ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - SUMMARY FIGURES AND INFORMATION
6 Summary figures and information Main events of the first half of 2026 Extraordinary transactions, area tenders and renewable gases • To fulfil the commitments required by the Antitrust Authority relating to the acquisition of 2i Rete Gas, the sales of the gas distribution activities in the 12 ATEMs were completed on 1 March 2026, 1 April 2026 and 1 May 2026. • During the half-year, the biomethane production plants in Porto Tolle (RO), Zinasco (PV) and Druento (TO) were connected to the network. • On 26 March 2026, Italgas obtained ISCC RFNBO certification for Hyround, the green hydrogen production plant in Sestu (Cagliari), the first in Italy to be directly connected to a city gas distribution network. The certification attests to compliance with the European criteria for sustainability, traceability and the use of renewable energy as set out in RED III. • On 28 May 2026, the conversion of the city network from propane-air to natural gas was completed in Sassari. • On 16 June 2026, a protocol was signed in Torre de' Passeri with MASE, CIG and SGI for a decarbonisation pilot project that involves the injection of a mixture of natural gas and hydrogen into the local network. The initiative aims to reduce emissions, enhance existing networks and contribute to the regulatory and technological development of the sector, as part of the broader energy transition and Hydrogen development pathway promoted by the Group. • On 19 June 2026, a new Digital Reverse Flow plant was inaugurated in Gazzo Veronese (VR). This innovative technology significantly increases the network's capacity to accommodate biomethane, helping to strengthen energy security, competitiveness and sustainability. The plant also makes it possible to manage excess local production, conveying renewable gases to the national grid and making them available on a larger scale. • On 29 June 2026, through Italgas Properties S.p.A., the Group's new company dedicated to the development and strategic management of the company's real estate assets, the "Parallelo" building, located at Via Carlo Bo 11 in Milan, the headquarters of Italgas, was purchased. Legal and regulatory • With reference to the dispute with Roma Capitale concerning the gas distribution service, the Court of Rome, at first instance, issued a decision that significantly reduced the parties' mutual claims, with substantially compensatory effects. The ruling is part of a complex and long-standing dispute. The Group is considering lodging an appeal. • With judgement no. 117/2026 of 31 March 2026, the Regional Administrative Court of Friuli-Venezia Giulia upheld the appeal filed by Italgas Reti regarding the call for tenders for the concession of the gas distribution service in the Pordenone Area. The Contracting Authority therefore cancelled the tender, which must be published again.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - SUMMARY FIGURES AND INFORMATION
7 • On 20 February, the "Decreto Bollette" (Decree-Law No. 21 of 20 February 2026) was published in the Official Gazette, introducing a series of urgent measures to contain energy costs for households and businesses. The measures include a 2% increase in IRAP, applied to large operators in the energy sector, including gas distribution. This measure was designed to raise resources to finance bonuses and discounts on bills; the increase in IRAP is a temporary "energy tax". • With Resolution No. 16/2026/R/gas, the Authority initiated the procedure for defining the measures regarding tariffs and service quality for the transport and metering of natural gas for the seventh regulation period (7PRT), with effect from 2028. • On 21 April 2026, ARERA launched a consultation (DCO no. 135/2026/R/gas) relating to the implementation of the Prime Ministerial Decree of 10 September 2025 on the works necessary for the "phase-out" of coal in Sardinia, presenting its guidelines for the regulatory framework of the island's virtual connection ("virtual pipeline"). The consultation extends the infrastructural scope of the virtual connection, including – in line with the provisions of the Prime Ministerial Decree – also the Oristano coastal LNG storage facility, the LNG road transport service and the cryogenic storage facilities with local regasification units currently used in the isolated Sardinian networks. For this infrastructure and these services, the Italian Regulatory Authority for Energy Networks Environment proposes reserving the same criteria for recognising costs as those envisaged for regulated transport, preferring not to apply, at least in the initial phase, the Totex capitalisation logic based on notional capitalisation rates. The Authority also considers the transitional tariff metering measures in force for distribution networks in Sardinia (CE component introduced by Resolution 532/2025/R/gas) to be consistent with the Prime Ministerial Decree, to be applied to all those networks built on the date of entry into force of the Prime Ministerial Decree, i.e. 4 November 2025. Finally, it is assumed that the virtual connection will become operational from 1 January 2027, the date on which Sardinia would be integrated into a single market and balancing area with the rest of Italy (with balancing responsibility assigned to the main transmission company) and ordinary regulation on gas supply tariffs (protection services and last resort) would apply on the island. Italgas submitted its comments on this Consultation Document within the timeframe set by the Authority. Funding operations • On 8 April 2026, a new sustainability-linked revolving credit line of 900 million euro was signed, with a maximum duration of 5 years, refinancing the 600 million euro line activated in 2024. The transaction strengthens the Group's financial flexibility and is linked to the achievement of environmental and social KPIs, in particular on the reduction of Scope 1 and 2 emissions and on the presence of women in positions of responsibility in line with the targets set in the Strategic Plan 2025-2031 and in the Sustainable Value Creation Plan. If the targets are not met, the applicable margin will be increased. The credit line was underwritten with a pool of Italian and international banks. • On 9 April 2026, a new fixed-rate bond issue of 750 million euro was successfully placed, with a due date of 16 April 2032 and an annual coupon of 3.625%. The transaction, which saw demand exceed supply by more than 2.5 times, highlighted the high quality and wide geographical diversification of institutional investors. The bond, as part of the EMTN Programme approved by CONSOB in July 2025, represents the first dematerialised issue by an Italian corporate with securities governed by English

ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - ITALGAS AND THE FINANCIAL MARKETS
10 Italgas and the financial markets During the first six months of 2026, global markets experienced a trend characterised by high volatility, fuelled by the growing instability of the geopolitical situation in the Middle East region, culminating in the combined attack by Israel and the United States on Iran on 28 February and the consequent energy crisis caused by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a key maritime hub for global trade in oil and liquefied natural gas. This shock led to a sharp revision of expectations for energy commodity prices, rekindling fears of new inflationary pressures and prompting investors to recalibrate expectations for the evolution of monetary policies. In this context, the resilience of the main macroeconomic indicators, albeit in a more uncertain environment, has contributed to progressively supporting the recovery of equity markets after the periods of greatest tension recorded between March and April. In this context, central banks have maintained a cautious approach, with the dual objective of ensuring that inflation returns to the medium-term target while maximising the level of employment. In light of the acceleration in inflation during the second quarter, induced by the energy shock and the volatility of the prices of numerous commodities, the European Central Bank therefore decided, at its June 2026 meeting, to raise the key interest rates by 25 basis points, reversing the downward trend that began in June 2024. In contrast, the FED kept interest rates unchanged during the six-month period, although they remain at higher levels than in Europe, highlighting a more wait-and-see approach and one more oriented towards employment growth on the part of the institution's new president, appointed in May 2026 by the current US administration. On the currency front, the euro was substantially stable against the main international currencies, with the dollar trading at 1.14 at the end of June (-2.8% compared to the end of 2025), while the pound was trading at 0.86 in the same period (-1.2% since the beginning of the year). Interest rates on ten-year government bonds, on the other hand, experienced high volatility during the first half of the year, following increased geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East, with the yield on ten-year Italian government bonds (BTP) rising from a low of just under 3.3% at the end of February to over 4% at the end of March, before partially retracing to around 3.6% at the end of June following the gradual de-escalation and the signing of the "ceasefire" agreement between the US and Iran at the beginning of the month. In the same period, the German 10-year Bund rose from 2.7% to over 3% and then retreated to around 2.8% at the end of June, with the spread thus widening to around 75 basis points compared to 60 before the crisis. The prices of energy commodities also reflected the evolution of the geopolitical landscape during the first half of the year, albeit with lower fluctuations than during the 2022 crisis following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In fact, gas prices on the European market (TTF) rose rapidly from around €30/MWh at the end of February to €60/MWh in just under a month, before retracing to around €40-45/MWh at the end of June, also benefiting from favourable seasonal conditions. Oil followed a similar trend, with Brent rising by more than 65% in one month from the start of the conflict in the Middle East, before returning to the $70-75/bbl range at the end of June following the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to shipping. This volatility in energy commodity prices contributed to the resurgence of inflation globally, with levels returning above 3% in Europe and 4% in the United States during the second quarter of 2026, after hitting their lowest levels since 2020 in the first months of the year.

11 Overall, with prices adjusted for the ex-dividend, the Euro Stoxx 600 equity index appreciated by 10.9% while the S&P 500 index rose by 9.4% in the first 6 months of 2026. Once again, the FTSE MIB index was among the best national indices in Europe, with an increase of 18.2%, driven by the performance of the banking sector and utilities, which benefit from strengthened political stability in the country compared to the other core states of the Union. Other European national indices recorded increases ranging from +14.3% for Spain's IBEX 35, +2.1% for Germany's DAX index, impacted by the crisis in the automotive sector, and +5.6% for France's CAC 40, which is affected by domestic political uncertainty and pressure on national public finances. At the sector level, the Euro Stoxx Utilities index performed at 20.0% in the half-year, outperforming the benchmark index, together with the Tech, Oil & Gas and Basic Resources sectors. This trend is mainly attributable to the worsening of the international geopolitical situation in the Middle East, which culminated in the attack by Israel and the United States on Iran on 28 February and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iranian forces, causing a rapid impact on the prices of energy commodities and precious metals such as gold, while the Tech sector benefited from the explosion in demand for components (mainly in the semiconductor sector) needed for the construction of data centres, especially in the United States. The Italgas share closed the first half of 2026 at 10.14 euro, with an increase of 11.2% adjusted for the dividend payment. From the day of the listing, which took place on 7 November 2016, to 30 June 2026, the total shareholder return was 347%. During the half-year, the average daily trading volume of Italgas shares on the electronic market of Borsa Italiana was approximately 3.71 million shares.

ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - OPERATING PERFORMANCE
14 Operating performance Infrastructure Italgas is a leader in Europe (particularly in Italy and Greece) in the natural gas distribution sector. The distribution service consists of transporting gas, through local gas pipeline networks, from delivery points at the reduction and metering stations interconnected with the transmission networks ("city-gates") to the redelivery points at the end customers (households, businesses, etc.). In addition, Italgas carries out metering, which consists of determining, collecting, making available and storing the metering data of the natural gas withdrawn from the distribution networks. City-gates are the facilities that connect local distribution networks to the national gas pipeline network. Italgas currently has withdrawal stations equipped with advanced remote data management and collection systems. This management allows for the utmost promptness of intervention in the event of an anomaly and the continuous detection of a series of parameters relating to the management of gas flows, as well as the Metering of gas entering the networks. Pressure reduction systems are devices placed along the distribution network and are intended to bring the gas pressure to the correct level in relation to the type of use. Investments In the first half of 2026, technical investments were made for an amount of 765.2 million euro, of which 46.0 million euro related to investments accounted for in accordance with IFRS 16.

The increase compared to 2025 (equal to 4.8 TJ) is due to the different consolidation period of former 2i Rete Gas consumption, as the company joined the Group on 1 April 2025 (+91.2 TJ). This increase is offset, on the one hand, by the reduction in consumption at a constant perimeter of the gas distribution business (-34.7 TJ) and, on the other, by the decrease in consumption of the water service business (-51.7 TJ), attributable to the return to normal conditions following the droughts events recorded during 2025, which had resulted in a higher demand for water supply from Acqua Campania, and to the commissioning of energy-efficiency investments carried out during the semester. In the first six months of 2026, in the gas distribution business at a constant perimeter, a reduction in total consumption was recorded (-14.4% from 241.0 TJ to 206.3 TJ), mainly attributable to the decrease in energy consumption from fossil fuels for industrial use. The reduction is the result of the continuation of efficiency interventions on the Group's plants: replacement of natural gas preheating boilers, installation of gas preheating section optimisation systems, management of pressure let-down energy recovery plants and digitalisation of monitoring and control processes. The Group's electricity consumption is essentially constant (33.0 TJ, of which 0.2 TJ from fossil sources and 32.8 TJ from renewable sources), due to the reduction in consumption linked to the ongoing process of optimisation and renewal of the Group's assets (both industrial and civil), supported by the digitised monitoring of consumption, partially offset by the increase in consumption linked to the digitisation of the gas distribution network. Finally, energy consumption for vehicles fuel decreased by -16.2% (from 60.0 TJ to 50.3 TJ) due to the optimisation of the vehicle fleet and thanks to the progressive digitisation of corporate processes, which overall lead to a significant reduction in field trips by operational staff (-8.6% of kilometres travelled at Group level in the first half of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025). Greenhouse Gas emissions In the gas distribution business, greenhouse gas emissions mainly derive from fugitive emissions of natural gas from distribution networks, from gas preheating activities for gas distributed in decompression systems, 6 In this representation, the consumption resulting from the self-consumption of electricity produced by photovoltaic panels is added to the data for the first six months of 2025, in line with what was done for the first half of 2026. 7 In the press release relating to the data as at 30 June 2025, in the first six months of 2025 the total net energy consumption of the "Constant perimeter" relating to gas distribution was 227.9 TJ, as it included Nepta's consumption of 8.6 TJ (now reported in the "Water service business"), 19.4 TJ of electricity produced by plants equipped with turbo-expanders and cogeneration (now included in consumption) was subtracted, and the consumption deriving from the self-consumption of electricity produced by photovoltaic panels of 2.3 TJ was not taken into account. The data for the first half of 2025 are now reported in line with what was done for the first half of 2026. If the "netting" of the electricity produced by the plants equipped with turbo-expanders and cogeneration and by the photovoltaic plants (equal to 13.6 TJ) were taken into account, the total consumption of the entire Group would amount to 523.4 TJ.

18 and from the consumption of the company fleet. In the water sector, emissions mainly derive from the consumption of electricity for the plants (abstraction and pumping). The Scope 1 and 2 CO2 eq emissions for the first six months of 2025 and 2026 are shown below. The data are presented divided into "Gas distribution business" (with separate illustration of those relating to the assets formerly 2i Rete Gas – "New perimeter") and "Water service business".

The figure is not directly comparable with last year, as the increase compared to the first half of 2025 is attributable to the different consolidation period of former 2i Rete Gas assets, which joined the Group on 1 April 2025. This increase is partially offset by the reductions recorded in the gas distribution business, on constant perimeter, and in the water service business. In the gas distribution business, on constant perimeter basis, total emissions in the first six months of 2026 decreased by 6.6% compared to the same period in 2025, thanks to the reduction in emissions from energy consumption from fossil fuels (-11.8%) and the reduction in fugitive emissions (-5.2%). Thanks to the application of a predictive maintenance model for the networks, combining their physical characteristics and the data obtained in the field from the intensive leak detection programme, the Group identifies the areas of potential leak risk and the related emission probabilities, adopting a predictive management and intervention approach. The key indicator of this process – the ratio of gas dispersed to km of network surveyed – again on constant perimeter basis – stands at 38.3 Smc/km in the first six months of 2026, compared to 37.9 Smc/km in the same period of 2025. 8 Data relating to Acqua Campania and Nepta. 9 Consolidated companies as at 31 December 2025 (Italgas, Bludigit, Geoside, Italgas Reti, Toscana Energia, Medea, Enaon, Enaon EDA).

For the definition of alternative performance indicators, please refer to the chapter "Non-GAAP Measures" of this document. Income components are classified as special items, if significant, when: (i) they derive from events or transactions whose occurrence is non-recurring or from those transactions or events that do not recur frequently in the ordinary course of business; (ii) they derive from events or transactions that are not representative of normal business activity; (iii) they derive from economic components that do not generate cash flows, typically of an accounting nature (non-cash movement). The Tax effect related to the components excluded from the calculation of Adjusted net profit is determined on the basis of the nature of each excluded income component. The operating result and the adjusted net profit are not required by IFRS or by other standard setters. These performance measures allow the analysis of business performance, ensuring better comparability of results. The NON-GAAP financial information must be considered as complementary and does not replace the information prepared in accordance with IFRS.

22 achieved, the reduction in energy and water efficiency costs, despite the inclusion of the new scope resulting from the acquisition of 2i Rete Gas. In particular, there was a significant reduction in costs, amounting to 82.2 million euro (-22.8%) on a like-for-like basis, determined by also including the figures for 2i Rete Gas for the first quarter of 2025. This result confirms the effectiveness of the efficiency measures initiated by the Group and the progressive contribution of operational synergies. The cumulative amount of synergies and operational efficiencies achieved compared to the 2023 baseline stands at 117.2 million euro, equal to 41.8% of the overall target of 280 million euro by 2032, including both what was achieved as at 31 December 2025 and in the first half of 2026.

Adjusted net profit attributable to the Group at 30 June 2026 stands at 398.6 million euro, up +27.3% compared to 30 June 2025 (313.1 million euro). Reclassified Statement of Financial Position The reclassified statement of financial position aggregates the asset and liability values of the mandatory statement, published in the Consolidated Financial Statements, according to the criterion of functionality for the management of the company, conventionally divided into the three fundamental functions: investments, operations and financing. The proposed format provides useful information for the investor because it allows the identification of the sources of financial resources (equity and third-party funds) and the uses of financial resources in fixed capital and working capital. Italgas' reclassified statement of financial position as at 30 June 2026, compared with that as at 31 December 2025, is summarised below:

Net financial debt (excluding the effects of IFRS 16 and IFRIC 12) decreased by 21.3 million euro in the first half of 2026 compared to 31 December 2025, reaching 10,712.5 million euro. This reduction is essentially attributable to the increase in cash and cash equivalents (722.4 million euro), partially offset by the increase in financial and bond debt (689.9 million euro). As at 30 June 2026, cash and cash equivalents amounted to 1,254.3 million euro, invested mainly in short-term deposits with leading credit institutions. The increase derives from the combined effect of: i) the strong generation of operating cash in the half-year, amounting to 929.5 million euro, ii) the proceeds from the divestments required by the Antitrust Authority (253.1 million euro, of which 251.1 million euro related to the divestments of fixed capital to fulfil the commitments required by the Antitrust Authority relating to the acquisition of 2i Rete Gas), iii) pre-funding (750 million euro), iv) the payment of dividends and investments. Financial and bond debt as at 30 June 2026 amounted to 12,106.8 million euro (11,416.9 million euro as at 31 December 2025) and refers to bonds (9,073.4 million euro), loan agreements with funding from the European Investment Bank/EIB (1,057.7 million euro), payables to banks (1,852.3 million euro) and payables for IFRS 16 and IFRIC 12 (123.4 million euro). As at 30 June 2026, fixed-rate debt represents 80.8% of financial and bond debt (79.8% as at 31 December 2025), while variable-rate debt stands at 19.2% (20.2% as at 31 December 2025).

26 Reclassified statement of cash flows The reclassified statement of cash flows format below is a summary of the statutory format of the mandatory statement of cash flows. The reclassified statement of cash flows allows the reconciliation between the change in cash between the beginning and end of the period and the change in net financial debt between the beginning and end of the period. The measure that allows the reconciliation between the two statements is the "free cash flow"14, i.e. the cash surplus or deficit that remains after the financing of investments. (millions of euro) First half of the year 2025 restated 2026 Net profit 353.3 403.1 Adjustment: - Amortisation depreciation and other non-monetary components 292.4 366.7 - Net capital losses (capital gains) on asset sales and eliminations (0.2) (15.7) - Interest and income taxes 245.3 290.6 Change in working capital due to operating activities 84.6 118.0 Dividends, interest and income taxes received (paid) (236.4) (233.2) Cash flow / (used in) operating activities 739.0 929.5 Technical investments (455.7) (713.4) Other changes relating to investment activity (34.1) (33.8) Investments and disinvestments of financial assets not instrumental to operational activity - 1.7 Disinvestments and other changes 4.0 11.0 Free cash flow before Merger and Acquisition transactions 253.2 195.0 Companies included in the scope of consolidation (2,062.8) - Net disposals and advances for companies, plants and other financial assets - 251.9 Free cash flow (1,809.6) 446.9 Change in short-and long-term financial debt and financial receivables 1,112.0 745.2 Repayment of lease liabilities (19.8) (35.5) Capital contribution 1,020.0 - Equity cash flow (330.1) (434.2) Other changes 4.8 - Net cash flow for the year (22.8) 722.4 Change in net financial debt (millions of euro) First half of the year 2025 2026 Free cash flow (1,809.6) 446.9 Change in financial debt from companies that joined the scope of consolidation (3,103.9) - Increase in lease liabilities and fees (16.4) (24.9) Equity cash flow (330.1) (434.2) Capital contribution from third parties 1,020.0 - Other changes (Difference between financial expense accounted for and paid and fair value of derivatives) 29.8 44.1 Change in net financial debt (4,210.2) 31.9 In the first half of 2026, the Group generated cash flows from operating activities of 929.5 million euro, an increase of 190.5 million euro compared to the corresponding period in 2025. This cash generation made it possible to fully finance net investments and to cover part of the payment of dividends. On the other hand, the proceeds from the divestments required by the Antitrust Authority, amounting to 253.1 million euro, of which 251.1 million euro related to the sale of assets and the remainder to the related working capital, contributed to the reduction of the Group's net financial debt. 14 Free cash flow closes alternatively: (i) on the change in cash for the period, after the cash flows relating to financial payables/assets (new loans/repayments of financial receivables/payables) and to equity (payment of dividends/capital contributions) have been added/subtracted; (ii) on the change in net financial debt for the period, after the debt flows relating to equity (payment of dividends/capital contributions) have been added/subtracted.

27 Non-GAAP Measures On 5 October 2015, the ESMA (European Security and Markets Authority) published its guidelines (ESMA/2015/1415) on the criteria for the presentation of alternative performance measures (APMs), which replace the recommendations of CESR/05-178b as of 3 July 2016. In this document, alternative performance measures (APMs) are used, including: adjusted total revenues (Total Revenues and other income excluding (i) the effects deriving from the application of IFRIC 12 "Service concession arrangements", (ii) connection grants, (iii) repayments from third parties and other residual components, (iv) items classified as "special items"), adjusted EBITDA (calculated as net profit for the year excluding income taxes, net income from equity investments, total financial expense, amortisation, depreciation and impairment of assets and items classified as "special items"), adjusted EBIT (calculated as net profit for the year excluding income taxes, net income from equity investments, total financial expense and items classified as "special items") and net financial debt (determined as the sum of current and non-current financial liabilities, net of cash and cash equivalents, current financial assets, such as securities held for trading, and other current and non-current financial assets). The complete list of APMs can be found on the website: https://www.italgas.it/glossario/ The NON-GAAP financial information must be considered as complementary and does not replace the information prepared in accordance with IAS – IFRS.

Relations with related parties Based on the current ownership structure of Italgas, pursuant to paragraph 9 of IAS 24, Italgas's related parties are represented not only by directors, statutory auditors, executives with strategic responsibilities and associated companies and companies under the joint control of the Group, but also by the subsidiaries (direct or indirect) of CDP, thus including the shareholder Snam, and by the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF). Following the entry into force of Article 13, paragraph 1-bis, of Decree-Law No. 95/2025, as converted by Law 118/2025, and Article 1, paragraph 268, of the 2026 Budget Law, the Company has amended its internal procedures for the purpose of regulating related-party transactions pursuant to Article 2391-bis of the Italian Civil Code. The recent legislation that came into force has established that there are no related-party relationships for the purposes of Article 2391-bis of the Italian Civil Code between public administrations that do not exercise management and coordination powers and the companies in which the latter have an interest, even indirectly. The following information is provided in accordance with IAS 24. The related-party transactions undertaken by the Italgas Group concern the exchange of goods, the provision of Services and, with regard to CDP, the provision of financial resources. These relationships are part of the ordinary management of the company and are generally regulated on the basis of market conditions, i.e. the conditions that would have applied between two independent parties. All the transactions implemented were carried out in the interest of the companies of the Italgas Group. CDP and CDP Reti consolidate Italgas in accordance with international accounting standard IFRS 10; furthermore, with the Board of Directors meeting of 1 August 2019, CDP reclassified the shareholding relationship in Italgas S.p.A. as de facto control pursuant to Article 2359, paragraph 1, no. 2), of the Italian Civil Code and Article 93 of the TUF (Consolidated Law on Finance).

Legal and regulatory framework • With Resolution No. 245/2026/R/efr, the Authority determined the tariff contribution to be paid to distributors that meet their energy saving targets under the EEC mechanism for the obligation year 2025, i.e. for the period between 1 June 2025 and 31 May 2026. • The Consultation Document (DCO) 267/2026/R/gas, published on 25 July 2026, sets out ARERA’s initial orientations for the introduction of ROSS criteria in gas distribution and metering services during the sixth regulatory period, effective from 1 January 2028. ARERA's proposal envisages the application of the ROSS framework to operators serving more than 300,000 delivery points and covers both distribution and metering activities. The consultation document presents three regulatory options and indicates a preference for a “simplified ROSS-base" model, under which efficiency targets apply only to operating costs, while capital expenditures would be subject to monitoring. The new model, according to the proposal, does not apply to ATEMs s where tender procedures have already been launched or are ongoing by 31 December 2027. According to the proposal, the new regulatory period would cover the four-year period 2028-2031, with the final regulatory decision expected by the third quarter of 2027.

ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - OPERATING SEGMENT OPERATING PERFORMANCE
34 Operating segment operating performance In line with the methods by which management examines the Group's operating results and in accordance with the provisions of the international accounting standard IFRS 8 "Operating Segments", the Italgas Group has identified the following operating segments: "Gas distribution", "Water service" and "Other segments"15. More precisely, the "Gas distribution" sector relates to the gas distribution and metering activities carried out by the Group companies both in Italy and in Greece. The "Water Service" sector consists of all public services for the collection, adduction and distribution of water for civil use, sewerage and wastewater treatment. The residual items, relating to Corporate and other services performed for third parties, are included in "Other sectors". The significant expansion of the Gas Distribution Sector, following the consolidation of 2i Rete Gas and the award of the ATEM tenders, has led to a reduction in the relative impact of energy efficiency activities on the Group's overall business. In line with the evolution of the methods of performance monitoring and resource allocation by management, these activities are no longer represented as an independent Operational segment pursuant to IFRS 8. The related economic, equity and financial items have consequently been transferred to the "Other sectors" segment, in which they are now included for the purposes of management reporting and segment reporting.

36 Legislative and regulatory framework Gas distribution tariff regulation – Italy The distribution and metering of natural gas is regulated by the Regulatory Authority for Energy Networks and Environment (ARERA). The tariff system provides in particular that the reference revenues for the formulation of tariffs are determined in such a way as to cover the costs incurred by the operator and allow a fair return on the capital invested. There are three recognised cost categories: • the cost of net invested capital for regulatory purposes RAB (Regulatory Asset Base) through the application of a rate of return on the same; • economic-technical depreciation, to cover investment costs; • operational costs, to cover operating costs. The main tariff elements based on the regulatory framework (Resolution No. 570/2019/R/gas and subsequent amendments) are shown below:
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - OPERATING SEGMENT OPERATING PERFORMANCE
37 • Resolution No. 570/2019/R/gas approved the regulation of tariffs for gas distribution and metering services for the fifth regulatory period 2020-2025, and Resolution No. 737/2022/R/gas approved the intra-period update of the tariff regulation for gas distribution and metering services for the second half-period 2023-2025 of the current regulatory period. The regulatory period was extended to the end of 2027 by Resolution 221/2025/R/gas. • Resolution No. 614/2021/R/com approved the criteria for determining and updating the rate of return on invested capital for infrastructure services in the electricity and gas sectors for the period 2022-2027 (TIWACC 2022-2027). The 2PWACC is divided into two sub-periods, each lasting three years. While maintaining a three-yearly update frequency for the parameters relating to the macroeconomic and fiscal context, the Authority has introduced a mechanism for the annual update (at least for the first three years) of the macroeconomic variables, if the cumulative effect of the parameter update leads to a change in the WACC above a threshold of 50 bps (basis point spread). • With Resolution No. 513/2024/R/com, the Authority approved the update of the parameters relevant for determining the rate of return on invested capital for the sub-period 2025-2027, and of the beta asset parameter, with reference to the infrastructure services of the electricity and gas sectors. With reference to the beta parameter, for the gas distribution sector alone, the Authority deemed it appropriate to reduce the value, setting it at 0.41 (compared to the value of 0.439 for the three-year period 2022-2024). The trigger mechanism was also confirmed for the sub-period 2025–2027 by reducing the trigger activation threshold, set by Resolution 614/2021/R/Com, from 50 bps to 30 bps. For the gas distribution sector, the Resolution sets the WACC value for the year 2025 at 5.9%. • With Resolution No. 221/2025/R/gas, the Authority initiated proceedings for the formulation of measures concerning tariffs and service quality for gas distribution and metering services for the sixth regulatory period and approved the extension of the fifth regulatory period to the years 2026 and 2027, initiating the procedure to assess the amendments to the TUDG necessary for the extension of the validity of the regulation in force for those years. With Resolution 532/2025, the Authority defined the criteria for the extension of the fifth regulatory period to 2027. The main changes include the elimination

38 of the X-factor applied to all recognised operational cost items, which will remain unchanged in real terms, the confirmation of the rules for area management and the reduction from 40 to 35 euro of the advance grant for the verification of large meters. The criteria for managing historical grants and costs for smart meters are also confirmed, while the new categories of investments related to biomethane will be defined in a subsequent measure. For Sardinia, the tariff alignment with the Southern Area remains valid in 2026–2027. Finally, from 2027, the tariffs will be updated using the IPCA Italia index, based on the most recent data and forecasts from the Bank of Italy. • Italgas Reti has challenged, with additional grounds, Resolution No. 513/2024/R/com by means of which the Authority, after updating, for the sub-period 2025–2027, the parameters common to all regulated services and after reviewing the criteria for updating the βasset (beta asset) parameter for all regulated infrastructure services in the electricity and gas sectors, updated the WACC for the year 2025. The Regional Administrative Court of Milan has set the hearing for discussion for 23 September 2026. • With Resolution No. 144/2026/R/gas, the Authority orders the disbursement of the second advance, equal to 40% of the total grant, to the pilot projects admitted to the incentive mechanism for innovations in the gas sector, also awarding grants to projects of the Italgas Group; it also extends the experimental phase by six months (until 30 June 2027), realigns the final reporting deadlines and establishes payment deadlines for the CSEA, ensuring continuity and consistency with the original approach to the experiments. • With Resolution No. 143/2026/R/gas, the Authority determined the provisional reference tariffs for gas distribution and metering services for the year 2026, calculated on the basis of the preliminary balance sheet data for the year 2025 and considering the requests for data correction by 15 February 2026. • On 2 May 2025, Italgas Reti filed an appeal with the Veneto Regional Administrative Court for the annulment, after suspension, of the call for tenders and its annexes, of all the tender documentation in the VICENZA 2 – North – East territorial area, as well as of any other act and/or measure predating, consequent to and/or connected to it, with a hearing initially set for 21 May 2025 for the precautionary ruling and then for 8 October 2025 for the discussion on the merits. Following the filing of the appeal, the Contracting Authority suspended the tender to update the documentation, extending the deadline for submitting bids to 2 July 2026. Following the publication of the updated documentation, an appeal was filed on additional grounds to challenge in particular one of the award sub-criteria relating to the technical offer. The hearing was held on 15 April 2026 and the decision is pending publication. Tariff regulation – Greece The licences held by the Enaon Group distributor extend throughout the Greek territory. The expiry and renewal of gas distribution licences in the Hellenic Republic are governed by the Greek Energy Law, partially amended (i.e. Articles 2, 80Γ and 88) by Law No. 4812/2021, enacted on 30 June 2021. According to this amendment, the duration of the licence is set at at least twenty years and may be extended to a further thirty years upon the expiry of the original licence, following an application by the licence holder. In this case, the licence holder must submit a request for extension one year before the due date (31 December 2043). The renewal takes place through an "act with declaratory effect" issued by the Regulatory Authority for

39 Energy (RAE), the Greek regulator, pursuant to Articles 5-9-13-16 of the Regulation of Natural Gas Permits (Decision of the Minister No. 178065/2018, published in the Official Gazette 3430/2018). Law 4951-2022 (Article 134) also introduced the provision of a reimbursement, for the benefit of the outgoing operator, of the residual value of its assets, equal to the value of the RAB16 at the end of the licence plus a premium of at least 15%. Law 5037 ΦEK A 78 of 29 March 2023 renamed the Regulatory Authority for Energy as the Regulatory Authority for Waste, Energy and Water (RAEWW) and expanded its scope with responsibility for water services and municipal waste management. The distribution and metering of natural gas in Greece is regulated by the RAEWW: its functions include the determination and updating of tariffs, as well as the preparation of rules for access to infrastructure and for the provision of related services (e.g. Distribution Code - RAE Decision 589/2016). By decision E-14/2024, the RAEWW announced the WACC to be applied to the RAB for the DSOs of the Enaon Group, setting it at 8.38% for the years 2024, 2025 and 2026 (compared to 8.57% in 2023). The decision was taken in accordance with the provisions of Article 260 of Law 5037/2023. The duration of a tariff regulation period is set at four years: the regulation period in progress at the end of the financial year is that relating to the years 2023–2026. In particular, Greek regulation provides that, prior to the start of each regulatory period, the operator shall submit to the Authority, for approval, the Development Plan and the Business Plan for the subsequent regulatory period, on the basis of which the relevant distribution tariffs and the operator's regulated revenues for the relevant period are determined. If there are differences between the assumptions made in the Development Plan and in the Business Plan compared to the actual data for the reference period, a deviation is generated between the actual revenues and the regulated revenues: this deviation (defined as the "recoverable difference"), whether positive or negative, is taken into account in the definition of the regulated revenues for the subsequent regulatory period and will therefore be recovered or returned within the tariffs for the following four years. To meet the need not to place the costs of the distribution service and metering on (only) end customers located in disadvantaged areas with limited infrastructure development, the Authority, by Decision No. 485/22, Article 20, provided for the possibility of sharing any recoverable difference among all the distribution companies belonging to the same corporate Group. With Decision E-257/2024, the RAEWW revised the structure of the tariffs applied by Enaon EDA for natural gas distribution, providing, from 1 December 2024, for the progressive application of a single tariff for the same categories of users served throughout the territory managed. The tariffs for the years 2025 and 2026 of the 2023–2026 regulatory period will be determined using the latest available percentage change in the average annual consumer price index (CPI) published by the Hellenic Statistical Authority. The tariff system provides in particular that the reference revenues for the formulation of tariffs are determined in such a way as to cover the costs incurred by the operator and allow a fair return on invested capital. In particular, the following tariff components are identified: 16 Value of the net fixed assets of the assets net of grants, capitalised interest, revenues relating to connection and/or user grants and all costs relating to design. In addition to the RAB, a percentage of the Working Capital calculated parametrically.

40 • the cost of net invested capital for regulatory purposes, the RAB (Regulatory Asset Base), through the application of a rate of return (WACC); the WACC is nominal pre-tax and is defined ex ante for the regulatory period; • economic-technical depreciation, to cover investment costs; • the operational costs, covering the operating costs, defined for the subsequent regulatory period, are not re-verified in the final balance; in this way, the operator can retain the efficiency obtained during the regulatory period; • additional revenues obtained from activities other than Gas distribution are separated; • the recoverable difference defined by the difference between the regulated revenues (calculated in the final balance) and the revenues obtained from billing; • connection fees may be incurred by the distribution operator and, in this case, considered for the purpose of determining the RAB if the operator's penetration rate is low (letter K) point XIII RAE Decision 328/2016 - Approval of the pricing regulation).

The functions of regulation and control of water services include the determination and updating of tariffs, as well as the preparation of rules to guarantee the conditions of efficiency and service quality and the protection of the interests of users and consumers. The tariff system provides that the responsibility for submitting tariff proposals to the Authority lies with the Governing Body of the Optimal Territorial Area (EGA), which approves the data and documents prepared by the managing entity. For the fourth regulation period (2024-2029), the Authority has adopted the MTI-4 Water Tariff Method, introduced by Resolution No. 639/2023/R/idr of 28 December 2023.

45 With Resolution No. 639/2023/R/IDR of 28 December 2023, the Authority approved the water tariff method for the fourth regulatory period 2024-2029 (MTI-4), defining the rules for calculating the costs eligible for recognition in the tariff. With Resolution No. 358/2024/R/idr of 10 September 2024, the Authority initiated a procedure for the ex officio determination of the tariff multiplier for water service operations that fall within the cases specified in paragraph 5.8 of Resolution 639/2023/R/idr. With this measure, the Tariffs and Environmental Fees Department was also given a mandate to proceed with issuing a warning to the Area Governance Bodies or other competent entities in the event of non-compliance with their obligations to update the tariff arrangement following a request from the operator, pursuant to paragraph 5.6 of Resolution 639/2023/R/IDR. On 12 September 2024, the Authority therefore gave notice to both the Ente Idrico Campano (EIC) and the Sicilian Region to comply within the following 30 days, following the submission of a tariff update request by Nepta and Siciliacque to their respective Area Governance Bodies and to the Authority. After this deadline, the two Bodies requested additional time from the Authority to evaluate the regulatory schemes proposed by the Companies for the period 2024-2029, highlighting the elements that would not allow them to proceed with the tariff approval. The operators are awaiting a ruling from the Authority following the formal responses submitted by both the EIC and the Region of Sicily to the notices received. On the other hand, with regard to Acqua Campania and Acqualatina, the Area Governance Body has already approved the tariffs relating to MTI-4. With Resolution No. 570/2024/R/IDR of 17 December 2024, the Authority identified the theoretical purchase mix for defining the reference cost of electricity for the purpose of calculating the electricity adjustments for the year 2027, in accordance with the provisions of the MTI-4 Water Tariff Method. With Resolution No. 582/2025/R/IDR of 23 December 2025, the Authority approved the criteria for the first biennial update of the tariff arrangements for the water service, pursuant to the tariff method for the fourth regulatory period MTI-4. In particular, the Authority has defined: the monetary adjustments for updating the operating costs, the costs of fixed assets and the annual growth limit of the tariff multiplier; the procedures for updating the operating costs and the adjustment components, according to criteria for promoting efficiency; the measures aimed at ensuring coordination

Concessions As of 30 June 2026, Nepta manages the Services relating to the aqueduct of 5 Municipalities in the Province of Caserta: Caserta, Baia e Latina, Casaluce, Galluccio and Roccaromana. The concessions expired naturally during 2020 and 2021, therefore, the management is extended, under a prorogatio regime, until the assignment of the same to the new Water Service Operator in the District of Caserta. Acqua Campania manages the concession in western Campania, in Naples and Caserta, relating to the collection, purification, supply and transport of drinking water destined for water distribution companies. For the Company, the concession, which had expired, was further extended to 31 December 2026. The associated company Acqualatina is the operator of the Water Service in the territory of ATO4 Lazio Meridionale – Latina, with a managed territory of 38 municipalities. The associated company Siciliacque is the concessionaire of the forty-year service of collection, storage, purification and supply in the Sicily Region.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - RISK MANAGEMENT
47 Risk management Italgas has adopted an Internal Control and Risk Management System integrated into the organisational, administrative and accounting structure and, more generally, a corporate governance system that ensures compliance with laws and company procedures, as well as the protection of company assets, and contributes to the management of activities by providing soundness to the economic, equity and financial data processed. The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Function is responsible for overseeing the Group's integrated risk management processes. The activity of ERM focuses on the definition of a homogeneous and cross-cutting risk assessment model, on the identification and prioritisation of risks together with the Group functions concerned, on ensuring the consolidation of mitigation actions and on the implementation of a reporting system. In addition, the ERM Function carries out a specific in-depth analysis of the Risks and opportunities related to the Strategic Plan. The ERM methodology adopted by the Italgas Group is in line with the reference models and existing international best practices (in particular, the 2017 COSO framework relating to Enterprise Risk Management, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organisations of the Treadway Commission, and ISO 31000:2018). The Enterprise Risk Management function prepares specific summary reports and shares them with the various levels of the company. Risks are updated on a quarterly, half-yearly or annual basis depending on their significance and based on the occurrence of specific events potentially impacting the business or changes in the context. The results that emerge in relation to the main Risks and the related management plans are presented to the Control and Risks and Related Party Transactions Committee at each update. In addition, the risk mapping and related management strategies are periodically presented to the Board of Statutory Auditors and the Supervisory Body of Italgas and to the Boards of Statutory Auditors and the Supervisory Bodies of the subsidiaries.

ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - BUSINESS OUTLOOK
51 Business outlook In the coming years, in a rapidly changing energy landscape marked by geopolitical instability, macroeconomic uncertainty and a structural acceleration of energy demand driven in part by AI, the Group is preparing to further consolidate its role as a European leader in gas distribution through management increasingly oriented towards digital innovation, the spread of artificial intelligence and sustainability, supported by a major investment programme (13 billion euros planned for the period 2026-2032) and processes aimed at operational efficiency. The Group will also continue to invest in smart technologies for network management, focusing on automation, remote monitoring, predictive analytics and the upgrade and digitalisation of infrastructure, also with a view to participating in ATEM tenders and integrating the assets acquired. The increasing adoption of solutions based on Artificial Intelligence, the core of the Group's operating model, is an enabling factor for improving service quality, reducing operating costs and achieving operational efficiencies, estimated at 280 million euro by 2032 (compared to the aggregate cost base of the two Groups as at 31 December 2023). AI is progressively integrated into network management systems and business processes, including through the development of “agentic” AI systems, enabling the optimisation of energy flows – which will integrate incremental shares of green molecules (biomethane, hydrogen and synthetic methane) – and the anticipation of failures or anomalies, thus contributing to increased infrastructure resilience and network safety. In its growth path, Italgas confirms the integration of ESG principles into its strategy and Transition Plan, with ambitious targets for reducing energy consumption and emissions and with a commitment to achieving climate neutrality (Net Zero) by 2050. The most recent estimates available indicate that, for 2026, demand for natural gas in Italy will be overall stable or slightly higher than in 2025, with different trends between the consumption sectors; at the same time, in the Greek market, the role of gas in the energy system is confirmed, as is a dynamic of development of the distribution networks that is functional to the security of supply, the diversification of sources and the energy transition process. In this context, the initiatives to diversify sources and strengthen energy infrastructure at national and European level, together with investments in digitisation and network resilience, do not reveal any significant elements of discontinuity or critical issues within the scope of the Group's assets. Italgas continues to monitor the evolution of the international geopolitical context, with particular reference to the Middle East and Ukraine, assessing its potential impacts on the energy system, without any significant effects on Operational management or on the execution of the investment programme having emerged at present.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT 2026 - BUSINESS OUTLOOK
52 On the financial front, in a still-volatile global environment, the Group plans to reduce leverage (Net debt/RAB) in the medium term, while maintaining the financial flexibility to seize any growth opportunities. The average cost of debt is expected to rise moderately, reflecting the updated macroeconomic environment, and is forecast to exceed 3% by 2032. The future of the Italgas Group will therefore be characterised by a strengthening of industrial leadership, a high level of infrastructure integration and a strong drive towards digital innovation, supported by an expected growth in the main economic and financial indicators. The constant attention to the needs of the territories served, the ability to adapt to regulatory changes and the willingness to invest in innovative solutions are the foundations on which Italgas intends to build solid and responsible growth, prioritising quality, safety and the creation of sustainable value in the long term.

ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 59 Notes to the condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements Company information The Italgas Group, consisting of the parent company Italgas S.p.A. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to "Italgas", "Italgas Group" or "Group"), operates mainly in the regulated activities of natural gas distribution and water service. Italgas S.p.A. is a joint-stock company organised under the laws of the Italian Republic, listed on the Milan Stock Exchange and domiciled in Milan, at Via Carlo Bo 11. CDP S.p.A. exercises de facto control of Italgas S.p.A. pursuant to IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”. As at 30 June 2026, CDP S.p.A. holds 25.9% of the share capital of Italgas S.p.A. directly, through CDP Reti S.p.A.21, and 3.57% indirectly, through Snam S.p.A. The parent company Italgas S.p.A. is not subject to management and coordination activities. Italgas S.p.A. exercises management and coordination activities with respect to its subsidiaries pursuant to Article 2497 et seq. of the Italian Civil Code. 1) Preparation and measurement criteria The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements as at 30 June 2026 have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. The valuation criteria adopted for the preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those used for the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2025, to which reference should be made for a more detailed description. With reference to income taxes, in accordance with the provisions of IAS 34, the tax expense for the interim period was determined by applying the best estimate of the annual effective tax rate expected for the year to the pre-tax result for the half-year. The notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are presented in summary form. The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, approved by the Board of Directors of Italgas S.p.A. at the meeting of 27 July 2026, were subjected to a limited review by Deloitte & Touche S.p.A. The limited audit involves an amount of work significantly reduced compared to the full audit required by generally accepted auditing standards. The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements adopts the euro as the presentation currency. The values of the items and the related notes, taking into account their significance, are expressed in thousands of euro. 2) Change in accounting values The same consolidation principles and valuation criteria are applied in the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements as those adopted for the preparation of the last Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, to which reference is made, with the exception of the international accounting standards that came into force on 1 January 2026, as illustrated in section 4 below. Consistent with the disclosures provided in the Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2025 with reference to the measurement period required by IFRS 3, on 31 March 2026, the Group completed the purchase price allocation process, Purchase Price Allocation – PPA, relating to the acquisition of the 2i Rete Gas Group. The finalisation of the PPA led to the recognition of some adjustments to the values previously recorded in the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2025; in accordance with IFRS 3, these adjustments were accounted for retroactively as if the definitive recognition and measurement of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed had been completed at the acquisition date. Consequently, the comparative economic data for the first half of 2025 have been restated, where necessary, to reflect the effects deriving from the finalisation of the PPA, mainly attributable to the allocation of the consideration to fixed assets and the related economic effects, including depreciation.

The amendments clarify the classification and measurement of financial instruments, in particular for assets with returns linked to ESG objectives, specify the accounting for electronically settled liabilities and introduce greater disclosure requirements, especially for equity instruments at FVOCI. ii. “Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards - Volume 11”, published on 18 July 2024, containing amendments to IFRS 1, IFRS 7, IFRS 9, IFRS 10 and IAS 7 aimed at clarifying and standardising the application of the standards, with a focus on hedge accounting, disclosure, derecognition, determination of control and statement of cash flows. iii. targeted amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, published on 18 December 2024, to improve the accounting representation of electricity supply contracts dependent on natural factors, such as Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) linked to wind and solar energy. These are targeted updates for electricity supply contracts linked to natural factors (e.g. PPA), with clarifications on the "own use" rules, the possibility of hedge accounting and new disclosures to better represent the effects on results and cash flows. The adoption of these amendments and changes to the accounting standards had no effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group. IFRS accounting standards, amendments and interpretations endorsed by the European Union, not yet mandatorily applicable and not adopted in advance by the Group As of the reference date of this document, the competent bodies of the European Union have completed the endorsement process necessary for the adoption of the amendments and standards described below, but these standards are not mandatorily applicable and have not been adopted in advance by the Group as of 30 June 2026. On 9 April 2024, the IASB published IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which will replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, and which aims to improve the presentation of financial statement formats, with particular reference to the Income Statement format. The standard introduces a new structure for the Income Statement based on the distinction between operational, investment and financial activities, accompanied by mandatory subtotals such as operating result and EBIT, to improve transparency and comparability. It also strengthens the disclosure on management performance indicators and defines stricter criteria for the aggregation and disaggregation of items. Finally, it provides for changes to the statement of cash flows, requiring the use of the operating result as the basis in the indirect method and limiting the classification options for specific items, for a more consistent representation of cash flows.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 61 The new standard will enter into force on 1 January 2027. Italgas is conducting preliminary analyses on the expected impacts, which are expected to mainly concern the presentation of the Income Statement, the statement of cash flows and the performance disclosures. Other IFRS developments IFRS 20 Regulatory Assets & Liabilities IFRS 20, published by the IASB on 27 May 2026, governs the accounting for assets with regulated tariffs, introducing the obligation to recognise in the financial statements the temporary differences between the time when the Services are provided (and the costs incurred) and the time when the related remuneration through tariffs takes place. These differences generate regulatory assets, which represent the right to recover amounts in the future, and regulatory liabilities, which reflect the obligation to return or offset amounts already collected. These items are recorded in the balance sheet and measured on the basis of future cash flows discounted at the rates defined by the regulator, while there is a specific item in the Income Statement that reflects the annual net change. The standard also requires detailed disclosures in the notes to the financial statements on the nature of the temporary differences and the measurement criteria adopted. The application of the standard is mandatory from 1 January 2029, with the possibility of early adoption. Italgas will start preliminary analyses of the expected impacts in the coming months. Changes to the fair value option for investments in associates and joint ventures On 26 June 2026, the IASB published an amendment to IAS 28 to clarify which entities may apply fair value measurement through profit and loss (FVTPL) to equity investments in associates and joint ventures as an alternative to the equity method. In particular, the amendment clarifies that the "similar entities" of IAS 28 permitted to adopt the FVTPL option include entities whose main activity is to invest in specific asset classes, as defined by IFRS 18. The clarification eliminates the differences in interpretation that have emerged in practice and ensures application consistent with IFRS 18, since if equity investments in associates and joint ventures fall within the investing category under IFRS 18, the measurement is that of the equity method; if the same equity investments fall within the investor's main activities (a typical case being that of investment funds, venture capital companies, etc.), the permitted measurement is that at fair value. The amendment applies at the same time as the first adoption of IFRS 18. 5) Business combinations The Group completed the purchase price allocation (PPA) process relating to the acquisition of 2i Rete Gas S.p.A., finalised on 1 April 2025. As of 31 March 2026, the effects of the PPA were therefore definitively recognised, confirming the values as of 31 December 2025, determined through the application of the acquisition method, which provides for the recognition of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at fair value at the acquisition date, as well as the determination of goodwill as the excess between the consideration transferred and the Group's share of the fair value of the net assets acquired. 6) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents, amounting to 1,254,313 thousand euro (531,933 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025), relate to current account deposits held with credit institutions. Cash and cash equivalents are not subject to restrictions on their uses, with the exception of the amount of 55,650 thousand euro (44,555 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) relating to collections received on behalf of the Campania Region, for the so-called contouring activities, and not yet paid to the Region at the end of the financial year. 7) Current financial assets Current financial assets, amounting to 4,065 thousand euro (4,004 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025), mainly relate to financial receivables from credit institutions that can be disposed of in the short term. 8) Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables, amounting to 898,802 thousand euro (1,407,264 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025), break down as follows:

Receivables from the Public administration (4,450 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 and 2,801 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) relate to receivables from Municipalities, mainly for the fee for the occupation of public spaces and areas ("COSAP"). The receivables from users of the Campania aqueduct formerly known as Casmez (Cassa del Mezzogiorno), amounting to 10,556 thousand euro (9,512 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025), refer to the metering service (system for recording drinking water consumption) managed in the name and on behalf of the Campania Region.

The concession established the unconditional right of the operator (Italgas Reti S.p.A.) to receive this amount on the due date. Italgas Reti filed an application for an injunction to obtain the amount from Roma Capitale; the Court of Rome issued the relevant injunction during the first half of 2026.

The Revolving Credit Facility refinances the 600 million euro line signed in 2024 and strengthens the Group's financial flexibility in line with the requirements of the rating agencies. On 9 April 2026, a new fixed-rate bond issue of 750 million euro was successfully placed, with a due date of 16 April 2032 and an annual coupon of 3.625%. The transaction, which recorded demand more than 2.5 times the supply, showed a high quality and wide geographical diversification of institutional investors. The bond, as part of the EMTN Programme approved by CONSOB in July 2025, represents the first dematerialised issue by an Italian corporate with securities governed by English law and listed on the MOT of Borsa Italiana. The placement was handled by a pool of international banks. There are no non-current bank loans denominated in a currency other than the euro. There are no breaches of clauses related to loan agreements. Current financial liabilities Current financial liabilities amounting to 1,663,790 thousand euro (975,322 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) mainly relate to the current portions of non-current liabilities. The increase of 688,468 thousand euro is mainly attributable to the combined effect of (i) the increase in the value of the bonds and the related interest to be paid in 12 months, (ii) the increase in the short-term portion relating to long-term loans from banks, including the portions of the bonds that become due within the following 12 months, (iii) the decrease in other items, such as financial payables under IFRS 16. There are no current financial liabilities denominated in a currency other than the euro. Non-current financial liabilities Non-current financial liabilities total 10,442,934 thousand euro (10,440,320 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025). The change derives from the combined effect (i) of the reclassification to the short-term portion of the bonds issued in 2017 (1,229,165 thousand euro) and (ii) of the aforementioned pre-funding transaction of 8 April 2026. Net of financial payables for leased assets, the increase is mainly attributable to the increase in bonds of 52,632 thousand euro, offset by the decrease in payables to banks of 48,780 thousand euro. Below is the analysis of the bonds amounting to 9,343,012 thousand euro, with an indication of the issuing company, the year of issue, the currency, the average interest rate and the due date.

ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 70 There are no breaches of clauses related to the loan agreements. Other shareholders loans of 56,116 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 (44,620 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) refer to the amounts due for collections to be retroceded in relation to the contouring service performed in the name and on behalf of the Campania Region. There are no breaches of clauses related to the loan agreements. For more information, see the following paragraph "Financial covenants and negative pledge contractual clauses". Breakdown of total financial liabilities by type of interest rate As at 30 June 2026, fixed-rate payables represent 80.8% of total financial liabilities (79.8% as at 31 December 2025), while floating-rate payables stand at 19.2% (20.2% as at 31 December 2025). Financial covenants and negative pledge contractual clauses As at 30 June 2026, Italgas has bilateral and syndicated loan agreements in place with banks and other lending institutions that are not secured by collateral. There are no loan agreements containing financial covenants, with the exception of the EIB loan signed by Toscana Energia, which provide for compliance with certain financial covenants. In particular, this loan agreement with the EIB provides for compliance with financial covenants, such as the ratio between (i) the net financial position (calculated on an aggregate basis for the entire Italgas Group) and EBITDA, as defined in the contractual documentation, (ii) the sum of FFO and financial expense and the sum of repayments of the principal amount of financial debt over the last 12 months, as defined in the contractual documentation, and (iii) net financial position and RAB, as defined in the contractual documentation. As at the verification date of 30 June 2026, these financial parameters are met. Some of the loan agreements provide, inter alia, for compliance with: (i) negative pledge commitments under which Italgas and its subsidiaries are subject to limitations on the creation of security interests or other encumbrances on all or part of their respective assets, shares or commodities; (ii) pari passu and change of control clauses; (iii) limitations on certain extraordinary transactions that the Company and its subsidiaries may carry out. In addition, limited to the EIB loans taken out by the Italgas Group, the lender has the right to request additional guarantees if the credit rating assigned to Italgas is lower than BBB- (Fitch Ratings Limited) or Baa3 (Moody's) or in the event of the loss of any rating and, if it does not consider these additional guarantees satisfactory, the European Investment Bank would have the right to request the immediate early repayment of the loans it has disbursed. Failure to comply with the commitments envisaged for these loans, in some cases only if such failure is not remedied within the stipulated time periods, as well as the occurrence of other cases such as, by way of example, cross-default events, some of which are subject to specific materiality thresholds, give rise to a default by Italgas and Toscana Energia and, possibly, may result in the immediate repayment of the relevant loan. As at 30 June 2026, the covenants and commitments described above have been complied with. The bonds issued by Italgas S.p.A. and Italgas Reti S.p.A. relate to the securities issued under the Euro Medium Term Notes programme. The commitments provided for in the regulations governing the programme's securities are those typical of international market practice and concern, inter alia, negative pledge and pari passu clauses.

The reduction, amounting to 4,930 thousand euro, is mainly due to uses against expenses for the year (5,406 thousand euro). Discounting was carried out using a rate curve representative of the risk-free rate. Risk provision for litigation (9,083 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 and 9,165 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) includes the expenses that the Group has estimated it will have to incur in relation to ongoing legal proceedings.

The indemnity, paid in the form of capital, is equal to the sum of the provision amounts calculated on the remuneration items paid in connection with the employment relationship and revalued up to the time of termination of the employment relationship. As a result of the legislative changes introduced from 1 January 2007, for companies with more than 50 employees, a significant portion of the accruing employee severance pay is classified as a defined contribution plan, since the company's obligation consists exclusively of paying contributions to pension funds, or to INPS.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 74 The FISDE (7,310 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 and 7,044 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) includes the estimate of the expense, determined on an actuarial basis, relating to the contributions to be paid for the benefit of executives in service23 and retired executives. The FISDE provides supplementary health benefits of a financial nature to Eni Group executives24 and to retired executives whose last employment relationship was as an executive with the Eni Group. The FISDE is financed through the payment of: (i) contributions paid by the participating companies; (ii) contributions paid by Members for themselves and for their families; (iii) ad hoc contributions for specific benefits. The amount of the liability and the cost of care are determined by taking as a reference, as an approximation of the estimate of the health care expenses provided by the fund, the contribution that the company pays to pensioners. The Gas Fund (10,236 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 and 11,637 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) concerns the estimate, made on an actuarial basis, of the expense to be borne by the employer resulting from the abolition, as at 1 December 2015, of the relevant fund pursuant to Law No. 125 of 6 August 2015. In particular, the Law, in Articles 9-decies and 9-undecies, established that the employer is responsible for: (i) an extraordinary contribution to cover the expenses relating to the supplementary pension benefits in place at the time of the abolition of the Gas Fund for the years from 2015 to 202025; (ii) in favour of members or those continuing to contribute voluntarily, who as at 30 November 2015 do not have the right to supplementary pension benefits from the abolished Gas Fund, an amount equal to 1% for each year of membership of the supplementary fund multiplied by the social security taxable income relating to the same supplementary fund for the year 2014, to be allocated to the employer or to the supplementary pension scheme. At present, the criteria, procedures and time periods for payment of the extraordinary contribution have not yet been announced. The workers' choices on the allocation of the amounts (supplementary pension or with the employer) were concluded, as required by law, on 14 February 2016. The other provisions for employee benefits (5,946 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 and 4,937 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) relate to seniority bonuses and long-term incentive plans (LTI). The long-term incentive plans (IAS 19) provide, three years after the grant, for the payment of a variable monetary benefit linked to a company performance parameter, not linked to the share price. Obtaining the benefit is linked to the achievement of certain future performance levels, and is conditional on the beneficiary remaining with the company for the three years following the grant (the so-called "Vesting period"). This benefit is allocated pro-rata temporis over the three-year period based on the final performance parameters. Seniority bonuses are benefits paid upon reaching a minimum period of service in the company and are paid in kind. Deferred cash incentive plans and long-term cash incentive plans, as well as seniority bonuses, qualify, in accordance with IAS 19, as Other long-term benefits. 24) Equity Equity, amounting to 4,117,078 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 (4,165,951 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025), breaks down as follows: (thousands of €) As of 31 December 2025 As of 30 June 2026 Equity attributable to the Owners of the parent company 3,818,913 3,769,822 Share capital 1,257,355 1,258,392 Legal reserve 200,896 218,701 Share premium reserve 1,387,572 1,391,432 Reserve Cash flow hedge on derivative contracts 9,109 8,615 Consolidation reserve (323,907) (323,907) Reserve for business combinations under common control (349,839) (349,839) Stock grant reserve 11,002 11,391 OCI Fair value measurement reserve for equity investments (660) (549) Other reserves 14,427 13,430 Retained earnings 948,789 1,164,248 23 For executives in service, the contributions are calculated starting from the year in which the employee will retire and refer to the years of service already provided. 24 The fund provides the same benefits to the Executives of the Italgas Group. 25 Article 9-quinquiesdecies also provides that "... If the monitoring reveals that the extraordinary contribution referred to in paragraph 9-decies is insufficient to cover the related expenses, by directorial decree of the Ministry of Labour and Social Policies, in agreement with the Ministry of Economic Development and the Ministry of Economy and Finance, the amount of the extraordinary contribution, the criteria for its distribution among employers, and the timing and methods of payment of the extraordinary contribution to INPS shall be redetermined ”.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 75 OCI Reserve for remeasurement of defined-benefit plans for employees (8,151) (8,348) Net profit 672,320 386,256 to be deducted - Treasury shares Equity attributable to non-controlling interests 347,038 347,256 4,165,951 4,117,078 Share capital The share capital as at 30 June 2026 consists of 1,016,523,089 shares with no nominal value (1,015,686,402 as at 31 December 2025), with a total value of 1,258,392 thousand euro (1,257,355 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025). On 6 May 2024, the Italgas Shareholders' Meeting approved the 2024-2025 Co-investment Plan and the proposal for a free increase in share capital, in one or more tranches, to serve the same 2024-2025 Co-investment Plan for a maximum nominal amount of 3,720,000 euro, through the issue of a maximum of 3,000,000 new ordinary shares to be allocated, pursuant to Article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code, for a corresponding maximum amount taken from the retained earnings reserve, exclusively to the beneficiaries of the Plan, i.e. employees of the Company and/or Group companies. On 3 March 2026, in execution of the 2021-2023 Co-investment Plan approved by the Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 20 April 2021, the Board of Directors determined the free allocation of a total of 647,789 new ordinary shares of the Company to the beneficiaries of the Plan itself (the so-called second cycle of the Plan) and resolved to execute the third tranche of the share capital increase approved by the aforementioned Shareholders' Meeting, for a nominal amount of 803,258.36 euro taken from retained earnings reserves. At its ordinary meeting on 10 April 2025, the Shareholders' Meeting of Italgas S.p.A. approved the 2025-2027 employee share ownership plan called the "IGrant Plan 2025-2027", which provides for the allocation of ordinary shares to Group employees, excluding senior management, using shares deriving from two related share capital increases pursuant to Article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code. Starting in September 2025, Italgas implemented the operations envisaged by the Employee Share Ownership Plan (PAD), approved with the aim of encouraging the direct involvement of Group personnel in the creation of value in the medium to long term. During 2026, the new subscription cycle envisaged by the IGrant 2025-2027 Plan was also launched, in continuity with the previous allocations, confirming the Group's commitment to promoting the widespread participation of employees in value creation and to strengthening the sense of belonging. In addition, a further capital increase of 234,233 euro was completed for the allocation of ESG shares in execution of this plan. Legal reserve The Legal Reserve as at 30 June 2026 amounts to 218,701 thousand euro. The increase of 17,805 thousand euro relates to the resolution of the Shareholders' Meeting of 21 April 2026. Share premium reserve The Share premium reserve of 1,391,432 thousand euro (1,387,572 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) was created following the purchase of the equity investment in Italgas Reti S.p.A. The increase of 3,860 thousand euro compared to 31 December 2025 is mainly related to the implementation of the co-investment plans for 2,779 thousand euro and the implementation of the employee share ownership plan for 1,384 thousand euro. Reserve Cash flow hedge on derivative contracts The reserve, amounting to 8,615 thousand euro (9,109 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025), includes the fair value of the IRS derivative net of the related tax effect and changes with the accounting of cash flows deriving from instruments that, for the purposes of IFRS 9, are designated as "cash flow hedging instruments". The related Tax effect is reported under the item "Tax effect" of the "Components that can be reclassified to the Income Statement" in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Consolidation reserve The negative reserve from first-time consolidation, amounting to 323,907 thousand euro, was determined at the time of first-time consolidation (2016) following the sale by Snam S.p.A. to Italgas S.p.A. of 38.87% of the equity investment in Italgas Reti S.p.A. (it includes the difference between the purchase cost of the equity investment in Italgas Reti and the related net assets attributable to the group).
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 76 Reserve for business combinations under common control The reserve for business combinations under common control, negative for 349,839 thousand euro, relates to the purchase from Snam S.p.A. of the 38.87% equity investment in Italgas Reti S.p.A. which took place in 2016. In this regard, it should be noted that the acquisition of the natural gas distribution activities took place through three simultaneous transactions (contribution, sale and demerger) of the Equity investment held by Snam S.p.A. in Italgas Reti S.p.A. in favour of Italgas S.p.A. This transaction resulted in the deconsolidation by Snam of the natural gas distribution segment, and by Italgas S.p.A. the acquisition of the equity investment in Italgas Reti and, at the consolidated level, of the net assets of the gas distribution segment. It should be noted that the main shareholder of Snam, CDP, is at the same time the main shareholder of Italgas. The above description reflects an approach based on the continuity of carrying amounts (with respect to Snam) since the transaction represents, within the broader group of which Italgas is a part, a "combination of entities or business activities under common control". As a result of the transaction, the companies participating in the business combination (Snam, Italgas and Italgas Reti) remained subject to control and, therefore, fully consolidated by the same entity (CDP), pursuant to IFRS 10. Stock grant reserve The reserve of 11,391 thousand euro (11,002 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) includes the valuation pursuant to IFRS 2 of the co-investment plans approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of Italgas S.p.A. The Italgas Shareholders' Meeting of 20 April 2021 approved the 2021-2023 Co-investment Plan and the proposal for a free increase in share capital, in one or more tranches, to serve the same 2021-2023 Co-investment Plan for a maximum nominal amount of 5,580,000.00 euro, through the issue of a maximum of 4,500,000 new ordinary shares to be allocated free of charge, by means of an allocation pursuant to Article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code, for a corresponding maximum amount taken from the retained earnings reserve, exclusively to the beneficiaries of the Plan, i.e. employees of the Company and/or of Group companies. On 6 May 2024, the Italgas Shareholders' Meeting approved the 2024-2025 Co-Investment Plan and the proposal for a free increase in the share capital, in one or more tranches, to serve the same 2024-2025 Co-Investment Plan for a maximum nominal amount of 3,720,000 euro, through the issue of a maximum of 3,000,000 new ordinary shares to be allocated, pursuant to Article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code, for a corresponding maximum amount taken from the retained earnings reserve, exclusively to the beneficiaries of the Plan, i.e. employees of the Company and/or of Group companies. On 21 April 2026, in an extraordinary session, the Shareholders' Meeting of Italgas approved the 2026-2028 Co-investment Plan and the proposal for a free increase in the share capital, in one or more tranches, for a maximum nominal amount of 6,200,000 euro, through the issue of a maximum of 5,000,000 new ordinary shares to be allocated, pursuant to Article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code, for a corresponding maximum amount taken from the retained earnings reserve, exclusively to the beneficiaries of the Plan, namely employees of the Company and/or of Group companies. OCI Fair value valuation reserve for equity investments The fair value measurement reserve, negative by 549 thousand euro (-660 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025), includes the change in fair value, net of tax effects, of the minority equity investments that were designated on initial recognition as measured at FVTOCI ("fair value through other comprehensive income"). For more details, see the note "Non-current financial assets". Other reserves Other reserves mainly concern the effects deriving from the valuation of equity investments at equity. 25) Guarantees, commitments and risks The Guarantees, commitments and risks, amounting to 2,344,184 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 (2,375,610 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025), break down as follows: (thousands of €) As of 31 December 2025 As of 30 June 2026 Bank guarantees given in the interest of Group companies 579,645 577,219 Financial commitments and risks: 1,795,965 1,766,965 Commitments 1,570,004 1,549,649 Commitments for the purchase of goods and services 1,570,004 1,549,649 Risks 225,961 217,316 - for compensation and litigation 225,961 217,316 2,375,610 2,344,184
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 77 Guarantees The guarantees amounting to 577,219 thousand euro (579,645 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) mainly refer to guarantees issued in respect of sureties and other guarantees issued in the interest of the subsidiaries. In addition, it should be noted that as part of the transaction to acquire a stake in ERG's share capital and the sale of assets, Medea issued two guarantees of 66 million euro on the loan obtained from ERG in preparation for the transaction. Commitments As at 30 June 2026, commitments amount to 1,549,649 thousand euro (1,570,004 thousand euro as at 31 December 2025) and refer to commitments made with suppliers for the purchase of tangible assets and the provision of services for the purchase of property, plant, machinery and intangible assets under construction. In addition, the residual commitments undertaken by the Italgas Group with the Contracting Authorities for the implementation of investments resulting from the award of tenders for the gas distribution service amount to approximately 1,173.6 million euro. In addition, the Italgas Group has entered into commitments with the Municipalities with which there are unexpired concessions, including new natural gas supply projects, and concessions assigned under Italian Legislative Decree No. 164/2000, known as the "Letta Decree", for over 23.6 million euro. In Greece, by Decision E-22/2025 published in the Official Gazette of the Greek Government B' 2042/28.04.2025, the Development Programme of the company Enaon EDA was approved for the natural gas distribution networks of the regions of Attica, Thessaloniki, Thessaly and the rest of Greece for the period 2025-2029, for a total of 627.2 million euro in investments. As at 30 June 2026, the remaining investment commitment of the programme amounts to approximately 432.4 million euro. In compliance with the deadlines set by Greek regulation, the process of defining the Development Programme for the period 2026-2030 is underway. These investments will mainly be used for the development and upgrading of the gas distribution network in Italy and Greece. Other unvalued commitments The acquisition of the "Atem Alessandria 4" business unit by the subsidiary Italgas Reti, which took place in 2020, is subject to a price adjustment clause (so-called "earn-out") if the Atem Alessandria 4 Tender is awarded within 10 years from the date of signing and in the event that in that Tender the contracting authority recognises a reimbursement value higher than the pro forma value underlying the agreement, for the same reference year. On 27 December 2022, Plures S.p.A. (ex Alia Servizi Ambientali S.p.A.) Toscana Energia and Italgas signed a contract concerning, among other things, options, under which Italgas has the right to purchase 30,134,618 shares of Toscana Energia owned by Alia, equal to approximately 20.6099% of the share capital of Toscana Energia (the “Alia TE Shares” and the “Toscana Energia Call Option”). In accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract, on 14 January 2025, Italgas exercised the Toscana Energia Call Option by sending the relevant notification to Alia. The contractually stipulated price for the purchase of the Alia TE Shares is to be determined as the "Fair market value" on the date of execution of the Toscana Energia Call Option, calculated by an international financial institution jointly appointed by the parties. As part of the investment agreement entered into on 26 July 2022 and subsequently amended between Energetica S.p.A. and Medea S.p.A. relating to the latter's entry into the share capital of Energie Rete Gas S.r.l. ("Erg") for a 49% stake through the transfer and subsequent sale to ERG of Medea's assets and activities relating to the transport of gas ("Medea ERG Transaction"), the parties, inter alia, undertook to restore the legal situation ex ante to the Medea ERG Transaction if ERG does not obtain (i) recognition by the competent Ministry as one of ERG's natural gas regional transport infrastructure and/or services and (ii) recognition, from a tariff regulatory point of view, as a regional transport service. In 2023, Medea and ERG signed a Services contract which provides that Medea shall pay ERG a fee for the transport service provided by ERG. This agreement was necessary for the management of the transitional period; once ERG obtains the transport authorisation and tariff recognition, the contract will be terminated. On 3 November 2025, the Decree of the President of the Council of Ministers "Identification of the works and infrastructure necessary for the phase-out of the use of coal in Sardinia and the decarbonisation of the island's industrial segments" (the so-called Sardinia DPCM) was published in the Official Gazette. The measure, which applies nationally, confirms the tariff equalisation mechanism in favour of entities that carry out LNG road transport activities and the related ancillary infrastructure. The Decree also provides that within 180 days of its
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 78 entry into force, ARERA shall define the regulatory and tariff framework for the recognition of these activities as regional transport services. In light of the above, ERG can consider the "Transport Authorisation" for the activities carried out in Sardinia as acquired. In line with this framework, the pool of banks financing the ERG operation approved the extension to 30 June 2026 of the deadline for tariff recognition, also authorising the use of the financing for the purchase of the LNG plants already built by that date. With DCO no. 135/2026/R/gas, ARERA launched a consultation on the regulatory framework relating to gas infrastructure and virtual pipeline services in Sardinia, with a deadline for submitting comments set for 15 June 2026. Consequently, the deadline for obtaining the "Tariff Recognition" – as defined in the Investment Agreement – has been postponed to 31 December 2026. The purchase of the business unit to which the concessions held in Italy in the water segment belong, which took place in 2023, is subject to price adjustment clauses (so-called "earn-out") to be determined for four years according to annual measurements based on net collections on certain receivables by the associates Siciliacque and Acqualatina. Risks The risks for compensation and litigation (217,316 thousand euro) relate to possible compensation expenses as a result of ongoing legal disputes, with a low probability of the related economic risk materialising. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT Italgas has adopted an Internal Control and Risk Management System integrated into the organisational, administrative and accounting structure and, more generally, a corporate governance system that ensures compliance with laws and company procedures, as well as the protection of company assets, and contributes to the management of activities by providing solidity to the economic, equity and financial data processed. The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Function is responsible for overseeing the Group's integrated risk management processes. ERM's activity focuses on defining a homogeneous and cross-cutting risk assessment model, on identifying and prioritising risks together with the Group functions concerned, on ensuring the consolidation of mitigation actions, and on implementing a reporting system. In addition, the ERM Function carries out a specific in-depth analysis of the Risks and opportunities associated with the Strategic Plan. The ERM methodology adopted by the Italgas Group is in line with the reference models and with existing international best practices (in particular, the 2017 COSO framework relating to Enterprise Risk Management, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organisations of the Treadway Commission, and ISO 31000:2018). The Enterprise Risk Management function prepares specific summary reports and shares them with the various company levels. Risks are updated quarterly, half-yearly or annually depending on their relevance and based on the occurrence of specific events potentially impacting the business or changes in the context. The results that emerge in relation to the main Risks and the related management plans are presented to the Control and Risks and Related Party Transactions Committee at each update. In addition, the risk mapping and related management strategies are periodically presented to the Board of Statutory Auditors and the Supervisory Body of Italgas and to the Boards of Statutory Auditors and the Supervisory Bodies of the subsidiaries. The ERM operates within the broader Internal Control and Risk Management System of Italgas. In the area of business risks, the main financial risks identified, monitored and, as specified below, managed by Italgas, are the following: - the risk arising from exposure to interest rate fluctuations; - the credit risk arising from the possibility of a counterparty default; - the liquidity risk arising from the lack of financial resources to meet short-term commitments; - rating risk; - the risk of default and covenant on financial debt. Italgas' policies and principles for the management and control of the Risks arising from the financial instruments listed above are described below. In accordance with the information to be disclosed pursuant to IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”, the nature and extent of the Risks arising from these instruments are also illustrated. With reference to the other risks that characterise operations (Operational risks and risks specific to the segments in which Italgas operates), please refer to the information in the Directors’ Report in the paragraph “Uncertainties and risk management”.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 79 Interest rate risk Fluctuations in interest rates affect the Market value of the company's financial assets and liabilities and the level of total financial expense. An increase in interest rates, not reflected – in whole or in part – in the regulatory WACC, could have negative effects on the business and on the equity, economic and financial situation of the Italgas Group due to the variable component of the existing debt and for future financing. Italgas aims to maintain, when fully operational, a debt ratio between fixed and variable rates that minimises the risk of rising interest rates. As at 30 June 2026, 19.2% of financial debt is at a variable rate and 80.8% at a fixed rate. Please refer to the paragraph "Short-term and long-term financial liabilities" for further details. Credit Risk Credit Risk represents the exposure to potential losses resulting from the non-fulfilment of obligations assumed by counterparties. Failure to pay or delayed payment of the fees due could adversely affect Italgas' economic results and financial situation. The rules for user access to the gas distribution service in Italy are established by the competent regulatory authority and are set out in the Network Codes, i.e. in documents that establish, for each type of service, the rules governing the rights and obligations of the parties involved in the process of providing the services themselves, and dictate contractual clauses that reduce the risks of default by customers, such as the issuance of first-demand bank or insurance guarantees. In addition to this, in order to manage credit risk, the Group has defined procedures for monitoring and evaluating its customer portfolio. The reference markets are Italy and Greece. In the context of energy efficiency activities, credit risk is mitigated by the use of incentive instruments (mainly the Superbonus) – the latter, however, are influenced by the risk of managing the obligations that allow the tax recognition of receivables – which guarantee the financial coverage of significant portions of the amounts of the interventions. In this context, the contracts entered into by the Group include clauses that guarantee the possibility of recourse against customers in the event that the incentive cannot be obtained or is revoked. Recourse against customers, however, implies continued exposure to credit risk. As at 30 June 2026, there are no significant credit risks. It is noted that on average: (i) in Italy, 97.2% of trade receivables relating to gas distribution are settled on the due date and 99.0% within the following 4 days, (ii) in Greece, on average, 96.9% of trade receivables relating to gas distribution are settled by the due date and almost all within the following 4 days, confirming the high reliability of customers. It cannot be ruled out that Italgas may incur liabilities and/or losses resulting from the non-fulfilment of payment obligations by its customers. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk represents the risk that, due to the inability to raise new funds (funding liquidity risk) or to liquidate assets on the market (asset liquidity risk), the company fails to meet its payment commitments, resulting in an impact on the economic result in the event that the company is forced to incur additional costs to meet its commitments or, as an extreme consequence, a situation of insolvency that puts the company's business at risk. Italgas, also in light of the existing investment plans and the operations planned in the short term, does not foresee significant negative impacts on liquidity risk, taking into account the following: (i) the Company has liquidity deposited with leading credit institutions for an amount of 1,254,313 million euros as at 30 June 2026, (ii) on 8 April, Italgas signed, with leading Italian and international credit institutions, a new 900 million euro sustainability-linked revolving credit line with a maximum duration of 5 years, which refinances the 600 million euro line signed in 2024 and strengthens the Group's financial flexibility in line with the requirements of the rating agencies; (iii) on 9 April 2026, a new 750 million euro fixed-rate bond issue was successfully placed, with a due date of 16 April 2032 and an annual coupon of 3.625% (as part of the EMTN Programme approved by Consob in July 2025). Italgas' objective, on the financial front, is to establish a financial structure that, in line with the business objectives, guarantees an adequate level for the Group in terms of the duration and composition of the payables. This financial structure will be achieved by monitoring certain key figures, such as the ratio between debt and RAB, the ratio between short-term and medium- to long-term debt, the ratio between fixed-rate and variable-rate debt, and the ratio between committed bank credit and utilised bank credit. Although the Italgas Group has relationships with diversified counterparties with a high credit standing, based on a policy of managing and continuously monitoring their active credit risk, the default of an active counterparty or the difficulty of liquidating assets on the market could have negative effects on the Italgas Group's business and its equity and financial situation.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 80 Rating risk Among the factors that define the risk perceived by the market, the creditworthiness assigned to Italgas by the rating agencies plays a decisive role, as it influences its ability to access sources of financing and the related economic conditions. A worsening of this creditworthiness could therefore constitute a limitation on access to the capital market and/or an increase in the cost of financing sources, with consequent negative effects on the Group's economic, equity and financial situation. On 9 July 2026, the rating agency Moody's improved the outlook from Stable to Positive, confirming the Baa2 rating. Debt covenant and default risk There are no loan agreements containing financial covenants and/or secured by collateral, with the exception of the EIB loan taken out by Toscana Energia, which requires compliance with certain financial covenants. Some of these contracts provide, inter alia, for compliance with: (i) negative pledge commitments under which Italgas and its subsidiaries are subject to limitations on the creation of security interests or other encumbrances on all or part of their respective assets, shares or goods; (ii) pari passu and change of control clauses; (iii) limitations on certain extraordinary transactions that the company and its subsidiaries may carry out. As at 30 June 2026, these commitments have been met. The bonds issued by Italgas as at 30 June 2026 under the Euro Medium Term Notes programme require compliance with covenants typical of international market practice, which concern, inter alia, negative pledge and pari passu clauses. Failure to comply with the commitments envisaged for these loans, in some cases only if such non-compliance is not remedied within the stipulated time periods, as well as the occurrence of other cases such as, by way of example, cross - default events, some of which are subject to specific materiality thresholds, give rise to a default by Italgas and, possibly, may cause the immediate repayment of the relevant loan. With reference to EIB loans, the relevant contracts include a clause whereby, in the event of a significant loss of concessions, there is an obligation to inform the EIB and a subsequent consultation period, at the end of which early repayment of the loan may be requested. These cases are carefully monitored by the Group as part of its financial management and business performance. Disputes and other measures Italgas is a party to civil, administrative and criminal proceedings and to legal actions related to the normal conduct of its business. Based on the information currently available, and taking into account the existing risks, Italgas believes that these proceedings and actions will not have significant negative effects on its Consolidated Financial Statements. Below is a summary of the most significant proceedings; no provision of funds has been made in the financial statements for these proceedings pursuant to IAS 37, as the Company believes that the risk of losing the proceedings is possible, but not probable, or in the event that the amount of the provision cannot be reliably estimated. Civil disputes Italgas Reti S.p.A. / Municipality of Rome – Civil Court of Rome The Municipality of Rome challenged Italgas Reti for alleged contractual breaches relating to delays in the execution of the business plan for the gas distribution service, initiating proceedings in 2019 for the application of penalties. Italgas Reti rejected the claims and challenged the actions of the Municipality, which by resolution of 19 December 2019 quantified the penalties at euro 91,853,392.79. During the course of the disputes, a complex question of jurisdiction emerged, which was resolved by the Court of Cassation in 2021 in favour of the ordinary court, before which Italgas Reti resumed the proceedings. At the same time, Italgas Reti brought an action for damages against the Municipality of Rome for euro 106,290,396.25, for damages resulting from alleged breaches of contract by the Administration; this case was also resumed before the Ordinary Court of Rome and joined with the case concerning the penalties. On 24 March 2026, following an official technical consultancy, the Court of Rome, at first instance, issued a decision that significantly reduced the parties' mutual claims, with substantially compensatory effects. The deadline for filing an appeal expires in October 2026; at present, neither party has filed an appeal.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 81 Municipality of Venice / Italgas Reti S.p.A. – Court of Venice On 24 April 2019, the Municipality of Venice served Italgas Reti with a writ of summons before the Court of Venice, requesting the payment of euro 59,006,552.03 as consideration for the use of the portion of the Network transferred free of charge, with reference to the period between 1 June 2010 and 31 December 2018, as well as the additional sums accruing until the final judgment. Italgas Reti fully contested the Municipality's claim, arguing that the Network was acquired by free transfer, that there is no regulatory basis for determining the fee according to the ARERA tariffs, and that the fee relating to the assets of the so-called Block A was already included in the fee agreed by an addendum. In the alternative, the Company requested the recalculation of a possible "fair" fee for the period 1 January 2013 – 31 December 2018, following the expiry ope legis of the concession on 31 December 2012, as well as the return of any sums paid and not due. During the proceedings, the Court ordered the acquisition of further documentation and, subsequently, deemed it necessary to proceed by means of an official technical consultancy (CTU). The expert appraisal has been completed and we are awaiting the ruling. The Company, also supported by a technical-economic report issued by an expert and on the basis of an external legal opinion, does not consider an unfavourable outcome likely. Municipality of Cavallino Treporti / Italgas Reti S.p.A. – Court of Venice Following the ruling of the Council of State on the acquisition free of charge of the assets included in Block A, the Municipality of Cavallino - Treporti brought a civil action before the Court of Venice to obtain payment of the sums deemed due for the Uses of these assets by Italgas Reti. The first instance proceedings concluded with a judgment of 27 June 2022, in which the Court of Venice rejected the Municipality's claim in its entirety. The Municipality then appealed, but the Court of Appeal of Venice, in a judgment of 22 April 2024, dismissed the appeal, while raising some doubts regarding jurisdiction. Subsequently, the Municipality of Cavallino -Treporti filed an appeal with the Court of Cassation and the Court of Cassation, by order published on 9 May 2026, held that the administrative court had jurisdiction, so on 22 June 2026 the Municipality resumed the proceedings before the Veneto Regional Administrative Court. At present, the hearing is awaiting scheduling. The total amount at issue (petitum) is euro 4,699,129.00. It should be noted that Italgas Reti manages the natural gas distribution service in the territory of the Municipality of Cavallino -Treporti on the basis of the same concession agreements in place with the Municipality of Venice, as the Municipality of Cavallino - Treporti was established in 1999 through the separation of a portion of the Venetian municipal territory. The Company, supported by an external legal opinion, does not currently consider an unfavourable outcome likely. Publiservizi S.p.A. / Italgas S.p.A. – Court of Florence On 25 July 2019, Publiservizi, also as agent for other municipal shareholders of Toscana Energia, sued Italgas for an alleged breach of the shareholders' agreement of 28 June 2018, requesting the purchase of 3% of the capital of Toscana Energia at the price of euro 70,000,000.00, or the execution of the agreement or, alternatively, compensation for damages of euro 59,800,000.00. By judgment of 11 June 2024, the Court of Florence dismissed Publiservizi’s claims in full. On 13 January 2025, Publiservizi (now Plures S.p.A. (ex Alia Servizi Ambientali S.p.A.)) lodged an appeal before the Court of Appeal of Florence. The next hearing is scheduled for 12 February 2027. Criminal disputes The main criminal disputes in which the Group is involved are indicated below. Italgas Reti S.p.A. – Ravanusa incident The Public Prosecutor's Office of Agrigento has launched an investigation in relation to the explosion that occurred in Ravanusa on 11 December 2021, which caused 9 casualties and serious damage to buildings. In December 2021, ten employees of Italgas Reti were notified of the investigation to allow for non-repeatable technical assessments. The investigations revealed the rupture of a steel pipe laid in 1988 by Siciliana Gas and confirmed the presence of the odourant in the gas. In May 2023, the Public Prosecutor's Office requested the dismissal of the case against all the suspects from Italgas Reti, while proceeding against individuals from Siciliana Gas and the company carrying out the works. Two criminal proceedings were initiated: the first, against the employees of Italgas Reti, ended with a dismissal order on 16 December 2025; the second is still pending and concerns Italgas Reti S.p.A. as the party bearing civil liability, with a hearing for the examination of witnesses scheduled for 15 September 2026. Following the event, Italgas Reti also carried out, at the request of the Municipality of Ravanusa, a project to remove the rubble, which was completed in 2023.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 82 ESMA PRIORITIES IN THE PREPARATION OF THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 In preparing the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements as at 30 June 2026, the Group took into account the recommendations made by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) in the Public Statement "European Common Enforcement Priorities for 2025 Corporate Reporting", aimed at promoting high levels of transparency and comparability of financial reporting. In particular, in order to identify potential areas or areas of impact to be disclosed, ESMA requires a particular focus (and adequate disclosure) on: - the risks and uncertainties arising from the geopolitical context; - the information relating to segment reporting (operational segments). In continuity with what was presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2025, the Group carried out specific analyses aimed at assessing the effects of the current geopolitical, macroeconomic and financial context on the main financial statement items, on the valuation processes and on the assumptions used in the preparation of the half-yearly financial report. The analyses carried out concerned, in particular, the impacts of international geopolitical tensions, the evolution of energy markets, inflationary dynamics, the trend in interest rates and the possible repercussions deriving from the introduction of metering and trade measures in the main reference economic contexts. Risks and uncertainties arising from the geopolitical context The risks and uncertainties related to the geopolitical context (the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, tensions in the Middle East, trade tensions and tariffs) have led to persistent volatility in energy and commodity prices, supply chain disruptions and changes in the balance of global trade. the Group has not needed to implement extraordinary measures to mitigate the current geopolitical risks in view of its current geographical presence (limited to two EU countries) and the regulated nature of its core business, which therefore already provide an effective shield against exogenous volatility. Nevertheless, the Group remains vigilant: - in the area of procurement, in addition to the ordinary actions to make the supply chain more resilient (e.g. diversification of suppliers), it intensifies checks and monitoring of first- and second-level suppliers in areas subject to current or potential conflict, as well as carrying out advance planning with suppliers and conducting specific negotiations to mitigate requests for price increases or indexation and periodic renegotiations based on market trends; - in the area of security, it has equipped itself with a Group Security Operation Centre, a travel security and operational intelligence platform, an Integrated Security Cloud Command Centre, and a proprietary software platform for managing the field activities of employees nationally and internationally. In addition, it conducts regular training and awareness programmes for staff on security, business continuity and cyber risk issues; - in the financial area, it maintains liquidity reserves and credit lines appropriate to the Group's needs, as better described in the section "Liquidity risk". With regard to duties or trade restrictions, to date there have been no effects on the Group, both due to the regulated nature of the core gas business (which, through tariff mechanisms, allows the recognition and compensation of any external procurement costs), and because it does not import strategic goods from countries subject to sanctions. The Italgas Group has also assessed the direct and indirect implications for financial reporting, with particular attention to potential impairment of assets, changes in revenue recognition criteria and considerations regarding the recoverability of deferred tax assets. In summary, as at the date of this report, there are no significant direct impacts on the Group's activities; however, the evolution of the global geopolitical context remains a source of uncertainty and is constantly monitored by management. Impairment test and recoverability of non-financial assets As at 30 June 2026, no events or circumstances had emerged that would change the reference framework used in the valuations of non-financial assets, nor were there any indicators of impairment. The analyses carried out with reference to the evolution of the macroeconomic, financial and geopolitical context did not reveal any elements likely to affect the recoverability of assets or to cause significant changes in the main assumptions used by management. For the CGU "Distribution and metering of natural gas and other gases", the impairment test was carried out as at 31 December 2025 using the RAB method (recoverable amount estimated as the value of the Net Invested Capital recognised for tariff purposes – RAB by the Authority), which is not affected by the effects deriving from the macroeconomic context. For the other CGUs where the Discounted Cash Flow method is used, the main variables considered, including interest rates, inflationary dynamics, the prospects of the
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 83 reference markets and the evolution of regulated investments, are substantially consistent with those incorporated in the Group's Strategic Plan 2026-2032. In this context, the assessments made continue to be supported by substantially unchanged operational, regulatory and financial conditions. With reference to the regulated activities in Italy and Greece, recoverability continues to be supported by the presence of a stable regulatory framework that guarantees stable revenues that do not depend on the actual consumption of end users. The sensitivity analyses and scenario simulations carried out periodically confirm the robustness of the valuations and the ability to absorb any unfavourable developments in the reference context. Revenues and variable fees As at 30 June 2026, no events or changes in the economic and regulatory environment have emerged that would have a significant impact on the revenue recognition criteria adopted by the Group. The Group recognises revenue in accordance with IFRS 15. Almost all of the revenues derive from regulated activities characterised by high predictability and from tariff mechanisms that guarantee the recovery of the costs recognised by the Authority. Geopolitical tensions have not had a significant effect on the criteria for recognising revenues or on the determination of the main tariff components. The limited cases attributable to variable fees continue to be measured by applying the constraint provided for by IFRS 15, including in revenue only the amounts for which it is highly probable that there will be no subsequent significant reversal. The Group also continues to monitor the evolution of economic and regulatory conditions that could influence the determination of prospective revenues or lead to changes in the estimates used. Deferred tax assets As at 30 June 2026, there were no significant changes in the economic and income prospects of the Group companies such as to affect the assessments relating to the recoverability of deferred tax assets. The main assumptions underlying the tax estimates and the determination of the Effective Annual Tax Rate are substantially confirmed and consistent with the expectations formulated by management. The assessments made continue to reflect the ability of the Group companies to generate future taxable income sufficient to allow the recovery of the deferred tax receivables recognised in the financial statements, taking into account the predominantly regulated nature of the activities carried out and the predictability of future results. Financial instruments, credit risk and liquidity The evolution of the macroeconomic environment during the half-year did not lead to significant changes in the risk profile of the Group's main counterparties or to substantial changes in the elements used to determine expected losses in accordance with IFRS 9. The evidence available as at 30 June 2026 is consistent with the risk framework considered as part of the ordinary processes for monitoring and managing financial risks. The receivables portfolio continues to have a high level of credit quality, being composed mainly of regulated counterparties, leading energy operators, public bodies and institutional organisations. Similarly, no elements emerged that would significantly change the assessments relating to liquidity risk, interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. The Group's financial structure continues to be supported by adequate levels of liquidity and a balanced profile of financing sources, while the predominant exposure to fixed-rate debt helps to limit the effects of any further increases in market rates. The sensitivity analyses carried out by the Group continue to confirm its ability to meet its financial commitments even in scenarios characterised by greater market volatility. Disclosure by Operational Segments The Group prepares the disclosures by operational segments in accordance with IFRS 8 on the basis of the management reporting used by management for the purposes of monitoring performance and allocating resources. In the half-year, following the significant expansion of the gas distribution business (also due to the consolidation of 2i Rete Gas and the ATEM tenders), energy efficiency activities are no longer represented as an independent Operational segment, as they are no longer subject to separate analysis by management. There were no further changes in the reporting structure or in the aggregation criteria; the disclosure on segment revenues and costs remains consistent with the information reviewed by management. The configuration of the Operational segments is also consistent with the structure of the CGUs for the purposes of the impairment test (unchanged compared to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2025), with no impact on the recoverability assessments as at 30 June 2026. The Group also continues to provide adequate information regarding the geographical distribution of assets and revenues, highlighting the significant concentration of assets in the Italian and Greek markets.
ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 84 Further considerations Main judgements and estimates The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements requires the use of valuations and estimates by management in relation to the main items characterised by uncertainty. As at 30 June 2026, no new events, circumstances or information had emerged that would lead to significant changes in the valuations, estimates or assumptions used by management. The analyses carried out confirm the substantial continuity of the reference framework considered for the purposes of preparing the Group's financial information. The assumptions adopted are therefore reasonable and consistent with the information available at the end of the half-year, and no elements have emerged that would require significant updates to the valuation methodologies applied by the Group. Climate Risks As at 30 June 2026, no impacts had emerged that would lead to significant changes in the estimates compared to what was already presented in the annual financial statements. The update of the 2026-2032 Strategic Plan confirmed the integration of climate objectives into the Transition Plan consistent with the 1.5°C scenario. In this context, the 2030 targets for gas distribution were revised upwards, envisaging a 41% reduction in energy consumption and a 68% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions (market-based), as well as a 24% reduction in Scope 3 emissions (supply chain), with confirmation of the Net Zero target for 2050. The Plan provides for significant investments in the development, digitalisation and repurposing of infrastructure (“H2-ready” networks and enabling renewable gases such as biomethane and hydrogen), elements already reflected in the main assumptions used in the financial statement valuations. INTERNATIONAL TAX REFORM – PILLAR TWO MODEL RULES Legislative Decree No. 209 of 27 December 2023, which transposes Directive No. 2022/EU/2523 on the "Global Minimum Tax" (also known as "Pillar Two"), introduced reference legislation in Italy to ensure a minimum level of taxation for multinational and national groups of companies, applicable from 1 January 2024. Directive 2022/EU/2523 has also been transposed in Greece by Law 5100/2024. The provisions apply to companies operating in Italy and Greece belonging to multinational or national groups with consolidated annual revenues of 750 million euro or more, calculated as an average in at least two of the four financial years immediately preceding the reference year. The aim of the legislation is to ensure that these companies are subject to a minimum effective tax rate of 15%, with any tax supplements required in jurisdictions that do not reach this level. The legislation in question applies to Italgas S.p.A. and its subsidiaries as they are part of the CDP Group. Cassa Depositi e Prestiti S.p.A., as the ultimate parent entity ("UPE"), is responsible for carrying out the calculations relating to the minimum tax, based on the data provided by the subsidiaries. The calculations for Italgas and its subsidiaries were completed with respect to the 2025 tax year and no liabilities for supplementary taxation emerged to be recognised in the half-yearly Financial Report as at 30 June 2026. 26) Revenues and other operational income The breakdown of revenues and other operational income is shown in the following table. (thousands of €) First half of the year 2025 2026 Revenues 1,581,342 1,897,005 Other income 53,425 56,584 1,634,767 1,953,589 The Group's revenues are generated in Italy and Greece.

Gas distribution revenues recorded an increase of 146,175 thousand euro compared to 30 June 2025, mainly due to the benefits of the new scope resulting from the acquisition of the 2i Rete Gas companies. These revenues refer to the transmission of natural gas on behalf of all commercial operators requesting access to the networks of the distribution companies and include the effects deriving (i) from the implementation of Resolution No. 737/2022/R/gas in terms of recognition of the residual value of smart meters of a calibre not exceeding G6 produced up to the year 2016 and revenues deriving from energy efficiency interventions amounting to 11,019 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 (34,449 thousand euro as at 30 June 2025) are reduced mainly due to the progressive completion of the worksites linked to the superbonus and ecobonus incentive measures, largely concluded by the end of the 2025 financial year. Revenues from integrated water service, amounting to 36,136 thousand euro as at 30 June 2026 (38,099 thousand euro as at 30 June 2025), refer to the collection, purification, supply, transport, distribution and sale of water in Campania.

The increase is attributable to the new scope resulting from the acquisition of 2i Rete Gas. Capital gains from sale of assets, amounting to 19,825 thousand euro, mainly refer (19,779 thousand euro) to the sale of the ATEMs subject to the Antitrust measure following the acquisition of 2i Rete Gas. Other income from regulated activities, amounting to 5,780 thousand euro, relates to repayments for arrears.

The rates applied and provided for by Italian tax legislation for current taxes are 24% for IRES and 6.2% for IRAP, respectively. The rate applied and provided for by Greek tax legislation for current taxes is 22%. 32) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share, as defined by IAS 33, amounting to 0.38 euro per share (0.41 euro per share as at 30 June 2025), are determined by dividing the net profit attributable to Italgas of 386,256 thousand euro (338,078 thousand euro as at 30 June 2025) by the weighted average number of Italgas shares outstanding during the period of 1,016,116,471 shares (942,746,244 shares as at 31 December 2025 and 818,481,155 shares as at 30 June 2025). The adjusted earnings per share, calculated as the ratio between the adjusted net profit attributable to Italgas and the total number of shares outstanding as at 30 June 2026, equal to 1,016,523,089, is 0.392 euro per share (0.309 as at 30 June 2025). Diluted earnings per share are determined by dividing the net profit attributable to Italgas, amounting to 386,256 thousand euro, by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, including the shares that could be added as a result of the allocation of shares under the stock grant plans and the employee share ownership plan. Diluted earnings per share, calculated also taking into account the co-investment plan, amount to 0.38 euro per share (0.41 euro per share as at 30 June 2025). 33) Information by operating segment In accordance with international accounting standard IFRS 8 "Operating Segments", the Group's identified segments as at 30 June 2026 are as follows: - Gas distribution; - Water service; - Other segments. The significant expansion of the Gas Distribution Segment, following the consolidation of 2i Rete Gas and the award of the ATEM tenders, has led to a reduction in the relative impact of energy efficiency activities on the Group's overall business. In line with the evolution of the methods of performance monitoring and resource allocation by management, these activities are no longer represented as an independent Operational segment pursuant to IFRS 8. The related income statement, balance sheet and financial items have consequently been reclassified to the "Other segments" segment. The operating result (EBIT) is the key profit measure used by the Company Management to assess performance and allocate resources to the Group's operating segments, as well as to analyse operating trends, make analytical comparisons and benchmarks between periods and between segments. The operating result (EBIT) is defined as the net profit (or loss) for the year excluding income taxes, total financial expense and net income from equity investments. Investments in property, plant and equipment and Investments in intangible assets are the key measure used by Company Management to allocate resources to the Group's Operational segments. The following tables summarise selected financial information by segment for the years ended 30 June 2025 and 2026.

The following disclosure is instead made pursuant to IAS 24. The related-party transactions undertaken by the Italgas Group concern the exchange of goods, the provision of Services and, with regard to CDP, the provision of financial resources. These relationships are part of the ordinary management of the company and are generally regulated on the basis of market conditions, i.e. the conditions that would have applied between two independent parties. All the transactions implemented were carried out in the interest of the companies of the Italgas Group. CDP and CDP Reti consolidate Italgas in accordance with international accounting standard IFRS 10; furthermore, with the Board of Directors meeting of 1 August 2019, CDP reclassified the shareholding

Funding operations and ratings On 7 July 2026, Italgas obtained a loan of 250 million euro from the European Investment Bank (EIB), with a first tranche of 150 million euro already signed, intended to support energy efficiency interventions carried out by the subsidiaries Geoside and Italgas Properties in the period 2026-2029. The programme includes the energy redevelopment of public and private buildings, industrial efficiency measures, the installation of photovoltaic systems for self-consumption and the modernisation of public lighting. On 9 July 2026, CONSOB approved the renewal of the EMTN Programme (Euro Medium Term Notes) approved by the Board of Directors of Italgas S.p.A. on 5 May 2026. The programme's maximum ceiling was increased from 5 billion to 7 billion euro.

ITALGAS CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT AS AT 30 JUNE 2026 – NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 96 Italgas's strategic objectives. The high level of participation confirms people's confidence in the Group's growth path. Legal and regulatory framework With Resolution No. 245/2026/R/efr, the Authority determined the tariff contribution to be paid to distributors that meet their energy saving targets under the EEC mechanism for the obligation year 2025, i.e. for the period between 1 June 2025 and 31 May 2026. The Consultation Document (DCO) 267/2026/R/gas, published on 25 July 2026, sets out ARERA’s initial orientations for the introduction of ROSS criteria in gas distribution and metering services during the sixth regulatory period, effective from 1 January 2028. ARERA's proposal envisages the application of the ROSS framework to operators serving more than 300,000 delivery points and covers both distribution and metering activities. The consultation document presents three regulatory options and indicates a preference for a “simplified ROSS-base" model, under which efficiency targets apply only to operating costs, while capital expenditures would be subject to monitoring. The new model, according to the proposal, does not apply to ATEMs where tender procedures have already been launched or are ongoing by 31 December 2027. According to the proposal, the new regulatory period would cover the four-year period 2028-2031, with the final regulatory decision expected by the third quarter of 2027. Other events On 14 July, Italgas was confirmed for the ninth consecutive year as a member of the FTSE4Good Index Series, which includes companies that demonstrate strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices. On 9 July 2026, the Memorandum of Understanding was signed with Nedgia (Naturgy Group), the main natural gas distribution company in Spain, to strengthen collaboration in the development of energy infrastructure, with a focus on renewable gases, technological and digital innovation, artificial intelligence, sustainability and procurement. The agreement aims to foster the sharing of expertise and best practices to accelerate the energy transition, promote the integration of renewable gases into existing networks, and develop innovative solutions for increasingly digital, efficient and sustainable infrastructure. On 15 July 2026, a new biomethane connection to the gas distribution network came into operation in Saluzzo (CN). 39) Publication of the financial statements The Interim Financial Statements as at 30 June 2026 was authorised for publication, to be carried out within the terms of the law, by the Board of Directors of Italgas at its meeting on 27 July 2026.
