to address the challenges arising from the strong growth of the group's regulated assets. Other operating expenses increased primarily due to greater maintenance efforts in Spain, which contributed to a high availability rate for the transmission network. In this context, EBITDA increased by 4%, driven mainly by the TSO's greater contribution. Also noteworthy are the improvements of the International segment and the strong performance of the fiber optic business, which combines higher revenues with more contained costs. The financial result worsened by EUR 20 million due to lower financial income compared to 2024 was primarily due to the reduced placement of cash surpluses during 2025. Net income, meanwhile, reached EUR 506 million, which is 37.2% higher than the previous year, which was affected by the accounting impact of the sale of Hispasat in fiscal year 2024. Excluding this effect, income from continuing operations grew by 1.6%. Now regarding the financial outlook, the group's net debt stood at EUR 5.474 billion at the end of 2025, representing an increase of EUR 104 million compared to December 2024. Cash generation, together with the proceeds from the sale of Hispasat amounting to EUR 725 million and dividends from group companies, particularly from Brazil, have made it possible to contain debt growth and maintain a solid financial structure with a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 4.4% and an FFO to net debt ratio of 18.9%. At the same time, we have achieved 81% sustainable financial following the issuance of a new EUR 500 million green bond in 2025. Furthermore, and with the same goal of driving the green transition in Spain, Redeia recently in 2026, issued its first European green hybrid bond with demand 6x higher than supply, demonstrating the markets and investors' confidence in the company. In short, with the 2025 results and the achievements of the 2021-2024 period, we can say that we have exceeded all the objectives set out in our strategic plan for 2021 to 2025, placing the company in a very solid position to tackle the challenges of the new strategic plan. TSO investments for the 2021-2025 period reached EUR 4.4 billion, exceeding the initial target of EUR 3.3 billion, culminating in a record investment of over EUR 1.5 billion in the TSO in 2025 and ending with an EBITDA margin that stood at a solid 75.8%. Likewise, we have ensured stable shareholder returns throughout the period, even exceeding the initial dividend payout target. In summary, we are concluding the strategic plan announced in 2021 and the 2025 fiscal year with an excellent level of execution and a very solid position to tackle the next phase, which will be marked by our new strategic plan with the horizon of 2029. Its primary objective is to promote a sustainable energy model and the connectivity of the future, generating a positive impact on climate change, nature, the territory and people. This new strategic commitment represents a decisive step forward, consolidating our leadership and ensuring a secure, resilient and decarbonized electricity system reinforcing the essential role that energy transmission plays in the energy transition as well as offering a reliable and technologically advanced fiber optic network that contributes to providing universal connectivity, eliminating the digital divide. In this regard, the plan focuses on significant growth in regulated activities in Spain, where more than 90% of our investments are allocated to transmission and system operation to prioritize the development of future electricity planning, optimize system operation and ensure the quality of supply in a rapidly changing environment. At the same time, Redeia will continue to consolidate its international and telecommunications activities, which provide stability and long-term value to the group. The new strategy also focuses on operational efficiency, technological innovation and digitization, which are key elements for operating a more demanding and decarbonized system. Similarly, attracting and retaining talent becomes an essential pillar if we are to successfully address the challenges of the electricity sector. Overall, this plan reinforces Redeia's mission to promote a sustainable, reliable and future-ready electricity system, delivering shared value to society. The plan's main objective will be the implementation of the upcoming electricity plan currently still in the drafting phase for which we will reach historical levels of investment in the TSO with an average annual investment of EUR 1.5 billion, a figure 70% higher than the average annual investment under the previous 2021-2025 strategic plan. This will ensure that by 2031, the entire plan with an initially projected investment of BRL 13.1 billion will already be in service or in the implementation phase with an estimated BRL 11.1 billion in projects coming online during the 2025-2031 period in an environment of improvements to the regulatory framework for permitting processes. [ Vera ] commits to an investment of BRL 6 billion in the TSO during the 2026-'29 period, which added to the investment executed in '25 and planned for the 2030 and 2031 fiscal years will enable the planned commissioning targets to be met. taking into account the regulatory improvements currently underway. The regulated asset base in Spain is therefore expected to experience very significant growth during the period covered by this plan, reaching EUR 12 billion in 2029, representing growth of over 35% and reaching EUR 14.4 billion if we take into account the more than EUR 2 billion in work in progress that will be commissioned in subsequent years. It is clear that we face the challenge of developing the infrastructure needed to achieve the energy transition in a highly competitive and saturated market environment. It is therefore essential to ensure the availability of the supplies and services necessary to carry out the TSO's operations at a reasonable cost. And in this regard, it should be noted that more than 70% of our strategic supplies are guaranteed through 2029. However, all this investment effort would be meaningless without stable and adequate regulation. As I mentioned earlier, the new methodology proposes an ROI of 6.58% for the next 6 years. In addition, unit values have been updated both for CapEx, showing an average increase of 6.4% and for operations and maintenance, in this case, with a 13.4% adjustment in maintenance revenue compared to the previous period. Likewise, first step has been taken toward recognizing work in progress for unique facilities with amounts invested prior to the year of commissioning now being recognized. While the focus of our activity for the coming years will be on the transmission business in Spain, during the 2026-2029 period, we will maintain an investment plan of around EUR 150 million internationally, focused on strengthening and expanding transmission networks in Brazil, Chile and Peru. We will also continue to invest in our dark fiber business, a market in which we are a leading operator, thanks to a stable, predictable model with a long-term focus. During the 2026-2029 period, we will invest approximately EUR 110 million, primarily aimed at strengthening our network, expanding capacity and meeting the growing demand for high-quality connectivity. Another significant aspect is technological innovation and digitization, which are essential for driving the group's efficiency, particularly in the TSO. Between 2026 and 2029, we will allocate EUR 40 million to projects and development of solutions managed by ELEVIT, which support the investment plan and prepare our networks for the energy transition. If we focus on the evolution of the key financial metrics looking ahead to 2029, these directly reflect a company prepared to tackle an unprecedented investment cycle capable of maintaining sustained growth with a greater focus on management and financial discipline. Thus, we estimate EBITDA growth during the period at a rate exceeding 5% annually and net income growth of around 3%. The growth in net financial debt is directly linked to the investment rollout outlined in the plan. Even so, we maintain a robust financial profile with ratios that will allow us to preserve a solid credit rating and continue to access financing on competitive terms. In terms of shareholder returns, we have estimated a dividend policy that provides for annual growth of 2% until reaching EUR 0.87 per share in 2029, ensuring sustainable growth. The regulated business will continue to be the cornerstone of our results. More than 90% of the group's EBITDA comes from regulated activities, which provides us with stability, predictability and a solid foundation for our future growth. The TSO share of this will increase in the coming years, driving the growth in EBITDA and reflecting our ability to execute strategic investments, maintain operational efficiency and advance the energy transition of the electricity system. In conclusion, I would like to summarize the key messages that define our 2026-2029 strategic plan and the growth path we have designed for the coming years. During this 2025-2029 period, Redeia is embarking on the most ambitious investment cycle in its history, demonstrating our firm commitment to the energy transition. A large portion of these investments is aimed at expanding and modernizing the transmission grid to meet the growing needs of the electricity system, the massive integration of renew, the electrification of the economy and the structural improvement of our infrastructure's resilience. This will result in a significant increase in our regulated asset base during the period, reaching EUR 12 billion by the end of 2029, a 35% increase compared to the 2025 baseline, which rises to EUR 14.4 billion when considering the estimated work in progress at the end of the plan. This investment effort is accompanied by a solid and responsible financial policy, noting that this plan will be financed using internal funding sources without the need for a capital increase, thereby preserving stability for our shareholders and reinforcing the financial discipline that characterizes us. In addition, we maintain a policy of growing and sustainable dividends with a 2% annual growth over the period, reflecting an appropriate balance between investment, financial strength and attractive returns for shareholders. And finally, I would like to emphasize once again that the growth of our regulated asset base will be the cornerstone of the group's value creation, reflected in an increase in EBITDA and profit over the period. Furthermore, looking beyond the period covered by the strategic plan, we will consolidate the growth initiated through these investments during this period as RAB will exceed EUR 15 billion by the end of fiscal year 2031. And we will also have projects under construction totaling around EUR 2 billion that will be commissioned in the future. We are on a solid growth trajectory, one that ensures long-term visibility and represents a significant leap forward for Redeia in terms of its asset base with greater revenue-generating capacity and a structural contribution to the development of the Spanish electricity system. A system operated to the highest standards of quality and excellence by the Red Electrica team, always committed to system safety and regulatory compliance. And finally, ladies and gentlemen, shareholders, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your support of this company's management during a particularly challenging year in which we have laid the groundwork for an exciting future that inspires us to redouble our efforts to live up to your trust. Thank you very much.

[Interpreted] You have the floor, sir. Hello. Good afternoon. Well, let me first make a comment, ladies and gentlemen of the Board. This is the second year running in which this meeting is held only via remote. Last year, I called you cows. But this year, I'm not going to delve into this. I just have a question. Are you that scared of shareholders' control? Are you that concerned? Are you the only IBEX company that holds meetings exclusively via remote? You must be hiding something. Now as to the reports regarding the 28th April event, which is, of course, the issue that has most marked the activities of Red Electrica in 2025. Well, you have held on to that panel of experts reports for dear life in which purportedly you are exonerated from all and every possible responsibility. And I have to ask again, was it that terrible for you in other Florida? Was it that terrible in the Senate? Was it that terrible in Parliament? What are you doing now? You're attacking the CNMC. They've been your main ally ever since April 28. You're looking for and analyzing all possible responsibilities and accountabilities of other electric authorities in the country. So you're alone. I don't know whether I don't know whether compounding this the is good for the company. I don't think so. I do not think it's at all good for Red Electrica for you to insist once and again, once and again that no, no, you are not accountable. You are not responsible. You are responsible. You are accountable. You are responsible. Maybe it's shared. It's shared responsibility, but it is at your feet because you are the operator. You provide electricity. I think that you might say no, no. I know that you are activating the fan, but -- but really, the facts are what they are. I'm going to read an article now. Well, not an article. I'm going to read a summary of an article that was published by El Mundo in October 2025. The electric system again suffers anomalies in September despite Red Electrica's best efforts. In other words, you, despite your strength in systems, you continue to suffer oscillations in the system. And not many weeks ago, we were about to have another outage, about to have another outage. The system was so unstable, so unstable that the system was about to plummet. It did not happen, fortunately, because that would be the end of it all in less than 1 year, have 2 blackouts of this nature. I would just like to add something else. This attitude, I think, is proof of the pudding that you see things [indiscernible] not [indiscernible] In other words, you are doing your best, but you're not aware of the fact that the system is not stable, you must be. You must be aware of that. The policy, the high penetration of renewables, which does impact the working of the system. So ladies and gentlemen, ma'am, I beg of you. I beg of you, please do not falseway to do what you did last year because I'm going to say you might be right in one of your statements. It is true. The system will only run if everyone complies with their commitments. You are essential. Of course, you are. Nobody has any doubt about this. Of course, all operators, all distributors, all companies, I agree, must do their bid. Everybody must contribute so that the grid be as stable as possible, so that the grid be as cohesive as possible for transmission purposes. But Redeia, Redeia must take a step to the front. You must guide by example. You are the main operator. And thus, it is not to be understood that you, Mrs. Corridor, continue to be at the helm of Redeia when clearly and all reports, CNMC, the Parliamentary Commission, they all, I think, point the way. Red Electrica on that day did not do as it was to have done. It did not comply. It was not an appropriate response. It was not an adequate reaction. I would say perhaps that maybe you would have wanted to provide a solution to that situation. Yes. But I beg of you, please accept the fact that you have made a mistake and that mistake resulted in a national blackout. This had never happened, never in the 40 years of life of this company, never. Now trying to have other people take the blame is understandable because you have to respond. You have to respond to your shareholders. You have to defend, of course, that the company did its best. But one thing is defending the company and another very different thing is insulting the intelligence with the Spanish people saying that you did your best. You did not do your best. You were not perfect on the job. Begin by acknowledging that. And from that point on, we will be able to advance and understand where in the responsibility lies. That was a terrible day, the day of the blackout. Thank you.

I don't think that there are any more audio-video responses or reactions. So the Secretary now is going to summarize the written statements submitted by the shareholders or their representatives.

Yes. Yes. So this is the end then. We have received all this information via remote audio, video written. We have no more requests. Thank you, ma'am. We have 2 shareholder, Roberto Gonzalez, who requests that his comments be read out during this meeting and which are to be included in the minutes. I am going to read this document. Dear Chair, dear all, I know Red Electrica España. I've known them for 25 years, a solid company, excellent workers, and let me focus. On April 28, 2025, there was something unexpected that happened, a blackout, a blackout? Well, a blackout. The information forthcoming was very little, and we've known more and more. We understand what the initial perception was, large amount of solar PV energy and very specifically an exceptionally low percentage of synchronous, nuclear, hydro and combined gas cycle. It was a sunny day, not very many resources to control transmission. This resulted in excessively high tension, and there were complications in generators that disconnected from the system and then the system fell. The entire peninsula was barest of power. And unfortunately, we have witnessed confusion. We have seen persons trying to explain that Red Electrica had nothing to do with the outage. It was everybody else's fault. Now this makes no sense because who is accountable for the grid? Who is the operator of the system? Well, it is Red Electrica España. And therefore, yes, there was a blackout and the accountable party is Red Electrica Españe. As a matter of fact, once things picked up again, Red Electrica began to reinforce with the aim of ensuring that this never happened again. Now this bolstered approach introduces higher percentages of synchronous generation. The icing on the cake was a publication in the media, a video 1 year after April 28. So embarrassing. Mrs. Corridor, please dismiss everyone and then retire. Go home. The company should return to normalcy, a normalcy, which is based on technical and economic realities. Thank you much. And now the second address, shareholder, Rafael [indiscernible] . Two questions. First question, we have heard the days before the blackout, the technical team had advised of the possibility of a blackout. These words of warning were not taken into account. Was there no communication? Second question, [indiscernible] corridor says that she applies by legislation, but why do what obsolete legislation says when we didn't have as much solar as we have now? Thank you, ma'am. This is it.

[Interpreted] Well, we have heard the questions or addresses via the platform, and we have finished these addresses, audiovideo of shareholders and representatives. And before we actually provide answers, I would like to say thank you to those of you who have participated. And thank you, I repeat, for the interest, the interest in those issues that have to do with our company. Let us share with you some seconds of corporate images, and then we will be able to respond to the comments and questions made. Now an institutional video. [Presentation]

[Interpreted] I will begin with the questions that have been posed in writing, and then we will take the audio/video comments. Now with regards Mr. Shareholder, Roberto [indiscernible] and this has to do with the 28th April event. We have always been rigorous in technical terms. We have always looked at the data that have been included in different official reports that have been presented as of April 28. So the causes of what happened that day have been clarified very clearly as rigorously, as technically as possible in view of the content of those reports. Now the most important of those reports is the European panel of Experts, which was publicized on March 20, which before have been advised of in a factual report and which fully, fully coincides with the description of the facts that chronologically took place in our grid on April 28 after 12:03. It is true that the panel of experts has taken into account numerous information, numerous data and the conclusions reached in the report are solid. It was an event that was unexpected, absolutely unforeseeable, multifactorial based on the deployment, the description of the facts, which said report includes and which are detailed exhaustively minutely and are available. Now as to the statement that because we are the TSO, we must guarantee transmission, well, yes, but with the tools available as per the law. It's not just the TSO system. The electric grid is made up and involves many, many stakeholders and many of them and all of us -- all of us and all of them are subject to strict legal guidelines, legal, of course, and technical within the technical rules and regulations, all of the information specifies what we are all mandated to comply with. Now saying that the only party accountable for any event, the only party responsible within the Spanish system is the TSOs, I think, is foregoing, if you will, that the system is made up by many, many stakeholders whose onboarding actually makes operations much more complex. And thus, we continue to uphold what these official reports uphold in turn. There was no noncompliance with any rule, with any regulation that might be placed at the feet of the operator. Therefore, the operator did not comply and therefore, no cause may be placed, as I said before, at our feet. The causes that specifically have not been included as potential causes, potential originating or triggering elements is the programming. The experts panel specifically and expressly excludes programming as root cause and reaffirms that everything was done in accordance with legislation in place. And if all of the stakeholders that at that time had to comply with technical obligations had so done, the incident of April 28, 2025, would not have happened. The reinforced programming was implemented precisely in view of the certainty that such obligations were being fulfilled in its entirety and according to the law applicable at the time. Since then, a number of regulations and technical measures have been implemented as well as others that have been requested in order to secure the supply, not just in Spain, but also in Europe. And in fact, a panel of experts expressed that in -- before an incident such as this, it was necessary to review the regulation and the operating procedures in Europe. And until uncertainty persists and until all the necessary measures have been fully implemented for the control of the system. The operator will maintain the operation as long as necessary to maintain the supply. The shareholder, Mr. Roberto Gonzalezazmasa has requested in his intervention for the chair to present her resignation to all her public positions and to resign from this decision. According to what he says, he does not request for a vote on the cessation of the chair. And therefore, this will not be cast a vote. As for the request for the Chair to resign to or her position, we must say that there are no political positions in Redeia and that every member of the Board and the workforce have worked in accordance with the applicable law. Mr. Rafael Minas also submitted a statement. And in response to his comments, I would like to respond that there was no prior incident to the blackout on April 28 that would provide some hint on what happened. This has been evidenced by all the official and technical reports that have been submitted through the last year, and it is in particular worth mentioning the one published on March 20 by the European panel of Experts. We make reference to this report because it was trusted by 49 European technicians from many institutions, regulators, from the association of regulators, from different TSOs, from a number of institutions that signed this report and concluded the causes and the timetable and the combination of circumstances that led to this blackout. And these reports were taken into the consideration along with some data that were analyzed and given the circumstances of the days prior of the electric system, we can say that we know that the system operates in fractions of seconds so that it changes in very short periods of time. And nothing in the system in the minutes or days prior to the blackout provide any relevant information that could help us or hint what would happen on April 28. And as I said, was the result of a number of factors that were caused by oscillations, malfunctions in plants, a disconnection from the dispersed PV system, undue connections to the grid when the pensions were in line and noncompliance by agents who were obliged to do so under the applicable law at the time. Evidently, we cannot understand that some media claim in a biased way, a series of conversations between the control centers from the various operators. These conversations took place in a collaboration environment, in a trusted environment. They share information and share impressions on the functioning operation of the system. And so we cannot say or argue that private conversations could provide the data that is necessary for the analysis of this incident. Therefore, and for the ease of mind of all shareholders and of Mr. Rafael, the electric system is not undergoing any type of alteration and there was no previous warning. And as for the second part of this intervention, evidently, the system has changed significantly in the last few years, and this is why the operator is submitting continued improvement so that we can better operate in a more complex environment. This is part of our road map. I mentioned that earlier, and this is what we're doing also from a regulatory point of view. We have reinforced the function of the system operator and a new set of competencies have been allocated so as to ensure that all security and safety requirements are met. I think that with this, we can conclude the written questions. And regarding the audio and video statement by Mr. [indiscernible], I will not go into his personal opinions. But I must admit that this meeting has taken place virtually, as I mentioned at the beginning, but we are not the only listed company that does so. This meeting has been held taking into consideration all the legal requirements. It has been duly convened with the necessary quorum, and this is foreseen by law. We also allow for the participation of all shareholders, and we uphold all their rights. I will not repeat myself because I have already mentioned what happened on April 28. The facts are clear. What happened is all included in audited reports, rigorous reports that are data based that have been collected from the Spanish and European institutions. They are backed by science and the opinions that have been mentioned throughout the years. These are all hypothesis or assumptions that have been debunked by science. And -- this was a multifactorial event. It was unpredictable and the technical report did not express any noncompliance by the system operator in any of its duty, and that is why we are -- we feel supported to maintain our opinion before this shareholders' meeting and the public in general. The incidents that take place in the electrical system are various. All [indiscernible] take place in 20 millisecond periods and our obligation is to propose the necessary measures to have a control of the system in a much more efficient way. And this would be the case if all the stakeholders could certify that they've fulfilled their obligations as we have done. We have shown that in the technical reports, which in turn have mentioned that we did not reach in reaching our obligations. This is not the case for other stakeholders, and that is why I would like to ratify that Red Electrica did not fail. Its teams did not fail and that the teams fulfilled their obligations strictly. Regarding my leadership in this company, it's been backed by the corresponding bodies and by this Board barely a year ago, and that is why I feel like I have all the necessary backing to maintain my position as the leader of this company. I think that with this, we finalized all the questions and statements made by the shareholders. And now I will give the floor to the Secretary because we need to read the proposal for agreement. And of course, we will now read all the items regarding the agenda. The Chair has already indicated the full text of the proposed resolutions to be submitted for approval and informational items in the agenda of this meeting is contained in the documentation made available to the shareholders.

[Interpreted] Thank you, Carlos. Once the presentation of the proposed resolutions submitted for approval at the general meeting has concluded, the Secretary shall briefly report on informative items on the meeting's agenda. Item 10, information on the annual corporate governance report of Redeia Corporacion for the 2025 fiscal year. This report was approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting on February 24, 2026, and communicated to the National Securities Market Commission and other relevant information on February 26, 2026. This report, which has been prepared in free form for you, together with the information regarding the statistical annex required by Circular 3 bar 2021 of September 28 from the National Securities Market Commission contains an initial executive summary that includes the most relevant information on the company's ownership structure, the General Shareholders' Meeting, the Board of Directors and its committees and is structured into 10 different sections. Next, as the Chair -- at the Chair's direction in compliance with the of good governance for listed company inform you that as set forth in the annual corporate governance report, the company has complied in 2025 with all the applicable recommendation of the aforementioned code with the following exceptions. Recommendation # 1 has not been complied with, which suggests that the articles of incorporation of listed companies should not limit the maximum number of votes that a single shareholder may cast. However, the report itself explains that all the shareholder limitations set forth in Article 5 and 14 and it is sole additional provision of the articles of incorporation are a reproduction of the legal regime established by the electricity sector law applicable to the company. Recommendation #48 has not been complied with. It suggests that large cap companies have separate nomination and compensation committees. And this is because the Board of Directors has not deem such a separation appropriate given the Board's small size compared to other large cap companies and also because it is considered that a single committee is achieving the same results and fully fulfilling all the functions of the law and the coach recommendations attribute separately to one committee and the other. And with the exception, likewise, of recommendation 62, which has been complied with partially since although the recommendation of the Executive Director retain ownership of the shares received as part of his or her annual variable compensation for the 3 years is met. However, with regard to his or her multiyear variable compensation, given the plan's long duration, which ended on December 31, 2025, no additional commitment was established for the Executive Director to retain ownership of the shares after the plan's conclusion. I would also like to inform you that the annual corporate governance report is available in Spanish and English on the company's website in the section containing the general meeting documentation made available to all of you. Item 11 on the agenda, information to the general meeting on Redeia's 2026-2029 sustainability plan. The company's Board of Directors at a meeting held on February 24, 2026, approved the sustainability plan for 2026, 2029. This plan consists of 2 major ambitions, 7 strategic vectors and 5 levers with the aim of contributing to the creation of the energy model of the future and generating a positive impact on people. the socioeconomic development of the regions and nature. The summary of Redeia's 2026 -2029 sustainability plan is available in Spanish and English on the company's website in the section containing the general meeting documentation made available to all of you. Well, now that the Secretary has read aloud the key points of the proposed resolutions on the agenda submitted for approval at this general meeting, I hereby inform you that the appears for shareholders present and represented to exercise their right to vote via the online attendance platform regarding those agenda items set forth in the notice of meeting has now ended. Next, we will report on the results of the votes on the proposals submitted to this general meeting. Now the Secretary will address the voting on the proposed resolutions that the Board of Directors is submitting to the meeting. I would like to inform you that each proposed resolution has been put to a separate vote by all of you in accordance with the items and sections of the meeting's agenda to which I referred earlier. Since the majority of shareholders present or represented have raised no objections, all proposed resolutions are deemed to have been read in full.

The notary will now proceed to authenticate the minutes of this general meeting, which will be made available in the coming days to all the shareholders who wish to request them. And prior to adjourn this meeting, which has been certified as a sustainable event pursuant to ISO 2012, allow me to make -- to share a thought with you. The fiscal year we have reviewed today has been marked by a challenging environment and by events that it has once again tested the resilience of the power system, in particular, the incident of April 28, which has had an enormous impact on the countries and on millions of citizens, whom we have kept in mind at all times. That days and always Red Electrica fulfilled its duty before, during and after the blackout as attested to in all official reports. All of the company's teams acted with professionalism, responsibility, transparency and institutional coordination, applying regulations and prioritizing system safety at all times. We facilitated a rapid restoration of power. And through a rigorous analysis of the data, we contributed to clarify the causes and to defining the necessary measures to prevent this from happening again. Today, far from our model being called into question, new functions are being entrusted to the system operator, and we are now equipped with more tools to strengthen the security of the electric system. This is the best demonstration of trust in the technical soundness of this company and the accumulated experience and in the strength provided by the TSO model to operate an increasingly complex system and to ensure the coherent and orderly development of the transmission grid that the country needs for its progress and growth. With this support, we will continue to move forward with determination through the most ambitious investment plan in the company's history to execute our strategy and support the electrification of the economy. We will strengthen the resilience of our infrastructure and listen to local communities to ensure that this transformation is fair and inclusive. We will do so as always, by preserving environment, biodiversity, acting with neutrality, independence, efficiency and safety and always using sustainability as the guiding framework for each and every strategic decision. All of this will be possible, thanks to a team that demonstrates its commitment, effort and dedication to public service every day and with the guidance of a fully engaged Board of Directors, which applies best practices in corporate governance and the values of our code of ethics, respect, integrity and sustainability. I would also like to thank the technical staff that has made this meeting possible. And to all of you, ladies and gentlemen, shareholders, I thank you for your trust and support. And with this commitment. The Ordinary General Meeting of Redeia Corporion S.A. for the 2025 fiscal year is hereby adjourned. Thank you, and good day, everyone.
