LOGO    IBERDROLA has become one of the largest electricity companies in the world having last Monday completed the transaction with ScottishPower for €17.1 billion, one of the biggest in Spanish corporate history. With an enterprise value of more than €67 billion, the combination of the two companies creates a platform for future growth in Europe and the Americas.
  

 

During the first quarter of the year, IBERDROLA has continued the strategy initiated in 2001 that has enabled it to successfully face this large-scale operation in record time. Net profit rose 13.6% to €458.2 million, in a difficult context of low electricity prices and lower energy demand in Spain.

  

 

Completion of the IBERDROLA-ScottishPower transaction, valued at €17.1 billion and announced in November 2006, is a milestone in the Company’s 100-year history. It creates a world electricity giant, leader in renewable energy and an enterprise value of more than €67 billion.

  

 

This operation, in line with the strategy drawn up by IBERDROLA last October for the period 2007-09, will enable the group to accelerate planned growth, offer new long-term business opportunities, diversify risk and maintain financial strength with a view to creating value for shareholders.

  

 

The operation, which is among the largest in Spanish business history, has been strongly endorsed by shareholders of both companies – 99.5% at the IBERDROLA Shareholders Meeting and 97.6% at the ScottishPower EGM – as well as by the markets. Between 27 November 2006 and April 23 more than €4 billion in value was created.

  

 

LOGO

  

 

The geographical footprint of IBERDROLA and ScottishPower is now of significant proportions, creating an Atlantic platform. It has operations in Spain, the UK, the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Greece, Portugal, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Guatemala, Bolivia and Chile. The group also has a substantial project pipeline that will enable it to continue growing in the future.

 

  Ø Communications


LOGO    The combined group has a total installed capacity of around 40,000 megawatts (MW) compared with the 30,500 MW of IBERDROLA alone (a rise of 28%). Of this new capacity, 32,500 MW relates to conventional generation, an increase of 25% over IBERDROLA’s current level of 26,000 MW.
  

 

The new integrated group will consolidate IBERDROLA’s world leadership in renewable energy, especially in wind power. Added to the more than 4,500 MW of IBERDROLA are over 2,000 MW from ScottishPower, mostly from U.S. company PPM, increasing capacity by 44% to 6,562 MW.

  

 

The combined project pipeline of IBERDROLA and ScottishPower in renewable energy stands at 37,675 MW: approximately 6,000 MW are in Spain and another 6,000 MW in the UK, nearly 5,400 MW in the rest of Europe, more than 19,200 MW in the United States, 400 MW in Latin America, and 500 MW in the rest of the world.

  

 

The new Group has a significantly larger consumer base, with the 3.3 million customers of ScottishPower adding to the 18.4 million of IBERDROLA to total 21.7 million in Europe and the Americas, a rise of 18%.

  

 

The Company now has 2.7 billion cubic metres of gas storage capacity in the UK and the United States, with significant expansion potential.

  

 

LOGO

  

 

The integration of IBERDROLA and ScottishPower also represents a strengthening of the commitment of both companies with shareholders, customers, employees and communities where they operate, thanks to their powerful business platform. The Group is a leader in renewable energy, with a balanced generation mix, low dependence on foreign supplies, excellent efficiency levels and financially sound.

  

 

Net profit rose 13.6% in the first quarter

  

 

IBERDROLA’s strategic decision to invest in basic energy, and its progressive international expansion, have once again been reflected in results for the first quarter of 2007 with a double digit rise in net profit (13.6%) to €458.2 million, in line with expectations for the year as a whole.

  

 

In a difficult context in Spain, with falling energy prices (-41%) and modest growth in electricity demand (1.8%), the Company has succeeded in increasing gross operating profit (EBITDA) by 2.9% €1,087.1 million.

  

 

IBERDROLA has assigned the bulk of investments over the past few years to increasing electricity production capacity via combined cycles and wind farms. Over the past 12 months it has started up 2,607 megawatts (MW) to achieve

  Ø Communications


LOGO    total capacity of 30,502 MW at March 31, of which 26,084 MW was in Spain (85.2% of the total).
  

 

The IBERDROLA group has increased output in the first three months of the year by 6.9% to 24,752 million kWh, as a result of new capacity. In Spain, the Company generated 18,208 million kWh in the period, a rise of 2.5% over the same period of 2006.

  

 

LOGO

  

 

Increased output from clean energy technology has allowed IBERDROLA to substantially reduce its emissions during the period, both at Group level (24.2% less from 247 grammes of CO2 per kWh to 188 grammes) and in Spain (37.1% lower from 212 grammes of CO2 per kWh to 133 grammes, a third the level for the rest of the sector of 378 grammes. As a result, emission free production came to 76% of the total.

  

 

These figures again underline that new investments in generation have not only allowed IBERDROLA to balance and diversify its production mix, placing a limit on traditional technologies, but also to continue contributing to meeting the goals of the Kyoto protocol, to which it is firmly committed.

  

 

World leadership in wind power. The Company has continued to strengthen its leadership in renewable energy with new installations and a number of transactions outside Spain in the first three months of the year.

  

 

LOGO

  

 

The most significant of these was the acquisition of CPV Wind Ventures LLC of the United States por €55 million, in line with IBERDROLA’s plans to increase its presence in the wind power market in this country where it already has a project pipeline of 8,500 MW. It also signed an agreement in Italy with API Group to develop wind farms, increased its stake in Greek company Rokas to 52.7% and started work on two wind farms in France.

  

 

The Company incorporated 638 MW in new wind power capacity over the past 12 months, to a total of 4,552 MW, an increase of 16.3% over the 3,914 MW in

  Ø Communications


   March 2006. Of total installed capacity, 4,210 MW relates to wind power – 459 MW outside Spain – and 342 to mini hydro plants.
  

 

Renewable energy plants achieved a production of 2,725 million kWh in the first three months (+21%), accounting for 11% of total output, with a significant (23.2%) increase in wind power to 2,578 million kWh.

  

 

IBERDROLA envisages renewable energy capacity of 7,000 MW on stream in 2009, almost entirely wind power, and more than 10,000 MW in 2011.

  

 

The largest combined cycle operator in Spain. Consistent with its focus on clean energy, IBERDROLA continues to build combined cycle gas plants in Spain and manages a total installed capacity of 5,600 MW. It has plans to bring the Castellón 4 combined cycle on stream this year with installed capacity of 800 MW.

LOGO    In this context, a contract was signed recently to acquire the site for IBERDROLA’S first combined cycle plant in Portugal (Figueira da Foz), with a capacity of 850 MW and which could start up operations in 2009.
  

 

At the same time, and meeting strategic goals of starting up power stations capable of covering increased demand, IBERDROLA has received approval from the Environment Ministry for two hydroelectric plants: a new complex at La Muela (Valencia) to double its capacity to 630 MW and a 175 MW expansion of the San Esteban plant in the Sil basin.

  

 

Increase in international contribution First quarter results were supported substantially by the fruits of investments in business outside Spain, where EBITDA rose 41% to €200.5 million.

  

 

Electricity production in Latin America rose 21.5% over the same period of 2006 to 6,544 million kWh (26.4% of Group total), with a significant contribution from combined cycles which generated 22.4% more to 6,161 million kWh

Operating highlights

 

 

In the first quarter of 2007, IBERDROLA reached a new Group production record, with production rising by 6.9% to 24,752 GWh. This was achieved with a mix of low cost and cleaner generation, which allowed CO2 emissions to fall by 24.2%.

In Spain, IBERDROLA saw growth in production of 2.5%, while overall system production in Spain fell by 0.5%. Emissions in Spain were down 37.1%, to 133 gr/kWh, a third of the rest of the sector (378 gr/kWh). Other highlights include:

 

   

103.7% increase in hydroelectric production to 5,598 GWh and a 23.2% increase in wind production to 2,578 GWh (274 GWh international).

 

   

Market environment during the first quarter of 2007 was marked by low energy prices (-41%) and very mild winter temperatures which led to a moderate increase in domestic demand (+1.8%).

 

 

In this challenging scenario of low prices and moderate increase of demand, Operating Profit improved in both gross terms (EBITDA +2.9%) and net terms (EBIT +0.8%).

 

   

Domestic Energy Business EBITDA falls by -7.6%. Distribution business growth by 95%, what offsets the falls in Generation (-33.1%) and Renewables (-12.4%), reflecting the downward trend of pool prices. In the case of Generation, lower prices have been compensated with a fall in Procurements due to a cleaner generation mix (76% of non-pollutant technologies), and lower regulatory impacts.

 

   

International and Engineering and Non Energy business achive strong growths at EBITDA level, offsetting the falls in Generation and Renewables:

 

   

International: EBITDA up 41.1% to 200.5 million euros, thanks primarily to the good development of business in Mexico and Brazil. The generation business saw an increase in production of 21.5%. The distribution business recorded an increase of 6.2% in energy distributed. In addition, it should be mentioned that the change in the exchange rate between the Brazilian Real and the Dollar in the period resulted in an effect of about-13.3 million euros.

 

   

Engineering and Non-Energy Businesses increased their EBITDA by 40.0% to 122.5 million euros, basically boosted by the results of Iberdrola Inmobiliaria.

 

 

Net Profit totalled 458.2 million euros, an increase of 13.6%, in line with the expectations of double digit growth contemplated for the full 2007 fiscal year.

Profit before taxes is up by 4.7%, slightly improving the trend followed at the operating level. The effective tax rate in 2007 has been normalized in the 29.3%, according to current tax rules, compare to 35.1% for the same period of 2006.

 

 

On 29 and 30 March of this year, a broad majority of the shareholders in both companies approved the merger (99.4% at Iberdrola and 97.6% at ScottishPower). The operation is effective from 23 April, after approval by the Sessions Court in Edinburgh, and has been carried out under the framework of what is known as Scheme of Arrangement in British law, pursuant to Section 425 of the Companies Act in Great Britain.

LOGO

 

Year on year, the installed capacity at the close of the first quarter of 2007 is 16.3% greater than that at the close of the same period of 2006.

LOGO

IBERDROLA has a portfolio of projects of almost 19,000 MW, the result of the development of our own projects and operations undertaken in the context of renewable energy outside of Spain.

Spain

The new capacity installed in Spain during the first quarter of 2007 totalled 98 MW, which breaks down as follows: Castilla y León 61 MW, Andalusia 15 MW, Region of Murcia 10 MW, Castilla - La Mancha 9 MW and La Rioja 3 MW.

United States

The United States have become one of the most important markets for developing IBERDROLA’s objectives in the area of renewable energy. The Company has 26 MW in operation, which consists of the wind farm at Locust Ridge coming from the acquisition of Community Energy, and a portfolio of projects that will be close to 8,500 MW in the first half of 2007, once they are included the MW coming from recent acquisitions. IBERDROLA already has a permanent office in the State of Pennsylvania.

To strengthen its portfolio of projects in the country, IBERDROLA has undertaken various operations. The highlights are as follows:

 

 

Acquisition of the US wind company CPV Wind Ventures. IBERDROLA has reached an agreement to acquire, for 55 million euros, 100% of the US company CPV Wind Ventures LLC, headquartered in Silver Spring (Maryland), as part of the Company’s focus on international expansion and its interest in increasing its presence in the wind market in the United States. CPV Wind Ventures LLC has a portfolio of projects of 3,500 MW of wind power in 15 states in the US, with the construction of the first wind farms planned for next year. With this in mind, this company has already signed an agreement with General Electric to supply turbines beginning in 2008.

 

 

Agreement with Gamesa to purchase wind farms in the US. This agreement provides for the acquisition of wind installations with about 500 MW of power that Gamesa will bring on line before the end of 2009. Of these, 300 MW are firm commitments, while the remaining 200 MW will be subject to a right of purchase. The other 500 MW would correspond to the acquisition of developments under way.

 

 

Acquisition in the US of Community Energy (CEI), which has a portfolio of projects of 2,000 MW of wind power in various coastal zones of

the country in the initial study phase, an additional 200 MW are in an advanced stage of development. CEI has sales of more than 3,000 GWh of wind power, 100,000 residential customers and commercial agreements with about 20 municipal and private electricity companies. The US company has had two wind farms in operation since the end of 2005: Jersey-Atlantic (7.5 MW) and Bear Creek (24 MW).

 

 

Acquisition in the US of MREC Partners and its participation Midwest Renewable Energy Projects. The portfolio of projects of the two companies totals 1,600 MW of wind power located in various zones of the Midwest of the US. Of this total, 400 MW are in an advanced phase of development and 1,200 MW are in the initial study phase with a high probability of approval.

Greece

The Alogorachis wind farm has been brought on line through its acquisition to Gamesa, and the Modi Ampliación wind farm through Rokas has been concluded, adding a total of 18 new MW. This gives IBERDROLA 210 MW in operation in the country. IBERDROLA is a strategic partner of the principal promoter and producer of wind energy in Greece, Rokas, in which it has a 52.7% interest.

Agreement with the Rokas family

During the first quarter of 2007, IBERDROLA, through its renewable energies subsidiary, has reached a new agreement with the Rokas family to promote the development of the Rokas Group, and gives another indication of the clear commitment the Company has to this market. Under the terms of the agreement:

 

 

The Rokas family will transfer to IBERDROLA all of the preferred non-voting shares it holds, directly or indirectly, in the Rokas Group (about 45% of the existing shares) for about 32 million euros.

 

 

The agreement reached in December 2004 is replaced by this, subject to the approval by Greek competition authorities. After the acquisition in the market of an additional 2.8% of the capital share, for 12.5 million euros, IBERDROLA increases its participation in Rokas up to 52.7%

In addition, the Rokas family, after reaching an agreement with various financial entities for sale of the majority of its common shares in the Rokas Group (9.82% of the capital), has proceeded to the sale of those shares. IBERDROLA has consented to this transaction, renouncing to its preferred acquisition right.

More than 100 MW of power are planned for installation in 2007, as a result of the development of the most advanced projects of Perfect Wind and Gamesa. To reinforce its pipeline in the country, IBERDROLA acquired french company Perfect Wind, considered as one of the companies with larger development potential in our neighbour country, with a pipeline of 600 MW, 17 MW currently in operation and 78 MW corresponding to projects in an advanced stage of development.

Poland

The Kisielice wind farm (41 MW) is already in operation. This is IBERDROLA’s first installed capacity in Poland. This farm (27 1.5 MW General Electric 1.5 SL turbines) is the first Project in the portfolio acquired from Eternegy Polska in September of 2005 to be built and brought on line. When the Malbork farm (18 MW) is brought on line next, IBERDROLA will be one of the main wind generators in Poland. In addition, another 141 MW, now at an advanced stage of development, will be put into service between 2007 and 2008.

Germany

34 MW have been brought on line, as provided for in the agreement reached with Gamesa at the end of 2005. When put into service, Iberenova will be part of the German wind market, which is the most developed in the world, with more than 20,000 MW installed. The portfolio of projects totalls 47 MW.

United Kingdom

IBERDROLA is developing its own projects, with potential to reach 200 MW. In addition, the acquisition of two projects, Darracott y Clachan Flats (both in the final stage of development, totalling 21 MW) will permit IBERDROLA to have its first MWs in operation on the British market during 2007.

solar resources for the projects have been installed in Sevilla, Ciudad Real, Badajoz and Albacete. The portfolio of three projects totals 650 MW of power. They are being developed in Extremadura, Castilla y León, Andalucía, Castilla - La Mancha, Murcia, Madrid and Aragón. During the first quarter of 2007, work has begun on the first 50 MW plant in Puertollano.

Photovoltaic energy

The priority here is to develop our own portfolio within IBERDROLA’s combined cycle installations and nuclear plants. IBERDROLA currently has an advanced portfolio of 30 MW in Spain. IBERDROLA, together with a group of partners, has set up the company Global Solar Energy, whose purpose is to promote a photovoltaic power installation of 10 MW in Murcia. Study of the possibility of other projects using this technology in some of our generation facilities has also begun, so that we can have a presence in the development of this source of renewable energy. Internationally, during the first quarter of 2007 a Greek facility (Rokas) of 0.17 MW was added.

Biomass

The development of projects will be carried out very selectively, while always ensuring the long-term supply of raw materials. IBERDROLA plans to install three forest biomass plants in Spain for a total of 24 MW, located in the municipalities of Somozas (La Coruña), Archidona (Málaga) and Corduente (Guadalajara).

In February of 2007, IBERDROLA began construction of the Corduente (Guadalajara) plant, the first of the Company’s plants in Spain that will use forest residue to generate energy, after having undertaken the appropriate environmental and viability studies and receiving the approval of the competent authorities (the regional government of Castilla-La Mancha and the municipal government of the city). The Company’s new renewable energies plant there, which should be brought on line within 18 months, is located outside Alto Tajo Natural Park. With installed capacity of 2 MW, the plan calls for the use of about 20,000 tonnes of forest residue per year.

Marine energy

IBERDROLA plans to install the first pilot wave energy plant in Europe in the municipality of Santoña (Cantabria). The project will be implemented in two phases. The first will be completed with the installation of a 40 kW buoy, and the second phase will analyse the increase in power of the plant to a total of 1.35 MW.

Special Regime Mini-hydroelectric

IBERDROLA has a domestic portfolio of 186 MW and an international portfolio of 100 MW. During the first quarter of 2007, the installation of the plant at La Fuensanta was completed. The plant is 8.84 MW and is located in Albacete.

2. DISTRIBUTION

2.1 Spain

At closing of the first quarter of 2007, IBERDROLA had 10 million customers in Spain, and the total energy distributed in the network was 26,756 GWh, an increase of 2.0% compared with the corresponding previous period. 83% of the energy (22,125 GWh) is distributed at market rates.

2.2. Latin America

At closing of the first quarter of 2007, IBERDROLA had more than 8.5 million customers in the region, and the total energy distributed in the network was 7,254 GWh, an increase of 6.2% compared with the corresponding previous period.

3. SUPPLY

3.1 Electricity

 

 

Spanish business: eligible electricity customers

Energy sold in this market totalled 1,097 GWh, down -66.2% compared to the previous period of 2006, although the figure for energy sold is 30% higher than that of the 4th quarter of 2006, as a result of current market conditions.

3.2 Gas

Procurements

In the first quarter of 2007, IBERDROLA provided 14% of the total amount of gas consumed on the deregulated market. The winter season was very mild, and since production in the combined cycle plants was reduced because of hydroelectric power and increased wind production, there was a reduction of 5% in domestic demand for gas compared with the same period in 2006. In this environment, IBERDROLA has optimised its participation in the gas market with supply to the combined cycle plants, sales to customers, and domestic and international trading activities, all thanks to the flexibility of its portfolio of procurements contracts.

IBERDROLA ended the period with a global supply portfolio of 16 bcm per annum, of which 7 bcm per annum cover its procurement requirements in Spain and 9 bcm per annum its requirements in Mexico and Brazil.

The most significant gas procurement transactions in the period were the following:

 

 

Regular shipments of LNG are received through the contracts signed with ENI, GNA, SONATRACH, NIGERIA LNG and SNOHVIT at the regasification plants at Bilbao, Huelva y Sagunto, three logistic centres around the peninsula that guarantee supply. The gas received originates in Algeria, Nigeria, Libya, Egypt and Qatar, well diversified sources to ensure supply.

 

First Quarter 2007 financial results    15


LOGO

 

 

Extraction of gas reserves from the subterranean storage capacity at Gaviota (Vizcaya) and Serrablo (Huesca) to adjust supply to demand at all times, while always fulfilling the winter operation plan put into place by the Ministry for Industry and with the obligation of maintaining minimum security reserves.

 

 

Export to France through the Euskadour international gas pipeline. IBERDROLA was the first company to export gas through Euskadour after it came into service in June 2006.

 

 

During the period, for the purpose of optimising the flexibility of its gas resources, the Company undertook various international LNG trading operations.

 

 

The Company doubled its reserve capacity at the Bahía de Bizkaia Gas (BBG) regasificiation plant at the port of Bilbao, which is the principal operator at that terminal.

 

 

Additional subterranean storage capacity was contracted in France to provide supply-demand coverage for supply activities in that country and for carrying out seasonal price arbitrage.

Infrastructures

IBERDROLA continues moving forward with the development of the Sagunto regasification plant (Saggas, 30% owned by IBERDROLA), closing an agreement with the EIB at the end of March to finance its capacity expansion. This expansion will increase the plant’s capacity by 50%. In addition, development of expansion by 50% of Bahia Bizkaia Gas (25% owned by IBERDROLA) continues. During this quarter, the application for administrative authorisation for the expansion was submitted.

With respect to Medgaz, company that will construct the direct undersea gas pipeline between Algeria and Spain with an initial capacity of 8 bcma, IBERDROLA finalised an increase in its participation in the company from 12% to 20% in January 2007. The final investment decision on the project was adopted in December 2006, ensuring that IBERDROLA will receive 1.6 bcm annually beginning in 2009.

The Company has also continued its development of natural gas distribution in various municipalities in the Madrid, Valencia and Murcia regions. In this respect, of special relevance is the recent decision to grant IBERDROLA, as the main gas distributor in the Valencia region, the GasBenidorm Distribution Authorisation, the only municipality on the Levante coast whose current level of gasification is practically nil.

Supply

As a continuation of the major supply of gas carried out in 2006, in the first quarter of 2007 IBERDROLA increased sales of gas to high-pressure industrial customers, whose prices will be completely deregulated this coming 1 July. This will significantly increase the volumes to be supplied both this year and in 2008.

In addition, in the first quarter, IBERDROLA Gas Plan was launched. This is a gas sales campaign in the residential sector focussed on maximising profitability for the company and added value for the customer by including a series of services, such as maintaining gas installations in homes. At the end of the first quarter, IBERDROLA had a total of 153,000 gas sales contracts with end customers.

4. NON-ENERGY BUSINESSES

The most significant events for the period in terms of regulation have been the following:

IBERDROLA and Endesa have agreed to carry out five energy auctions jointly to comply with Royal Decree 1634/2006

IBERDROLA and Endesa have agreed to carry out five energy auctions jointly to comply with Royal Decree 1634/2006, which obliges both companies to carry out primary energy auctions as a mechanism to aid development of the electricity market in Spain

The total volume auctioned off will reach 14.9 million MWh, distributed over a series of five auctions that will begin in June of this year and be held every three months until June 2008. To further this initiative, the two companies have prepared a plan of action in order to give notice of the process to all potential interested parties in Spain and in the rest of Europe.

Specifically, a Web page (www.endesa-iberdrola-vpp.com) has been launched in Spanish and in English, comprising a public area with basic information on the primary energy issues process - known on the international market as Virtual Power Plant Auctions, VPP - and another restricted area for companies interested in the process, which must register in order to be able to take part in the auctions and have access to the relevant information.

Regulation of distribution company bilateral contracts for supplies at tariff (OM ITC/400/2007)

Royal Decree-Law 3/2006 established a mechanism for assimilation to physical bilateral contracts, covering matching power sales and acquisition amounts on the electricity market made by parties belonging to the same business group.

Now, with the passing of OM ITC/400/2007, which governs this type of bilateral contracts, the assimilation method under Royal Decree-Law 3/2006 has become void and only Article 2 thereof, on deduction of the value of the

emission rights allocated free to generating facilities, remains in effect.

The Ministerial Order’s Explanation of Reasons makes reference to the aforesaid provision’s loss of effectiveness. It expressly notes: “Accordingly, with the effectiveness of the present provision, the rules whereby distribution companies trade in electric power through bilateral contracts with physical delivery are understood to be implemented for the purposes provided for in Article 1, Section 1 of Royal Decree-Law 3/2006”.

In this regard, OMEL announced on the 27th of February that as of the second intraday session on that date, assimilation of Royal Decree-Law 3/2006 would no longer be carried out.

7. IBERDROLA - SCOTTISH POWER INTEGRATION

On 27 November 2006, the board of directors of Iberdrola and ScottishPower, meeting in Madrid and Glasgow, respectively, reached an agreement on the terms of an offer by Iberdrola on the entire share capital of ScottishPower.

The transaction has been carried out under what is known under British law as a Scheme of Arrangement, in accordance with Rule 425 of the British Companies Act, with its approval by the Edinburgh Court of Sessions effective dated 23 April 2007 and its subsequent application for registration at Scotland’s Companies House.

Terms of the agreement

Pursuant to the terms of the agreement reached with ScottishPower, Iberdrola is acquiring part of the ordinary shares of ScottishPower by paying consideration in cash and loan notes. The rest of the ordinary shares of ScottishPower are being acquired by Iberdrola through the delivery of new-issue ordinary Iberdrola shares as resolved by the company General Shareholders Meeting held on 29 March 2007.

The financial impact of such terms for ScottishPower shareholders is equivalent to receiving 400 pence of sterling pound in cash and 0.1646 new Iberdrola shares (valued at the close of business on 27 November 2006 at 365 pence of sterling pound) for each of their stocks. In turn, the financial impact for holders of ScottishPower ADS’s is equivalent to receiving 1,600 pence of sterling pound and 0.6584 newly created Iberdrola ADSs (the underlying investment for each Iberdrola ADS will be one new Iberdrola share).

In addition, on 27 April 2007, ScottishPower will make payment of an extraordinary dividend of 12 pence of sterling pound per share (48 pence of sterling pound in the case of ADS).

Considering the IBERDROLA stock closing price on 27 November 2006 of Euros 32.75 and an exchange rate of 1.4755 euros to 1 pound sterling, under the terms of the agreement the value of each share of ScottishPower is 777 pence of sterling pound (including the special dividend of 12 pence of sterling pound that ScottishPower will pay its shareholders), whereby the valuation of this company would reach on the order of € 17,100 million. To meet the consideration in stock, IBERDROLA will have issued approximately 263 million new shares, whereby the former ScottishPower shareholders will receive shares representing over 20% of the share capital of IBERDROLA after completion of the capital increase.

Strategic sense and creation of value

Finalisation of the deal with ScottishPower comes after a period of five years of strong organic growth by the Company and creation of value for the shareholders of Iberdrola, thanks to the achievement of the 2001-2006 Strategic Plan.

The friendly takeover proposed has met all the criteria stipulated for non-organic growth in the 2007-2009 Strategic Plan, and will enable moving ahead with the objectives set in that strategy. The basic principles of action are growth, internationalisation, and efficiency, all with the ultimate goal of achieving greater profitability ratios for Iberdrola.

From the strategic point of view, Iberdrola believes that the transaction is attractive and will allow for the creation of one of the leaders on the European energy market, with a broad geographical presence and a strong platform that will make futue growth possible.

The transaction will not only bolster the internationalisation of Iberdrola, but will also consolidate the Company as one of the leaders on the global renewable energy market.

Iberdrola has obtained financing in the amount of 7,655 million pounds sterling from a group of 27 top financial institutions to finance the cash component of the consideration and to refinance certain elements of ScottishPower’s existing debt.

 

 

A new energy leader

All of the foregoing means that integration of both companies will give rise to one of the largest European power company in terms of enterprise value. Finally, this integration will allow for creation of a new, more profitable, more solid, more balanced company with a greater focus on global growth.

Explanation of adjustments

        

 

A This adjustment factors in the impact of the allocation of part of the SCOTTISH POWER acquisition price for the fair value of its tangible fixed assets, representing a total of 10,301 million euros, net of depreciation in 2006.

 

B This adjustment factors in the goodwill generated through the acquisition of SCOTTISH POWER for 5,011 million euros and the allocation of part of the SCOTTISH POWER acquisition price for the fair value of its intangible assets, representing a total of 1,429 million euros.

 

C This adjustment factors in accrued interest on the bank financing taken out by IBERDROLA in connection with the acquisition of SCOTTISH POWER.

 

D Primarily tax effects for the other adjustments.

 

E This adjustment factors in the write-off of SCOTTISH POWER capital as a result of the pro forma consolidation process, giving a negative amount of 922 million euros, and the capital increase of 737 million euros carried out by IBERDROLA in connection with the acquisition.

 

F This adjustment factors in the issue premium to be obtained by IBERDROLA as a result of the abovementioned capital increase, totaling 7,313 million euros, net of the write-off of SCOTTISH POWER reserves as a result of the consolidation. This also includes the impact of the adjustment indicated in Section I below on the balance sheet.

 

G This adjustment factors in the bank financing taken out by IBERDROLA to pay for the acquisition.

 

H This adjustment factors in the impact on depreciation for the year of the allocation of part of the SCOTTISH POWER acquisition price for the fair value of its net assets.

 

I On 24 May 2005, SCOTTISH POWER considered that its equity interest in PacifiCorp was compliant with the conditions set out under IFRS 5: “Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations” for its consideration as held for the sale; the main implications of the application of this standard on SCOTTISH POWER’s financial information were as follows:

 

   

The transfer of each one of the sections from the profit and loss account over to only one line, recorded under “Earnings for the year from discontinued operations”.

 

   

Assets held for sale are valued at the lower of their book value or their fair value, less the costs required for their disposal. If the latter value is lower, the difference is booked against “Earnings for the year from discontinued operations”.

The effective sale took place on 20 March 2006. As a result, the pro forma balance sheet does not include the equity interest in PacifiCorp. On the sale side, and for this report to be more representative of the Group resulting from IBERDROLA’s acquisition of SCOTTISH POWER, within the initial SCOTTISH POWER balances used to calculate the PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION 1,317 million euros have been reclassified on the balance sheet, with this amount recorded as income under “Earnings for the year from discontinued operations” over the period from 1 October 2005 to 30 September 2006.

1. PRODUCTION: SPAIN

Group’s net production in Spain showed growth of 2.5% in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period during the previous fiscal year, reaching 18,208 GWh. It is important to emphasise that this increase in production by IBERDROLA was achieved during a quarter in which total net production by the Spanish electricity system overall has shown a drop of -0.5%. IBERDROLA has produced more than the system, and has moreover done so with a cleaner generation mix, reducing emissions by -37.1%:

 

 

Hydroelectric production rose by 113.3%, in an increasingly hydroelectric environment where IBERDROLA has also carried out active management of existing reserves, which, together with the flexibility of the generation facilities, has allowed for more efficient management of the 55.3% increase experienced by hydroelectric production during the period in Spain overall.

 

 

Renewable energy production (wind and mini-hydroelectric) grew by 21%. Wind production grew by 23.2%, with noteworthy performance by wind production abroad, which reached 274 GWh during the period, or 10.6% of the Group’s total wind production.

 

 

Nuclear production remains stable, posting a slight decrease of -2.3%. This technology remains the one with the greatest contribution to the generation mix, with a weighting of 35.7%.

 

 

Combined-cycle production fell -33% to 2,719 GWh. This change shows the flexibility of IBERDROLA’s generation facilities, which allows the sources of production to be adapted to the conditions that arise during each period.

 

 

The significant reduction of production using more polluting sources of energy consolidated itself during the period, with a drop of -28.6% in coal production and a drop of -97.3% in fuel oil production, which, at only 15 GWh, practically reduced production from these energy sources to zero.

Emissions have been reduced by 37.1% in year-on-year terms, reaching 133 gr/kWh, 2.8 times lower than emissions for the rest of the sector. The percentage of emission-free production rose to 76%, jumping from the 62.3% achieved during the same period of 2006.

The increase posted in the region is due primarily to the 24.2% growth in combined-cycle production in Mexico thanks to the Altamira V combined-cycle plant (1,121 MW) going into operation and the full operation and greater availability of the Mexican plants of Monterrey (1,037 MW), Altamira (1,036 MW), Enertek (120 MW) and La Laguna (500 MW). In terms of hydroelectric power, it experienced growth of 14.3%.

Analysis of results for the period

Below is the interpretation adopted by IBERDROLA with respect to the following items:

Tariff Insufficiency

With regard to the tariff insufficiency estimated for 2007, sector-wide, and once the value of the emission rights consumed is discounted, the estimated tariff deviation could reach a figure on the order of € 75.8 million. According to Royal Decree 5/2005 of 11 March, the provisional percentage that would correspond to IBERDROLA for financing that tariff deviation would reach 35.01%, which entails a deviation of € 26.5 million.

Royal Decree 3/2006

Emission rights

According to the interpretation made of Royal Legislative Decree 3/2006 at IBERDROLA, and after the publication of the aforementioned Ministerial Order ITC/400/2007, the initial sector-wide deviation figure of € 75.8 million includes € 48.9 million corresponding to the value to be reimbursed for the emission rights assigned pursuant to the National Allowance Plan and consumed during the period. On the other hand, no other emission rights subsidies are considered, except those under the Special Regime, specifically those corresponding to Co-generation activity. The impact for IBERDROLA pertaining to Emission Rights according to the above interpretation, amounts to € -5.7 million, posted in the Generation business. This impact is calculated from the difference between the emission rights granted to co-generators for € 2.3 MM, and the cost of emission rights for the period, which amounts to € -8.0 MM.

Furthermore, the changes occurring with respect to CO2 emissions have been the following:

 

     Million Tn    Average price

Allowances consumed

   2.7    2.95

No effect from assimilation to bilateral contracts

Insofar as bilateralisation, as of the publication of the Royal Decree on 2007 Tariffs, the provisional price for bilateral contracts ceases to be € 42.35/MWh, being assimilated to the market price, as stipulated in the aforementioned Royal Decree. In addition, following the publication of Ministerial Order ITC/400/2007, which governs this type of bilateral contract, the assimilation method under Royal Decree-Law 3/2006 has become void and only Article 2 thereof, on the deduction of the value of emission rights assigned for free to generating facilities, remains in effect. In this sense, OMEL announced on the 27th of February that as of the second intraday session on this date, the assimilation under Royal Decree-Law 3/2006 would no longer be carried out.

The most noteworthy aspects of the results for the first quarter of 2007 are the following:

The Net Sales of the Group reached € 2,716.6 million at the end of the first quarter of 2007, a decrease of 8.8% compared to the same period of 2006. Growth in International (+4.6%) Engineering and Non-Energy (+36.2%), did not suffice to offset the drop in the Domestic Energy business (20.2%).

LOGO

Net Sales for the Domestic Energy Business fall by 20.2% due to the effect of the lower prices obtained in Generation and Renewables. Nevertheless, Distribution achieved growth of 40.5% in Net Sales, deriving from two factors: the increase in remuneration for the regulated business and the lack of a negative impact from bilateralisation associated with Royal Decree 3/2006.

2. GROSS MARGIN

At a consolidated level, the Gross Margin reached € 1.572.5 million, with growth of 5.3% compared to what was obtained in the same period of 2006. Whilst International (+36%) and Engineering and Non-energy (+21.6%) improved substantially, the Domestic business (-1.4%) and Renewables (-5.5%) were affected by the aforementioned energy price situation.

LOGO

The Group’s total Procurement cost showed a significant reduction of 17.5%, as a result of a different production mix in Generation in Spain and due to less procurement in International.

The Gross Margin includes € -17 million due to the negative effect deriving from the devaluation of the Real in Brazil and the dollar in Mexico.

Breaking down the change in Gross Margin by business, the following aspects are noteworthy:

2.1 Domestic Energy Business

The Gross Margin reached E 1,120.4 million, showing a drop of -2.2% compared to the same period of 2006. For the Spain Energy business (excluding renewables), the decrease was -1.4%, which can be explained as follows: while the Distribution business posted an increase of 39.8%, the Generation, Commercial and Gas businesses together suffered a drop of -18.2%. The Renewables business alone showed a decline of -5.5%.

LOGO

 

Various factors have influenced the change in Gross Margin:

 

 

The Distribution business rose by € 105.7 million (+39.8%), posting an increase of € 46 million thanks to the increase in the remuneration of regulated activities. In addition, it no longer shows any negative impact from Royal Decree 3/2006 in terms of bilateralisation, since the latter is carried out at market prices. In the first quarter of 2006, the negative impact from bilateralisation due to the effects of Royal Decree 3/2006 was € 47.6 million.

 

 

Generation experienced a drop of 23.1% due to a 40.9% decrease in the pool price. A similar amount of production under the Ordinary Regime (-0.6%), with a generation mix of variable low-cost and cleaner technologies, lowered Procurement costs by 43.1%. The impact due to emission allowances consumed during the period was only € -5.7 million, compared to the € 101.2 million posted during the same period of 2006.

 

 

The growing contribution of the Supply & Gas business, as a result of the policy followed in the liberalised market and the flexibility of the portfolio of gas contract (+35.6 million).

 

 

Renewables posted a drop of 5.5% in terms of Gross Margin, much lower than the drop of 21.8% in prices, thanks to the greater installed capacity (+16.3%), which has translated into greater wind production (+ 23.2%).

2.2 International Business

The Gross Margin reached € 266.5 million, a 36.0% increase, due to the good evolution of the Group’s businesses in the region. The energy generated grew by 21.5% thanks to the Altamira V cycle (1,121 MW) in operation since the fourth quarter of 2006, together with a greater availability index and improvements in efficiency at the rest of the plants. Energy distributed grew by 6.2%. Procurement was reduced by 11.3%. Another factor to consider is the devaluation of the exchange rate for the region’s local currencies: the real in Brazil (-4.4%) and the U.S. dollar, which affects Mexico (-8.6%).

2.3 Non-Energy and Engineering and Services

They contributed € 185.5 million to the total Gross Margin, showing growth of 21.6%, in a quarter in which the Real Estate Business improved its contribution by €` 45.5 million following various transactions closed during the period, which was offset partially by the lower contribution by Corporación IBV in terms of Gross Margin as a result of the sale of Azertia and of Landata during the 2006 financial year.

3. EBITDA / GROSS OPERATING RESULT

The consolidated EBITDA has increased by 2.9% up to € 1,087.1 million. Added to the changes already explained under Gross Margin should be an analysis of Net Operating Expenses, which increased by 12.3%, with the following items being noteworthy:

 

 

The decrease in Net Personnel Expenses of 4.0%.

 

 

A 31.5% increase in Net External Services Reported. It includes two effects of an extraordinary nature: € 14.1 million of attendance premium to the General Shareholders Meeting and other non-recurring expenses of € 17.6 million

LOGO

The change in Net Operating Expenses in homogeneous terms, deducting the non-recurring items, reaches growth of 4.2% (versus the 12.3% reported); lower than the 5.3% increase in Gross Margin. In addition, there is a positive impact due to exchange rate of € 4 million, associated with the changes in the currencies of the businesses in Latin America.

Results by business

1. ENERGY BUSINESS: SPAIN

1.1 Generation

a) Gross Margin

To analyse the change in this item during the first quarter of 2007, the following must be borne in mind:

 

 

A similar amount of production under the Ordinary Regime (-0.6%), although with greater weight for variable low-cost emission-free production technologies, which reaffirms the flexibility of IBERDROLA’s generation mix (hydraulic +113.3%; nuclear -2.3%).

 

 

In addition, strong decreases were experienced in production through thermal energy sources -28.6% for coal, -97.3% for fuel-oil, and -33.0% for combined cycles).

 

 

A drop of 41% in the pool price.

The Gross Margin for the Generation Business posted a 23.1% decrease. It is worth highlighting the following:

 

 

Net Sales decreased by 36.9%, in line with the aforementioned drop in the pool price (-41.0%).

 

 

Procurement costs dropped -43.1%, as a result of the different production mix mentioned above. The average cost of fossil fuel (not including nuclear) stood at 38.4 € / MWh.

EBIT

   251.2    -44.8 %

1.2 Supply & gas

a) Gross Margin

In terms of the Gross Margin for the Supply business, the following is noteworthy:

 

 

The significant reduction in the volumes of electricity sold (-66.1 %).

 

 

The policy of active management and optimization of the gas procurement portfolio.

It thus manages to show a positive contribution of up to € 25.5 million against the losses of € 10.1 million posted during the same period of 2006.

LOGO

By units, the following is also worth noting:

 

 

Electricity: An improvement from the € -18.6 million of the first quarter of 2006 to the € -5.2 million recorded as of March 2007, where the decrease in the volumes of electricity sold should be taken into account.

 

 

Gas: Its contribution to the Gross Margin grew by € 22.2 million, standing at € 30.7 million in the first quarter of 2007.

b) Operating Profit / EBIT

The policy of optimising the gas and reducing exposure to the electricity business has managed to show a positive contribution in terms of EBITDA of € 21.7 million, as against losses of € -27.3 million during the same period of 2006. In terms of EBIT, a positive contribution is also shown during the first quarter of 2007 in the amount of € 20.7 million after making € 1 million in amortisation, appreciably improving the progress of the business following the € -29.4 million in losses reached in terms of EBIT at the end of the first quarter of 2006.

1.3. Renewables

a) Gross Margin

The following factors are especially noteworthy in the change in the Renewables business throughout the first quarter of 2007:

 

 

Following the aforementioned evolution undergone by the pool price, renewable energy prices are down 21.8%. At the end of the first quarter of 2007, 99% of the facilities are operating under the market participation system.

 

 

Total installed capacity rose 16.3% (+638 MW) to 4,552 MW. This increase in capacity has translated into growth of 23.2% in domestic and international wind production, up to 2,578 GWh. Total renewable energies production (wind plus mini-hydro) grew 21.0%. The growth achieved in renewable production is practically double that experienced by the whole Spanish electric system, which was at 11.8%.

LOGO

 

 

International Renewables accounted for 10.1 % of installed capacity and for 10.1 % of production in the first quarter of 2007.

 

 

The 21% increase in production has managed to lessen the effects of the aforementioned 21.8% drop in prices, so that the decrease posted in terms of Gross Margin is of only 5.5% to € 203.4 million. The Gross Margin for Renewables already represents 28% of the total obtained for generation by IBERDROLA in Spain.

b) Operating Profit / EBIT:

The EBIT posted a drop of 24.8% to € 106.1 million due to the following factors:

 

First Quarter 2007 financial results    37


LOGO

 

 

The EBITDA showed a decrease of 12.4%, slightly higher than the fall experienced in terms of Gross Margin as a result of the growth (+34.3%) in Net Operating Expenses driven by the new facilities that have become operational and the significant increase in international activity.

The EBITDA margin remains at levels very close to 80%, despite the price situation described. In addition, the contribution by Renewables to the Group’s EBITDA continued its growth trend, to reach 14.7%, rising from the 14.3% posted for the 2006 financial year overall.

 

 

Amortisation & Provisions are 29.3% higher, due to the addition of new installed capacity during the financial year.

Insofar as Net Operating Expenses, it is important to highlight the increase in the international area, up E 6.4 million, reaching € 8.0 million and placing overall Net Operating Expenses for the business at € 41.1 million (+34.3%).

 

 

The key operating figures for this business are as follows:

 

RENEWABLES (Million euros)

   Q1 2007    vs. Q1 2006  

Net Sales

   203.4    -  5.5 %

Gross Margin

   203.4    -  5.5 %

EBITDA

   160.0    -12.4 %

EBIT

   106.1    -24.8 %

1.4. Distribution

a) Gross margin

The Gross Margin of the Distribution business experienced growth of 39.8%, to reach € 371.1 million, primarily as a result of the following factors:

 

 

Positive effect of € 46 million reflecting the increase in remuneration of regulated activities in line with the Royal Decree on 2007 Tariffs.

 

 

Lack of negative impact due to bilateralisation resulting from the application of Royal Decree 3/2006 of 24 February. At the end of the first quarter of 2006, the negative impact posted for that reason reached € 47.6 million. Since the publication of the Royal Decree on 2007 Tariffs, the settlement price for bilateral contracts ceases to be the provisional one of 42.35 €/MWh), being assimilated to the market price, as stipulated in the aforementioned Royal Decree on tariffs. In addition, following the publication of Ministerial Order ITC/400/2007, which governs this type of bilateral contracts, the assimilation method under Royal Decree-Law 3/2006 has remained without effect.

b) Operating Profit / EBIT

The EBITDA for Distribution is up 95% (€ 226.5 million), given that the growth posted in terms of Gross Margin is combined with an 8.7% decrease in Net Operating Expenses, with various efficiency measures made. Net Personnel Expenses were down 12.5% and Net External Services experienced a drop of 6.1 %.

 

38    First Quarter 2007 financial results


LOGO

 

The EBIT for Distribution grew by € 124.8 million (+242%) to € 176.3 million, given that the growth posted in terms of EBITDA is combined with a 22.3% decrease in Amortisation & Provisions, reaching € 50.3 million, due mainly to the change in provisions because of the inclusion of some non-recurring items in 2006, partially offset by growth of 25.4% in Taxes, associated with increased demand and the switch from free to regulated tariff energy.

 

 

The key figures for this Business are as follows:

 

DISTRIBUTION (Million euros)

   Q1 2007    vs. Q1 2006  

Net Sales

   373.1    40.5 %

EBIT

   176.3    242.3 %

1.5 Corporation

This includes eliminations of inter-group expenses between the corporation and the businesses.

2. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS

a) Gross Margin

Net Sales from International increased 4.6% to reach € 611.4 million. Mexico, with a 60.5% contribution, is the area making the greatest relative contribution, thanks to increases in production, with the new Altamira V (1,121 MW) plant on line since the fourth quarter of 2006, along with greater plant availability. Also notable is the increase in Revenues in Brazil by 15.1%, resulting essentially from increased demand and from the tariff adjustments.

The Gross Margin for the International business is up 36% (€ +70.6 million) to € 266.5 million, an increase achieved even considering the negative exchange rate impact. The change in the Gross Margin for the Latin America region can be broken down as follows:

 

 

Increase in the Gross Margin in functional currency: € +87.8 million

 

 

Exchange rate effect: € -17.2 million, due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar (-8.6%) and of the Brazilian real in relation to the euro (-4.4%).

In Mexico-Guatemala, the Gross Margin amounted to € 104.9 million (+32.8%). This increase is due to the full contribution to results by the new combined cycles and the significant improvements in plant efficiency and availability, which together have led to a 24.2% increase in production in the area. The exchange rate impact is slightly negative, with the dollar posting a devaluation of-8.6%, the effect of which is € -10.2 million.

In Brazil, the Gross Margin showed a positive change of 38.2% (to € 161.6 million), thanks to a greater contribution from the distribution businesses arising from growth in demand (+6.5%), tariff adjustments and reviews that added another € 22.2 million, and the larger contribution of the Generation business. The exchange rate effect is also slightly negative following the devaluation of the real in relation to the euro (-4.4%), with an effect of € -7 million.

b) Operating Profit/ EBIT

The change in International EBIT, which has increased 53.5% to € 156.9 million, reflects an increase in EBITDA of 41% and moderate growth of 9% in Amortisation & Provisions, deriving primarily from the aforementioned plants going into operation. EBITDA growth in local currency reached 50.4%.

LOGO

As far as EBITDA, it posted growth of +29.8% in Mexico, mainly as a result of greater activity in Generation. In South America, it rose +48.8% due to the change already described in the Gross Margin and due to the increase in efficiency.

Thus, total EBITDA growth in the International business is at 41 %.

3. CONSTRUCTION BUSINESSES AND ENGINEERING & NON-ENERGY

a) Gross Margin

Non-energy and Engineering & Construction

Net Sales grew 36.2% to € 470 million in a quarter with a strong contribution by Iberdrola Inmobiliaria (E +82.4 million to € 126.1 million), following the closing of various transactions during the quarter, and a continued high level of contribution by the activity of the Engineering and Construction businesses, which contributed € 177.5 million in Net Sales, growing 57% (€ + 64.7 million). These increases were partially offset by the decrease in the contribution of Corporación IBV (€ -29.6 million) as a result of the sale of Azertia and of Landata in 2006.

The Gross Margin reached € 185.5 million, up 21.6% compared to the same period of 2006, thanks to the greater contribution from Iberdrola Inmobiliaria and the continued high level of contribution by Engineering and Construction, despite the effects of the aforementioned change in the accounting perimeter at Corporación IBV. It can be broken down as follows:

 

EurMM

   Q1 2007    Q1 2006    Change
million

Engineering & Construction

   46.3    45.1    +1.2

IBERDROLA Inmobiliaria

TOTAL

   185.5    152.6    +32.9
              

The increase of € 45.5 million at Iberdrola Inmobiliaria is due to the closing of various transactions during the quarter. As for Engineering & Construction (€ +1.2 million), Engineering shows growth in its contribution that is partially offset by the seasonality that affects the services area. The drop of € 21.8 million at Corporación IBV is attributable to the sale of Azertia and of Landata in 2006, which ceased contributing to results.

b) Operating Profit / EBIT

In terms of EBITDA, the contributions can be broken down as follows:

 

 

In terms of the contribution of Iberdrola Engineering & Construction, the EBITDA of Engineering reached € 12.5 million, growing 96%, while the one for Services reached € 4.9 million, falling due to the seasonality proper to the business. The growth experienced in volumes also had an effect in terms of Net Operating Expenses, whereby the EBITDA for the business showed a drop of 42.7%.

 

 

The contribution of Iberdrola Inmobiliaria is € 61.1 million, in line with the trend shown in terms of Gross Margin, with a greater contribution this quarter.

 

 

Corporación IBV, which is consolidated by proportionate consolidation according to IFRS, has contributed € 5.2 million through its various industrial businesses.

 

 

The contribution of Other Services was € 38.9 million.

The Balance Sheet of IBERDROLA at 31 March 2007 shows Total Assets of € 34,002 million, highlighting the maintenance of its financial strength, even taking into account the investments made during the period (€ 506 million).

The leverage ratio in March 2007 stood at 55.3%, compared to 57.9% in March 2006. If financing of the tariff insufficiency is taken into account, the adjusted leverage at March of this year would be 54.1% (in March 2006, it would have been 54.7%).

Thus, the adjusted financing of the tariff insufficiency corresponding to IBERDROLA reached € 606 million in March 2007, after the securitization of the tariff insufficiency rights attributable to IBERDROLA in 2006.

Analysis of the Balance Sheet

1. FIXED ASSETS

Total investments during the period from January to March 2007 added up to € 506 million. Their breakdown is as follows:

With respect to investments in Spain, those made in the Company’s basic activity, both in production and distribution, stand out, totalling € 285 million, broken down as follows:

 

 

€ 79 million allocated to the Generation business.

 

 

€ 91 million allocated to the Renewables business.

 

 

€ 115 million allocated to the Distribution business

Under the heading “Other,” included in the Spain section, it is worth highlighting the transaction, completed in January, increasing the stake in Medgas from 12% to 20%, in addition to which there are various transactions by the Non-Energy businesses.

Investments in Mexico have mainly focused on the combined cycle of Tamazunchale, with € 11 million. As far as Brazil is concerned, investments have been made both in the distribution, as well as in the generation business, being financed in large part through funds generated in Brazil.

Under the heading “Other International”, the investments pertaining to the international area for Renewables are included, with notable investments in Greece, Portugal, the United States, Poland and France.

2. SHARE CAPITAL

The Share Capital at 31 December 2006 was comprised of 901,549,181 bearer shares with a par value of € 3 each.

On 2 January 2007, an interim dividend charged to the 2006 financial year in the amount of € 0.45 per share was paid.

3. FINANCIAL DEBT

The adjusted net financial debt at the end of March totalled € 13,061 million, and the financial leverage stood at 55.3%. If financing of the tariff insufficiency is taken into account, which at March 2007 amounted, in the case of IBERDROLA, to € 606 million, the adjusted net financial debt would be € 12,455 million and the adjusted leverage would reach 54.1%

Of particular relevance is the change in the Company’s financial cost, which at March 2007 stood at 4.65%, 5 basis points higher than in march 2006, which suggests significant financial cost containment considering the upward trend in interest rates.

The debt structure can be broken down by currency and interest rate as follows:

(*)

Without the tariff insufficiency (€ 606 million) and without the sector´s CO2 financing (€ 306 million), the floating rate % would be reduced to 30% in March 2007.

Note: At March 2007, IBERDROLA had already signed Forward Swaps amounting 1,061 million euros and 200 million US dollars, to become effective almost entirely in 2007.

In line with the policy to minimise the Company’s financial risks, it is necessary to recall that currency risks have continued to be mitigated by financing investments in Latin America in local currencies (the real, in the case of Brazil) or in their functional currencies (the dollar, in the case of Mexico).

4. WORKING CAPITAL

Net Working Capital was down by € 38 million, compared to the end of the 2006 financial year. This result derives fundamentally from an increase in current assets affected by an increase in inventories and in treasury instruments, offset by an increase in current liabilities as a result of changes in certain provisions and accounts payable.

Analyst and Investor Asessment of Corporate Reputation

 

LOGO    MERCO 2007. Iberdrola is in eighth position among the 100 companies comprising the general classification, and again leads the Energy, Gas and Water sector

According to the results of the 2007 Spanish Corporate Reputation Monitor (MERCO), the chief of the reputation indicators published in Spain, IBERDROLA is in eighth position among the 100 companies comprising the overall ranking and again leads the Energy, Gas and Water sector.

As far as business leaders with the best reputation are concerned, IBERDROLA’s President, Ignacio Galán, is in one of the lead positions among Spanish business leaders, ranking tenth out of the 100 leaders rated.

The method whereby the MERCO index is prepared includes a survey of 12,000 business leaders and an evaluation by various groups of experts. Financial analysts evaluate the economic and financial results; members of NGOs do the same for ethics and corporate social responsibility; union representatives weigh employment quality; and consumer associations evaluate the quality of the sales offerings. In addition, a group of opinion leaders evaluates the business managers. Finally, analysts from the Institute in charge of the charge check the reputation of companies against a “ merits questionnaire” and compare the information received.

5. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The highlights for Corporate Governance over the first quarter of 2007 were as follows:

General Shareholders Meeting Held On 29th of March 2007 last, at the Palacio Euskalduna in Bilbao, the Company’s General Shareholders meeting was held, with due notice for this purpose, and was chaired for the first time by its President and Managing Director, Ignacio Sánchez Galán.

The Meeting, which went into session with a quorum of 77.33% of the share capital (14.55% present and 62.78% represented), discussed and resolved matters regarding (i) the Annual Accounts and corporate management, (ii) the composition of the Board of Directors and the express authorisations and delegations that are being requested for that body, (ii) bringing internal regulations into line with the Unified Code of Good Governance, approved by the National Securities Market Commission (Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores -CNMV) on 22 May, 2006, and other bylaws and regulatory amendments, and (iv) the Scottish Power Plc transaction.

All of the resolutions were approved by a majority of shareholders, with a vote in favour greater than 99% of the capital present and represented at the meeting.

i) Resolutions regarding the Annual Accounts and the corporate management

The General Meeting approved the Annual Accounts for the 2006 fiscal year and the Management Reports for the Company and its Consolidated Group, as well as the corporate management and performance by the Board of Directors during the 2006 fiscal year. In addition, the proposed allocation of the results was approved, which includes the payment of a gross dividend of € 1.043 per share.

The full text of the Annual Accounts for the 2006 fiscal year and of the Management Reports on the Company and on its Consolidated Group, as well as the respective auditors’ reports, are available at www.iberdrola.com.

ii) Resolutions regarding the composition of the Board of Directors and the express authorisations and delegations in favour of that body

The General Shareholders Meeting resolved to confirm the Director appointments made by cooptation since the last Meeting was held, namely, Iñigo Víctor de Oriol Ibarra, Inés Macho Stadler, Braulio Medel Cámara and José Carlos Pla Royo, as well as to re-elect the first three as Directors and José Orbegozo Arroyo, Lucas María de Oriol López-Montenegro, Mariano de Ybarra y Zubiría and Xabier de Irala Estévez. Lastly, it was also resolved to appoint Nicolás Osuna García as a Director, all of them for the five-year term stipulated in the bylaws.

Accordingly the Board of Directors of Iberdrola is currently made up of a total of fifteen Directors, of which only the President and Managing Director are classified as executive. The remaining 14 directors include 12 independents, one representing substantial shareholders and one classified within the category of “other external shareholders”.

Details on the Directors’ identity, type and profile, as well as on the composition of the Executive Board, the Auditing and Compliance Board, and the Appointments and Salaries Committee, are available in continuously updated form at the Company Web site (www. iberdrola.com).

Furthermore, the General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors so that, subsequent to the completion of the merger transaction with Scottish Power Plc, it may carry out an Iberdrola share split at the rate of 1 to 4. As a result of this split, the number of shares outstanding will be increased fourfold, reducing the nominal value of each share from 3 euros to 0.75 euros, without modifying the share capital figure. In addition, as a result, Article 5 of the Corporate Bylaws on share capital will be amended.

The objectives of the split, which will be carried out in any case once the integration with Scottish Power Plc is completed, are fundamentally to offer the stock greater liquidity and negotiability and to further the performance of the loyalty-building programmes directed at investors (such as, for example, the Dividend Reinvestment Plan, implemented by the company in 2006).

In addition, the General Meeting approved the granting of the following express authorisations and delegations in favour of the Board of Directors:

 

 

Authorisation for the derivative acquisition of treasury stock by the Company and/or by its Subsidiaries, up to a limit of 5% of the share capital and for a maximum term of 18 months.

 

 

Delegation, for a period of five years, of the authority to issue: a) bonds or simple debentures and other fixed-income securities of a similar nature, as well as preferred shares, with a maximum limit of € 20.0 billion and b) notes with a maximum amount, separately from the foregoing, of € 4.0 billion, and authorisation for the Board to be able to guarantee, on behalf of the Company within the limits specified above, the new securities issues that may be made by Subsidiaries.

 

 

Authorisation to request the admission and exclusion of the securities issues or that may be issued by the Company from trading on secondary markets.

 

 

Authorisation to the Board of Directors for the creation and endowment of Associations and Foundations up to the amount of € 10 million yearly.

iii) Resolutions relative to compliance with the Unified Code of Good Governance and other bylaws and regulatory amendments

The General Meeting also approved the proposed amendments of the Corporate Bylaws and Shareholder Meeting Rules and the new amalgamated drafts of these documents, and took note of the amendment and approval, dated 20 February, of a new amalgamated draft of the Board of Directors’ Rules.

In this regard, on the same date the Board of Directors resolved to amend the Internal Rules of Conduct on Securities Markets and the Appointments and Salaries Committee’s Rules, as well as to ratify the amendment of the Auditing and Compliance Committee’s Rules as approved by that Committee at a session on 14 February 2007, amendments which went into effect on 29 March 2007, as a result of the aforesaid proposed amendments of the Corporate Bylaws and the General Shareholders Meeting Rules, with the exception of the Internal Rules of Conduct on Securities Markets, which will become effective on 28 April 2007.

The purpose of these amendments is to bring the Company’s internal rules into line with the recommendations of the Unified Code of Good Governance, as well as to amend them for the purpose of clarifying the rules on certain matters.

The full draft of the Corporate Bylaws, the General Shareholders Meeting Rules, and the remaining internal rules for the corporate bodies currently in force may be consulted at www.iberdrola.com.

iv) Resolutions relative to the Scottish Power Plc transaction

In connection with the combination agreement reached with Scottish Power Plc in November 2006, the General Shareholders Meeting resolved to increase the capital stock of Iberdrola by a maximum of 263,377,413 shares, representing over 20% of the share capital resulting from the increase. The equivalent value of that capital increase, for a maximum of approximately € 8,625 billion between the par value and the issuance premium, will be paid in by means of non-monetary contributions consisting of ordinary shares of Scottish Power Plc.

In addition, the General Meeting has approved an issue of simple debentures for a nominal amount ranging from 20 to 750 million pounds sterling for the purpose of meeting the claims of ordinary shareholders of Scottish Power Plc, who choose to receive debentures in full or partial cash consideration for their shares, delegating to the Board the authority to set the terms and conditions of that issue.

Furthermore, the General Meeting authorised (i) the continuation, once the Scottish Power Plc transaction is completed, of the plans established for the employees of the Scottish Power Plc group, in which residual rights exist to acquire shares of that company after the transaction, for the sole purpose of administering those residual rights in accordance with the plan rules and (ii) the delivery of Iberdrola shares, under the terms provided for in the Scottish Power Plc transaction, in relation to the Scottish Power Plc shares that are issued once the Scottish Power Plc transaction is completed, to the holders of such residual rights for the liquidation thereof.

Similarly, for the purpose of meeting Iberdrola’s commitments in the context of the Scottish Power Plc transaction on the future maintenance of this company’s policy of compensating its personnel in shares, the General Meeting has authorised the Board of Directors so that it will be able to implement, develop and execute plans intended for the employees of Scottish Power Plc and extend them to all employees of the new Iberdrola Group and, for this purpose, it has agreed to increase the share capital, through monetary contributions, by issuing 11,649,266 new shares (or 46,597,064 new shares if the increase is carried out after the completion of the stock split described above) with exclusion of a pre-emptive right of subscription.

It is expected that the deal with Scottish Power Plc, also approved by the General Shareholders Meeting of the Scottish company this 30th of March, will be finalised during April, following the completion of the remaining relevant steps to be taken in accordance with the rules on the matter.

All information on the ScottishPower transaction may be accessed at www.iberdrola.com.

Information Transparency

One of our Company’s core corporate governance principles is to promote maximum transparency in the information - financial and other - provided to shareholders and markets. In this regard, during the first quarter of 2007, there has been a high level of activity involving face-to-face information sessions with institutional investors and financial analysts.

On February 20, 2007, the Board approved the Annual Report on Corporate Governance for 2006, in accordance with the form required by Circular 1/2004 of 17 March of the Spanish securities regulator (CNMV).

On the same date, the Board of Directors approved the Report on the Activities of the Audit and Compliance Board for fiscal year 2006, the publication of which is intended to contribute to “good practices” in corporate governance by disseminating the annual activities of the latter Board.

Furthermore, the most significant events concerning the Company and all the relevant information it discloses (with a possible impact on the share price) have been reported first to the CNMV as a relevant event.

Once the information has been sent to the CNMV, and to the Takeover Panel and the SEC, through the appropriate channel, it was transmitted to analysts, as well as to the primary news media and international, local and regional news agencies, and then posted on the corporate Web site, in both Spanish and English.

...but even vertically integrated players are not balanced at all times
Vertical integration provides good hedge of value...
Fragmented generation market leads to actively traded market:
Trading electricity in the UK
Most trades are forward contracts ‘for physical delivery’
Liquidity best in front year –
limited liquidity for products other than baseload
beyond this
Well developed broker market –
final contract is bilateral between counterparties
Limited power exchange market –
counterparty is always the exchange
Good price discovery for main traded products in liquid period
Only allowed to trade with system operator up to 1 hour before delivery –
no trading
after delivery, imbalance charges apply
Industrial/commercial contracts do not give hedge beyond contract period –
typically
one year


18
Trading electricity in the UK –
example
Trading provides the market linkage for Generation and Supply
Generation output to Supply –
but
not a perfect match (shape, volume)
Trading in market:
-
to provide balance
-
to reflect churn of position
-
for incremental value
Trading = up to 3x physical
volumes i.e. liquid market
Generation returns:
-
part of retail price
-
part from wholesale trades
-

trading

The
structure
of
the
industry
dictates
the
use
of
four
different
kinds
of
trading
mechanism (apart from the centralised Balancing Mechanism):
Internal trades between generator businesses and their wholesale
trading and retail
supply businesses, within vertically integrated companies
Long-term agreements (typically 15 years) between independent generators and other
market participants
Traded markets for medium-term OTC contracts
Power exchange(s)
Under the British Electricity Trading and Transmission Arrangements (“BETTA”)
there is no centralised spot market or pool, so there is little public information on
the means of trading electricity, used by individual players
The
starting
point
for
BETTA
is
a
reliance
on
bilateral
contract
trading
to
establish
the
initial plan for each generator’s output
The
majority
of
trades
are
forward
contracts
for
physical
delivery”
(there
is
a
small
options market, but it is not well developed)
Parties may have to enter into brokered negotiations before settling on the transaction
price

Rye House one of top 2 shifting gas
plants in UK
Spark spreads now improving but not yet
at LRMC
Flexing gas plant running to capture peak prices


26
UK markets function effectively
Both UK power and gas markets relatively liquid
on year ahead basis
Able to operate gas generation on a spread basis
long-term contract base with swing (~0.32
bcm)
own gas storage at Hatfield (~0.06 bcm)
LT contracts have delivered
substantial value to ScottishPower
Steady buying strategy for domestic gas
customers dampens wholesale movements:
buying for customers stretches into medium
term
significant cost advantage 2005/06, 2006/07
in line with industry / competitor approach
sell power, buy fuel when in money
buy back power, sell fuel when out of
money
churn position repeatedly to delivery

Ofgem
regulates the UK electricity and gas
markets …
Regulation based on price cap (RPI-X) methodology
Ofgem
is the regulator of the Gas and Electricity Markets Authority. Northern
Ireland’s Regulator is Ofreg
Cost of transmission and distribution: 25-30% of average domestic electricity
bill
Ofgem
protects consumers by promoting competition and ensuring effective
regulation of “wires and gas pipes”
Regulation of the “wires”
businesses has lead to cost reductions and has been
successful

through a price-setting mechanism …
Current distribution price control mechanism (2005-2010) will be in
place until 2010 and transmission until 2012
Five year price control period
Operator base revenue allowances linked to revenue driver –
equally weighted
function of units distributed and number of customers
Regulatory revenue also linked to incentive mechanisms, for example relating to
Losses and Quality of Service
Pass-through for costs of business rates on network assets, licence fees,
transmission charges and other specified non-controllable costs
Correction mechanism adjusts price control for previous over/under recovery of
revenue

E - 9 Changes in the institutional regulation of the sector that significantly affect the economic or financial situation of the Company or Group

Up to 31 March 2007 the following regulations have been published which could be of some relevance to activity in the electricity and gas sector:

ELECTRICITY INDUSTRY

 

 

ORDER ITC/400/2007, of 26 February, regulating the bilateral contracts between distribution companies for tariff supplies within the peninsula.

The purpose of this Order is to regulate the bilateral contracting of electricity with physical delivery by the companies responsible for tariff supplies within the peninsula.

The Order will apply to the purchase of electricity by the distribution companies (in future, from the last-resort retailers.).

Contracts may be signed with the distribution companies by the following market operators who will act as sellers: electricity producers, both ordinary and special regime, retailers, external agents, consumers acting directly in the market, and their respective representatives.

The energy to be supplied by each seller will be assigned by an auction process in which, starting from an amount of energy to be supplied for the distribution companies as a whole and from an initial price, the price will be progressively lowered until a balance is reached between energy supply and demand.

Once the results are published, and before 72 hours have elapsed, sellers and distribution companies will be obliged to formalise their commitments by signing bilateral contracts undertaking the obligation of physical delivery in their corresponding amounts.

 

 

ORDER ITC 446/2007, of 27 February, regulating grants for autochthonous coal transport between coalfields for the years 2006 and 2007.

The purpose of the grants is to compensate for the cost of transporting between coalfields. These grants may be applied for by electricity companies that transport during the years 2006 and 2007 the maximum quantities set out in this Order.

 

 

ORDER ITC 447/2007, of 27 February, regulating the grants for financing power-station coal stocks in excess of the necessary amounts to cover seven hundred and twenty hours’ operation for the years 2006 and 2007.

The purpose of the grants regulated under this order is to compensate for the financing of power-station coal stores (anthracite, soft coal and lignites) in excess of the necessary amounts to cover seven hundred and twenty hours’ full-load operation and wastage.

 

 

ORDER ITC 843/2007, of 28 March, modifying ORDER ITC/4112/2005, of 30 December, stipulating the applicable regime for intra-community and international electricity exchange.

This Order regulates the management mechanism of the Spain-Portugal connection. The mechanism consists of two complementary processes: one is based on the assignation of physical rights of capacity by means of explicit auctions at different times, and the other, short-term process is based on a “market separation” mechanism, known in the

literature as “market splitting”, managed by the Iberian Energy Market Operator and, formerly, by the Iberian Energy Market-Spanish Pole Operator.

A similar adaptation is made in the management mechanism of the Spain-France connection whereas the current system for managing the connection between Spain and Morocco is maintained, now coming under specific consideration.

 

 

Royal Decree 47/2007, of 19 January, approving the basic Procedure for energy-efficiency certification of new construction.

The purpose of the basic Procedure for certifying the energy efficiency of buildings is to determine the method of calculating the energy efficiency classification, with which the certification process commences, taking into consideration the factors that most affect the energy consumption in newly -built buildings or those undergoing a certain degree of alteration or refurbishing; to establish the technical and administrative conditions for the energy efficiency certification of the projects and the finished buildings; and to approve a nationwide logo called the energy efficiency label.

The aim of approving this basic Procedure is to promote energy efficiency by providing objective mandatory information to buyers and users in relation to the energy characteristics of buildings, in the form of an energy efficiency certificate that serves to appraise and compare the different features.

GAS INDUSTRY

No regulations have been published that are of any relevance to gas industry.

COMISIÓN NACIONAL DEL MERCADO DE VALORES

Market Area Director

Po de la Castellana no 19

Bilbao, April 26 2007

COMISIÓN NACIONAL DEL MERCADO DE VALORES – Other communications

Dear Sir,

On April 18, 2007, IBERDROLA, S.A. (hereinafter “Iberdrola”) reported to that Commission, through a communication filed with registry number 23250, that, as a consequence of the increase of its stake in the share capital of MEDGAZ, S.A. (“Medgaz”) by 8% (hereinafter, the “Acquisition”) the COMISIÓN NACIONAL DE ENERGÍA (hereinafter the “CNE”) had filed three requests to Iberdrola in order for this to apply for the granting of the authorisation of the Acquisition before the CNE, in accordance with the Additional Provision eleventh, Third 1, function fourteenth of the Hidrocarbures Sector Law according to the drafting given to the same by the Royal Law Decree 4/2006, February 24th, by virtue of which the functions of the CNE have been modified (hereinafter “Function 14”), conditioning the effectiveness of the Acquisition to the granting of the aforementioned authorisation. In said communication Iberdrola further reported that the CNE has ordered to initiate an administrative sanctioning proceeding based on the failure to comply with Function 14.

In this respect, Iberdrola hereby informs that, on April 24, 2007, it has had access to the proposal of resolution prepared by the Board of the CNE within the sanctioning proceeding referred to above, in which, for the first time, a mention is made to the reasons for which the CNE considers that the Acquisition is subject to Function 14, as, in its opinion, said Acquisition grants to Iberdrola a “significant influence” in Medgaz.

In this regard, once the CNE has made explicit the reasons for its position, and despite the discrepancy with the same, Iberdrola has considered appropriate to request from the CNE, with subsidiary character, the granting of said administrative authorisation for the case where, notwithstanding the assertions of Iberdrola, the CNE still considers compulsory its granting for the validity of the Acquisition.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

This communication does not constitute an offer to purchase, sell or exchange or the solicitation of an offer to purchase, sell or exchange any securities. The shares of IBERDROLA S.A. may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to a valid exemption from registration.
