Results for the first quarter of 2006

Aare-Tessin Ltd. for Electricity (Atel) completed the first three months of 2006 with an increase in turnover and encouraging earnings. The significant rise in turnover was due to higher market prices and vigorous growth in trading and distribution in all market regions.

Energy-services provider Atel generated turnover of CHF 2.982 billion in the first three months of 2006 – 53 percent more than in the first quarter of 2005. This growth was facilitated by higher prices in the electricity market, higher delivery volumes in all sales and distribution regions and robust growth in trading. Energy sales rose by 29 percent to 31.3 TWh. Operating profit (EBIT) was CHF 140 million, the same as the previous year (2005: CHF 140 million). Between January and March 2006 the Atel Group generated consolidated profits of CHF 101 million (2005: CHF 103 million). The previous year’s earnings were boosted by extraordinary revenue totalling some CHF 15 million, while this year’s first-quarter earnings were depressed by regulatory restrictions and dry weather in Switzerland. 

The outlook for 2006: based on its encouraging operating performance in the first quarter and its expectations for the rest of the year, and subject to extraordinary events, the Atel Group believes its turnover this year will be higher than in 2005, and earnings comparable.
