182,500,000 Class B Shares

(either in the form of shares or American Depositary Shares)
€           per Class B share and $             per ADS



        Abengoa, S.A. (the "Issuer", "we", "Abengoa" or the "Company") is offering 182,500,000 Class B shares, including in the form of shares or American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, in the offering. The ADSs may be evidenced by American Depositary Receipts, or ADRs, and each ADS represents the right to receive five Class B shares. We refer to this offering of Class B shares as the "offering".

        We have been approved to list our ADSs on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "ABGB," subject to official notice of issuance. The Class B shares are listed on the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchanges and traded through the Automated Quotation System of such stock exchanges under the symbol "ABG.P." The closing price of our Class B shares on October 3, 2013 was €2.19 per Class B share (or $2.96 per Class B share and $14.82 per ADS based on the U.S. dollar: euro exchange rate on September 27, 2013). It is anticipated that the initial public offering price per Class B share will be based on the closing price of the Class B shares on the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchanges on the date of pricing. The price per ADS will be the approximate U.S. dollar equivalent based on the prevailing exchange rate on such date. We have two classes of shares outstanding, Class A shares and Class B shares. The Class B shares are entitled to the same per share dividend as the Class A shares. Each Class B share carries one vote per share. By comparison, each Class A share carries 100 votes per share.



        Investing in the Class B shares and/or the ADSs involves risks. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 26.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

        We are a corporation (sociedad anónima) organized under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain ("Spain"). Substantially all of our directors and officers and certain other persons named in this prospectus reside in Spain and all or a significant portion of the assets of the directors and officers and certain other persons named in this prospectus and a significant portion of our assets is located in Spain. As a result, it may not be possible for you to effect service of process within the United States upon such persons or to enforce against them or against us in U.S. courts judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States. There is doubt as to the enforceability in Spain, either in original actions or in actions for enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, of civil liabilities predicated on the U.S. federal securities laws.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        The selected financial information as of and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is derived from, and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and our annual consolidated financial statements and related notes, which are included elsewhere in this prospectus, which are prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The selected financial information as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, using as a basis our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union for those years, which are not included herein. There are no differences applicable to the Company, between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as adopted by the EU for any of the periods presented. The financial information as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 included in this prospectus has been recasted in order to enhance the comparability of our financial disclosures for those years with 2013 and subsequent periods, to give effect to the facts described below. We have also recasted our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 included elsewhere in this prospectus. In addition, we have recasted the consolidated financial information for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 included in our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, which are also included elsewhere in this prospectus.

        In 2012, the segment Technology and Other has been reclassified from the Industrial Production activity to the Engineering and Construction activity. For comparability purposes, we have also reclassified information for 2011 and 2010 accordingly.

        Certain numerical figures set out in this prospectus, including financial data presented in millions or thousands and percentages describing market shares, have been subject to rounding adjustments, and, as a result, the totals of the data in this prospectus may vary slightly from the actual arithmetic totals of such information. Percentages and amounts reflecting changes over time periods relating to financial and other data set forth in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" are calculated using the numerical data in our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements or the tabular presentation of other data (subject to rounding) contained in this prospectus, as applicable, and not using the numerical data in the narrative description thereof.

Application of IFRS 10 and 11

        IFRS 10 and 11 came into effect on January 1, 2013 under IFRS as issued by the IASB and have been initially applied in our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2013. According to IAS 8 Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors, IFRS 10 and 11 are required to be retrospectively applied, recasting the comparison information presented for the year 2012 in order to make it comparable with the information as of June 30, 2013. Consequently, the Company has recasted the information presented in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2012, to make it comparable with the information as of June 30, 2013. Financial information as of and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 has not been recasted according to the transition guidance of IFRS 10 and 11. Consequently, the comparative information presented for the years 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 is not comparable with the more recent periods presented.

Application of IFRIC 12

        Service concession agreements are recorded in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 12. IFRIC 12 is applicable to public-to-private service concession arrangements where the grantor of the concession governs what services the operator must provide using the infrastructure, to whom and at what price and also controls any significant residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the term of the arrangement. When the operator of the infrastructure is also responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction of such asset, IFRIC 12 requires the separate accounting for the revenue and margins associated with the construction activities, which is not eliminated in consolidation even between companies within the same consolidated group, and for the subsequent operation and maintenance of the infrastructure. In such cases, the investment in the infrastructure used in the concession arrangement cannot be classified as property, plant and equipment of the operator, but rather must be classified as a financial asset or an intangible asset, depending on the nature of the payment rights established under the contract. The infrastructures accounted for by us as service concessions under IFRIC 12 are mainly related to the activities concerning power transmission lines, desalination plants and thermo-solar electricity generation plants outside of Spain and, with effect from January 1, 2011 (as explained below), in Spain.

        The analysis on whether IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities involves various complex factors and it is significantly affected by legal interpretation of certain contractual agreements or other terms and conditions with public sector entities. The application of IFRIC 12 requires extensive judgment in relation with, among other factors, (i) the identification of certain infrastructures and contractual agreements in the scope of IFRIC 12, (ii) the understanding of the nature of the payments in order to determine the classification of the infrastructure as a financial asset or as an intangible asset and (iii) the timing and recognition of the revenue from construction and concessionary activity.

        Thermo-solar electricity generation plants have been affected by numerous laws and regulation which have made difficult and very judgmental their consideration as concessionary assets. The following are the main laws, regulations or agreements with the government which have been considered as the most relevant to our analysis of the application of IFRIC 12 to its thermo-solar assets in Spain:

    the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007; which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers;

    Royal Decree-Law 6/2009 of April 30 ("RDL 6/2009"); which adopts certain measures in the energy sector, approves a subsidized rate, and creates a "Pre-Allocation Registry";

    Individual rulings issued to us in January and March 2011, from the Spanish Ministry of Industry for each of our thermo-solar installations, confirming earliest commissioning dates, economic terms of the feed-in tariff/premium economic schemes and other issues related to the legal and economic regime of the plants; and

v


Table of Contents

    Royal Decree 9-2013 of July 12, whereby the Government adopted urgent measures to ensure financial stability in the electrical system (see Note 33.9 "Subsequent events" to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus).

        As a result of IFRIC 12 on Service Concession Arrangements coming into effect on January 1, 2008 and in accordance with IAS 8 as established in paragraph 29 of the aforementioned IFRIC 12, we began to apply this interpretation retrospectively with no significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements as of that date, since it had already been applying a similar accounting policy to the interpretation concurrently and in anticipation of the changes for its concession-type assets, mainly related to the international concession business for electricity transmission and desalination, with the exception of its thermo-solar assets in Spain. The Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007, which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers in Spain, is a statutory legal regime that created a legal relationship between the Spanish government and the developers of the plants. This legal relationship is of a public/administrative law nature, meaning that it is a legal relationship that is not governed by the Spanish Civil Code or Spanish Commercial Code in any respect (which governs relationships among private parties). This legal relationship is not a bilateral relationship, meaning that it could be changed unilaterally by the Spanish government by way of introducing changes in the laws and regulations governing the statutory legal regime. For that reason, we concluded that these assets did not meet the characteristics of concessionary assets as defined under the Interpretation at the transition date.

        The introduction of RDL 6/2009, created a very high level of uncertainty as to whether our thermo-solar plants in Spain would be entitled to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system, as well as to the continued availability of benefits under the Special Regime remuneration system for the duration of the useful life of our Spanish thermo-solar plants. Registration in the new system of the Pre-Allocation Registry under RDL 6/2009 did not guarantee that all of the thermo-solar plants accepted into the Pre-Allocation Registry would be immediately granted the right to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system. Due to the legal uncertainty created during this period, in the second half of 2010 we determined to pursue a strategy to maximize legal certainty for purposes of finally and definitively establishing a legal and binding arrangement for the generation and sale of electricity on terms designed to ensure a reasonable level of return on its investment in Spanish thermo-solar plants and reducing the uncertainty introduced by the economic and political circumstances and the various regulatory changes that were being discussed. We implemented this strategy by applying for administrative rulings from the Ministry of Industry's General Directorate for Energy Policy and Mining. Our aim was to ensure that it had entered into a bilateral contractual relationship with the Spanish government on mutually binding terms and conditions that could not be amended unilaterally and that, in the case of default or breach by the Spanish government, would give us the recourse to bring claims based on the damages caused by such default or breach. The rulings do not guarantee that we will be successful in any claim brought by it against the Spanish government. However, if we had not obtained the rulings and only relied on the regulatory framework established by the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007 to participate in the Special Regime, a unilateral change by the Spanish government to that framework affecting all producers equally would have left the Company without legal recourse. These rulings therefore substantially reduced the uncertainty that contributed to our original conclusion that its Spanish thermo-solar plants were not within the scope of IFRIC 12.

        For the foregoing reasons, we did not consider the entry into the Pre-Allocation Registry to constitute the beginning of a service concession arrangement in accordance with the guidance in IFRIC 12 and only considered a service concession arrangement with the Spanish government within the scope of IFRIC 12 to come into existence upon the receipt of the administrative rulings in 2011, as it was through those rulings that the Spanish government confirmed, on an individual basis for each thermo-solar plant, the economic terms of the feed-in tariff and the commissioning dates for each asset, creating a bilateral contractual relationship and an obligation on our part to supply the services at the established terms. In this regard, in June 2013 we commenced a private-law action against the Spanish government for breach of contract based on the administrative ruling issued in respect of one of its thermo-solar plants. In that action we are seeking

vi

performance by the Spanish government in accordance with the terms of that administrative ruling or, in the alternative, money damages in an amount equivalent to the difference between the profit it would have obtained under the administrating ruling and the profit that we will obtain under the Spanish government's special-regime tariff. In addition, in June 2013 we also submitted a demand for arbitration against the Spanish government alleging that the Spanish government's regulatory reforms of the electricity sector have breached our legitimate expectations under the administrative rulings issued in respect of its thermo-solar facilities and constitute expropriation. Further, we are seeking compensation through money damages, in an amount yet to be determined. (see Note 33.9 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus).

        Furthermore, during the first eight months of 2011, in view of the complex regulatory and accounting issues raised by the application of IFRIC 12 to those assets, and as a result of a review conducted by our home country regulator, the CNMV, we decided to gather the opinions of legal and accounting experts on this topic to support its analysis and conclusions. After completing that analysis with the CNMV in August 2011, we concluded that its Spanish thermo-solar assets were required to be included in the scope of IFRIC 12. As such, and because the change was driven by a change in facts and circumstances, we originally began to apply IFRIC 12 to such assets prospectively from that date (September 1, 2011). As a result, from January 1, 2008 through September 1, 2011, we originally determined that these assets were not under the scope of IFRIC 12, and therefore such plants were accounted for in accordance with IAS 16 as "Property, Plant & Equipment in Projects" and classified under the "Fixed Assets in Projects" line item. Capitalized costs derived from the construction of the plants were recorded in "Other Operating Income—Work performed by the entity and capitalized and other". Once IFRIC 12 began to be applied to these assets on September 1, 2011, we reclassified its solar-thermal plant assets from "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" to "Intangible Assets in Projects" and, in accordance with IAS 11, the total contract revenue for the construction of the plants (including amounts previously eliminated in consolidation) began to be recognized from September 1, 2011 based on the "percentage of completion" method, up to the finalization of construction of the plants.

        During the year 2013, in connection with the SEC Staff's review of this Registration Statement, we have reconsidered the assumptions and conclusions made in 2011, which led to the application of the accounting policy for thermo-solar plants in Spain described above. As a result, on June 30, 2013, we decided, based on the provisions of IAS 8.14, to apply an alternative acceptable accounting treatment which would better reflect the reliability and comparability of financial information, consisting of the revision of the method in which it applied IFRIC 12 to its thermo-solar assets in Spain already constructed or under construction upon application of IFRIC 12 and of the revision of the date on which IFRIC 12 was applied to these assets (January 1, 2011 instead of September 1, 2011). The revised accounting treatment has consisted in applying IFRIC 12 prospectively from January 1, 2011 (as this was the date the administrative rulings were received) by derecognizing, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, our thermo-solar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognizing those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects". The difference of €165 million has been recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment on January 1, 2011 within "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. From January 1, 2011, only the remaining contract revenue, costs and margins generated after such date for the ongoing construction of the plants began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11. In addition, the revenue and operating profit that was previously deferred upon original adoption of IFRIC 12 and that was being recognized prospectively during fiscal years 2011 (from September 1, 2011) and 2012 have been eliminated. The change in application date also resulted in the recognition of revenues and costs associated with the construction activities that occurred between January 1, 2011 and September 1, 2011 that had been previously eliminated in consolidation. In accordance with the terms and requirements of IAS 8 for Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, we applied this change in accounting policy by recasting its 2012 and 2011 consolidated financial statements. Total recasted revenues and operating profits related to our thermo-solar activity in Spain amounted to €843 million and €234 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2011 (including

the one-time gain of €165million recorded within "other operating income"), versus €649 million and €60 million, respectively, which had been recognized during this same period prior to the voluntary accounting change described above. The application of IFRIC 12 also resulted in an increase in intangible assets in projects of €1,808 million as of December 31, 2011.

        The consolidated income statement and statement of financial position within our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as well as the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information as presented elsewhere herein, have not been recasted to retrospectively apply IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar electricity generation plants in Spain for any period prior to January 1, 2011.

Befesa Sale

        On June 13, 2013, we entered into a share purchase agreement for the sale of 100% of our shares in our subsidiary Befesa (the "Befesa Sale") to funds advised by Triton Partners (the "Triton Funds"). After customary net debt adjustments and subject to certain adjustments, total consideration to us amounts to €620 million which is comprised of €348 million total cash, of which a payment of €331 million was received at closing and deferred compensation of €17 million (including €15 million in escrow pending resolution of ongoing litigation and a €2 million long-term receivable from a Befesa customer), a €48 million subordinated vendor note with a five-year maturity and a €225 million (par value) subordinated convertible instrument with a 15-year maturity (subject to two five-year extensions) accruing interest of 6 month Euribor in effect at closing date plus a 6% spread and which, upon the occurrence of certain triggering events including, but not limited to, Befesa's failure to meet certain financial targets or the exit of the Triton Funds from Befesa, may be converted into approximately 14% of the shares of Befesa (subject to certain adjustments). In addition, we undertook to ensure that either existing financing or new alternative financing up to the amount drawn down as of December 31, 2012, would be available with substantially the same terms and conditions to Befesa until September 30, 2013. We also had a commitment to provide limited financial guarantees for Befesa until September 30, 2013, after which date the guarantees are being gradually cancelled. Finally, we will provide interim bridge financing to Befesa in connection with the construction of a new plant in Germany in an amount of €15 million. The share purchase agreement contains a two-year non-compete provision concerning Befesa's activities.

        At the end of the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 all the conditions necessary to close the transaction were fulfilled (including the required approvals from the competition authorities). Accordingly, we have recorded the sale as of June 30, 2013, derecognizing the assets and liabilities of this shareholding and recognizing a gain of €0.4 million, included in "Results for the year from discontinued operations, net of taxes" in the Consolidated Income Statement for the six month period ended on June 30, 2013. On July 15, 2013, we received €331 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the price agreed for the shares and the sale of the transaction was definitely closed. We have used the proceeds from the Befesa Sale to replace expiring working capital facilities and to increase our flexibility to manage seasonal fluctuations in our working capital.

        Taking into account the significance of the activities carried out by Befesa to Abengoa, the sale of this shareholding is considered as a discontinued operation in accordance with IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.

        In accordance with this standard, the results of Befesa until the closing of the sale and the result of this sale are included under a single heading (profit for the year from discontinued operations, net of tax) in our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Likewise, the consolidated income statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 also include the results of Befesa under a single heading. The Befesa Sale also resulted in the removal of the Industrial Recycling segment from our Industrial Production activity.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

        This prospectus contains non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, including Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Corporate EBITDA, Corporate Adjusted EBITDA, Gross Corporate Debt, Net Corporate Debt, Ratio of Net Corporate Debt to Corporate EBITDA and constant currency presentation that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, IFRS as issued by the IASB.

    Consolidated EBITDA is calculated as profit for the year from continuing operations, after adding back income tax expense/(benefit), share of (loss)/profit of associates, finance expense net and depreciation, amortization and impairment charges of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries.

    Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Consolidated EBITDA, after adding back research and development costs of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries.

    Corporate EBITDA is calculated as profit for the year from continuing operations, after adding back income tax expense/(benefit), share of (loss)/profit of associates, finance expenses net, depreciation, amortization and impairment charges, less EBITDA from non-recourse activities net of eliminations.

    Corporate Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Consolidated EBITDA after adding back research and development costs of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries less EBITDA from non-recourse activities net of eliminations.

    Gross Corporate Debt consists of our (i) long-term debt (debt with a maturity of greater than one year) incurred with credit institutions, plus (ii) short-term debt (debt with a maturity of one year or less) incurred with credit institutions, plus (iii) notes, obligations, promissory notes, financial leases and any other such obligations or liabilities, the purpose of which is to provide finance and generate a financial cost for us, plus (iv) obligations relating to guarantees of third-party obligations (other than intra-Group guarantees), but excluding any non-recourse debt.

    Net Corporate Debt consists of Gross Corporate Debt, excluding obligations relating to guarantees of third parties (other than intragroup guarantees), less total cash and cash equivalents (excluding non-recourse cash and cash equivalents), and short-term financial investments at the end of each period (excluding non-recourse short-term financial investments).

    Ratio of Net Corporate Debt to Corporate EBITDA is Net Corporate Debt over Corporate EBITDA.

        We present non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that they and other similar measures are widely used by certain investors, securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity. The non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under IFRS as issued by the IASB. Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios are not measurements of our performance or liquidity under IFRS as issued by the IASB and should not be considered as alternatives to operating profit or profit for the year or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB or any other generally accepted accounting principles or as alternatives to cash flow from operating, investing or financing activities.

        Some of the limitations of these non-GAAP measures and ratios are:

    they do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

    they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

    they do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary, to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;

ix


Table of Contents

    although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often need to be replaced in the future and Consolidated EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements that would be required for such replacements;

    some of the exceptional items that we eliminate in calculating Consolidated EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA reflect cash payments that were made, or will be made in the future; and

    the fact that other companies in our industry may calculate Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Corporate EBITDA, Corporate Adjusted EBITDA, Gross Corporate Debt and Net Corporate Debt differently than we do, which limits their usefulness as comparative measures.

        In our discussion of operating results, we have included foreign exchange impacts in our revenue by providing constant currency revenue growth. The constant currency presentation is a non-GAAP financial measure, which excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations. We calculate constant currency amounts by converting our current period local currency revenue using the prior period foreign currency average exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our prior period reported results. This calculation may differ from similarly titled measures used by others and, accordingly, the constant currency presentation is not meant to substitute for recorded amounts presented in conformity with IFRS nor should such amounts be considered in isolation.

Sale of Brazilian Transmission Line Assets

        We sold, in two portions pursuant to three share purchase agreements, 100% of certain Brazilian transmission line assets to TAESA, an affiliate of Cemig.

        On June 2, 2011, Abengoa Concessões Brasil Holding S.A. ("Abengoa Concessões") entered into an agreement with TAESA to sell 50% of its shareholding in a newly formed entity, named UNISA, to which Abengoa Concessões contributed 100% of its interests in four project companies that it controls and that hold power transmission line concessions in Brazil. These four project companies are STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III. In addition, on June 2, 2011, Abengoa Concessões and Abengoa Construção Brasil Ltda. entered into an agreement with TAESA to sell 100% of the share capital of NTE, another project company that holds a power transmission line concession in Brazil. The sales corresponding to the sale of 100% of the shareholding of NTE and 50% of the shareholding of UNISA are referred to herein as the "First Cemig Sale." The First Cemig Sale closed on November 30, 2011 and, accordingly, is fully reflected in our historical statement of financial position as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011.

        As consideration for the First Cemig Sale, upon closing we received the equivalent of approximately €479 million in net cash proceeds in Brazilian reais and reduced our net consolidated debt by approximately €642 million on our statement of financial position as of December 31, 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded a net gain from the sale of €45 million reflected in the "Other operating income" line item in our consolidated income statement (€43 million after taxes) resulting from the First Cemig Sale. The share purchase agreements for each of UNISA and NTE in respect of the First Cemig Sale provided for a post-closing price adjustment to be paid following the preparation of the audited financial statements of the relevant project companies taking into account, among other variables, changes in the share capital thereof and any dividends or distributions made between signing and closing. No such adjustments were required to be paid under the terms of the share purchase agreements with respect to the First Cemig Sale.

        In addition to the First Cemig Sale, we signed an agreement with TAESA on March 16, 2012 to sell our remaining 50% interest in UNISA, thereby completing the divestment of certain Brazilian transmission line concession assets (STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III) (the "Second Cemig Sale," and collectively with the First Cemig Sale, the "Cemig Sales"). On June 30, 2012, all the conditions necessary to close the transaction were fulfilled, and on July 2, we received €354 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the total price agreed for the shares. The gain from the Second Cemig Sale of €4.5 million is reflected in the "Other operating income" line item in our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Second Cemig Sale includes a post-closing adjustment mechanism similar to that described above relating to the First Cemig Sale, and we similarly do not expect any significant post-closing adjustment to be payable.

        In the consolidated income statement for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 included in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, the profits and losses of NTE and the four project companies we contributed to UNISA (STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III) are fully consolidated until November 30, 2011. Following such date through December 31, 2011, we included our 50% share in the profits and losses of UNISA following the proportional consolidation method. In our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012, the profits and losses of the four project companies are recorded under the equity method as a result of the retrospective application of IFRS 11 from January 1, 2012 until June 30, 2012, when the Second Cemig Sale closed. See "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information" for further discussion.

Divestment of Telvent GIT, S.A.

        As of December 31, 2010 and during part of the year 2011 we held a 40% shareholding in Telvent GIT, S.A. and its subsidiaries ("Telvent"). Despite partially reducing our share ownership in Telvent during 2009 through the sale of 7,768,844 ordinary shares for a total amount of €119 million, we remained the largest shareholder and our 40% shareholding, along with our control of certain treasury shares held by Telvent, permitted us to exercise de facto control over Telvent and therefore Telvent's financial information was fully consolidated with our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 and during the period of 2011 in which we had control over Telvent. On June 1, 2011, we announced the sale of our investment in Telvent (the "Telvent Disposal"), in which we sold our 40% shareholding in Telvent to Schneider Electric S.A. ("SE"). Following the agreement to sell, SE launched a tender offer to acquire all of the remaining Telvent shares. SE launched the tender offer to acquire all Telvent shares at a price of $40 per share in cash, which valued the business at €1,360 million, or a premium of 36%, to Telvent's average share price over the previous 90 days prior to the announcement of the offer. On September 5, 2011, following completion of the customary closing conditions and the receipt of regulatory approvals, the transaction was completed. Our cash proceeds from the Telvent Disposal were €391 million and consolidated net debt reduction was €725 million. In addition, we recorded a gain which is included in the €91 million profit from discontinued operations as reflected on our income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. As a result, taking into account the significance of Telvent to us, Telvent was treated as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, and the results obtained from this sale are included under a single heading, "Profit after tax from discontinued operations," in the consolidated income statement for the year 2011, together with the results generated by Telvent until the moment of its sale, and the consolidated income statement for 2010 has been recasted to present Telvent as discontinued operations. The Telvent Disposal also resulted in the removal of our Information Technologies segment. See Note 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Commencement of Operations of Projects

        The comparability of our results of operations is significantly influenced by the volume of projects that become operational during a particular year. The number of projects becoming operational and the length of projects under construction significantly impact our revenue and operating profit, as well as our consolidated profit after tax during a particular period, which makes the comparison of periods difficult.

Overview

        We are a leading engineering and clean technology company with operations in more than 70 countries worldwide that provides innovative solutions for a diverse range of customers in the energy and environmental sectors. Over the course of our 70-year history, we have developed a unique and integrated business model that applies our accumulated engineering expertise to promoting sustainable development solutions, including delivering new methods for generating power from the sun, developing biofuels, producing potable water from seawater and efficiently transporting electricity. A cornerstone of our business model has been investment in proprietary technologies, particularly in areas with relatively high barriers to entry. Our Engineering and Construction activity provides sophisticated turnkey engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") services from design to implementation for infrastructure projects within the energy and environmental sectors and engages in other related activities with a high technology component. Our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity operates, manages and maintains infrastructure assets, usually pursuant to long-term concession agreements under Build, Own, Operate and Transfer ("BOOT") schemes, within four operating segments (Transmission, Solar, Water and Co-generation). Finally, our Industrial Production activity produces a variety of biofuels (ethanol and biodiesel). For the first half of the year 2013, our average number of employees was 27,417 people worldwide across our three business activities and, according to industry publications, we are among the market leaders in the majority of our areas of operation.

        In order to focus our attention on our key markets, we organize our business into three activities: Engineering and Construction, Concession Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production. Each activity is further broken into the following operating segments: Engineering and Construction and Technology and Other within the Engineering and Construction segment; Transmission, Solar, Water and Co-generation within the Concession Type Infrastructures activity; and Biofuels within the Industrial Production activity. Our three activities are focused in the energy and environmental industries, and integrate operations throughout the value chain, including research and development and innovation ("R&D&i"), project development, engineering and construction, and the operation and maintenance of our own assets and those of third parties. Our activities are organized to capitalize on our global presence and scale, as well as to leverage our engineering and technological expertise in order to strengthen our leadership positions.

        We have successfully grown our business, with a compound annual growth rate of our Consolidated EBITDA of 25% during the last ten years ended December 31, 2012. We have also maintained double-digit growth in our consolidated revenue and Consolidated EBITDA on a compound annual growth basis since our 1996 initial public offering on the Spanish Stock Exchanges. As of October 3, 2013, we had a market capitalization of approximately €1.2 billion. As of June 30, 2013, our backlog was €7,133 million.

        Our revenue, Consolidated EBITDA and net fixed assets of the Group and by segment as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012 are set forth in the following table.

Table of Contents

        Our three activities are as follows:

    Engineering and Construction

      Our Engineering and Construction activity includes two operating segments: Engineering and Construction and Technology and Other.

          Engineering and Construction

      We have over 70 years of experience in the Engineering and Construction activity in the energy and environmental sectors. We are responsible for all phases of the engineering and construction cycle, including project identification and development, basic and detailed engineering, construction and operation and maintenance.

      In the energy sector, we are dedicated primarily to renewable energy (solar, biofuel and biomass), as well as conventional (co-generation and combined-cycle) power plants and power transmission lines. We were recognized by ENR Magazine as the leading international contractor in power transmission and distribution ("T&D") of electricity in terms of revenues, the leading international contractor in power in terms of revenues and the leading international contractor in co-generation and solar in terms of revenues (source: ENR).

      Within the environmental sector, we build water infrastructure, desalination and water treatment plants in Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia. We are among the market leaders in the construction of water desalination plants through our projects in Algeria, China, India, Ghana and Spain.

          Technology and Other

      The Technology and Other segment includes activities related to the sale of thermo-solar equipment and licensing of solar thermal related technology and water management technology, as well as innovative technology businesses such as hydrogen energy or the management of energy crops.

    Concession-Type Infrastructures

      By leveraging the expertise we have gained over the years in our Engineering and Construction activity and by selectively developing proprietary technologies, we have developed a portfolio of investments in concession-type infrastructures in the energy and environmental sectors where we seek to achieve attractive returns. Many such concessions are held pursuant to long-term agreements in which we operate and maintain assets that we initially constructed under BOOT or BOO schemes. There is limited or no demand risk as a result of arrangements such as feed-in and ad hoc tariff regimes, take-or-pay contracts and power or water purchase agreements, which are long-term contracts with utilities or other offtakers for the purchase and sale of the output of our concession assets. We believe our level of revenue visibility in this business to be very high given the nature of our assets, the long-term arrangements under which they are operated, and the number of projects under construction where off-take remuneration is already in place.

      Our Concession-Type Infrastructure activity includes four operating segments: Transmission, Solar, Water and Co-generation, which operate, respectively, our assets in power transmission, solar power generation (mostly in concentrated solar power technology ("CSP")), water desalination and co-generation. In each instance, we typically partner with leading international or local businesses or parastatals, such as E.ON AG ("E.ON"), Total S.A., Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company ("Masdar"), Centrais Eléctricas Brasileiras S.A. ("Eletrobrás"), General Electric Company ("General Electric"), Cemig, JGC Corporation, Itochu Corporation and Algérienne des Eaux (Algerian Water Authority). In a typical partnership, we make an equity contribution with our partners and then typically finance the infrastructure through non-recourse project financing.

      As of June 30, 2013, the average remaining duration of operation of our concession contract portfolio was 26 years. The capacity of our solar, co-generation and water desalination plants and the scale of

Table of Contents

      our power transmission line networks are each expected to approximately double as projects currently under construction are expected to be completed between 2013 and 2014.

      We manage concession assets on five continents as diverse as power transmission lines in Brazil, Chile and Peru, thermo-solar plants in the United States, Spain, South Africa, the United Arab Emirates and Israel, desalination plants in India, China, the Middle East and North Africa and co-generation plants in Spain and Mexico. We pursue a flexible asset rotation strategy through which we may divest certain assets from time to time on an opportunistic basis to maximize our overall investment returns.

    Industrial Production

      Our Industrial Production activity includes our Biofuels business in which we develop and produce biofuels. These operations are conducted using our own assets and are focused on high growth markets. According to industry publications and our own estimates, we enjoy leadership positions in many of the markets in which we operate.

          Biofuels

      In terms of capacity, according to Ethanol Producer Magazine and the European Renewable Ethanol Association, our Biofuels segment is currently the European market leader in ethanol production and is the seventh largest ethanol producer in North America. We are the only operator with a significant presence in all of the three key biofuel markets: the United States, Europe and Brazil. We are also diversified in terms of revenue sources and, historically, we have benefited from the positive impact of successful hedging policies.

      We believe we have identified a significant market opportunity in second-generation biofuels, which utilize biomass rather than cereal and other food crops as the primary raw material. We have invested continually in R&D&i over the past decade in this business and have developed our own proprietary processes and enzymes. Our pilot plant has been in operation in York (Nebraska, United States) since 2007 and a demonstration plant in Salamanca (Spain) since 2009. We commenced construction of our first second-generation commercial plant in Hugoton (Kansas, United States), for which we have been awarded a total of $132 million in loan guarantee financing and $97 million in grants from the U.S. Department of Energy since 2007. This plant is expected to start operations in the first quarter of 2014 and increase the number of opportunities for us to license our biomass technology to third parties. In addition, we believe that the plant will position our business for potential entry into the biomaterials and bioproducts industry. N-Butanol production on a commercial scale would allow us to diversify our bioenergy business product range, reducing market volatility. A pilot plan for development and implementation of a catalytic technology for N-Butanol production is expected to be running by the end of 2013.

Industry and Market Opportunity

        Over the last decade, global investment in the renewable energy and environmental sectors has witnessed significant growth. Moreover, energy scarcity, the focus on reduction of carbon emissions, and the potential increased costs of building and operating nuclear plants are expected to continue to drive renewable technology. We expect this to continue both in the short- and long-term and expect that this will support demand for our products and services. Overall energy demand is expected to increase by 1.2% per year from 2010 through 2035, while fossil-based energy sources are expected to become more scarce. As a result, biofuel usage is forecast to grow at 5.2% per year from 2010 until 2035 and solar power global installed capacity is expected to grow at 12% per year from 2010 to reach 674 GW by 2035 (source: World Energy Outlook). In addition, total investment of $1.8 trillion is expected in the electricity transmission sector worldwide between 2012 and 2035 (source: International Energy Association), approximately 61% of which is projected in regions where we focus our transmission activity.

        Other macroeconomic trends such as continuous global population growth and increasing water scarcity are expected to result in trends that favor the expertise and focus of our business. According to Global Water Intelligence estimates, the 2013 global water market is worth $556.8 billion and is expected to grow at a rate of around 3.9% per year through 2018. In particular, worldwide installed desalination capacity (industrial and municipal) in 2012 was 75 million m3/d, which corresponds to a water desalination market value of $3,938.3 million, and is expected to grow to $15,188.4 million by 2018. The growth rate for capital expenditure on seawater desalination is expected to be 19.2% during that time.

        In addition, increasing environmental consciousness, reducing carbon and greenhouse gas emissions, increasing focus on security of energy supply in many developed countries, and the related tightening of environmental regulation are important factors that we expect to bolster global demand and provide an impetus to our sustainable development focus.

Our Strengths

Integrated business model with high equity returns

        We operate an integrated business model in which we provide complete services from initial design, construction and engineering to operation and maintenance of infrastructure assets. The combination of our engineering and construction expertise with our track record of operating large and complex infrastructure facilities allows us to benefit from and leverage multiple operating efficiencies within our Group. We believe that our integrated business model allows us to prepare competitive bids for government concession tenders and complete and operate the project on a profitable and timely basis while achieving high equity returns.

        Furthermore, our business mix enables us to share knowledge gained from across our Group and implement best practices across our businesses and geographies, thereby increasing our competitiveness while allowing us to be less dependent on any single business or geography. Our Engineering and Construction activity provides a resilient earnings base and our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity provides long term recurrent cash flows. Together with our Industrial Production activity, our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity also operates in high-growth sectors that offer a wide range of business opportunities. In addition, our business mix allows us to apply our engineering capabilities to create new technologies that are integral to our asset-owned operations and concession projects. The growth of our technological development capabilities enhances our engineering capabilities and increases the development of our asset-based operations.

High revenue visibility driven by strong order backlog and contracted revenue stream

        We have a developed portfolio of businesses focused on EPC and concession project opportunities, many of which are based on customer contracts or long-term concession projects. As of June 30, 2013, our backlog of projects and other operations pending execution stood at €7,133 million, which equalled approximately 21 months of revenue that our Engineering and Construction activity achieved in the previous 12 months. As of June 30, 2013, our concessions had an average remaining life of 26 years. The volume and timing of executing the work in our backlog is important to us in anticipating our operational and financing needs, and we believe our backlog figures reflect our ability to generate revenue in the near term.

        We have an established portfolio of long-term concession projects undertaken in conjunction with partners or on an exclusive basis, which we operate in the power transmission, energy, generation and water infrastructure and energy sectors, typically with terms of 20 to 30 years. Our revenue from concession projects is typically obtained during the term through a period tariff or price per unit payable in exchange for the operation and maintenance of the project. This revenue, which is normally adjusted for inflation, represents a stable and contracted source of cash flow generation for us. In addition, partnerships and non-recourse project finance limits our credit exposure and increases our ability to commit to multiple projects simultaneously. For large projects, we often share the equity contribution by teaming up with various

international and local partners. Project finance borrowing allows us to finance the rest of the project through non-recourse debt and thereby insulate the rest of our Group from such credit exposure.

        We have a capital expenditure program focused on the construction of power transmission lines, solar power plants, cogeneration power plants and water infrastructure among other activities. As of June 30, 2013, our total estimated future capital expenditures were €2,325 million, with the significant majority of projects backed by off-take contracts and feed-in tariffs, for most of which long-term financing has been obtained. As a result, we believe that our capital expenditure program provides us with enhanced visibility on short and medium-term growth in revenue and cash flow.

Strong asset portfolio geographically diversified

        Our activities possess a combination of engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") as well as concession revenue streams originating from a variety of both renewable and conventional technologies and markets with their own demand and supply dynamics. As a result, we are not overly reliant on any particular technology, market or customer. Furthermore, as we have operations on five continents, with 82% and 85% of our consolidated revenue generated outside of Spain for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively, our geographic diversification reduces our exposure to economic conditions in any single country or region. Due to our business and geographic diversification, we have a broad customer base consisting of both private and public sector customers, including leading global utilities, blue chip industrial companies and national, regional and local governmental authorities. In 2012, no single customer accounted for over approximately 5% of our consolidated revenue, excluding work performed for our own assets.

        Our broad geographic diversification with significant activities in the United States, Latin America (including Brazil) and Europe, in particular, gives us deep regional insight and long-standing experience working with local governments, regulators, financial institutions and other partners that we believe assists us to obtain requisite equity and debt financing and conclude successful partnerships with leading international and local firms.

Market leader in high growth energy and environmental markets

        We have a developed portfolio of businesses focused on EPC and concession project opportunities in the attractive and growing energy and environmental markets, which despite short-term challenges are expected to continue growing.

        We have developed a leadership position in the energy sector in recent years, as highlighted by the following:

    we are the leading international contractor in power transmission and distribution of electricity in terms of revenues, the leading international contractor in power in terms of revenues, and the leading international contractor in co-generation and solar in terms of revenues (source: ENR);

    we are a global leader in solar CSP technology, having developed and built the first two commercial tower technology plants (PS10 and PS20) in Seville (Spain), the first integrated solar combined cycle ("ISCC") plant in the world in Ain-Beni-Mathar (Morocco) and the second ISCC plant in Hassi-R'Mel (Algeria) and continuing to work on two of the world's largest CSP plants under construction in Arizona (the Solana project) and California (the Mojave project); and together with Brightsource Energy, Inc. ("Brightsource"), we are jointly developing a project to build and operate the world's two largest solar power towers in Riverside, California; and

    we are a global leader in the biofuels industry, with plants in Europe, the United States and Brazil. We ranked first in Europe and seventh in the United States in first-generation bioethanol in terms of installed capacity (source: Ethanol Producer Magazine and ePURE) and enjoy a global leadership

      position in the development of technology for the production of second-generation bioethanol on a commercial scale.

        We are also dedicating significant efforts to developing our market position in the environmental sector, specifically within the water desalination industry, where we are ranked the 6th largest company in the world in terms of capacity. Furthermore, in 2012, we were awarded the distinction of "2012 Desalination Company of the Year" for our outstanding contribution in the desalination sector and recognized as one of the top four water companies of the year. Additionally, we were awarded the distinction of "2010 Desalination Deal of the year" for our water desalination project in Qingdao (China) and recognized as the "2009 Desalination Company of the Year" (Source: Global Water Intelligence ("GWI")).

Competitive advantage driven by our cutting edge technology and our extensive Engineering and Construction experience

        Our cutting edge technology is one of our central competitive advantages. Building on our extensive experience in our Engineering and Construction activity of providing turnkey engineering solutions as well as on our resilient earnings base and sustained record of profitability, over the last decade we have focused on using our engineering expertise and know-how to develop cutting edge technologies relating to sustainable development, particularly in technologies for markets with relatively high barriers to entry. Following this approach, we have made significant investments in new technologies at the vanguard of renewable energies such as ISCC plants and second-generation biofuels, which we believe may provide us with an early advantage as their commercial application becomes more widespread.

Strong financial discipline and liquidity profile supported by access to a diverse range of funding sources

        We have successfully grown our business while seeking to enforce strict financial discipline to maintain our strong liquidity position. As of June 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term financial investments of €3,222 million, which we believe are sufficient to satisfy our short-term liquidity needs. This strong cash position also assists in bidding for large projects. The financing of our projects is executed at two levels: (i) non-recourse debt, which is used at the project company level to fund, as the case may be, the engineering and construction works, operation of the concession-type infrastructures and industrial production projects, and which insulates the rest of the Group from any credit risk; and (ii) corporate debt, which is used to fund the rest of our operations.

        In addition, we have developed a strong network of relationships with international financial institutions and local banks, which have provided us with corporate and non-recourse financing. We have also obtained financial support from international and local development banks and government regulators such as the European Investment Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, the U.S. Department of Energy, Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social ("BNDES") in Brazil and Banco Nacional de Obras y Servicios Públicos ("Banobras") in Mexico. In addition, we have accessed the debt capital markets in different geographies and successfully raised funding through the issuance of bonds and convertible notes.

Entrepreneurial and experienced management team with proven track record and a clearly defined strategy

        Our senior management team holds a significant stake in our equity, has an average of 18 years of experience at our company and has led Abengoa through our significant growth and development, including periods of international expansion across all of our activities and the creation and development of our Solar, Water and Industrial Production businesses over the last decade. This proven growth track record has been possible thanks to our management team's focus on shareholder value and financial discipline across the Group.

Table of Contents

        Going forward, our senior management team has a defined and clear strategy and a strong commitment to continue delivering on its proven execution track record in the Engineering and Construction business; building a diversified asset portfolio both in terms of geography and sector in our Concession Type Infrastructures, which will become a sizeable source of cash while committing to invest a maximum equivalent to the E&C margin in a concession; and diversifying into new geographies and outputs our Industrial Production activity.

Our Growth Strategy

        Our objective is to create long-term value for our shareholders by becoming the leading global engineering and clean technology company providing innovative solutions for sustainability in the energy and environmental sectors. Key elements of our strategy for achieving this objective are as follows:

Maintain focus on operational excellence and technological development

        Given the importance of our technological leadership to our competitive advantage, we maintain this strength through significant investment in R&D&i which is undertaken by approximately 750 employees. We intend to maintain this effort to retain or enhance our market positions and cost competitiveness.

Maintain the mix of our business operations to operate a diversified business model

        We have been careful to expand our business in a balanced manner, seeking to ensure that we are not over-reliant on any particular product or service, geography or technology.

Take advantage of opportunities for organic cash flow generation in our growth markets

        We look to establish ourselves early in growth markets so that we can garner leadership positions in our businesses. We have significant experience in expanding into new and diverse markets with different regulatory regimes that allows us to adapt and to become familiar with new markets and technologies more quickly and helps us capitalize on future expansion opportunities in new markets.

        Our business is positioned for growth through the development of both existing operations and new investments. We have strict "return on investment" criteria that attempt to ensure that our growth plans generate long-term, sustainable cash flows for our business. In addition, we maintain strict discipline towards the deployment of new non-committed capital expenditures, committing to such investments only when long-term funding has been secured.

Maintain our competitive position

        We believe that we enjoy competitive advantages in many of our businesses due to factors such as our technological leadership position, know-how and scale, as well as the relatively high barriers to entry in certain key areas. We believe these are important factors in protecting our cash flows and profitability. We intend to continue to focus on efficiency measures and technology investments to seek to maintain our competitive advantages.

Asset rotation

        It is part of our strategy to unlock value through asset rotations, when we think that conditions are appropriate, in order to increase equity returns. We have a successful track record of monetizing certain of our investments, for example:

    in the fourth quarter of 2010, we completed the sale of our 25% interest in two power transmission lines in Brazil that resulted in €102 million of cash proceeds;

    in the third quarter of 2011, we completed the Telvent Disposal, which generated cash proceeds of €391 million;

 

8


Table of Contents

    in the fourth quarter of 2011, we executed the First Cemig Sale which resulted in the equivalent of €479 million of net cash proceeds in Brazilian reais;

    in the second quarter of 2012, we closed the Second Cemig Sale which resulted in the equivalent of €354 million of net cash proceeds in Brazilian reais;

    in the second quarter of 2013, we closed the sale of our Brazilian subsidiary, Bargoa S.A. ("Bargoa"), for a total sales price of $80 million, which resulted in approximately $50 million of cash proceeds; and

    in the second quarter of 2013, we entered into a share purchase agreement for the sale of 100% of our shares in our subsidiary, Befesa, which specializes in the integral management of industrial waste, to funds advised by Triton Partners. On July 15, 2013, we received €331 million in cash proceeds corresponding to the agreed price for the shares (and deferred compensation and other compensation totaling €289 million) and the sale transaction was closed.

        We intend to continue to actively follow an asset rotation strategy whereby we periodically sell assets or businesses in order to seek to optimize investment returns and free up capital for new investments or debt reduction. We intend to follow an opportunistic approach, whereby we consider to sell assets or businesses when we deem market conditions are attractive to us. Sales of assets or businesses may be material and may happen at any time.

Strengthen and diversify our capital structure and gain financial flexibility

        We are committed to maintaining a sound capital structure and a strong liquidity position. As such, we intend to extend the debt maturities of our existing corporate debt, prefund our cash needs and avoid committing to new projects unless we have first secured long-term financing. We aim to continue to access the global capital markets from time to time, as appropriate and subject to market conditions, in order to further diversify our funding sources.

        Through the execution of the Telvent Disposal, the Cemig Sales and the investment by First Reserve Corporation ("First Reserve"), we reduced our Net Debt by €1,667 million in the year 2011 and €473 million in the year 2012.

        At the project company level, we are also working on diversifying our funding sources by continuing to partner with leading energy companies such as General Electric, Eletrobrás, Cemig and E.ON, to co-fund our new investments.

Recent Developments

        On October 3, 2013, our subsidiary Abengoa Finance, S.A.U. issued an additional €250 million of Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018. We expect to use the entire amount of the net proceeds to prepay maturities on the 2012 Forward Start Facility due in 2014, by no later than the next interest payment date on such facility, which is January 22, 2014.

SUMMARY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        The following tables present summary consolidated financial and business level information for Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 and as of and for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008.

        The summary financial information as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is derived from, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, which are included elsewhere in this prospectus. The selected financial information as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 set forth below has been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, using as a basis our Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU for those years, which are not included herein. There are no differences, applicable to the Company, between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as adopted by the EU for any of the periods presented. As disclosed in "Presentation of Financial Information", the financial information as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 has been recasted in order to enhance the comparability of our financial disclosures for those years with 2013 and subsequent periods, to give effect to the facts described below. We have also recasted our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 included elsewhere in this prospectus. In addition, we have recasted the consolidated financial information for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 included in our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, which are also included elsewhere in this prospectus.

    IFRS 10 and 11

      In preparing the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group applied IFRS 10 and 11 that came into effect on January 1, 2013 under IFRS-IASB. The main impacts of the application of the new standards relate to the de-consolidation of companies that do not fulfill the conditions of effective control during the construction phase, now recorded under the equity method, and to the elimination of the proportional consolidation of the joint ventures, with the equity method being obligatory for recording its interest in the company. According to the terms and requirements established in IAS 8 for Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and to the specific transition guidance of the new standards, we have recasted the financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012. Financial information for prior periods has not been recasted for IFRS 10 and 11 and consequently is not comparable with other periods presented (see "Presentation of Financial Information", Note 2 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements).

    Befesa Sale

      On June 13, 2013 we entered into a share purchase agreement for the sale of 100% of our shares in our subsidiary Befesa. At the end of the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 all the conditions necessary to close the transaction were fulfilled, including the required approvals from the competition authorities. Accordingly, we have recorded the sale as of June 30, 2013, derecognizing the assets and liabilities of this shareholding and recognizing a gain of €0.4 million. On July 15, 2013, we received €331 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the price agreed for the shares and the sale of the transaction was definitely closed. We have used the proceeds from the Befesa Sale to replace expiring working capital facilities and to increase our flexibility to manage seasonal fluctuations in our working capital. Taking into account the significance of the activities carried out by Befesa to Abengoa, the sale of this shareholding is considered as a discontinued operation in accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations". In accordance with this standard, the results of Befesa until the closing of the sale and the result of this sale are included under a single heading (profit for the year from discontinued operations, net of tax)

Likewise, the consolidated income statement for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 also includes the results of Befesa under a single heading (see "Presentation of Financial Information", Note 7 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes 2 and 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements). The Befesa sale also resulted in the removal of the Industrial Recycling segment from our Industrial Production activity.

    IFRIC 12—Service concession arrangements

      IFRIC 12 "Service Concession Arrangements" became mandatory for annual periods commencing on or after January 1, 2008 and we began to apply it on that date, with the exception of thermo-solar assets in Spain.

      During 2009, 2010 and 2011, the Spanish government issued several laws and resolutions that regulate the market for renewable energy in Spain in general and thermo-solar activities in particular. Due to the legal uncertainty created during this period, we determined that our thermo-solar assets were not within the scope of IFRIC 12 until early 2011, when we received a set of individual rulings from the Spanish Ministry of Industry for each of our thermosolar assets. We originally concluded that through such rulings we were required to apply IFRIC 12 prospectively, from September 1, 2011, to our thermo-solar plants in Spain registered in the Pre-Allocation Registry. Upon prospective application of IFRIC 12, we reclassified the solar-thermal plant assets from "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" to "Intangible Assets in Projects" and, in accordance with IAS 11, the total contract revenue for the construction of the plants (including amounts previously eliminated in consolidation) began to be recognized from September 1, 2011 based on the percentage of completion method, up to the finalization of the plants. This treatment deferred recognition of the costs, margins and revenues generated up to that date and previously eliminated in consolidation prospectively, pro rata, over the term of the remaining construction period.

      During the year 2013, in connection with the review by the Staff of the SEC of the Registration Statement of which this prospectus is a part, we re-evaluated the assumptions made in 2011 which led to the application of the accounting policy for thermo-solar plants in Spain described above. On June 30, 2013, we decided, based on the provisions of IAS 8.14, to apply an alternative acceptable accounting treatment which would better reflect the reliability and comparability of financial information, consisting of the revision of the method in which we applied IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar assets in Spain already constructed or under construction upon application of IFRIC 12 and of the revision of the date on which IFRIC 12 was applied to our thermo-solar assets in Spain (January 1, 2011 instead of September 1, 2011). The revised accounting treatment consisted in applying IFRIC 12 prospectively, from January 1, 2011 by derecognizing, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, our thermosolar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognizing those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects". The difference of €165 million has been recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment in "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. From January 1, 2011, only the remaining contract revenue, costs and margins generated after such date for the ongoing construction of the plants began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11. In addition, the revenue and operating profit that was previously deferred upon original adoption of IFRIC 12 and recognized prospectively during fiscal years 2011 and 2012 has been eliminated. The change in application date resulted in the recognition of revenues and costs associated with the construction activities that occurred between January 1, 2011 and September 1, 2011, that were previously eliminated. In accordance with the terms and requirements of IAS 8 for Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, we applied this change in accounting policy by recasting the 2012 and 2011. The consolidated income statement and statement of financial position within our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements have not been recasted to

Amounts recasted to reflect retrospective application of IFRS 10 and 11 (see Note 2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 2 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements).

(2)
Amounts recasted to reflect the results of Befesa under a single heading in the consolidated income statement and under separate line items in the consolidated cash-flow statements (see Note 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 7 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements).

As of December 31, 2010 and during part of the year 2011, we held a 40% shareholding in Telvent. Despite partially reducing our share ownership in Telvent during 2009, we remained the largest shareholder and our 40% shareholding, along with our control of certain treasury shares held by Telvent, permitted us to exercise de facto control over Telvent. Therefore Telvent's financial information was fully consolidated with our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period of 2011 in which we held control over Telvent. On June 1, 2011, we announced the sale of our investment in Telvent to Schneider Electric S.A. ("SE") and on September 5, 2011 the transaction was completed. As a result and taking into account the significance of Telvent to us, Telvent was treated as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations". The results obtained from this sale are included under a single heading in the consolidated income statement and under separate line items in the consolidated cash flow statement for the year 2011 and the consolidated income statement for 2010 has been recasted to present Telvent as discontinued operations. Information presented above for the year ended December 31, 2009 has also been recasted to present Telvent as discontinued operations. In our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, Telvent was classified as discontinued operations due to a first intent to sell Telvent that did not finally materialize in that moment, thus financial information for the year ended December 31, 2008 has been obtained directly from our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008. For further information regarding the divestment of Telvent, see Note 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein.

(5)
Number of shares considered in all periods is after the increase in Class B shares distributed for no consideration approved by the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting on September 30, 2012 and considered effective on October 2, 2012 as described in "Principal Shareholders — Major Shareholders" and Note 32 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

(6)
Dividends paid per share have been calculated considering the post-split number of shares, restating prior periods in order to be consistent with the earnings per share calculation. Dividends paid in 2012 (in two payments in July and April, respectively), 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were €0.070 per share in the aggregate (U.S. $0.088), €0.040 per share (U.S. $0.054), €0.038 per share (U.S. $0.05), €0.036 per share (U.S. $0.054) and €0.034 per share (U.S. $0.044), respectively.

(7)
Consolidated EBITDA is calculated as profit for the year from continuing operations, after adding back income tax expense/(benefit), share of (loss)/profit of associates, finance expense net and depreciation, amortization and impairment charges of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries. Consolidated EBITDA is not a measurement of performance under IFRS as issued by the IASB and you should not consider Consolidated EBITDA as an alternative to operating income or consolidated profits as a measure of our operating performance, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of our ability to meet our

We believe that Consolidated EBITDA is a useful indicator of our ability to incur and service our indebtedness and can assist securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate us. Consolidated EBITDA and similar measures are used by different companies for different purposes and are often calculated in ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Consolidated EBITDA, after adding back research and development costs of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries. Research and development costs are added back because we consider these expenses as investments in our business that generate returns over the long-term. Corporate Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Consolidated EBITDA after adding back research and development costs of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries less EBITDA from non-recourse activities net of eliminations. According to the terms and conditions of the 2012 Forward Start Facility, Adjusted EBITDA does not include the effect of changes in accounting policies resulting from IFRS 10 and 11 and change in the application of IFRIC 12. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of performance under IFRS as issued by the IASB, and you should not consider Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Corporate Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to operating income or consolidated profits as a measure of our operating performance, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of our ability to meet our cash needs or any other measures of performance under IFRS as issued by the IASB. We believe that Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA are useful indicators of our ability to incur and service our corporate indebtedness, since the leverage ratio in the instruments governing our corporate indebtedness is generally calculated as a ratio of Net Corporate Debt to Corporate Adjusted EBITDA, and can assist investors and other parties to evaluate us. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA, and similar measures, are used by different companies for different purposes and are often calculated in ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of our historical operating results nor are they meant to be predictive of potential future results.

RISK FACTORS

        Investing in our Class B shares and ADSs involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with the other information contained in this prospectus, before making any investment decision. Any of the following risks and uncertainties could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. The market price of our Class B shares and ADSs could decline due to any of these risks and uncertainties, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business and the Markets in Which We Operate

Difficult conditions in the global economy and in the global capital markets have caused, and may continue to cause, a sharp reduction in worldwide demand for our products and services, and negatively impact our access to the levels of financing necessary for the successful development of our existing and future projects and the successful refinancing of our corporate indebtedness

        Our results of operations have been, and continue to be, materially affected by conditions in the global economy and in the global capital markets. Concerns over inflation, energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, sovereign debt and the instability of the euro have contributed to increased volatility and diminished expectations for the economy and global capital markets going forward. These factors, combined with volatile oil prices, declining global business and consumer confidence and rising unemployment, have precipitated an economic slowdown and have led to a recession and weak economic growth. The economic instability and uncertainty may affect the willingness of companies to make capital expenditures and investment in the markets in which we operate. These events and continuing disruptions in the global economy and in the global capital markets may, therefore, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, even in the absence of a market downturn, we are exposed to substantial risk of loss due to market volatility with certain factors, including consumer spending, business investment, government spending, the volatility and strength of capital markets, inflation affecting the business and economic environment and, ultimately, the amount and profitability of our business.

        Generalized or localized downturns or inflationary pressures in our key geographical areas could also have a material adverse effect on the performance of our business. A significant portion of our business activity is concentrated in Spain, Brazil and the United States, and we are significantly affected by the general economic conditions in these countries. Spain has recently experienced negative economic conditions, including high unemployment and significant government debt which we believe could adversely affect our operations in the near future. We are a Spanish company and our share capital is denominated in euro. The effects on the European and global economy of any exit of one or more member states (each a "Member State") from the Eurozone, the dissolution of the euro and the possible redenomination of our share capital, financial instruments or other contractual obligations from euro into a different currency, or the perception that any of these events are imminent, are inherently difficult to predict and could give rise to operational disruptions or other risks of contagion to our business and have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation. In addition, to the extent uncertainty regarding the European economic recovery continues to negatively impact government or regional budgets or demand for our environmental services, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Moreover, many of our customers are continually seeking to implement measures aimed at greater cost savings, including efforts to improve cost efficiencies. These and other factors could therefore result in our customers reducing their budgets for spending on our products and services.

        The global capital and credit markets have experienced periods of extreme volatility and disruption since the last half of 2008. Continued disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the global capital and credit markets may limit our access to additional capital required to operate or grow our business, including our access to non-recourse project finance which we use to fund many of our projects, even in cases where such capital has

26


Table of Contents

already been committed. Such market conditions may limit our ability to replace, in a timely manner, maturing liabilities and access the capital necessary to grow our business, or replace financing previously committed for a project that ceases to be available to it. As a result, we may be forced to delay raising capital, issue shorter-term securities than we prefer, or bear a higher cost of capital which could decrease our profitability and significantly reduce our financial flexibility. In the event that we are required to replace previously committed financing to certain projects that subsequently becomes unavailable, we may have to postpone or cancel planned capital expenditures or construction projects.

Decreases in government budgets, reductions in government subsidies and adverse changes in law may adversely affect our business and the development of existing and new projects

        Economic instability and difficult economic conditions in Spain have resulted in a decline in tax revenue obtained by our public administration customers at a time of rising public sector deficits. In Spain, for example, reductions in government infrastructure budgets have had a significant impact on our results of operations as a substantial percentage of our revenue is derived from services we provide as a contractor or subcontractor on various projects with governmental entities, including state-owned companies. In addition, in July 2013, the Spanish government passed a new law related to the electricity sector in Spain, which implementation may have a material adverse impact on our thermo-solar electricity generation activity in Spain which, in turn, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations as a whole. See "—We are subject to extensive governmental regulation in a number of different jurisdictions, and our inability to comply with existing regulations or requirements or changes in applicable regulations or requirements may have a negative impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition" and "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Royal Decree Law 9/2013" for further information. In the United States, due to the failure of the U.S. Congress to enact a plan by February 28, 2013 to reduce the federal budget deficit by $1.2 trillion, $85 billion of automatic budget cuts went into effect on March 1, 2013 reducing discretionary spending by all agencies of the Federal government for the remainder of the Federal fiscal year ending September 30, 2013. These cuts affect, among others, the U.S. Treasury's program providing for cash grants in lieu of investment tax credits. See "Regulation—United States Regulations—Solar Regulation—Renewable Energy Incentives in the United States—Cash Grant in Lieu of ITC." In addition, a number of states and municipal authorities are experiencing severe fiscal pressures as they seek to address mounting budget deficits. These factors may adversely affect demand for our products and services by such customers and therefore the growth of our business.

        Poor economic conditions have affected, and continue to affect, government budgets and threaten the continuation of government subsidies such as feed-in tariffs, tax benefits and other similar subsidies that benefit our business. Such conditions may also lead to adverse changes in law, such as the recent change in Spanish tax law affecting our ability to deduct finance expenses. The reduction or elimination of such subsidies or adverse changes in law could have a material adverse impact on the profitability of our existing projects and the development of new projects undertaken in reliance on the continuation of such subsidies.

The revenue from the solar and biofuel projects that we undertake in our Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production activities, respectively, may be adversely affected if there is a decline in public acceptance and support of renewable energy

        Certain persons, associations and groups of people could oppose renewable energy projects, citing, for example, misuse of water resources, landscape degradation, land use, food scarcity or price increase and harm to the environment. Moreover, regulation may restrict the development of renewable energy plants in certain areas. In order to develop a renewable energy project, a solar power plant, or other infrastructure project, we are typically required to obtain, among other things, environmental impact permits or other authorizations and building permits, which in turn require environmental impact studies to be undertaken and public hearings and comment periods to be held during which any person, association or group may oppose a project. Any such opposition may be taken into account by government officials responsible for

27


Table of Contents

granting the relevant permits, which could result in the permits being delayed or not being granted or being granted solely on the condition that we carry out certain corrective measures to the proposed project.

        As a result, we cannot guarantee that all of the renewable energy plants or infrastructure that we currently plan to develop or, to the extent applicable, are developing will ultimately be authorized or accepted by the local authorities or the local population. For example, the local population could oppose the construction of a renewable energy plant or infrastructure at the local government level, which could in turn lead to the imposition of more restrictive requirements.

        In certain jurisdictions, if a significant portion of the local population were to mobilize against the construction of a renewable energy plant or infrastructure, it may become difficult, or impossible, for us to obtain or retain the required building permits and authorizations. Moreover, such challenges could result in the cancellation of existing building permits or even, in extreme cases, the dismantling of, or the retroactive imposition of changes in the design of, existing renewable energy plants or infrastructure.

        A decrease in acceptance of renewable energy plants or infrastructure by local populations, an increase in the number of legal challenges, or an unfavorable outcome of such legal challenges could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely on certain regulations, subsidies and tax incentives which may be changed or legally challenged

        We rely in a significant part on environmental and other regulation of industrial and local government activities, including regulations mandating, among other things, reductions in carbon or other greenhouse gas emissions and minimum biofuel content in fuel or use of energy from renewable sources. If the businesses to which such regulations relate were deregulated or if such regulations were materially changed or weakened, the profitability of our current and future projects could suffer, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, uncertainty regarding possible changes to any such regulations have adversely affected in the past, and may adversely affect in the future, our ability to finance a project or to satisfy other financing needs.

        Subsidy regimes for renewable energy generation have been challenged in the past on constitutional and other grounds (including that such regimes constitute impermissible European Union state aid) in certain jurisdictions. In addition, certain loan guarantee programs in the United States, including those which have enabled the U.S. Department of Energy (the "DOE") to provide loan guarantees in respect of our Solana, Mojave and Hugoton projects, have been challenged on grounds of failure by the appropriate authorities to comply with applicable U.S. federal administrative and energy law. If all or part of the subsidy and incentive regimes for renewable energy generation in any jurisdiction in which we operate were found to be unlawful and, therefore, reduced or discontinued, we may be unable to compete effectively with conventional and other renewable forms of energy or we may be unable to complete certain ongoing projects. For information regarding recent adverse regulatory developments in Spain, see "—We are subject to extensive governmental regulation in a number of different jurisdictions, and our inability to comply with existing regulations or requirements or changes in applicable regulations or requirements may have a negative impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition" and "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Royal Decree Law 9/2013" for further information.

        The production from our renewable energy facilities is the subject of various tax relief measures or tax incentives in the jurisdictions in which they operate. These tax relief and tax incentive measures play an important role in the profitability of projects that we develop. In the future, it is possible that some or all of these tax incentives will be suspended, curtailed, not renewed or revoked. If this happens, the profitability of our current plants and our ability to finance future projects would be adversely affected, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to extensive governmental regulation in a number of different jurisdictions, and our inability to comply with existing regulations or requirements or changes in applicable regulations or requirements may have a negative impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition

        We are subject to extensive regulation of our business in Spain, the United States and in a significant number of the countries in which we operate. Such laws and regulations require licenses, permits and other approvals to be obtained in connection with the operations of our activities. This regulatory framework imposes significant actual, day-to-day compliance burdens, costs and risks on us. In particular, the power plants that we operate in our Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production activities are subject to strict international, national, state and local regulations relating to their development, construction and operation (including, among other things, land acquisition, leasing and use, and the corresponding building permits, landscape conservation, noise regulation, environmental protection and environmental permits and energy power transmission and distribution network congestion regulations). Non-compliance with such regulations could result in the revocation of permits, sanctions, fines or even criminal penalties. Compliance with regulatory requirements, which may in the future include increased exposure to capital markets regulations, may result in substantial costs to our operations that may not be recovered. In addition, we cannot predict the timing or form of any future regulatory or law enforcement initiatives. Changes in existing energy, environmental and administrative laws and regulations may materially and adversely affect our business, products, services, margins and investments. Our business may also be affected by additional taxes imposed on our activities, reduction of regulated tariffs and other cuts or measures. For example, on December 27, 2012, a Spanish law established a new tax on electricity production, imposing a 7% levy on revenue received from power generation, including the revenues generated by our thermo-solar plants, and thermo-solar plants additionally lost the premium for power generation versus the use of natural gas. See "Regulation—Spain—Law 15/2012 on Tax Measures for Energy Sustainability" for further information. Further, on February 1, 2013, a new law limited remuneration schemes for renewable energy producers by eliminating pool plus premium pricing and established additional measures, including a reduction in the applicable adjustment for changes in the consumer price index. The government also introduced a measure that will exclude from the feed-in tariff the power produced by thermo-solar installations using gas (going forward, payment for this energy will be at market price), although it is yet to be determined how such use of gas will be measured. These laws have materially adversely affected our thermo-solar electricity generation activity in Spain, including causing in certain cases restrictions on dividends of the affected subsidiaries to be triggered due to the decline in revenues caused thereby, and any additional regulatory cuts or measures introduced in the future, may further reduce the earnings generated by our affected subsidiaries which, in turn, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations as a whole. In May 2013, we commenced legal proceedings against the Spanish government challenging these measures, and we intend to continue vigorously protecting our interests. In July 2013, the Spanish government passed a new law related to the electric sector in Spain, the goal of which is to achieve financial stability in the sector by approving a new legal and remuneration special regime for installations producing electricity from renewable energy sources, among other things. Until new regulations resulting from the law are developed, the existing regulations shall temporarily continue. Any change arising from the regulations to be approved by the Spanish government within the frame of Royal Decree Law 9/2013 may have a material adverse impact on our thermo-solar electricity generation activity in Spain which, in turn, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations as a whole. See "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Royal Decree Law 9/2013" for further information. Further, similar changes in laws and regulations could increase the size and number of claims and damages asserted against us or subject us to enforcement actions, fines and even criminal penalties. In addition, changes in laws and regulations may, in certain cases, have retroactive effect and may cause the result of operations to be lower than expected. In particular, our activities in the energy sector are subject to regulations applicable to the economic regime of generation of electricity from renewable sources and to subsidies or public support in the

29


Table of Contents

benefit of the production of biofuels from renewable energy sources, which vary by jurisdiction, and are subject to modifications that may be more restrictive or unfavorable to us.

Our business is subject to stringent environmental regulation

        We are subject to significant environmental regulation, which, among other things, requires us to perform environmental impact studies on future projects or changes to projects, obtain regulatory licenses, permits and other approvals and comply with the requirements of such licenses, permits and other approvals. There can be no assurance that:

    governmental authorities will approve these environmental impact studies;

    public opposition will not result in delays, modifications to or cancellation of any proposed project or license; or

    laws or regulations will not change or be interpreted in a manner that increases our costs of compliance or materially or adversely affects our operations or plants or our plans for the companies in which we have an investment or to which we provide our services.

        We believe that we are currently in material compliance with all applicable regulations, including those governing the environment. While we employ robust policies with regard to environmental regulation compliance, there are occasions where regulations are breached. On occasion, we have been found not to be in compliance with certain environmental regulations, and have incurred fines and penalties associated with such violations which to date have not been material in amount. We can give no assurance, however, that we will continue to be in compliance or avoid material fines, penalties, sanctions and expenses associated with compliance issues in the future. Violation of such regulations may give rise to significant liability, including fines, damages, fees and expenses, and site closures. Generally, relevant governmental authorities are empowered to clean up and remediate releases of environmental damage and to charge the costs of such remediation and cleanup to the owners or occupiers of the property, the persons responsible for the release and environmental damage, the producer of the contaminant and other parties, or to direct the responsible parties to take such action. These governmental authorities may also impose a tax or other liens on the responsible parties to secure the parties' reimbursement obligations.

        In Brazil, environmental liability applies to any individual or legal entity (whether public or private) that directly or indirectly causes, by action or omission, any damage to the environment. A sole fact may result in liability of three types (civil, administrative and criminal) independently or cumulatively. Brazilian courts may even lift the corporate veil in circumstances where a company is found to evade an environmental obligation to indemnify damage. When the veil of the corporation is lifted, the shareholders, rather than Abengoa itself, may be personally liable to redress the damage.

        Environmental regulation has changed rapidly in recent years, and it is possible that we will be subject to even more stringent environmental standards in the future. For example, our activities are likely to be covered by increasingly strict national and international standards relating to climate change and related costs, and may be subject to potential risks associated with climate change, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We cannot predict the amounts of any increased capital expenditures or any increases in operating costs or other expenses that we may incur to comply with applicable environmental, or other regulatory, requirements, or whether these costs can be passed on to customers through product price increases.

We face pressure to improve the competitiveness of our renewable energy services and products

        To ensure our long-term future, we must be able to compete on a non-subsidized basis with conventional and other renewable energy sources. The current levels of government support for renewable energy are generally intended to grant the industry a "grace period" to reduce the cost per kilowatt-hour of electricity or per gasoline gallon equivalent generated through technological advances, cost reductions and

30


Table of Contents

process improvements. Consequently, and as generation or production costs decrease, this level of government support is likely to be gradually phased out for many critical projects in the future, although existing and commissioned projects are expected to continue to benefit from feed-in tariffs or similar government incentives as already set. In the medium- to long-term, a gradual but significant reduction of the tariffs, premiums and incentives for renewable energy is likely. If these reductions continue and/or increase, market participants, including ourselves, may need to reduce prices to remain competitive against other alternatives. If cost reductions and product innovations do not occur, or occur at a slower pace than is required to achieve the necessary price reductions, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

        We also face significant competition from other renewable energy providers. With regard to the solar industry, we believe it may see significantly increased competition, as a result of new market entrants and/or substitute renewable energy sources due to increased demand for renewable energy sources. Other contributing factors to this increased competition are lower barriers to entry in these markets due to the increased standardization of technologies, improved funding opportunities and increased governmental support. Although we endeavor to maintain our competitiveness, no assurance can be given that we will succeed. Our failure to compete successfully would negatively impact our ability to grow our business and generate revenue, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Increases in the cost of energy and gas could significantly increase our operating costs

        Some of our activities require significant consumption of energy and gas, and we are vulnerable to material fluctuations in their prices. Although our energy and gas purchase contracts generally include indexing mechanisms, we cannot guarantee that these mechanisms will cover all of the additional costs generated by an increase in energy and gas prices, particularly for long-term contracts, and some of the contracts entered into by us do not include any indexing provisions. Significant increases in the cost of energy or gas, or shortages of the supply of energy and/or gas, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business has substantial capital expenditure requirements which requires us to have access to the global capital markets for financing

        We have significant capital expenditure requirements which necessitates continued access to the global capital markets, as well as R&D&i costs and extensive construction costs for power transmission lines, solar power plants and installations, co-generation power plants, infrastructure for the production of ethanol and desalination plants. Our capital expenditure and R&D&i requirements depend on the number and type of projects we undertake in the future. Under concessions and other agreements, we have committed to certain future capital expenditures (see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations—Capital Expenditures"). Any recovery of our capital expenditures and R&D&i requirements, especially those made in respect of our concessions, will occur over a substantial period of time. Moreover, we may be unable to recoup our investments in these projects due to delays, cost overruns and general timing issues as to when revenue can be derived from these projects.

        We must also continue to make significant expenditures on R&D&i in order to maintain and improve our competitive position. Furthermore, certain of our competitors may have substantially greater financial resources than we do. Any failure by us to react quickly and effectively to technological changes, or to obtain necessary financing to conduct appropriate R&D&i activities, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Transactions with counterparties exposes us to credit risk which we must effectively manage to mitigate the effect of counterparty defaults

        We are exposed to the credit risk implied by default on the part of a counterparty (a customer, provider, partner or financial entity), which could impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although we actively manage this credit risk through the use of non-recourse factoring contracts, which involves banks and third parties assuming a counterparty's credit risk, and credit insurance, our risk management strategy may not be successful in limiting our exposure to credit risk, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be subject to increased finance expenses if we do not effectively manage our exposure to interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risks

        We are exposed to various types of market risk in the normal course of business, including the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Some of our indebtedness bears interest at variable rates, generally linked to market benchmarks such as EURIBOR and LIBOR. Any increase in interest rates would increase our finance expenses relating to our variable rate indebtedness and increase the costs of refinancing our existing indebtedness and issuing new debt (see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations—Interest Rates"). In addition, we conduct our business and incur costs in the local currency of the countries in which we operate. As we continue expanding our business into existing markets such as North America and Latin America, and into new markets such as the Middle East, North Africa, India, China and Australia, we expect that a large and increasing percentage of our revenue and cost of sales will be denominated in currencies other than our reporting currency, the euro. As a result, we will become subject to increasing currency translation risk, whereby changes in exchange rates between the euro and the other currencies in which we do business could result in foreign exchange losses.

        We seek to actively manage these risks by entering into interest rate options and swaps to hedge against interest rate risk and future currency sale and purchase contracts and foreign exchange rate swaps to hedge against foreign exchange rate risk. If our risk management strategies are not successful in limiting our exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our competitive position could be adversely affected by changes in technology, prices, industry standards and other factors

        The markets in which our activities operate change rapidly because of technological innovations and changes in prices, industry standards, product instructions, customer requirements and the economic environment. New technology or changes in industry and customer requirements may render existing products or services obsolete, excessively costly or otherwise unmarketable. As a result, we must continuously enhance the efficiency and reliability of our existing technologies and seek to develop new technologies in order to remain at the forefront of industry standards and customer requirements. If we are unable to introduce and integrate new technologies into our products and services in a timely and cost-effective manner, our competitive position will suffer and our prospects for growth will be impaired.

The delivery of our products and services to our customers and our performance under our contracts with our customers may be adversely affected by problems related to our reliance on third-party contractors and suppliers

        The supply of some of our contracts includes services, equipment or software which we subcontract to subcontractors, and some of our key products and services use items from third-party suppliers. The delivery of products or services which are not in compliance with the requirements of the subcontract, or the late supply of products and services, can cause us to be in default under our contracts with our customers. To the

32


Table of Contents

extent we are not able to transfer all of the risk or be fully indemnified by third-party contractors and suppliers, we may be subject to a claim by our customers as a result of a problem caused by a third-party that could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may be adversely affected by risks associated with acquisitions or investments in joint ventures with third parties

        If we decide to make certain acquisitions or financial investments in order to expand or diversify our business, we may take on additional debt to pay for such acquisitions. Moreover, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to complete all, or any, such external expansion or diversification transactions that we might contemplate in the future. To the extent we do, such transactions expose us to risks inherent in integrating acquired businesses and personnel, such as the inability to achieve projected synergies; difficulties in maintaining uniform standards, controls, policies and procedures; recognition of unexpected liabilities or costs; and regulatory complications arising from such transactions. Furthermore, the terms and conditions of financing for such acquisitions or financial investments could restrict the manner in which we conduct our business, particularly if we were to use debt financing. These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

        In addition, we have made significant investments in certain strategic development projects with third parties, including governmental entities and private entities. In certain cases, these projects are developed pursuant to joint venture agreements over which we only have partial or joint control. Investments in projects over which we have partial or joint control are subject to the risk that the other shareholders of the joint venture, who may have different business or investment strategies than us or with whom we may have a disagreement or dispute, may have the ability to block business, financial or management decisions, such as the decision to distribute dividends or appoint members of management, which may be crucial to the success of the project or our investment in the project, or otherwise implement initiatives which may be contrary to our interests. Our partners may be unable, or unwilling, to fulfill their obligations under the relevant joint venture agreements and shareholder agreements or may experience financial or other difficulties that may adversely impact our investment in a particular joint venture. In certain of our joint ventures, we may also be reliant on the particular expertise of our partners and, as a result, any failure to perform our obligations in a diligent manner could also adversely impact the joint venture. If any of the foregoing were to occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our backlog of unfilled orders is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations and is, therefore, not a fully accurate indicator of our future revenue or earnings

        At June 30, 2013, our backlog was €7,133 million. Our backlog represents management's estimate of the amount of contract awards that we expect to result in future revenue. Backlog is calculated based on the same criteria for each of our activities. A project for which the related contract has been signed is included in the calculation of the project portfolio value. A signed contract represents a legally binding agreement, meaning a secure revenue source in the future. The sole exception is CSP (Concentrated Solar Power) plants for EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) projects, which are considered in the amount of our backlog despite not having a contract signed, as they have been granted a feed-in tariff. Furthermore, we do not include in backlog predicted sales from our concession activities, such as energy sales, power transmission and water sales or commodity sales, or our industrial production activities, such as biofuel sales. Our backlog does include expected revenue based on engineering and design specifications that may not be final and could be revised over time, and also includes expected revenue for government and maintenance contracts that may not specify actual monetary amounts for the work to be performed. For these contracts, our backlog is based on an estimate of work to be performed, which is based on our knowledge of our customers' stated intentions. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations—Backlog and Concessions" and "Business" for more information. Furthermore, our ability to execute our backlog is dependent on our ability to meet our

33


Table of Contents

operational and financing needs, and if we are unable to meet such needs, our ability to execute our backlog could be adversely affected, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

        There can be no assurance that the revenue projected in our backlog will be realized or, if realized, will result in profit. Because of project terminations or suspensions and changes in project scope and schedule, we cannot predict with certainty when, or if, our backlog will be actualized. We can provide no assurance that we will not receive additional cancellations, and, even where a project proceeds as scheduled, it is possible that the customer may default and fail to pay amounts owed to us. Material delays, cancellations or payment defaults could materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

        Our definition of backlog may not necessarily be the same as that used by other companies engaged in activities similar to ours. As a result, the amount of our backlog may not be comparable to the backlog reported by such other companies.

We have international operations, including in emerging markets, that could be subject to economic, social and political uncertainties

        We operate our activities in a range of international locations, including Australia, Latin America (including Brazil), China, India, North America, the Middle East and Africa, and expect to expand our operations into new locations in the future. Accordingly, we face a number of risks associated with operating in different countries that may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. These risks include, but are not limited to, adapting to the regulatory requirements of such countries, compliance with changes in laws and regulations applicable to foreign corporations, the uncertainty of judicial processes, and the absence, loss or non-renewal of favorable treaties, or similar agreements, with local authorities or political, social and economic instability, all of which can place disproportionate demands on our management, as well as significant demands on our operational and financial personnel and business. As a result, we can provide no assurance that our future international operations will remain successful.

        In addition, we conduct business in various emerging countries worldwide. Our activities in these countries involve a number of risks that are more prevalent than in developed markets, such as economic and governmental instability, the possibility of significant amendments to, or changes in, the application of governmental regulations, the nationalization and expropriation of private property, payment collection difficulties, social problems, substantial fluctuations in interest and exchange rates, changes in the tax framework or the unpredictability of enforcement of contractual provisions, currency control measures and other unfavorable interventions or restrictions imposed by public authorities. In recent months, political upheaval, civil unrest and, in some cases, regime change and armed conflict, have occurred in certain countries in the Middle East and North Africa, including Egypt, Syria, Libya and Tunisia. Such events have increased political instability and economic uncertainty in certain countries in the Middle East and North Africa where we currently operate or may seek to operate. Although our activities in emerging markets are not concentrated in any specific country (other than Brazil), the occurrence of one or more of these risks in a country or region in which we operate could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our growth may be limited by our inability to obtain new sites and expand existing ones

        Our ability to maintain our competitive position and meet our growth objectives for our operations and, in particular, our Industrial Production activity and the Co-generation segment of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity depend on our ability to upgrade existing sites or acquire or lease additional sites in strategically located areas. Our ability to obtain new sites and expand existing sites is limited by regulation and geographic considerations. Government restrictions, including environmental, public health and technical restrictions, limit where our facilities and plants can be located. The process of obtaining planning permission

34


Table of Contents

and licenses or permits to build, operate or expand our facilities and plants involve extended hearings and compliance with planning, environmental and other regulatory requirements. We may not be successful in obtaining the planning permissions, licenses or permits we require or such planning permissions, license or permits may contain onerous terms and conditions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, objections from the public are capable of delaying, and even preventing, the proposed construction of a new or expanded facility or plant and the operation of a facility or plant. As a result, we may not be able to obtain extra site capacity where it is required. In some instances, it is also necessary for us to negotiate separate agreements with local authorities and third parties, such as landowners, who can make demands for additional obligations.

        Our solar power plants can only be constructed in locations with suitable weather conditions, sufficient levels of solar radiation, access to water and suitable topographic features. Accordingly, the number of feasible sites available for solar power plants is limited in many countries, including Spain and the United States, particularly as growth in the number of installed solar plants can restrict the number of sites available for additional plants; recent growth in the number of solar energy operators has increased competition for available sites. Moreover, although we undertake extensive studies before investing in the development of any particular site, the sites we choose to develop might not perform to our expectations. If these constraints on the establishment of solar power plants were to intensify, or if the sites we ultimately choose to develop do not perform as expected, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The construction projects in our Engineering and Construction activity and the facilities we operate in our Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production activities are inherently dangerous workplaces at which hazardous materials are handled. If we fail to maintain safe work environments, we can be exposed to significant financial losses, as well as civil and criminal liabilities

        The construction projects we undertake in our Engineering and Construction activity and the facilities we operate in our Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production activity often put our employees and others in close proximity with large pieces of mechanized equipment, moving vehicles, manufacturing or industrial processes, heat or liquids stored under pressure and highly regulated materials. On most projects and at most facilities, we are responsible for safety and, accordingly, must implement safe practices and safety procedures. If we fail to design and implement such practices and procedures or if the practices and procedures we implement are ineffective, our employees and others may become injured and our and others property may become damaged. Unsafe work sites also have the potential to increase employee turnover, increase the cost of a project to our customers or the operation of a facility, and raise our operating costs. Any of the foregoing could result in financial losses, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

        In addition, our projects and the operation of our facilities can involve the handling of hazardous and other highly regulated materials, which, if improperly handled or disposed of, could subject us to civil and criminal liabilities. We are also subject to regulations dealing with occupational health and safety. Although we maintain functional groups whose primary purpose is to ensure we implement effective health, safety, and environmental work procedures throughout our organization, including construction sites and maintenance sites, the failure to comply with such regulations could subject us to liability. In addition, we may incur liability based on allegations of illness or disease resulting from exposure of employees or other persons to hazardous materials that we handle or are present in our workplaces.

        Our safety record is critical to our reputation. Many of our customers require that we meet certain safety criteria to be eligible to bid for contracts, and many contracts provide for automatic termination or forfeiture of some, or all, of its contract fees or profit in the event we fail to meet certain measures. As a result, our failure to maintain adequate safety standards could result in reduced profitability or the loss of projects or

clients, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business may be adversely affected by catastrophes, natural disasters, adverse weather conditions, unexpected geological or other physical conditions, or criminal or terrorist acts at one or more of our plants, facilities and construction sites

        If one or more of our plants, facilities or construction sites were to be subject in the future to fire, flood or a natural disaster, adverse weather conditions, terrorism, power loss or other catastrophe, or if unexpected geological or other adverse physical conditions were to develop at any of our plants, facilities or construction sites, we may not be able to carry out our business activities at that location or such operations could be significantly reduced. This could result in lost revenue at these sites during the period of disruption and costly remediation, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, despite security measures taken by us, it is possible that our sites relating to our Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production activities or other sites, could be affected by criminal or terrorist acts. Any such acts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our insurance may be insufficient to cover relevant risks and the cost of our insurance may increase

        Our business is exposed to the inherent risks in the markets in which we operate. Although we seek to obtain appropriate insurance coverage in relation to the principal risks associated with our business, we cannot guarantee that such insurance coverage is, or will be, sufficient to cover all of the possible losses we may face in the future. If we were to incur a serious uninsured loss or a loss that significantly exceeded the coverage limits established in our insurance policies, the resulting costs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

        In addition, our insurance policies are subject to review by our insurers. If the level of premiums were to increase in the future, or certain types of insurance coverage were to become unavailable, we might not be able to maintain insurance coverage comparable to those that are currently in effect at comparable cost, or at all. If we were unable to pass any increase in insurance premiums on to our customers, such additional costs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be subject to litigation and other legal proceedings

        We are subject to the risk of legal claims and proceedings and regulatory enforcement actions in the ordinary course of our business and otherwise. The results of legal and regulatory proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. We cannot guarantee that the results of current or future legal or regulatory proceedings or actions will not materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations nor can we guarantee that we will not incur losses in connection with current or future legal or regulatory proceedings or actions that exceed any provisions we may have set aside in respect of such proceedings or actions or that exceed any available insurance coverage, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. See "Business — Legal Proceedings."

Unauthorized use of our proprietary technology by third parties may reduce the value of our products, services and brand, and impair our ability to compete effectively

        We rely across our business on a combination of trade secret and intellectual property laws, non-disclosure and other contractual agreements and technical measures to protect our proprietary rights. These measures may not be sufficient to protect our technology from third-party infringement and, notwithstanding any remedies available, could subject us to increased competition or cause us to lose market share. In addition, these measures may not protect us from the claims of employees and other third parties.

36


Table of Contents

We also face risks with respect to the protection of our proprietary technology because the markets where our products are sold include jurisdictions that provide less protection for intellectual property than is provided under the laws of the United States or the European Union. Unauthorized use of our intellectual property could weaken our competitive position, reduce the value of our products, services and brand, and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business may suffer if we are sued for infringing upon the intellectual property rights of third parties

        We are subject to the risk of adverse claims and litigation alleging our infringement of the intellectual property rights of others. In the future, third parties may assert infringement claims, alleging infringement by our current, or future, services or solutions. These claims may result in protracted and costly litigation, may subject us to liability if we are found to have infringed upon third parties' intellectual property rights, and, regardless of the merits or ultimate outcome, may divert management's attention from the operation of our business.

Our business will suffer if we do not retain our senior management and key employees or if we do not attract and retain other highly skilled employees

        Our future success depends significantly on the full involvement of our senior management and key employees, who have valuable expertise in all areas of our business. Our ability to retain and motivate our senior management and key employees and attract highly skilled employees will significantly affect our ability to run our business successfully and to expand our operations in the future. If we were to lose one or more of our senior management or, for example, valuable local managers with significant experience in the markets in which we operate, we might encounter difficulty in appointing replacements. This could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The analysis of whether IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities, and the determination of the proper accounting treatment at each period end if it is determined that IFRIC 12 is to be applied, involves various complex factors and is significantly affected by legal and accounting interpretations. If the criteria for us to classify our thermo-solar plants in Spain as service concession agreements within the scope of IFRIC 12 do not continue to be met, or if we had to apply IFRIC 12 retrospectively rather than prospectively, our results of operations for the periods presented in this prospectus would be significantly different

        We account for certain of our Concession-Type Infrastructure assets as service concession agreements in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 12. The infrastructures accounted for by us as service concessions under IFRIC 12 are mainly related to the activities concerning power transmission lines, desalination plants and thermo-solar electricity generation plants outside of Spain and (with prospective application from January 1, 2011) in Spain.

        The analysis of whether IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities involves various complex factors and it is significantly affected by legal interpretation of certain contractual agreements or other terms and conditions with public sector entities. In particular, the application of IFRIC 12 requires a determination that the grantor of the concession governs what services the operator must provide using the infrastructure, to whom and at what price and also controls any significant residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the term of the arrangement. When the operator of the infrastructure is also responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction of such asset, IFRIC 12 requires the separate accounting for the revenue and margins associated with the construction activities, which is not eliminated in consolidation even between companies within the same consolidated group, and for the subsequent operation and maintenance of the infrastructure. In such cases, the investment in the infrastructure used in the concession arrangement cannot be classified as property, plant and equipment of the operator, but rather must be classified as a financial asset or an intangible asset, depending on the nature of the payment rights established under the contract.

37


Table of Contents

        Therefore, the application of IFRIC 12 requires extensive judgment in relation to, among other factors, (i) the identification of certain infrastructures and contractual agreements in the scope of IFRIC 12, (ii) the understanding of the nature of the payments in order to determine the classification of the infrastructure as a financial asset or as an intangible asset and (iii) the timing and recognition of the revenue from construction and concessionary activity.

        Changes in one or more of the factors described above may significantly affect our conclusions as to the appropriateness of the application of IFRIC 12 and, therefore, our results of operations or our financial position. As a result, if we determined that those assets were no longer within the scope of IFRIC 12, the revenue and associated margins realized by us during the construction phase of the affected assets would no longer be recognized in accordance with IFRIC 12 but rather would be eliminated in consolidation, resulting in a decrease in revenue and profits in our consolidated income statement for the period reported, and a reclassification from intangible assets to property, plant and equipment on the consolidated balance sheet. As such, a determination that those assets ceased to be within the scope of IFRIC 12 would affect the comparability of our results of operations and our financial condition for the periods, and as of the dates, before and after the date on which we made that determination.

        For more information about the application of IFRIC 12, see "Presentation of Financial Information—Application of IFRIC 12".

Market perceptions concerning the instability of the euro, the potential re-introduction of individual currencies within the Eurozone, or the potential dissolution of the euro entirely, could adversely affect our business or financial position

        As a result of the credit crisis in Europe, in particular in Greece, Italy, Ireland, Portugal and Spain, the European Commission created the European Financial Stability Facility (the "EFSF") and the European Financial Stability Mechanism (the "EFSM") to provide funding to Eurozone countries in financial difficulties that seek such support. Throughout 2011, the EFSF and EFSM undertook a series of interventions to provide direct financing or other credit support to European governments. In March 2011, the European Council agreed on the need for Eurozone countries to establish a permanent stability mechanism, the European Stability Mechanism, which will be activated by mutual agreement, to assume the role of the EFSF and the EFSM in providing external financial assistance to Eurozone countries after June 2013. In July 2011, the European Council agreed to enlarge the EFSF capital guarantee from €440 billion to €780 billion, a decision which was ratified by all relevant national legislatures in October 2011. In October 2011, the European Council agreed to increase the ability of the EFSF to intervene in sovereign debt markets by granting it the ability to offer insurance to third parties purchasing Eurozone sovereign debt. Throughout 2012, certain Eurozone states announced austerity programs and other cost-cutting initiatives, and the EFSF was permitted to further expand its powers to provide direct loans to certain Eurozone financial institutions, including certain such institutions in Spain. Despite these measures, there can be no assurance that the recent market disruptions in Europe related to sovereign debt, including the increased cost of funding for certain governments and financial institutions, will not continue, nor can there be any assurance that future assistance packages will be available or, even if provided, will be sufficient to stabilize the affected countries and markets in Europe or elsewhere.

        Uncertainty persists regarding the debt burden of certain Eurozone countries and regional governments and the solvency of certain European financial institutions and their respective ability to meet future financial obligations. The protracted adverse market conditions have created doubts as to the overall stability of the euro and the suitability of the euro as a single currency given the diverse economic and political circumstances in individual Member States. These and other concerns could lead to the re-introduction of individual currencies in one or more Member States, or, in more extreme circumstances, the possible dissolution of the euro entirely. Should the euro dissolve entirely, the legal and contractual consequences for holders of euro-denominated obligations would be determined by laws in effect at such time. These potential developments, or market perceptions concerning these and related issues, could adversely affect our business

or our financial position, as a significant principal amount of our outstanding debt securities is denominated in euro.

The recoverability of our deferred tax assets depends on our future taxable income, which depends on management estimates that are uncertain

        Our management assesses the recoverability of deferred tax assets on the basis of estimates of future taxable profit. These estimates are derived from the projections included in our five- and ten-year strategic plans, which are prepared on a yearly basis and reviewed twice a year for the accuracy of the assumptions used. As of June 30, 2013, a significant portion of our deferred tax assets are tax credits, which include mostly tax loss carryforwards in Brazil, the United States and Spain and tax credits relating to tax incentives principally generated in Spain from our investments in R&D&i and export activities, whose recoverability depends mostly on our capacity to generate future taxable income in such countries. Based on our current estimates we expect to generate sufficient future taxable income to achieve the realization of our current tax credits and tax loss carryforwards, supported by our historical trend of business performance. However, our current and deferred income taxes may be impacted by events and transactions arising in the normal course of business as well as by special non-recurring items. Changes in the assumptions and estimates made by management may result in the de-recognition of these deferred tax assets on our balance sheet if we consider that it is not probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized, with a corresponding charge to income tax expense in the consolidated income statement, although there would be no impact on cash flows.

Risks Related to the Engineering and Construction Activity

Our current and future fixed-price contracts may result in significant losses if costs are greater than anticipated

        Many of our EPC contracts are fixed-price contracts which contain inherent risks because we agree to the selling price of the project at the time we enter into the contract. The selling price is based on estimates of the ultimate cost of the contract and we assume substantially all of the risks associated with completing the project, as well as the post-completion warranty obligations. Most EPC contracts are fixed-price turnkey projects where we are responsible for all aspects of the work, from engineering through construction, as well as commissioning, all for a fixed selling price.

        In addition, we assume a project's technical risk and associated warranty obligations on all of our projects, meaning that we must tailor products and systems to satisfy the technical requirements of a project even though, at the time the project is awarded, we may not have previously produced such a product or system. Warranty obligations can range from re-performance of engineering services to modification or replacement of equipment. We also assume the risks related to revenue, cost and gross profit realized on such contracts that can vary, sometimes substantially, from the original projections due to changes in a variety of other factors, including but not limited to:

    engineering design changes;

    unanticipated technical problems with the equipment being supplied or developed by us, which may require that we spend our own money to remedy the problem;

    changes in the cost of components, materials or labor;

    difficulties in obtaining required governmental permits or approvals;

    changes in local laws and regulations;

    changes in local labor conditions;

    project modifications creating unanticipated costs;

39


Table of Contents

    delays caused by adverse weather conditions; and

    project owners', suppliers' or subcontractors' failure to perform.

        These risks may be exacerbated by the length of time between signing a contract and completing the project because most of the projects that we execute are long-term. In addition, we sometimes bear the risk of delays caused by unexpected conditions or events. We may be subject to penalties if portions of the long-term, fixed-priced projects are not completed in accordance with agreed-upon time limits.

Failure by us to successfully defend against claims made against us by customers, suppliers or subcontractors, or failure by us to recover adequately on claims made against customers, suppliers or subcontractors, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations

        Our projects generally involve complex engineering, procurement of supplies and construction management. We may encounter difficulties in the engineering, equipment delivery, schedule changes and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, that affect our ability to complete the project in accordance with the original delivery schedule or to meet the contractual performance obligations. In addition, we rely on third-party partners, equipment manufacturers and subcontractors to assist us with the completion of our contracts. As such, claims involving customers, suppliers and subcontractors may be brought against us, and by us, in connection with our project contracts. Claims brought against us include back charges for alleged defective or incomplete work, breaches of warranty and/or late completion of the project and claims for cancelled projects. The claims and back charges can involve actual damages, as well as contractually agreed upon liquidated sums. Claims brought by us against customers include claims for additional costs incurred in excess of current contract provisions arising out of project delays and changes in the previously agreed scope of work. Claims between us and our suppliers, subcontractors and vendors include claims like any of those described above. These project claims, if not resolved through negotiation, are often subject to lengthy and expensive litigation or arbitration proceedings. Charges associated with claims could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The performance of our Engineering and Construction activity is substantially dependent on the growth of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity

        Our Engineering and Construction activity is our largest activity by revenue. A significant component of the revenue of our Engineering and Construction activity relates to works on owned assets and the construction of new infrastructure assets used in the Concession-Type Infrastructures activity, primarily power plants, power transmission lines and water infrastructure. As a result, revenue and profits from our Engineering and Construction activity are substantially dependent on global demand for new power plants, power transmission lines and water infrastructure, and the ability of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity to win concession-type arrangements associated with such infrastructure. If we are unsuccessful in growing our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity and obtaining new concession-type arrangements, whether due to reductions in capital expenditures we plan to make on owned assets over the next several years following significant expenditures in recent years, declines in global demand for new power plants, power transmission lines and water infrastructure or otherwise, revenue and profits from our Engineering and Construction activity will decline, which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The nature of our Engineering and Construction activity exposes us to potential liability claims and contract disputes which may reduce our profits

        Our Engineering and Construction activity engages in operations where failures in design, construction or systems can result in substantial injury or damage to third parties. In addition, the nature of our Engineering and Construction activity results in customers, subcontractors and vendors occasionally

40


Table of Contents

presenting claims against us for recovery of cost they incurred in excess of what they expected to incur, or for which they believe they are not contractually liable. We have been, and may in the future, be named as a defendant in legal proceedings where parties may make a claim for damages or other remedies with respect to our projects or other matters. These claims generally arise in the normal course of our business. When it is determined that we have liability, we may not be covered by insurance or, if covered, the financial amount of these liabilities may exceed our policy limits.

Risks Related to the Concession-Type Infrastructures Activity

Development, construction and operation of new projects may be adversely affected by factors commonly associated with such projects

        The development, construction and operation of conventional power plants, renewable energy facilities, water infrastructure plants, power transmission lines and a number of our other projects can be time-consuming and highly complex. In connection with their development and financing, we must generally obtain government permits and approvals and sufficient financing, as well as enter into land purchase or leasing agreements, equipment procurement and construction contracts, operation and maintenance agreements, fuel supply and transportation agreements and any off-take arrangements. Factors that may affect our ability to construct new projects include, among others:

    delays in obtaining regulatory approvals, including environmental permits;

    shortages or changes in the price of equipment, materials or labor and related budget overruns;

    adverse changes in the political and/or regulatory environment in the jurisdictions in which we operate;

    adverse weather conditions or natural disasters, accidents or other unforeseen events; and

    the inability to obtain financing on satisfactory terms or at all.

        Any of these factors may cause delays in commencement or completion of our projects and may increase the cost of projects. If we are unable to complete contemplated projects, the costs incurred in connection with such projects may not be recoverable, which may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The concession agreements under which we conduct some of our operations are subject to revocation or termination

        Certain of our operations are conducted pursuant to concessions granted by various governmental bodies. Generally, these concessions give us rights to provide services for a limited period of time, subject to various governmental regulations. The governmental bodies responsible for regulating these services often have broad powers to monitor our compliance with the applicable concession contracts and can require us to supply them with technical, administrative and financial information. Among other obligations, we may be required to comply with investment commitments and efficiency and safety standards established in the concession. Such commitments and standards may be amended in certain cases by the governmental bodies. Our failure to comply with the concession agreements or other regulatory requirements may result in concessions not being granted, upheld or renewed in our favor, or, if granted, upheld or renewed, may not be done on as favorable terms as currently applicable. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For more information, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Factors Affecting our Results of Operations — Backlog and Concessions".

Revenue from our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity is significantly dependent on regulated tariffs or other long-term fixed rate arrangements that restrict our ability to increase revenue from these operations

        The revenue that we generate from our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity is significantly dependent on regulated tariffs or other long-term fixed rate arrangements. Under most of our concession agreements, a tariff structure is established in such agreements, and we have limited, or no possibility to independently raise tariffs beyond the established rates. Similarly, under a long-term power purchase agreement, we are required to deliver power at a fixed rate for the contract period, with limited escalation rights. In addition, we may be unable to adjust our tariffs or rates as a result of fluctuations in prices of raw materials, exchange rates, labor and subcontractor costs during the construction phase and the operating phase of these projects, or any other variations in the conditions of specific jurisdictions in which our concession-type infrastructure projects are located, which may reduce our revenue. Moreover, in some cases, if we fail to comply with certain pre-established conditions, the government or customer (as applicable) may reduce the tariffs or rates payable to us. In addition, during the life of a concession, the relevant government authority may unilaterally impose additional restrictions on our tariff rates, subject to the regulatory frameworks applicable in each jurisdiction. Governments may also postpone annual tariff increases until a new tariff structure is approved without compensating us for lost revenue. Furthermore, changes in laws and regulations may, in certain cases, have retroactive effect and expose us to additional compliance costs or interfere with our existing financial and business planning. In the case that any one or more of these events occur, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our Water segment depends significantly on public spending on infrastructure-related water projects and services, and reduced government spending could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations

        During 2012 and the first half of 2013, the majority of the revenue from the Water segment of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity was generated from contracts with governmental entities. Many of these public entities with which we do business are municipalities with limited budgets that are susceptible to annual fluctuations from year to year. The budgets of such municipalities are often dependent on the collection of local taxes or national government grants. As a result, resources that may be available to municipalities for infrastructure-related projects and services may become limited, with little or no notice. In addition, measures aimed at correcting the current economic environment have increased budget deficits of many of the national, regional and local governments and public administrations with which we do business, and no assurance can be given that funding for infrastructure-related projects and services will remain available at previous levels. Furthermore, the competition from competitors for publicly funded works has become increasingly intense, which may affect our margins in the future. Our dependence on public spending, coupled with increasing competition, may lead to reductions in our water concession revenue, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Revenue from our power generation facilities is partially exposed to market electricity prices

        In addition to regulated incentives, revenue from certain of our projects partially depends on market prices for sales of electricity. Market prices may be volatile and are affected by various factors, including the cost of raw materials, user demand, and if applicable, the price of greenhouse gas emission rights.

        In several of the jurisdictions in which we operate, we are exposed to remuneration schemes which contain both regulated incentive and market price components. In such jurisdictions, the regulated incentive component may not compensate for fluctuations in the market price component, and, consequently, total remuneration may be volatile.

42


Table of Contents

        There can be no assurance that market prices will remain at levels which enable us to maintain profit margins and desired rates of return on investment. A decline in market prices below anticipated levels could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our solar projects will be negatively affected if there are adverse changes to national and international laws and policies that support renewable energy sources

        Recently, certain countries, such as the United States, a market that has become our principal market, have enacted policies of active support for renewable energy. These policies have included feed-in tariffs and renewable energy purchase obligations, mandatory quotas and/or portfolio standards imposed on utilities and certain tax incentives (such as the Investment Tax Credit in the United States). See "Regulation."

        Although support for renewable energy sources by governments and regulatory authorities in the jurisdictions in which we operate has historically been strong, and European authorities, along with the United States government, have reaffirmed their intention to continue such support, certain policies currently in place may expire, be suspended or be phased out over time, cease upon exhaustion of the allocated funding or be subject to cancellation or non-renewal. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that such government support will be maintained in full, in part or at all. In Spain, after years of strong support, the Spanish government has adopted a series of measures (including measures with retroactive effect) that have significantly and adversely affected the prospects of renewable energy in Spain. See "Regulation —Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Law 15/2012 on Tax Measures for Energy Sustainability," "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Royal Decree Law 2/2013, and "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Royal Decree Law 9/2013."

        Recently, the United States Congress reduced funding for a loan guarantee program that benefits, among other energy-related projects, solar power generation. In addition, on March 1, 2013, due to the failure of the U.S. Congress to enact a plan by February 28, 2013 to reduce the federal budget deficit by $1.2 trillion, $85 billion of automatic budget cuts (known as "sequestration") went into effect reducing discretionary spending by all agencies of the Federal government for the remainder of the Federal fiscal year ending September 30, 2013. These cuts affect, among others, the U.S. Treasury's program providing for cash grants in lieu of investment tax credits.

        If the governments and regulatory authorities in the jurisdictions in which we operate were to further decrease or abandon their support for development of solar energy due to, for example, competing funding priorities, political considerations or a desire to favor other energy sources, renewable or otherwise, the power plants we plan to develop in the future could become less profitable or cease to be economically viable. Such an outcome could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Lack of power transmission capacity availability, potential upgrade costs to the power transmission grid, and other systems constraints could significantly impact our ability to build photovoltaic ("PV") and CSP plants and generate solar electricity power sales

        In order to deliver electricity from our PV and CSP plants to our customers, our projects need to connect to the power transmission grid. The lack of available capacity on the power transmission grid could substantially impact our projects and cause reductions in project size, delays in project implementation, increases in costs from power transmission upgrades, and potential forfeitures of any deposit we have made with respect to a given project. These power transmission issues, as well as issues relating to the availability of large systems such as transformers and switch gear, could significantly impact our ability to build PV and CSP plants and generate solar electricity sales.

Risks Related to Our Industrial Production Activity

The ability of our Industrial Production activity to operate at a profit is largely dependent on managing the spread among the prices of inputs (grain, sugarcane, natural gas and others) and outputs (ethanol, sugar, DGS and others), the prices of which are subject to significant volatility and uncertainty

        The results of the Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity are highly impacted by commodity prices, including the spread between the cost inputs that we must purchase and the price of outputs that we sell. Prices and supplies are subject to, and determined by, market forces over which we have no control, such as weather, domestic and global demand, shortages, export prices, and various governmental policies in the United States, Europe, Brazil and around the world. As a result of price volatility for these commodities, the operating results of the Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity may fluctuate substantially. Increases in input or decreases in output prices may make it unprofitable to operate our plants. In the last quarter of 2011 and 2012, our Biofuels segment was adversely affected by rising raw materials costs of grains and sugar resulting from drought conditions in the United States and heavy rainfall in Brazil, respectively, as well as low gasoline demand that depressed ethanol prices. No assurance can be given that we will be able to purchase corn and natural gas at, or near, favorable prices and that we will be able to sell ethanol, sugar or distillers grains at, or near, favorable prices. Consequently, our results of operations and financial position may be adversely affected by increases in the price of inputs or decreases in the price of outputs.

Our revenue may decrease, and operating costs may increase, if we do not effectively manage our exposure to commodity prices and supply risks through our hedging arrangements and other strategies

        We are exposed to fluctuations in the price and supply of commodities in the Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity. The Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity competes with the food market for the supply of grain, such as wheat, barley, corn, sorghum, and sugar. Consequently, any increases in the cost of grains increase our costs of ethanol production. We use hedging arrangements, including future sale and purchase contracts and options listed on organized markets, as well as over-the-counter contracts, to mitigate these risks. Such arrangements, however, do not fully eliminate our exposure to commodity prices and supply risk, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The price of ethanol from sugarcane is directly correlated to the price of sugar and is becoming closely positively correlated to the price of oil, so that a decline in the price of sugar will adversely affect our revenue from the sale of ethanol and a decline in the price of oil may adversely affect our revenue from the sale of ethanol

        The price of ethanol, generally, is closely associated with the price of sugar, and, to some degree, is increasingly correlated to the price of oil. A significant portion of our ethanol production in Brazil is produced at sugarcane mills that produce both ethanol and sugar. Because sugarcane millers are able to alter their product mix in response to the relative prices of ethanol and sugar, this results in the prices of both products being directly correlated, and the correlation between ethanol and sugar may increase over time. In addition, sugar prices in Brazil are determined by prices in the global market, so that there is a strong correlation between Brazilian ethanol prices and global sugar prices.

        Because flex-fuel vehicles allow consumers to choose between gasoline and ethanol at the fuel pump, ethanol prices are now becoming increasingly positively correlated to gasoline prices and, consequently, oil prices. We believe that the positive correlation between these products will increase over time. Accordingly, a decline in sugar prices will have an adverse effect on the financial performance of our ethanol and sugar businesses, and a decline in oil prices may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition

and results of operations. However, biofuels are not the only alternative fuel for the transportation sector currently under development in the market. Future demand for fuel will depend on the relative attractiveness of other technologies, such as electric vehicles, synthetic fuels and other fossil fuels such as methane or liquid petroleum gas. Certain of these technological initiatives receive public support from governments. If biofuels do not remain an attractive alternative fuel competitive with gasoline and other emerging technologies, such occurrence may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely on third-party distribution agreements for our products which we may not be able to maintain

        We currently have several long-term contracts for the distribution of ethanol and biodiesel for a number of our plants. If these long-term contracts were not renewed, or were renewed on terms less favorable to us, it may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity may be adversely affected due to a change in the public opinion regarding the use of grain and sugar for the production of ethanol

        We may face adverse public opinion to the use of grain and sugar for the production of ethanol. Governments responding to public pressure may put in place measures to divert the supply of grain and sugar away from ethanol production and towards the food market, thereby inhibiting our current ethanol production activities or our plans for future expansion, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our revenue from the Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity may be affected by adverse weather conditions, disease, government programs, competition, government regulation and various factors beyond our control

        Adverse weather conditions, disease, plantings, government programs and policies, competition and changes in global demand are factors that have historically caused damage to, and affected related prices in, grain and sugar cane crops, reducing our pool of supply for ethanol production, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, government regulation of biofuels, including the elimination of existing subsidies for biofuels in some of the markets in which we operate, may have the result of changing consumer preferences or the prices by which we produce and market such biofuels.

Our Industrial Production activity is subject to an increasingly demanding level of governmental regulations and environmental legislation

        Our Industrial Production activity is subject to an increasingly demanding level of governmental regulations. Among other things, these laws and regulations impose comprehensive local, state, municipal, foreign and supranational statutory and regulatory requirements concerning, among other matters, the treatment, acceptance, identification, storage, handling, transportation and disposal of industrial by-products, hazardous and solid waste materials, air emissions and soil contamination. In addition, environmental liability in Brazil is strict and joint. As a result, we may be held liable for damages caused to the environment by third parties hired by us for waste disposal and other services. There can be no assurance that potential liabilities, expenditures, fines and penalties associated with environmental laws and regulations will not be imposed on us in the future or that such liabilities, expenditures, fines or penalties will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Our Indebtedness

We operate with a high amount of indebtedness and we may incur significant additional debt

        Our operations are capital intensive and we operate with a significant amount of indebtedness, which, as of June 30, 2013, totaled €10,549.6 million, of which €5,252.0 million was corporate financing and €5,297.6 million was non-recourse financing. Additionally, we have additional corporate borrowing capacity of €581.0 million which we may incur without triggering a breach of our financial covenants. Moreover, as a result of our implementation of the new accounting standards set forth in IFRS 10, which came into effect on January 1, 2013, for purposes of the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and, with respect to 2012, the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, we have de-consolidated companies that do not fulfill the conditions of effective control of the interest during the construction phase in terms of decision making for their integration in our financial statements according to the equity method. However, it is expected that these projects will be fully consolidated again once they enter into operation and we gain control over them, with corresponding significant increases in our long-term non-recourse project financing, among others. Our indebtedness may increase, from time to time, in the future for various reasons, including fluctuations in operating results, capital expenditures and potential acquisitions or joint ventures. Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences to you. For example, it could:

    make it more difficult for us to successfully refinance upcoming maturities;

    make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our outstanding debt obligations;

    increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

    require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, R&D&i and other general corporate purposes;

    limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the market in which we operate;

    place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; and

    limit our ability to borrow additional funds.

        If operating cash flows and other resources (for example, any available debt or equity funding or the proceeds of asset sales or short-term financing lines) are not sufficient to repay obligations as they mature or fund liquidity needs, we may be forced to do one or more of the following:

    delay or reduce capital expenditures;

    forego business opportunities, including acquisitions; or

    restructure or refinance all, or a portion, of our debt on or before maturity,

any or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and, therefore, on the ability of the obligors under that debt to perform their respective obligations in respect of our debt.

        If we were to fail to satisfy any of our debt service obligations or to breach any related financial or operating covenants, the lender could declare the full amount of the indebtedness to be immediately due and payable and could foreclose on any assets pledged as collateral. Further, certain of our financing arrangements contain cross-default provisions such that a default under one particular financing arrangement could automatically trigger defaults under other financing arrangements. Such cross-default provisions could, therefore, magnify the effect of an individual default. As a result, any default under any indebtedness to which we are a party could result in a substantial loss to us or could otherwise have a material

46


Table of Contents

adverse effect on our and our subsidiaries' ability to perform our and their respective obligations in respect of any of our debt obligations.

        Despite our significant current leverage, the terms of the indentures and other agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness will permit us and our subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates to incur substantial additional debt, including secured debt, in the future. If we incur additional debt, the related risks we now face could intensify.

        Furthermore, we rely to a significant extent on short-term financing lines to finance our working capital requirements. If these lines are withdrawn, reduced or otherwise not available to us, we could be required to seek other sources of financing which could involve incurring substantial additional debt, including secured debt, in the future, if available. If we are not able to replace any short-term financing lines with other sources of financing on a timely basis, or at all, this would have a material adverse effect on our liquidity position.

Our operating flexibility may be reduced by restrictive covenants in the agreements governing our indebtedness and other financial obligations

        The agreements governing our indebtedness and other financial obligations applicable to us and certain of our subsidiaries contain various negative and affirmative covenants, including the requirement to maintain certain specified financial ratios. Depending on the agreement, these covenants reduce our operating flexibility as they limit our and certain of our subsidiaries' ability to, among other things: incur additional indebtedness; make distributions, loans, and other types of restricted payments; liquidate or dissolve the applicable companies; enter into any spin-off, transformation, merger, or acquisition, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the applicable agreement; and change the nature or scope of the lines of business. If we or any of our applicable subsidiaries violate any of these covenants, a default may result, which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of our debt and could limit the ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions to us.

To service our indebtedness, we will require a significant amount of cash. We have generated significant negative cash outflows in the last three fiscal years and our liabilities at the end of each of those years have exceeded our tangible assets. Our ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond our control.

        As a result of the investments we have made in our activities in the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, which totaled €2,214.5 million, €2,912.9 million and €2,094.4 million, respectively, and in the first half of 2013, which totaled €765.9 million in capital expenditures, we have generated a significant amount of negative cash outflows during each of those periods, and our liabilities at each respective period end have exceeded our tangible assets.

        Our ability to make payments on, and to refinance, our indebtedness and fund planned capital expenditures and R&D&i initiatives will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. In addition, a substantial part of the non-recourse financing of our project companies is fully amortized over the term of such debt, and we rely on cash flows from such operating companies to meet our payment obligations thereunder. Our cash flow, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. Based on our current level of operations, we believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and available borrowings under our credit facilities will be adequate to meet our future liquidity needs for at least twelve months. We cannot assure you, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations; that ongoing cost savings and operating improvements will be realized on schedule; that we will be able to maintain the same terms for our payments and collections and therefore maintain our negative working capital balance; or that future borrowings will be available to us under our credit facilities in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs or to enable us to pursue our uncommitted capital expenditure plan (see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

47


Table of Contents

Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources"). We may need to refinance all, or a portion, of our indebtedness on or before maturity. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

We may not be able to raise the funds necessary to finance a mandatory prepayment of amounts outstanding under certain of our credit facilities in the event of a change of control if so required by a majority of the lenders or a change of control offer required by the indentures governing our outstanding debt securities

        Under the terms of certain of our credit facilities, the majority of the lenders (as defined in each such facility) under each such facility have the right to require early repayment of all outstanding borrowings under such facility, together with accrued interest and all accrued commissions and expenses, upon a person or entity other than our current controlling shareholder gaining control of us. Under the terms of our outstanding debt securities, we are required to offer to repurchase such debt securities if Abengoa experiences a change of control as defined in the indentures governing such debt securities. We may be unable to raise sufficient funds at the time of a change of control to make such mandatory repayment of all outstanding borrowings under those credit facilities or repurchase such debt securities.

Existing and potential future defaults by subsidiaries, joint ventures or associates pursuant to non-recourse indebtedness could adversely affect us

        We attempt to finance certain of our projects and significant investments, including capital expenditures typically relating to concessions or fixed tariff take-or-pay agreements, primarily under loan agreements and related documents which, except as noted below, require the loans to be repaid solely from the revenue of the project being financed thereby, and provide that the repayment of the loans (and interest thereon) is secured solely by the shares, physical assets, contracts and cash flow of that project company. This type of financing is usually referred to herein as "non-recourse debt" or "project financing." As of June 30, 2013, we had €10,549.6 million outstanding indebtedness on a consolidated basis, of which €5,297.6 million was non-recourse debt.

        While the lenders under our non-recourse project financings do not have direct recourse to us or our subsidiaries (other than the project borrowers under those financing), defaults by the project borrowers under such financings can still have important consequences for us and our subsidiaries, including, without limitation:

    reducing our receipt of dividends, fees, interest payments, loans and other sources of cash, since the project company will typically be prohibited from distributing cash to us and our subsidiaries during the pendency of any default;

    causing us to record a loss in the event the lender forecloses on the assets of the project company; and

    the loss or impairment of investors' and project finance lenders' confidence in us.

Any of these events could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Any future credit rating downgrade may impair our ability to obtain financing and may significantly increase our cost of indebtedness

        Credit ratings affect the cost and other terms upon which we are able to obtain financing (or refinancing). Rating agencies regularly evaluate us and their ratings of our default rate and existing capital markets debt are based on a number of factors, including the credit rating of the Kingdom of Spain, where we are incorporated. On April 26, 2012, Standard & Poor's ("S&P") Rating Services downgraded the debt of Spain from "A" to "BBB+", citing concerns related to the negative economic growth and the capital adequacy of certain Spanish financial institutions. This was followed by rating downgrades by Fitch Ratings, Inc. ("Fitch") on June 7, 2012, which lowered Spain's rating from "A" to "BBB" with a negative outlook and

48


Table of Contents

Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") on June 13, 2012, which likewise lowered Spain's rating from "A3" to "Baa3." S&P announced on October 10, 2012 that it had further lowered its long-term sovereign credit rating of the Kingdom of Spain to "BBB-" from "BBB+" and the short-term sovereign credit rating to A-3 from A-2, with a negative outlook on the long-term rating.

        Partially as a result of the downgrade of Spain, where we are incorporated, on July 17, 2012, Moody's downgraded our corporate family rating and probability of default rating from "Ba3" to "B1" with a stable outlook. Concurrently, Moody's downgraded the rating on certain of our existing high-yield notes from "Ba3" to "B1." On November 30, 2012 Moody's changed to negative from stable the outlook on the B1 rating of our corporate family and such high-yield notes and downgraded them on March 20, 2013 from B1 to B2 with a stable outlook. On December 27, 2012, S&P changed the perspective of the B+ rating from stable to watch negative of our corporate family and such high yield notes and S&P downgraded them on April 3, 2013 to "B" with negative outlook.

        In addition, on July 25, 2012, Fitch downgraded our long-term issuer default rating from "BB" to "B+" with a stable outlook.

        Any future downgrade of the Kingdom of Spain, our corporate family or of our outstanding nonconvertible debt securities may impede our ability to obtain financing on commercially acceptable terms, or on any terms at all, or it may interfere with our ability to implement our corporate strategy. There can be no assurance that further credit ratings downgrades, either of Spain or our Group, will not occur. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Ownership of the ADSs and Class B shares

The trading price of our ADSs and dividends paid on our ADSs may be materially adversely affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate for converting euros into U.S. dollars

        Market prices for our ADSs may fall if the value of euros declines against the U.S. dollar. The U.S. dollar amount of cash dividends and other cash payments made to holders of our ADSs would be reduced if the value of euros declines against the U.S. dollar.

Holders of our ADSs may not be able to exercise their voting rights due to delays in notification to and by the depositary

        The rights of shareholders under Spanish law to take actions such as voting their shares, receiving dividends and distributions, bringing derivative actions, examining our accounting books and records and exercising appraisal rights are available only to shareholders of record. Because the depositary, through its custodian, will be the record holder of the Class B shares underlying the ADSs, a holder of ADSs will not be entitled to the same rights as a shareholder. In its capacity as an ADS holder, an investor in the Company's ADSs will not able to vote, bring a derivative action, examine our accounting books and records or exercise appraisal rights, except through the depositary.

        The depositary for our ADSs may not receive voting materials for our Class B shares represented by our ADSs in time to ensure that holders of our ADSs can instruct the depositary to vote their shares. In addition, the depositary's liability to holders of our ADSs for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions is limited by the Deposit Agreement governing our ADR facility. As a result, holders of our ADSs may not be able to exercise their right to vote and may have limited recourse against the depositary or us, if their shares are not voted according to their request. Although holders or owners of ADSs who withdraw Class B shares from the depositary may vote those Class B shares directly, such holders or owners of the ADSs may not receive sufficient advance notice of shareholder meetings to enable them to withdraw the shares and vote at such meetings.

Table of Contents

Holders of our ADSs will have limited recourse if we or the depositary fail to meet our respective obligations under the Deposit Agreement.

        The Deposit Agreement expressly limits our obligations and liability and those of the depositary. Neither we nor the depositary will be liable if either:

    is prevented from or delayed in performing any obligation by circumstances beyond our/their control;

    exercises or fails to exercise discretion under the Deposit Agreement; or

    takes any action based upon the advice of, or information from, legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting ordinary shares for deposit, any holder or owner of our ADSs or any other person believed by us or the depositary in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information. In addition, the depositary has the obligation to participate in any action, suit or other proceeding with respect to our ADSs which may involve it in expense or liability only if it is indemnified. These provisions of the Deposit Agreement will limit the ability of holders of our ADSs to obtain recourse if we or the depositary fails to meet their obligations under the Deposit Agreement or if they wish to involve us or the depositary in a legal proceeding.

Because Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A., as the direct and indirect holder of 59.97% of our Class A shares, will control the majority of the voting power of our outstanding share capital, other shareholders will be unable to affect the outcome of shareholder votes with respect to most events.

        Our Class A shares have 100 votes per share and our Class B shares have one vote per share. Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. directly and indirectly owns 59.97% of our issued and outstanding Class A shares, representing 59.20% of the combined voting power of our aggregate issued and outstanding Class A and Class B shares and 47.11% of the economic interest in our outstanding Class A and Class B shares. In the event that all holders of Class A shares other than Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. convert their Class A shares to Class B shares, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. would hold 94.88% of the total combined voting power of our aggregate issued and outstanding Class A and Class B shares (subject to its agreement entered into on August 27, 2012 with us not to exercise voting rights in excess of 55.93% of the voting power in the Company unless its ecomonic rights in us exceed such amount). Accordingly, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. has and is expected to maintain the ability to determine the outcome of shareholder votes with respect to most events that may require shareholder approval, including:

    mergers, consolidations and other business combinations;

    election or non-election of directors;

    removal of directors; and

    certain amendments to our Bylaws.

        As a result, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. may be able to effectively approve or prevent a merger, consolidation or other business combination, elect or not elect directors, approve or prevent the removal of a director and approve or prevent amendments to our Bylaws. Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A.'s interests in any of these matters may be contrary to the interests of the rest of the holders of our Class B shares.

        On September 30, 2012, the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting approved a modification of our Bylaws to enable the holders of Class B shares to enforce certain minority protection rights afforded by Spanish corporate laws to holders of shares representing specified percentages of a company's share capital, including among others the right to request the calling of an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, to add items to the agenda of any general shareholders meeting and to challenge resolutions passed by the board of directors. Notwithstanding this, holders of Class B shares will not, in practice, be able to appoint

50


Table of Contents

directors by virtue of the proportional representation mechanism (representación proporcional), which is only available to holders of at least 5% of the Company's share capital.

        For more information regarding the shareholdings of Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A., see "Principal Shareholders — Major Shareholders."

Our dual-class share structure with different voting rights could discourage others from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of our Class B shares and ADSs may view as beneficial

        We have two classes of voting shares. Holders of Class A shares are entitled to 100 votes per share, while holders of Class B shares are entitled to one vote per share. Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. directly and indirectly owns 59.97% of our issued and outstanding Class A shares, representing 59.20% of the combined voting power of our aggregate issued and outstanding Class A and Class B shares and 47.11% of the economic interest in our outstanding Class A and Class B shares.

        Due to the disparate voting rights attached to our Class A and Class B shares, holders of our Class A shares and, in particular, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. will have significant voting power over matters requiring shareholder approval, including election of directors and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or sale of our company or our assets. Because this concentrated control could discourage others from pursuing any potential merger, takeover or other change of control transactions that holders of Class B shares and ADSs may view as beneficial, the market price of our Class B shares and ADSs could be adversely affected.

        In addition, holders of ADSs and Class B shares may not have the same protections as the Class A shares in the event of a takeover bid by a third-party offeror for all of the outstanding voting shares of Abengoa. Under Spanish tender offer legislation, it is not clear whether in such event the offeror would be obligated to offer to holders of Class B shares the same price per share that it offers to holders of our Class A shares. Our Bylaws provide holders of Class B shares with the right to have their shares redeemed under certain circumstances for consideration equal to the price per share offered to holders of the Class A shares in a takeover bid launched for 100% of the voting shares not providing the same treatment for holders of Class A shares and of Class B shares. Because the inclusion of such redemption right in our Bylaws may discourage others from pursuing a voluntary takeover bid that holders of our Class B shares and ADSs may view as beneficial, the market price of our Class B shares and ADSs could be adversely affected.

While our Class B shares and ADSs have similar economic rights to our Class A shares, they may trade at different prices from our Class A shares

        While our Class B shares have different voting rights from our Class A shares, the two classes of shares are similar in terms of the economic rights that attach to them. In particular, each Class B share grants its holder, among other things, the rights to receive the same dividend, the same payment on liquidation, the same restitution of contributions in the event of any capital reduction, the same distribution of reserves of any kind or of the issue premium and any other allocations as the Class A shares. Moreover, in the event of any capital increase, holders of the Class A shares and Class B shares are both entitled to preemptive subscription rights allowing them, upon exercise of such rights, to maintain their respective percentage ownership interest in the share capital of Abengoa.

        Despite having similar economic rights, however, the Class A shares and the Class B shares have traded in the past at different prices from each other. We cannot provide you with any assurance that the trading price of the Class B shares and ADSs will be correlated with the trading price of the Class A shares in the future.

Holders of our ADSs in the United States may not be able to participate in offerings of rights, warrants or similar securities to holders of our ordinary shares on the same terms and conditions as holders of our ordinary shares

        In the event that we offer rights, warrants or similar securities to the holders of our ordinary shares or distribute dividends payable, in whole or in part, in securities, the Deposit Agreement provides that the depositary (after consultation with us) shall have discretion as to the procedure to be followed in making such rights or other securities available to ADS holders including disposing of such rights or other securities and distributing the net proceeds in U.S. dollars to ADS holders. We generally would be required to register with the SEC any public offering of rights, warrants or other securities made to our ADS holders unless an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. securities laws is available. Registering such an offering with the SEC can be a lengthy process which may be inconsistent with the timetable for a global capital raising operation. Consequently, we may in the future elect not to make such an offer in the United States, including to our ADS holders in the United States and rather only conduct such an offering in an "offshore" transaction in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act, as amended. Therefore, there can be no assurance that our ADS holders will be able to participate in such an offering in the same manner as our ordinary shareholders. In such event, the percentage ownership interest and voting power of the Class B shareholders would decline relative to the percentage ownership interest and voting power of the Class A shareholders and, in particular, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A.

There may not be a public market for our ADSs and Class B shares and the price of the ADSs and Class B shares may fluctuate significantly

        There is currently subject to official notice of issuance, no public market for our ADSs. While we have been approved to list our ADSs on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, an active or liquid public market for our ADSs may not develop or be sustained. If an active trading market is not developed and maintained, the liquidity and market price of our ADSs could be negatively affected.

The liquidity and market price of our Class B shares could be materially adversely affected as a result of their exclusion from the IBEX 35

        The IBEX 35 is the benchmark stock market index of the Bolsa de Madrid, Spain's principal stock exchange. The index is a market capitalization weighted index comprised of the 35 most liquid stocks in such stock exchange. The composition of the IBEX 35 is reviewed twice annually (in June and December) by Sociedad de Bolsas, S.A. At each review, the 35 listed companies with the highest trading volume over the previous six months are chosen for inclusion in the IBEX 35, provided that the average free float market capitalization of the stock is at least 0.3% of the total market capitalization of the index. Any candidate stock must also have either been traded on at least a third of all trading days in the previous six months, or rank in the top 20 overall in market capitalization. In the event that a candidate stock does not comply with those rules during the relevant review period, that candidate stock is no longer eligible for inclusion in the IBEX 35. If any changes to the composition of the IBEX 35 are made, they take effect on the first trading day of July or January.

        Our Class B shares were one of the 35 stocks that comprise the IBEX 35 since their initial admission to listing on October 24, 2012. After its meeting on June 12, 2013, however, the Technical Advisory Committee of Sociedad de Bolsas, S.A. notified us of the exclusion of our Class B shares from the IBEX 35 index with effective date of July 1, 2013. Some mutual funds and investors hold and trade securities as a result of their inclusion in the IBEX 35. The liquidity and market price of our Class B shares could be materially adversely affected as a result of the exclusion of our Class B shares from the IBEX 35.

As a "foreign private issuer" in the United States, we are exempt from certain rules under the U.S. securities laws and are permitted to file less information with the SEC than U.S. companies

        As a "foreign private issuer," we are exempt from certain rules under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), that impose certain disclosure obligations and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Exchange Act. In addition, our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and "short-swing" profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of our ordinary shares and ADSs. Moreover, we are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information. Although we must comply with Spanish listing rules on insider reporting of share ownership and on protection of inside information, there may be less publicly available information concerning us than there is for U.S. public companies.

Judgments of U.S. courts may not be enforceable against us

        Judgment of U.S. courts, including those predicated on the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the U.S. may not be enforceable in courts in Spain. As a result, our shareholders who obtain a judgment against us in the U.S. may not be able to require us to pay the amount of the judgment.

There are limitations on enforceability of civil liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws

        We are a Spanish company. Most of our officers and directors are residents of Spain and not the United States. It may be difficult or impossible to serve legal process on persons located outside the United States and to force them to appear in a U.S. court. It may also be difficult or impossible to enforce a judgment of a U.S. court against persons outside the United States, or to enforce a judgment of a foreign court against such persons in the United States. We believe that there may be doubt as to the enforceability against persons in Spain, whether in original actions or in actions for the enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, of civil liabilities predicated solely upon the laws of the United States, including its federal securities laws. Because we are a foreign private issuer, our directors and officers will not be subject to rules under the Exchange Act that under certain circumstances would require directors and officers to forfeit to us any "short-swing" profits realized from purchases and sales, as determined under the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder, of our equity securities. However, under Spanish listing rules, our directors must not deal in any of our securities on considerations of a short-term nature.

        Individual shareholders of a Spanish company (including U.S. persons) have the right under Spanish law to bring lawsuits on behalf of the company in which they are a shareholder, and on their own behalf against the company, in certain limited circumstances. Spanish law does not permit class action lawsuits by shareholders, except in limited circumstances.

Future sales of the Class B shares and/or the ADSs and/or equity related securities in the public market could adversely affect the trading price of the Class B shares and the ADSs and our ability to raise funds in new stock offerings

        Future sales of substantial amounts of the Class B shares and/or the ADSs and/or equity-related securities in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing trading prices of the Class B shares and the ADSs and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or equity-related securities. No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of the Class B shares and/or the ADSs or the availability of the Class B shares and/or the ADSs and/or equity related securities for future sale will have on the trading price of the Class B shares and the ADSs.

Table of Contents

        We, our controlling shareholders, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. and its wholly owned subsidiary Finarpisa, S.A., our officers and all but one of our directors listed in the "Management" section, have agreed to certain limitations on the ability to dispose of or hedge any of our Class A shares, Class B shares or ADSs, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for our Class A shares, Class B shares or ADSs, for a period of time commencing on the date of this prospectus. One of our major shareholders, First Reserve, and the director appointed by First Reserve have not entered into lock-up agreements with the underwriters and are therefore not prohibited by the underwriting arrangements for the offering from selling Class A shares, Class B shares or ADSs from time to time, to the extent permitted by applicable law (see "Underwriting"). Future sales of substantial amounts of the Class B shares and/or the ADSs and/or equity-related securities in the public market by First Reserve or the perception that such sales could occur, could further adversely affect prevailing trading prices of the Class B shares and the ADSs and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or equity-related securities.

        The price of the Class B shares and the ADSs could be depressed by investors' anticipation of the potential sale in the market of substantial additional amounts of Class B shares and ADSs. Disposals of the Class B shares and/or the ADSs would increase their offer in the market and depress their price.

The trading market for securities such as the Class B shares and the ADSs may be volatile and may be adversely impacted by many events

        The market for securities issued by issuers such as us, such as the Class B shares and the ADSs, is influenced by economic and market conditions and, to varying degrees, market conditions, interest rates, currency exchange rates and inflation rates in other European and other industrialized countries. There can be no assurance that events in Spain, Europe, the United States or elsewhere will not cause market volatility or that such volatility will not adversely affect the price of the Class B shares or the ADSs or that economic and market conditions will not have any other adverse effect. Fluctuations in interest rates may give rise to arbitrage opportunities based upon changes in the relative value of the Class B shares or the ADSs. Any trading by arbitrageurs could, in turn, affect the trading prices of the Class B shares or ADSs.

USE OF PROCEEDS

        We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the offering, after deducting underwriting fees and commissions will be approximately €385 million, or €443 million if the underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full, assuming an initial offering price of €2.19, which is calculated based on the closing price of the Class B shares as of October 3, 2013.

        A €0.10 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of €2.19 per Class B share would increase (decrease) the net proceeds from the offering by €17.59 million, after deducting underwriting fees, commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us and assuming no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and no other change to the number of Class B shares offered (including in the form of ADSs) as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus.

        The main purposes for the offering are our intentions to repay corporate debt maturities, strengthen our balance sheet, improve our capital structure and increase our financial flexibility.

        We intend to repay some of our corporate debt maturities due in 2013 and 2014 totaling approximately €323 million including: the first installment due under the Official Credit Institute Loan (€50 million); the entirety of the EIB R&D&i 2007 Credit Facility and the EIB 2007 Credit Facility (€109 million); installments due under the Swedish Export Buyer Credit Agreement and the Second Swedish Credit Agreement (€127 million); and certain corporate loans of some of our subsidiaries (€37 million). These corporate debt maturities carry interest costs of Euribor plus all-in margins ranging between 0.643% and 4.75% (the facilities identified in the previous sentence are described in more detail in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources — Financing Arrangements — Corporate Debt"). We expect the repayments to occur gradually during 2013 (approximately €47 million) and 2014 (approximately €276 million). The specific timing and amounts of these repayments will depend in part on the amount of net proceeds to us from the offering.

        We intend to deposit the remaining proceeds in cash and cash equivalents in order to reinforce our liquidity position and strengthen our balance sheet.

        We do not currently have any agreements or understandings to make any acquisition of other businesses. To the extent that the net proceeds we receive from the offering are not immediately applied for the above purposes, we intend to invest our net proceeds in interest-bearing bank deposits that may be withdrawn upon demand.

        The foregoing represents our current intentions with respect to the use and allocation of the net proceeds of the offering based upon our present plans and business conditions, but our management will have significant flexibility and discretion in applying a significant portion of the net proceeds of the offering.

        In the last twelve months we have issued, at the corporate level, €400 million of 2019 Convertible Notes and €250 million of Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018. On October 3, 2013, our subsidiary Abengoa Finance, S.A.U. issued €250 million of Additional Notes. The net proceeds from the 2019 Convertible Notes were used in part to repurchase for cash €99.9 million in principal amount of the 2014 Convertible Notes for consideration of approximately €108 million, to repay €207 million of the 2010 Forward Start Facility which matured in July 2013, to repay €22 million of bank corporate debt in the first half of 2013, and the remainder will be used to repay other short-term corporate debt maturing throughout 2013, as deemed necessary. The net proceeds from the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 will be used to repay maturities of €200 million on the 2012 Forward Start Facility in 2014 and 2015, and the remainder to repay other existing corporate debt of different subsidiaries, as deemed necessary. We expect to use the entire amount of the net proceeds of the Additional Notes of €247 million to prepay maturities on the 2012 Forward Start Facility due in 2014. Proceeds from all of these issuances will remain in cash and equivalents until used. The interest rates of the repaid maturities range from 3.6% to 15%.

        There have been no other increases in corporate indebtedness in the last twelve months. Additional non-recourse indebtedness has been incurred at the non-recourse level, the proceeds of which have gone entirely to finance the related projects.

DIVIDEND POLICY

        Our dividend policy is subject to our performance and financial condition, our investment and capital expenditure requirements, possible future acquisitions, expected future results of operations, cash flows, terms of our indebtedness and other factors. The terms and conditions of our indebtedness impose certain restrictions regarding distribution of dividends. Furthermore, certain of the assets of certain of our subsidiaries are restricted and additional financial information regarding our consolidated subsidiaries is included as Appendix XXII to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements given the extent of our restricted net assets.

        On February 21, 2013, our Board of Directors proposed a dividend of €0.072 per share, which represents a payout ratio of 70%, which is calculated as the total amount distributed as a dividend divided by the profit for the year attributable to the parent company for the year 2012. The dividend was approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting held on April 7, 2013, and was distributed in one gross payment on April 9, 2013.

        In 2012, during the General Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting held on April 1 a dividend in respect of the year ended December 31, 2011 of €0.07 per share, taking into account the increase in our Class B share capital as a result of our Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting, was approved. Part of the dividend (€0.03 per share) was paid on April 11, 2012 and the remaining part (€0.04 per share) was paid on July 4, 2012. This distribution represented a dividend payout ratio of 10%, which was calculated as the total amount distributed as a dividend divided by the profit for the year attributable to the parent company for the year 2011, and amounted to a total dividend of €37.7 million.

        The dividend protection clause existing in our outstanding convertible bonds permits us, with respect to the dividends that may be paid in respect of each fiscal year through the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, to increase the dividend per share paid in respect of each such year by €0.002 per share over the prior year, without triggering any adjustment to the conversion price.

We have prepared the information presented in the "as adjusted" and "as further adjusted" columns for illustrative purposes only. Information presented in the "as adjusted" column gives effect to the application of the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes and the issuance of the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018, and the issuance of the Additional Notes and the application of the proceeds therefrom (see "Use of Proceeds"). The proceeds of the Additional Notes will be used to prepay maturities on the 2012 Forward Start Facility due in 2014, by no later than the next interest payment date on such facility, which is January 22, 2014 (see "Use of Proceeds"). Information presented in the "as further adjusted" column gives effect to this offering and the application of the net proceeds therefrom (see "Use of Proceeds"). As such, the information presented in the "as adjusted" and "as further adjusted" columns addresses pro forma situations and, therefore, does not represent our actual financial position

    or results. Consequently, such information may not be indicative of our total capitalization as of the date of this prospectus. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this pro forma information.

(2)
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank deposits and other short-term investments which are highly liquid in nature with an original term of three months or less.

(3)
Short-term financial investments primarily constitute short-term fixed income securities as well as any shares of companies listed on any stock exchange. In most of our corporate indebtedness, our leverage ratio is based on net indebtedness which offsets short-term financial investments as well as cash and cash equivalents against gross corporate indebtedness.

(4)
A €0.10 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of €2.19 per Class B share would decrease or increase our "as further adjusted" total Net Corporate Debt by €17.59 million, after deducting underwriting fees, commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us and assuming no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and no change to the number of Class B shares offered (including in the form of ADSs) as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. A 1,000,000 share increase (decrease) in the number of Class B shares offered (including in the form of ADSs) in the offering would decrease or increase our "as further adjusted" total Net Corporate Debt by €2.11 million, after deducting underwriting fees, commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us and assuming no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and no change to the assumed initial public offering price of the Class B shares as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus.

DILUTION

        Our pro forma consolidated net tangible book value as of June 30, 2013 was €(5,701) million, or €(10.59) per share (either per Class A share or per Class B share). Pro forma consolidated net tangible book value per share represents pro forma consolidated tangible assets (which excludes goodwill and other intangibles from pro forma consolidated assets), less pro forma consolidated liabilities, divided by the aggregate number of shares outstanding. See "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information" for further information.

        Following the sale by us of Class B shares (including in the form of ADSs) in the offering at an assumed initial public offering price of €2.19 per share (being the closing price of our Class B shares set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) and the receipt of the net proceeds of €385 million, and assuming no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and after deducting the underwriting fees and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma consolidated net tangible book value at June 30, 2013, as adjusted, would have been €(7.38) per Class B share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma consolidated net tangible book value to existing stockholders of €3.21 per share and an immediate dilution to new investors of €(9.57) per Class B share. Dilution per Class B share represents the difference between the price per share to be paid by new investors for the Class B shares sold in the offering and the pro forma consolidated net tangible book value per Class B share immediately after the offering of the Class B shares. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

        A €0.10 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of €2.19 per Class B share (being the closing price of our Class B shares set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), would increase (decrease) our pro forma consolidated net tangible book value, as adjusted for the offering, by €17.59 million and the dilution per Class B share to new investors by €0.02, in each case assuming the number of shares offered, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remain the same, no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and after deducting the underwriting fees and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. A 1,000,000 share increase (decrease) in the number of Class B shares offered (including in the form of ADSs) in the offering would increase (decrease) our pro forma net tangible book value, as adjusted for this offering, by €2.11 million and the dilution per Class B share to new investors by €0.01, in each case assuming no change to the assumed initial public offering price of the Class B shares offered as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and after deducting underwriting fees, commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us. The adjusted information discussed above is illustrative only. Our adjusted net tangible book value following the completion of this offering is subject to adjustments based on the actual initial public offering price of the Class B shares, the number of Class B shares sold in the offering and other terms of the offering determined at pricing.

        The following table sets forth the number of Class B shares (as applicable) purchased, the total consideration paid, or to be paid to us, and the average price per share paid, or to be paid, by existing stockholders and by the new investors, at an assumed initial public offering price of €2.19 per Class B share

A 1,000,000 share increase (decrease) in the number of Class B shares offered (including in the form of ADSs) in the offering would increase (decrease) total consideration paid by new Class B investors by €2.19 million, total consideration paid by all stockholders by €2.19 million and the average price per share paid by all stockholders by €0.001, in each case assuming no change to the assumed initial public offering price of the Class B shares offered as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and after deducting underwriting fees, commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us.

Supplemental Dilution Information

        For purposes of the calculation of pro forma consolidated net tangible book value and pro forma consolidated net tangible book value per share set forth above, we have excluded goodwill and other intangibles, including service concession agreements. For the reasons set forth below, we believe that it is useful for investors that we present supplemental dilution information that does not exclude service concession agreements from the calculation of pro forma consolidated net tangible book value and pro forma consolidated net tangible book value per share. We refer to these measures calculated to include service concession agreements as supplemental pro forma consolidated net tangible book value and supplemental pro forma consolidated net tangible book value per share.

        Service concession agreements are accounted for as intangible assets in accordance with IFRIC 12, representing the right to future cash flows under existing concession arrangements, for a net amount of €6,086 million as of June 30, 2013, for which construction has been financed through non-recourse loans and which are linked to the financing of fixed assets in projects.

        Management believes that it is appropriate to include service concession agreements in the calculation of pro forma consolidated net tangible book value and pro forma consolidated net tangible book value per share because the recovery of the book value of such assets is not subject to significant uncertainty or illiquidity and our historical experience has been that these assets may be sold separately from other assets of the business.

60


Table of Contents

        In order to sell intangible assets representing the rights to cash flows under existing concession arrangements, we must obtain approval of the public entity counterparty. We have been successful in obtaining these approvals when we have requested them.

        We actively pursue an asset rotation strategy with respect to the investments and projects included in our Concession-Type Infrastructures segment. It is part of our strategy to unlock value through asset rotations, when we think that conditions are appropriate, in order to increase equity returns. We have a successful track record of monetizing these investments:

    in the fourth quarter of 2010, we completed the sale of our 25% interest in two power transmission lines in Brazil that resulted in €102 million of cash proceeds;

    in the third quarter of 2011, we completed the Telvent Disposal, which generated cash proceeds of €391 million;

    in the fourth quarter of 2011, we executed the First Cemig Sale which resulted in the equivalent of €479 million of net cash proceeds in Brazilian reais;

    in the second quarter of 2012, we closed the Second Cemig Sale which resulted in the equivalent of €354 million of net cash proceeds in Brazilian reais;

    in the second quarter of 2013, we closed the sale of Bargoa, for a total sales price of $80 million, which resulted in approximately $50 million of cash proceeds; and

    in the second quarter of 2013, we entered into a share purchase agreement for the sale of 100% of our shares in our subsidiary, Befesa, which specializes in the integral management of industrial waste, to funds advised by Triton Partners. On July 15, 2013, we received €331 million in cash proceeds corresponding to the agreed price for the shares (and deferred compensation and other compensation totaling €289 million) and the sale transaction was closed.

We intend to continue to actively follow an asset rotation strategy whereby we periodically sell assets or businesses in order to seek to optimize investment returns and free up capital for new investments or debt reduction. We intend to follow an opportunistic approach, whereby we consider to sell assets or businesses when we deem market conditions are attractive to us. Sales of assets or businesses may be material and may happen at any time.

        Had consolidated pro forma net tangible book value and pro forma consolidated net tangible book value per share been calculated so as to include service concession agreements in such calculations, supplemental pro forma consolidated net tangible book value as of June 30, 2013 would have been €385 million, or €0.72 per Class B share. Furthermore, following the sale by us of Class B shares (including in the form of ADSs) in the offering at an assumed initial public offering price of €2.19 per share (being the closing price of our Class B shares set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) and the receipt of the net proceeds of €385 million, assuming no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, supplemental pro forma consolidated net tangible book value at June 30, 2013, as adjusted, would have been €1.06 per Class B share. This would have represented an immediate increase in supplemental pro forma consolidated net tangible book value to existing stockholders of €0.35 per share and an immediate dilution to new investors of €1.13 per share. Dilution per share represents the difference between the price per share to be paid by new investors for the Class B shares sold in the offering and supplemental consolidated net tangible book value

A 1,000,000 share increase (decrease) in the number of Class B shares offered (including in the form of ADSs) in the offering would increase (decrease) our supplemental pro forma consolidated net tangible book value, as adjusted for this offering, by €2.11 million and the dilution per Class B share to new investors by €0.001, in each case assuming no change to the assumed initial public offering price of the Class B shares offered as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and after deducting underwriting fees, commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us. Our adjusted net tangible book value following the completion of this offering is subject to adjustments based on the actual initial public offering price of the Class B shares, the number of Class B shares sold in the offering and other terms of the offering determined at pricing.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial Information sets forth the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2012 and for the six month period ended June 30, 2013, as well as the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as of June 30, 2013, which has been derived from, and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 and with our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, included elsewhere in this prospectus.

        We have included the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information to illustrate, on a pro forma basis:

    (a)
    The impact on our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 of the Second Cemig Sale. Prior to this sale, in November 2011, we sold 100% of our shareholding of NTE and 50% of our shareholding of UNISA to Transmissao Alianca De Energia Electrica S.A. ("TAESA"), an affiliate of Cemig.

      The Second Cemig Sale has no impact in the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of financial position as of June 30, 2013 or in the consolidated condensed income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2013 because the historical financial information at that date already reflects the impact of the Second Cemig Sale.

    (b)
    The impact on our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 of the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes, the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 in January and February, 2013, respectively.

      In order to prepare the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012, we have assumed that the net proceeds from the 2019 Convertible Notes were used in part to repurchase €99.9 million in principal amount of the 2014 Convertible Notes and the remainder was used to repay €207 million of the 2010 Forward Start Facility maturing in July 2013, to repay €22 million of bank corporate debt in the first half of 2013, and the remainder will be used to repay other short-term corporate debt maturing throughout 2013. We have further assumed that the net proceeds from the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 will be used to repay maturities of €200 million on the 2012 Forward Start Facility in 2014, and the remainder to repay other existing corporate debt of different subsidiaries.

      The issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes and the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 has no significant impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, because the historical financial information as of that date already reflects almost six months and five months of the impact of the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes and the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 since the issue date in January and February, 2013, respectively.

    (c)
    The impact on our condensed consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 of the Additional Notes issued on October 3, 2013.

      In order to prepare the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, we have assumed that the net proceeds from the Additional Notes will be used to repay maturities of €247 million on the 2012 Forward Start Facility due 2014.

        The events described above are herein referred to the "Transactions" and are described in more detail in Note 2 to this "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information".

Table of Contents

        The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 is presented only through "Profit for the year from continuing operations" and includes specific adjustments related to the Transactions.

        The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and reflects estimates and certain assumptions made by the Company's management that are considered reasonable by it under the circumstances as of the date of this prospectus and which are based on the information available at the time of the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information. Actual adjustments may differ materially from the information presented herein. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information does not purport to represent what the Company's income statement and consolidated statement of financial position would have been if the Transactions had occurred on the dates indicated and is not intended to project the Company's consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position for any future period or date.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

1.     Basis of Preparation

        The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. In preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information we have taken into consideration the accounting policies applied to prepare our historical consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, included elsewhere in this prospectus.

        The unaudited pro forma adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information give effect to events directly attributable to the Transactions and are factually supportable. The adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement are expected to have a continuing impact. The adjustment to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of financial position has been included regardless of whether it has a continuing impact or is non-recurring.

        Material non-recurring profits and losses that result directly from the Transactions have not been included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement. The gain directly attributable to the Second Cemig Sale that closed on June 30, 2012 is reflected in our historical consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012. This gain is presented as pro forma adjustments and is excluded from the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012.

        We have assumed that the Transactions have been completed on:

    January 1, 2012 for the purpose of presenting the unaudited pro forma condensed income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 in connection with the Second Cemig Sale and the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes, the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 and the Additional Notes.

    January 1, 2013 for the purpose of presenting the unaudited pro forma condensed income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2013 in connection with the Additional Notes.

    June 30, 2013 for the purpose of presenting the unaudited condensed statement of financial position as of June 30, 2013 in connection with the Additional Notes.

        In relation to the pro forma adjustments described in Notes 4 and 5 below, the difference between historical and pro forma effective tax rates is due to the fact that the sale of our remaining 50% interest in UNISA under the Second Cemig Sale corresponds to entities that generated profit and recognized tax expense at the nominal rate in Brazil, which contributed to a lower income tax benefit on a consolidated basis in the historical financial statements. The pro forma adjustments result in a decrease of the profit for the year and an increase of the tax benefit, which explains the fluctuation of the effective tax rates.

2.     Description of the Transactions

The Second Cemig Sale

        On March 16, 2012, Abengoa Concessoes Brasil Holding S.A. ("Abengoa Concessoes") entered into an agreement with Transmissao Aliança de Energia Electrica S.A. ("TAESA"), an affiliate of Cemig, to sell the remaining 50% of its shareholding in an entity, named Uniao de Transmissoras de Energia Eléctrica Holding S.A. ("UNISA"), to which Abengoa Concessoes contributed 50% of its interests in four project companies that hold power transmission line concessions in Brazil. These four project companies are STE—Sul Transmissora de Energia S.A., ATE Transmissora de Energia S.A., ATE II Transmissora de Energia S.A. and ATE III Transmissora de Energia S.A. The Second Cemig Sale closed on June 30, 2012, and we received proceeds for €354 million on July 2, 2012. The gain from the Second Cemig Sale of €4.5 million is reflected in the "Other operating income" line item in our historical consolidated condensed income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012.

70


Table of Contents

        The transaction includes a post-closing price adjustment mechanism that will involve a limited review of the financial statements of UNISA taking into account, among other variables, changes in the share capital thereof and any dividends or distributions made between signing and closing. We do not expect any significant adjustment to the price to be payable.

        Our historical consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 includes our 50% share in the profits and losses of UNISA for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 up to the date of the sale, following the equity method.

The issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes and the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018

        On January 17, 2013, we issued €400 million of 2019 Convertible Notes and used the net proceeds to repurchase €99.9 million in principal amount of our 2014 Convertible Notes for a consideration of approximately €108 million, to repay €215 million of syndicated bank debt including accrued interest maturing in 2013, €22 million of bank corporate debt in the first half of 2013, and the remainder will be used to repay other short-term corporate debt, thereby extending the maturity profile of our corporate debt.

        On February 5, 2013, our subsidiary Abengoa Finance, S.A.U., issued €250 million of Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 unconditionally guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries. We expect to use such funds to pre-pay €200 million of our syndicated bank debt and the remainder to repay other corporate bank facilities, thereby extending the maturity profile of our corporate debt.

The issuance of the Additional Notes

        On October 3, 2013, our subsidiary Abengoa Finance, S.A.U., issued €250 million principal amount of additional notes (the "Additional Notes") that constitute a further issuance of, and form single series with, the outstanding existing notes due in 2018 issued in February 2013. The Additional Notes are unconditionally guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries. We expect to use such funds to pre-pay part of our 2012 Forward Start Facility no later than the net interest payment date on such facility, which is January 22, 2014, thereby extending the maturity profile of our corporate debt.

3.     Historical Abengoa, S.A. Consolidated

        This column is derived from the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. Historical financial information has been recasted (see "Presentation of Financial Information" and Note 2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements).

4.     Pro forma adjustments for the Second Cemig Sale for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012

        This pro forma adjustment for the Second Cemig Sale to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 is necessary to reflect our results of operations, excluding the remaining 50% of the operations of UNISA and this adjustment reflect the impact on share of (loss)/profit of associates.

5.     Pro forma adjustments for the Gain from the Second Cemig Sale for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012

        This pro forma adjustment reflects the elimination of the non-recurring gain of €4.5 million directly attributable to the Second Cemig Sale which is reflected in our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements in the line item "Other operating income".

        Pro forma adjustments for the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes and the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 and the Additional Notes for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement are necessary to reflect the net impact in finance expenses amounting to €23.8 million due to the increase in finance expenses as a consequence of the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes and the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 (€73.5 million) and the decrease in finance expenses due to the repayment of corporate financing (€49.7 million).

        The calculation for the impact in finance expenses is shown below:

7.     Pro forma adjustment for the issuance of Additional Notes for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement for the six month period ended June 30, 2013

        Pro forma adjustment for the issuance of Additional Notes for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statement are necessary to reflect the net impact in finance expenses to €6.5 million due to the increase in finance expenses as a consequence of the issuance of the Additional Notes (€11.0 million) and the decrease in finance expenses due to the repayment of corporate financing (€4.5 million).

8.     Pro forma adjustment for the issuance of Additional Notes for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of June 30, 2013

        These pro forma adjustments reflect the repayment of debt with the proceeds of the issuance of the Additional Notes if this issuance had occurred as of June 30, 2013. The adjustments reflect the increase in corporate financing (non-current) of €247.1 million (net transaction costs) due to the Additional Notes issued on October 3, 2013 and the decrease in corporate financing (non-current) of €247.1 million for the repayment of €247.1 million on the 2012 Forward Start Facility.

SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        The following tables present selected consolidated financial and business level information for Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 and as of and for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008.

        The selected financial information as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 and as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is derived from, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, which are included elsewhere in this prospectus. The selected financial information as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 set forth below has been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, using as a basis our Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU for those years, which are not included herein. There are no differences, applicable to the Company, between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as adopted by the EU for any of the periods presented. As disclosed in "Presentation of Financial Information", financial information as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 has been recasted in order to enhance the comparability of our financial disclosures for those years with 2013 and subsequent periods, to give effect to the facts described below. We have also recasted our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 included elsewhere in this prospectus, as well as the consolidated financial information for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 included in our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, which are also included elsewhere in this prospectus.

    IFRS 10 and 11

      In preparing the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group applied IFRS 10 and 11 that came into effect on January 1, 2013 under IFRS-IASB. The main impacts of the application of the new standards relate to the de-consolidation of companies that do not fulfill the conditions of effective control during the construction phase, now recorded under the equity method, and to the elimination of the proportional consolidation of the joint ventures, with the equity method being obligatory for recording its interest in the company. According to the terms and requirements established in IAS 8 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors" and to the specific transition guidance of the new standards, we have recasted the financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012. Financial information for prior periods has not been recasted for IFRS 10 and 11 and consequently is not comparable with other periods presented (see "Presentation of Financial Information", Note 2 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements).

    Befesa Sale

      On June 13, 2013 we entered into a share purchase agreement for the sale of 100% of our shares in our subsidiary Befesa. At the end of the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 all the conditions necessary to close the transaction were fulfilled, including the required approvals from the competition authorities. Accordingly, we have recorded the sale as of June 30, 2013, derecognizing the assets and liabilities of this shareholding and recognizing a gain of €0.4 million. On July 15, 2013, we received €331 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the price agreed for the shares and the sale of the transaction was definitely closed. We have used the proceeds from the Befesa Sale to replace expiring working capital facilities and to increase our flexibility to manage seasonal fluctuations in our working capital. Taking into account the significance of the activities carried out by Befesa to Abengoa, the sale of this shareholding is considered as a discontinued operation to in accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations." In accordance with this standard, the results of Befesa until the closing of the sale and the result of this sale are included under a single heading (profit for the year from discontinued operations, net of tax)

Likewise, the consolidated income statement for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 also includes the results of Befesa under a single heading (see "Presentation of Financial Information," Note 7 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes 2 and 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements). The Befesa Sale also resulted in the removal of the Industrial Recyclin of segment from our Industrial Production activity.

    IFRIC 12—Service concession arrangements

      IFRIC 12 "Service Concession Arrangements" became mandatory for annual periods commencing on or after January 1, 2008 and we began to apply it on that date, with the exception of thermo-solar assets in Spain.

      During 2009, 2010 and 2011, the Spanish government issued several laws and resolutions that regulate the market for renewable energy in Spain in general and thermo-solar activities in particular. Due to the legal uncertainty created during this period, we determined that our thermo-solar assets were not within the scope of IFRIC 12 until early 2011, when we received a set of individual rulings from the Spanish Ministry of Industry for each of our thermosolar assets. We originally concluded that through such rulings we were required to apply IFRIC 12 prospectively, from September 1, 2011, to our thermo-solar plants in Spain registered in the Pre-Allocation Registry. Upon prospective application of IFRIC 12, we reclassified the solar-thermal plant assets from "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" to "Intangible Assets in Projects" and, in accordance with IAS 11, the total contract revenue for the construction of the plants (including amounts previously eliminated in consolidation) began to be recognized from September 1, 2011 based on the percentage of completion method, up to the finalization of the plants. This treatment deferred recognition of the costs, margins and revenues generated up to that date and previously eliminated in consolidation prospectively, pro rata, over the term of the remaining construction period.

      During the year 2013, in connection with the review by the Staff of the SEC of the Registration Statement of which this prospectus is a part, we re-evaluated the assumptions made in 2011 which led to the application of the accounting policy for thermo-solar plants in Spain described above. On June 30, 2013, we decided, based on the provisions of IAS 8.14, to apply an alternative acceptable accounting treatment which would better reflect the reliability and comparability of financial information, consisting of the revision of the method in which we applied IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar assets in Spain already constructed or under construction upon application of IFRIC 12 and of the revision of the date on which IFRIC 12 was applied to our thermo-solar assets in Spain (January 1, 2011 instead of September 1, 2011). The revised accounting treatment consisted in applying IFRIC 12 prospectively, from January 1, 2011 by derecognizing, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, our thermosolar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognizing those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects". The difference of €165 million has been recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment in "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. From January 1, 2011, only the remaining contract revenue, costs and margins generated after such date for the ongoing construction of the plants began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11. In addition, the revenue and operating profit that was previously deferred upon original adoption of IFRIC 12 and recognized prospectively during fiscal years 2011 and 2012 has been eliminated. The change in application date resulted in the recognition of revenues and costs associated with the construction activities that occurred between January 1, 2011 and September 1, 2011, that were previously eliminated. In accordance with the terms and requirements of IAS 8 for Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, we applied this change in accounting policy by recasting the 2012 and 2011 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. The consolidated income statement and statement of financial position within our Annual Consolidated

Amounts recasted to reflect retrospective application of IFRS 10 and 11 (see Note 2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 2 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements).

Amounts recasted to reflect the results of Befesa under a single heading in the consolidated income statement and under separate line items in the consolidated cash-flow statements (see Note 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 7 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements).

As of December 31, 2010 and during part of the year 2011, we held a 40% shareholding in Telvent. Despite partially reducing our share ownership in Telvent during 2009, we remained the largest shareholder and our 40% shareholding, along with our control of certain treasury shares held by Telvent, permitted us to exercise de facto control over Telvent. Therefore Telvent's financial information was fully consolidated with our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period of 2011 in which we held control over Telvent. On June 1, 2011, we announced the sale of our investment in Telvent to Schneider Electric S.A. ("SE") and on September 5, 2011 the transaction was completed. As a result and taking into account the significance of Telvent to us, Telvent was treated as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations". The results obtained from this sale are included under a single heading in the consolidated income statement and under separate line items in the consolidated cash flow statement for the year 2011 and the consolidated income statement for 2010 has been recasted to present Telvent as discontinued operations. Information presented above for the year ended December 31, 2009 has also been recasted to present Telvent as discontinued operations. In our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, Telvent was classified as discontinued operations due to a first intent to sell Telvent that did not finally materialize in that moment, thus financial information for the year ended December 31, 2008 has been obtained directly from our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008. For further information regarding the divestment of Telvent, see Note 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein.

Number of shares considered in all periods is after the increase in Class B shares distributed for no consideration approved by the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting on September 30, 2012 and considered effective on October 2, 2012 as described in "Principal Shareholders—Major Shareholders" and Note 32 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

(6)
Dividends paid per share have been calculated considering the post-split number of shares, restating prior periods in order to be consistent with the earnings per share calculation. Dividends paid in 2012 (in two payments in July and April, respectively), 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were €0.070 per share in the aggregate (U.S. $0.088), €0.040 per share (U.S. $0.054), €0.038 per share (U.S. $0.05), €0.036 per share (U.S. $0.054) and €0.034 per share (U.S. $0.044), respectively.

Consolidated EBITDA is calculated as profit for the year from continuing operations, after adding back income tax expense, share of (loss)/profit of associates, finance expense net and depreciation, amortization and impairment charges of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries. Consolidated EBITDA is not a measurement of performance under IFRS as issued by the IASB and you should not

    consider Consolidated EBITDA as an alternative to operating income or consolidated profits as a measure of our operating performance, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of our ability to meet our cash needs or any other measures of performance under generally accepted accounting principles. We believe that Consolidated EBITDA is a useful indicator of our ability to incur and service our indebtedness and can assist securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate us. Consolidated EBITDA and similar measures are used by different companies for different purposes and are often calculated in ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies. Consolidated EBITDA may not be indicative of our historical operating results, nor are meant to be predictive of potential future results.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Consolidated EBITDA, after adding back research and development costs of ABENGOA, S.A. and its subsidiaries. Research and development costs are added back because we consider these expenses as investments in our business that generate returns over the long-term. Corporate Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Consolidated EBITDA after adding back research and development costs of ABENGOA, S.A. and its subsidiaries less EBITDA from non-recourse activities net of eliminations. According to the terms and conditions of the 2012 Forward Start Facility, Adjusted EBITDA does not include the effect of changes in accounting policies resulting from IFRS 10 and 11 and change in the application of IFRIC 12. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of performance under IFRS as issued by the IASB, and you should not consider Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Corporate Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to operating income or consolidated profits as a measure of our operating performance, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of our ability to meet our cash needs or any other measures of performance under IFRS as issued by the IASB. We believe that Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA are useful indicators of our ability to incur and service our corporate indebtedness, since the leverage ratio in the instruments governing our corporate indebtedness is generally calculated as a ratio of Net Corporate Debt to Corporate Adjusted EBITDA, and can assist investors and other parties to evaluate us. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA, and similar measures, are used by different companies for different purposes and are often calculated in ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of our historical operating results nor are they meant to be predictive of potential future results.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        The following discussion should be read together with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, that are included elsewhere in this prospectus, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The following discussion contains forward looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs, which are based on assumptions we believe to be reasonable. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this prospectus, particularly in "Risk Factors" and "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

Overview

        We are a leading engineering and clean technology company with operations in more than 70 countries worldwide that provides innovative solutions for a diverse range of customers in the energy and environmental sectors. Over the course of our 70-year history, we have developed a unique and integrated business model that applies our accumulated engineering expertise to promoting sustainable development solutions, including delivering new methods for generating power from the sun, developing biofuels, producing potable water from seawater and efficiently transporting electricity. A cornerstone of our business model has been investment in proprietary technologies, particularly in areas with relatively high barriers to entry. Our Engineering and Construction activity provides sophisticated turnkey engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") services from design to implementation for infrastructure projects within the energy and environmental sectors and engages in other related activities with a high technology component. Our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity operates, manages and maintains infrastructure assets, usually pursuant to long-term concession agreements under Build, Own, Operate and Transfer ("BOOT") schemes, within four operating segments (Transmission, Solar, Water and Co-generation). Finally, our Industrial Production activity produces a variety of biofuels (ethanol and biodiesel). For the first half of the year 2013, our average number of employees was 27,417 people worldwide across our three business activities and, according to industry publications, we are among the market leaders in the majority of our areas of operation.

        In order to focus our attention on our key markets, we organized our business into three activities: Engineering and Construction, Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production. Each activity is further broken into the following reporting segments: Engineering and Construction and Technology and Other segments within the Engineering and Construction activity; Transmission, Solar, Water and Co-generation segments within the Concession-Type Infrastructures activity; and Biofuels within the Industrial Production activity. Previously, we organized our business according to five reporting segments: Engineering; Bioenergy; Information Technologies; Environmental Services; and Solar.

        In 2012, the segment Technology and Other has been reclassified from the activity Industrial Production to Engineering and Construction, which reflects better the nature of its operations. For comparability purposes, we have also reclassified information for 2011 and 2010 accordingly.

        Our three activities are focused in the energy and environmental industries, and integrate operations throughout the value chain, including R&D&i, project development, engineering and construction, and the operation and maintenance of our own assets and those of third parties. Our activities are organized to capitalize on our global presence and scale, as well as to leverage our engineering and technological expertise in order to strengthen our leadership positions.

        We have successfully grown our business, with a compound annual growth rate of our Consolidated EBITDA of 25% during the last ten years ended December 31, 2012. We have also maintained double-digit growth in our consolidated revenue and Consolidated EBITDA on a compound annual growth basis since our 1996 initial public offering on the Spanish Stock Exchanges. As of October 3, 2013, we had a market capitalization of approximately €1.2 billion. As of June 30, 2013, our backlog was €7,133 million.

Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Results of Operations

IFRS 10 and 11

        In preparing the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group applied IFRS 10 and 11 that came into effect on January 1, 2013 under IFRS-IASB.

        The main impacts of the application of the new standards IFRS 10 and 11, as well as the amendments to IAS 27 and 28, in relation to what was systematically applied previously, relate to:

    (i)
    The de-consolidation of companies that do not fulfill the conditions of effective control of the interest during the construction phase in terms of decision making for their integration in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements according to the equity method. It is expected that these projects will be fully consolidated again once they enter into operation and we gain control over them, with corresponding significant increases in fixed assets in projects (project finance) and long-term non-recourse project financing, among others.

    (ii)
    The elimination of the proportional consolidation of the joint ventures, with the equity method being obligatory for recording its interest in the company.

        According to the terms and requirements established in IAS 8 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors" and to the specific transition guidance of the new standards, we have recasted the financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 in order to make it comparable with the information at June 30, 2013. Financial information for prior periods has not been recasted, according to the transition guidance of the new standards, and consequently is not comparable with other periods presented (see "Presentation of Financial Information", Note 2 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements).

        The effect of the de-consolidation of the affected companies and their integration according to the equity method on the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2012 is shown below:

Application of IFRIC 12

        Service concession agreements are recorded in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 12. IFRIC 12 is applicable to public-to-private service concession arrangements where the grantor of the concession governs what services the operator must provide using the infrastructure, to whom and at what price and also controls any significant residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the term of the arrangement. When the operator of the infrastructure is also responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction of such asset, IFRIC 12 requires the separate accounting for the revenue and margins associated with the construction activities, which is not eliminated in consolidation even between companies within the same consolidated group, and for the subsequent operation and maintenance of the infrastructure. In such cases, the investment in the infrastructure used in the concession arrangement cannot be classified as property, plant and equipment of the operator, but rather must be classified as a financial asset or an intangible asset, depending on the nature of the payment rights established under the contract. The infrastructures accounted for by us as service concessions under IFRIC 12 are mainly related to the activities concerning power transmission lines, desalination plants and thermo-solar electricity generation plants outside of Spain and, with effect from January 1, 2011 (as explained below), in Spain.

        The analysis on whether IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities involves various complex factors and it is significantly affected by legal interpretation of certain contractual agreements or other terms and conditions with public sector entities. The application of IFRIC 12 requires extensive judgment in relation with, among other factors, (i) the identification of certain infrastructures and contractual agreements in the scope of IFRIC 12, (ii) the understanding of the nature of the payments in order to determine the classification of the infrastructure as a financial asset or as an intangible asset and (iii) the timing and recognition of the revenue from construction and concessionary activity.

        Thermo-solar electricity generation plants have been affected by numerous laws and regulation which have made difficult and very judgmental their consideration as concessionary assets. The following are the main laws, regulations or agreements with the government which have been considered as the most relevant to our analysis of the application of IFRIC 12 to its thermo-solar assets in Spain:

    the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007; which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers;

    Royal Decree-Law 6/2009 of April 30 ("RDL 6/2009"); which adopts certain measures in the energy sector, approves a subsidized rate, and creates a "Pre-Allocation Registry";

88


Table of Contents

    Individual rulings issued to us in January and March 2011, from the Spanish Ministry of Industry for each of our thermo-solar installations, confirming earliest commissioning dates, economic terms of the feed-in tariff/premium economic schemes and other issues related to the legal and economic regime of the plants; and

    Royal Decree 9-2013 of July 12, whereby the Government adopted urgent measures to ensure financial stability in the electrical system (see Note 33.9 "Subsequent events" to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus).

        As a result of IFRIC 12 on Service Concession Arrangements coming into effect on January 1, 2008 and in accordance with IAS 8 as established in paragraph 29 of the aforementioned IFRIC 12, we began to apply this interpretation retrospectively with no significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements as of that date, since it had already been applying a similar accounting policy to the interpretation concurrently and in anticipation of the changes for its concession-type assets, mainly related to the international concession business for electricity transmission and desalination, with the exception of its thermo-solar assets in Spain. The Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007, which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers in Spain, is a statutory legal regime that created a legal relationship between the Spanish government and the developers of the plants. This legal relationship is of a public/administrative law nature, meaning that it is a legal relationship that is not governed by the Spanish Civil Code or Spanish Commercial Code in any respect (which governs relationships among private parties). This legal relationship is not a bilateral relationship, meaning that it could be changed unilaterally by the Spanish government by way of introducing changes in the laws and regulations governing the statutory legal regime. For that reason, we concluded that these assets did not meet the characteristics of concessionary assets as defined under the Interpretation at the transition date.

        The introduction of RDL 6/2009, created a very high level of uncertainty as to whether our thermo-solar plants in Spain would be entitled to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system, as well as to the continued availability of benefits under the Special Regime remuneration system for the duration of the useful life of our Spanish thermo-solar plants. Registration in the new system of the Pre-Allocation Registry under RDL 6/2009 did not guarantee that all of the thermo-solar plants accepted into the Pre-Allocation Registry would be immediately granted the right to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system. Due to the legal uncertainty created during this period, in the second half of 2010 we determined to pursue a strategy to maximize legal certainty for purposes of finally and definitively establishing a legal and binding arrangement for the generation and sale of electricity on terms designed to ensure a reasonable level of return on its investment in Spanish thermo-solar plants and reducing the uncertainty introduced by the economic and political circumstances and the various regulatory changes that were being discussed. We implemented this strategy by applying for administrative rulings from the Ministry of Industry's General Directorate for Energy Policy and Mining. Our aim was to ensure that it had entered into a bilateral contractual relationship with the Spanish government on mutually binding terms and conditions that could not be amended unilaterally and that, in the case of default or breach by the Spanish government, would give us the recourse to bring claims based on the damages caused by such default or breach. The rulings do not guarantee that we will be successful in any claim brought by it against the Spanish government. However, if we had not obtained the rulings and only relied on the regulatory framework established by the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007 to participate in the Special Regime, a unilateral change by the Spanish government to that framework affecting all producers equally would have left the Company without legal recourse. These rulings therefore substantially reduced the uncertainty that contributed to our original conclusion that its Spanish thermo-solar plants were not within the scope of IFRIC 12.

        For the foregoing reasons, we did not consider the entry into the Pre-Allocation Registry to constitute the beginning of a service concession arrangement in accordance with the guidance in IFRIC 12 and only considered a service concession arrangement with the Spanish government within the scope of IFRIC 12 to come into existence upon the receipt of the administrative rulings in 2011, as it was through those rulings that the Spanish government confirmed, on an individual basis for each thermo-solar plant, the economic

Table of Contents

terms of the feed-in tariff and the commissioning dates for each asset, creating a bilateral contractual relationship and an obligation on our part to supply the services at the established terms. In this regard, in June 2013 we commenced a private-law action against the Spanish government for breach of contract based on the administrative ruling issued in respect of one of its thermo-solar plants. In that action we are seeking performance by the Spanish government in accordance with the terms of that administrative ruling or, in the alternative, money damages in an amount equivalent to the difference between the profit it would have obtained under the administrating ruling and the profit that we will obtain under the Spanish government's special-regime tariff. In addition, in June 2013 we also submitted a demand for arbitration against the Spanish government alleging that the Spanish government's regulatory reforms of the electricity sector have breached our legitimate expectations under the administrative rulings issued in respect of its thermo-solar facilities and constitute expropriation. Further, we are seeking compensation through money damages, in an amount yet to be determined. (see Note 33.9 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus).

        Furthermore, during the first eight months of 2011, in view of the complex regulatory and accounting issues raised by the application of IFRIC 12 to those assets, and as a result of a review conducted by our home country regulator, the CNMV, we decided to gather the opinions of legal and accounting experts on this topic to support its analysis and conclusions. After completing that analysis with the CNMV in August 2011, we concluded that its Spanish thermo-solar assets were required to be included in the scope of IFRIC 12. As such, and because the change was driven by a change in facts and circumstances, we originally began to apply IFRIC 12 to such assets prospectively from that date (September 1, 2011). As a result, from January 1, 2008 through September 1, 2011, we originally determined that these assets were not under the scope of IFRIC 12, and therefore such plants were accounted for in accordance with IAS 16 as "Property, Plant & Equipment in Projects" and classified under the "Fixed Assets in Projects" line item. Capitalized costs derived from the construction of the plants were recorded in "Other Operating Income—Work performed by the entity and capitalized and other". Once IFRIC 12 began to be applied to these assets on September 1, 2011, we reclassified its solar-thermal plant assets from "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" to "Intangible Assets in Projects" and, in accordance with IAS 11, the total contract revenue for the construction of the plants (including amounts previously eliminated in consolidation) began to be recognized from September 1, 2011 based on the "percentage of completion" method, up to the finalization of construction of the plants.

        During the year 2013, in connection with the SEC Staff's review of this Registration Statement, we have reconsidered the assumptions and conclusions made in 2011, which led to the application of the accounting policy for thermo-solar plants in Spain described above. As a result, on June 30, 2013, we decided, based on the provisions of IAS 8.14, to apply an alternative acceptable accounting treatment which would better reflect the reliability and comparability of financial information, consisting of the revision of the method in which it applied IFRIC 12 to its thermo-solar assets in Spain already constructed or under construction upon application of IFRIC 12 and of the revision of the date on which IFRIC 12 was applied to these assets (January 1, 2011 instead of September 1, 2011). The revised accounting treatment has consisted in applying IFRIC 12 prospectively from January 1, 2011 (as this was the date the administrative rulings were received) by derecognizing, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, our thermo-solar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognizing those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects". The difference of €165 million has been recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment on January 1, 2011 within "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. From January 1, 2011, only the remaining contract revenue, costs and margins generated after such date for the ongoing construction of the plants began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11. In addition, the revenue and operating profit that was previously deferred upon original adoption of IFRIC 12 and that was being recognized prospectively during fiscal years 2011 (from September 1, 2011) and 2012 have been eliminated. The change in application date also resulted in the recognition of revenues and costs associated with the construction activities that occurred between January 1, 2011 and September 1, 2011 that had been previously eliminated in consolidation. In accordance

90


Table of Contents

with the terms and requirements of IAS 8 for Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, we applied this change in accounting policy by recasting its 2012 and 2011 consolidated financial statements. Total recasted revenues and operating profits related to our thermo-solar activity in Spain amounted to €843 million and €234 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2011 (including the one-time gain of €165million recorded within "other operating income"), versus €649 million and €60 million, respectively, which had been recognized during this same period prior to the voluntary accounting change described above. The application of IFRIC 12 also resulted in an increase in intangible assets in projects of €1,808 million as of December 31, 2011.

        The consolidated income statement and statement of financial position within our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as well as the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information as presented elsewhere herein, have not been recasted to retrospectively apply IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar electricity generation plants in Spain for any period prior to January 1, 2011.

Acquisitions and Divestments

        As discussed in Note 6.2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, certain acquisitions and divestments impacted our scope of consolidation and, therefore, our results of operations, including principally the following transactions.

Sale of Befesa

        On June 13, 2013, we entered into a share purchase agreement for the sale of 100% of our shares in our subsidiary Befesa to funds advised by Triton Partners (the "Triton Funds"). After customary net debt adjustments and subject to certain adjustments, total consideration to us amounts to €620 million which is comprised of €348 million total cash, of which a payment of €331 million was received at closing and deferred compensation of €17 million (including €15 million in escrow pending resolution of ongoing litigation and a €2 million long-term receivable from a Befesa customer), a €48 million subordinated vendor note with a five-year maturity and a €225 million (par value) subordinated convertible instrument with a 15-year maturity (subject to two five-year extensions) accruing interest of 6 month Euribor in effect at closing date plus a 6% spread and which, upon the occurrence of certain triggering events including, but not limited to, Befesa's failure to meet certain financial targets or the exit of the Triton Funds from Befesa, may be converted into approximately 14% of the shares of Befesa (subject to certain adjustments). In addition, we undertook to ensure that either existing financing or new alternative financing up to the amount drawn down as of December 31, 2012, would be available with substantially the same terms and conditions to Befesa until September 30, 2013. We also had a commitment to provide limited financial guarantees for Befesa until September 30, 2013, after which date the guarantees are being gradually cancelled. Finally, we will provide interim bridge financing to Befesa in connection with the construction of a new plant in Germany in an amount of €15 million. The share purchase agreement contains a two-year non-compete provision concerning Befesa's activities.

        At the end of the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 all the conditions necessary to close the transaction were fulfilled (including the required approvals from the competition authorities). Accordingly, we have recorded the sale as of June 30, 2013, derecognizing the assets and liabilities of this shareholding and recognizing a gain of €0.4 million, included in "Results for the year from discontinued operations, net of taxes" in the Consolidated Income Statement for the six month period ended on June 30, 2013. On July 15, 2013, we received €331 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the price agreed for the shares and the sale of the transaction was definitely closed. We have used the proceeds from the Befesa Sale to replace expiring working capital facilities and to increase our flexibility to manage seasonal fluctuations in our working capital.

        Taking into account the significance of the activities carried out by Befesa to Abengoa, the sale of this shareholding is considered as a discontinued operation in accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations".

        In accordance with this standard, the results of Befesa until the closing of the sale and the result of this sale are included under a single heading (profit for the year from discontinued operations, net of tax). In our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Likewise, the consolidated income statement for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, 2010 and 2009 also includes the results of Befesa under a single heading. The Befesa Sale also resulted in the removal of the Industrial Recycling segment from our Industrial Production activity.

Sale of Brazilian Transmission Line Assets

        We sold, in two portions pursuant to three share purchase agreements, 100% of certain Brazilian transmission line assets to TAESA, an affiliate of Cemig.

        On June 2, 2011, Abengoa Concessões entered into an agreement with TAESA to sell 50% of its shareholding in a newly formed entity, named UNISA, to which Abengoa Concessões contributed 100% of its interests in four project companies that it controls and that hold power transmission line concessions in Brazil. These four project companies are STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III. In addition, on June 2, 2011, Abengoa Concessões and Abengoa Construção Brasil Ltda. entered into an agreement with TAESA to sell 100% of the share capital of NTE, another project company that holds a power transmission line concession in Brazil. The sales corresponding to the sale of 100% of the shareholding of NTE and 50% of the shareholding of UNISA are referred to herein as the "First Cemig Sale." The First Cemig Sale was closed on November 30, 2011 and, accordingly, is fully reflected in our historical statement of financial position as of December 31, 2011.

        As consideration for the First Cemig Sale, upon closing we received the equivalent of approximately €479 million in net cash proceeds in Brazilian reais and reduced our net consolidated debt by approximately €642 million on our statement of financial position as of December 31, 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded a net gain from the sale of €45 million reflected in the "Other operating income" line item in our consolidated income statement (€43 million after taxes) resulting from the First Cemig Sale. The share purchase agreements for each of UNISA and NTE in respect of the First Cemig Sale provided for a post-closing price adjustment to be paid following the preparation of the audited financial statements of the relevant project companies taking into account, among other variables, changes in the share capital thereof and any dividends or distributions made between signing and closing. No such adjustments were required to be paid under the terms of the share purchase agreements with respect to the First Cemig Sale.

        In addition to the First Cemig Sale, we signed an agreement with TAESA on March 16, 2012 to sell our remaining 50% interest in UNISA, thereby completing the divestment of certain Brazilian transmission line concession assets (STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III) (the "Second Cemig Sale," and collectively with the First Cemig Sale, the "Cemig Sales"). On June 30, 2012, all the conditions necessary to close the transaction were fulfilled, and on July 2, we received €354 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the total price agreed for the shares. The gain from the Second Cemig Sale of €4.5 million is reflected in the "Other operating income" line item in our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Second Cemig Sale includes a post-closing adjustment mechanism similar to that described above relating to the First Cemig Sale, and we similarly do not expect any significant post-closing adjustment to be payable.

        In the consolidated income statement for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 included in our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, the profits and losses of NTE and the four project companies we contributed to UNISA (STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III) are fully consolidated until November 30, 2011. Following such date until December 31, 2011, we included our 50% share in the profits and losses of UNISA following the proportional consolidation method. In the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 the profits and losses of the four project companies are recorded under the equity method as a result of the retrospective application of IFRS 11 from January 1, 2012 until June 30, 2012, when the Second Cemig Sale closed. See "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information" for further discussion.

Business combination of the Rioglass Group

        Rioglass Group ("Rioglass") was incorporated in 2006 as a joint venture between us and its former shareholders. Rioglass manufactures and sells parabolic trough mirrors for solar thermal plants, using an exclusive technology developed internally.

        Since the incorporation of Rioglass, solar-thermal energy has experienced a strong development worldwide. Global installed capacity has reached 1,560 MW in operation, mainly in Spain and the United States. Recently, we experienced a significant international expansion in other geographies, with plants in construction in the Middle East, Africa and India and with ambitious plans to develop new solar thermal plants in several countries such as South Africa, Australia, China, India, Saudi Arabia and Chile.

        On January 16, 2012 Abengoa Solar, S.A. signed an agreement with Rioglass Laminar, S.L. to acquire an additional share of Rioglass Holding, S.A. With this acquisition, and once the agreement's closing conditions have been fulfilled, we became the majority shareholder of Rioglass and obtained control of the management of the group, a business which is key to our strategy of international expansion. As a result, Rioglass, which was integrated proportionally, has started to be fully consolidated as of January 1, 2012.

        Since the business combination was achieved in stages according to IFRS 3, we have re-measured our previously held equity interest in the acquiree at our acquisition-date fair value, which consists primarily in the value of committed sales from Rioglass for the use of technology and mirrors, linked to relations and contracts existing with clients in the construction of solar thermal plants in Spain, the United States, South Africa, Mexico and India. This valuation has represented a gain of €85,247 thousand. The difference between the fair value of the stake acquired in Rioglass group and the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, amounting to €38,919 thousand, has been recorded as goodwill.

        Additionally, according to IFRS 3, we have finalized the evaluation of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in order to perform the purchase price allocation, considering all identifiable fixed and intangible assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities to the extent they are subject to recognition according to IFRS. Among the assets identified, higher values have been assigned to technology and customer relationships. See Note 6.3 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Divestment of Telvent GIT, S.A.

        As of December 31, 2010 and during part of the year 2011 we held a 40% shareholding in Telvent. Despite partially reducing our share ownership in Telvent during 2009 through the sale of 7,768,844 ordinary shares, we remained the largest shareholder and our 40% shareholding, along with our control of certain treasury shares held by Telvent, permitted us to exercise de facto control over Telvent and therefore Telvent's financial information was fully consolidated with our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 and during the period of 2011 in which we held control over Telvent. On June 1, 2011, we announced the sale of our investment in Telvent (the "Telvent Disposal"), in which we sold our 40% shareholding in Telvent to Schneider Electric S.A. ("SE"). Following the agreement to sell, SE launched a tender offer to acquire all of the remaining Telvent shares. SE launched the tender offer to acquire all Telvent shares at a price of $40 per share in cash, which valued the business at €1,360 million, or a premium of 36%, to Telvent's average share price over the previous 90 days prior to the announcement of the offer. On September 5, 2011, following completion of the customary closing conditions and the receipt of regulatory approvals, the transaction was completed. Our cash proceeds from the Telvent Disposal were €391 million and consolidated net debt reduction was €725 million. In addition, we recorded a gain which is included in the €91 million profit from discontinued operations as reflected on our income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. As a result, taking into account the significance of Telvent to us, Telvent was treated as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, and the results obtained from this sale are included under a single heading, "Profit after tax from discontinued operations," in the consolidated income statement for the year 2011, together with the results generated by Telvent until the moment of its sale, and the consolidated income statement for 2010 has been

recasted to present Telvent as discontinued operations. The Telvent Disposal also resulted in the removal of our Information Technologies segment. See Note 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

Commencement of Operations of Projects

        The comparability of our results of operations is significantly influenced by the volume of projects that become operational during a particular year. The number of projects becoming operational and the length of projects under construction significantly impact our revenue and operating profit, as well as our consolidated profit after tax during a particular period, which makes the comparison of periods difficult.

        The following table sets forth the principal projects that commenced operations during each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 and through June 30, 2013, including the quarter in which operations began.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Commodity Prices

        Our Industrial Production activity is particularly sensitive to commodity price changes. The Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity is affected by the availability of supply of grains such as wheat, barley, corn and sorghum as well as sugar. We acquire grain and sugar as raw materials to produce ethanol

94


Table of Contents

and distillers, grains and solubles ("DGS"). Consequently, any increase in the cost of such grains increases our cost of ethanol production. Our Biofuels segment is exposed to, among other factors, fluctuations in the cost of grain caused by meteorological conditions, such as droughts or excessive rainfall. Furthermore, the output price of ethanol is exposed to regional changes in price. Ethanol prices fluctuate in response to domestic and international prices, competition, governmental policies and regulations, meteorological conditions, market demand for gasoline and market demand for ethanol as an alternative or additive to gasoline. To mitigate these effects, when acquiring raw materials for the production of ethanol, we engage in commodity hedging transactions so as to ensure that there is a sufficient margin between the costs of our raw materials and the price of ethanol sold, which is known in the industry as a "crush margin." Furthermore, in Brazil, we also grow our own sugarcane, which partially insulates us against any extreme price fluctuations in Brazil and allows our ethanol production plants to remain properly supplied.

        In addition, our Engineering and Construction and Industrial Production activities and the Solar segment of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity require significant consumption of energy, predominantly electricity and natural gas, and we are, therefore, exposed to fluctuations in their price. Although our energy consumption costs account for a relatively small portion of our total operating expenses, the price of energy is volatile and shortages can occur leading to unexpected price increases. To mitigate this risk, some of our energy and gas contracts include mechanisms to limit price increases such as caps, indexing any cost increase to an increase in output price or permitting a pass-through of the cost increase to the customer. Significant increases in energy or oil costs or shortages in supply can have an adverse effect on our business. However, we also benefit from increases in energy prices through our Biofuels segment and our Engineering and Construction activity when plants are not subject to the fixed tariff regime. As the Solar segment of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity generates revenue from the sale of electricity produced, increases in energy prices may increase our revenue generated by our solar power plants and, in the Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity, our biofuel process plants in Europe and Brazil contain co-generation units that produce excess electricity which is sold to public utilities such as Eletrobrás in Brazil.

        To mitigate certain risks of variation in market prices of commodities, we seek to hedge our exposure through the use of forward sale and purchase contracts and options listed on organized markets, as well as over-the-counter contracts with financial entities. Nevertheless, our actions may not be successful and such arrangements expose us to the credit risk of our counterparties.

Regulation

        We operate in a significant number of regulated markets and our Engineering and Construction and Industrial Production activities and the Solar segment of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity are, in particular, subject to extensive regulation by governmental agencies in a number of the countries in which they operate. The degree of regulation that each one of our reporting segments is subject to varies according to country. In a number of the countries in which we operate, regulation is carried out by national regulatory authorities. In some countries, such as the United States, Brazil and, to a certain degree, Spain, there are various additional layers of regulation at the state, regional and/or local level. In countries such as these, the degree of state, regional and/or local regulation may also be materially different for reporting segments within the particular country, if the reporting segments are located in different states and/or localities.

Renewable Energies

        Demand for a number of our products and services from our operations including our Engineering and Construction and Industrial Production activities and the Solar segment of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity, depends significantly on government legislation, regulation, incentives and subsidies aimed at promoting greater use of renewable energies and sustainable products and services. This governmental action has been driven by political change largely precipitated from public perception of climate change and desired action from government, particularly in the United States and Europe.

95


Table of Contents

        In our Solar segment, various key jurisdictions, including the United States and Europe, have introduced or bolstered regulation concerning the use of solar and other renewable energies. The United States unveiled legislative changes, and the European Union passed the new Renewable Energies Directive ("RED") and the Fuel Quality Directive ("FQD") in April 2009, both of which, among other things, impose renewable energy targets for 2020. The RED covers energy consumption as a whole, including for heating and cooling, and lays down legally binding rather than indicative national targets such that the EU, as a whole, achieves a 20% share of renewable energy by 2020. The FQD establishes a 10% renewable energy in transport target by 2020. In our Biofuels segment, we have benefited from regulation which has facilitated the development of new technologies and enabled biofuel producers to operate profitably.

        Spain, after many years of strong support for solar and other renewable energies, has recently enacted several new laws introducing regulatory changes which adversely affect the solar industry, including our solar activities in Spain. These regulatory changes include a new law adopted on December 27, 2012 which imposes a 7% levy on revenue received from power generation, including the revenue we generate from thermo-solar plants, and excludes from the feed-in tariff the power produced by thermo-solar installations using gas (going forward, payment for this energy will be at market price). A new law adopted on February 1, 2013 limiting remuneration schemes for renewable energy produced by eliminating pool plus premium pricing and changing the applicable adjustment for changes in the consumer price index. See "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Law 15/2012 on Tax Measures for Energy Sustainability" and "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Royal Decree Law 2/2013."

        Taken by themselves, these regulatory changes adversely affect our thermo-solar electricity generation activity in Spain, and therefore the results of our Solar segment. However, based on the bilateral legal relationship established between us and the Spanish government in the individual rulings that we obtained in early 2011 from the Ministry of Industry, we believe that we have legal recourse to bring claims for the impact on the profitability of our plants caused by the Spanish government's nonperformance, although those rulings do not guarantee that we would be successful in any claim brought by us against the Spanish government. In this regard, in June 2013, we commenced a private-law action against the Spanish government in the civil court of first instance (juzgado de primera instancia) in Seville for breach of contract based on the administrative ruling issued in respect of our Helios I thermo-solar plant. In that action we are seeking performance by the Spanish government in accordance with the terms of that administrative ruling or, in the alternative, money damages in an amount equivalent to the difference between the profit we would have obtained under the administrating ruling and the profit that we will obtain under the Spanish government's special-regime tariff. The civil court has dismissed our complaint on the procedural ground that we must first exhaust our administrative remedies before the Ministry of Industry. We believe the dismissal was improper under applicable case-law and have appealed the lower court's decision to the appellate court (audiencia provincial) in Seville. Also in June 2013, we submitted a demand for arbitration on behalf of our subsidiary CSP Equity Investment S.a.r.l. against the Spanish government as a signatory to the Energy Charter Treaty. CSP Equity Investment holds our equity interests in the Helioenergy 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3, and Solacor 1 and 2 thermo-solar plants. Our demand for arbitration alleges that the Spanish government's regulatory reforms of the electricity sector have breached CSP Equity Investment's legitimate expectations under the administrative rulings issued in respect of those facilities and constitute expropriation. Further, we are seeking compensation through money damages, in an amount yet to be determined. The arbitral proceeding will be conducted in The Hague in accordance with the rules of the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce before a panel of three arbitrators. Two of the three arbitrators have been appointed; the chair of the arbitral tribunal is in the process of being appointed.

        In July 2013, the Spanish government passed a new law related to the electric sector in Spain, the goal of which is to achieve financial stability in the sector by approving a new legal and remuneration special regime for installations producing electricity from renewable energy sources, among other things. Until new regulations resulting from the law are developed, the existing regulations shall temporarily continue. Any change arising from the regulations to be approved by the Spanish government within the frame of Royal

96


Table of Contents

Decree Law 9/2013 may have an impact in the business, financial conditions or operating results of the activities of electric energy under the new special regime. See "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Royal Decree Law 9/2013" for further information.

        Certain government policies may expire or be phased out over time, cease due to lack of funding or upon exhaustion of the allocated funding or be subject to cancellation or non-renewal by the applicable authority, including in Spain as a result of austerity measures introduced in recent years. See "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Law 15/2012 on Tax Measures for Energy Sustainability" and "Regulation—Spain—Solar Regulatory Framework—Royal Decree Law 2/2013." As we cannot guarantee that such government support will be maintained in full, in part or at all, the market for our products and services and our corresponding results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Research, Development and Innovation

        Under Spanish law, our expenditures associated with technological innovation activities are entitled, among other things, to a deduction in corporate tax between 8% and 42% (between 12% and 42% for fiscal periods commencing after the entry into force of Law 2/2011, March 4, 2011 on Sustainable Economy), according to the technological level of the project, for the fiscal year in which they were incurred, provided that such expenditures were incurred in accordance with cost accounting and were specifically undertaken in connection with identified projects. These deductions may be applied in assessments of tax periods that end in the 18 years subsequent to the tax period in which they were generated, provided that the other requirements of the corporate income tax regulations are complied with. The amount of deferred tax assets corresponding to R&D tax deductions amounted to €69.9 million as of December 31, 2012. (Pursuant to Law 14/2013 of September 27 to support entrepreneurs and their internationalization, for fiscal years initiated as from January 1, 2013 and at the discretion of the tax payer, under certain circumstances, upon a 20% reduction of the R&D&i tax deduction, this deduction will not be subject to the ordinary limitations in the application of tax deductions and in case of lack of tax quota of the period in which to apply this tax deduction, it will be refundable in cash. The maximum R&D tax deduction either applicable or refundable is €3 million per year and €1 million for technological innovation.) In addition to these deductions, which can be generated during the period of creation of an intangible asset, Spanish law allows the application of another tax incentive during the period of utilization of certain intangible assets. Pursuant to Article 23 of the Revised Text of the Spanish Income Tax Act, we may apply for tax incentives for the transfer of use of intangible assets. Such incentives consist in a 50% exemption of the revenue generated by the transfer of use of such intangible assets which is applied directly to the taxable income (i.e., licensing revenue or royalties). (Pursuant to Law 14/2013 of September 27 to support entrepreneurs and their internationalization, this tax incentive has been modified with effects as from September 28, 2013. For the transfer of use of intangible assets carried out as from such date, this tax incentive will consist in a 60% reduction of the profit generated by the transfer of use of such intangible assets.) This incentive is expected to be recurring over the coming years. As it is not a deduction to be applied to the income tax payable, it is not carried forward and does not generate a deferred tax asset as is the case with R&D tax deductions.

        In the United States, we participate in loan guarantee programs with the DOE that are aimed at promoting the rapid deployment of renewable energy and electric power transmission projects. The programs provide loan guarantees to renewable energy projects, related manufacturing facilities and electric power transmission projects. As part of these programs, in June 2011, the DOE offered us a conditional commitment for a $1,202 million loan guarantee to support the construction and start-up of our Mojave solar project, a 280 MW CSP solar plant in the Mojave Desert, California. In addition, on December 21, 2010, the DOE announced a final commitment for a $1,450 million loan guarantee to support the construction and start-up of one of the largest CSP power plants in the world (Solana), which we are constructing pursuant to a power purchase agreement with Arizona Public Service. Furthermore, our Solar and Biofuels segments have also received DOE research grants of $145.8 million and in 2010, our Biofuels segment signed a four-year $35.5 million contract to develop technology for advanced biorefining of distillers, grain and corn blends.

Environmental

        Our business is subject to significant environmental regulation, which, among other things, requires us to perform environmental impact studies on future projects, obtain regulatory licenses, permits and other approvals and to comply with the requirements of such licenses, permits and approvals. Over recent years, environmental regulation has increased and changed rapidly and has caused a corresponding increase in our cost of compliance and has impacted our financial condition. Furthermore, if we fail to be in compliance, we may become subject to significant liability, including fines, penalties, damages, fees and expenses and closures.

Spanish Export Tax Credit

        Through our increasing international presence and a corresponding increase in our overseas investments and exports, we have claimed tax benefits provided under Article 37, Export Tax Credit (Deducción por actividades de exportación "DAEX") of the Spanish Corporate Income Tax law, in connection with our overseas investments and exports of goods and services from Spain. Export tax credits provided in connection with overseas investments is calculated as a percentage of investments through the acquisition of interest in foreign companies or the incorporation of subsidiaries established abroad. This percentage, which was initially set at 25%, has been progressively reduced since 2007 to reach 3% in 2010 and 0% in 2011. We had a right to these tax incentives but did not claim them over a period of several years, and in 2008 determined to claim these credits for the tax period ended December 31, 2008 and for certain prior years. The claiming of this export tax credit during 2008 for that tax period and prior periods had a significant impact on our income tax expense in that year. We also claimed the export tax credit in 2009 and in 2010, but only for the credit generated in the corresponding fiscal year, as a result of which the amount of such tax credit in each such year was substantially less than the tax credit claimed in 2008 in respect of 2008 and prior years. A portion of the export tax credit claimed in 2008, 2009 and 2010 was treated as government grants and recognized in other operating income in those periods. No distinction was made with respect to the recognition or measurement of the related deferred tax assets in the balance sheet. The Export Tax Credit was repealed with effect from January 1, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, we have recognized the full amount of Export Tax Credits generated through 2010. The amount of deferred tax assets recognized for this credit totalled €257.0 million as of December 31, 2012. The amount recognized in 2011 corresponds to tax credits generated in prior periods. The recognition of this tax credit was made after updating the forecasts used for the valuation of the deferred tax assets due to a regulatory change that increased the limit for applying these credits from 50% to 60% of the income tax payable. We also took into account the fact that an income tax audit by the Spanish tax authorities of the Spanish tax group for the periods 2005 to 2008, which was finalized on January 26, 2012, provided favorable results for the Company with respect to the application of this tax credit.

Spanish Export Tax Incentive

        International projects involving the export of goods and services from Spain receive special treatment in Spain, generating a tax incentive applicable to the taxable income base for the year, which exempts any profits from abroad. These are not deductions to be applied to the income tax payable amount, but rather incentives that are applied directly to reduce the taxable income of the current year. Therefore, they are recognized directly in the income statement as a lower tax expense, and they do not result in the capitalization of any deferred tax asset.

Backlog and Concessions

        We believe that our backlog is a significant indicator of the growth of our Engineering and Construction ("E&C") business and provides useful trend information and revenue visibility based on our activities over the previous two years. Backlog serves to measure the total euro value of work to be performed on contracts awarded, in progress and customer subscriptions, but does not include estimated revenue streams from the operating phase of any of our concession-based projects, which are reported in a different operating

98


Table of Contents

segment. Backlog consists principally of projects, operations and services for which we have signed contracts and in respect of which we have received non-binding commitments from customers or other operations within our Group, where the related revenues are not eliminated upon consolidation. Commitments may be in the form of written contracts for specific projects, purchase orders, or indications of the amount of time and materials we need to make available for customers' anticipated projects. The volume and timing of executing the work in our backlog is important to us in anticipating our operational and financing needs and our ability to execute our backlog is dependent on our ability to meet such operational and financing needs. Our work to be performed in our backlog is typically completed within 12 to 24 months. Backlog is provided on a net basis after accounting for intra-group eliminations. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, 2011, 2010 and 2009, our backlog (excluding intra group sales) was approximately €7,133 million, €6,679 million, €7,535 million, €6,253 million and €5,017 million, respectively.

        In recent years, our backlog has grown significantly across our activities and we expect that our backlog will drive our results of operations in the near term as we undertake projects and operations. While our backlog has increased in recent years, it has fluctuated on a quarter-to-quarter basis due to the signing of new contracts, more of which have historically tended to be executed as the year progresses as customers make purchases under their capital budgets, as well as the pace of execution of existing contracts. As a result of the changes in our backlog, whether due to the signing of new contracts or commitments, the pace of execution of our contracts or otherwise, our results of operations for certain of the financial periods discussed in this prospectus may not be directly comparable with our results of operations for other financial periods discussed herein or future financial periods. See "Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business and the Markets in Which We Operate — Our backlog of unfilled orders is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations and is, therefore, not a fully accurate indicator of our future revenue or earnings."

        As of June 30, 2013, the average remaining life of our concessions and concession-type agreements was approximately 26 years. We believe that the average life of our concessions and concession-type agreements is a significant indicator of our forecasted revenue streams and the growth of our business. Concessions consist of long-term projects awarded to, and undertaken by us (in conjunction with other companies or on an exclusive basis) typically over a term of 20 to 30 years. Such projects typically include the construction phase, as well as future provisions associated with the operation and maintenance services provided during the concession period. In order to maintain or grow our business, we must obtain extensions to our current concessions and concession-type agreements or secure new concessions to replace our concessions as they expire. Furthermore, the revenue that we generate from our concession projects is significantly dependent on regulated tariffs. Under most of our concession agreements, there is an established tariff structure that provides us with limited or no possibility to adjust our tariffs as a result of fluctuations in prices of raw materials, exchange rates, labor and subcontractor costs or any other variations in the conditions of specific jurisdictions in which our concessions are located.

Capital Expenditures

        Our business has significant capital expenditure requirements, including construction as well as R&D&i costs. Our capital expenditure requirements include asset and concession construction costs of power transmission lines, solar power plants and co-generation power plants, as well as infrastructure for the production of ethanol and desalination plants. We finance these capital projects primarily through non-recourse debt issued by a project finance company, along with debt incurred at the corporate level. Consequently, a significant part of our business is capital-intensive and our new assets under construction are highly leveraged. Over the last few years, the costs associated with our requirements have increased significantly, largely due to our increased business activity. See "— Liquidity and Capital Resources — Capital Expenditures." As a result, these increases have resulted in an increase of our non-recourse debt and related increased service costs, resulting in significantly reduced available cash flow from our project finance companies. As of June 30, 2013, our total corporate debt was €5,252.0 million and our total non-recourse debt was €5,297.6 million.

Interest Rates

        We incur significant indebtedness during the course of our operations. The interest rate risk arises mainly from indebtedness with variable interest rates. To mitigate the interest rate risk, we primarily use interest rate swaps and interest rate options which, in exchange for a fee, offer protection against a rise in interest rates. Our results of operations can be affected by changes in interest rates with respect to the unhedged portion of our indebtedness that bears interest at floating rates, which typically bears a spread over EURIBOR, LIBOR and Taxa de Juros de Longo Prazo ("TJLP"), for our Brazilian operations.

        If the EURIBOR interest rates had risen by 25 basis points on December 31, 2012, while the rest of the variables remained constant, the effect on the income statement would have been a profit of €4,004 thousand (profit of €15,923 thousand in 2011), on a net basis and giving effect to the cost of the hedged position, mainly due to the fair value increase due to the time value of the interest rate caps designated as hedges, and the effect in equity would have been an increase of €52,163 thousand (increase of €44,077 thousand in 2011) in other reserves as a result of the fair value increase of interest rate swaps and caps designated as hedges.

        A significant increase in interest rates could also reduce the profitability of our projects in the development stage for which we have not yet secured financing and make it more costly for us to submit bids for concessions or third-party construction contracts. In addition, while the financing costs of our subsidiaries tend to be high during the early years of a relevant concession or construction contract, during which the cash flows from the assets support a significant amount of debt in relation to relatively low revenue, we may have opportunities to refinance such debt as such concessions or construction contracts become more mature and their revenue, cash flow and debt coverage ratios improve.

Exchange Rates

        Our functional currency is the euro, but our revenue and expenses are denominated in the local currency of the jurisdictions in which we operate. As we have globally expanded our business, a large and increasing percentage of our revenue is now derived from countries outside of the Eurozone. For the year ended December 31, 2012, 85.1% of our consolidated revenue was derived from countries outside of the Eurozone, principally the United States and Latin America (primarily Brazil).

        As a result, fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies relative to the euro impact our operating results. Impacts associated with fluctuations in foreign currency are discussed in more detail under "— Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk — Foreign Exchange Rate Risk." In countries with currencies other than the euro, assets and liabilities are translated into euro using end-of-period exchange rates; revenue, expenses and cash flows are translated using average rates of exchange. The following tables illustrate the average rates of exchange used.

Period
  Euro
average per U.S. dollar
 

Year ended December 31, 2012

    0.777787  

Year ended December 31, 2011

    0.718857  

Year ended December 31, 2010

    0.755149  

        We are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations principally between the euro and our U.S. Dollar denominated debt. In order to mitigate these exchange risks, we enter into forward exchange contracts and currency options which hedge the fair value of our future cash flows.

        If the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar had risen (decreased) by an average of 10% against the euro throughout the year ended December 31, 2012, while the rest of the variables remained constant, the effect in the profit and loss accounts would have been a decrease (increase) in profit of €10,602 thousand (decrease of €1,206 thousand in 2011), mainly due to our U.S. dollar unhedged net liability position in companies with

100


Table of Contents

euro functional currency and a decrease in other reserves of €2,440 thousand (increase of €3,338 in 2011), as a result of the cash flow hedging effects on highly probable future transactions.

        In addition, we are generally exposed to foreign currency exchange translation risk with respect to our subsidiaries whose reporting currency is other than the euro. The contribution of these subsidiaries to our consolidated financial statements is significantly affected by the fluctuations in exchange rate between their reporting currency and the euro. Our primary foreign exchange translation risk results from our Brazilian and U.S. subsidiaries.

        In our discussion of operating results, we have included foreign exchange impacts in our revenue by providing constant currency revenue growth. The constant currency presentation is a non-GAAP financial measure, which excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations. We calculate constant currency amounts by converting our current period local currency revenue using the prior period foreign currency average exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our prior period reported results. This calculation may differ from similarly titled measures used by others and, accordingly, the constant currency presentation is not meant to substitute for recorded amounts presented in conformity with GAAP nor should such amounts be considered in isolation.

Key Performance Indicators

        In addition to the factors described above, we closely monitor the following key drivers of our businesses' operating performance to plan for our current needs, and to adjust our expectations, financial budgets and forecasts appropriately.

The Global Economy

        Our results of operations have been and continue to be affected by conditions in the global economy. Concerns over inflation, energy costs, geopolitical issues, sovereign debt and government austerity programs

101

and the availability and cost of credit have contributed to increased volatility and diminished expectations for the economy going forward. These factors, combined with volatile oil prices, declining global business and consumer confidence and increased unemployment, have precipitated an economic slowdown which has been followed by inconsistent signs of growth. For example, in our Engineering and Construction activity, the global downturn resulted in a significant decline in investment and current projects under negotiation or in progress slowed down significantly. These declines were largely driven by reduced spending by governments, public administrations and utility companies and a resultant increase in competition for remaining projects.

        Notwithstanding conditions in the global economy generally, some operations within our segments have experienced positive effects due to increased government spending in certain sectors as part of stimulus measures to combat weak economic conditions. For example, there has been recent increased public spending in infrastructure, renewable energies and the water desalination sectors which are all currently experiencing significantly increased growth in certain countries. In addition, a significant part of our business is regulated or benefits from long-term offtake contracts, which provide some protection from the global economic downturn.

Engineering and Construction

        The revenue and profitability of our Engineering and Construction activity is determined by the demand for our services with respect to new infrastructure, mainly in the energy sector. We primarily monitor the amount of our backlog as a significant indicator of our forecasted revenue streams and the growth of that activity. The margins we are able to achieve with respect to the services we provide in our Engineering and Construction activity drive that activity's revenue and profitability.

Concession-Type Infrastructures

        The revenue of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity is determined by the amount of MW capacity under operation in our thermo solar and co-generation plants, the number of kilometers available and operating in our power transmission lines and the volume (in cubic meters) of water treated in our desalination plants. We are currently making significant investments in the development of such assets (as of June 30, 2013 we had €7,001.6 million of net fixed assets and are continuously looking for new opportunities in the area of public private concession agreements (examples include the Solana and Mojave projects in the United States, the new power transmission lines in Peru and Chile and the co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico), which are all in the pre-construction or construction phases) that will contribute to our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity's revenue in the future.

Industrial Production

        The profitability of our Industrial Production activity is mainly affected by zinc and aluminum prices, the volume of waste treated, the volume (in ML) of bioethanol produced, crush margin, which is determined by the commodity input price (mainly for corn, sugarcane and natural gas) and output prices (mainly prices for ethanol and sugar), and prices for the byproducts sold, such as electricity or DGS.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

        The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the specific circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

        An understanding of the accounting policies for these items is important to understand the consolidated financial statements. The following discussion provides more information regarding the estimates and

102


Table of Contents

assumptions used for these items in accordance with IFRS and should be considered in conjunction with the our consolidated financial statements.

        The most critical accounting policies, which reflect significant management estimates and judgment to determine amounts in the our consolidated financial statements, are as follows:

    Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill.

    Consolidation through de facto control.

    Revenue from construction contracts.

    Income taxes and recoverable amount of deferred tax assets.

    Share-based payments.

    Derivative financial instruments.

    Concession agreements.

        Some of these accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management to select the appropriate assumptions to determine these estimates. These assumptions and estimates are based on our historical experience, advice from experienced consultants, forecasts and other circumstances and expectations as of the close of the financial period. The assessment is considered in relation to the global economic situation of the industries and regions where the Group operates, taking into account future development of our businesses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty; therefore, actual results could materially differ from the estimates and assumptions used. In such cases, the carrying values of assets and liabilities are adjusted.

        As of the date of preparation of our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, no relevant changes in the estimates made are anticipated and, therefore, no significant changes in the value of the assets and liabilities recognized at December 31, 2012 are expected.

        Although these estimates and assumptions are being made using all available facts and circumstances, it is possible that future events may require management to amend such estimates and assumptions in future periods. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8, in the consolidated income statement of the year in which the change occurs. The Group significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, presented elsewhere in this prospectus.

Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill

        Goodwill and intangible assets which have not yet come into operation or that have an indefinite useful life are not amortized and are tested for impairment on an annual basis or whenever there is an impairment indicator. Goodwill is tested for impairment within the Cash-Generating Unit to which it belongs. Other intangible assets are tested individually, unless they do not generate cash flows independently from other assets, in which case they are tested within the Cash-Generating Unit to which they belong.

        For those cash generating units with high potential growth, we use cash flow projections for a period of 10 years based on the cash flows identified in the Group's strategic plans, which are reviewed and approved every six months by the management of the Group. The residual value is calculated based on the cash flows of the latest year projected using a steady or nil growth rate. The use of a 10 year period is based on the consideration that this is the minimum period that needs to be used in order to appropriately reflect all the potential growth of these cash generating units. In addition, 10 years projections are prepared based on the historical experience within the Group in preparing long-term strategic plans, which are considered reliable and are prepared on the basis of the Group's internal control system. These cash flows are considered reliable

103


Table of Contents

since they can easily adapt to the changes of the market and of the business segment to which cash generating units belong, based on our past experience on cash flows and margins and on future expectations.

        For other cash generating units we use cash flows projections based on a period of 5 years, calculating the residual value based on the cash flows of the latest year projected, using a growth rate which does not exceed the long term rate for the market in which the cash generating units operates.

        Projected cash flows are discounted using a discount rate based on the weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") (see Note 2.8 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements), adjusted for the specific risks associated to the business unit to which the cash generating unit belongs.

        Based on values in use calculated in accordance with the assumptions and hypotheses described above and in Note 8 to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, the recoverable amount of the cash generating units to which goodwill was assigned is higher than their carrying amount. Detailed sensitivity analysis has been carried out and we have concluded that the carrying amount of the cash generating units will be recovered in full. Main variables considered in the sensitivity analysis are growth rates, discount rates based on the WACC and the main variables of each business.

        As of June 30, 2013, our market capitalization (€900 million) was significantly below our total equity (€1,792.4 million). When such circumstances occur, we perform an analysis of the market drivers that can explain such a difference in order to consider them in the impairment analysis performed on our intangible assets and goodwill. We believe that our market value has been negatively influenced during a long period of time by the uncertainty resulting from electricity sector reform announced in 2012 by the government of Spain but undefined until July 2013, as well as the general economic situation in Spain, despite the fact that less than 20% of our consolidated revenue is actually generated in Spain. Since the government of Spain communicated the latest set of regulatory measures for the electricity sector on July 12, 2013, thereby reducing a significant part of this uncertainty, our Class B stock price has increased by 38%, resulting in a market capitalization of €1.2 billion as of October 3, 2013. Moreover, we believe our market capitalization is affected by our level of indebtedness, as our refinancing risk may be high relative to certain other borrowers due to our exposure to Spanish financial institutions, which have restricted lending in recent years in response to the financial crisis. For these reasons, which explain in our view the value assigned by the market to our shares, has not changed our conclusions on the impairment analysis performed on our goodwill and intangible assets. We will continue to monitor the evolution of our market capitalization in order to identify potential impairment indicators in the future.

        During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, and the years 2012, 2011 and 2010 there were no intangible assets with indefinite useful life or intangible assets not yet in use that were impaired.

Consolidation through de facto control

        De facto control describes the situation where an entity does not hold majority of the voting shares in another entity, but is deemed to have control for reasons other than potential voting rights, contract or the Bylaws.

        Judgment is required in applying the control concept to assess whether de facto control exists. The loss of de facto control in cases where applicable would not have a significant impact on the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of the Group.

Revenue from construction contracts

        Revenue from construction contracts is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method for contracts whose outcome can be reliably estimated and it is probable that they will be profitable. When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be reliably estimated, revenue is recognized only to the extent it is probable that contract costs incurred will be recoverable.

104


Table of Contents

        As described in Note 2.26.b) to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, the percentage of completion is determined at the date of every consolidated statement of financial position based on the actual costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs for the entire contract.

        Revenue recognition using the percentage-of-completion method involves the use of estimates of certain key elements of the construction contracts, such as total estimated contract costs, allowances or provisions related to the contract, period of execution of the contract and recoverability of the claims. We have established, over the years, a robust project management and control system, with periodic monitoring of each project. This system is based on the long-track experience of the Group in constructing complex infrastructures and installations. As far as practicable, we apply past experience in estimating the main elements of construction contracts and rely on objective data such as physical inspections or third parties confirmations. Nevertheless, given the highly tailored characteristics of the construction contracts, most of the estimates are unique to the specific facts and circumstances of each contract.

        Although estimates on construction contracts are periodically reviewed on an individual basis, we exercise significant judgments and not all possible risks can be specifically quantified.

        It is important to point out that, as stated in Note 2.4.2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements on the measurement of property, plant and equipment, in the internal asset construction projects outside the scope of IFRIC 12 on Service Concession Arrangements (see Note 2.25 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements), the totality of the revenues and profits between group companies is eliminated, meaning that said assets are shown at their acquisition cost.

Income taxes and recoverable amount of deferred tax assets

        The current income tax provision is calculated on the basis of relevant tax laws in force at the date of the Statement of Financial Position in the countries in which the subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income. Subsidiaries which are not included in the consolidated income tax returns filed in Spain file income tax returns in numerous tax jurisdictions around the world.

        Determining income tax payable requires judgment in assessing the timing and the amount of deductible and taxable items, as well as the interpretation and application of tax laws in different jurisdictions. Due to this fact, contingencies or additional tax expenses could arise as a result of tax inspections or different interpretations of certain tax laws by the corresponding tax authorities.

        We recognize deferred tax assets for all deductible temporary differences and all unused tax losses and tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which they can be utilized.

        We consider it probable that we will have sufficient taxable profit available in the future to enable a deferred tax asset to be recovered when:

    there are sufficient taxable temporary differences relating to the same tax authority, and the same taxable entity is expected to reverse either in the same period as the expected reversal of the deductible temporary difference or in periods into which a tax loss arising from the deferred tax asset can be carried back or forward;

    it is probable that the taxable entity will have sufficient taxable profit, relating to the same tax authority and the same taxable entity, in the same period as the reversal of the deductible temporary difference (or in the periods into which a tax loss arising from the deferred tax asset can be carried back or forward); or

    tax planning opportunities are available to the entity that will create taxable profit in appropriate periods.

        As of December 31, 2012, our deferred tax assets corresponded mainly to tax loss carryforwards in Brazil, Spain and the United States, and to tax credits for export activities and R&D and other tax deductions generated in Spain, as shown in the following table:

        The jurisdictions where we have tax credits and where we have also recorded tax losses are Brazil and the United States (mainly coming from the bioenergy business). The subsidiaries in these jurisdictions, which include not only the biofuel business but also solar and water, are expected to generate taxable profit in the upcoming years, as described in more detail below.

        We have tax loss carryforwards in Brazil of €130 million as of December 31, 2012. Tax credits for tax loss carryforwards in Brazil were mainly generated in recent years with very poor weather conditions which affected our sugar cane production. In 2011 and 2012 we made investments to improve the quality of the plantations and to increase the milling capacity of the facilities, as well as in the cogeneration plant in order to increase the profitability of the assets. The tax loss carryforwards are expected to offset future taxable income in Brazil, as there is no time limit under Brazilian tax legislation for their application. In addition, in 2012 an internal restructuring was carried out in Brazil in order to obtain additional benefits from certain intangible assets related to our bioenergy business. We expect to generate taxable income that will help to use the tax credits we have in this jurisdiction. We also operate in Brazil through our Engineering and Construction activity. In this jurisdiction, we generated taxable losses amounting to €38 million in 2012 and €28 million in 2011, and taxable income amounting to €53 million in 2010.

        Therefore, our management focuses its assessment of the recoverability of our deferred tax assets mostly on our capacity to generate future taxable income in the United States and Spain. Tax credits for tax loss carryforwards in the United States expire in 20 years. In order to utilize these tax loss carryforwards, which amount to approximately €43 million, we would need to generate future taxable income of approximately €119 million. However, our ability to generate future taxable income in our Biofuels segment in the United States is dependent on managing the spread among the prices of inputs (grain, natural gas and others) and outputs (ethanol, DGS and others), which are subject to significant volatility and uncertainty, as we disclose in "Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Industrial Production Activity." In this jurisdiction, we generated taxable losses amounting to €30 million in 2012, €24 million in 2011 and €35 million in 2010.

        During the last three years the taxable losses generated by the Company in the United States have been driven mainly by specific tax advantages like bonus depreciations and the application of specific Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System ("MACRS") in our Biofuels segment. Those taxable losses were related to

106


Table of Contents

new ethanol plants that we brought into operation within the last three years. Without the application of such tax advantages, the US Bioenergy business would have achieved taxable income in all three years.

        Most of the taxable losses reported in this jurisdiction have been generated by 7-years MACRS applied by the ethanol plants put in place in 2008. In addition, during 2010 the Company elected to apply a 50% bonus depreciation over its two new ethanol plants put in operation during that year. Those taxable losses will reverse in the future.

        During 2012, the Company has experienced unexpected operational losses explained by the following events:

    The 2012 corn harvest has resulted in the lowest crop yield during the last 30 years and the tightest global corn stocks supply in 39 years (USDA report data) because of the deep drought that affected most of the producer countries. This unexpected and unusual situation has resulted in a significant increase in the price of the corn grain up to historical levels ($8.50 per bushel) which significantly reduced our margins. In addition, a drop in gasoline consumption, and therefore ethanol demand, had an impact on the price of ethanol during the year. Furthermore, an overcapacity of ethanol in the industry and an increase to inventory levels of the renewable identification number ("RIN") have caused the use of this RIN instead of the actual production of the ethanol to meet the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) minimum level required.

    Although the Company has generated operational taxable losses during the year 2012, results forecasted for 2013 and subsequent years are expected to be sufficient to offset the accumulated net tax operating losses of the Company. Abengoa Bioenergy US Holding is expected to generate taxable income beginning in 2014. Estimated projected taxable income assessed by the Company has been prepared using external third parties report numbers of the minimum level of margin and benefit that the Company will capture based on the future secured demand for ethanol and the estimated level of prices of corn. The first half of 2013 showed signs of recovery in crush spreads, from a historical low in 2012. During the first half of the year, the average crush spread has increased up to the 60 cents per gallon range with new maximums well over one dollar per gallon forecasted by the late summer. Ethanol production is expected to increase slightly but remain low throughout the third quarter 2013, as many plants closed and now struggle to find cash to restart operations despite the improved economics. The E10 blend wall still remains although blenders are pushing against it due to the high RIN values as they await the EPA's release of the 2014 Renewable Volume Obligation requirements in late September 2013. A 2013-14 corn crop that is expected to solidly replenish grain stocks, low ethanol stocks and decreasing feedstock costs is supporting the improvement of crush margins.

        Tax loss carryforwards in Spain were mainly generated from applying certain tax incentives, such as Spanish Export Tax Incentive. In Spain, we have over €559 million in tax credits and tax loss carryforwards, of which €117 million represent tax loss carryforwards. These tax credits and tax loss carryforwards expire over a period ranging from 15 to 18 years, and their recoverability is based on our ability to generate taxable income of €2.4 billion from our Spanish subsidiaries over this time period. We expect to generate this taxable income from our Engineering and Construction business, which has been growing consistently year-after-year, from our Spanish solar business, where we continue to bring new assets into operation at profitable margins, and from the contribution of our recurring Spanish biofuels businesses. Our ability to generate sufficient taxable income in Spain is dependent on the achievement of the above. Spain has recently experienced negative economic conditions, including high unemployment and significant government debt, which may adversely affect investment by customers in new projects. See "Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business and the Markets in Which We Operate — Decreases in government budgets, reductions in government subsidies and adverse changes in law may adversely affect our business and the development of existing and new projects." In addition, our ability to generate taxable income in Spain may be affected by the performance of our thermo-solar segment, which is subject to changes in regulation (see "Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Concession-Type Infrastructures Activity — Our solar projects will be negatively affected if there are adverse

107


Table of Contents

changes to national and international laws and policies that support renewable energy sources"), as our Engineering and Construction business in Spain relies on the construction of new thermo-solar plants. In this jurisdiction, we generated taxable income amounting to €194 million in 2012 and €224 million in 2011 and taxable losses amounting to €176 million in 2010.

        Our management assesses the recoverability of deferred tax assets on the basis of estimates of future taxable profit. These estimates are derived from the projections included in our five- and ten-year strategic plans, which are prepared on a yearly basis and reviewed twice a year for the accuracy of the assumptions used. Based on our current estimates we expect to generate sufficient future taxable income to achieve the realization of our current tax credits and tax loss carryforwards, supported by our historical trend of business performance.

        In assessing the recoverability of our deferred tax assets, our management also considers the foreseen reversal of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies. To the extent management relies on deferred tax liabilities for the realizability of our deferred tax assets, such deferred tax liabilities are expected to reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets. We consider that the recovery of our current deferred tax assets is probable without counting on potential tax planning strategies that we could use in the future.

        During the year ended December 31, 2012, most of the items that generate tax benefit are items that reduce our taxable income and which do not generate tax credits. Tax credits described above show capitalized deductions amounting to €442 million, a decrease of €26 million with respect to the previous year. During recent years, the weight of capitalized deductions in the income tax benefit of the year was much higher than in the year 2012. Export tax credit under Article 37 (DAEX) was especially significant, with a capitalized amount of €260 million as of December 31, 2011. This deduction ended in 2011. During the year 2012 we still generated deductions, but in an amount lower than in prior years and less significant than other items when analyzing the reconciliation of income tax benefit. Therefore, we expect that the balance of unused tax credit in Spain will decline significantly in the future as a result of the taxable income we expect to generate in Spain.

        Our current and deferred income taxes may be impacted by events and transactions arising in the normal course of business as well as by special non-recurring items. Assessment of the appropriate amount and classification of income taxes is dependent on several factors, including estimates of the timing and realization of deferred tax assets and the timing of income tax payments.

        Actual collections and payments may materially differ from these estimates as a result of changes in tax laws as well as unforeseen future transactions impacting the income tax balances.

Share-based payments

        We maintain various share-based incentive plans for some of our managers and employees at parent and subsidiary companies level. The most significant of these plans was granted in 2005 making available to 99 managers of Abengoa linked to the achievement of certain business objectives. Based on its specific conditions, the share-based plan is considered a cash-settled share-based payment, by means of which the company rewards the services provided by the managers, incurring a liability for an amount based on the value of the shares. Note 29 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, reflects the information detailing the expenses incurred from employee benefits.

        The fair value of the services received in exchange for the granting of the option is recognized as a personnel expense using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Certain inputs are used in the Black-Scholes model to generate variables such as the share price, the estimated return per dividend, the expected life of the option (5 years), the interest rates and the share market volatility, as appropriate.

        The total amount charged to expenses during the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of a hypothetical option to sell ("put") granted by the company to the managers, excluding the effect of

108


Table of Contents

the vesting conditions that are not market conditions, and including in the hypotheses only the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. In this regard, the number of options it is expected will become exercisable is considered in the calculation.

        The determination of the fair value of the services requires the use of estimates and certain assumptions. At the end of each financial year, we revise the estimates of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable and recognize the impact of this revision of the original estimates, where appropriate, in the consolidated income statement. Changes in the estimates and assumptions used in the valuation model could impact the results of operations.

Derivatives and hedging

        Derivatives are recorded at fair value. The Company applies hedge accounting to all hedging derivatives that qualify to be accounted for as hedges under IFRS.

        When hedge accounting is applied, hedging strategy and risk management objectives are documented at inception, as well as the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items. Effectiveness of the hedging relationship needs to be assessed on an ongoing basis. Effectiveness tests are performed prospectively and retrospectively at inception and at each reporting date, following the dollar offset method or the regression method, depending on the type of derivatives.

        We have three types of hedges:

    Fair value hedge for recognized assets and liabilities

      Changes in fair value of the derivatives are recorded in the consolidated income statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the asset or liability that is being hedged.

    Cash flow hedge for forecasted transactions

      The effective portion of changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded temporarily in equity and are subsequently reclassified from equity to profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects profit or loss. Any ineffective portion of the hedged transaction is recorded in the consolidated income statement as it occurs.

      When options are designated as hedging instruments (such as interest rate options described in Note 14 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements), the intrinsic value and time value of the financial hedge instrument are separated. Changes in intrinsic value which are highly effective are recorded in equity and subsequently reclassified from equity to profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects profit or loss. Changes in time value are recorded in the consolidated income statement, together with any ineffectiveness.

      When the hedged forecasted transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or liability, gains and losses previously recorded in equity are included in the initial cost of the asset or liability.

      When the hedging instrument matures or is sold, or when it no longer meets the requirements to apply hedge accounting, accumulated gains and losses recorded in equity remain as such until the forecast transaction is ultimately recognized in the consolidated income statement. However, if it becomes unlikely that the forecast transaction will actually take place, the accumulated gains and losses in equity are recognized immediately in the consolidated income statement.

    Net investment hedges in foreign operation

      Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, including the hedging of a monetary item considered part of a net investment, are recognized in a similar way to cash flow hedges. The foreign currency transaction gain or loss on the non-derivative hedging instrument that is designated as, and

109


Table of Contents

      is effective as, an economic hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation is reported in the same manner as a translation adjustment. That is, reported in the cumulative translation adjustment section of equity to the extent it is effective as a hedge, as long as the following conditions are met: the notional amount of the non-derivative instrument matches the portion of the net investment designated as being hedged and the non-derivative instrument is denominated in the functional currency of the hedged net investment. In that circumstance, no hedge ineffectiveness would be recognized in earnings.

      Amounts recorded in equity are reclassified to the consolidated income statement when the foreign operation is sold or otherwise disposed of.

        Contracts held for the purposes of receiving or making payment of non-financial elements in accordance with expected purchases, sales or use of goods ("own-use contracts") of the Group are not recognized as derivative instruments, but as executory contracts. In the event that such contracts include embedded derivatives, they are recognized separately from the host contract, if the economic characteristics of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract. The options contracted for the purchase or sale of non-financial elements which may be cancelled through cash outflows are not considered to be own-use contracts.

        Changes in fair value of derivative instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized immediately in the consolidated income statement. Trading derivatives are classified as current assets or liabilities.

        In addition, during 2013, 2010 and 2009 the Group issued convertible bonds to qualified investors and institutions with an outstanding amount of €750.1 million, maturing between one (1) and six (6) years. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the issuances, the bonds qualify as hybrid instruments which are bifurcated into a debt component and an embedded derivative. Embedded derivatives are recognized initially at fair value and at each closing date they are re-measured at fair value, with the change in fair value being recorded in the consolidated income statement (see Note 20.3 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements).

        The inputs used to calculate fair value of our derivatives are based on prices observable on not quoted markets, through the application of valuation models (Level 2). The valuation techniques used to calculate fair value of our derivatives include discounting estimated future cash flows, using assumptions based on market conditions at the date of valuation or using market prices of similar comparable instruments, amongst others. The valuation of derivatives and the identification and valuation of embedded derivatives and own-use contracts requires the use of considerable professional judgment. These determinations were based on available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Concession agreements

        Service concession agreements are recorded in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 12. IFRIC 12 is applicable to public-to-private service concession arrangements where the grantor of the concession governs what services the operator must provide using the infrastructure, to whom and at what price and also controls any significant residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the term of the arrangement. When the operator of the infrastructure is also responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction of such asset, IFRIC 12 requires the separate accounting for the revenue and margins associated with the construction activities, which is not eliminated in consolidation even between companies within the same consolidated group, and for the subsequent operation and maintenance of the infrastructure. In such cases, the investment in the infrastructure used in the concession arrangement cannot be classified as property, plant and equipment of the operator, but rather must be classified as a financial asset or an intangible asset, depending on the nature of the payment rights established under the contract. The infrastructures accounted

110


Table of Contents

for by us as service concessions under IFRIC 12 are mainly related to the activities concerning power transmission lines, desalination plants and thermo-solar electricity generation plants outside of Spain and, with effect from January 1, 2011, in Spain.

        The analysis on whether the IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities involves various complex factors and it is significantly affected by legal interpretation of certain contractual agreements or other terms and conditions with public sector entities. The application of IFRIC 12 requires extensive judgment in relation with, among other factors, (i) the identification of certain infrastructures and contractual agreements in the scope of IFRIC 12, (ii) the understanding of the nature of the payments in order to determine the classification of the infrastructure as a financial asset or as an intangible asset and (iii) the timing and recognition of the revenue from construction and concessionary activity.

        The following are the laws, regulations or agreements with the government most relevant to our analysis of the application of IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar assets in Spain:

    the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007; which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers;

    Royal Decree-Law 6/2009 of April 30 (RDL 6/2009); which adopts certain measures in the energy sector, approves a subsidized rate, and creates a "Pre-Allocation Registry";

    Individual rulings issued to us in January and March 2011, from the Spanish Ministry of Industry for each of our thermo-solar installations, confirming earliest commissioning dates, economic terms of the feed-in tariff/premium economic schemes and other issues related to the legal and economic regime of the plants; and

    Royal Decree 9-2013 of July 12, whereby the Government adopted urgent measures to ensure financial stability in the electrical system.

        The Pre-Allocation Registry created a high level of uncertainty as to whether the thermo-solar plants in Spain would be entitled to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system, as well as whether that regulatory regime would continue to change. Acceptance into the Pre-Allocation Registry did not guarantee that all of the plants accepted into it would be immediately granted the right to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system. There were still far more plants (and, consequently, generating capacity from renewable sources) that had achieved final registration in the Pre-Allocation Registry and were therefore ready to be placed into service and to benefit from the Special Regime remuneration system than the Ministry of Industry had anticipated in its national strategic plan for the Spanish electricity sector. It was widely believed by operators within the renewable energy sector that the Spanish government would not be in a position to grant participation in the Special Regime to every project accepted into the Pre-Allocation Registry, and that further changes to the regulatory framework were therefore very likely to be made to address a widening tariff deficit.

        For that reason, we decided in the second half of 2010 to pursue a strategy to maximize regulatory certainty for purposes of establishing a legal and binding arrangement for the generation and sale of electricity on terms designed to ensure a reasonable level of return on our investment in our Spanish thermo-solar plants and removing the uncertainty introduced by the economic and political circumstances and the various regulatory changes that were being discussed, including RDL 6/2009. We implemented this strategy by applying for an administrative ruling for each of our 13 plants from the Ministry of Industry's General Directorate for Energy Policy and Mining. Our aim was to ensure that we had entered into a bilateral contractual relationship with mutually binding terms and conditions that could not be amended unilaterally and that, in case of default or breach by the Spanish government, would give us the recourse to bring claims based on the damages caused by such default or breach.

        For the foregoing reasons, we did not consider the entry into the Pre-Allocation Registry to constitute the beginning of a service concession arrangement in accordance with the guidance in IFRIC 12 and only

111


Table of Contents

considered a service concession arrangement with the Spanish government within the scope of IFRIC 12 to come into existence upon the receipt of the administrative resolutions in 2011, as it was through those rulings that the Spanish government confirmed, on an individual basis for each thermo-solar plant, the economic terms of the feed-in tariff and the commissioning dates for each asset, creating a bilateral contractual relationship and an obligation on our part to supply the services at the established terms.

        The rulings established a bilateral legal relationship with mutually binding terms and conditions that could not be amended unilaterally and that, in case of nonperformance by the Spanish government, would give us the legal recourse to bring claims based on the impact on the profitability of our plants, although those rulings do not guarantee that we would be successful in any claim brought by us against the Spanish government. If we had not obtained the rulings and only relied on the regulatory framework established by the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007 to participate in the Special Regime, a unilateral change by the Spanish government to that framework affecting all producers equally would have left us without legal recourse. These rulings therefore substantially reduced the uncertainty that contributed to our original conclusion that our Spanish thermo-solar plants were not within the scope of IFRIC 12.

        In this regard, in June 2013, we commenced a private-law action against the Spanish government in the civil court of first instance (juzgado de primera instancia) in Seville for breach of contract based on the administrative ruling issued in respect of our Helios I thermo-solar plant. In that action we are seeking performance by the Spanish government in accordance with the terms of that administrative ruling or, in the alternative, money damages in an amount equivalent to the difference between the profit we would have obtained under the administrating ruling and the profit that we will obtain under the Spanish government's special-regime tariff. The civil court has dismissed our complaint on the procedural ground that we must first exhaust our administrative remedies before the Ministry of Industry. We believe the dismissal was improper under applicable case-law and have appealed the lower court's decision to the appellate court (audiencia provincial) in Seville. Also in June 2013, we submitted a demand for arbitration on behalf of our subsidiary CSP Equity Investment S.a.r.l. against the Spanish government as a signatory to the Energy Charter Treaty. CSP Equity Investment holds our equity interests in the Helioenergy 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3, and Solacor 1 and 2 thermo-solar plants. Our demand for arbitration alleges that the Spanish government's regulatory reform of the electricity sector have breached CSP Equity Investment's legitimate expectations under the administrative rulings issued in respect of those facilities and constitute expropriation. Further, we are seeking compensation through money damages in an amount yet to be determined. The arbitral proceeding will be conducted in The Hague in accordance with the rules of the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce before a panel of three arbitrators. Two of the three arbitrators have been appointed; the chair of the arbitral tribunal is in the process of being appointed.

        Furthermore, during the first eight months of 2011, in view of the complex regulatory and accounting issues raised by the application of IFRIC 12 to those assets, and as a result of a review conducted by our home country regulator, the CNMV, we decided to gather the opinions of legal and accounting experts on this topic to support our analysis and conclusions. After completing that analysis with the CNMV in August 2011, we concluded that our Spanish thermo-solar assets were included in the scope of IFRIC 12. As such, and because the change was driven by a change in the facts and circumstances occurring until that date, we began to apply IFRIC 12 prospectively from September 1, 2011. As described above, from January 1, 2008 through September 1, 2011, we determined that these assets were not under the scope of IFRIC 12, and therefore such plants were accounted for in accordance with IAS 16 as "Property, Plant & Equipment in Projects" and classified under the "Fixed Assets in Projects" line item. Capitalized costs derived from the construction of the plants were recorded in "Other Operating Income—Work performed by the entity and capitalized and other". Upon the original prospective application of IFRIC 12, we reclassified the solar-thermal plant assets from "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" to "Intangible Assets in Projects" and, in accordance with IAS 11, the total contract revenue for the construction of the plants (including amounts previously eliminated in consolidation) began to be recognized from September 1, 2011 based on the percentage of completion method, up to the finalization of the plants. This treatment deferred recognition of the costs, margins and

112


Table of Contents

revenues generated up to that date and previously eliminated in consolidation prospectively, pro rata, over the term of the remaining construction period.

        During the year 2013, in connection with the review by the Staff of the SEC of the Registration Statement of which this prospectus is a part, we re-evaluated the assumptions made in 2011 which led to the application of the accounting policy for thermo-solar plants in Spain described above. On June 30, 2013, we decided, based on the provisions of IAS 8.14, to apply an alternative acceptable accounting treatment which would better reflect the reliability and comparability of financial information, consisting of the revision of the method in which we applied IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar assets in Spain already constructed or under construction upon application of IFRIC 12 and of the revision of the date on which IFRIC 12 was applied to our thermo-solar assets in Spain (January 1, 2011 instead of September 1, 2011). The revised accounting treatment consisted in applying IFRIC 12 prospectively, from January 1, 2011 by derecognizing, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, our thermo-solar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognizing those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects". The difference of €165 million has been recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment on January 1, 2011 in "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. From January 1, 2011, only the remaining contract revenue, costs and margins generated after such date for the ongoing construction of the plants began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11. In addition, the revenue and operating profit that was previously deferred upon original adoption of IFRIC 12 and recognized prospectively during fiscal years 2011 from September 1, 2011 and 2012 has been eliminated. The change in application date resulted in the recognition of revenues and costs associated with the construction activities that occurred between January 1, 2011 and September 1, 2011, that were previously eliminated. In accordance with the terms and requirements of IAS 8 for Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, we applied this change in accounting policy by recasting the 2012 and 2011 annual consolidated financial statements.

        Changes in one or more of the factors or judgments described above may significantly affect the conclusions as to the appropriateness of the application of IFRIC 12, its date of first-time application, or the method of applying it for the first time; and, therefore, would have impacted our results of operations or financial position. See "— Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operation — Application of IFRIC 12" and Notes 2.1.1 and 10.1 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

        In the event that one or more of the factors or judgments described above change, it is possible that the requirements of IFRIC 12 would not be met and we would no longer be able to conclude that our thermo solar assets in Spain should be classified as service concession agreements and thus within the scope of IFRIC 12. As a result, from the date on which we determined that those assets were no longer within the scope of IFRIC 12, the revenue and associated margins realized by us during the construction phase of the affected assets would no longer be recognized in accordance with IFRIC 12 but rather would be eliminated in consolidation, resulting in a decrease in revenue and profits in our consolidated income statements for the periods reported. Our determination that those assets ceased to be within the scope of IFRIC 12 would affect the comparability of our results of operations and our financial condition for the periods and as of the dates before and after the date on which we made that determination. (For more information, see "Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business and the Markets in which We Operate — The analysis of whether IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities, and the determination of the proper accounting treatment at each period end if it is determined that IFRIC 12 is to be applied, involves various complex factors and is significantly affected by legal and accounting interpretations. If the criteria for us to classify our thermo-solar plants in Spain as service concession agreements within the scope of IFRIC 12 do not continue to be met, or if we had to apply IFRIC 12 retrospectively rather than prospectively, our results of operations for the periods presented in this prospectus would be significantly different".)

New accounting standards

a)
Standards, interpretations and amendments published by the IASB effective from January 1, 2013 applied retrospectively to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

    In preparing the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group applied the following new standards and amendments that came into effect on January 1, 2013 under the IFRS approved by the International Accounting Standards Board:

    IFRS 10 'Consolidated Financial Statements'. IFRS 10 supersedes current consolidation requirements of IAS 27 and establishes principles for the presentation and preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. IFRS 10 modifies the current definition of control. The new definition of control sets out the following three elements: power over the investee; exposure, or rights, to variable returns from involvement with the investee; and the ability to use power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor's returns.

    IFRS 11 'Joint arrangements'. IFRS 11, supersedes the actual IAS 31 about joint ventures and under this standard investments in joint arrangements are classified either as joint operations or joint ventures, depending on the contractual rights and obligations each investor has rather than just the legal structure of the joint arrangement. Joint operations arise where a joint operator has rights to the assets and obligations relating to the arrangement and hence accounts for its interest in assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Joint ventures arise where the joint operator has rights to the net assets of the arrangement and accounts for its interest under the equity method. Proportional consolidation of joint ventures is no longer allowed.

    IFRS 12 'Disclosures of interests in other entities'. IFRS 12 defines the required disclosures of interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures and non-controlling interests.

    IAS 27 (amendment) 'Separated financial statements'. After IFRS 10 has been published, IAS 27 covers only separate financial statements.

    IAS 28 (amendment) 'Associates and joint ventures'. IAS 28 has been amended to include the requirements for joint ventures to be accounted for under the equity method following the issuance of IFRS 11.

    IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 (amendments) 'Transition guidance'.

    The main impacts of the application of the new standards IFRS 10 and 11, as well as the amendments to IAS 27 and 28, in relation to what was systematically applied previously, relate to:

    (i)
    The de-consolidation of companies that do not fulfill the conditions of effective control of the interest during the construction phase in terms of decision making for their integration in the Consolidated Financial Statements according to the equity method. It is expected that these projects will be fully consolidated again once they enter into operation and we gain control over them, with corresponding significant increases in fixed assets in projects (project finance) and long-term non-recourse project financing, among others.

    (ii)
    The elimination of the proportional consolidation of the joint ventures, with the equity method being obligatory for recording its interest in the company.

    According to the terms and requirements established in IAS 8 'Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors', the above standards and amendments are required to be retrospectively applied, recasting the comparison information presented for the year 2012 in order to make it comparable with the information at June 30, 2013. Consequently, the Company has recasted the information presented in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of December, 31, 2012, to make it comparable with the information as of June 2013. Our Annual Consolidated Financial

114


Table of Contents

    Statements as of December, 31, 2011 and 2010 have not been recasted according to the transition guidance of this IFRS.

    The effect of the de-consolidation of the affected companies and their integration according to the equity method on the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2012 and on the consolidated income statement for the year ended on such date is shown in Note 2 to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

b)
Standards, interpretations and amendments published by the IASB effective from January 1, 2013 applied prospectively.

IFRS 13 'Fair value measurement'. IFRS 13 defines fair value, sets out in a single IFRS a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements.

    The main impact relates to the measurement of the financial derivatives, call options on Abengoa own shares that were signed to hedge the convertible notes as well as the embedded derivative in the convertible notes (see Note 11).

    IAS 1 (amendment) 'Financial statements presentation'. The main change resulting from this amendment is a requirement to group items presented in 'Other comprehensive income' (OCI) on the basis of whether they will be subsequently reclassified to profit or loss or not (reclassification adjustments).

c)
Standards, interpretations and amendments published by the IASB that will be effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.

IAS 32 (amendment) 'Compensation of financial assets for financial liabilities'. IAS 32 amendment is mandatory for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014 and is to be applied retroactively.

IFRS 9, 'Financial instruments'. This Standard will be effective as from January 1, 2015 under IFRS-IASB.

Explanation of Income Statement Items

Revenue

        Revenue consists of the fair value of consideration received for the sale of goods or services excluding any related charges resulting from operations, before any discounts or returns and excluding intra-group transactions. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when we deliver the goods to the client, the client accepts them and it is reasonably certain that the related receivables will be collectible. Revenue from the sale of services is recognized in the period in which the service is provided, using the percentage of completion method based on the specific contractual terms and conditions of each service agreement, when the revenue of the service contract and the associated costs, as well as the percentage of completion, can be estimated reliably and when it is reasonably certain that the related receivables will be collectible. When one or more of such elements of the service contract cannot be estimated reliably, ordinary income from the sale of service is recognized only to the extent of the expenses recognized that are recoverable. In addition, revenue is generated by the construction and operation of our concession projects is recognized in accordance with IFRIC 12 as described under "— Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates — Concession Agreements." Revenue in each of our business activities is generated as follows:

        Engineering and Construction.    Revenue is generated primarily from infrastructure construction contracts, engineering services and maintenance services of electrical, mechanical and industrial infrastructures.

        Concession-Type Infrastructures.    Revenue is generated primarily from the management and operation of our infrastructure related to power transmission lines, thermo-solar plants, water treatment plants, and co-generation plants which are all regulated through long-term sale agreements.

As of December 31, 2010, 2009, and during part of the year 2011, we held a 40% shareholding in Telvent. Despite partially reducing our share ownership in Telvent during 2009, we remained the largest shareholder and our 40% shareholding, along with our control of certain treasury shares held by Telvent, permitted us to exercise de facto control over Telvent. Therefore Telvent's financial information was fully consolidated with our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period of 2011 in which we held control over Telvent. On June 1, 2011, we announced the sale of our investment in Telvent to Schneider Electric S.A. ("SE") and on September 5, 2011 the transaction was completed. As a result and taking into account the significance of Telvent to us, Telvent was treated as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations". The results obtained from this sale are included under a single heading in the consolidated income statement and under separate line items in the consolidated cash flow statement for the year 2011 and the consolidated income statement for 2010 has been recasted to present Telvent as discontinued operations. For further information regarding the divestment of Telvent, see Note 7 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein.

Comparison of the Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012

Revenue

        Revenue increased by 15.2%, to €3,402.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, from €2,953.2 million for the same period of 2012. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 would have been €3,489.0 million, representing an increase of €535.8 million, or 18.1%, compared to the same period of the previous year. The increase in consolidated revenues was due to the increased revenue contribution from all our operating segments in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 versus the same period of the previous year, but was mostly attributable to the Engineering and Construction business.

        Within Engineering and Construction, revenues increased by €322.5 million due to the ongoing construction of the Mojave thermosolar plant in the United States (the 280 MW solar plant in California, causing a €137.6 million increase period-over-period), of the two thermo solar plants in South Africa (a 100 MW CSP plant and a 50 MW Solar tower technology CSP plant, causing a €191.2 million increase period-over-period), of the 200 MW PV plant in Imperial Valley, California (causing a €113.6 million increase period-over-period), of the 450 MW combined cycle plant in Poland (€59.6 increase period-over-period) and of the wind farm in Uruguay (causing a €61.1 million increase period-over-period). These effects were partially offset by a lower activity of construction of transmission lines in Brazil, given that 2012 was a year of very high execution, with large projects such as Norte Brazil (€139.0 million decrease period-over-period) and Manaus and a lower contribution of the Solana 280 MW solar plant in Arizona (€76.5 million decrease period-over-period) and lower revenues from the construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain (causing a €155.7 million decrease period-over-period). The Technology and Other activity included in our Engineering and Construction activity performed also well with revenues increasing by €41.4 million year-over-year in the first half of 2013. This increase was due primarily to the increase in sale of solar components such as technology and mirrors used in the construction of solar plants in the United States, Spain and South Africa

and to the water technology components used in the construction of the desalination plants in Tenes (Algeria) and Ghana.

        Our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity has also continued its growth path showing a 30.6% increase in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 with respect to the same period of the prior year, which was due to a solid performance in our four segments. Revenues from our Solar segment increased 10.4% in the period due to the solar plants in Spain that entered into operation in the second half of 2012 (Solaben 2 and Helios 2) and to the larger contribution of solar plants that entered in operation in the first half of 2012 (Helios 1 and Solaben 3). Revenues in our Transmission segment also increased by 84.7% up to €32.7 million during the first six month of 2013 from €17.7 million in the same period of last year; this increase is mainly attributable to the entry in operation of the power transmission line in Manaus which covers 586 km. Our water segment activity also increased by 89.0%, achieving a €9.7 million growth period-over-period during the first six months, mostly due to the entry in operation in the first quarter of 2013 of the desalination plant in Qingdao (China). Finally, revenues in our Co-generation segment increased by €18 million up to €48.6 million in the first half of 2013, compared to the same period of 2012; this increase was mainly due to the entry in operation in the first quarter of 2013 of the co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico).

        Revenue from our Industrial Production activity also increased by 7.8% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 versus the same period in the previous year. This revenue increase reflects the generally improved ethanol market conditions during the second quarter of 2013, with stronger RIN's (Renewable Identification Number) values. Revenues increased mainly due to the general increase in ethanol prices in the United States and Europe, partially offset by the decrease in volumes sold in the period. In Brazil revenues increased period-over-period due to increased volumes, as the harvest campaign in 2013 started approximately one month earlier than in 2012, and to an increase in ethanol prices.

        Revenue from our international operations (all activities outside of Spain) increased by 17.7% to €2,798.2 million for the first half of 2013, compared to the same period of the previous year. Our international operations accounted for 82.2% of our total revenue, with the Americas (Latin America and the United States) representing 56.8% of our total revenue and the United States representing the largest geographic region with 30.3% of revenue.

        Spain.    Revenue increased by 5.0% to €604.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, from €575.4 million in the same period of 2012. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to the entry in operation of new solar plants in Spain in the second half of 2012 and first half of 2013 (Solaben 2 and

120


Table of Contents

Helios 2) and to the larger contribution of solar plants that entered into operation in the first half of 2012 (Helios 1 and Solaben 3). In Engineering and Construction, revenues remained stable as the decrease in revenues from the construction of solar plants in Spain was offset by an increase of our Technology and Other segment. Revenues in Biofuels also remained stable in this region period-over-period.

        United States.    Revenue increased by 32.3% to €1,032.3 million for the first half of 2013, from €780.5 million in the same period of 2012. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to the construction of the Mojave solar power plant, which resulted in a €137.6 million increase period-over-period and the construction of the 200MW PV plant that we are building in the Imperial Valley of California, which resulted in an increase of €113.6 million period-over-period. Additionally, the increase was partially attributable to the increase in sales of solar components, such as technology and mirrors used in the construction of the mentioned US solar plants, which resulted in an increase of €33.0 million. These effects were partially offset by a lower contribution of the construction of the Solana solar plant in Arizona which is expected to enter into operation in the third quarter of 2013 (€76.5 million lower contribution in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to the corresponding period of the previous year).

        Europe (excluding Spain).    Revenue increased by 7.0% to €418.9 million for the first six months of 2013, from €391.6 million for the first six months of 2012. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to the construction of the 450 MW combined cycle plant in Poland (€59.6 increase period-over-period). This effect was partially offset by a decrease in revenues in our Biofuels segment, due to lower volumes sold in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period of the previous year.

        Latin America (excluding Brazil).    Revenue increased by 12.9% to €529.1 million during the first half of 2013, from €468.4 million in the same period of 2012. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to revenue from the construction of a wind farm in Uruguay.

        Brazil.    Revenue decreased by 34.1% to €371.2 million for the first half of the year 2013, from €563.7 million for the same period of 2012 mainly due to a lower activity of construction of transmission lines in Brazil, given that 2012 was a year of very high execution, with large projects such as Norte Brazil (€139.0 million decrease period-over-period) and Manaus finalized in 2013 (€47.1 decrease period-over-period). This decrease has been partially offset by the increase in revenues caused by the entry in operation of Manaus transmission line, with €17.0 million contribution in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. In addition, we have signed several new transmission line projects in the region that are expected to contribute to future years' revenues.

        Other (remaining overseas markets).    Revenue increased by 157.3% to €446.7 million in the first half of 2013, from €173.6 million in the same period of 2012. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to the construction of the two thermo solar plants in South Africa, a 100 MW CSP plant and a 50 MW Solar tower technology CSP plant, causing a €191.2 million increase period-over-period.

Table of Contents

        Other operating income decreased by 54.5% to €141.1 million during the first half of 2013, from €310.2 million in the first half of 2012 mainly due to a lower amount capitalized in the construction of transmission lines in Brazil. Grants during the period remained roughly in line versus the same period of last year. Income from various services in the first half of 2013 includes the gain obtained in the sale of our Brazilian subsidiary Bargoa, S.A. amounting to €34.2 million before taxes. Excluding this impact, Income from various services, which corresponds to other minor income, has remained stable period-over-period.

Raw materials consumed

        Raw materials consumed increased by 3.8% to €2,120.0 million for the first half of 2013, from €2,042.9 million in the same period of 2012, due to the increase in revenue in our three activities. Raw materials consumed decreased as a percentage of revenue from 69.2% for the first half of 2012 to 62.3% for the same period of this year. This decrease was mainly due to a lower contribution to the revenue mix from the construction of transmission lines in Brazil, and thermosolar plants in Spain, which is an activity intensive in raw materials and due to a higher contribution to the revenue mix from concessions in Brazil and thermosolar plants.

Employee benefits expenses

        Employee benefits expenses increased by 15.5% to €391.2 million during the first half of 2013, from €338.7 million in the same eriod of 2012. This was due to an increase in employee headcount in the period, mainly due to a net increase in our construction operations. Employee benefit expenses also increased due to the entry in operations of solar plants in Spain and of the desalination plant in Qingdao (China) and due to an increase in our biofuels business in Brazil as the harvest campaign started approximately one month earlier than in the previous period.

Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges

        Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges increased by 57.0% to €238.1 million in the first half of 2013, from €151.7 million in the same period of 2012. Depreciation and amortization charges also increased as a percentage of revenue from 5.1% in the first six months of 2012 to 7.0% in the same period of 2013.

        The increase is mainly due to an increase in the depreciation and amortization in our Solar segment, mainly as a result of the beginning of the amortization of the solar plants in Spain that entered into operation in the second half of 2012 and first half of 2013 (Solaben 2 and Helios 2) and to the larger contribution of solar plants that entered into operation in the first half of 2012 (Helios 1 and Solaben 3). Depreciation and amortization also increased in other segments: increase in Cogeneration and other mainly attributable to Tabasco cogeneration plant, which entered into operations in the first quarter of 2013 and increase in Transmission lines mainly due to the Manaus transmission line in Brazil, which entered into operations in the first quarter of 2013.

        Other operating expenses increased by 10.8% to €537.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, from €484.9 million for the same period of 2012. This increase is primarily due to increases in operations across all of our activities, which has been partially offset by a decrease in "Other management expenses" and "Other external services". Part of our efforts in research and development are capitalized and then amortized over the useful life of the identified projects. Our total investment in R&D including both capitalized and expensed costs amounted to €38.3 million in the first half of 2013, which represents an increase of 32.5% with respect to the €28.9 million capitalized and expensed in the same period of 2012. As a percentage of revenue, other operating expenses decreased from 16.4% in the first half of 2012 to 15.8% for the comparable period of 2013.

Operating profit

        Operating profit increased by 19.3% to €292.5 million during the first half of 2013, from €245.3 million for the same period of 2012. Operating profit has also increased as a percentage of revenues, from 8.3% during the first half of 2012 to 8.6% during the first half of 2013, mainly due to the improvement in the raw materials and consumables used and other operating expenses as percentage of revenues, as explained above.

        Finance income decreased by 2.0% during the first half of 2013, from €44.8 million for the first six months of 2012 to €43.9 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower income from loans and debts from our short-term deposits in Brazil, which was partially offset by higher gains on cash-flow hedge interest-rate derivatives, mainly due to the increase in the time value of our interest rate options resulting from an increase in the expected future interest rates.

        Finance expenses increased slightly by 8.6% to €285.9 million for first half of 2013, from €263.3 million for the same period in 2012.

        The increase in finance expenses in the first six months of 2013, compared to the first six months of 2012, was mainly due to the increase in interest from other debts due to the convertible notes and ordinary notes issued during the first months of 2013 and to higher losses coming from interest rate derivatives hedging cash flows. Most of the losses from interest rate derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges correspond to interest rate swaps where the fixed rate payable is currently higher than the variable interest rate receivable referenced to Euribor. These swaps have an impact in our income statement when interest accrued in the hedged loan is recorded in the consolidated income statement. Losses from interest rate cash flow hedges were higher in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the same period of the previous year due a lower average level of Euribor during the first six months of 2013 compared to the average level of Euribor for the first six months of 2012.

In general, we use exchange rate derivatives to hedge our foreign exchange operations. As a result, and due to the application of hedge accounting, most of our exchange rate differences are offset by the effect of our cash-flow hedge derivatives.

        In the first half of 2013 Total other finance income increased to €104.1 million from €23.2 million mainly due to a gain of €94.5 million corresponding to the change in fair value of derivatives embedded in the convertible bonds issued, net of the change in fair value of call options on the Company's own shares. The change in fair value of both instruments is primarily due to the decrease in the Company's share price, which is a principal variable in the valuation of the embedded derivatives and the options. This income has been mainly caused by the decrease in fair value of the derivative embedded in the notes issued in January 2013, due to the decrease in fair value from the issuance date to June 30, 2013 amounting to €62.6 million.

Table of Contents

        Total other finance expense increased to €93.6 million during the first half of 2013 compared to €77.9 million for the same period of 2012. Expenses related to outsourcing of payables have increased period-over-period due to a larger volume of payables outsourced. We outsource the payment to suppliers through different financial institutions, which handle the administration of invoices payable and agree to settle them at predefined dates with our suppliers. We in turn settle the invoices directly with the financial institutions, generally 180 days after the invoice date, reporting the balance in accounts payable until paid. Suppliers have the option to anticipate the collection of their invoices to an earlier date from the financial institutions, which also charges the suppliers a discount fee. Commodity derivatives losses in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 correspond to the interruption of the hedging relationship, when the transaction hedged is no longer expected to occur, with no corresponding significant amount in the same period of 2012. In addition, other finance losses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 correspond primarily to bank fees and commissions, financial guarantees, letters of credit and costs related to wire transfers, as well as losses from partial repayment of the convertible notes due 2014.

Finance expense net

        Finance expense net decreased by 16.2% to €237.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, from €283.2 million for the same period of 2012. The decrease in finance expense net was attributable to the aforementioned changes in Finance income, Finance expense, Net exchange differences and Other net finance income/expenses.

Profit before income tax

        Profit before income tax increased from a loss of 24.1 M€ in the first half of 2012 to €48.7 million income in the same period of 2013. This increase was attributable to the aforementioned results of the period.

Income tax benefit/expense

        We had an income tax benefit of €35.2 million for the first six months of 2013, compared to an income tax benefit of €101.9 million in the same period of 2012. In the first six months of 2013 we had a net cash-in for income tax for an amount of €13.9 million, which resulted from a refund of amounts previously paid in excess in the Spanish tax group which offset amounts paid in other jurisdictions. In the same period of the previous year, the cash-in amounted to €4.1 million. Collections for Income tax in both periods are lower than income recorded because the subsidiaries within the consolidated group that generate profits usually generate income tax expenses and pay taxes whereas companies with negative taxable income recognize income tax benefit but they do not obtain a tax refund; instead, they generate tax loss carryforwards that can be offset in future periods. Different types of tax credits generate an income in the income tax expense calculation but they do not reduce the amount of income tax paid in the current period. Rather, they reduce the amount payable in the future.

        For the first six months of 2013, Income tax benefit corresponded primarily to the recognition of certain Spanish export tax incentives generated in the period related to the export of goods and services from Spain (€22.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and €21.5 million for the same period of the previous year) and tax benefits that the Company generated in the period from the application of a tax incentive for the transfer of the use of intangible assets, as specified in Article 23 of the revised text of the Spanish Income Tax Act (€3.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and €5.9 million for the same period of the previous year). This benefit results in a direct deduction from taxable income of 50% of the revenue generated from granting the use of the related intangible assets (i.e. licensing revenue, etc.). There were also differences in foreign tax rates related to companies based in jurisdictions with statutory tax rates different from Spanish statutory tax rate (€7.9 million of positive impact for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and €5.1 million in the same period of the previous year). Finally, we have recorded other non-taxable income and expense which include, among other things, income tax expenses corresponding to the previous period and permanent differences arising in other jurisdictions amounting to €17.5 million in the

six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and €32.5 million in the same period of the previous year. In addition, in 2012 we recorded a non-taxable income from the capital gain recognized after taking control of the Rioglass group (€25.6 million).

Profit/(loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax

        In the first six months of 2013, and according to IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, we present the results from Befesa, amounting to €(0.6) million loss net of tax as discontinued operations. In the same period of the previous year, and according to IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, we present the results from Befesa, amounting to €15.7 million profit net of tax as discontinued operations.

Profit attributable to non-controlling interests

        Profit attributable to non-controlling interests for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, amounting to €15.9 million, are in line with profit attributable to non-controlling interest in the same period of the previous year, which amounted to €17.6 million.

Profit attributable to the parent company

        Profit attributable to the parent company decreased by 10.6% to €67.3 million for the first half of 2013, compared to €75.3 million for the same period of 2012. This decrease was attributable to the results explained above.

Total comprehensive income

        Total comprehensive income increased from a negative amount of €(91.7) million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 to a positive amount of €36.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013.

        Other comprehensive income increased to €(53.7) million for first half of 2013, compared to €(176.4) million for the same period of 2012.

        In the first half of 2013, we recorded €83.3 million directly in equity corresponding to the change in fair value of cash flow hedges, mostly corresponding to interest rate derivatives. The impact was mainly due to long-term swaps maturing in 2020 and subsequent years, which are very sensitive to changes in interest rates and which have fixed rates payable that are lower than expected variable interest rate receivable (see Note 14 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and "—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk" for further information on hedging and derivatives). This effect was offset by negative translation differences recorded in equity which corresponds mainly to our subsidiaries with Brazilian real as their functional currency, which experienced a depreciation of 7% against the euro during the period.

        In the first half of 2012, we recorded €(128.2) million directly in equity corresponding to the change in fair value of cash flow hedges, mostly corresponding to interest rate derivatives. The impact was mainly due to long-term swaps maturing in 2020 and subsequent years, which are very sensitive to changes in interest rates and which have fixed rates payable that are higher than expected variable interest rate receivable. In addition, we recorded €(83.9) million translation differences in equity which corresponds mainly to our subsidiaries with Brazilian real as their functional currency, which experienced a depreciation of 8% against the euro during the period.

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011

Revenue

        Revenue decreased by 5.6%, to €6,312.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €6,689.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 would have been €6,295.8 million, representing a decrease of €393.4 million, or 5.9%, compared to the previous year. The decrease in consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 was primarily attributable to the decrease in revenue in our Engineering and Construction activity related to a significantly lower contribution from Engineering and Construction work in Spain of approximately €1,104.3 million, as a result of the general slow-down in the Spanish economy and also due to a decrease in revenue from the construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain, which represented revenue of approximately €638.0 million in 2012 compared to €843.3 million in 2011 (including the two segments of this activity, Engineering and Construction and Technology and Other). Revenue also decreased due to a lower revenue contribution in 2012 compared to 2011 from our engineering and construction activities related to our CSP project in Abu Dhabi and to our cogeneration plant project in Tabasco (Mexico), which totaled approximately a decrease of €220.2 million in 2012. On the other hand, within Engineering and Construction, revenues increased by €553.5 million due to the ongoing construction of thermo-solar plants in the United States (the 280 MW Solana solar plant in Arizona and the 280 MW Mojave solar plant in California), by €207.3 million due to the combined- cycle electricity power plant in Morelos, Mexico, and by €119.9 million due to the construction of power transmission lines in Latin America. The rest of our Engineering and Construction activity included in the Technology and Other line decreased due primarily to the lower construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain mentioned above, which was partially offset by the sale of solar components, such as technology and mirrors used in the construction of the U.S. solar plants, and to the full consolidation of the Rioglass plants after we assumed full control of the group, which represented an increase of €59.4 million.

        Revenue from our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity decreased by 10.7% mainly due to the deconsolidation of transmission line concessions in Brazil resulting from the application of IFRS 10 and 11. This effect was partially offset by an increase in our Solar segment, with a 114% increase due to additional MW of capacity entering into operation, due to the increase in revenue from new solar plants in Spain which entered into operations in 2012 (Solacor 1 and 2, Helios 1 and 2 and Solaben 2 and 3), as well as a larger contribution from the combined cycle Solar Power Plant One ("SPP1") in Hassi R'Mel (Algeria), which entered into operation in the third quarter of 2011.

        Revenue from our Industrial Production activity decreased during the year ended December 31, 2012 when compared to the previous year by 3.9% because of decreasing volumes sold during 2012 and a weakening of ethanol prices. Margins have decreased significantly in our biofuels segment due to an increase in corn prices and low ethanol prices. In order to preserve cash flows, we temporarily stopped production at two plants in the United States (Colwich and Portales). Other plants in the United States and in Spain have been temporarily stopped for the same reason, and for security improvements but are all currently operating. The net carrying amount of the two ethanol production facilities, Colwich and Portales, are $22.4 million and $24.9 million, respectively. Based on the tests performed, no impairment charges have been deemed necessary for any of these plants.

        Revenue from our international operations (all activities outside of Spain) increased by 13.3% to €5,373.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to the previous year. Our international operations accounted for 85.1% of revenue, with the Americas (Latin America and the United States) representing 64.8% of total revenue and the United States representing the largest geographic region with 32.9% of revenue.

        Spain.    Revenue decreased by 51.8% to €938.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €1,945.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to the significantly lower contribution from other Engineering and Construction work in Spain of €1,104.3 million, due to the general slowdown in the Spanish economy and to a lower activity of construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain, which had a significant impact in our business activity in the region. Revenue due to the construction of thermo-solar assets in Spain amounted to approximately €638.0 million in 2012 compared to €843.3 million in 2011. On the other hand, revenues from concession assets increased by €159.3 million, mostly from new solar plants in Spain which came into operation throughout 2012 (Solacor 1 and 2, Helios 1 and 2, and Solaben 2 and 3).

        United States.    Revenue increased by 54.4% to €2,078.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €1,346.0 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to the construction of the Solana and Mojave solar power plants, which began in the first and third quarters of 2011, respectively, and resulted in a €553.5 million increase year-over-year. Additionally, the increase was partially attributable to the increase in sales of solar components, such as technology and mirrors used in the construction of the US solar plants, which resulted in an increase of €45.0 million, and also due to the revenue contribution from the construction of the 200MW PV plant that we are building in the Imperial Valley of California, which resulted in a year-over-year increase of €30.0 million.

        Europe (excluding Spain).    Revenue increased by 20.6% to €877.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €727.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in ethanol sales throughout Europe of €50.4 million, as a result of expanded ethanol production capacity at the Rotterdam plant and the construction of a 450 MW combined cycle plant in Poland which accounted for an increase of €10.0 million.

        Latin America (excluding Brazil).    Revenue increased by 35.6% to €1,026.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €756.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to revenue from the construction of the combined-cycled electricity power plant in Morelos (Mexico).

        Brazil.    Revenue decreased by 33.0% to €986.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €1,471.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to the de-consolidation of several transmission lines in Brazil upon application of IFRS 10 and 11 (mainly the companies sold under the Cemig Sales) and to a lower level of construction of power transmission lines in Brazil when compared to the previous year.

        Other (remaining overseas markets).    Revenue decreased by 8.3% to €404.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €441.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in revenues was due the de-consolidation in 2012 of the desalination plant in Honaine (Algeria), as a result of the adoption of IFRS 10 and 11 as of January 1, 2012, which contributed to revenues in the last quarter of 2011.

        Other operating income decreased by 18.9% to €485.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €598.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. This decrease was mainly due to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 2011. Upon the prospective application of IFRIC 12, we derecognized, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, the thermo-solar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognized those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects". The difference of €165 million was recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment in "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. This effect was partially offset by an €85 million gain included in "Business combination of Rioglass Group" during the year ended December 31, 2012, where we have achieved control by increasing our ownership in stages. In addition, construction works performed for our own assets were higher in 2012 than in 2011. Finally, our subsidiary, Abengoa Bioenergy U.S. Holding, recorded an income of €26 million during the last quarter of 2012 corresponding to a collection from Chicago Title Insurance Company after a favorable and final jury verdict in a litigation process against that company. Grants decreased mainly due to a €50 million amount corresponding to DAEX tax deduction recorded in 2011 with no corresponding amount in 2012 (see Note 24.2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail). Income from various services in 2012 primarily includes profits generated by the sale of the second 50% of the shareholding of STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III amounting €4.5 million and other minor income. In 2011 it primarily includes profits generated by the sale of 50% of the Brazilian transmission line amounting to €45 million.

Raw materials consumed

        Raw materials consumed decreased by 8.9% to €4,241.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €4,656.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to the decrease in revenue in our three activities. Raw materials consumed decreased as a percentage of revenue from 69.6% for the year ended

130


Table of Contents

December 31, 2011 to 67.2% for the year ended December 31, 2012. This decrease was due to lower levels of operations in our Biofuels segment, which activity declined as a result of the increase in raw materials costs.

Employee benefits expenses

        Employee benefit expenses increased by 16.2% to €709.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €610.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. This was due to an increase in employee headcount (excluding the effect of the sale of Telvent) with significant growth largely attributable to our construction operations. In addition, the commencement of operations of the new solar plants in Spain which came into operation during 2012 (Solacor 1 and 2, Helios 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3), and the combined cycle SPP1 plant in Algeria which entered into operation in the third quarter of 2011 have also increased our employee benefits expenses in our Solar segment.

        Employee benefit expenses have increased as a percentage of revenue, standing at 11.2% for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to 9.1% in the same period of 2011.

Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges

        Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges increased by 83.0% to €422.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €230.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Depreciation and amortization charges also increased as a percentage of revenue from 3.4% in 2011 to 6.7% in 2012. The increase is mainly due to a large amount of amortization and depreciation in our Solar segment amounting to €68.0 million, mainly as a result of the beginning of the amortization of the solar plants in Spain that entered into operation in 2012 (Solacor 1 and 2, Helios 1 and 2 and Solaben 2 and 3). In addition, our depreciation expenses also increased by €28.3 million in our biofuels business in Brazil due to an increase in our property plant and equipment resulting from an investment in new machinery. The increase was also due to the full consolidation of the Rioglass Group plants after we assumed full control and to the amortization of intangibles assets identified in this business combination which represented an increase of €18.9 million. In addition, in 2011 we recorded a reversal of an impairment for €42 million recognized in prior years on the lands acquired in the United States in connection with the Mojave Solar project once we obtained a Conditional Commitment to issue a Federal Guarantee from the Department of Energy with no similar movement in 2012 (see Note 9 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements). Additionally, the year-over-year increase was partially attributable to the increase in capitalized development costs amortization of €20.7 million.

        Other operating expenses decreased by 0.5% to €917,4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €922.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in independent professional services and in research and development expenses. Part of our efforts in research and development are capitalized and then amortized over the useful life of the identified projects. Our total investment in R&D including both capitalized and expensed costs amounted to €91.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, which represents an increase of 0.8% with respect to the €90.6 million capitalized and expensed in the year ended December 31, 2011. In addition, supplies also contributed to the decrease due to the decrease in operations across our activities in 2012. On the other hand, these decreases were partially offset by higher expenses in leases and fees, transportation and other external services. As a percentage of revenue, other operating expenses increased from 13.8% for the year ended December 31, 2011 to 14.5% for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Operating profit

        Operating profit decreased by 43.5% to €526.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €932.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Operating profit has decreased as a percentage of revenues, from 13.9% during fiscal year 2011 to 8.3% during fiscal year 2012. The decrease in operating profit for the fiscal year 2012, compared to 2011, was mostly due to the decline in other the operating income discussed above and a decrease in operating margins in our Biofuels segment due to extremely adverse market conditions as well as due to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011, explained above.

        Finance expenses decreased by 5.0% to €544.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €573.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.

        Finance expenses decreased in the year ended December 31, 2012 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, as an increase in interest from other debts was offset by a decrease in losses from interest rate derivatives and a decrease in interest from loans with credit entities. Interest from other debts increased mainly due to a larger volume in our non-recourse factoring arrangements. Amounts outstanding from non-recourse financing have been higher during the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, but capitalized interest has also been higher, as non-recourse financing increased primarily to finance projects under construction and interest expenses are capitalized during the construction period. Finally, losses from interest rate derivatives were higher in the year 2011 than in 2012.

        Losses from cash flow hedge interest-rate derivatives for the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are due to transfers from equity to financial expense when the hedged item is impacting the consolidated income statement (€75.7 million and €49.8 million, respectively) and to a decrease in time value of the interest rate options (€24.2 million and €64.3 million, respectively). In order to hedge our long term debt, some of the interest rate options contracted have long term maturities, which cause their time value to be

133


Table of Contents

considerably sensitive to changes in interest rates. Transfers from equity to finance expense have resulted in a loss during the period because most of the interest rate options have a strike price higher than current variable interest rates. Similarly, most of our swaps have a fixed rate higher than current variable interest rates.

        Net exchange differences increased to a net foreign exchange loss of €35.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from a net foreign exchange loss of €28.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. In general, we use exchange rate derivatives to hedge our foreign exchange operations. As a result, most of our exchange rate differences are offset by the effect of our cash-flow hedge derivatives. The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2012 was mainly due to a loss from exchange rate derivatives recorded as a result of discontinuing a hedge relationship when the hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, and to inefficiencies in different hedges generating exchange rate differences that have not been perfectly offset with the differences generated by the hedged item.

        Net exchange differences that subsist for the year ended December 31, 2011 are primarily due to the negative impact of foreign exchange transactions, for an amount of €32.3 million, due to the unfavorable evolution of the Brazilian real-U.S. Dollar exchange rate related to the U.S. Dollar-denominated debt financings of our Brazilian subsidiaries. The U.S. Dollar-denominated debt of our Brazilian subsidiaries outstanding as of December 31, 2011 amounts to €229.9 million. The Company hedged €68.1 million with derivative instruments as of December 31, 2011.

        Other net finance expense decreased to €158.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €170.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.

        In the year ended December 31, 2012, "Total other finance income" decreased to €27.4 million from €28.9 million mainly due to a decrease in 2012 in other finance income, which corresponds mainly to interest from deposits and cash and cash equivalents in both periods, due to a lower volume of deposits. This decrease was partially offset by a gain of €9.2 million corresponding to the change in fair value of derivatives embedded in the convertible bonds issued, net of the change in fair value of call options on the Company's own shares. The change in fair value of both instruments is primarily due to the decrease in the Company's share price, which is a principal variable in the valuation of the embedded derivatives and the options. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the net effect of the change in fair value of derivatives embedded in the convertible bonds issued and the change in fair value of call options on the Company's own shares resulted in a net loss of €29.7 million classified in Other finance expense.

        Other finance expense decreased to €185.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 from €199.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, mainly due to a decrease in other finance expenses, which correspond to bank fees and commissions, financial guarantees, letters of credit and costs related to wire transfers and a decrease of the net effect of changes in fair value of the derivatives embedded in the convertible notes and options over our own shares explained above. Expenses related to outsourcing of payables have increased in the year ended December 31, 2012 in comparison to the previous year due to a larger volume of payables outsourced during the period. We outsource the payment to suppliers through different financial institutions, which handle the administration of invoices payable and agree to settle them at predefined dates with our suppliers. We in turn settle the invoices directly with the financial institutions, generally 180 days after the invoice date, reporting the balance in accounts payable until paid. Suppliers have the option to anticipate the collection of their invoices to an earlier date from the financial institutions, which also charges the suppliers a discount fee. Finally, commodity derivatives losses correspond to the interruption of the hedging relationship, when the transaction hedged is no longer expected to occur, for both periods.

Finance expense net

        Finance expense net decreased by 1.8% to €654.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €666.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in finance expense net was attributable to the aforementioned change in Finance income, Finance expense, Net exchange differences and Other net finance income/expenses.

Profit before income tax

        Profit before income tax decreased by 141.0% period-over-period to a loss of €110.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to €269.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. This decrease was attributable to the aforementioned results of the period.

Income tax benefit/expense

        We had an income tax benefit of €171.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to an income tax expense of €3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, although we actually paid income tax for an amount of €35.7 million in 2012 and €67.6 million in 2011. The subsidiaries within the consolidated group that generate profits usually generate income tax expenses and pay taxes whereas companies with negative taxable income recognize income tax benefit but they do not obtain a tax refund; instead, they generate tax loss carryforwards that can be offset in future periods. Different types of tax credits generate an income in the income tax expense calculation but they do not reduce the amount of income tax paid in the current period. Rather, they reduce the amount payable in the future.

        For the year ended December 31, 2012, Income tax benefit corresponded primarily to the recognition of certain Spanish export tax incentives generated in the period related to the export of goods and services from Spain (€20.2 million) and tax benefits that the Company generated in the period from the application of a tax incentive for the transfer of the use of intangible assets, as specified in Article 23 of the Revised Text of the Spanish Corporate Income Tax Act (€13.1 million). This benefit results in a direct deduction from taxable income of 50% of the revenue generated from granting the use of the related intangible assets (i.e. licensing revenue, etc.). We have also recorded deferred tax assets for tax loss carryforwards generated in prior years in other tax jurisdictions for €21.6 million and for deductions in the amount of €8.4 million. In addition, there was a significant positive impact on income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012 caused by non-taxable income from the capital gain recognized after taking control of the Rioglass group (€25.6 million) and there were also differences in foreign tax rates related to companies based in jurisdictions with statutory tax rates different from Spanish statutory tax rate (€11.1 million of positive impact). Finally, we have recorded other non-taxable income and expense which include, among other things, income tax expenses corresponding to the previous period and permanent differences arising in other jurisdictions as a result of the re-evaluation of assets and liabilities.

Profit from discontinued operations, net of tax

        The decrease in Profit from discontinued operations, net of tax from €129.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 to €32.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 is due to the fact that in 2011, this line includes the results of Telvent until the sale of this company and the gain obtained in the sale (for a total amount of €91.5 million) and the results of Befesa (amounting to €37.6 million) while in 2012 this line includes only the results of Befesa until its sale, amounting to €32.5 million.

Profit attributable to non-controlling interests

        Profit attributable to non-controlling interests increased to €38.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €21.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is mainly due to the positive net income of the Rioglass Group that we have started to fully consolidate after taking control of

136


Table of Contents

Rioglass and to the net income of several engineering and construction companies in Brazil in which we hold a 51% interest.

Profit attributable to the parent company

        Profit attributable to the parent company decreased by 85.2% to €55.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to €374.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. This decrease was attributable to the results explained above.

Total comprehensive income

        Total comprehensive income decreased to €(263.3) million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to €74.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to the decrease of Profit attributable to the parent company explained above and to the decrease in Other comprehensive income.

        Other comprehensive income decreased by 11.4% to €(357.3) million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to €(320.7) million for the year ended December 31, 2011. These amounts are significantly lower than Profit attributable to the parent company for each period mainly due to the impact of change in fair value of cash flow hedges and Currency translation differences recognized directly in Equity in both periods, as disclosed in our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements (see our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income on page F-7).

        In the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded €(237.8) million directly in equity corresponding to change in fair value of cash flow hedges. Of this amount, €(183.1) million corresponds to interest rate derivatives, mainly interest rate swaps. These losses are principally related to long-term swaps maturing in 2020 and subsequent years, which are very sensitive to changes in interest rates and which have fixed rates payable that are higher than current variable interest rate receivable. The rest of the impact of cash flow hedges recorded in equity corresponds mainly to derivatives on commodities, for an amount of €(46.2) million during the period, mostly related to derivatives on grain in our Biofuels segment. For both types of derivatives, these effects have been partially offset by the amounts transferred to income statements during the period once the hedged items impact the income statement, for a total amount of €96.2 million (see Note 14 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and "—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk" for further information on hedging and derivatives). In addition, during the year 2012 we have also recorded €(256.3) million of translation differences in equity, which corresponds mainly to our subsidiaries with Brazilian real as their functional currency, which has experienced a depreciation of 11% against the euro during the year.

        In the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded €(123.8) million directly in equity corresponding to change in fair value of cash flow hedges. Of this amount, €(217.5) million correspond to interest rate derivatives, mainly interest rate swaps. Similarly to the year 2012, these losses were principally related to long-term swaps maturing in 2020 and subsequent years, which are very sensitive to changes in interest rates and which have fixed rates payable higher than their current variable interest rate receivable. This effect was partially offset by a positive amount of €101.2 million recorded directly in equity corresponding to the change in fair value of derivatives on commodities, related to derivatives over grain in our Biofuels segment and other commodities. We also had a minor impact corresponding to foreign exchange forwards. In addition, during the year 2011 we recorded €(239.9) million of translation differences in equity, which correspond mainly to our subsidiaries with Brazilian real as their functional currency, which experienced a depreciation of 8% against the euro during the year.

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010

Revenue

        Revenue increased by 53.4% to €6,689.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €4,360.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011 would have been €6,745.9 million, representing an increase of €2,385.9 million, or 54.7%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in revenues was largely attributable the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011. Upon prospective application of IFRIC 12, we derecognized, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, the thermo-solar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognized those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects." The difference was recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment in "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. From January 1, 2011, the remaining contract revenue and margins for the ongoing construction of the plants (which previously was eliminated in consolidation) began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11, which had an impact in revenues related to thermo-solar assets in Spain for the fiscal year 2011 of €843.3 million, with no impact in the fiscal year 2010. The increase in revenue was also attributable to increased business in our Engineering and Construction activity, and the commencement of construction and completion of various projects (Solana and the CSP plant in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates), power transmission lines in Latin America and the co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico)), along with the contribution for the entire period from assets in the Concession-Type Infrastructures activity that entered into operation through 2010 (Solnova 1, Solnova 3, Solnova 4, three thermal solar plants in Spain of 50 MW each) and, in the Industrial Production segment, a full year of operations of the ethanol plants located in Rotterdam (the Netherlands) and Indiana and Illinois (both the United States). In addition, revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased due to an increase in ethanol volumes sold in the Biofuels segment, due to expanded capacity in the United States and Europe (new plants entering into operation throughout 2010 in Rotterdam (the Netherlands), and Indiana and Illinois (both the United States). Finally, the impact of foreign exchange of €56.7 million resulted mostly from the net effect of depreciation of the Brazilian real with respect to the euro and the appreciation of the U.S. Dollar with respect to the euro in 2011, compared to 2010.

        Our commitment to geographic diversification remains one of the key factors behind our continued growth in revenue during the year ended December 31, 2011. Revenue from our international operations (all activities outside of Spain) increased by 44.1% to €4,743.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to the same period in the previous year. Our international operations accounted for 71% of revenue, with the Americas (Latin America and the United States) representing 53% of total sales and Brazil representing the largest geographic region (outside of Spain) with 22% of revenue.

        Spain.    Revenue increased by 82.2% to €1,945.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €1,068.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in revenue was due to the application from January 1, 2011 of IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar plants in Spain (with an impact of €843.3 million) the impact of a full year of operations of the Solnova 1, Solnova 3 and Solnova 4 solar power plants (which entered in operation into the second and third quarters of 2010), as well as the increased volumes of industrial waste treated and increases in ethanol and biodiesel prices during the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to the year ended December 31, 2010.

        United States.    Revenue increased by 127.6% to €1,346.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €591.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to the commencement of operations of the new bioethanol plants in Indiana and Illinois (both the United States), during the first quarter of 2010, and revenue recognized under service concession agreements related to the construction of the Solana solar power plant, which began in the first quarter of 2011.

        Europe (excluding Spain).    Revenue increased by 48.5% to €727.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €489.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to ethanol sales throughout Europe, as a result of expanded ethanol production capacity due to the entry into production of the Rotterdam plant in the third quarter of 2010.

        Latin America (excluding Brazil).    Revenue decreased by 2.9% to €756.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €779.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The variation in revenue was primarily attributable to decreased revenue recognized under service concession agreements related to decreased construction activity of power transmission lines in Peru due to the partial entry into operation of ATN, a 572 km power transmission line, partially offset by the continued construction according to schedule of a 300 MW co-generation plant and 45 km power transmission line in Tabasco (Mexico).

        Brazil.    Revenue increased by 39.8% to €1,471.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €1,052.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to increased revenue recognized under service concession agreements related to significant progress on the construction of power transmission lines in Brazil, including the Manaus, Linha Verde and the Norte Brasil projects. Also contributing to the increase in revenue was the commencement of operations of the two co-generation plants in São Paulo (Brazil) in the third quarter of 2010 and the ATE IV-VII power transmission lines in the second quarter of 2010.

        Other (remaining overseas markets).    Revenue increased by 16.5% to €441.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €378.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.

        Other operating income decreased by 20.4% to €598.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €751.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. This decrease was mainly due to a lower amount of costs capitalized during the construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain, due to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011. Upon prospective application of IFRIC 12, the remaining contract revenue and margins as of that date for the ongoing construction of the thermo-solar plants in Spain began to be recognized based on the percentage of completion accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11. This new accounting method resulted in an increase of revenues in our Engineering and Construction activity for the fiscal year 2011 and a corresponding decrease in Other Operating income — Work performed by the entity and capitalized. In addition, upon prospective application of IFRIC 12, we derecognized, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, the thermo-solar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognized those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects." The difference, amounting to €165 million, was recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment in "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011, which partially offset the decrease mentioned above. In addition, we recorded income from export activity deductions amounting to €50.0 million, in cases where these investment tax credits are considered grants under IAS 20. Additionally, a €45 million gain has been included in "Income from various services" arising from the sale of the 50% shares in companies STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III, and 100% in NTE, all of them transmission power line concessions in Brazil.

Raw materials consumed

        Raw materials consumed increased by 43% to €4,656.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €3,257.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in raw materials and consumables used was primarily attributable to the continued growth of our operations, as well as the commencement of operations of certain projects, including the ethanol plants in Rotterdam (the Netherlands), Indiana and Illinois (both in the United States) and the ISCC plant in Hassi R'Mel (Algeria), and the construction/execution on concessional assets including power transmission lines in Brazil and Peru and the construction of a 300 MW co-generation plant and 45 km power transmission line in Tabasco (Mexico).

Employee benefits expenses

        Employee benefit expenses increased by 20.2% to €610.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from €507.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. This was primarily due to an increase in employee headcount across all three activities with significant growth largely attributable to increased construction operations, the commencement of operations of ethanol plants in Indiana and Illinois (both the United States) and Rotterdam (the Netherlands), as well as four solar power plants in Spain (Solnova 1, Solnova 3, Solnova 4 and Helioenergy 1) and an ISCC plant in Hassi R'Mel (Algeria) all becoming operational. As a percentage of revenue, employee benefit expenses declined from 11.6% to 9.1% for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively, mainly due to larger contributions to revenues from Biofuels, which has a lower proportion of personnel expenses with respect to other segments, and to the fact that we

140

carried out more work through subcontractors in our Engineering and Construction activity, which in turn increased the independent professional services expenses as a percentage of revenues.

Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges

        Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges increased slightly by 0.8% to €230.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €228.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The net change is due to the increase in depreciation and amortization, primarily attributable to the commencement of operations of the Solnova 1, Solnova 3 and Solnova 4 solar power plants, our ethanol plant in Rotterdam, our co-generation plants in Brazil and the ATE IV, V, VI and VII power transmission lines in Brazil, partially offset by the decrease for reversal of impairment on the Mojave project and the Cemig Sales.

        Other operating expenses increased by 39.2% to €922.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €662.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to increases in independent professional services and other external services, supplies related to the continued growth of our operations, as well as increased construction activity and the commencement of operations of certain projects included mostly in the Solar segment of our Concessions-Type Infrastructure activity.

        As a percentage of revenue, Other operating expenses decreased from 15.2% in 2010 to 13.8% in 2011. However, independent professional services increased mainly due to the fact that we did more work through subcontractors in our Engineering and Construction activity, especially in the construction of the bioethanol plant in Hugoton, Kansas and the Mojave Solar plant in California (both in the United States) and in projects in Chile and Mexico.

Operating profit

        Operating profit increased by 94.5% to €932.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €479.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase was primarily attributable to the application of IFRIC 12 discussed above, additional capacity entering into operation and full contribution from assets that came online in prior periods across our Industrial Production and Concession-Type Infrastructures activities. Operating margin for the year 2011 increased to 13.9% from 11.0% in 2010 due to

        Finance expenses increased by 56.0% to €573.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €368.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in finance expenses was primarily due to interest expense payable on a higher average amount of indebtedness during the year ended December 31, 2011 and interest expense accrued on debt from project companies entering into operation during 2011, as interest expenses is capitalized during the construction period. The main non-recourse projects that entered into operation during the year 2011 were Helioenergy 1 solar thermal plant in Spain (with €78 million debt as of December 31, 2011), Solar Power Plant One ("SPP1") in Algeria (with €244 million debt as of December 31, 2011), the desalination plant in Honaine (Algeria) (with €155 million debt as of December 31, 2011) and the ATN power transmission lines in Peru (with €54 million debt as of December 31, 2011). All these projects were in construction as of December 31, 2010, so their interest expenses during 2010 were capitalized.

        On the other hand, losses from interest-rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, for an amount of €131.7 million are due to transfers from equity to financial expense when the hedged item is impacting the consolidated income statement (€67.5 million) and to a decrease in time value of the interest rate options (€64.3 million). In order to hedge our long term debt, some of the interest rate options contracted have long term maturities, which causes their time value to be considerably sensitive to changes in interest rates. In the year ended December 31, 2011, losses from interest rate cash flow hedges include a loss of €64.3 million resulting from a decrease in time value of the interest rate options, mainly due to a significant decrease in the swap curve during the period. Transfers from equity to finance expense have also resulted in a loss during the period because most of the interest rate options have a strike higher than current variable interest rates. Similarly, most of our swaps have a fixed rate higher than current variable interest rates. Contracted fixed rates are disclosed under "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk — Market Risk — Interest Rate Risk." On the other hand, decreases in variable interest rates have resulted in lower interest expenses accrued by our financing, which offsets the negative impact of our derivatives.

Net exchange differences

        The following table below sets forth our exchange differences for the year ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

        Negative net exchange differences increased to a €28.1 million loss for the year ended December 31, 2011, from a €18.3 million loss for the year ended December 31, 2010. In general, as discussed in — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk" we use exchange rate derivatives to hedge our foreign exchange operations. As a result, most of our exchange rate differences are offset by the effect of our cash-flow hedge derivatives. Net exchange differences that subsist for the year ended December 31, 2011 are primarily due to the negative impact of foreign exchange transactions, for an amount of €32.3 million, due to the unfavorable evolution of the Brazilian real-U.S. Dollar exchange rate related to the U.S. Dollar-denominated debt financings of our Brazilian subsidiaries. The U.S. Dollar denominated debt of the Brazilian subsidiaries outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 amounts to €229.9 million and €340.3 million, respectively. We have hedged €68.1 million and €136.8 million with derivative instruments as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

        Net losses from foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges, for an amount of €5.4 million, are primarily related to foreign exchange forward purchase contracts designated by subsidiaries whose functional currency is the euro as cash flow hedges of purchases denominated in U.S. Dollar.

        Other net finance expense increased to €170.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €17.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.

        Total other finance income decreased to €28.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2011 from €59.7 million in the previous year mainly due to the impact of the change in fair value of the derivatives embedded in our convertible bonds, net of the change in fair value of options over our own shares assigned for hedging purposes. The net effect resulted in a net loss of €29.7 million classified in "Other finance expense" compared to a net gain for an amount of €42.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 classified in "Other finance income", mainly due to the decrease in our share price, which represents a key variable in the valuation of the derivatives and the call options. Other finance income of €23.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 corresponds mainly to interest from deposits and cash and cash equivalents, which have increased year over year.

        Other finance expense increased to €199.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2011 from €77.4 million in the previous year partially due to an increase in the cost of outsourcing payments, caused by a larger volume of payables outsourced during the year. We outsource the payment to suppliers through different financial institutions, which handle the administration of invoices payable and agree to settle them at predefined dates with our suppliers. Abengoa in turn settles directly the invoices with the financial institutions, generally 180 days after the invoice date, reporting the balance in accounts payable until paid. Suppliers have the option to anticipate the collection of their invoices at an earlier date from the financial institutions, which also charges them a discount fee. In addition, Other finance expense also increased due to the change in change in fair value of the derivatives embedded in the convertible bonds, net of the change in fair value of options over our own shares explained above. Finally, other finance expenses of €84.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 correspond primarily to bank fees and commissions, financial guarantees, letters of credit and costs related to wire transfers, as well as the cost of outsourcing payments to suppliers and they increased mainly due to an increase in all the types of expenses resulting from a general increase in the activity in 2011.

Finance expense net

        Finance expense net increased by 105.8% to €666.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €324.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in finance expense net was attributable to the aforementioned changes in finance income, finance expense, net exchange differences and other net finance income/expenses.

Profit before income tax

        Profit before income tax increased by 64.4% between the periods to €269.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to €164.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase was attributable to the aforementioned results for the period.

Income tax benefit/expense

        We had an income tax expense of €3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to income tax benefit of €17.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 (although the amount of income tax actually paid increased from €36.2 million in 2010 to €67.6 million in 2011). As discussed above, the subsidiaries within the consolidated group that generate profits usually generate income tax expenses and pay taxes whereas companies with negative taxable income recognize income tax benefit but they do not obtain a tax refund; instead, they generate tax loss carryforwards that can be offset in future periods. Different types of tax credits generate an income in the income tax expense calculation but they do not reduce the amount of income tax paid in the current period, they will reduce the amount payable in the future.

        The fluctuation in income tax benefit was mainly attributable to the deduction originated by the recognition of certain Spanish export tax incentives generated in the period related to the export of goods and services from Spain, due to our increased export activity, mainly to Latin America, for an amount of €34.3 million in 2011, compared to €28.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The application of these Spanish tax incentives is expected to be recurring in the coming years since we expect to continue to perform these export activities in the future.

        Additionally, the tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2011 is also due to the recognition of overseas investment tax incentives provided under Article 37 of the Revised Text of the Spanish Corporate Income Tax Act (DAEX) which resulted in the recognition a tax benefit of €29.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to €17.4 million for the previous year. The percentage of this tax credit, which was initially set at 25% of the amount invested, has been progressively reduced since 2007 to reach 3% in 2010 and 0% in 2011. As such, the amount recognized in 2011 corresponds to tax credits generated in prior periods. We have recognized this tax credit after updating the forecasts used for the valuation of our deferred tax assets due to a regulatory change that increased the limit for applying these credits from 50% to 60% of the income tax payable. We also took into account the fact that an income tax audit by the Spanish tax authorities of the Spanish tax group for the periods 2005 to 2008 finalized on January 26, 2012 with favourable results for the Company with respect to the application of this tax credit. As of December 31, 2011, we have recognized the full amount of DAEX generated through 2010. The amount of deferred tax assets recognized for this credit totalled €259.7 million as of December 31, 2011.

        Lastly, the income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2011 is also due to the application of the tax incentive generated in the period for the transfer of the use of intangible assets governed by article 23 of the Revised Text of the Spanish Income Tax Act, which totalled €12.4 million in 2011 compared to €25.7 million in 2010.

Profit from discontinued operations, net of tax

        Profit from discontinued operations, net of tax, increased by 57.5% to €129.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to €81.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase is primarily due to the gain realized on the sale of Telvent which amounted, together with the results generated by Telvent until the moment of its sale, to €91.5 million. The results of Befesa amounted to €37.6 million and €34.0 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Profit attributable to non-controlling interests from continuing operations

        Profit attributable to non-controlling interests decreased by 65.3% to €18.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €53.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease is primarily the result of the sale of our 40% stake in Telvent.

Profit attributable to the parent company

        Profit attributable to the parent company increased by 80.6% to €374.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to €207.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase was attributable to the aforementioned results for the period.

Other comprehensive income

        Total comprehensive income decreased to €74.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to €487.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 due to the decrease in Other comprehensive income.

        Other comprehensive income decreased to €(320.7) million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to €224.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 (see our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income on page F-7).

        In the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded €(123.8) million directly in equity corresponding to the change in fair value of cash flow hedges. Of this amount, €(217.5) million corresponds to interest rate derivatives, mainly interest rate swaps. Similarly to the year 2012, these losses were mainly related to long-term swaps maturing in 2020 and subsequent years, which are very sensitive to changes in interest rates and which have fixed rates payable that are higher than current variable interest rate receivable. This effect was partially offset by a positive amount of €101.2 million recorded directly in equity corresponding to the change in fair value of derivatives on commodities, related to derivatives over grain in our Biofuels segment and other commodities. We also had a minor impact corresponding to foreign exchange forwards (see Note 14 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and "—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk" for further information on hedging and derivatives). In addition, during the year 2011 we also recorded €(239.9) million of translation differences in equity, which corresponds mainly to our subsidiaries with Brazilian real as their functional currency, which experienced a depreciation of 8% against the euro during the year.

        In the year ended December 31, 2010, we recorded €(86.0) million directly in equity corresponding to change in fair value of cash flow hedges, mainly related to interest rate derivatives. Similarly to the year 2011, these losses were mostly related to long-term swaps maturing in 2020 and subsequent years, which are very sensitive to changes in interest rates and which have fixed rates payable higher than current variable interest rate receivable. This effect has been partially offset by the amounts transferred to income statements during the period once the hedged items have an impact in the income statement, for a total amount of €35.7 million. In addition, during the year 2010 we recorded €244.0 million of translation differences in equity, which corresponds to our subsidiaries with Brazilian real as their functional currency, which experienced an appreciation of 13% against the euro during the year and to our subsidiaries with the U.S. Dollar as their functional currency, which experienced an appreciation of 9% against the euro during the year.

Segment Reporting

        We organize our business into the following three activities — Engineering and Construction, Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production, which in turn comprise seven operating segments:

    Engineering and Construction:  relates to our traditional engineering activities in the energy and water sectors, with more than 70 years of experience in the market as well as the development of solar technology.

        This activity comprises two operating segments:

      Engineering and Construction — Abengoa is specialized in carrying out complex turn-key projects for thermosolar plants, solar-gas hybrid plants, conventional generation plants, biofuels plants and water infrastructures, as well as large-scale desalination plants and transmission lines, among others; and

      Technology and Other — This segment includes those activities related to the development of thermo-solar technology, water management technology and innovative technology businesses such as hydrogen energy or the management of energy crops.

    Concession-Type Infrastructures:  groups together the company's proprietary concession assets that generate revenues governed by long term sales agreements, such as take-or-pay contracts, tariff contracts or power purchase agreements. This activity includes the operation of electric (solar, generation or wind) energy generation plants and transmission lines. These assets generate low demand risk and we focus on operating them as efficiently as possible.

        This activity is currently composed of four operating segments:

      Solar — Operation and maintenance of solar energy plants, mainly using solar-thermal technology;

      Transmission — Operation and maintenance of high-voltage transmission power line infrastructures;

      Water — Operation and maintenance of facilities aimed at generating, transporting, treating and managing potable water, including desalination and water treatment and purification plants; and

      Co-generation — Operation and maintenance of conventional electricity plants.

    Industrial Production:  covers Abengoa's businesses with a high commodity component, our biofuels business. The company holds an important leadership position in this activity in the geographical markets in which it operates. In biofuels, we are engaged in the production and development of biofuels, mainly bioethanol for transport, which uses cereals, sugar cane and oil seeds (soya, rape and palm) as raw materials.

        Engineering and Construction.    Revenue increased by 17.3% to €2,181.5 million for the first six months of 2013, from €1,859.0 million for the first six months of 2012. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to the revenue growth of the two segments of this activity.

    Engineering and Construction:  Revenue increased by 16.4% to €1,995.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €1,714.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 would have been €2,061.5 million, representing an increase of €346.9 million, or 20%, compared to the previous period. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to the ongoing construction of a thermo-solar plant in the United States (the 280 MW Mojave solar plant in California), due to the construction of thermo-solar plants in South Africa (a 100 MW CSP plant and a 50 MW Solar Tower-technology CSP plant), due to the revenue contribution from the construction of the 200MW PV plant that we are building in the Imperial Valley of California, and the construction of a 450 MW combined cycle plant in Poland. These effects were partially offset by a lower activity of construction of transmission lines in Brazil, given that 2012 was a year of very high execution with large projects such as Norte Brazil and Manaus, together with lower contribution of the Solana 280 MW solar plant in Arizona and lower revenues from the construction of thermosolar plants in Spain.

    Technology and Other:  Revenue increased by 28.7% to €185.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €144.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 would have been €187.2 million, representing an increase of €42.7 million, or 30%, compared to the previous period. The increase in revenues was mainly due to the sale of solar components, such as technology and mirrors used in the construction of solar plants in Spain and in the construction of the US solar plants, and the sale of water technology components used in the construction of the desalinations plants in Tenes (Algeria) and in Nungua (Ghana).

        Concession-Type Infrastructures.    Revenue increased by 30.6% to €236.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €181.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Our concession business has continued its growth due to new assets entering into operation and a strong performance of assets already in operation.

    Solar:  Revenue increased by 10.4% to €134.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €121.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 would have been €135.6 million, representing an increase of €13.8 million, or 11%, compared to the previous period. The increase was mainly attributable to solar plants in Spain which entered in operation during the second half of 2012 (Solaben 2 and Helios 2) and to the larger contribution of solar plants that entered in operation in the first half of 2012 (Helios 1 and Solaben 3). As a result, the average capacity in terms of installed MW available throughout the period increased by 200 MW. These four 50MW CSP plants in Spain entered into operation throughout 2012 and therefore made no contribution to the previous period's results. This resulted in a net electricity production of 489.4 GWh for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 413.4 GWh produced during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

    Transmission:  Revenue increased by 84.6% to €32.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €17.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 would have been €37.4 million, representing an increase of €19.7 million, or 111%, compared to the previous period. The increase was primarily attributable to the entry into operation in the first quarter of 2013 of the power transmission lines in Manaus which cover 586 km.

      During both periods, we were able to maintain high levels of availability (a determining factor for the Transmission segment's revenue generation), above 99% during both periods, in line with availability levels for previous years.

    Co-generation:  Revenue increased by 58.9% to €48.6 million for the first six months ended June 30, 2013, from €30.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 would have been €48.8 million, representing an increase of €18.3 million, or 60%, compared to the previous period. This increase was mainly due to the entry into operation in the first quarter of 2013 of a co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico) of 300 MW.

    Water:  Revenue increased by 89.2% to €20.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 would have been €21.2 million, representing an increase of €10.2 million, 94%, compared to the previous period. This increase was mainly due to the entry into operation in the first quarter of 2013 of a desalination plant in Qingdao (China) of 100,000 m3/day.

        Industrial Production:    Revenue increased by 7.8% to €984.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €913.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

    Biofuels:  Revenue increased by 7.8% to €984.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €913.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 would have been €997.4 million, representing an increase of €84.2 million, or 9%, compared to the previous period. This increase was mainly due to the a general increase in ethanol prices in United States and Europe during the period, which resulted in a total positive impact on revenues of €95.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013. This positive effect was partially offset by the reduction of volumes sold of ethanol in the six months ended June 30, 2013, with 964 MI, compared to the same period of the previous year, with 1,085 Ml, with a total negative impact on revenues of €24.1 million. The business recorded during the period an average

      plant utilization of 80%, compared to 85% during the same period in 2012. As of June 30, 2013, all of our plants were in operation.

      Sugar sales, an important part of the Brazilian business, recorded an increase as the harvest campaign started approximately one month earlier than in the previous year, with 148 ktn sold during the six months ended June 30, 2012 from 27 ktn sold during the same period of the prior year with an impact on revenues in the amount of €55.1 million. This positive effect was partially offset by the reduction of the average sugar prices (the NY11 sugar average quote, as a reference, declined from an average of 22.9 c$/lb for the first six months ended June 30, 2011, to an average 17.8 c$/lb for the first six months ended June 30, 2012).

Consolidated EBITDA margin (Consolidated EBITDA as a percentage of revenue) increased to 16.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to 15.2% in the same period of 2012.

    Engineering and Construction:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 12.5% to €242.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €215.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Consolidated EBITDA margin decreased slightly to 12.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to 12.6% for the same period in 2012, due to the mix of projects in execution during the first six months ended June 30, 2013, which contributed with lower margins, compared with the same period of previous year.

    Technology and Other:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 59.8% to €107.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €67.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to the higher margin of solar components, such as technology and mirrors used in the construction of solar plants in the United States and South Africa, together with water technology components used in the construction of the desalinations plants in Tenes (Algeria) and in Nungua (Ghana).

        Concession-Type Infrastructures.    Consolidated EBITDA increased by 28.5% to €140.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €109.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Consolidated EBITDA margin in these activities decreased to 59.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to 60.3% in the same period of 2012.

    Solar:  Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 10.6% to €80.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €90.4 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in the consolidated EBITDA was primarily attributable to the measures adopted in Spain related to the electric system such the elimination of the remuneration option of receiving the production market price (pool price) plus a premium or the new tax on electricity production, imposing a 7% levy on revenue received from power generation, together with worse weather conditions especially during the first three months in 2013, resulting in lower margins of the Spanish solar plants. These negative effects have been partially offset by the entry into operation of four solar plants (Helios 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3) during the second half of 2012.

    Transmission:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 124.8% to €21.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €9.6 million for the same period in 2012, mainly due the entry into operation in the first quarter of 2013 of the Brazilian transmission lines in Manaus which has higher operating margins than the average for the segment. Inflation did not have a relevant impact on operating margins, as contracts are indexed to inflation.

    Co-generation:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 723.1% to €21.4 million for the six months ended December 30, 2013, from €2.6 million for the same period in 2012, mainly due to the entry into operation in the first quarter of 2013 of a 300 MW co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico) which has significantly higher operating margins than the average for the segment.

    Water:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 153.1% to €16.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €6.4 million for the same period in 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to the entry into operation in the first quarter of 2013 of a desalination plant in Qingdao (China) of 100,000 m3/day. The cost of electricity, the main item of the cost structure of the segment, did not have a meaningful impact, as it is passed through to the final client through the tariff.

        Industrial Production.    Consolidated EBITDA increased by 681.3% to €40.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €5.2 million for the same period in 2012. Consolidated EBITDA margin in this segment increased to 4.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from 0.6% in 2012.

    Biofuels:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 681.3% to €40.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from €5.2 million for the same period in 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to a favorable evolution of the average cash spread in the United States and Europe. As ethanol prices increased more than grain prices (the main cost component of the crush formula), the average crush spread for the business saw a positive evolution for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared with the same period of the previous period. The average market crush spread in the United States increased to an average $0.57/gal during the six months ended June 30, 2013, from an average of $0.48/gal during for the same period in 2012. Market crush spread (corn based) for Europe saw an increase to an average 139.8c/m3 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from an average 128.8c/m3 for the same period in 2012. The total combined positive impact of increasing ethanol prices and declining grain prices in the United States and Europe was €12.5 M€

        Engineering and Construction.    Revenues decreased by 6.0% to €3,780.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €4,023.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011 and as a result of lower contribution from our Engineering and Construction work in the Spanish economy.

    Engineering and Construction:  Revenues decreased by 6.3% to €3,477.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €3,710.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 would have been €3,499.8 million, representing a decrease of €210.7 million, or 5.7%, compared to the same period of the previous year. The decrease in revenues was mostly attributable to the decrease in revenue related to the construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain, which represented approximately €553.6 million in 2012 compared to approximately €650.7 million in 2011. Revenues also decreased as a result of lower contribution from our Engineering and Construction work in Spain due to the general slowdown in the Spanish economy. However, our revenues decrease in this activity was partially offset by the ongoing construction of thermo solar plants in the United States (the 280 MW Solana solar plant in Arizona and the 280 MW Mojave solar plant in California), a combined cycle electricity power plant in Morelos, Mexico, and power transmission lines in Latin America also contributed to an increase in revenue.

    Technology and Other:  Revenue decreased by 3.4% to €302.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €313.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 mainly due to the decrease in the construction of thermo-solar assets in Spain. The impact on revenues in Technology and Other of the construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain prospectively from January 1, 2011 was €192.6 million for the fiscal year 2011 compared to €84.3 million for the fiscal year 2012. This decrease was partially offset by the sale of solar components, such as technology and mirrors used in the construction of our U.S. thermo-solar plants, and to the full consolidation of the Rioglass plants after we assumed full control of the group, which represented an increase of €59.4 million. On a

      constant currency basis, revenue for year ended December 31, 2012 would have been the same since all business activity for this segment in 2012 related to Spain.

        Concession-Type Infrastructures.    Revenue decreased by 10.7% to €393.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €440.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The 10.7% year-over-year decrease in revenues was primarily due to the sale of transmission line concessions in Brazil (Cemig Sales) in the fourth quarter of 2011 and second quarter of 2012 and to a lesser extent due to the de-consolidation of certain companies within our concession-type infrastructure activity as a result of the adoption of IFRS 10 and 11 as of January 1, 2012 (please see Note 2.1.3 of our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2012).

    Solar:  Revenue increased by 114.1% to €281.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €131.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. On a constant currency basis, revenue for year ended December 31, 2012 would have been €281.0 million, representing an increase of €149.4 million, or 113.6%, compared to the previous year. The increase was mainly attributable to solar plants in Spain which entered into operation in 2012 (Solacor 1 and 2, Helios 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3), as well as a larger contribution from the combined cycle SPP1 plant in Hassi R'Mel (Algeria), which entered into operation in the second quarter of 2011. As a result, the average capacity in terms of installed MW available throughout the period increased, compared to the previous year. 300 MW of additional capacity (represented by six 50MW CSP plants in Spain since September 2011) entered into operation along with full contribution from assets that came online throughout the course of the previous period and therefore only partially contributed to the previous period's results. This resulted in a net electricity production of 963.9 GWh for the year 2012 compared to 390.9 GWh produced during the year ended December 31, 2011.

      Pricing policies have very limited impact on the Solar segment's results, as we operate in heavily regulated markets and all the assets are generally awarded a fixed tariff scheme, operate under a power purchase agreement, or other forms of regulated tariff.

    Transmission:  Revenue decreased by 84.2% to €37.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €237.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. On a constant currency basis, revenue for year ended December 31, 2012 would have been €41.7 million, representing a decrease of €195.9 million, or 82.4%, compared to the same period of the previous year. The decrease was primarily attributable to the sale of transmission line concessions in Brazil (Cemig Sales) in the fourth quarter of 2011 and second quarter of 2012. As a result, segment capacity declined to 1,476 km in operation at the end of December 2012 from 3,903 km at the end of December 2011. The decrease in km has also been affected by the sale of certain transmission lines in Chile, which were consolidated through equity method and did not therefore contribute to revenue. Also, the de-consolidation of a company within our transmission segment as a result of the adoption of IFRS 10 and 11 as of January 1, 2012 had a negative impact in our revenues for the fiscal year 2012 compared to 2011.

      During both periods, we were able to maintain high levels of availability (a determining factor for the Transmission segment's revenue generation), above 99% during both periods, in line with availability levels for previous years.

    Co-generation:  Revenue increased by 6.3% to €53.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €50.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Foreign currency exchange rates had no significant impact on revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012.

    Water:  Revenue decreased by 1.7% to €20.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €21.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. On a constant currency basis, revenue for year ended December 31, 2012 would have been €21.3 million, representing an increase of €0.3 million, or 1.4%, compared to the same period of the previous year. The slight decrease in revenues was due the de-consolidation in 2012 of the desalination plant in Honaine (Algeria), as a result of the adoption

      of IFRS 10 and 11 as of January 1, 2012, which contributed to revenues in the last quarter of 2011. In terms of volumes of water desalinated, during the year 2012 the company registered an increase to 98.7 million m3, from 86.0 million m3 during 2011.

    Industrial Production:

    Biofuels:  Revenue decreased by 3.9% to €2,138.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €2,225.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. On a constant currency basis, revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 would have been €2,100.5 million, representing a decrease of €124.5 million, or 5.6%, compared to the same period of the previous year. Our Biofuels segment experienced high pressure on costs and margins, which is leading to an erosion of profitability both in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in Europe and Brazil. Given the difficult market conditions, and in order to preserve cash flows, five plants have been temporarily idled in the United States during the period, which contributed to the decrease in revenue during 2012 compared to 2011. Consequently, volumes sold in the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased compared to the same period of the previous year, with 2,439 Ml, with a total negative impact on revenues of €118.1 million. The business recorded during the period an average plant utilization of 85%, compared to 92% during 2011.

      Sugar sales, an important part of the Brazilian business, recorded an increase due to an exceptional harvest in the last quarter of the year, growing to 412 ktn sold during the year ended December 31, 2012 from 360 ktn sold during the same period of the prior year with an impact on revenues in the amount of €19.9 million.

      Additionally, a general decrease in ethanol and sugar prices during the period, resulted in a total negative impact on revenues of €70.6 million and €2.5 million for the years 2012 and 2011, respectively. Average ethanol prices in the United States experienced a decrease, while remaining flat in the European Union. Average sugar prices declined too (the NY11 sugar average quote, as a reference, declined from an average of 27.0 c$/lb. for 2011 to an average 21.6 c$/lb. for the year 2012).

        Engineering and Construction.    Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 11.8% to €623.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €707.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Consolidated EBITDA margin (Consolidated EBITDA as a percentage of revenue) decreased to 16.5% for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to 17.6% in the same period of 2011, due to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011.

    Engineering and Construction:  Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 7.0% to €475.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €511.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Consolidated EBITDA margin remained at similar level, 13.7% for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to 13.8% in 2011. This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in EBITDA related to the construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain, which represented €68.9 million in the Engineering and Construction segment in 2012 compared to €106.5 million in 2011. In 2011 EBITDA in Engineering and Construction included a one-time income of €56 million recorded in "Other Operating Income" resulting from the prospective application of IFRIC 12 on January 1, 2011 (see Note 2.1.1 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements).

    Technology and Other:  Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 24.3% to €148.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €196.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in EBITDA related to the construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain, which represented €44.0 million in the Technology and Other segment in 2012 compared to €128.3 million in 2011. In 2011 EBITDA in Technology and Other included a one-time income of €109 million recorded in "Other Operating Income" resulting from the prospective application of IFRIC 12 on January 1, 2011 (see Note 2.1.1 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements). This decrease was partially offset by the impact of the acquisition of the Rioglass Group, in which we already had a 50% equity interest. The transaction is a business combination achieved in stages and according to IFRS 3, we remeasured our previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value and we recorded a profit amounting to €85.0 million in Technology and Other operating income. The decrease in terms of the EBITDA margin from 62.8% for 2011 compared to 49.0% in 2012 for the Technology and Other reportable segment was attributable to the decrease in the construction of thermo-solar plants in 2012 and due to higher margin technology licensing fees in 2011 associated with the construction of our two 280 MW thermo-solar projects in the United States (Solana and Mojave), where new technology was being deployed.

        Concession-Type Infrastructures.    Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 23.1% to €233.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €303.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Consolidated EBITDA margin in these activities decreased to 59.4% for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to 69.0% in the same period of 2011. The 23.1% year-over-year decrease in EBITDA was primarily due to the sale of transmission line concessions in Brazil (Cemig Sales) in the fourth quarter of 2011 and second quarter of 2012 and to a lesser extent due to the de-consolidation of certain companies within our concession-type infrastructure activity as a result of the adoption of IFRS 10 and 11 as of January 1, 2012 (please see Note 2.1.3 of our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2012). The decrease in margin was primarily attributable to the Cemig Sales, and the transmission lines that had a higher level of EBITDA margin as a percentage of revenues than other assets.

    Solar:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 118.9% to €203.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €92.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to plants that entered into operation in 2012 (Solacor 1 and 2, Helios 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3). The Consolidated EBITDA margin rose to 72.2% for the year ended December 31, 2012 from 70.6% for the year ended December 31, 2011. This increase is due to the increased efficiency of newer plants that generated proportionally more energy compared to the previous ones, as well as increased contribution from those plants that have been remunerated through a higher pool+premium rather than tariff payments. This scheme, however, has been modified after the latest sector reform, as it is described in "Regulation" section, whereby the premium payment is eliminated

155


Table of Contents

      from 2013 onwards, resulting in the obligation to choose between the stabilized tariff or the pool price. This scheme awards a lower remuneration compared to the pool+premium scheme awarded from the second year of operation, considering the market prices for the period (source: OMIE) and the resolutions set forth in the Royal Decree 661/2007. Considering that operating costs are related to the output produced, this results in an increase in the plant EBITDA margin from the second year of operation. These positive effects have been offset by the fact that thermo-solar plants that have recently entered into operation and have started to generate EBITDA, during the initial stage of operation, typically tend to have lower EBITDA margin until the plant reaches full efficiency after the start-up phase.

    Transmission:  Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 91.9% to €15.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €193.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, mainly due to the sale of the power transmission lines sold in Brazil which had higher operating margins than the average for the segment. Also, the de-consolidation of a company within our transmission segment in Brazil as a result of the adoption of IFRS 10 and 11 as of January 1, 2012 had a negative impact in our EBITDA for the fiscal year 2012 compared to 2011.

      Inflation did not have a relevant impact on operating margins, as contracts are indexed to inflation.

    Co-generation:  Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 59.8% to €2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, mainly due to higher costs of operation and maintenance during 2012 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2011.

    Water:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 12.6% to €11.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase both in consolidated EBITDA and in EBITDA margin was primarily attributable to our desalination plant in Skikda (Algeria) which contributed at a higher margin in 2012 compared to 2011, thus improving our overall EBITDA margin. The cost of electricity, the main item of the cost structure of the segment, did not have a meaningful impact, as it is passed through to the final client through the tariff.

    Industrial Production.

    Biofuels:  Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 40.1% to €91.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from €152.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to extremely adverse market conditions, especially in the United States resulting in heavy margin erosions and to the lack of improved performances of the European and Brazilian markets, offset in part by income of €26 million during the last quarter of 2012 corresponding to a collection from Chicago Title Insurance Company after a favorable and final jury verdict in a legal proceeding against that company. The reasons for this low margin situation are the severe drought in the Midwest in the United States, causing an increase in corn prices above $7.0 per bushel and the decline in gasoline consumption wich in turn has led to low ethanol prices. In Europe the third quarter. European crush margins for the third quarter stood at an average of approximately €180 per cubic meter compared to less than €130 per cubic meter for the first half and the fourth quarter of the year, leading to a slight recovery of performance in the region quantified as €2.2 million. In general, an unfavorable evolution of raw material costs, in particular grain prices in the United States, led to margin erosion for the segment during 2012 in comparison to 2011.

      As a result of declining ethanol prices and increasing grain prices (the main cost component of the crush formula), the average crush spread for the business saw a negative evolution for 2012 compared to 2011, especially in the United States, despite the hedging activity the business conducts in order to protect sales margins. Taking into account our hedging strategies policy, see "—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk—", the total combined negative impact of €152.8 million in terms of consolidated EBITDA for 2012 was a consequence of declining ethanol prices and increased

      corn prices in the United States was €152.8 million. In detail, the average market crush spread in the United States decreased to an average $0.42/gal during 2012 from an average of $0.69/gal during 2011. Market crush spread (corn based) for Europe saw a slight increase during the period, to an average 141.9€/m3 for 2012 from an average 139.8€/m3 for 2011.

      Additionally, our subsidiary, Abengoa Bioenergy U.S. Holding, recorded an income of €26 million during the last quarter of 2012 corresponding to a collection from Chicago Title Insurance Company after a favorable and final jury verdict in a litigation process against that company.

        Engineering and Construction.    Revenue increased by 63.4% to €4,023.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €2,462.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011 and also due to the increase business activity in the two segments comprising our Engineering and Construction activity.

    Engineering and Construction:  Revenue increased by 58.0% to €3,710.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €2,348.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. On a constant currency basis, revenue for 2011 would have been €3,721.8 million, representing an increase of €1,373.3 million, or 58.5%, compared to the same period of the previous year. The increase in revenues was mostly attributable to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011. Upon prospective application of IFRIC 12, from January 1, 2011, the remaining contract revenue and margins for the ongoing construction of the plants began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11, which resulted in revenues in our Engineering and Construction activity related to thermo-solar assets in Spain for the fiscal year 2011 of approximately €650.7 million compared to €0.0 million for the fiscal year 2010 when revenues related to ongoing construction of thermo-solar assets was eliminated in consolidation. The increase in revenue was also attributable to the construction revenue from the 280 MW CSP Solana plant in Arizona and the 280 MW CSP Mojave plant in California (both

      in the United States) (construction started at the end of 2010 and mid-2011, respectively), the 100 MW CSP plant in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates) and the co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico) and the power transmission lines in Manaus and Rio Madeira (Brazil).

    Technology and Other:  Revenue increased by 176.1% to €313.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €113.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. On a constant currency basis, revenue for 2011 would have been €314.4 million, representing an increase of €200.9 million, or 177.0%, compared to the previous year. The increase in revenues was mostly attributable the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011, explained above. The impact on revenues of applying IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar plants in Spain prospectively from January 1, 2011 was €192.6 million for the fiscal year 2011 compared to €0.0 million for the fiscal year 2010.

        Concession-Type Infrastructures.    Revenue increased by 36.4% to €440.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €322.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to the commencement of operations of plants under service concession agreements.

    Solar:  Revenue increased by 124.7% to €131.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €58.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. On a constant currency basis, revenues for 2011 would have been €133.1 million, representing an increase of €74.6 million, or 128%, compared to the pervious year. Revenues increased due to the startup of Solnova 1, Solnova 3 and Solnova 4 solar power plants, in the second and third quarters of 2010, as well as an integrated solar-combined cycle plant in Hassi R'Mel (Algeria) in the first half of 2011 and a thermo-solar plant of 50 MW (Helioenergy 1) in the third quarter of 2011. As a result, the average capacity in terms of installed MW available throughout the year increased compared to the previous year. 300 MW of additional capacity (represented by three 50MW CSP plants in Spain and one 150MW Integrated Solar-Combined Cycle plant in Algeria) entered into operation along with full contribution from assets that came online throughout the course of the previous year and therefore only partially contributed to the previous year's results. This resulted in a net electricity production of 390.9 GWh for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 180.0 GWh produced during the year ended December 31, 2010.

      Pricing policies have very limited impact on the Solar segment's results, as we operate in heavily regulated markets and all the assets are awarded a fixed tariff scheme, a power purchase agreement, or other forms of regulated tariffs.

    Transmission:  Revenue increased by 17.3% to €237.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €202.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. On a constant currency basis, revenue for 2011 would have been €237.3 million, representing an increase of €34.8 million, or 17%, compared to the previous year. The increase was primarily attributable to the commencement of operations of the power transmission lines ATE IV-VII, Brazil, in the third quarter of 2010 and to the progressive entry into operation throughout 2011 of power transmission line ATN in Peru. At the end of the year (December 2011) the business registered the sale of certain assets to the Brazilian company Cemig, which did not have a material impact on revenues. However, segment capacity decreased to 3,903 km in operation at the end of December 2011 compared to 4,413 km at the end of December 2010.

      During both years, we were able to maintain high levels of availability (a determining factor for the Transmission segment's revenue generation), above 99% during both years, in line with availability levels for previous years.

    Co-generation:  Revenue increased by 7.6% to €50.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €46.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to higher tariffs. Foreign currency exchanges rate had no significant impact on revenue growth.

    Water:  Revenue increased by 38.3% to €21.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €15.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. On a constant currency basis, revenue for 2011 would have been €21.8 million, representing an increase of €6.6 million, or 43%, compared to the previous year. The increase was primarily attributable to the entry into operation in the last quarter of 2011 of the desalination plant in Honaine (Algeria).

      In terms of volumes of water desalinated, during 2011 the company registered an increase to 59.3 million m3, from 35.7 million of m3 during 2010.

        Industrial Production.    

    Biofuels:  Revenue increased by 41.4% to €2,225.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €1,575.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. On a constant currency basis, revenue for 2011 would have been €2,267.3 million, representing an increase of €692.1 million, or 44%, compared to the previous year. The increase was mainly attributable to the full year of operations of the new bioethanol plant in Rotterdam (Netherlands) and in Indiana and Illinois (United States) in the year ended December 31, 2011 and to the increases in ethanol and biodiesel prices during the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to the year ended December 31, 2010.

      Volumes sold in 2011 increased compared to the previous year, with 2,758 Ml of biofuel sold compared to 2,553 Ml. This was attributable to the ramp-up of our Rotterdam plant, which entered into operation in the second half of 2010, and the operation at full capacity of our US plants. During 2010 our Portales facility in New Mexico was kept idle, while our Indiana and Illinois facilities entered into operation during first quarter of 2010. As a result of these factors, average plant utilization was 93% during 2011, compared to 89% in 2010.

      Revenue from sugar sales, an important part of our Brazilian business, was relatively unchanged from 2010 to 2011, with no material variation in terms of volumes.

      2011 was a positive year for output prices, as the Biofuels segment benefited from increasing ethanol and sugar prices. Both US and EU average ethanol prices were higher during the course of 2011 compared to 2010. Sugar prices in Brazil also increased (the NY11 sugar average quote, as a reference, rose from an average of 22.1 c$/lb. for 2010 to an average 27.0 c$/lb. for 2011). The increase in output prices, combined with the increase in volumes sold described in the previous paragraph, resulted in an increase in revenues during the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to the year ended December 31, 2010.

        Engineering and Construction.    Consolidated EBITDA increased by 146.8% to €707.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €286.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Consolidated EBITDA margins increased to 17.6%, compared to 11.6% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in EBITDA was primarily attributable to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011 and also due to the increase business activity in the two segments comprising our Engineering and Construction activity. In addition, the increase in EBITDA margins was also primarily attributable to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011.

    Engineering and Construction:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 96.0% to €511.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €260.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in EBITDA was primarily attributable to the impact in EBITDA of applying IFRIC 12 to our thermo solar plants in Spain prospectively from January 1, 2011, which was €106.5 million for the fiscal year 2011 compared to €0.0 million for the fiscal year 2010. In 2011 EBITDA in Engineering and Construction included a one-time income of €56 million recorded in "Other Operating Income" resulting from the prospective application of IFRIC 12 on January 1, 2011 (see Note 2.1.1 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements). The increase in Consolidated EBITDA was also attributable to the increase in revenue from the construction of the 280 MW CSP Solana plant in Arizona and the 280 MW CSP Mojave plant in California (both in the United States) and the 100 MW CSP plant in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates), to the progress in the construction of the co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico) and the power transmission lines in Manaus and Rio Madeira (Brazil). EBITDA margins as a percentage of revenues increased due to the fact that many of these projects, in particular those related to the construction of solar plants, include the deployment of new technology which is priced above average for the segment.

    Technology and Other:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 662.6% to €196.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €25.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in EBITDA was primarily attributable to the prospective application of IFRIC 12 since January 1, 2011 mentioned above. The impact on EBITDA of applying IFRIC 12 to our thermo-solar plants in Spain prospectively from January 1, 2011 was €128.3 million for the fiscal year 2011 compared to

160


Table of Contents

      €0.0 million for the fiscal year 2010. In 2011 EBITDA in Technology and Other included a one-time income of €109 million recorded in "Other Operating Income" resulting from the prospective application of IFRIC 12 on January 1, 2011 (see Note 2.1.1 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements). The increase was also attributable to higher technological sales mostly relating to thermo-solar in the energy sector.

        Concession-Type Infrastructures.    Consolidated EBITDA increased by 44.8% to €303.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €209.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Consolidated EBITDA margin in these activities was 69.0% for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to 65.0% in the same period of 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to the higher level of performance of assets already in operation.

    Solar:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 116.7% to €92.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €42.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to the entry in operation during 2011 of a thermo-solar plant of 150 MW (Solar Power Plant One) and a 50 MW plant (Helioenergy 1) versus the entry into operation in 2010 of only three thermo-solar plants of 50 MW each. However, the EBITDA margin has declined to 70.6% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 73.3% for the year ended December 31, 2010, mostly due to the fact that the Helioenergy 1 plant entered into operation towards the end of 2011, when there is typically less solar radiation, fewer daylight hours and worse weather conditions, resulting in lower margins, to the fact that the 150 MW hybrid solar-gas plant operates with lower margins compared to the other assets contributing to the segment results and to the fact that in general, during the initial stage of operation of any thermo-solar plant the EBITDA margin tends to be lower until the plant reaches full efficiency after the start-up phase.

      Finally, margin decreased due to the higher weight that the segment's solar thermal installations have within the portfolio, as they are characterized by lower margins than photovoltaic assets.

    Transmission:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 28.4% to €193.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €150.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 due to increased operational efficiency throughout 2011 of power transmission lines in Brazil.

      Inflation did not have a relevant impact on operating margins, as contracts are indexed to inflation.

    Co-generation:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 18.0% to €7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.

    Water:  Consolidated EBITDA increased by 1.0% to €10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €10.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. EBITDA generally remained in line with that of the prior year. The cost of electricity, the main item of the cost structure of the segment, did not have a meaningful impact, as it is passed through to the final client through the tariff.

        Industrial Production.    

    Biofuels:  Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 28.2% to €152.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from €212.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to an unfavorable evolution of raw material costs during 2011, in particular grain prices in the United States (during the first part of the year) and in the European Union, which led to margin erosion for the segment during 2011 in comparison to the previous year, offsetting the revenue expansion achieved in the period.

      As a result of substantial increases in grain prices (the main cost component of the crush formula), the average crush spread for the business saw a strongly negative evolution in Europe during 2011 compared to the previous year, despite the hedging activity the business conducts in order to protect sales margins. The average market crush spread (corn based) for Europe decreased to an average

Table of Contents

      139.8€/m3 for 2011 from an average 165.5€/m3 for 2010. Market crush spread in the US increased to an average $0.69/gal during 2011 from an average $0.59/gal during 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The liquidity and capital resources discussion which follows contains certain estimates as of the date of this prospectus of our estimated future sources and uses of liquidity (including estimated future capital resources and capital expenditures) and future financial and operating results. These estimates, while presented with numerical specificity, necessarily reflect numerous estimates and assumptions made by us with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, regulatory, market and financial conditions and other future events, as well as matters specific to our businesses, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict and many of which are beyond our control. These estimates reflect subjective judgement in many respects and thus are susceptible to multiple interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business, economic, regulatory, financial and other developments. As such, these estimates constitute forward-looking information and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual sources and uses of liquidity (including estimated future capital resources and capital expenditures) and financial and operating results to differ materially from the estimates made here, including, but not limited to, our performance, industry performance, general business and economic conditions, customer requirements, competition, adverse changes in applicable laws, regulations or rules, and the various risks set forth in this prospectus. See "Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Language".

        In addition, these estimates reflect assumptions of our management as of the time that they were prepared as to certain business decisions that were and are subject to change. These estimates also may be affected by our ability to achieve strategic goals, objectives and targets over the applicable periods. The estimates cannot, therefore, be considered a guarantee of future sources and uses of liquidity (including estimated future capital resources and capital expenditures) and future financial and operating results, and the information should not be relied on as such. Without disclaiming responsibility to have a reasonable basis for the prospective financial information included in this prospectus, none of us, the Board, the underwriters or any of our or their respective advisors or representatives or any of our or their respective affiliates assumes any responsibility for the validity, accuracy or completeness of such information. None of us, the Board, the underwriters, or our or their respective affiliates, advisors, officers, directors or representatives intends to, and each of them disclaims any obligation to, update, revise or correct these estimates, except as otherwise required by law, including if the estimates are or become inaccurate (even in the short term).

        The inclusion in this prospectus of these estimates should not be deemed an admission or representation by us, the Board, the underwriters or our or their respective affiliates that such information is viewed by us, the Board, the underwriters or our or their respective affiliates as material information of ours. Such information should be evaluated, if at all, in conjunction with the historical financial statements and other information regarding Abengoa contained in this prospectus. None of us, the Board, the underwriters or our or their respective affiliates, advisors, officers, directors or representatives has made or makes any representation to any prospective investor or other person regarding our ultimate performance compared to the information contained in these estimates or that forecasted results will be achieved. In light of the foregoing factors and the uncertainties inherent in the information provided above, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these estimates.

        We believe that our existing liquidity and cash flow will be sufficient to meet our requirements and commitments for the foreseeable future as indicated by the information related to our main sources and uses of liquidity found elsewhere in this section.

        We utilize a combination of corporate debt and non-recourse debt to finance our cash needs and the growth of our business. Our primary source of liquidity has historically been cash generated from our operations and financing activities.

162


Table of Contents

        Cash generated by operations includes mostly the EBITDA generated in the period as well as cash flow generated from working capital. We use different tools that have allowed the company to generate cash flows from working capital in the past: (i) we outsource payment to suppliers through financial institutions that process payments 180 days after approval of invoices, (ii) we use non-recourse factoring for many of our receivables (see — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk — Credit Risk") and (iii) we attempt to negotiate advances from customers related to construction works we perform in our Engineering and Construction segment. The use of these tools allows many of our projects to be cash flow positive throughout their life. Non-recourse factoring allows us to collect on invoices as soon as they are certified by our customers (based on percentage of completion milestones agreed to in our contracts). Our outsourcing of payables implies suppliers are paid through a financial institution 180 days after the invoices are internally approved (which requires us in certain cases to maintain cash deposits within the relevant financial institutions or otherwise on a restrictive basis), having the option to collect in advance with a discount. Therefore, in quarters of high execution and invoicing, we can generate significant cash flows from collections, whereas payments on work performed are generally made in the subsequent two quarters. This causes certain seasonality in our cash flows, with cash typically generated towards the end of the year, and payments made in the first half of the year.

        As of June 30, 2013 we had €5,252 million of Gross Corporate Debt and €2,685 million of cash and cash equivalents and short-term financial investments, excluding non-recourse entities compared to €4,946 million and €2,271 million as of December 31, 2012, respectively. As of June 30, 2013, we had €412 million of short-term Corporate Debt, representing 8% of our total Corporate Debt. Such debt includes €215 million under the 2010 Forward Start Facility that is due in July 2013 (and has been repaid), which is not financed with drawdowns under the 2012 Forward Start Facility available to us on such date.

        We have historically refinanced or renewed our bilateral credit agreements and other indebtedness coming due at or prior to maturity, and in 2012 we refinanced the remaining amounts due under our 2010 Forward Start Facility and certain of our other syndicated facilities with the signing on April 27, 2012 of a new forward start facility agreement with a group of lenders (the "2012 Forward Start Facility"), with final maturity on July 20, 2016. The original aggregate principal amount under the 2012 Forward Start Facility was €1,566 million, however, following two increases of the aggregate principal amount on May 22, 2012 and July 11, 2012 of €47 million and €50 million, respectively, the 2012 Forward Start Facility provides for borrowings up to €1,663 million divided into Tranche A and Tranche B amounting to €1,350.7 million and €312.5 million, respectively. Drawdowns under Tranche A are designated as July 20, 2012 under Sub-Tranches A1, A2 and A3, and July 20, 2013 under Sub-Tranche A4 which correspond to payment or maturity dates of our other syndicated finance facilities. Drawdowns under Tranche B are designated as July 20, 2012 under Sub-Tranches B3 and B4 and July 20, 2013 under Sub-Tranche B2 which correspond to payment or maturity dates of existing indebtedness. The drawdown date for Sub-Tranche B1 is available after July 2, 2012. The terms and conditions of the 2012 Forward Start Facility are broadly in line with those of our existing 2010 Forward Start Facility. As of June 30, 2013, borrowings under the 2012 and 2010 Forward Start Facility amounted to €551 million and €1,278 million respectively. The remaining €1,073 million has been drawn under the 2012 Forward Start Facility will be used solely to refinance existing indebtedness and cannot be used for any other purpose. Therefore the drawdown will have no impact on our leverage ratios.

        Credit ratings affect the cost and other terms upon which we are able to obtain liquidity through financing (or refinancing). Our corporate family rating and probability of default rating have been recently downgraded by several rating agencies. On July 17, 2012, Moody's downgraded our corporate family rating and probability of default rating from "Ba3" to "B1" with a stable outlook. Concurrently, Moody's downgraded the rating on certain of our existing high-yield notes from "Ba3" to "B1." On November 30, 2012 Moody's changed to negative from stable the outlook on the "B1" rating of our corporate family and such high-yield notes and downgraded them on March 20, 2013 from "B1" to "B2" with a stable outlook. On December 27, 2012, S&P changed the perspective of the "B+" rating from stable to watch negative of our corporate family and such high yield notes and downgraded them on April 3, 2013 to "B" with negative

outlook. In addition, on July 25, 2012, Fitch downgraded our long-term issuer default rating from "BB" to "B+" with a stable outlook.

        Such downgrades and any future downgrade of our corporate family or of our outstanding securities may adversely affect our ability to obtain financing on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, and therefore materially adversely affect our liquidity position (including our ability to repay our outstanding indebtedness) and our ability to implement our corporate strategy.

        Our principal liquidity and capital requirements consist of the following:

    capital expenditures for existing and new plants and operations;

    debt service requirements on our existing and future debt;

    costs and expenses relating to the operation of our businesses; and

    acquisitions of new companies to expand our existing product and service lines and geographic presence.

        We proactively manage our cash needs by preparing an annual financial plan, which is approved by the Board of Directors, and continually monitoring the provisions of our liquidity reserve (which includes credit facilities and cash and cash equivalents), based on expected cash flows. We fund in advance disbursements for major cash requirements, such as capital expenditures and debt repayments. In addition, as a general rule, we do not commit our own equity in projects until the associated long term financing is obtained.

        As of June 30, 2013, our known material future commitments in the short-term and long-term, with and without recourse, were €5,252 million and €5,298 million, respectively. For further discussion of our contractual obligations, see "— Non-Recourse Debt" and "— Corporate Debt."

        In addition, as of June 30, 2013, our estimated capital expenditures for the rest of 2013 through 2015, broken down between our Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production activities (we do not have any capital expenditures in our Engineering and Construction activity) and between committed and uncommitted, are as follows:

        In the last three years, due to the increase in capital expenditures incurred to develop our portfolio of segments in power transmission, solar plants, biofuels and water desalination plants, we have invested €2,214 million, €2,913 million and €2,094 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which has resulted in negative cash flow. These projects are developed over long periods of time, many of which are over 12-month periods. As a result, a high amount of our fixed or intangible assets are still under construction (€2,060 million as of June 30, 2013, or 21% of our total tangible and intangible assets excluding goodwill) and therefore are not yet generating cash flow from operations. However, as these projects become operational, during 2013, 2014 and 2015 they will start contributing to the operating result under our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity and therefore will generate cash flow from operations.

        The amount of total assets under the scope of IFRS 10 which were under construction as of June 30, 2013 was approximately €2,834 million. See "—Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Results of Operations."

Uncommitted project (financing and partner's contribution still pending to be secured).

        As of June 30, 2013, our cash and cash equivalents were €2,048 million and short-term financial investments were €1,174 million. We also had other current assets (clients and other receivables and inventories) amounting to €2,127 million. Our undrawn corporate credit lines amounted to €101 million.

        We aim to maintain our strong liquidity position, extend the debt maturities of our existing corporate loans and bonds, continue to access the capital markets from time to time, as appropriate, and further diversify our funding sources. Our debt maturities for the following twelve months amount to €1,008 million, out of which €595 million relate to non-recourse financing to be repaid with cash flows to be generated from the projects in respect of which that financing was incurred and €412 million relate to corporate debt maturities. Additionally, in January 2013, we issued a €250 million bond due in 2018 and a €400 million convertible bond due in 2019, the proceeds of which, net of €25 million fees, were used to repay, in part, €99.9 million of our convertible bond due in 2014 and certain corporate bank maturities totalling €22 million. The remainder of the proceeds from these issuances were used to repay €215 million of the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement in July 2013 and the rest is intended to be used to repay corporate bank debt maturities. Net interest expense estimate for 2013 is approximately €730 million and we expect to pay a €39 million dividend to our shareholders.

        Additionally, we estimate capital expenditures commitments for the next twelve months of approximately €1,507 million, out of which €1,107 million are expected to be financed with non-recourse debt already committed but not yet drawn upon, €138 million with committed contributions from partners and €262 million with corporate funds from Abengoa. We also have other current liabilities (trade payables,

166


Table of Contents

tax liabilities, derivative financial liabilities and provisions) for a total amount of €5,905 million. Some of these payables benefit from required cash deposits, recorded under short term financial investments and Cash and cash equivalents that may only be used specifically to pay confirmed suppliers through financial institutions. This amount was approximately €1,000 million as of June 30, 2013. Consequently, we estimate that our main uses of liquidity in the next twelve months will amount to approximately €10,188 million, which is covered with existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term financial investments as of June 30, 2013 totaling €3,222 million, other current assets (clients and other receivables and inventories) amounting to €2,127 million, committed contributions from partners and non-recourse debt for a total amount of €1,245 million, undrawn credit lines of €180 million, the net proceeds of the bonds issued in January 2013 (net of the buy-back of our convertible bond due in 2014 and fees) of €504 million and estimated profit for the year from continuing operations adjusted by non-monetary items during the next twelve months (prior to interest and working capital) of approximately €800 million. Our estimate for the next twelve months is based on our profit from continuing operations adjusted by non-monetary items for the first half of 2013 of €423.7 million and positive forecasts of the growth of our different businesses, including projected increases in profit in our Engineering and Construction segment and on better than expected crush spreads in our Bioenergy segment. This estimate is based upon management's estimates as of the date of this prospectus and due to certain assumptions is inherently uncertain and may differ significantly from our actual profit for the year from continuing operations adjusted by non-monetary items generated in that period. See "Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements." We also intend to continue to rotate assets as part of our strategy when we consider that market conditions are adequate. For example, in May 2013, we closed the sale of Bargoa, which manufactures telecommunication components, to the U.S. company Corning Incorporated for a total amount of $80 million, which resulted in $50 million of cash proceeds. In July 2013, we received €331 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the price agreed for the sale of our subsidiary Befesa, together with a deferred compensation of €17 million (including €15 million in escrow pending resolution of ongoing litigation and a €2 million long-term receivable from a Befesa customer), a €48 million subordinated vendor note with a five-year maturity and a €225 million (par value) subordinated convertible instrument with a 15-year maturity. We expect to generate additional sources of liquidity from asset rotation in the next twelve months, although we do not count on it for our liquidity analysis. We have identified a pipeline of assets amounting to approximately €3.1 billion to be rotated in the next 18 months, which we believe would result in approximately €1.5 billion of cash proceeds. These opportunities relate to our power transmission business in Latin America, our renewable and conventional power assets and others.

        As a result of the above, we estimate that our preliminary main sources of liquidity for 2013 will amount to approximately €8,471 million. However, we intend to continue to apply the same working capital policy during 2013 as that disclosed above in the third paragraph of this section and maintain our same payment and collection terms. Consequently, we expect to end the year with a negative working capital balance of approximately €3,000 million (defined as "inventories" plus "clients and other trade receivables" minus "trade payables and other current liabilities"), in line with our negative working capital balance at the end of 2012 and 2011 (€3,257 million and €3,039 million, respectively). Trade payables and other current liabilities includes "credits for services" of approximately €988 million that relate to recurrent amounts payable to subcontractors in our Engineering and Construction segment as part of our other operating expenses. This assumption is supported by our contracted Engineering and Construction backlog for 2013 and an expected improvement in our biofuels segment.

        Additionally, we have extra corporate borrow capacity of €581 million without incurring a breach in our financial covenants.

        Additionally, we have estimated uncommitted capital expenditures for the next twelve months of approximately €219 million, without a significant contribution from Abengoa. These opportunities remain uncommitted subject to the availability of the necessary funds from Abengoa, partners and long-term financial arrangements. Therefore, our ability to meet our financial commitments as explained above is in part dependent on the availability of funds or foregoing or otherwise not undertaking our uncommitted capital expenditures in 2013.

        We aim to continue to raise equity funding at the project company level through partnerships.

        We only intend to engage in those opportunities after financing has been committed. As of June 30, 2013, the following significant projects that have been awarded are included in our uncommitted capital expenditures plan, for which we are currently seeking financing: two 50 MW CSP plants in Spain and a

contract for the development of El Zapotillo aqueduct project in Mexico. We closed financing for the two 50 MW CSP plants in Spain (Solaben 1-6) on September 30, 2013.

        Our liquidity plans are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, some of which are outside of our control. Macro-economic conditions could limit our ability to successfully execute our business plans and, therefore, adversely affect our liquidity plans. See "Risk Factors."

Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities

        For the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, we generated €160.9 million of net cash flows from operating activities compared to €79.1 million during the same period last year mostly due to higher profit for the period from continuing operations adjusted by non-monetary items (€423.7 million in the first six months of 2013 compared to €291.6 million in the first six months of 2012), which was partially offset by a larger consumption of working capital (€68.8 million compared to €31.5 million in the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively) and larger net interest and taxes paid, net of discontinued operations (€193.9 million compared to €180.9 million in the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively).

169


Table of Contents

        For the year ended December 31, 2012, we generated net cash in our operating activities of €601.7 million, compared to net cash generated from operating activities of €1,238.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in net cash flow from operating activities was mainly due to a positive contribution to operating cash from working capital of €784.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2011 versus €177.6 million during the same period of 2012. The reduced generation of cash from working capital in 2012 was mainly due to larger amounts paid to our suppliers, especially in our Engineering and Construction activity, as well as to the low margins in our Biofuels segment during 2012. As a result of our working capital financing policies, whereby we pay suppliers 180 days from date of invoice, a lot of the strong execution performed in the last quarter of 2011 to bring several solar assets into operation was paid out to suppliers during 2012. This resulted in large cash outflows during this period, which was paid, in part, with existing cash on the balance sheet, with cash generated from operations during the period before the payment of interest and taxes, and by temporarily using funds from corporate financing. Finally, interest paid was lower for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared with the prior year (€464.3 million vs €471.4 million), while interest received was also lower (€67.3 million (2012) vs. €91.2 million (2011)), all resulting in a significantly lower cash generated by operations period over period.

        We follow a policy of drawing down on our corporate bank debt facilities as soon as they are contracted. Therefore our main source of corporate financing is cash on balance sheet. As of December 31, 2012 the Company had approximately €145 million of undrawn corporate financing lines. We additionally had €1,073 million drawn under the 2012 Forward Start Facility, which will only be used to refinance existing indebtedness upon their maturities and therefore this drawdown will have no impact on our leverage ratios.

        For the year ended December 31, 2011, we generated net cash flows from operating activities of €1,238.5 million, compared to net cash generated in operating activities of €721.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in net cash flow from operating activities was mainly due to higher non-monetary adjustments to net profit (€548.6 million vs. €339.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively), mostly related to non-cash financial costs and derivatives adjustments, and a positive contribution from working capital of €784.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2011 versus €450.0 million during 2010. The cash contribution from working capital was primarily attributable to a large increase in trade payables during the period, amounting to €1,215.6 million versus an increase of €548.6 million in 2010. As a result of our working capital financing policies, whereby we pay suppliers 180 days from the date of invoice, a lot of the work performed during the period to bring several solar assets, the ethanol plant in Rotterdam and a power transmission line in Peru into operation remained unpaid at year end, whereas the related receivables were collected through non-recourse factoring in significantly less time. The contribution to cash flow from operations from working capital has allowed us to finance part of our investments during the period without the need to access corporate financing. Such contribution, however, is seasonal in nature, as payments to suppliers are made during the first months of the succeeding year.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

        For the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, net cash used in investing activities was €1, 011.8 million compared to €1,426.2 million in the same period of 2012 due to lower investment executed in the period as a result of approaching the end of the construction phase of some of our more relevant projects (Solana, CSP plants in Spain and our cogeneration plan for Pemex).

        For the year ended December 31, 2012, net cash used in investing activities was €2,639.0 million, compared to €2,051.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in net cash used in investing activities corresponds to the execution of our capital expenditure plan, which was more intense during 2012 compared to 2011. Our main expenditures during 2012 have been the construction of several solar plants in Spain, the construction of solar plants of Mojave in California and Solana in Arizona (both in the United States), the construction of power transmission lines in Brazil and Peru, the construction of a second-generation biofuels commercial plant in Hugoton, Kansas (United States), the construction of a co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico) and the construction of a desalination plant in Ghana. The corporate

170


Table of Contents

contributions into these investments amounted to approximately €1,189 million (mostly related to Abengoa's equity funding of solar plants in Spain and United States, transmission lines in Brazil and a cogeneration plant in Mexico), which were primarily funded with cash and cash equivalents on balance sheet, as corporate financing remained broadly stable during the year.

        For the year ended December 31, 2011, net cash used in investing activities was €2,051.9 million, compared to €1,956.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to the construction of the power transmission lines in Brazil and Peru and a co-generation plant in Mexico; and the construction of the Solacor 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3, Helios 1 and 2 and Helioenergy 1 and 2 solar power plants in Spain, the Solar Power Plant One integrated solar-combined cycle power plant in Hassi R'Mel (Algeria), the construction of solar power plants in Arizona and California (both the United States), and the desalination plants in Qingdao (China) and Algeria, as well as the payment of the deferred purchase price of the entities acquired in 2010 (NTE Transmissora de Energía, S.A. and STE Transmissora de Energía, S.A.).

Net Cash Generated from Financing Activities

        For the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, net cash flow from financing activities was €571.3 million compared to €234.7 million in the first six months of 2012. The net cash generated from financing activities during the first six months of 2013 related to proceeds from loans and borrowings of €1,096.9 million, which was offset by a repayment of loans and borrowings of €366.8 million, the acquisition of treasury shares totaling €84.9 million, dividends paid to shareholders totaling €38.7 million and the effect of discontinued operations of €35.1 million. The proceeds from loans and borrowings related mostly to the issuance during the first months in 2013 of the 2019 Convertible Notes and the Senior Unsecured Notes due 2018 for an amount of €400 million and €250 million respectively. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, net cash generated from financing activities related to proceeds from loans and borrowings of €314.1 million, mostly linked to CSP solar assets in Spain, which was offset by a repayment of loans and borrowings of €6.1 million, dividends paid to shareholders of €16.1 million and the effect of discontinued operations of €52.9 million.

        For the year ended December 31, 2012, net cash flow from financing activities was €845.1 million, compared to €1,676.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The net cash generated from financing activities during 2012 corresponds to proceeds from loans and borrowings of €757.0 million, repayments of loans and borrowings of €229.6 million, dividends paid to shareholders of €36.6 million, other finance activities of €6 million and the effect of discontinued operations of €360.4 million. The proceeds from loans and borrowings relates mostly to new non-recourse financings of €242 million obtained for our solar plants under construction (the thermal solar plants Solaben, Solacor and Helios in Spain) and to a extent to transmission lines in Brazil, for €432 million (Manaus, Linha Verde), the cogeneration plant for Pemex in Mexico and the consruction of a wind farm in Uruguay for €84 million.

        For the year ended December 31, 2011, net cash flow from financing activities was €1,676.0 million, compared to €2,632.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to the fact that net cash generated from financing activities in the year ended December 31, 2010 included the proceeds from issuances of €250 million of convertible notes due 2017, €500 million of notes due 2016 and $650 million of notes due 2017.

        As of June 30, 2013, clients and other receivable accounts decreased by €144.7 million, or 6.4%, compared to December 31, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in accounts receivable from the Engineering and Construction projects of the Mojave solar plant in California, the solar plants in South Africa and the Hugoton second generation biofuels plant in the United States, due to collections during the period for a total amount of €243.5 million. This effect was partially offset by the increase in unbilled revenues in most of our Engineering and Construction companies during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. Unbilled revenues are related to projects in our Engineering and Construction activity (especially large projects under construction). As a general rule, we aim to bill amounts under unbilled revenues within the three months following completion of the work being performed on the project. Nevertheless, given the highly tailored characteristics of some construction contracts, some projects may take longer to be billed due to specific billing milestones in the contracts. These balances do not include any receivables relating to customer claims being supported by contracts signed with such customers.

        As of December 31, 2012, clients and other receivable accounts increased by €465.0 million, or 25.7%, compared to December 31, 2011. This increase was primarily due to the application of IFRS 10 and 11 as of December 31, 2012 as the de-consolidation of certain entities previously consolidated globally or proportionally resulted in the recognition of accounts receivable of the Group with those companies. This effect was partially offset with the decrease in unbilled revenues due to our ongoing effort to bill within three months following the completion of the work being performed on the project. Unbilled revenues were related to projects in our Engineering and Construction activity (especially large projects under construction, such as Solana and Mojave (two solar thermal plants in the United States), several transmission lines in Latin America, the solar thermal plant Shams-1 facility in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates) and the combined cycled electricity power plant in Morelos (Mexico)). Of the total amount of unbilled revenues outstanding as of June 30, 2013 of €522.0 million, we have billed approximately 22.8% as of August 31, 2013. Of the total amount of unbilled revenues outstanding as of December 31, 2012, 37.2% has been carried forward to June 30, 2013. The unbilled balance that has not been billed yet will be billed in the upcoming months according to the milestones of each specific project, which means approximately 10% per month, except for those projects that will be billed at the end of the construction, so that the total amount is realizable. These balances do not include any receivables relating to customer claims being supported by contracts signed with such customers.

        As of December 31, 2011, clients and other receivable accounts decreased by €335.1 million, or 15.6%, compared to December 31, 2010. This decrease was primarily the result of the deconsolidation of trade receivables and other accounts receivable of Telvent of €474 million, as a result of our divestment of Telvent, in September 2011 which were partially offset by the increase in unbilled revenues related to new engineering and construction activities (especially in large projects in construction such as several transmission lines in Latin America, the solar-thermal plant Shams-1 facility in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab

        As of June 30, 2013, the average remaining life of our concessions was approximately 26 years. Concessions consist of long-term projects awarded to, and undertaken by, Group entities (in conjunction with other companies or on an exclusive basis), typically over a term of 20 to 30 years. For further information on our backlog and concessions, see "— Factors Affecting our Results of Operations — Backlog and Concessions."

Financing Arrangements

        We utilize two main sources of financing to meet our financial commitments: corporate debt and non-recourse debt. We use our corporate debt to finance our investments (including in joint ventures and financing at the project company level) and for general corporate purposes. Our corporate debt is used by all of our activities and is primarily incurred by the Company with upstream guarantees from our main operating subsidiaries. We define non-recourse as debt that is generally used for constructing or acquiring an asset, which is guaranteed by the assets and cash flows of the company or group of companies carrying out the financed activities. We generally finance the construction of our own operations by means of non-recourse debt at the project company level. Non-recourse debt is the principal means of financing for project construction in our Engineering and Construction activity, our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity and our Industrial Production activity. We believe that we have sufficient corporate debt in place, together with non-recourse debt and cash flows, to fund and adequately support our existing operations and finance our expansion.

        The Company is subject to one single financial covenant under the majority of the corporate facilities consisting of the maintenance of a Corporate Net Finance Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (as such terms are defined therein) lower than 3.00x until December 30, 2014 and lower than 2.50x thereafter. As of June 30, 2013 this ratio stood at 2.32x which means that the Company has an additional €581 million corporate borrow capacity without incurring a breach of covenants, considering the last twelve month consolidated EBITDA (as defined therein) of €857.9 million.

        As of June 30, 2013, we had a total net debt (including other loans and borrowings) as calculated below of €7,327.9 million outstanding, the majority of which is long-term financing. Our borrowings consist principally of corporate debt and non-recourse debt and loans received from public organizations in connection with certain of our projects. As of June 30, 2013, we had €5,252 million of indebtedness with recourse at the corporate level, €5,297.6 million of non-recourse debt and €3,221.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and short-term financial investments, resulting in total net debt (including other loans and borrowings) of €7,327.9 million.

2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement

Overview

        On April 27, 2012, we entered into a forward start facility agreement (the "2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement") with a group of lenders which was amended and restated as of May 22, 2012 and July 11, 2012 as additional financial institutions acceded to the agreement as lenders, raising the total aggregate amount to €1,663 million.

Guarantees

        The 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement is guaranteed on a senior basis by the following guarantors: Abeínsa Ingeniería y Construcción Industrial S.A., Abencor Suministros S.A., Abener Energía S.A., Abengoa Bioenergía S.A., Abengoa Bioenergy Company, LLC, Abengoa Mexico S.A., Abentel Telecomunicaciones S.A., ASA Investment Brasil Ltda., Befesa Desulfuración S.A., Ecoagrícola S.A., Instalaciones Inabensa S.A., Negocios Industriales y Comerciales S.A., Abeinsa Infraestructuras Medio Ambiente S.A., Bioetanol Galicia S.A., Abengoa Bioenergy New Technologies, LLC, Abengoa Bioenergy of Nebraska LLC, Teyma Gestión de Contratos de Construcción e Ingeniería S.A., Inabensa Río Ltda, Teyma Internacional S.A., Nicsamex S.A., Abentey Gerenciamiento de Projectos de Engenharia e Construções Ltda, Abengoa Bioenergy Trading Europe B.V., Abengoa Concessoes Brasil Holding, Teyma USA & Abener Engineering and Construction Services General Partnership, Europea de Construcciones Metálicas S.A., Construcciones Metálicas Méxicanas Comemsa S.A., Abengoa Solar S.A., Abengoa Water S.L., Siema Technologies S.L, Abener Teyma Hugoton General Partnership, Abener Teyma Mojave General Partnership, Abengoa Solar New Technologies, S.A., Centro Morelos 264 SA de C.V. and Teyma Uruguay ZF S.A. (the "2012 Facility Guarantors").

        The respective guarantees of the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement provided by Abengoa Bioenergía and Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U. ("Befesa") and Abengoa Solar, S.A. ("Abengoa Solar") (if at such time Abengoa Solar had provided a guarantee) may be extinguished in respect of any such company (along with the guarantees provided by any of their respective subsidiaries) if any of these companies sell, whether by public offerings or otherwise, 10% or more of their share capital, provided that, after the release of the guarantee (which shall be automatic subject to Abengoa maintaining at least 50% of their share capital) of either Befesa, Abengoa Bioenergía or Abengoa Solar in such circumstances, the release of the guarantee of the remaining two subsidiaries subsequent to such public offerings is subject to the unanimous consent of the lenders under the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). Consequently, the Befesa Sale required the consent of the lenders and such consent was obtained.

Table of Contents

        With respect to the guarantees of the remaining 2012 Facility Guarantors, in the event of certain sales of 10% or more of their share capital, the guarantees provided by each guarantor will be automatically extinguished, subject to certain exceptions.

Guarantor Coverage Test

        The 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement requires that the total consolidated assets and the aggregate EBITDA of the 2012 Facility Guarantors jointly with Abengoa represent at least 75% of total consolidated assets and 75% of Consolidated EBITDA, respectively. In calculating consolidated assets and Consolidated EBITDA, the following items are excluded: (i) Group companies created for the sole purpose of undertaking projects under a system of long-term financing without recourse against another Group member; (ii) acquisitions made without recourse financing; (iii) the assets and EBITDA of Befesa and/or Abengoa Bioenergía and/or Abengoa Solar in the event of disposal of their shares as provided therein; and (iv) Group companies in respect of which legal restrictions exist on their guaranteed amounts payable by us pursuant to the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement (but only insofar as such restrictions affect the whole of the guaranteed amounts). If this specified minimum is not satisfied, then we must ensure that additional guarantors accede to the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement in order to maintain compliance with the guarantor coverage test.

        In the event that a guarantee provided by Befesa, Abengoa Bioenergía or Abengoa Solar is subsequently released pursuant to the abovementioned provisions described under the section "Guarantees," the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement requires that the aggregate EBITDA of the remaining 2012 Facility Guarantors jointly with Abengoa represents at least 85% of total consolidated assets and 85% of Consolidated EBITDA.

Security

Table of Contents

        As of June 30, 2013, €551 million is outstanding under the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement.

Mandatory Prepayment

        We are obligated to repay Tranche A and Tranche B on a pro rata basis with the proceeds from a sale by public offering of the shares of Befesa and/or Abengoa Bioenergía and/or Abengoa Solar of which we are the direct or indirect owner, to the extent necessary in order that the Debt Ratio (as defined and calculated therein) is equal to or less than 2.0 at the end of the relevant period (as defined therein).

        In the event of sale of assets corresponding to Discontinued Activities (as defined therein), 30% of the net cash proceeds must be put towards mandatory prepayment to each of the Tranches and Sub-Tranches under the 2012 Forward Start Facility. In the event of sale of a participation in the share capital of certain Group companies, 30% of the net cash proceeds that exceeds the nominal amount of such share capital and the proportional debt of the relevant sold company will be put towards mandatory prepayment. In the event of sale of other assets exceeding €10 million, 30% of net cash proceeds that exceeds the book value of such assets, once discounted for their replacement value, as applicable, must be put towards mandatory prepayment. In each case, provided however, the amounts put towards mandatory prepayment shall not exceed €90 million per fiscal year and/or transaction related to the same business of the Group within 12 months, or €400 million for the life of the 2012 Forward Start Facility.

        This obligatory early repayment shall not exceed €100 million with respect to the proceeds of such sale of shares in Befesa, €50 million with respect to the proceeds of such sale of shares in Abengoa Bioenergía and €100 million with respect to the proceeds of such sale of shares in Abengoa Solar. Such obligatory early repayment is limited to the principal amount pending repayment under Tranche A and Tranche B at the date of the repayment.

Interest Rates and Fees

        The annual interest rate on borrowings is calculated based on EURIBOR, plus a margin. From the date of the first drawdown of funds made by us under Tranche A or Tranche B to January 27, 2013, the margin will be set at 3.75%; after January 27, 2013 until January 27, 2015, the margin will be set at 4.00%; and after January 27, 2015 until July 20, 2016, the final maturity date, the margin will be set at 4.25%.

        We are also obligated to pay a commitment fee on undrawn amounts under Tranche A and B. Other fees are also payable, including an agency commission, structuring commission, loyalty commission and certain mandatory costs.

Covenants

        Availability of amounts under the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement is subject to compliance with a financial maintenance covenant. At the end of each annual and semi-annual consolidated financial statement period, the ratio of Net Finance Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (as such terms are defined therein) should be lower than 3.00 to 1.00 until December 30, 2014, following which the ratio should be lower than 2.50 to 1.00.

        Subject in each case to certain exceptions, the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement also contains negative covenants and restrictions, including, among other things, restrictions on the granting of security, restrictions on the provision of loans and guarantees, restrictions on the disposal of assets and restrictions on a change of business. Furthermore, we must retain certain ownership levels of the guarantors (at least 50% of the share capital) as well as of Abengoa Solar, Befesa and Abengoa Bioenergía, limit the net debt of our non-guarantor subsidiaries (excluding non-recourse debt) and apply the proceeds from certain sales of the shares of Abengoa Solar, Befesa and Abengoa Bioenergía in specified ways as described above. Consequently, the Befesa Sale required the consent of the lenders and such consent was obtained. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Acquisitions and

177


Table of Contents

Divestments—Sale of Befesa." The 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement also contains affirmative covenants such as for the mandatory periodic reporting of financial and other information and for notification upon the occurrence of any default and certain other events.

        Under the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement, we are obligated to not permit the Net Financial Debt (as defined therein) of the subsidiaries who are not 2012 Facility Guarantors (excluding the indebtedness of project companies and certain acquisitions without recourse) at any time to exceed €100 million. Nevertheless, in the event that either Befesa or Abengoa Bioenergía or Abengoa Solar are no longer 2010 Facility Guarantors in accordance with certain provisions of the 2012 Forward Start Facilities Agreement, the maximum limit increases to €150 million.

Change of Control

        The Majority of the Lenders (as defined in the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement) have the ability to require early repayment of all outstanding borrowings under the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement, together with accrued interest and all accrued commissions and expenses, upon a person or entity gaining control of us. Control of the borrower is described as either: (i) the ownership of more than 50% of our capital; or (ii) the ability and power to: (a) control 50% or more of our voting shares; (b) appoint or remove 50% or more of the members of our management; or (c) create directives regarding our operating and financial policies.

Events of Default

        The 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement contains provisions governing certain events of default, including the failure to make payment of the amounts due, defaults under other agreements evidencing indebtedness over a certain threshold, failure to comply with covenants or other obligations, material misrepresentations, events which have a material adverse effect on us, certain bankruptcy events, a cessation of business and the loss of control over any guarantor or Abengoa Solar except in compliance with the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of payment obligations under the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement.

2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement

Overview

        On April 22, 2010, we entered into a forward start facility agreement (the "2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement") with a group of lenders. The 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement provided, among other things, for borrowings of up to €1,571,181,618, comprising up to €1,216,584,396 by way of a facility ("Tranche A") and up to €354,597,222 by way of a further facility ("Tranche B"). Tranche A comprised a sub-tranche in an amount of €380,243,807 ("Sub-Tranche A1"), a sub-tranche in an amount of €389,589,930 ("Sub-Tranche A2") and a sub-tranche in an amount of €446,750,659 ("Sub-Tranche A3"). The 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement matured on July 20, 2013 and was fully repaid. The 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement was governed by Spanish law.

Purpose

        All funds drawn under Sub-Tranche A1 were used for the partial refinancing of the repayment installments under the 2005 Credit Facility, payable on July 20, 2010 and July 20, 2011. All funds drawn down under Sub-Tranche A2 were used for the partial refinancing of the repayment installments under the 2006 Credit Facility, payable on July 20, 2010 and July 20, 2011. All funds drawn down under Sub-Tranche A3 were used for the partial refinancing of the repayment installments under the €600 million commercial credit facility granted to us by a syndicate of lenders under an agreement executed on July 24, 2007 which was paid on July 20, 2011. Funds drawn down under Tranche B must be used by us for general corporate purposes.

Borrower

        Abengoa was the original borrower under the 2010 Forward Start Facility.

Guarantees

        The guarantors were the same as those in the 2012 Forward Start Facility Agreement.

        The respective guarantees of the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement provided by Abengoa Bioenergía and Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L. ("Befesa") and Abengoa Solar, S.A. ("Abengoa Solar") (if at such time Abengoa Solar had provided a guarantee) could have been extinguished in respect of any such company (along with the guarantees provided by any of their respective subsidiaries) if any of these companies sold by certain public offerings 10% or more of their share capital, provided that, after the release of the guarantee (which would be automatic, subject to Abengoa maintaining at least 50% of their share capital) of either Befesa, Abengoa Bioenergía or Abengoa Solar in such circumstances, the release of the guarantee of the remaining two subsidiaries subsequent to such public offerings was subject to the unanimous consent of the lenders under the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement. Consequently, the Befesa Sale required the consent of the lenders and such consent was obtained.

        With respect to the guarantees of the remaining 2010 Facility Guarantors, in the event of certain sales of 10% or more of their share capital, the guarantees provided by each guarantor would be automatically extinguished, subject to certain exceptions.

Guarantor Coverage Test

        The 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement required that the total consolidated assets and the aggregate EBITDA of the 2010 Facility Guarantors jointly with Abengoa represented at least 75% of total consolidated assets and 75% of Consolidated EBITDA, respectively. In calculating consolidated assets and Consolidated EBITDA, the following items were excluded: (i) Group companies created for the sole purpose of undertaking projects under a system of long-term financing without recourse against another Group member; (ii) acquisitions made without recourse financing; (iii) the assets and EBITDA of Befesa and/or Abengoa Bioenergía and/or Abengoa Solar in the event of disposal of their shares as provided therein; and (iv) Group companies in respect of which legal restrictions exist on their guaranteed amounts payable by us pursuant to the 2010 Forward Start Facility (but only insofar as such restrictions affect the whole of the guaranteed amounts). If this specified minimum was not satisfied, then we would have ensured that additional guarantors acceded to the 2010 Forward Start Facilities Agreement in order to maintain compliance with the guarantor coverage test.

        In the event that a guarantee provided by Befesa, Abengoa Bioenergía or Abengoa Solar was subsequently released pursuant to the provisions described under the section entitled "Guarantees," the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement required that the aggregate EBITDA of the remaining 2010 Facility Guarantors jointly represent at least 85% of total consolidated assets and 85% of Consolidated EBITDA.

Security

        The obligations under the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement were not secured.

The said obligatory early repayment was limited to the principal amount pending repayment under Tranche A and Tranche B at the date of the repayment.

Interest Rates and Fees

As of the end of each annual and semi-annual Consolidated Financial Statement period, the ratio of Net Finance Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (as such terms are defined therein) should have been equal to or less than 3.00 to 1.00.

        Subject in each case to certain exceptions, the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement also contained negative covenants and restrictions, including, among other things, restrictions on the granting of security, restrictions on the provision of loans and guarantees, restrictions on the disposal of assets and restrictions on a change of business. Furthermore, we had to retain certain ownership levels of the guarantors (at least 50% of the share capital) as well as of Abengoa Solar, Befesa and Abengoa Bioenergía, limit the net debt of our non-guarantor subsidiaries (excluding non-recourse debt) and apply the proceeds from certain sales of the shares of Abengoa Solar, Befesa and Abengoa Bioenergía in specified ways. Consequently, the Befesa Sale required the consent of the lenders and such consent was obtained. The 2010 Forward Start Facility

Agreement also contained affirmative covenants such as for the mandatory periodic reporting of financial and other information and for notification upon the occurrence of any default and certain other events.

        Under the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement, we were obligated to not permit the Net Financial Debt (as defined therein) of its subsidiaries who were not 2010 Facility Guarantors (excluding the indebtedness of project companies and certain acquisitions without recourse) at any time to exceed €100 million. Nevertheless, in the event that either Befesa or Abengoa Bioenergía or Abengoa Solar were no longer 2010 Facility Guarantors in accordance with certain provisions of the Forward Start Facilities Agreement, the maximum limit increased to €150 million.

Change of Control

        The majority of the lenders had the ability to require early repayment of all outstanding borrowings under the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement, together with accrued interest and all accrued commissions and expenses, upon a person or entity gaining control of us. Control of the borrower was described as either: (i) the ownership of more than 50% of our capital; or (ii) the ability and power to: (a) control 50% or more of our voting shares; (b) remove 50% or more of the members of our management; or (c) create directives regarding our operating and financial policies.

Events of Default

        The 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement contained provisions governing certain events of default, including, the failure to make payment of the amounts due, defaults under other agreements evidencing indebtedness over a certain threshold, failure to comply with covenants or other obligations, material misrepresentations, events which had a material adverse effect on us, certain bankruptcy events, a cessation of business and the loss of control over any guarantor or Abengoa Solar except in compliance with the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement. The occurrence of an event of default could have resulted in the acceleration of payment obligations under the 2010 Forward Start Facility Agreement.

In the event of sale of other assets exceeding €10 million, 30% of net cash proceeds that exceeds the book value of such assets, once discounted for their replacement value, as applicable, must be put towards mandatory prepayment.

        The debt referenced in the table above is subject to fixed and floating interest rate payments, as described in the facilities or instruments thereto.

        At the corporate level we also incur purchase obligations for the purchase of goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on us. These contractual commitments specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased, fixed, minimum or variable price provisions and the appropriate timing of the transactions.

Non-Recourse Debt

        Compared to corporate debt, non-recourse debt has certain key advantages, including a clearly defined risk profile, lower funding costs, generally longer terms and its ability to enable higher leverage on a project company basis.

        We incur non-recourse debt either through special-purpose project companies that are established to finance multiple projects or businesses and in certain instances, special-purpose project companies established for a single project. In each case, the project company enters into the financing agreement directly with the relevant lender for a specific project. The basis of the financing agreement between the project company and lender details the allocation of the cash flows generated by the project and the amortization schedule of payments owed under the financing agreement. Under such arrangements, any claims against the assets of the project company are subordinated to those of the lender or lenders, if multiple

199


Table of Contents

projects have been financed through the project company, until the financing is repaid in full, but the lender or lenders only have recourse to the project company's assets and not to the shareholder of the project company or the sponsor of the project. Consequently, the cross-default provisions of Abengoa's borrowings do not apply to defaults of project companies, thus safeguarding the non-recourse nature of the project financings. We also incur non-recourse debt as corporate debt of a subsidiary of Abengoa, S.A. under which the holders of such debt do not have recourse to Abengoa, S.A. or any of its other subsidiaries.

        Our non-recourse debt contains customary financial covenants, including maintaining or exceeding certain financial ratios, and limitations on capital expenditures and additional debt.

        Our activities, in particular our Engineering and Construction activity, regularly operate as contractors or service providers to the project company to either construct or maintain the project for third-party owner or sponsor of the project and may also undertake certain obligations for the project company. Although we are usually required to provide credit and other support to the project company in relation to its trading activities (by way of performance bonds, guarantees or other commitments), we do not provide, with certain limited exceptions, any credit support for the repayment of the project company's debt obligations. We have, from time to time, provided guarantees of obligations of certain project companies incurred under working capital facilities of such project companies, other contingent obligations, and letters of credit or guarantees replacing amounts withdrawn by us from debt service reserve accounts held by project companies. These guarantees, letters of credit and other contingent liabilities have been incurred from time to time for reasons relating to the unique circumstances of the relevant project company or the history of its acquisition or development.

Capital Expenditures

        Our business has significant capital expenditure requirements, including construction of concession-type infrastructure and other industrial facilities, as well as R&D&i costs. Our capital expenditure requirements include construction costs of power transmission lines, solar power plants, co-generation power plants, infrastructure for the production of ethanol, and desalination plants. While we generally seek to maintain a balance of non-recourse debt and corporate debt to encourage financial discipline, the majority of our capital expenditures are financed by non-recourse debt and funding, when applicable, from partners in a particular project. We incur corporate debt to finance our investments, acquisitions and general purpose requirements. Our corporate debt has the benefit of upstream guarantees from our operating subsidiaries which are subject to debt/EBITDA ratios as discussed above. The funding of our corporate capital expenditure is covered by existing cash and corporate EBITDA generation. We incur non-recourse debt on a project-by-project basis, and we do not commit to any projects that we have been awarded prior to securing long-term financing.

        The table below sets forth our historic capital expenditures by our three activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

        As of June 30, 2013, we had committed capital expenditures of €1,875 million, of which €331 million is expected to be undertaken by subsidiaries in our corporate group and financed through corporate debt or equity contributions. The remaining €1,544 million consists of commitments that are expected to be undertaken by our project companies and will be financed primarily through non-recourse debt and funding from partners at project companies. Corporate entities also engage in regular maintenance capital expenditures as necessary in order to ensure the adequate performance of our existing facilities.

        The following table represents management's estimate, as of June 30, 2013, of the costs to complete our committed capital expenditures. The estimates presented in the table below may differ significantly from the actual costs which are incurred in connection with these expenditures. See "Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business and the Markets in Which We Operate — Our business has substantial capital expenditure requirements which requires us to have access to the global capital markets for financing."

Table of Contents

        The figures above include our two most significant capital expenditures being undertaken in the United States:

    A 30-year power purchase agreement with Arizona Public Service Company to operate and sell the output of the 280 MW CSP plant (Solana) which represents $1,900 million of total expected investment. We have obtained a $1,450 million loan guarantee from the DOE for the Solana project, covering approximately 75% of the total investment. On October 2, 2013, we announced that Liberty Interactive Corporation is investing $300 million in the limited liability company that holds the Solana project. Liberty's investment is attributed to its Liberty Ventures Group.

    A 25-year power purchase agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company to operate and sell the output of a 280 MW CSP plant in the Mojave Desert, which represents an expected total investment of $1,600 million. We have obtained a $1,202 million loan guarantee from the DOE for the Mojave project, covering approximately 75% of the total investment. The Mojave project is also eligible for the 30% Investment Tax Credit Renewable Energy Grant.

        In addition to the investment projects included in our committed capital expenditures plan, we also manage an uncommitted capital expenditures plan that consists of investment opportunities for which we have not yet secured committed long-term non-recourse debt financing. Our uncommitted capital expenditures plan is focused on investment projects in our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity related to the construction and operation of two CSP plants and a water management project that meet our internal rate of return criteria. As of June 30, 2013, we had uncommitted capital expenditures of € 450 million. We estimate that the aggregate amount that will be required to fund our equity contribution for these opportunities will be approximately €120 million. The remaining €330 million are un-commitments expected to be undertaken by our project companies and to be financed primarily through non-recourse debt and funding from partners at project companies. This estimate is based upon management's estimates as of the date of this prospectus and due to certain assumptions (including assumptions regarding financing conditions) is inherently uncertain and may differ significantly from our actual equity contribution if we were to undertake such projects. See "Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

        As of June 30, 2013, the following significant projects that have been awarded are included in our uncommitted capital expenditures plan, for which we are currently seeking financing: two 50 MW CSP plants in Spain and a contract for the development of El Zapotillo aqueduct project in Mexico.

        None of the foregoing projects is included in our committed capital expenditure table above as each remains uncommitted, subject to obtaining long-term financing. Once we obtain long-term financing for a project, it will be transferred to our committed capital expenditures plan.

        Additionally, we have a pipeline of projects in the development stage for which we are either in the process of tendering or negotiating. Our pipeline represents projects that we have yet to be awarded and as such are not included in our uncommitted capital expenditures plan.

Dividends

        During 2012, we paid €37.7 million in dividends (€0.07 per share), a first payment of €0.03 per share was made on April 11 and the remaining €0.04 per share was paid on July 4, which represented a dividend payout ratio of 10%. We have stated an increase of €0.002 per share per year in the dividend protection clause existing in both of our outstanding convertible bonds, which is consistent with dividend increases from recent years. Our dividend policy is subject to our performance and financial condition, our investment and capital expenditure requirements, possible future acquisitions, expected future results of operations, cash flows, terms of our indebtedness and other factors.

        On April 7, 2013, our General Shareholders' Meeting was held, which approved, among other resolutions agreed to by our Board of Directors, a dividend payment of €0.072 per share which was entirely

paid in one gross payment on April 9, 2013. The €0.072 per share dividend payment represents a dividend payout ratio of 70%.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

        Our activities are undertaken through our segments and are exposed to market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and capital risk. Risk management is the responsibility of our corporate finance department in accordance with mandatory internal management rules. The internal management rules provide written policies for the management of overall risk, as well as for specific areas, such as exchange rate risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, use of hedging instruments and derivatives, and the investment of excess cash.

Market Risk

        We are exposed to market risk, such as movement in foreign exchange rates, interest rates, changes in the prices of assets and commodities purchased (principally zinc, aluminum, grain, ethanol, sugar and gas). All of these market risks arise in the normal course of business and we do not carry out speculative operations. For the purpose of managing these risks, we use a series of forward sale contracts, swaps and options on exchange rates, interest rates and raw materials. None of the derivative contracts signed has an unlimited lose exposure.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

        Foreign exchange risks arise (i) from commercial transactions to be settled in the future, for which assets and liabilities are not denominated in the functional currency of the entity and (ii) from financial liabilities denominated in a different currency from the functional currency of the subsidiary.

        Risks from commercial transactions: To manage foreign exchange risks arising from commercial transactions, we purchase forward purchase/sale contracts. Such contracts provide protection related to the fair value of future cash flow. Approximately 95% of projected transactions which are not denominated in our functional currency qualify as highly probable forecast transactions for hedge accounting purposes. The main exchange rate exposures relate to the U.S. Dollar and the euro. Our foreign exchange risks mainly relate to our operations in connection with purchases and sales in a currency other than the functional currency, mostly affecting the U.S. Dollar against the euro. These purchases and sales, other than in the functional currency, are hedged through our purchase of future currency sale/purchase contracts. Specifically, an appreciation of the U.S. Dollar against the euro would result in a decrease/increase of our purchase costs/sale price in the profit and loss account, which would be compensated by the derivatives purchased, to the extent that the transactions have been hedged. We would recognize a net gain or loss in the income statement from the net assets or liabilities that remain unhedged.

        In the event that the exchange rate of the U.S. Dollar had risen (/decreased) by 10% against the euro on December 31, 2012, with the rest of the variables remaining constant, the effect in the profit and loss accounts would have been a decrease in profit (/loss) of €10.60 million, mainly due to our U.S. Dollar unhedged net liability position in companies with euro functional currency and a decrease in other reserves of €2.44 million, respectively, as a result of the cash flow hedging effects on highly-probable future transactions.

Interest Rate Risk

        Interest rate risks arise mainly from our financial liabilities at variable interest rate. To mitigate interest rate risk, we use interest rate swaps and interest rate options (caps and collars).

205


Table of Contents

        As a result, the notional amounts hedged, strikes contracted and maturities, depending on the characteristics of the debt on which the interest rate risk is being hedged, are very diverse, including the following:

    a)
    Corporate debt: between 66% and 100% of the notional amount, with maturities up to 2021 and average guaranteed interest rates of between 1.05% and 4.75% for loans referenced to the 1-month and 3-month EURIBOR rates; and

    b)
    Non-recourse debt:

    1)
    Non-recourse debt in euro: between 75% and 100% of the notional amount, maturities until 2032 and average guaranteed interest rates of between 2.00% and 5.25%; and

    2)
    Non-recourse debt in U.S. Dollars: between 80% and 100% of the notional amount, maturities until 2028 average guaranteed interest rates of between 0.35% and 5%.

        In connection with our interest rate derivative positions, the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements are derived from the changes in EURIBOR, which represents the reference interest rate for the majority of our corporate and non-recourse debt.

        In relation to our interest rate swaps positions, an increase in EURIBOR above the contracted fixed interest rate would create an increase in our financial expense which would be positively mitigated by our hedges, reducing our financial expenses to our contracted fixed interest rate. However, an increase in EURIBOR that does not exceed the contracted fixed interest rate would not be offset by our derivative position and would result in a net financial loss recognized in our consolidated income statement. Conversely, a decrease in EURIBOR below the contracted fixed interest rate would result in lower interest expense on our variable rate debt, which would be offset by a negative impact from the mark-to-market of our hedges, increasing our financial expenses up to our contracted fixed interest rate, thus resulting in a likely neutral effect.

        In relation to our interest rate options positions, an increase in EURIBOR above the strike price would result in higher interest expenses which would be positively mitigated by our hedges, reducing our financial expenses to our capped interest rate, whereas a decrease of EURIBOR below the strike price would result in lower interest expenses.

        In addition to the above, our results of operations can be affected by changes in interest rates with respect to the unhedged portion of our indebtedness that bears interest at floating rates.

        In the event that EURIBOR interest rates had risen by 25 basis points on December 31, 2012, with the rest of the variables remaining constant, the effect in the income statement would have been a profit of €4.00 million, mainly due to the fair value increase due to the time value of the interest rate caps designated as hedges and an increase of €52.16 million in other reserves as a result of the fair value increase of interest rate swaps, caps and collars designated as hedges.

Commodity Risk

        The risk of commodity price changes through both the sale of products and services as well as the purchase of commodities for production processes. In general, we use forward purchase contracts and options that are listed on organized markets, as well as over-the-counter ("OTC") contracts with financial institutions, to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations.

        The most significant impacts on our consolidated financial statements derived from commodity risks are related to the price and supply of grains such as wheat, barley, corn and sorghum, sugar, ethanol and gas. Prior to the completion of the Befesa Sale, our commodity risks also included the prices of zinc, aluminum and steel.

206


Table of Contents

        In relation to our bioethanol production, prices of inputs (grain, sugarcane, natural gas and others) and prices of outputs (ethanol, sugar, DGS and others) are affected by market forces that are independent from each other. Consequently, an increase in the cost of grains or other inputs would increase our production costs for ethanol, sugar, DGS and other products. These increases may be compensated by hedges in place to cover highly probable future purchases that have been contracted to fix the purchase price of inputs, which could neutralize some input price volatility on a transaction-by-transaction basis.

        In addition, an increase in ethanol, sugar, DGS and other production costs cannot be directly converted into higher selling prices, since the prices of these outputs are referenced to market trading prices. We seek to mitigate the volatility in the output prices by purchasing OTC derivatives.

        These hedging strategies are implemented in order to manage the spread between the prices of inputs and outputs by securing the production costs of each transaction where the output prices are fixed by contract. As a result of the combination of these two strategies, increases or decreases in market prices of ethanol and/or grains affect the spread that can be secured for each transaction, but do not eliminate volatility in net income, since the spread fluctuates in each transaction.

        Gas hedging strategies are carried out together with other commodities, as described above, in order to manage our exposure to changes in energy prices. Therefore, depending on forward production sales and on the types of contracts, we may hedge the cost of our natural gas consumption. These hedging transactions are usually OTC natural gas swaps that are only traded with investment-grade counterparties and are recorded as financial derivatives for cash flow hedging. As of December 31, 2012, we have only traded natural gas hedging swaps in the United States, and have no hedging in place in Europe, although our ethanol sale contracts with Repsol YPF, S.A. ("Repsol") enable us to pass on this cost. We do not have any energy contracts that could generate material losses to our consolidated financial statements if the corresponding energy prices were to decrease.

        In addition, certain of our subsidiaries have engaged in purchase and sale transactions in the grain and ethanol markets, in accordance with management trading policy. These operations reflect the implementation of management-approved strategies for the purchase and sale of forward and swap contracts, mainly for grain and ethanol, which are controlled and reported on daily following the procedures established under our trading policy. As a risk-mitigation element, we set daily limits or "stop losses" for each strategy and, depending on the market in which we are operating, the financial instruments purchased and the risks defined in the transaction.

        In relation to zinc and steel, the most significant impact derives from increases in their prices, which would result in an increase in our revenue. This increase would be compensated by hedges to cover company sales that have been purchased to fix the price for approximately two-year periods, resulting in a likely neutral effect.

        In relation to the cost of aluminum, which is purchased and then sold, an increase in the price of aluminum would result in an increase in both our cost (from the purchase transactions) and our revenue (from sale transactions) resulting in a natural hedge.

        The table below shows a breakdown of the maturities of notional amounts for the commodity price derivatives designated as cash flow hedges for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, including zinc and aluminum derivatives obtained prior to the completion of the Befesa Sale:

        There were no commodity price derivatives not designated as hedges as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

        At December 31, 2012, if the price of zinc had increased by 10%, with all other variables remaining constant, the effect on the income statement would have been a profit of €3.90 million, due to the unhedged portion of our sale transactions and a decrease in other reserves of €5.29 million, due to the effect of cash flow hedges that we maintain.

        At December 31, 2012, if the price of grain had increased by 10%, with all other variables remaining constant, the effect in the consolidated income statement would have been a loss of €35,092 thousand and a reduction in other reserves of €16,391 thousand due to open derivative contracts primarily grain sales held by the Group.

        At December 31, 2012, if the price of ethanol had increased by 10%, with all other variables remaining constant, the effect in the consolidated income statement would have been a profit of €11,035 thousand

Credit Risk

        Trade and other receivables, current financial investments and cash are the main financial assets of the company and present the greatest exposure to credit risk in the event that a third-party does not comply with its obligations.

        Most of our receivables relate to our customers who operate in a range of industries and countries with contracts that require ongoing payments as the project advances, the service is rendered or upon delivery of the product. It is common practice for us to reserve the right to cancel the work in the event of a material breach, especially non-payment. In addition, we rely on written confirmation for the non-recourse purchase of accounts receivable (factoring). In these arrangements, we pay a bank fee to assume the credit risk as well as interest charges for the financing component.

        In this regard, derecognizing of factored accounts receivable is taken only when all the requirements of IAS 39, Financial instruments; Recognition and Measurement are met. Therefore, we consider whether or not the risks and rewards inherent in the ownership of the asset have been transferred, including a comparison of our risk before and after the transfer, considering the amounts and timing of net cash payments to be received. Once the risk to the grantor company has been eliminated or is considered to be substantially reduced, it is considered that the financial asset in fact has been transferred.

        In general, our greatest risk is the risk of not collecting a trade account receivable. This is our greatest risk because it may be of significant value in the development of a project or in the provision of a service and it is not within our control. However, for those contracts in which there is a possibility of customer payment delay, with no commercial justification, could theoretically be identified as a risk associated to the financial asset, and so we establish that, not only should the risk of legal insolvency (bankruptcy, etc.) be covered, but also that of de facto or evident insolvency (arising from the client's management of its own cash, even though there is no "general moratorium").

        As indicated, it is our policy to transfer the credit risk associated with our customers and other accounts receivable through the use of non-recourse factoring. As such, with regard to considering risks inherent with debtors and other accounts receivable on the statement of financial position, amounts can be excluded that relate to works completed and awaiting certification for which factoring contracts are in place, as well as amounts which could be factored which are outstanding to be submitted to the financial entity providing the factoring, and also those debtors included which are covered by an insurance policy.

        The following table shows the maturity detail of trade receivables for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010:

Liquidity Risk

        The objective of our financing and liquidity policy is to ensure that we maintain sufficient funds to meet our financial obligations as they fall due.

        To ensure there are sufficient funds available for debt repayment in relation to its cash-generating capacity, the Corporate Financial Department annually prepares and the Board of Directors reviews a Financial Plan that details all the financing needs and how such financing will be provided. We fund in advance disbursements for major cash requirements, such as capital expenditures, debt repayments and working capital requirements. In addition, as a general rule, we do not commit our own equity in projects until the associated long term financing is obtained.

        We have maintained our financing needs covered for 2012 since we completed refinancing in 2012 of syndicated loans as well as new financing transactions in subsidiaries which have the support of export credit agencies. In addition, in January and February 2013, we issued €400 million convertible notes due 2019 and €250 million ordinary notes due 2018 in order to extend debt maturities.

        We aim to maintain our strong liquidity position, extend the debt maturities of our existing corporate loans and bonds, continue to access the capital markets from time to time, as appropriate, and further diversify our funding sources. We aim to continue to raise equity funding at the project company level through partnerships.

        In accordance with the above, we have a policy to diversify our sources of finance in order to prevent concentration of financing sources that may limit our working capital liquidity risk.

Capital risk

        We manage capital risk to ensure the continuity of the activities of our subsidiaries from an equity standpoint by maximizing the return for the shareholders and optimizing the structure of equity and debt in the respective companies or projects.

        The leverage objective of the activities of the company is not measured based on the level of debt on own resources, but on the nature of the activities:

    For activities financed through non-recourse financing, each project is assigned a leverage objective based on the cash and cash flow generating capacity, generally, of contracts that provide these projects with highly recurrent and predictable levels of cash flow generation.

    For activities financed with corporate financing, the objective is to maintain reasonable leverage, defined as three (3) times Corporate EBITDA over Net Corporate Debt (excluding the non-recourse EBITDA and the non-recourse financing).

INDUSTRY AND MARKET OPPORTUNITY

        Over the last decade, global investment in the renewable energy and environmental sectors has witnessed significant growth. Moreover, energy scarcity, the focus on reduction of carbon emissions, and the potential increased costs of building and operating nuclear plants are expected to continue to drive renewable technology. We expect this to continue both in the short- and long-term and expect that this will support demand for our products and services. Overall energy demand is expected to increase by 1.2% per year from 2010 through 2035, while fossil-based energy sources are expected to become more scarce. As a result, biofuel usage is forecast to grow at 5.2% per year from 2010 until 2035 and solar power global installed capacity is expected to grow at 12% per year from 2010 to reach 674 GW by 2035 (source: World Energy Outlook). In addition, total investment of $1.8 trillion is expected in the electricity transmission sector worldwide between 2012 and 2035 (source: International Energy Association), approximately 61% of which is projected in regions where we focus our transmission activity. Additionally, generation from renewable sources is expected to increase significantly from 2012 to 2030, according to Bloomberg's Global Renewable Energy Market Outlook 2013.

        Other macroeconomic trends such as continuous global population growth and increasing water scarcity are expected to result in trends that favor the expertise and focus of our business. According to Global Water Intelligence estimates, the 2013 global water market is worth $556.8 billion and is expected to grow at a rate of around 3.9% per year through 2018. In particular, worldwide installed desalination capacity (industrial and municipal) in 2012 was 75 million m3/d, which corresponds to a water desalination market value of $3,938.3 million, and is expected to grow to $15,188.4 million by 2018. The growth rate for capital expenditure on seawater desalination is expected to be 19.2% during that time.

        In addition, increasing environmental consciousness, reducing carbon and greenhouse gas emissions, increasing focus on security of energy supply in many developed countries, and the related tightening of environmental regulation are important factors that we expect to bolster global demand and provide an impetus to our sustainable development focus.

Energy Sector

Solar

        Solar energy is one of the largest sources of renewable energy, the market for which has become increasingly prominent in recent years. The principal factors that have contributed to the development of this industry are the following: (i) political will and environmental awareness; (ii) the need of countries with limited fossil fuel resources to reduce non-renewable energy dependence; and (iii) the increased cost and price volatility of fossil fuels.

        Among the different types of renewable energy, solar energy has become a technologically proven option. Solar technologies are grouped in two large families: (i) Photovoltaics, or PV, which use sunlight to directly generate electricity; and (ii) thermal solar power, also known as CSP, which is where our expertise largely lies and which uses the direct irradiation of the sun to heat fluid to power steam turbines which generate electricity.

CSP Industry

        CSP plants have two principal components: (i) solar fields, where mirrors are placed to concentrate solar irradiation in order to heat a fluid to high temperatures; and (ii) a conventional steam turbine cycle, which uses the heat produced by the solar field to generate steam that is then used to generate electricity in a turbine generator, in a manner that is similar to a conventional turbine.

        Within the CSP market, there are currently two technologies in an advanced stage of maturity: parabolic trough technology and solar tower, or central receiver, technology. We have proprietary technology in both of these areas and have constructed and operate facilities for the operation of these technologies.

211


Table of Contents

        The key factors that we believe make CSP technology an attractive focus for investment by grid operators and utilities, including two key factors that differentiate CSP technology from other technologies, are: (i) dispatchability (the ability to dispatch energy when there is demand beyond storage capabilities), and (ii) the possibility of integration with conventional technologies to increase efficiency and reduce costs. We believe these factors will drive growth in the CSP market in the coming years as well as improve the competitiveness of CSP relative to other conventional and renewable technologies.

        As with all renewable energy sources in their initial development stages, government or industry subsidies are important in maintaining competitiveness with conventional energy sources while the technology develops and matures. These subsidies are typically determined up front for existing projects, and are subject to change. In addition, in the future, factors such as increased competition in the value chain, economies of scale in project development and new technologies are expected to reduce the costs of solar energy production, with the overall objective of achieving cost parity with other conventional energy sources.

CSP Market

        In recent years, the CSP industry has made significant progress and developed very rapidly. As of August 2013, this progress is continuing globally with more than 2,200 MW estimated to be under construction and several thousand additional MW estimated to be under development. In Spain alone, it is expected that in 2014 there will be approximately 2,400 MW in operation, and, under the price guaranteed feed-in tariff regime whereby price and offtake are guaranteed by the government, there is no requirement for a power purchase agreement as is the case in the United States.

        Currently, Spain has the largest installed capacity in the world. With more than 2,100 MW operating and with over 200 MW under construction it is the leading European market in terms of CSP projects under construction. The key reasons for Spain's leading position relate to its numerous environmental advantages for the development of solar power, including levels of solar irradiation that reach of up to 2,100 kW/m2 per year in southern parts of the country.

        The development of the United States market, which along with Spain is our second core market, has been slow in recent years but is now developing quickly. Currently, there is an estimated pipeline of more than 7,000 MW that is expected to be constructed in the coming years. Currently, the United States, with over 1,300 MW under construction, is the leading global market in terms of CSP projects under construction. In terms of solar resources, California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado and Texas are the most attractive states in the United States.

Transmission

        Growth and development in the electrical power transmission industry comes from several factors: (i) increasing global demand for electricity, (ii) inadequate and insufficient electrical grid capacity, (iii) construction of new power plants and demand-response facilities, and (iv) the particular demands of a growing segment of renewable power plants. Due to the unique requirements of locating renewable power plants in remote areas, new renewable power plants will need more transmission infrastructure to bring electrical power to where it is needed. In addition, electrical grid operators and utilities in several countries are studying proposals, such as the European Medgrid project, to link existing national grids into larger, international networks. In the United States, numerous entities at the federal, state, and local levels are investing in large power transmission line projects which are expected to account for an investment of $1,849 billion (nominal) dollars by 2035 (source: World Energy Outlook).

Cogeneration

        Cogeneration, the simultaneous production of electricity and heat using a single fuel source such as natural gas, harnesses heat that would otherwise be wasted in the generation of power.

212


Table of Contents

        The cogeneration process increases thermal efficiency and reduces emissions of carbon dioxide that are a normal part of the power generation process. Cogeneration may reduce global carbon dioxide emissions arising from new generation by 2015 by more than 4% (170 Mt / year), while by 2030 these reductions could increase to more than 10% (950 Mt / year), which is equivalent to one and a half times India's total annual emissions of carbon dioxide from power generation. Cogeneration can therefore make a meaningful contribution towards the achievement of emissions stabilization necessary to avoid major climate disruption.

        By reducing the need for transmission and distribution network investment, and the displacement of generation plants with higher costs, the increased use of cogeneration can reduce power sector investments by $795 billion over the next 20 years from 2012, or approximately 7% of total projected power sector investment for 2005 through 2030.

        A number of European cogeneration studies cite the potential of cogeneration and project a more than a doubling of cogeneration power capacity by 2025, which would represent an EU cogeneration electricity capacity share of more than 17%. The EU cogeneration potential analysis is ongoing and will improve in the future, as the European Union Cogeneration Directive is implemented. The Cogeneration Directive requires member states to undertake comprehensive national studies of the potential for cogeneration.

        The current share of total U.S. electrical capacity from cogeneration plants is approximately 8% and could rise to 12 - 21% by 2015 according to some estimates.

        Cogeneration currently accounts for around 9% of global power generation. Its economic potential, however, is likely to be greater.

Water Infrastructure

        As per Global Water Intelligence, the estimated combined size of the water and wastewater treatment plant market in 2013 is $55,625 million and is expected to grow to $71,578 million by 2018. The size of the industrial water market is estimated at $3,608.2 million for 2013 and projected to grow to $6,035.2 million by 2018.

        There are five fundamental drivers for this projected growth in the water sector.

    Growing water scarcity. Capital expenditures on water resource development (not including water transfer) are set to grow at an annual rate of 4.4% through 2018.

    The need for better sanitation in rapidly growing cities. Overall, capital expenditures on wastewater are growing by 5.0% per year.

    Pressure to deliver better performance. The market for systems related to smart water networks, including automation control and metered water networks, is expected to grow by 9.8% per year.

    Managing the effluents from the resources industries. The pursuit of more marginal energy and mineral resources is bringing with it a whole new set of water-related treatment challenges. The market for equipment for the oil, gas and mining industries is expected to grow by 13.0%.

    Growing corporate awareness of water risk. Businesses are expected to increase their investment in water and wastewater treatment technology equipment by 7.2% per year.

        Taking into account these drivers, the top country markets categorized by their estimated compound annual growth rate in capital expenditures from 2011 to 2018, are: India (17.6%), Malaysia (12.3%), Brazil (12.2%), Saudi Arabia (10.9%), Colombia (10.0%), Indonesia (9.9%), the Russian Federation (9.4%), China (9.0%), Mexico (9.0%) and the United States (4.0%). Among these countries, the current main markets are the United States, China, Brazil, India and Mexico.

        We are present in the main markets in which desalination is expected to grow most significantly in the coming years, including Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, North Africa and the United States, where our main

213

competitors are primarily large international companies. In 2010, our Qingdao (China) project was awarded the distinction of the "Desalination Deal of the Year" for 2009. Also, in April 2009, Global Water Intelligence awarded its Global Water Award to Befesa Agua as the best desalination company of the year for Befesa Agua's outstanding contribution to the desalination industry in 2008. We are ranked eighth in the world in desalination plant supply in terms of capacity installed since 2000 according to Global Water Intelligence.

Bioethanol

        The development of the industry for bioethanol has been supported by several long-term underlying factors: (i) the requirement of certain countries for energy independence; (ii) growing climate change awareness; (iii) volatile and higher oil and petroleum prices; (iv) continued increases in corn yields; and (v) continued government and legislative support.

        The bioethanol industry is somewhat cyclical and highly dependent on several factors, including the balance of supply and demand (and in particular, new capacity being added or shut down), raw materials prices (primarily corn, wheat and sugarcane) and oil prices. The industry has grown significantly since the beginning of 2009 on the back of new regulation aimed at increasing the share of renewable energy used in the transport sector.

        According to the Global Renewable Fuel Alliance, in 2012, world ethanol production was 21.89 Bgal, with a CAGR of 8.34% between 2006 and 2012.

        The United States is the largest ethanol producer in the world, with over 50% of the market. Until 2005, Brazil was the world's largest ethanol producer, and today it is still the number one exporter of ethanol.

        Although growth in Brazil's ethanol production has generally been very strong, the progression has not been uniform. After a two-year climb from 3.2 to 4.1 Bgal in 1997-98, production fell to a low of 2.8 Bgal three years later and has since recovered to 5.5 Bgal in 2012 according to the Renewable Fuel Association.

        Europe is a large ethanol production market, with over 1.2 Bgal of production in 2012. The Climate Change Package, or CCP, established by the EU, includes the "20/20/20" mandatory goals for 2020, one of which mandates a 20% share for renewable energy in the EU total energy mix. Part of this 20% share is a 10% minimum target for renewable energy consumed in transport to be achieved by all Member States. This directly supports our European ethanol business.

        Other government bodies have also enacted protocols to support the bioethanol market. For example, the United States has recently outlined its biofuels blending mandates (renewable fuel standard), which require 36 Bgal of biofuels to be blended into the fuel supply by 2022.

    Engineering and Construction

      Our Engineering and Construction activity includes two operating segments: Engineering and Construction and Technology and Other.

          Engineering and Construction

      We have over 70 years of experience in the Engineering and Construction activity in the energy and environmental sectors. We are responsible for all phases of the engineering and construction cycle, including project identification and development, basic and detailed engineering, construction and operation and maintenance.

      In the energy sector, we are dedicated primarily to renewable energy (solar, biofuel and biomass), as well as conventional (co-generation and combined-cycle) power plants and power transmission lines. In 2012, we were recognized by ENR Magazine as the leading international contractor in power transmission and distribution ("T&D") of electricity in terms of revenues, the leading international contractor in power in terms of revenues and the leading international contractor in co-generation and solar in terms of revenues (source: ENR).

      Within the environmental sector, we build water infrastructure, desalination and water treatment plants in Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia. We are among the market leaders in the construction of water desalination plants through our projects in Algeria, China, India, Ghana and Spain.

          Technology and Other

      The Technology and Other segment includes activities related to the sale of thermo-solar equipment and licensing of solar thermal related technology and water management technology, as well as innovative technology businesses such as hydrogen energy or the management of energy crops.

    Concession-Type Infrastructures

      By leveraging the expertise we have gained over the years in our Engineering and Construction activity and by selectively developing proprietary technologies, we have developed a portfolio of investments in concession-type infrastructures in the energy and environmental sectors where we seek to achieve attractive returns. Many such concessions are held pursuant to long-term agreements in which we operate and maintain assets that we initially constructed under BOOT schemes. There is limited or no demand risk as a result of arrangements such as feed-in and ad hoc tariff regimes, take-or-pay contracts and power or water purchase agreements, which are long-term contracts with utilities or other offtakers for the purchase and sale of the output of our concession assets. We believe our level of revenue visibility in this business to be very high given the nature of our assets, the long-term arrangements under which they are operated, and the number of projects under construction where off-take remuneration is already in place.

      Our Concession-Type Infrastructure activity includes four operating segments: Transmission, Solar, Water and Co-generation, which operate, respectively, our assets in power transmission, solar power generation (mostly in concentrated solar power technology ("CSP")), water desalination and co-generation. In each instance, we typically partner with leading international or local businesses or parastatals, such as E.ON AG ("E.ON"), Total S.A., Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company ("Masdar"), Centrais Eléctricas Brasileiras S.A. ("Eletrobrás"), General Electric Company ("General Electric"), Cemig, JGC Corporation, Itochu Corporation and Algérienne des Eaux (Algerian Water Authority). In a typical partnership, we make an equity contribution with our partners and then typically finance the infrastructure through non-recourse project financing.

      As of June 30, 2013, the average remaining duration of operation of our concession contract portfolio was 26 years. The capacity of our solar, co-generation and water desalination plants and the scale of our power transmission line networks are each expected to approximately double as projects currently under construction are expected to be completed between 2013 and 2014.

      We manage concession assets on five continents as diverse as power transmission lines in Brazil, Chile and Peru, thermo-solar plants in the United States, Spain, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates, desalination plants in India, China, the Middle East and North Africa and co-generation plants in Spain and Mexico. We pursue a flexible asset rotation strategy through which we may divest certain assets from time to time on an opportunistic basis to maximize our overall investment returns.

    Industrial Production

      Our Industrial Production activity includes one operating segment: Biofuels, in which we develop and produce biofuels. These operations are conducted using our own assets and are focused on high growth markets. According to industry publications and our own estimates, we enjoy a leadership position in many of the markets in which we operate.

          Biofuels

      In terms of capacity, according to Ethanol Producer Magazine and the European Renewable Ethanol Association, our Biofuels segment is currently the European market leader in ethanol production and is the seventh largest ethanol producer in North America. We are the only operator with a significant presence in all of the three key biofuel markets: the United States, Europe and Brazil. We are also diversified in terms of revenue sources and, historically, we have benefited from the positive impact of successful hedging policies.

      We believe we have identified a significant market opportunity in second-generation biofuels, which utilize biomass rather than cereal and other food crops as the primary raw material. We have invested continually in R&D&i over the past decade in this business and have developed our own proprietary processes and enzymes. Our pilot plant has been in operation in York (Nebraska, United States) since

218


Table of Contents

      2007 and a demonstration plant in Salamanca (Spain) since 2009. We commenced construction of our first second-generation commercial plant in Hugoton (Kansas, United States), for which we have been awarded a total of $132 million in loan guarantee financing and $97 million in grants from the U.S. Department of Energy since 2007. This plant is expected to start operations in the first quarter of 2014 and increase the number of opportunities for us to license our biomass technology to third parties. In addition, we believe that the plant will position our business for potential entry into the biomaterials and bioproducts industry. N-Butanol production on a commercial scale would allow us to diversify our bioenergy business product range, reducing market volatility. A pilot plan for development and implementation of a catalytic technology for N-Butanol production is expected to be running by the end of 2013.

History and Development of our Group

        Abengoa was formed under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain in Seville on January 4, 1941 as a limited liability company and was subsequently changed to a limited corporation (sociedad anónima) on March 20, 1952. We were originally founded as Sociedad Abengoa S.L. in Seville by Javier Benjumea Puigcerver and José Manuel Abaurre Fernández-Pasalgua and with three friends and other family members. Our initial vision was to manufacture a mono-phase meter for measurement of electric currents. However, we changed course due to supply problems and, soon after, we began offering engineering consultancy services, carrying out technical studies and completing construction works within the energy sector. Our registered office is at C/ Energía Solar, no. 2, Seville (Spain). Our headquarters are located at Campus Palmas Altas, C/ Energía Solar, 1, 41014, Seville, Spain. The telephone number for our headquarters is +34 954 93 71 11.

        Abengoa expanded throughout Spain in the 1950s and started its international expansion in the 1960s, first to Latin America, then to the United States and Canada, rest of Europe, Africa, Asia and other parts of the world. Today, Abengoa operates in more than 70 countries with offices and projects in more than 35 of them, with Spain accounting for less than 26% of total revenues during 2012. Abengoa is the parent company of the Group, which as of June 30, 2013 was made up of 584 companies, being the parent company itself, 532 subsidiaries, 17 associates and 34 joint ventures. Additionally, the Group has a number of shareholdings of less than 20% in various further entities.

        We currently conduct our traditional engineering and industrial construction business through our subsidiary Abeinsa.

        We entered the environmental services business in the 1980s with our participation in water infrastructure projects in Spain. With the acquisition of Befesa in 2000, a company specializing in industrial waste management, we reorganized our environmental activities under Befesa. In 2006, Befesa acquired BUS Group AB, the founder of the original Befesa and the largest European recycler of steel dust, which acquisition made Befesa a European leader in industrial waste recycling. On June 13, 2013, we entered into a share purchase agreement for the sale of Befesa to funds advised by Triton Partners. On July 15, 2013, we received €331 of cash proceeds corresponding to the price agreed for the shares and the sale transaction was closed.

        We entered the bioenergy business in the 1990s. In late 1990s, we identified the need for a renewable energy alternative for the transport sector. We had a clear vision to achieve a critical mass in first generation bioethanol (or "cereal" bioethanol) and to make second generation bioethanol (or "biomass" bioethanol) commercially available through investments in R&D&i. We built our first two plants in Spain and in 2001 we acquired High Plains Corporation in the United States, a bioethanol producer with three plants. This new business line was organized as Abengoa Bioenergía. In 2007, we acquired Dedini Agro and entered the Brazilian bioenergy market.

        Until September 5, 2011, we conducted our information technology business through Telvent. We first entered this business when we acquired Sainco, a traffic automation company, in the late 1960s. As Sainco grew and broadened its spectrum of solutions and geographical reach, Abengoa decided to take the

219


Table of Contents

company public to finance its growth. As part of the reorganization undertaken prior to going public in 2004, the brand name of Telvent was adopted. In 2008, we acquired DTN Holding Company Inc., a leader in delivering real time business information to key decision makers in the agriculture, energy and environmental industries. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and during part of the year 2011, we held a 40% shareholding in Telvent. On June 1, 2011, we announced the sale of our investment in Telvent to Schneider Electric S.A. and on September 5, 2011 the transaction was completed. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations — Acquisitions and Divestments — Divestment of Telvent GIT, S.A." for further discussion.

        Abengoa began its solar power activity in 1984 when the company was one of the participants in the construction of the Solar Platform in Almería, Spain. Since then, multiple R&D&i projects have been carried out to develop different types of receivers for tower plants and parabolic trough technology, which were partially supported by the European Union Framework Programmes. These first steps were taken in Abengoa's Engineering and Construction and Industrial Production business units. In 2007, with the inauguration of the first tower technology commercial plant, PS10 (11 MW), as well as the world's largest low-concentration photovoltaic plant, Sevilla PV, with 1.2 MW of power output capacity, Abengoa Solar was incorporated as a business unit.

        Abengoa was formerly present in the wind sector through its ownership of Desarrollos Eolicos S.A., a fully owned subsidiary that was sold in 2001 to the Dutch company Nuon.

        On July 27, 2010, Abengoa Cõncessoes Brasil Holding, S.A., a subsidiary in the Concession-Type Infrastructures segment, concluded an agreement with the company State Grid International to sell its 25% shareholding in the companies ETEE (Expansión Transmisora de Energía Eléctrica, S.A.) and ETIM (Expansión Transmissora Itumbiara Marimbondo), which are responsible for the concession of the 794 kilometers of transmission lines that joins the power stations of the city of Itumbiara, in Soiás, Brazil, and Marimbondo, in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil.

        On June 2, 2011, Abengoa Concessões entered into an agreement with TAESA to sell 50% of its shareholding in a newly formed entity, named UNISA, to which Abengoa Concessões contributed 100% of its interests in four project companies that it controlled and that hold power transmission line concessions in Brazil. These four project companies are STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III. In addition, on June 2, 2011, Abengoa Concessões and Abengoa Construção Brasil Ltda. entered into an agreement with TAESA to sell 100% of the share capital of NTE, another project company that holds a power transmission line concession in Brazil. We subsequently signed an agreement with TAESA on March 16, 2012 to sell our remaining 50% interest in UNISA, thereby completing the divestment of certain Brazilian transmission line concession assets (STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III). See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations — Acquisitions and Divestments — Sale of Brazilian Transmission Line Assets" and "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information" for further discussion.

        In October 2011, we issued 17,142,858 Class B shares and warrants to purchase an additional 4,020,124 Class B shares to First Reserve as part of their €300 million investment in Abengoa. As a result of the First Reserve investment, First Reserve acquired approximately 0.2% of the voting rights of our share capital. For further information on First Reserve, see "Principal Shareholders — Major Shareholders."

Industry and Market Opportunity

        Over the last decade, global investment in the renewable energy and environmental sectors has witnessed significant growth. Moreover, energy scarcity, the focus on reduction of carbon emissions, and the potential increased costs of building and operating nuclear plants are expected to continue to drive renewable technology. We expect this to continue both in the short- and long-term and expect that this will support demand for our products and services. Overall energy demand is expected to increase by 1.2% per

220


Table of Contents

year from 2010 through 2035, while fossil-based energy sources are expected to become more scarce. As a result, biofuel usage is forecast to grow at 5.2% per year from 2010 until 2035 and solar power global installed capacity is expected to grow at 12% per year from 2010 to reach 674 GW by 2035 (source: World Energy Outlook). In addition, total investment of $1.8 trillion is expected in the electricity transmission sector worldwide between 2012 and 2035 (source: International Energy Association), approximately 61% of which is projected in regions where we focus our transmission activity.

        Other macroeconomic trends such as continuous global population growth and increasing water scarcity are expected to result in trends that favor the expertise and focus of our business. According to Global Water Intelligence estimates, the 2013 global water market is worth $556.8 billion and is expected to grow at a rate of around 3.9% per year through 2018. In particular, worldwide installed desalination capacity (industrial and municipal) in 2012 was 75 million m3/d, which corresponds to a water desalination market value of $3,938.3 million, and is expected to grow to $15,188.4 million by 2018. The growth rate for capital expenditure on seawater desalination is expected to be 19.2% during that time.

        In addition, increasing environmental consciousness, reducing carbon and greenhouse gas emissions, increasing focus on security of energy supply in many developed countries, and the related tightening of environmental regulation are important factors that we expect to bolster global demand and provide an impetus to our sustainable development focus.

Our Strengths

Integrated business model with high equity returns

        We operate an integrated business model in which we provide complete services from initial design, construction and engineering to operation and maintenance of infrastructure assets. The combination of our engineering and construction expertise with our track record of operating large and complex infrastructure facilities allows us to benefit from and leverage multiple operating efficiencies within our Group. We believe that our integrated business model allows us to prepare competitive bids for government concession tenders and complete and operate the project on a profitable and timely basis while achieving high equity returns.

        Furthermore, our business mix enables us to share knowledge gained from across our Group and implement best practices across our businesses and geographies, thereby increasing our competitiveness while allowing us to be less dependent on any single business or geography. Our Engineering and Construction activity provides a resilient earnings base and our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity provides long term recurrent cash flows. Together with our Industrial Production activity, our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity also operates in high-growth sectors that offer a wide range of business opportunities. In addition, our business mix allows us to apply our engineering capabilities to create new technologies that are integral to our asset-owned operations and concession projects. The growth of our technological development capabilities enhances our engineering capabilities and increases the development of our asset-based operations.

High revenue visibility driven by strong order backlog and contracted revenue stream

        We have a developed portfolio of businesses focused on EPC and concession project opportunities, many of which are based on customer contracts or long-term concession projects. As of June 30, 2013, our backlog of projects and other operations pending execution stood at €7,133 million, which equalled approximately 23 months of revenue that our Engineering and Construction activity achieved in the previous 12 months. As of June 30, 2013, our concessions had an average remaining life of 26 years. The volume and timing of executing the work in our backlog is important to us in anticipating our operational and financing needs, and we believe our backlog figures reflect our ability to generate revenue in the near term.

        We have an established portfolio of long-term concession projects undertaken in conjunction with partners or on an exclusive basis, which we operate in the power transmission, energy, generation and water

221


Table of Contents

infrastructure and energy sectors, typically with terms of 20 to 30 years. Our revenue from concession projects is typically obtained during the term through a period tariff or price per unit payable in exchange for the operation and maintenance of the project. This revenue, which is normally adjusted for inflation, represents a stable and contracted source of cash flow generation for us. In addition, partnerships and non-recourse project finance limits our credit exposure and increases our ability to commit to multiple projects simultaneously. For large projects, we often share the equity contribution by teaming up with various international and local partners. Project finance borrowing allows us to finance the rest of the project through non-recourse debt and thereby insulate the rest of our Group from such credit exposure.

        In addition, we have a capital expenditure program focused on the construction of power transmission lines, solar power plants, cogeneration power plants and water infrastructure among other activities. As of June 30, 2013, our total estimated future capital expenditures were €2,325 million, with the significant majority of projects backed by off-take contracts and feed-in tariffs, for most of which long-term financing has been obtained. As a result, we believe that our capital expenditure program provides us with enhanced visibility on short and medium-term growth in revenue and cash flow.

Strong asset portfolio geographically diversified

        Our activities possess a combination of engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") as well as concession revenue streams originating from a variety of both renewable and conventional technologies and markets with their own demand and supply dynamics. As a result, we are not overly reliant on any particular technology, market or customer. Furthermore, as we have operations on five continents, with 82% and 85% of our consolidated revenue generated outside of Spain for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively, our geographic diversification reduces our exposure to economic conditions in any single country or region. Due to our business and geographic diversification, we have a broad customer base consisting of both private and public sector customers, including leading global utilities, blue chip industrial companies and national, regional and local governmental authorities. In 2012, no single customer accounted for over approximately 5% of our consolidated revenue, excluding work performed for our own assets.

        Our broad geographic diversification with significant activities in the United States, Latin America (including Brazil) and Europe, in particular, gives us deep regional insight and long-standing experience working with local governments, regulators, financial institutions and other partners that we believe assists us to obtain requisite equity and debt financing and conclude successful partnerships with leading international and local firms.

Market leader in high growth energy and environmental markets

        We have a developed portfolio of businesses focused on EPC and concession project opportunities in the attractive and growing energy and environmental markets, which despite short-term challenges are expected to continue growing.

        We have developed a leadership position in the energy sector in recent years, as highlighted by the following:

    we are the leading international contractor in power transmission and distribution of electricity in terms of revenues, the leading international contractor in power in terms of revenues, and the leading international contractor in co-generation and solar in terms of revenues (source: ENR).

    we are a global leader in solar CSP technology, having developed and built the first two commercial tower technology plants (PS10 and PS20) in Seville (Spain), the first integrated solar combined cycle ("ISCC") plant in the world in Ain-Beni-Mathar (Morocco) and the second ISCC plant in Hassi-R'Mel (Algeria) and continuing to work on two of the world's largest CSP plants under construction in Arizona (the Solana project) and California (the Mojave project); and together with Brightsource

222


Table of Contents

      Energy, Inc. ("Brightsource"), we are jointly developing a project to build and operate the world's two largest solar power towers in Riverside, California.

    we are a global leader in the biofuels industry, with plants in Europe, the United States and Brazil. We ranked first in Europe and seventh in the United States in first-generation bioethanol in terms of installed capacity (source: Ethanol Producer Magazine and ePURE) and enjoy a global leadership position in the development of technology for the production of second-generation bioethanol on a commercial scale.

        We are also dedicating significant efforts to developing our market position in the environmental sector, specifically within the water desalination industry, where we are ranked the 6th largest company in the world in terms of capacity according to Global Water Intelligence. Furthermore, in 2012, we were awarded the distinction of "2012 Desalination Company of the Year" for our outstanding contribution in the desalination sector and recognized as one of the top four water companies of the year. Additionally, we were awarded the distinction of "2010 Desalination Deal of the year" for our water desalination project in Qingdao (China) and recognized as the "2009 Desalination Company of the Year" (Source: Global Water Intelligence ("GWI")).

Competitive advantage driven by our cutting edge technology and our extensive Engineering and Construction experience

        Our cutting edge technology is one of our central competitive advantages. Building on our extensive experience in our Engineering and Construction activity of providing turnkey engineering solutions as well as on our resilient earnings base and sustained record of profitability, over the last decade we have focused on using our engineering expertise and know-how to develop cutting edge technologies relating to sustainable development, particularly in technologies for markets with relatively high barriers to entry. Following this approach, we have made significant investments in new technologies at the vanguard of renewable energies such as ISCC plants and second-generation biofuels, which we believe may provide us with an early advantage as their commercial application becomes more widespread.

Strong financial discipline and liquidity profile supported by access to a diverse range of funding sources

        We have successfully grown our business while seeking to enforce strict financial discipline to maintain our strong liquidity position. As of June 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term financial investments of €3,222 million, which we believe are sufficient to satisfy our short-term liquidity needs. This strong cash position also assists in bidding for large projects. The financing of our projects is executed at two levels: (i) non-recourse debt, which is used at the project company level to fund, as the case may be, the engineering and construction works, operation of the concession-type infrastructures and industrial production projects, and which insulates the rest of the Group from any credit risk; and (ii) corporate debt, which is used to fund the rest of our operations.

        In addition, we have developed a strong network of relationships with international financial institutions and local banks, which have provided us with corporate and non-recourse financing. We have also obtained financial support from international and local development banks and government regulators such as the European Investment Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, the U.S. Department of Energy, Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social ("BNDES") in Brazil and Banco Nacional de Obras y Servicios Públicos ("Banobras") in Mexico. In addition, we have accessed the debt capital markets in different geographies and successfully raised funding through the issuance of bonds and convertible notes.

Entrepreneurial and experienced management team with proven track record and a clearly defined strategy

        Our senior management team holds a significant stake in our equity, has an average of 18 years of experience at our company and has led Abengoa through our significant growth and development, including

223


Table of Contents

periods of international expansion across all of our activities and the creation and development of our Solar, Water and Industrial Production businesses over the last decade. This proven growth track record has been possible thanks to our management team's focus on shareholder value and financial discipline across the Group.

        Going forward, our senior management team has a defined and clear strategy and a strong commitment to continue delivering on its proven execution track record in the Engineering and Construction business; building a diversified asset portfolio both in terms of geography and sector in our Concession Type Infrastructures, which will become a sizeable source of cash while committing to invest a maximum equivalent to the E&C margin in a concession; and diversifying into new geographies and outputs our Industrial Production activity.

Our Growth Strategy

        Our objective is to create long-term value for our shareholders by becoming the leading global engineering and clean technology company providing innovative solutions for sustainability in the energy and environmental sectors. Key elements of our strategy for achieving this objective are as follows:

Maintain focus on operational excellence and technological development

        Given the importance of our technological leadership to our competitive advantage, we maintain this strength through significant investment in R&D&i which is undertaken by over approximately 800 employees. We intend to maintain this effort to retain or enhance our market positions and cost competitiveness.

Maintain the mix of our business operations to operate a diversified business model

        We have been careful to expand our business in a balanced manner, seeking to ensure that we are not over-reliant on any particular product or service, geography or technology.

Take advantage of opportunities for organic cash flow generation in our growth markets

        We look to establish ourselves early in growth markets so that we can garner leadership positions in our businesses. We have significant experience in expanding into new and diverse markets with different regulatory regimes that allows us to adapt and to become familiar with new markets and technologies more quickly and helps us capitalize on future expansion opportunities in new markets.

        Our business is positioned for growth through the development of both existing operations and new investments. We have strict "return on investment" criteria that attempt to ensure that our growth plans generate long-term, sustainable cash flows for our business. In addition, we maintain strict discipline towards the deployment of new non-committed capital expenditures, committing to such investments only when long-term funding has been secured.

Maintain our competitive position

        We believe that we enjoy competitive advantages in many of our businesses due to factors such as our technological leadership position, know-how and scale, as well as the relatively high barriers to entry in certain key areas. We believe these are important factors in protecting our cash flows and profitability. We intend to continue to focus on efficiency measures and technology investments to seek to maintain our competitive advantages.

Asset rotation

        It is part of our strategy to unlock value through asset rotations, when we think that conditions are appropriate, in order to increase equity returns. We have a successful track record of monetizing certain of our investments, for example:

    in the fourth quarter of 2010, we completed the sale of our 25% interest in two power transmission lines in Brazil that resulted in €102 million of cash proceeds;

    in the third quarter of 2011, we completed the Telvent Disposal, which generated cash proceeds of €391 million;

    in the fourth quarter of 2011, we executed the First Cemig Sale which resulted in the equivalent of €479 million of net cash proceeds in Brazilian reais;

    in the second quarter of 2012, we closed the Second Cemig Sale which resulted in the equivalent of €354 million of net cash proceeds in Brazilian reais;

    in the second quarter of 2013, we closed the sale of our Brazilian subsidiary, Bargoa, for a total sales price of $80 million, which resulted in approximately $50 million of cash proceeds; and

    in the second quarter of 2013, we entered into a share purchase agreement for the sale of 100% of our shares in our subsidiary, Befesa, which specializes in the integral management of industrial waste, to funds advised by Triton Partners. On July 15, 2013, we received €331 in cash proceeds corresponding to the agreed price for the shares (and deferred compensation and other compensation totaling €289 million) and the sale transaction was closed.

        We intend to continue to actively follow an asset rotation strategy whereby we periodically sell assets or businesses in order to seek to optimize investment returns and free up capital for new investments or debt reduction. We intend to follow an opportunistic approach, whereby we consider to sell assets or businesses when we deem market conditions are attractive to us. Sales of assets or businesses may be material and may happen at any time. We expect to continue with our asset rotation strategy through the rest of 2013 and 2014. We have identified a pipeline of assets to be rotated in the next 18 months, which could result in up to approximately €1.5 billion of cash proceeds and an additional approximately €1.5 billion of net debt reduction at the consolidated level as a result of the deconsolidation of the assets rotated. These opportunities relate to our power transmission business in Latin America, our renewable and conventional power assets and other assets. Our asset rotation plans constitute forward-looking information and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results forecasted, including, but not limited to, our performance, industry performance, the availability of buyers for our assets at the prices we seek, general business and economic conditions, competition, adverse changes in applicable laws, regulations or rules, and the various risks set forth in this prospectus. See "Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements".

Strengthen and diversify our capital structure and gain financial flexibility

        We are committed to maintaining a sound capital structure and a strong liquidity position. As such, we intend to extend the debt maturities of our existing corporate debt, prefund our cash needs and avoid committing to new projects unless we have first secured long-term financing. We aim to continue to access the global capital markets from time to time, as appropriate and subject to market conditions, in order to further diversify our funding sources.

        Through the execution of the Telvent Disposal, the Cemig Sales and the investment by First Reserve Corporation ("First Reserve"), we reduced our Net Debt by €1,667 million in the year 2011 and €473 million in the year 2012.

225


Table of Contents

        At the project company level, we are also working on diversifying our funding sources by continuing to partner with leading energy companies such as General Electric, Eletrobrás, Cemig and E.ON, to co-fund our new investments.

Certain Financial Targets

        Financial targets prepared by our management ("Targets") are derived from our strategic planning process and were updated as part of our preparation for this offering. The Targets we present below were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or with a view toward complying with the published guidelines of the SEC regarding financial projections or IFRS or the guidelines established by the Instituto de Auditores — Censores Jurados de Cuentas de España with respect to prospective financial information, but, in the view of our management, were prepared on a reasonable basis, reflected the best estimates and judgements available to our management at the time, and presented, to the best of our management's knowledge and belief, the expected course of action and the expected future financial performance of our company as of the date they were prepared. However, the Targets are not facts and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results.

        Our management and our Board will periodically review and revise our strategic plan in light of business, financial, regulatory and other conditions at the time it is reviewed and revised, which may involve changes to the Targets set forth below. We do not intend to continue to publicly disclose these Targets or any adjustments thereto resulting from such review and revision or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

        None of our independent auditors, nor any other independent accountants, compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to the Targets, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on the Target or their achievability, and such parties assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the Targets. The ultimate achievability of the Targets is also subject to numerous risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described in this prospectus.

        The Targets, while presented with numerical specificity, necessarily reflect numerous estimates and assumptions made by us with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, regulatory, market and financial conditions and other future events, as well as matters specific to our businesses, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict and many of which are beyond our control. The Targets reflect subjective judgement in many respects and thus are susceptible to multiple interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business, economic, regulatory, financial and other developments. As such, the Targets constitute forward-looking information and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results forecasted, including, but not limited to, our performance, industry performance, general business and economic conditions, customer requirements, competition, adverse changes in applicable laws, regulations or rules, and the various risks set forth in this prospectus. See "Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Language". The Targets are in respect of certain years during the 2013-2018 period. The Targets are not in respect any interim period of any such year or any period after 2018. Actual results may vary significantly from the Targets during any interim period of any year due to seasonality in our business or otherwise. The Targets are dependent upon our ability to reduce our Corporate Capex (as defined below), while maintaining our levels of EBITDA generation. They are also dependent upon our ability to maintain our working capital levels, which in turn is dependent upon our ability to generate EBITDA and manage working capital levels through other means, including our outsourcing of payments to suppliers, use of non-recourse factoring for many of our receivables and use of advances from customers, among others. None of us, the Board, the underwriters or our or their respective affiliates, advisors, officers, directors or representatives can give any assurance that the Targets will be realized or that actual results will not vary significantly from the Targets. The Targets cover multiple years and therefore by their nature become less reliable with each successive year.

226


Table of Contents

        In addition, the Targets reflect assumptions of our management as of the time that they were prepared as to certain business decisions that were and are subject to change. The Targets also may be affected by our ability to achieve strategic goals, objectives and targets over the applicable periods. The Targets cannot, therefore, be considered a guarantee of future operating or financial results, and the information should not be relied on as such. The inclusion of the Targets should not be regarded as an indication that we, the Board or any our advisors or representatives or anyone who received this information then considered, or now considers, them a reliable prediction of future events, and should not be relied upon as such.

Biofuels

        In the biofuels sector, we have constructed several plants for our Industrial Production activity on a turnkey construction basis. These include an ethanol plant in Rotterdam (The Netherlands), with capacity to produce up to 480 million liters of ethanol from corn or wheat, and two ethanol plants in Indiana and Illinois (both in the United States), each with a capacity of 340 million liters. These three plants came into operation in 2010.

        We are currently constructing one of the first and few commercial-scale second generation bioethanol production plants in Kansas, United States, which is due to start operation between the end of 2013 and the beginning of 2014. This plant, with a 95 million liter capacity, will be able to convert cellulosic biomass, mainly agricultural waste products, into ethanol.

Power Plants

        We have significant expertise in the design and construction of conventional power plants. In December 2010, our Engineering and Construction activity announced plans to develop a 300 MW co-generation plant in Tabasco (Mexico), in partnership with General Electric Energy Financial Services. The plant, currently under construction, will supply the Nuevo Pemex gas processing complex with power and steam. In April 2012, we were selected by Elektrociepłownia Stalowa Wola S.A., Poland's partially state-owned energy and gas distribution company, to undertake the engineering and construction of a 450 MW combined cycle plant in Poland, the largest such power plant to be in Poland. In December 2011, we were awarded a contract to construct a 640 MW combined-cycled electricity power plant for Mexico's Federal Electricity Commission, which is part of the Morelos Integral Project, an initiative to develop central Mexico's infrastructure. Our Engineering and Construction segment's other power plant projects include providing repowering work on a 270 MW plant in El Sauz (Mexico), in 2003, where we converted the plant from a single cycle thermal plant to a combined cycle plant. In June 2013 we were selected by U.S. power company, Portland General Electric (PGE) to develop a 440-megawatt (MW) combined cycle power plant to supply electrical energy to half the population of Portland, Oregon (USA). We will be responsible for the engineering, design and construction of the combined cycle power plant under the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) "turnkey" system. The estimated time for the project is 36 months. We have also built five co-generation plants with over 250 MW in Spain and two co-generation plants, which use biomass as fuel, in Brazil with 70 MW of capacity each adjacent to our bioenergy plants.

Water Infrastructure

        We have extensive experience bidding on and executing EPC projects in the water infrastructure sector globally. Our Engineering and Construction activity specializes in the design and construction of large desalination plants, particularly those using reverse osmosis technologies. Reverse osmosis is a common method of desalination consisting of the separation of the various components of a liquid solution through the forces applied to a semi-permeable membrane. In addition to reverse osmosis desalination plants, our Engineering and Construction activity designs and constructs waste water treatment stations and plants and designs, constructs and overhauls hydroelectric plants, irrigation lines and piping lines (including repairing, improving, reconstructing aqueducts, tunnels, drains, service roads and bridges, and installing monitoring and automation equipment). Since 2000, our Engineering and Construction activity has constructed seven desalination plants with capacity totaling 660,000 m3/day and it is currently constructing two additional plants with capacity totaling 260,000 m3/day. In October 2011, we were awarded a contract by Conagua, the Mexican water commission to perform construction, equipping and maintenance works for a 139 km aqueduct project to supply potable water to 1.5 million people. In July 2012, we were chosen by ACWA Power International to develop a desalination plant using reverse osmosis technology in Barka, Oman. The project will have the capacity to supply more than 225,000 people with a capacity to desalinate 45,000 m3/day. We will be responsible for the design, engineering and construction of the plant as well as its subsequent operation and maintenance support. We are currently bidding on multiple new EPC projects and

        Our Engineering and Construction activity provides engineering and integration services on an EPC basis for telecommunications networks. Its main telecommunications customer is Telefónica de España,  S.A.U., for which it provides construction and maintenance services. We also provide products and services for the deployment and installation of telecommunication networks.

Maintenance and Service

        Our Engineering and Construction activity provides operation and maintenance services for conventional and renewable energy power plants. The operation and maintenance services for power plants include preventive, scheduled and corrective maintenance of equipment and systems and the operation thereof to ensure that the facility operates reliably and meets its technical specifications with a view to minimizing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions while maximizing production. In 2009, the Engineering and Construction activity conducted operation and maintenance activities at the Ain Beni Mathar ISCC plant in Ain-Beni-Mathar (Morocco), of 470 MWe. Our Engineering and Construction activity also provides various operation and maintenance services in chemical and gas production plants and nuclear and thermal power plants. Such work includes services provided for maintenance and instrumentation, operation and loading, and modifications for both the Almaraz and Trillo nuclear power plants in Spain.

Industry and Competition

        The prevailing economic and financial climate is having a mixed impact on the industrial engineering and construction industry in developed markets. Investment and current projects under negotiation or in progress have slowed significantly, competition is robust, customers are facing significant difficulties in acquiring funding and their insolvency risk is high. However, there have been indications of increased public spending in infrastructure in the mid-term and growth in renewable energies. Other developments in this industry include increased international demand in both established and emerging markets for sustainable and renewable energy infrastructure. In addition, the strong growth in emerging markets in the last few years resulted in significant investment in energy infrastructure to meet increased demands resulting from the rapid industrialization of these economies. This investment is also to an extent, strategically driven, as local governments seek to stimulate their economies through infrastructure spending.

231


Table of Contents

        Our Engineering and Construction activity also performs significant work for our Concession-Type Infrastructures and Industrial Production activities. As a result, this activity is impacted by factors relevant to the industries in which those two activities operate.

        According to the World Economy Outlook update by the International Monetary Fund, a number of events during the first half of 2011, including the earthquake and tsunami in Japan and the conflict in certain countries in the Middle East and North Africa, have interrupted the beginning of an economic recovery which was observed during 2010. Nevertheless, the World Economy Outlook considers this temporary and the return to economic recovery is expected to be delayed rather than derailed altogether. Projections indicate a modest increase of activity in advanced economies and robust growth in developing and emerging economies with global growth expected to be about 4% with real GDP growth in major advanced economies. These underlying trends should have a positive impact across our segments.

        Our Engineering and Construction activity faces a different set of competitors depending on the type of project. Some of our key competitors in certain markets are: Técnicas Reunidas, Mitsubishi and Korean Electric Power Corporation ("KEPCO") in conventional energy; Actividades de Construcción y Servicios, S.A. ("ACS") and Acciona, S.A. ("Acciona") in solar power; Colombian grid operator ("ISA"), Eletrobrás and Cemig in power transmission in Latin America; and Elecnor, S.A., ACS, Acciona and Duro Felguera, S.A. in Spain. In the water area, our principal competitors in Spain are Obrascón Huarte Lain, S.A., Acciona, S.A. and Sacyr Vallehermoso, S.A. and internationally include Asociación de Empresas Constructoras de Ámbito Nacional ("SEOPAN"), Veolia Environnement S.A., Hyflux Ltd., Doosan Ltd., Suez Environnement S.A., GE Water and Process Technologies, Ltd., Fisia Italimpianti S.p.A and Aquatech, Ltd.

Approximately 30% of the Engineering and Construction activity's customers are based in Spain, while 70% are international.

        In the water area of our Engineering and Construction activity, a limited number of EPC customers, many of which are government entities, currently account for a substantial portion of our revenue.

        Revenue from the solar area of our Engineering and Construction activity comes from selling equipment and technology and industrial heating installations. We sell solar plant equipment and technology to solar developers. In the industrial heat market, our clients are industrial players who engage us for the construction and operation of installations and for maintenance or heating services.

        Our Engineering and Construction activity has different types of contracts depending on the nature of the work to be performed. For EPC projects, contracts are fixed price or cost-plus contracts, usually running for a short period of time of up to 36 months and end after completion and startup. For water projects, we perform turnkey EPC projects for the design and construction of infrastructures and plants, which we usually undertake at non-revisable fixed prices.

Suppliers

        The principal products used by the Engineering and Construction activity include structural steel, metal plate, concrete, cable and various electrical and mechanical components such as turbines and boilers. These products and components are subject to raw material (aluminum, copper, nickel, iron ore, etc.) availability

232


Table of Contents

and commodity price fluctuations, which the Engineering and Construction activity monitors on a regular basis. Our Engineering and Construction activity has access to numerous global supply sources and we do not foresee any supply constraints that might have a material adverse effect on our business in the near term. However, the availability of these products, components and raw materials may vary significantly from year to year due to factors including customer demand, producer capacity, market conditions and specific material shortages.

        Although water infrastructure plants utilize essential equipment, such as pumps or membranes, we procure such equipment in mature markets where we generally use a large number of suppliers and are not dependent on any single supplier.

        We own interests in companies that produce and supply key components for the construction of CSP plants, such as Rioglass Solar, S.A. ("Rioglass Solar"), Construcciones Métalicas Mexicanas Comemsa, S.A. de C.V. ("Comemsa") and Europea de Construcciones Métalicas, S.A. ("Eucomsa"). Rioglass Solar specializes in the manufacture of parabolic-shaped mirrors, which are one of the key components for parabolic trough plants. Both Eucomsa and Comemsa focus on the manufacture of galvanized reticulated metal structures, such as steel towers for power transmission and structures for parabolic troughs and heliostats. Both Eucomsa and Comemsa undertake R&D&i activities in order to develop robust and reliable structures at lower costs. The Engineering and Construction activity also owns an interest in Sol3g, S.L., a company that designs and sells high-concentration PV modules.

Concession-Type Infrastructures

Overview

        Our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity oversees the construction, operation and maintenance of power transmission infrastructure, conventional (co-generation) and renewable energy (solar) plants, and water generation, transportation and management facilities (including desalination, treatment and water purification plants and water pipelines). Within this activity we have grouped four segments: Transmission, Solar, Water and Co-generation. We engage our Engineering and Construction activity for a significant portion of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity's projects. We undertake these activities through our own asset-owned operations and through concession-based arrangements. These arrangements are governed by long-term sales arrangements such as take-or-pay contracts, feed-in tariff arrangements and power or water purchase agreements, with limited demand risk. In our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity, we participate in public tenders for the construction and operation of certain infrastructure assets.

        Our work in concessions generally has four functions: building, operating, owning and transferring of infrastructure. Typically, the concessionaire agrees to construct an infrastructure project for the owner (usually a public administration in the case of public infrastructure projects), procures the necessary financing and operates it for a fixed or variable period of time and at the end of which the concession returns to the owner. During the term of the concession, the concessionaire has ownership of the infrastructure.

        Our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity had revenue of €236.4 million and Consolidated EBITDA of €140.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and revenue of €393.1 million and Consolidated EBITDA of €233.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition, our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity had total net fixed assets of €7,001.6 million and 6,558.5 million as of June 30, 2013 and as of December 31, 2012, respectively.

Transmission

        The Transmission segment had revenue of €32.7 million and Consolidated EBITDA of €21.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and revenue of €37.6 million and Consolidated EBITDA of €15.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition, our Transmission segment had total net fixed assets of €2,530.0 million and €2,384.1 as of June 30, 2013 and as of December 31, 2012 respectively.

        Within our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity, the Transmission segment operates power transmission lines for a certain period of time after construction is completed. The power transmission lines are constructed by our Engineering and Construction activity. During the period of operation, our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity generates revenue by charging the electrical grid an annual fee for operating the power transmission lines. The prices of the service, fixed at the award of the project and regulated in the concession contract, are invoiced monthly to the companies that use the infrastructure. The amount the Engineering and Construction activity is able to charge is usually set in the concession contract. As of June 30, 2013, the Concession-Type Infrastructures activity had approximately 1,631 km of high-voltage power transmission lines in operation and a further 5,217 km of high voltage power transmission lines under construction that will come under the Concession-Type Infrastructures activity's operation upon their completion. In Brazil, Peru and Chile, the Concession-Type Infrastructures activity has 21 projects totaling 12,033 km of power transmission concessions, which excludes four transmission lines that we fully divested to Cemig pursuant to the Second Cemig Sale that closed on June 30, 2012.

("STE"), ATE Transmissora de Energia S.A. ("ATE"), ATE II Transmissora de Energia S.A. ("ATE II") and ATE III Transmissora de Energia S.A. ("ATE III"); (ii) also on June 2, 2011 we sold 100% of the share capital of NTE Nordeste Transmissora de Energia S.A. and; (iii) on March 16, 2012, we signed an additional share purchase agreement to sell our remaining 50% interest in project companies STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III (on June 30, 2012, all closing conditions were fulfilled). See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Results of Operations — Acquisitions and Divestments — Sale of Brazilian Transmission Line Assets" for further discussion.

        In June 2012, we were awarded the construction, operation and maintenance of an 80 km power transmission line by Sierra Gorda Sociedad Contractual Minera, known as the "Sierra Gorda" project, to cross the Atacama Desert from North to South, linking various mining centers in Northern Chile. The concession is for a period of 20 years and portions of the line are expected to begin operation in 2013.

        In December 2012, we were awarded by ANEEL the construction, operation and maintainance of three 500 kV AC power transmission lines, which will cover a total of 2,472 km across 8 states in Brazil.

        The projects began in March 2013 and come into operation in the same month in 2016. The first concession comprises four transmission lines covering 1,816 km and two electricity stations in the states of Tocantins, Piauí, Bahía and Maranhao; while the second concession involves the construction of a 286 km transmission line and two substations in the states of Ceará, Paraíba and Río Grande do Norte. The third and final concession won by Abengoa consists of a single transmission line of 370 km between the Estreito and Itabirito 2 stations in the state of Minas Gerais.

        In February 2013, we were selected by the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mining through the private investment promotion agency AoInversion, the construction, operation and maintainance of three power transmission lines covering a total distance of 354 km in Peru.

        In May 2013, we were chosen by ANEEL to carry out the engineering, design, construction, maintenance and commission of three new electricity commissions in Brazil which will cover 2,920 km. The first concession

236


Table of Contents

Australia. Our Solar segment has invested in solar power plants and has developed expertise in the three core solar technologies — solar towers, parabolic troughs and photovoltaics. We are also working to develop more efficient solar technologies. Our Solar segment is the leader in the Spanish solar industry in terms of MW allocated in the Pre-Allocation Registry of the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade (having been awarded 13 plants totaling 650 MW). We also operate an integrated solar combined-cycle power plant in Algeria, with a capacity of 150 MW.

        Our Solar segment has a portfolio of approximately 943 MW of plants in operation and 710 MW of plants under construction. The table below provides a breakdown of our solar plants as of the date of this prospectus.

Solar Power Plants under construction and development

        Our Solar segment oversees the engineering and construction of our solar power plants. As of the date of this prospectus, we oversee the engineering and construction of 4 solar power plants with a total installed capacity of 810 MW, 560 MW in the United States and 150 MW in South Africa. We have also 110 MW in Israel in Pre-Construction.

        In the international market, during 2012, we continued construction of the following plants: Shams 1, a 100 MW CSP plant in the United Arab Emirates; Solana, a 280 MW CSP plant, with six hours of molten salt storage, located in Gila Bend, Arizona; and a 280 MW CSP plant in Mojave, California. Additionally, in the last

237


Table of Contents

quarter of 2012, we started construction of a 100 MW CSP plant, with three hours of molten salt storage, and a 50 MW Solar Tower-technology CSP plant, with two hours of molten salt storage, both located in Upington, South Africa.

        The process of constructing a CSP solar power plant takes approximately 18 to 36 months, depending on the size of the plant and whether it will have capacity to store solar energy. The process of constructing a PV plant is generally much shorter, typically six months or less. The construction of a plant is performed by a contractor pursuant to a turnkey construction contract entered into based on market rates. Our Engineering and Construction activity is the principal contractor for our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity to construct its CSP and PV projects. On occasion, we enter into turnkey construction contracts with temporary business associations (unión temporal de empresas) in which our Engineering and Construction activity or other companies may participate. We undertake a large part of the basic and sophisticated engineering work in the plants using our own solar technologies.

        We are involved in the development of solar power plants from the initial stage. These activities principally involve site selection, securing land rights, assessment of solar resources, administrative processing and obtaining relevant authorizations and connections to the required power grid and related infrastructure. These activities average between one and three years for CSP and PV plants but can vary significantly between regions and countries. Once a potential site has been located and the relevant land rights have been secured, we proceed to present the project to the appropriate authorities with respect to both the generation facilities and evacuation infrastructure. During the administrative process, we are required to submit extensive documentation to the relevant authorities for each site in order to obtain the necessary permits, licenses and authorizations. Depending on the jurisdiction, this process may involve simply an application to the competent public authority or, in addition, a submission of the project for public consultation, such as is generally the case in the United States.

        In recent years, we have focused on developing solar power plants in Spain. As a result, we currently have a portfolio of 650 MW which have been filed with the power register (Registro de Potencia) of the Spanish Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade, and therefore have the licenses required to commence construction. Solar power plants in Spain work under feed-in tariff schemes, establishing a regulated price, or a premium plus market price, for all the energy produced. This scheme, however, has been modified after the latest sector reform, as described in the "Regulation" section. In Spain, we have partnered with a number of companies, including E.ON, Itochu Corporation and JGC Corporation, to construct and operate CSP plants.

        In February 2008, our Solar segment signed a power purchase agreement with Arizona Public Service, the largest electric company in Arizona (United States), pursuant to which we are building and will operate one of the largest CSP power plants in the world (Solana). On December 21, 2010, the DOE announced a final commitment for a $1,450 million loan guarantee to our Solar segment to support the construction and start-up of the plant. This commitment helped us close the financing of the plant in December 2010. We commenced construction shortly after securing such financing. Once operational, the plant will have a generation capacity of 280 MW, six hours of molten salt heat storage, and will be able to supply to 70,000 homes.

        In California, we have started construction in 2011 on the Mojave power plant equipped with parabolic trough technology in the Mojave Desert and benefitting from a power purchase agreement ("PPA") signed in 2009 with the electric utility Pacific Gas and Electric Company. This project obtained a $1,202 million loan guarantee from the DOE in order to support its construction and start-up of the Mojave Solar power plant. When it is brought on line, Mojave Solar, with a gross generation capacity of 280 MW, will be able to supply power to 90,000 households.

        In July 2011, we launched the first hybrid solar-gas plant in Hassi-R' Mel (Algeria), with 150 MW capacity that will generate electricity using both natural gas and solar energy. This combination of conventional and sustainable technologies enables energy to be produced from the sun without compromising the functionality and stability of the power grid.

        In December 2011, the South African Department of Energy selected us to construct and operate a 100 MW parabolic-trough solar plant and a 50 MW superheated steam tower technology solar plant together with our joint venture partner, Industrial Development Corporation. We own a 51% interest in such joint venture. These plants obtained non-recourse financing throughout 2012 and are under construction at the date of this prospectus. In August 2013, Abengoa achieved an important milestone in the department of these projects with the announcement of the completion of the construction of the Khi Solar One tower.

        In June 2013 a joint company created by Abengoa and Shikun & Binui, an Israeli based global infrastructure group, was selected to build, own and operate a 110 MW solar trough plant with storage located in the Negev desert. Construction is expected to start in 2014 in the Ashalim area of the Negev Desert once the power purchase agreement and the project financing are closed.

Solar Power Plants in Operation

        Plants in operation include the production and sale of electricity as well as the operation and maintenance of solar power plants. Once a CSP or PV solar power plant enters into operation, it generates revenue by selling the electricity generated. The production level and price are two factors that directly affect the amount of revenue generated. Electricity sales are therefore critical to maximize income from electricity generation. The mechanisms used to determine the sale price of electricity vary from jurisdiction and include regimes based on regulated tariffs to those where an ad hoc tariff is negotiated and agreed for each project. Once the plant is operational, we also provide all materials, tools and labor and cover all costs of staffing in connection with the plants preventive and scheduled maintenance.

        In CSP, we have seventeen commercial plants in operation totaling 931 MW. The first to become operational was PS10, an 11 MW solar tower power plant that commenced operations in 2007. Two years later, PS20, a 20 MW solar tower plant, started up, also located in the Solúcar Platform. In 2008, a solar trough plant was installed at PS10, the first commercial operating solar trough plant in Spain and representing part of our continuing efforts to increase our familiarity with the latest technologies. In 2010, three 50 MW trough technology plants commenced operations, making for a total of 181 MW of CSP in operation. In 2011, 2012, and as of the date of this prospectus, twelve plants commenced operations: ten 50 MW plants, all in Spain (Helioenergy 1 and 2, Solacor 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3, Helios 1 and 2, Solaben 1 and 6), a 150 MW hybrid solar-gas plant in Hassi-R' Mel (Algeria) and the first large scale concentrating solar power plant in the Middle East, Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates), with 100 MW of power output capacity.

        In the field of PV energy, our first 1.2 MW PV plant, located in Seville (Spain), has now completed its third year of commercial production, thereby demonstrating the commercial viability of the low concentration technology it utilizes. The 1 MW Copero plant in Seville (Spain) is also in operation, as well as the 1.9 MW Casaquemada PV plant in Sanlucar la Mayor, Seville (Spain), the 1.9 MW Linares PV plant in Linares (Spain) and the 5.7 MW Las Cabezas PV plant in Las Cabezas de San Juan, Seville (Spain), all of which have reached expected levels of production.

Water Infrastructure

        The Water segment had revenue of €20.6 million and Consolidated EBITDA of €16.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and revenue of €20.7 million and Consolidated EBITDA of €11.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition, our Water segment had total net fixed assets of €383.1 million and €368.3 million as of June 30, 2013 and as of December 31, 2012 respectively.

        Within our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity, our Water segment constructs and operates water generation, transportation and management facilities, including desalination, treatment and water purification plants and water pipelines pursuant to long-term concession agreements. In recent years, the number of partnerships between the public and the private sectors to manage and execute water infrastructure projects on a concession basis has grown significantly. The form of a particular concession may

239


Table of Contents

vary significantly depending on the type of project, the country involved, the individual public-private negotiations and the specific purpose of the concession.

        We currently have a portfolio of ten operational concession projects. We are in the process of constructing two additional concessions in Tenes (Algeria) (200,000 m3/day) and a desalination plant in Nungua (Ghana) (60,000 m3/day). These projects are scheduled to be in operation between 2013 and 2014.

        The table below shows certain information regarding our current operating concessions in our Water segment as of the date of this prospectus. All such concessions were built and are currently operated under BOOT schemes.

Industry and Competition

        Over the past 24 months the energy landscape has changed significantly in part due to: political upheaval and civil unrest in certain countries in the Middle East and North Africa, the incident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan, new moratoria on shale gas drilling in the Canadian province of Quebec and France, expectations of strong economic growth in China and uncertainty surrounding global agreements regarding greenhouse gas emissions including Canada's withdrawal from the Kyoto Protocol. Despite these changes and the uncertain economic environment, world energy demand is expected to increase due principally to demand growth experienced by many large non-OECD economies such as China and India (1.9% and 3.2% per year respectively in the period from 2010 to 2035 according to World Energy Outlook 2012) and renewable energy is expected to play a more important role in satisfying energy demands which may lead to more projects available under BOOT schemes.

        According to the International Energy Agency ("IEA"), global energy consumption is expected to gradually increase to 17,197 Mtoe by 2035, a 35% increase from 2010. In the same period, demand for renewable energy (wind, solar, geothermal, marine, biomass and hydro) is expected to almost triple from 1,684 Mtoe in 2010 to 3,079 Mtoe in 2035, and the share of renewables in the electricity generation market is expected to increase from 20% in 2010 to 30% in 2035 (Source: World Energy Outlook 2012, IEA).

        In order to meet growing energy demand, significant investment must be made in the power sector in order to increase installed production capacity and to expand and improve T&D infrastructure. The IEA estimates a total investment of $16,867 billion for the 2012-2035 period, or an average of $733 billion per year as follows:

    total investment in new power plants estimated at $9,986 billion, out of which $4,472 billion or 46% corresponds to renewables excluding hydro (62% including hydro);

    total investment in power transmission infrastructure estimated at $1,839 billion globally, of which $1,137 billion is located in markets where we have historically focused (mainly the U.S., India, China and Latin America); and

    total investment in biofuels of $360 billion, out of which $240 billion is expected to be in bioethanol.

(Source: World Energy Outlook 2012)

        According to Bloomberg New Energy Finance, in 2010 renewable energy for the first time surpassed fossil fuels in new power plant investments. Investment in new wind, solar, biomass and marine projects totaled $187 billion compared with $157 billion for fossil fuels (excluding nuclear energy). 2010 was also the first time that expenditure in developing countries, mainly China, exceeded that in the developed world and this trend is expected to continue. Investment in renewable energy may double to $395 billion per year by 2020 led by growth in offshore wind and solar projects.

        We face several different competitors in our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity. In the Transmission segment, our principal competitors are Eletrobrás, Cemig and ISA. In the Water segment, our principal competitors are Veolia Environnement S.A., Hyflux Ltd., Doosan Ltd., Suez Environnement, S.A, Fisia Italimpianti S.p.A. and Aquatech, Ltd. The principal competitors of our Solar segment along the CSP value chain are Spanish companies ACS, SENER Ingeniería y Sistemas, S.A.

Customers and Contracts

        Revenue from our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity comes from selling water, electricity, and power transmission line capacity. Our customers vary from governments in countries where feed-in-tariffs are in place (in the case of Spain, utilities are the electricity offtakes; but a government agency pays the tariff and premium), to electrical and water utilities, with which we would typically sign power purchase agreements.

        Our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity primarily utilizes concession contracts, which include the operation and maintenance of the asset for a significant period of time, typically 20 to 30 years. There are several forms of concession contracts, but the most frequently used are BOO and BOOT.

Industrial Production

Overview

        Our Industrial Production activity develops and produces biofuels for transportation which are used as components of gasoline or for direct blending with gasoline or diesel. We also produce DGS, sugar from our production plants in Brazil, electricity and carbon dioxide as by-products of the ethanol production process for sale to third parties. This activity includes the segment of Biofuels. Our Biofuels segment is located in Spain, France, The Netherlands, the United States and Brazil.

        Our Biofuel segment had revenue of €984.4 million and Consolidated EBITDA of €40.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and revenue of €2,138.2 million and Consolidated EBITDA of €91.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition, our Industrial Production activity had total net fixed assets of €2,606.2 million and 2,657.8 million as of June 30, 2013 and as of December 31, 2012, respectively.

        The Biofuels segment is dedicated to the production and development of biofuels, primarily ethanol for transport that employs cereal and sugarcane as raw materials. Our ethanol production facilities in Europe, the United States and Brazil have a combined production capacity of 2,915 million liters ("Ml") in operation. We also have a biodiesel plant in Spain, with a capacity of 225 Ml per year. We are the only company with a significant presence in Europe, the United States and Brazil, the three largest biofuel markets in the world.

        Ethanol is used for Ethyl Butyl Ether ("ETBE") production, as a component of all gasoline or for direct blending with gasoline. Biodiesel is used for direct blending with diesel or in a pure form as a substitute for diesel. We also produce by-products from our biofuel production, including DGS, sugar, electricity and carbon dioxide, which are sold to third parties.

        We are Europe's largest bioethanol producer with an annual production capacity of 1,275 Ml. We operate three ethanol plants in Spain in Cartagena, Murcia; Teixeiro, La Coruña; and Babilafuente, Salamanca. These three ethanol plants have a combined annual production capacity of 545 Ml. In addition we operate a fourth plant in Lacq (France), which has an annual production capacity of 250 Ml; a new 480 Ml ethanol production capacity plant in Rotterdam (The Netherlands) commenced operation in September 2010 and is Europe's largest ethanol plant by production capacity.

        We also produce biodiesel at a production plant in San Roque, Cádiz (Spain), which began supplying biodiesel in March 2009 and produces 225 Ml of biodiesel annually. This plant is located on the premises of a CEPSA refinery; CEPSA is also the customer for a significant portion of the facility's output.

        We are one of the largest ethanol producers in the United States, with an annual production capacity of over 1,440 Ml. Most of the ethanol produced in the United States is marketed in the form of e10 (90% gasoline and 10% ethanol), although sales of e85 (a mixture of 15% gasoline and 85% ethanol) have been increasing steadily. In 2010, construction work was completed on two 340 Ml production capacity plants located in Madison, Illinois, and Mount Vernon, Indiana; both plants became fully operational in early 2010.

In September 2011, we received a $132 million loan guarantee from the DOE to support the funding for the construction of the first commercial scale biorefinery facility to produce renewable ethanol fuel from cellulosic plant fiber in Hugoton, Kansas. Our plants of Colwich (Kansas) and Portales (New Mexico) are temporarily shut down since the first quarter of 2012 due to unfavourable market conditions.

        We are a significant producer of ethanol and sugar in Brazil, operating three sugarcane ethanol plants which have a crush consumption capacity of 6.5 million tons of sugarcane for the production of approximately 200 Ml of ethanol and a sugar production capacity of 645,000 tons per year. Brazil is one of the world's largest markets for ethanol and ethanol production and is expected to continue as such, due to the success of flex-fuel vehicles that can run on either gasoline or ethanol. Flex-fuel vehicles currently account for nearly 90% of the vehicles sold in Brazil. In 2010, we finished the construction of two energy co-generation units at our sugarcane ethanol plants, each with an installed capacity of 70 MW and one of which can be upgraded to 140 MW. The plants use sugarcane "bagasse" as the raw material to fuel their boilers, which produce the steam to generate electricity and heat for production processes. These plants became operational in August and September 2010, and their excess output is fully connected to the power grid operated by Eletrobrás, a major Brazilian power utility.

        We believe there is a significant market opportunity for us in the second-generation biofuels industry, which utilize biomass rather than cereal and other food crops as the primary raw material. We have invested continually in R&D&i over the past decade and have developed our own proprietary process and enzymes. We have been operating a pilot plant in York, Nebraska (United States) since 2007 and a demonstration plant in Salamanca, Spain since 2009. We have commenced construction of our first second-generation commercial plant in Hugoton, Kansas (United States), for which we were awarded $132 million loan guarantee financing from DOE and $88 million in grants since 2007 from the DOE. This plant is expected to start operations in 2013 and will result in significant cost saving, while also providing opportunities to license its biomass technology to third parties. In addition, the plant will position us well to potentially enter the industries of biomaterials and bioproducts.

        In April 2013, we began operating the first demonstration plant using waste-to-biofuels technology. The demonstration plant in Babilafuente (Salamanca, Spain) has the capacity to treat 25,000 tons of municipal solid waste from which up to 1.5 million liters of bioethanol will be produced for use as fuel.

Operations

        The operations of our Industrial Production activity's Biofuels segment represents a single integrated process that includes production; raw materials procurement; ethanol origination; and the trading of ethanol, DGS and sugar.

Production

        We produce ethanol at our facilities in Europe, the United States and Brazil from cereal grains and sugarcane by means of biochemical processes and treatments. One of our European production facilities also generates biodiesel. In the process of producing ethanol and biodiesel, we generate various secondary byproducts, including DGS, sugar, electricity and carbon dioxide, which are collected and sold to third parties.

Procurement of Raw Materials

        Raw materials account for approximately 60% to 70% of the production costs of biofuels. The most important typically for production are corn, wheat, barley and sorghum. The production of biodiesel relies on various oils, including soybean and palm. Since operations began, the Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity has built up experience in the supply and logistics of commodities. We have also established direct supply agreements with farmers and traders to secure the necessary volume of raw materials for our plants.

        In Brazil, we grow sugarcane while preserving sustainable rural development, biodiversity and regional economic growth. Our production plants are supplied through agreements with landowners, performing the required tasks for use of the land, and by providing the necessary resources and advice to farmers in order to start production.

Ethanol, DGS and Sugar Trading

        We trade in ethanol, DGS and sugar to manage our demands for these products. We have established offices in key markets for global ethanol trading, including Rotterdam (The Netherlands); St. Louis, Missouri (United States); and São Paulo (Brazil). Market fluctuations, political conditions in different geographical areas and other factors affecting our business, both in terms of acquisition of raw materials and in the production of marketed products, are analyzed globally to obtain a better view of international markets.

Products

    Ethanol

        We produce ethanol at our facilities in Europe and the United States from cereal grains, and in Brazil from sugarcane. Ethanol is obtained to produce either ETBE or for direct blending with gasoline as e85, e25 and e10. In addition to its renewable origin and being biodegradable, distilled ethanol has many advantages over fossil fuels, it contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, increases energy autonomy and diversification, reduces fossil fuel dependence, stimulates growth in local economies, creates jobs in rural areas, and creates cleaner fuels that produce less sulfur dioxide and fewer particles.

    Biodiesel

        Biodiesel is a renewable fuel formed by long-chain fatty acid methyl or ethyl esters. It is obtained through the chemical reaction of methanol (or ethanol) with vegetable oils (rape, sunflower, soy or palm). Biodiesel does not contain sulfur and, when compared with diesel derived from oil, produces lower emissions of greenhouse gas (including carbon dioxide), carbon monoxide and particles and other polluting products.

    DGS

        DGS, a high protein compound used as feedstock for cattle, is obtained as a secondary product from the extraction of starch from cereal grains. In Europe and the United States, DGS is subject to strict quality controls that guarantee that its nutritional properties and products derived therefrom meet relevant food safety legislation. In Europe, Bureau Veritas certifies that our DGS is in compliance with the standards set by the relevant European food quality and safety requirements. Work is also being conducted to obtain a European specification for the product. In the United States, our DGS product fulfills the specifications required by the Association of American Feed Control Officials, which is responsible for developing and implementing uniform and equitable laws, regulations, standards and enforcement policies for regulating the manufacture, distribution and sale of animal foods.

    Sugar

        In Brazil, we produce sugar from sugarcane grinding. Liquid is separated from bagasse during grinding and undergoes the necessary filtration and chemical processes to neutralize its pH. Currently, we have an estimated 675,000 tons of crystal sugar production, of which most is exported, taking advantage of the optimal location of our plants near ports.

    Electricity

        Some of our biofuel process plants contain co-generation units to produce the necessary steam and electricity to run the ethanol production process. Excess electricity generated is sold to public utilities such as Eletrobrás in Brazil. Each of our plants in Spain and our facility in Rotterdam (The Netherlands) has a gas turbine co-generation plant. Our facilities in Brazil generate steam and heat from the combustion of bagasse obtained after the sugarcane milling process for use in the biofuel production process and in generating electricity. The aggregate amount of capacity from co-generation units was 280 MW as of December 31, 2012. Out of these co-generation units, units with a capacity of 234 MW are operated under long-term

contracts, such as feed-in-tariffs or PPAs. However, these are not included in our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity as these are bioethanol assets.

    Carbon Dioxide

        At some of our plants, the carbon dioxide emissions from the production of ethanol are captured and sold to third parties. At our facilities in York, Nebraska and Colwich, Kansas (both the United States); captured carbon dioxide is sold to third parties who process the gas and sell it for use in the beverage and flash freezing industries. For our 480 MI ethanol plant in Rotterdam (The Netherlands), we have been carrying out studies regarding the possibility of supplying the carbon dioxide emissions from the plant's production to greenhouses.

Competition

        Our main competitors in the global biofuel market are The Archer Daniels Midland Company, Cosan Limited, CropEnergies AG, Green Plains Renewable Energy, Grupo São Martinho, The Andersons Inc., Verbio, Ensus, Poet Bio Refining and Valero.

Customers and Contracts

        Our customer base is mainly comprised of oil companies, including Repsol, CEPSA, Total S.A and BP, and traders, including Cargill, Incorporated.

        We have long-term supply contracts for the delivery of ethanol from two of our Spanish facilities and for the delivery of biodiesel from our biodiesel plant. For the remaining facilities, the production is sold under supply contracts ranging in duration from one to six months. To monitor and converse profit margins, we purchase raw materials according to the same time horizon in which we set ethanol production.

Suppliers

        In our European operations, we consolidate the purchasing of raw materials (cereal grains, oleaginous seeds and vegetable oils) necessary for the operation of our European ethanol and biodiesel plants with the marketing of associated co-products through a single entity: our fully owned subsidiary Ecoagrícola, S.A. For the past ten years, Ecoagrícola, S.A. has sourced its materials by means of two well-differentiated mechanisms: purchasing on the free market and direct contracting with farmers.

        We also centralize the critical functions of grain procurement, ethanol and DGS co-product marketing, and hedging and risk management for all commodities, including energy needs for our U.S. operations. The concentration of these functions into one specialized entity for our biofuel business in the United States is critical to achieve our goals of consistency, efficiency, and identification as one common brand.

        With respect to our Brazilian operations, we have reached agreements with local farmers for the supply of sugarcane that satisfies the feedstock requirements for our production facilities in Brazil.

Research, Development and Innovation

        R&D&i involves activities which continuously improve our processes and products, but also generating new future options with breakthrough technologies. R&D&i is undertaken by our activities in furtherance of the demands of our respective markets to provide the necessary competitive capacities for us on an ongoing basis. The goal of our R&D&i program is to provide innovative solutions for sustainability, create value over the long-term and continue to provide us with a competitive edge.

        We have continued to increase our efforts in R&D&i (despite the prolonging of the global financial crisis during this period), based on our strong belief that to achieve real future benefits, such investment requires continuous input which should not be adversely affected by economic cycles.

246


Table of Contents

        We have strengthened our presence, and in certain cases, our technological leadership, in various institutions, public forums and private forums in which cooperation is encouraged among large technology companies, and where the short- and long-term future of R&D&i is decided.

        We have undertaken R&D&i in accordance with the requirements identified for our markets. The majority of our projects are aligned with the research and development objectives of the public administrations of Spain (the Ministry of Industry and Energy), of Europe (under research and development framework programs) and of the United States (the DOE).

        We collaborate with some of the most reputable research centers in the world, such as the DOE in the United States, National Renewable Energy Laboratory in the United States, Deutsche Zentrum für Luft und Raumfahrt in Germany and Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas in Spain. In addition, we have received substantial economic support from government entities such as the DOE and the European Union.

        During this period, we have made strategic investments in pioneering companies in the United States and Canada, developing and owning technologies which are defined as "high priority," such as new Concentrated Solar Power plants, second generation biofuels, biorefineries and water treatment technologies, with the objective of enabling internationalization and the generation of value through these technologies in key emerging markets.

        In the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, our investment in R&D&i totaled €91 million, €91 million and €69 million, respectively, including investments in our recycling segment sold in June 2013. Of our investment in R&D&i, amounts expensed represented €7 million, €26 million and €36 million, respectively and amounts capitalized represented €84 million, €62 million and, €32 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2013, we have approximately 800 people engaged in R&D&i activities in different centers, mainly in Seville (Spain), Madrid (Spain), St. Louis, Missouri (United States) and Denver, Colorado (United States). Management estimates that investment in R&D&i in 2013 will be approximately €110 million.

Abengoa Research

        Abengoa Research, created in February 2011, is engaged in technological research and development activities within the fields of energy and sustainable development. This research center, a forerunner in private research in Spain, is intended as a top-rank science and technology center, valorizing our accumulated knowledge by developing existing and future real applications. By engaging in R&D, Abengoa Research seeks to expand upon existing knowledge while generating new approaches, rooted in our scientific knowledge of the state of the art and the multidisciplinary skill sets of our human team.

        The company's specific objectives are akin to those of a research center but are tailored to Abengoa's strategy and geared towards the present and future business needs and interests of the company. This includes generating and exploiting patents and other intellectual and industrial property and conducting studies, preparing reports and performing scientific-technical projects.

        Projects to date have focused on the areas of research in which Abengoa is currently interested: solar power, bioenergy, water, waste, hydrogen, marine power, and so on. The center has also been working on an Abengoa-specific strategic technology agenda for the coming years in relation to the areas described above.

Engineering and Construction

        R&D&i is a strategic area in our Engineering and Construction activity for future planning. R&D&i activities are undertaken by a number of different Group entities through the investigation, development and application of new technologies which focus on combating climate change and contribute to sustainable development, including, inter alia:

    reducing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions in the construction sector;

247

    developing hydrogen technology with pioneering R&D&i projects in the area of clean electricity generation through hydrogen batteries;

    improving energy efficiency through the development of new technologies;

    developing electrical storage systems to improve grids dispatchability reducing transport loses; and

    investigating and innovating in the field of new renewable energy sources.

Concession-Type Infrastructures

        Our R&D&i in our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity is undertaken in partnership with numerous research institutes and universities in Spain and elsewhere.

        At our two research centers in Spain and the United States, the R&D&i team of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity's Solar segment is involved in the research of high-temperature concentration of solar power and photovoltaic research. Our Solar segment has undertaken various R&D&i projects with the backing of the DOE, while also continuing to work on different projects within the Seventh Framework Program of the European Union, including the Solugas Consortium in collaboration with the Deutsche Zentrum für Luft und Raumfahrt and New Algerian Company, among others, and on the Innpacto projects against the backdrop of the Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas programs in Spain. Our Solar segment R&D&i team also collaborates with leading research centers worldwide, including universities and technological institutes. The independent research centers with which the Solar segment's R&D&i team has worked include the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in the United States, Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas in Spain and the Aerospace Centre in Germany. In addition to the Solúcar Platform, considered one of the world's leading centers in solar energy research, our Solar segment has increased its R&D&i capabilities with the inauguration of the Soland R&D center, with more than 3,500 m2 of labs. Our Solar segment's main R&D&i programs are focused on: increasing the efficiency of its CSP tower technology; reducing the components cost of its CSP through technology and high concentrated photovoltaic (HCPV); and increasing the dispatchability of our thermal storage technology.

        Our R&D&i in the Water segment is structured into three areas: desalination, water treatment and water cycle sustainability. The desalination area focuses on improving the efficiency of the reverse osmosis process and lowering our investment, operation and maintenance costs and is also engaged in the validation and conceptual design of a new and cost-effective remineralization process for desalination plants. The water treatment area seeks to optimize membrane-based water treatment processes so as to save energy and produce less sludge, develop sludge treatment and elimination technologies as supercritical oxidation. The water cycle sustainability area seeks to optimize energy use in water infrastructure, develop hydro power and marine energy capabilities, create sustainable water management models, and develop and apply sustainability criteria in the design of the water area's solutions. In addition, our Water segment's R&D&i team also collaborates with leading universities, institutes, and public bodies including Foundation Euskoiker, the School of Industrial Engineering in Bilbao (Spain), the Spanish Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade, the Ministry of Innovation and Science and the Center for Industrial Technological Development.

Intellectual Property

        Given the progress that we have made in our technology development, in particular in CSP and bioproducts technologies, we have created the office of patents and technological surveillance as a fundamental tool for protecting our intellectual property. The office of patents and technological surveillance determines whether or not to file patents in relation to the knowledge, products and technology that we produce. Currently, we have applied for 235 patents, of which 97 have been granted.

248


Table of Contents

        The office of patents and technological surveillance has implemented intellectual property ("IP") protection policies and procedures throughout our businesses. These IP protection policies and procedures are applied to all knowledge that has, or might have, commercial value whether or not it is capable of being patented, including R&D&i and know-how, and any documentation (in printed or electronic format) that contains any confidential proprietary information.

        The measures that we take to protect our IP include the entry into confidentiality, non-disclosure and/or non-compete agreements with employees, service providers and counterparties, as appropriate, and the dissemination throughout the Group of an internal security code and internal security protocol.

        In addition, we take steps to protect the trademarks, business names and distinctive designs used in connection with our activities, products and services, although not all of these have been registered in the jurisdictions in which we operate.

        Although we take measures to protect our intellectual property, we do not consider that our business is dependant on any single patent or license, new manufacturing process or other types of intellectual property.

Information Technology

        We use information technology developed in-house and also provided by third parties for processing plant maintenance, construction management and operational management. Our systems integrate data and generate stock, orders and efficient sourcing and delivery routes. We are presently implementing a group-wide data warehouse and business intelligence system and a global sourcing (purchasing and procurement) system across all of our businesses. We utilize software and other information technology licensed from third parties to manage communications with our suppliers and customers.

        We believe that our information technology systems infrastructure that supports our various business operations is secure and robust. Our critical system servers are housed offsite in data centers. The remaining system servers are housed in secure, temperature-controlled internal data rooms. We have back-up and disaster recovery plans in place which are reviewed on a periodic basis.

Environmental Matters

        Our activities are subject to significant environmental regulation. This requires, among other things, that we commission environmental impact studies for future projects and that we obtain licenses, permits and other authorizations required to construct and operate relevant projects. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in environmental regulation in Spain, the European Union and other jurisdictions in which we operate. These include regulations in relation to carbon dioxide emissions and limitations on polluting emissions from large plants and facilities. See "Regulation." See also "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business and the Markets in Which We Operate—Our business is subject to stringent environmental regulation."

        We have specifically established within our management regulations, applicable to all of our activities, the obligation to implement environmental management systems certified under the ISO 14001 standard of the International Organization for Standardization. As of December 31, 2012, 92.84% of Group companies, in terms of sales volume, had environmental management systems certified under the ISO 14001 standard and 98.04% held valid ISO 9001 standard certificates for their quality management systems.

Insurance

        We maintain the types and amounts of insurance coverage that we believe are consistent with customary industry practices in the jurisdictions in which we operate, and consider our insurance coverage to be adequate for our business. Our insurance policies cover employee-related accidents and injuries, property damage, machinery breakdowns, fixed assets, facilities and liability deriving from our activities or products, including environmental liability. We maintain business interruption insurance for interruptions resulting from

249


Table of Contents

incidents covered by insurance policies. Our insurance policies also cover directors' and officers' liability and third-party insurance. We have not had any material claims under our insurance policies that would either invalidate our insurance policies or cause a material increase to our insurance premiums. We cannot assure you, however, that our insurance coverage will adequately protect us from all risks that may arise or in amounts sufficient to prevent any material loss. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business and the Markets in which We Operate—Our insurance may be insufficient to cover relevant risks and the cost of our insurance may increase."

Risk Management and Internal Control

        Our risk management system comprises two distinct systems that collectively manage risk at all levels of our Group: our shared management systems, which aim to mitigate business risks and our internal control systems which are organized to permit compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX") to mitigate risks related to the reliability of financial information. The system operates live and undergoes continual modification to remain up to date with our business and with employees also being issued a risk management manual. In addition, we have internal auditing to ensure the compliance with and the proper functioning of our risk management system.

        The risk management system includes the identification, evaluation, response, monitoring and reporting of risks and is fully integrated into our strategic planning process, our business objectives and our daily operations.

        We have implemented common management systems in order to coordinate and streamline our worldwide operations across our activities. Our systems are based on two key pillars of: (i) the definition of a set of management standards for the Group's activities; and (ii) monitoring of project and business performance in real time in order to take appropriate corrective measures, if required.

        The mission of our shared management systems is based on the following specific objectives:

    Unification of actions: To establish a single criterion for the carrying out of actions in all our businesses and geographies.

    Reinforcement of corporate identity: To achieve a strong corporate identity recognizable by key stakeholders.

    Control and reduction of risks: To manage risks in a uniform manner and thus mitigate them.

    Optimization of management: To be efficient and effective in the management of the company both within businesses and geographically.

    Value creation for stakeholders: To differentiate and individualize the management of the main stakeholders in order to provide the greatest value-add to each one.

    Profitability: To contribute to financial performance through active management.

        Our risk management system uses a systematic approach to identify events and to evaluate, prioritize, monitor and respond to any risks which may prevent the successful execution of our strategy, business objectives and daily operations.

        The main objectives sought through the risk management system are the following:

    To understand and control the risks to which the Group is exposed.

    To establish a system which optimizes the evaluation of risk management by the entire Group, allowing us to successfully assume and manage a greater number of risks and better understand each risk in order that we can adopt more efficient control.

    To achieve a closer alignment between our strategy and our identified risks and controls by the Group.

250


Table of Contents

    To increase senior management assurance with each decision-making process to better achieve the business objectives of the Group.

    To increase transparency of risk management and relations with stakeholders through more precise risk evaluation methods.

    To ensure compliance with all applicable risk management regulations and best market practices.

    To establish clear roles and responsibilities in the Group in order to focus on fundamental aspects of management.

    To reduce profit volatility and avoid unwanted outcomes for the Group.

        We also have a model that is aimed at identifying the potential risks in our business. This model considers four key areas that are subdivided into 20 further categories of risks, which contemplate more than 130 potential risk scenarios for the Group. The four key areas are the following:

    Strategic risks: Corporate governance, strategic and R&D&i projects, mergers, acquisitions and divestments, planning and assignment of resources, market dynamics, communication and relations with investors.

    Operational risks: Human resources, information technologies, physical assets, sales, supply chain, threats or catastrophes.

    Financial risks: Cash flow and credit, markets, taxation, capital structure, accounting and reporting.

    Compliance risks: Regulations, laws and codes of ethics and conduct.

        We were among the first European companies to have undertaken to voluntarily comply with the SOX requirements regarding auditor attestations as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. Since 2007, Abengoa has performed internal control-compliance audits in line with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") standards, pursuant to the requirements set forth in Section 404 of SOX. The independent auditors' report dated February 21, 2013 for the year ended December 31, 2012, which expresses an unqualified opinion on our internal control over financial reporting in relation to our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 in accordance with IFRS-EU and not for the purpose of this prospectus, is available on our website. The SOX audits are used to mitigate the risks related to the reliability of financial information, through a combined system of control procedures and activities in key areas of the Company.

        We have a commitment to transparency and good governance practices; our annual report now includes six independent verification reports carried out by external auditors covering the following areas: annual accounts, our SOX internal control system according to the PCAOB standards, corporate social responsibility reporting, greenhouse gas emissions inventory, corporate governance reporting and designing risk management systems according to the principles and guidelines established in ISO 31000.

Employees

        We believe relations with our employees are good and we have not experienced any significant labor disputes or work stoppages. Certain businesses participate in a series of share-based incentive schemes for directors and employees. Such programs are linked to the achievement of certain agreed upon management objectives.

Legal Proceedings

        We are involved in a number of legal, governmental, fiscal and arbitration proceedings and investigations in connection with our operations in the normal course of business. These may include actions by regulatory authorities, tax authorities, suppliers and customers, employment-related claims, contractual disputes, claims for personal injury or property damage that occur in connection with our products or services performed in relation to projects or construction sites, tax assessments, environmental claims and other matters. We establish reserves for litigation and other contingent liabilities where we consider it probable that a claim will be resolved unfavorably and where we can reasonably estimate the potential loss involved. As of June 30, 2013, we have established a reserve amounting to €26.0 million allocated to cover liabilities for litigation and other claims where Group companies are defendants. While we do not expect these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations, because of the nature of these proceedings, we are not able to predict their ultimate outcomes, some of which may be unfavorable to us.

        We have briefly summarized below the most significant of these proceedings.

    In May 2000, Abengoa Puerto Rico S.E., a subsidiary of Abengoa, S.A, brought a lawsuit against the Electricity Power Authority (Autoridad de Energía Eléctrica, "AEE") of Puerto Rico and terminated the agreement that both parties had entered into in relation to an EPC project for the construction of an electricity power station in Puerto Rico, in which the AEE was the Principal Contractor. The referred lawsuit contained different claims such as, inter alia, withholding payments, defaulted invoices, loss of future profits, damages and several other costs, which tentatively amounted to $40 million. In response to the lawsuit brought by Abengoa Puerto Rico, S.E., the AEE brought a counterclaim premised upon unlawful termination and consequential damages relating to the agreement with Abengoa Puerto Rico, S.E. and, at the same time, brought an additional lawsuit for the same amount against Abengoa and its insurer, American International Insurance Co. of Puerto Rico. The amount claimed by the AEE is approximately $450 million.

    On February 15, 2010, our subsidiary, Centro Tecnológico Palmas Altas, S.A. ("CTPA") filed a suit against Geco Alvicorp, S.L, claiming the non-existence of a termination clause in the purchase and sale agreement of certain plots in Huerta del Huracán, Spain entered into by the parties in 2007 and pursuant to which CTPA sold the plots for €46.7 million. Subsequently, Geco Alvicorp, S.L. claimed the existence of such a termination condition and has claimed the return of the purchase price plus interest. On February 16, 2011, the court ruled in CTPA's favor. Geco Alvicorp, S.L. appealed this decision on April 27, 2011; such appeal was denied on July 12, 2012. Geco has appealed this decision to the High Court of Justice (Tribunal Supremo).

    In March 2011, we initiated an arbitration procedure before the International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes in Washington, D.C. against the Mexican State for an alleged breach of the international treaty between Mexico and Spain for the reciprocal protection of

252


Table of Contents

      investments. The arbitration procedure concerned the non-renewal of a license for a waste plant in Mexico. On April 18, 2013, an arbitration order was issued in our favor that ordered the defendant to pay us $38.2 million plus interest.

    In December 2011, two related arbitration proceedings before the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce with seat in New York, United States were concluded in which our subsidiary ASA Bioenergy Holding A.G. ("ASA") filed various claims for certain breaches of contract by Mr. Adriano Gianetti Dedini Ometto and Adriano Ometto Agrícola Ltda. (the "Adriano Defendants") relating to a share purchase agreement, dated August 4, 2007 with respect to the shares of Adriano Ometto Participações Ltda. In each of the proceedings, the Adriano Defendants had filed various counterclaims. Both arbitration proceedings were decided in ASA's favor, in the approximate amounts of $20.7 million and $169.2 million respectively. Although the Adriano Defendants have appealed such arbitral awards, we believe the chances of success are low.

    On April 29, 2013, the European Commission decided to initiate an inspection on us, along with all the companies directly or indirectly under our control, including Abengoa Bioenergy Trading Europe BV, regarding our possible participation in anticompetitive agreements or actions which were allegedly aimed at manipulating the results of Platt's Market on Close (MOC) price assessment as well as denying the access of one or more companies to participation in the MOC price assessment process. According to such European Commission's decision, the suspected anticompetitive conduct, agreements and/or mutually coordinated concrete actions have allegedly existed since 2002 and would likely involve various markets for which the Platts MOC process is used to report prices, including markets for biofuels. We understand that the investigation is still in a preliminary phase, and the European Commission has not initiated formal proceedings. We believe that we and the relevant companies within the Group (including Abengoa Bioenergy Trading Europe B.V.) have at all times complied with the applicable competition laws. We are actively cooperating with the European Commission in its investigation. Nevertheless, we cannot predict the final outcome of any judicial proceedings that could be instigated in relation to the subject matter of the investigation. Should the European Commission or any subsequent judicial proceedings find that the Group has participated in anti-competitive practices, it could potentially entail (i) the imposition of fines calculated on the basis of the revenue in the affected markets, which in no case, however, may exceed ten per cent of the Group's total revenue in the year immediately preceding the imposition of the fine; and (ii) the filing of civil law claims for losses and damages by injured third parties. The imposition of fines, the cost of losses and damages and the resulting negative publicity could have a material adverse effect on the Group.

REGULATION

Overview

        We operate in a significant number of regulated markets. Our Engineering and Construction and Industrial Production activities and the Solar segment of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity are, in particular, subject to extensive regulation by governmental agencies in a number of the countries in which we operate. The degree of regulation to which our activities are subject varies by country. In a number of the countries in which we operate, regulation is carried out by national regulatory authorities. In some countries, such as the United States and, to a certain degree, Spain, there are various additional layers of regulation at the state, regional and/or local levels. In countries such as these, the scope, nature and extent of regulation may differ among the various states, regions and/or localities.

        While we believe the requisite authorizations, permits and approvals for our existing activities have been obtained and that our activities are operated in substantial compliance with applicable laws and regulations we remain subject to a varied and complex body of laws and regulations that both public officials and private parties may seek to enforce. The following is a description of the primary industry-related regulations applicable to our activities and currently in force in certain of the principal markets in which we operate.

European Union

Bioenergy Regulation

        Directive 2003/30/EC of the European Parliament and the Council, of May 8, 2003, on the promotion of the use of biofuels or other renewable fuels for transport ("Directive 2003/30/EC") set Member States national indicative targets by December 31, 2010 of 5.75% of biofuel in the content of petrol or diesel sold for transport purposes in each Member State.

        This legislation was superseded by two directives that resulted from the European Council of June 2008, in which the Council furthered its aim to develop and fulfill effective sustainability criteria for biofuels and to ensure commercial availability of second-generation biofuels, and underlined the need to assess the possible impacts of biofuel production on agricultural food products and to take action, if necessary, to address shortcomings. As a consequence, in 2009, the following new legislation was adopted:

    Directive 2009/28/EC (the "2009 Renewable Energy Directive") on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources, which sets a minimum mandatory target of 20% renewable energy consumption in the European Union by 2020, and a minimum mandatory target of 10% renewable energy in the consumption of transport fuel for all Member States by 2020.

    Directive 2009/30/EC establishes a mandatory minimum 6% reduction in the greenhouse gas emissions of road transport in the European Union between 2011 and 2020. It also increases the percentage of ethanol that can be used in mixtures with gasoline to operate motor vehicles.

        The Directives also implement a certification system to ensure the compliance of biofuels sold in the European Union with the regulated criteria of sustainability, including a minimum reduction of 35% in the emission of greenhouse gases during their life cycle compared with average emissions from petrol and diesel (increased to 50% from January 2017). A similar certification scheme is now under discussion for solid biomass.

        The Directives are presently under review in order to address concerns regarding indirect land use change arising from the promotion of biofuels.

        Following the adoption of the Directives, the European Union has adopted regulations in order to correctly implement its policy on the importation of biofuels. For instance, Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No. 211/2012 classifies a blend of 70% ethanol and 30% petrol as denatured ethanol in the Combined Nomenclature. Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No. 157/2013 of February 18, 2013

imposes a definitive antidumping duty on imports of bioethanol originated in the United States. Similar trade defence actions have been undertaken to protect the European biodiesel market.

Solar Regulation

        The Kyoto Protocol, ratified by the European Union and its Member States on May 31, 2002, imposed on the European Union a target of reducing its emissions of greenhouse gases by 8%. On November 26, 1997, the European Union published a white paper (the "White Paper") which outlined a strategy and a community-wide action plan aimed at doubling energy production from renewable energy sources in the European Union to 12% of total energy consumption by 2010 from 6% in 1996. The White Paper proposed a number of measures to promote the use of renewable energy sources, including measures designed to provide better access for renewable energy sources to the electricity market.

        Directive 2001/77/EC of the European Parliament and Council of September 27, 2001 (the "2001 Renewable Energy Directive") encourages the development of electricity produced from renewable energy sources (non-fossil fuel sources such as wind, solar, hydropower, biomass and relief gas) by requiring Member States to set indicative national targets for the consumption of electricity produced from renewable energy sources consistent with the European Commission's target of generating 12% of the European Union's energy and 22% of the European Union's electricity from renewable energy sources by 2010. The 2001 Renewable Energy Directive was amended and repealed by the 2009 Renewable Energy Directive which set mandatory national overall targets consistent with at least a 20% share of energy from renewable energy sources in the European Union's gross final consumption of energy in 2020.

Spain

Bioenergy Regulation

        The use of biofuel has various environmental, energy and socio-economic benefits over petroleum fuels, making it a potentially useful tool in the implementation of European policies against climate change and reducing dependence on oil.

        EU institutions have issued several directives in order to establish strict technical and environmental specifications for different petroleum products. These directives have been enacted into Spanish legislation. Recent regulation has resulted in the incorporation of innovative development in the legislation governing this activity, including the introduction of the obligation of trading low sulfur fuel in Spain (in accordance with the EU strategy on air quality and environmental protection) and the incorporation of provisions concerning the use of biofuels.

        Subsequently, Royal Decree 61/2006, of January 31, providing specifications for petrol, diesel, fuel oil and liquefied petroleum gases and which regulates the use of certain biofuels (Real Decreto, 61/2006 de 31 enero por el que se determinan las especificaciones gasolinas, gasóleos, fuelóleos y gases licuados del petróleo y se regula el uso de determinados biocarburantes) ("Royal Decree 61/2006"), was issued in order to comply with the necessary information procedure in relation to technical regulations. Royal Decree 61/2006 introduced the indicative value of 5.75% as the minimum percentage (to be applied in Spain not later than December 31, 2010) of biofuel content in all petrol and diesel sold for transportation purposes. This percentage was increased to 5.83% in the 2005-2010 Renewable Energy Plan.

        Royal Decree 1027/2006, of September 15, modified Royal Decree 61/2006 regarding the sulfur content of marine fuels, in accordance with Directive 2005/33/EC of the European Parliament and Council, of July 6, 2005 which amends Directive 1999/32/EC regarding the sulfur content of marine fuels. Royal Decrees 1088/2010, of September 3, 459/2011 of April 11 and 1361/2011 of October 7 updated the applicable specifications and targets with relatively few changes. Royal Decree 459/2011 increases the biodiesel target to 7% which is helpful for the Spanish biodiesel industry.

255

        On November 4, 2011, Royal Decree 1597/2011 was approved, regulating biofuels and bioliquids sustainability criteria, the National Sustainability Verification System and the dual value of some biofuels to the effects of their counting (Real Decreto 1579/2011, de 4 de noviembre, que regula los criterios de sostenibilidad de los biocarburantes y biolíquidos, el Sistema Nacional de Verificación de la Sostenibilidad y el doble valor de algunos biocarburantes a efectos de su cómputo).

        In relation to the Spanish tax regime, incentives have been introduced to encourage biofuel trading. Law 38/1992, of December 28, on Special Taxes, (Ley 38/1992, de 28 diciembre, de Impuestos Especiales) imposes, until December 31, 2012, zero percent taxation for ethanol and biodiesel used as fuel. This incentive is no longer applicable Furthermore, article 51.3 of the Special Taxes Law exempts the importation of biofuel used in projects to develop clean products.

        Finally, Law 12/2007, of July 2, substantially modified the Hydrocarbon Sector Law, (Ley 34/1998, de 7 de octubre, del Sector de Hidrocarburos) in order to adapt it to the Directive 2003/55/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of June 26, 2003. Specifically, the Hydrocarbon Sector Law was modified by Law 12/2007 in several key areas:

    It clarifies the standard target by introducing the distinction between different biofuels and expanding the list of products that are considered biofuels;

    It confirms the reference to Title III of the Hydrocarbons Law to regulate the distribution and sale of these products;

    It sets out annual targets for biofuels and other trading renewable fuels for the period 2008-2010; and

    It enables the Minister of Industry, Tourism and Trade to pass any regulation promoting the incorporation of biofuels and other renewable fuels in order to achieve the annual objectives fixed.

        Order ITC/2877/2008 introduced the most significant changes in the fuel distribution automotive sector since the liberalization of the sector in 1999. Under article 6 of the Order, the Spanish Energy Commission is responsible for issuing certificates of biofuels and controls and supervises the compliance with the biofuel trading obligations. In this context, the Spanish Energy Commission issued Circular 2/2009, of February 26, which has been replaced by Circular 4/2012, of July 12 (Circular 4/2012, de 12 de julio, de la Comisión Nacional de Energía, por la que se regula la puesta en marcha de la gestión del mecanismo de fomento del uso de biocarburantes y otros combustibles renovables con fines de transporte) which defines the operation of the mechanism of certification of biofuels and other renewable fuels sold or consumed for transport purposes. Furthermore, in accordance with Article 11 of the Order ITC/2877/2008 the Spanish Energy Commission issued the Circular 1/2010, of March 25, which has been replaced by Circular 5/2012, of July 12 (Circular 5/2012, de 12 de julio, de la Comisión Nacional de Energía, por la que se regulan los procedimientos de constitución, gestión y reparto del fondo de pagos compensatorios del mecanismo de fomento del uso de biocarburantes y otros combustibles renovables con fines de transporte), which regulates the proceedings of the compensation payment fund for the mechanisms to promote the use of biofuels and other renewable fuels for transport.

        Royal Decree 459/2011, of April 11, establishes the new mandatory targets for biofuel use in Spain for 2011, 2012 and 2013. In particular, the mandatory targets established in the Royal Decree for biofuel content in fuel sold for transport purposes are the following: 6.2% for 2011, 6.5% for 2012 and 6.5% for 2013 for biofuels, and 6.0% for 2011, 7.0% for 2012 and 7.0% for 2013 for biodiesel.

        Order IET, 822/2012, of April 20, has established for two years, extendable for two additional years by a resolution of the Secretary of the Spanish Department of Energy, the assignment of biodiesel production output for the valuation of the compliance of biofuels mandatory goals, in favor of Spanish and European biodiesel plants to comply the biofuels mandatory targets set out in the Directive 2009/28/CE.

        Order IET/2199/2012, of October 9, postponed "sine die" the public tender for biodiesel production assignment established in Order IET/822/2012 due to the threat of an increase in the oil prices for final consumers. The publication of a new order is anticipated to take place in the first quarter of 2013.

        Order IET/2736/2012, of December 20 modified Order IET/822/2012, and introduced the following changes:

    1.
    It widens maximum annual target in 0.5 million tons.

    2.
    Legitimation to be an applicant is open to any production facility or unit, without any geographical restriction.

    3.
    Call for public tender must be made through resolution from the Secretary of State for Energy.

        Resolution 5 February, 2013 of the Secretary of State for Energy, called for a procedure for biodiesel production assignment.

        Royal Law Decree 4/2013 of February 22 (Real Decreto-Ley 4/2013 de 22 de febrero de medidas de apoyo al emprendedor y de estímulo del crecimiento y de la creación de empleo) includes in Article 41a lower biofuels targets 2013 on going (from 6.5% to 4.1%), of bioethanol in gasoline (froml 4.1% to 3.9%), and biodiesel to diesel (from 7% to 4.1%). Its Article 42 delays "sine die" sustainability request.

Water Regulatory Framework

        Spain is currently the only country within the European Union in which we operate our Water segment. The Spanish water regulatory framework, which primarily regulates the desalination process and the water concessions needed for the operation of our thermo-solar plants, is included in the Water Law as approved by Royal Legislative Decree 1/2001, of July 20 (the "Water Law"), and developed by the Royal Decree 849/1986, of April 11, which approves the regulation of public water.

        The Water Law regulates the use of hydraulic public property, in addition to authorizations and public concessions necessary in accordance with Law 22/1988, of July 28, on coasts, and other applicable regulations. The Water Law also regulates hydraulic infrastructures, which are defined as the construction of infrastructure for collection, extraction, desalination, storage, regulation, piping, control and use of water, including its drainage and purification, processing and reuse. In addition, Law 26/2007, of October 23, on environmental responsibility establishes a preventive and reparative administrative responsibility framework, applicable to water operators whose activities impact on the environment.

Solar Regulation

Overview

        The Kyoto Protocol was adopted on December 11, 1997 and introduced mandatory targets for participating countries to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases by at least 5% against 1990 levels in the five-year period between 2008 and 2012. The Kyoto Protocol came into effect on February 16, 2005. The European Commission announced in March 2007 new targets for reducing emissions of greenhouse gases among the EU Member States. These targets include a unilateral commitment to reduce overall EU greenhouse gas emission levels by 20% from 1990 levels by 2020. In addition, the European Commission made a conditional offer to increase this percentage reduction to 30% if other major emitting countries make a corresponding commitment to reduce emissions. The European Union and its Member States announced their willingness to continue negotiations to reach an international legally binding agreement to be in force starting on January 1, 2013, when the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol expires. In any case, the Kyoto Protocol has led to the implementation of policies and actions to promote and support the use of energy from renewable sources, which have been favorable to the renewable energy sector and, in particular, the solar energy sector.

        The renewable energy industry benefits from government subsidies and incentives in Spain, the United States and the other markets in which we operate. Internationally, the most common public incentives in the renewable energy sector include, among others, the following systems:

    Green certificates.  Producers of renewable energy receive a "green certificate" for each megawatt-hour they generate and suppliers of energy have an obligation to purchase part of the energy that they supply from renewable sources.

    Investment grants and direct subsidies.  These apply to the costs of installation of generating plants.

    Tax exemptions or relief.  These include Investment Tax Credits ("ITCs"), cash grants in lieu of tax credits, accelerated depreciation, among others, in the United States.

    System of direct support of prices.  These include regulated tariffs and premiums. The system previously in effect in Spain involved a regulatory guarantee to purchase the energy generated by a renewable energy plant for an allotted period of time at a fixed tariff per kilowatt-hour ("kWh") for a maximum annual number of hours, so that the producer was ensured of a reasonable return on its investment. This system will be totally replaced in the coming weeks in accordance with Royal Decree Law 9/2013.

Solar Regulatory Framework

        In Spain, the principal source of the regulation of electricity is the Law 54/1997 of November 27, Electricity Sector Act (the "Electricity Sector Act"), which was amended by, among others, Law 17/2007 of July 4, for the adoption of Directive 2003/54/EC of the European Parliament and Council of June 26, 2003. The goals of the Electricity Sector Act are to guarantee the supply of quality electricity at the lowest possible cost, liberalize the electricity market and promote renewable energy. To this end, the Electricity Sector Act included the obligation to establish a development plan for renewable energy to ensure that renewable energy sources provide at least 12% of Spain's total energy demand by 2010. In addition to highlighting the need for a special scheme to support generation of electricity from renewable energy sources, the Electricity Sector Act ordered the public authorities to take necessary measures to meet these objectives. This prompted the adoption by the Spanish government of the Renewable Energies Development Plan 2000-2010 ("REDP 2000-2010") in 1999.

        The REDP 2000-2010 sought to promote the construction of electricity generation facilities under the so-called Special Regime (as defined below) through various measures, including the establishment of incentives that would make it attractive to developers to build and operate these facilities. These incentives include the obligation to purchase electricity produced form renewable energy sources and the setting of purchase prices at a fixed tariff rate or at market price plus a premium. On August 26, 2005, the Spanish government updated REDP 2000-2010 through the Renewable Energies Plan 2005-2010 ("REP 2005-2010"). The main objective of REP 2005-2010 was to foster the development of the Special Regime more quickly than had been achieved under the REDP 2000-2010. REP 2005-2010 was focused mainly on fostering technologies such as mini-hydro, biomass and solar (where the pace development was clearly lower than that expected under the REDP 2000-2010). REP 2005-2010 also increased the targets of power generation from renewable energy sources and adjusted the tariff and premiums regime. REP 2005-2010 established the following non-binding objectives for 2010: 12.1% of primary energy consumption to be supplied by renewable energy; 30.3% of gross electricity consumption to be supplied with renewable energy sources; and, the consumption of biofuels to be 5.83% of the total consumption of petrol and diesel for transport.

        In order to comply with the mandatory renewable energy targets set out in the Directive 2009/28/EC ("2009 Renewable Energy") Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 23, 2009 on the Promotion of the Use of Energy from Renewable Sources, Spain, as well as other EU Member States, must develop a national action plan, called a National Renewable Energy Action Plan ("NREAP"). Spain's NREAP

258


Table of Contents

was issued on June 30, 2010 and sent to the European Commission. According to Spain's NREAP, the target of primary energy consumption to be supplied by renewable energy sources in 2020 is set at 22.7% and the target of gross electricity consumption to be supplied with renewable energy sources is set at 42.3%.

        In 2011, a new Renewable Energies Plan has been developed, REP 2011-2020 including new targets according to the 2009 Renewable Energy Directive with regard to the promotion of energy use from renewable sources, which states general targets of at least 20% of energy from renewable sources in gross final energy in the European Union and a minimum share of 10% of transport consumption to be supplied with renewable energy sources in each Member State by 2020.

        In Spain, the target means that renewable sources should represent at least 20% of the final energy consumption in 2020, the same target as for the EU, with a minimum contribution of 10% of renewable sources for transportation in that same year.

General legal framework for CSP plants under the Special Regime

        The Electricity Sector Act provides that generators of electricity can operate under one of the following two regimes: (i) the ordinary regime regulated mainly by the Electricity Sector Act, Royal Decree 2019/1997 and Royal Decree 1955/2000 (the "Ordinary Regime"); and (ii) the special regime regulated mainly by the Electricity Sector Act and the recently repealed Royal Decree 661/2007 of May 25, which is being applied temporarily until a new Royal Decree is issued in the coming weeks in accordance with Royal Decree Law 9/2013 (the "Special Regime"). Facilities eligible to benefit from the Special Regime are facilities that have installed capacity of 50 megawatts ("MW") or less and either: (i) use co-generation or other methods of electricity production associated with non-electrical activities and which involve high energy efficiency; (ii) use any of the qualifying renewable energy sources as primary energy, provided that the plant's owner does not perform generation activities under the Ordinary Regime; or (iii) use non-renewable waste as a primary energy source. Qualifying renewable energy sources include solar, wind, biomass, geothermal power, and biofuel.

        The concentrating solar power ("CSP") plants that we develop and operate fall within the Special Regime. The Special Regime was created with the objective of promoting environmentally efficient technologies and energy supply sources. In order to achieve this objective and foster the construction of facilities to this end, under the recently repealed Royal Decree 661/2007 the Special Regime granted two primary advantages to facilities built under this regime. First, for those qualifying facilities there was a regulatory purchase guarantee of the energy output produced (provided its delivery to the grid was technically feasible). Second, generators subject to the Special Regime sold the electricity generated at any of their facilities by using either of the following options:

    (i)
    Delivering their output to the electricity system through the power transmission or distribution grid, and in return receiving a regulated feed-in tariff expressed in euro cents per kilowatt-hour applicable for all scheduling periods. Pursuant to Royal Decree 661/2007, the energy so transferred was not acquired by the local distribution company, but instead supplied to the power transmission or distribution grid (the "Feed-in-Tariff Remuneration System"); or

    (ii)
    Selling electricity in the pool at the sale price set by the organized market or the price freely negotiated by the owner or representative of the facilities, supplemented, as the case may be, by a premium expressed in euro cents per kilowatt-hour (the "Market Remuneration System"). Under this alternative, participation in the market could be carried out through the pool, through the forward market (run by the Market Operator), or through executing bilateral contracts.

        As regards the Market Remuneration System, caps and floors were provided in respect of certain technologies (including CSP and wind power energy). This means that the total remuneration received by such facilities (i.e. the sum of the reference market price or the price freely negotiated, plus the corresponding premium) was subject to the applicable caps and floors.

259


Table of Contents

        In both cases, Special Regime generators were in effect participating in the wholesale energy market. In the Feed-in-Tariff Remuneration System the electricity supplied by the generation facilities was physically integrated in the pool (at zero price) and the generators were paid the marginal pool price (settled by the Market Operator) plus the difference up to the regulated feed-in tariff prices. Such difference (known as an "equivalent premium") was settled by the National Energy Commission (the "CNE"). In the Market Remuneration System, the electricity supplied by generation facilities was paid at the price agreed with the purchasers (either the marginal pool price or the physical bilateral contract price), but these generators were also be paid the premium to which they were entitled by the CNE.

        In addition, there were other sources of remuneration (the so-called "add-ons") that subsidized the income of the generation facilities under the Special Regime depending on the type of facility and the regime in which the facility fell (for example, the efficiency add-ons for co-generation facilities that satisfied performance requirements and the reactive energy add-ons for maintaining certain power factor values).

        Royal Decree Law 9/2013 completely overhauled this system and eliminated the feed-in tariff (see "—Royal Decree Law 9/2013").

Economic regime: Registration in public registers

        Royal Decree 661/2007 required that in order to benefit from the economic regime under the Special Regime (whether Feed-in-Tariff Remuneration System or Market Remuneration System), the generation facility had to obtain final registration at the Registro Administrativo de Instalaciónes de Producción en Regimen Especial ("RAIPRE") at both regional (i.e. Autonomous Community) level and at the national level following its construction and start-up. Registration occurred when the plant was finished and ready to operate. Following the completion of construction, the facility was granted the status as a Special Regime facility and it was be provisionally registered at the RAIPRE for a three-month period. During this period, the developer of the facility must apply for final registration (this provisional registration is only necessary when the owner of the facility intended to carry out trials prior to its definitive start-up). In order to be definitively registered in the RAIPRE, the developer had to provide, among other things: (i) the report from the grid operator or the manager of the distribution network, showing proper completion of the procedures for access and connection, and (ii) evidence of compliance with the requirements of Article 4 of Royal Decree 2019/1997. Once the facility had achieved final registration at the RAIPRE, the Regional Authorities had to communicate the registration within one month to the General Directorate of Energy Policy and Mines (Dirección General de Politica Energética y Minas) ("DGPEM"). Registration was overseen by the national authorities where the plant's power exceeded 50 MW, and by the Regional Authorities where lower. The registry was the same.

        As an additional requirement to benefit from the Special Regime, the Spanish government were launched a prior-registration requirement of allocation pursuant to which only those projects that were registered at the relevant Pre-Allocation Registry (as defined below) were entitled to receive the remuneration as Special Regime generation facilities.

        CSP projects.    Royal Decree Law 6/2009 required all projects under the Special Regime (except for PV projects, which were expressly excluded and governed by Royal Decree 1578/2008) to register at the Pre-Allocation Registry as an additional requirement in order to benefit from the Special Regime.

        As of the date of this prospectus, we have 650 MW/15 CSP projects duly registered at the RAIPRE and in commercial operation. Our PV projects in commercial operation are also duly registered under the Special Regime. Royal Decree 1614/2010, of December 7 (Royal Decree 1614/2010) introduced the concept of "equivalent working hours," which were defined as the total net output of a plant in any given year (expressed in kWh) divided by the plant's nominal capacity (expressed in kW). Royal Decree 1614/2010 sets a maximum number of equivalent working hours per year in respect of CSP plants that can benefit from the regulated tariff. Any electricity generated corresponding to the excess beyond such maximum number is be

260


Table of Contents

remunerated at the electricity "pool" market price. The maximum number of equivalent working hours per year depends upon the specific technology used by the CSP plant.

Royal Decree Law 1/2012

        Royal Decree Law 1/2012, of January 27, 2012 suspended registration of new renewable energy projects under special regime in the Pre-Allocation Registry established under RDL 6/2009. Further, it cancels the economic incentives for renewable projects established under Royal Decree 661/2007 for projects not duly registered in the Pre-Allocation Registry as of January 28, 2012.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Royal Decree Law 1/2012 does not affect the economic regime and incentives (consisting of feed-in tariff and pool plus premium schemes, as applicable) in respect to projects currently registered in the Pre-Allocation Registry.

Law 15/2012 on Tax Measures for Energy Sustainability

        On December 27, 2012, the Spanish Parliament approved Law 15/2012 which became effective on January 1, 2013 ("Law 15/2012"). The aim of Law 15/2012 is to try to combat the problem so-called "tariff deficit", which reached roughly €24 billion in December 2011 and increased during 2012.

        Law 15/2012 provides for an electricity sales tax which is levied on activities related to electricity production. The tax is triggered by the sale of the electrical power and affects both traditional electricity generation and electricity generated from renewable sources, known as "special regime" generation. The tax (at a single rate of 7%) is levied on the total income received from the power produced at each of the installations.

        Furthermore, Law 15/2012 provides for a tax trigger in the production and storage of nuclear energy waste, taxes on gas consumption for power generation (the so-called "green cent") and other measures.

        Finally, Law 15/2012 provides for certain amendments to the Electricity Sector Act. Under the current Special Regime power generation regulations of the Electricity Sector Act, up to 15% of the power produced by CSP installations can be generated by using natural gas; this means that the power produced by using natural gas as a source is not be entitled to a premium nor to feed-in tariff and will be paid at market price only. A ministerial order will further establish the technical rules for the calculation of the power attributable to natural gas use.

Royal Decree Law 2/2013

        Royal Decree Law 2/2013, of February 1, ("Royal Decree Law 2/2013") establishes two additional measures to cut the so-called "tariff deficit" of the Spanish electricity sector and to guarantee the financial viability of the electricity sector within the current financial crisis framework. Namely:

    The first measure cancels the premium established in electricity sector regulations for Special Regime installations that sell their energy produced to the market (i.e. those falling under option b) of article 24.1 of RD 661/2007). Therefore, it limits the remuneration schemes available for special regimen installations under Royal Decree 661/2007, which will only be entitled either to feed-in tariff or market price (therefore, they forego entitlement to additional premium when the power is paid at market price). This means in practice that all special regimen producers are forced to choose feed-in tariff as their remuneration scheme.

    The second measure establishes an annual indexation for reviewing all energy sector regulated costs, including special regime feed-in tariffs, by reference to a modified Consumer Price Index that excludes nonprocessed foods and energy products.

        The Spanish government adopted certain regulatory and tax measures, which were announced on July 12, 2013, to solve the so-called tariff deficit of the Spanish electricity sector and to guarantee the

261

financial viability of the electricity sector within the current financial crisis framework. It is foreseeable that these measures shall not be only limited to the electricity production under the special regime, but it would affect all producers under the different technologies, both the Special and Ordinary Regime, as well as transmission and distribution grid. Additionally, it is not likely in the short term that the suspension of the pre-allocation procedures will be revoked.

Royal Decree Law 9/2013

        Royal Decree-Law 9/2013, of July 12, on the adoption of urgent measures to guarantee the financial stability of the electric system, was published in the Spain's Official State Gazette on July 13, 2013, and entered into force on July 15, 2013 (hereinafter "RDL 9/2013").

        The purpose of RDL 9/2013 is to adopt a series of measures to ensure the sustainability of the electricity system and to combat the so-called "tariff deficit".

        The measures adopted therein are focused primarily on the following areas, among others: (i) the legal and financial regime for the existing electricity production facilities using renewable energy sources, cogeneration and residual waste; (ii) the remunerative regime for transport and distribution activities; (iii) the State's Guarantee of the Securitization Fund to cover the Deficit in the National Electricity Sector; and (iv) certain aspects related to payments for capacity, assumption of the cost of the social bond and review of the access tolls.

        By amending article 30.4 of the Spanish Electricity Sector, RDL 9/2013 abolishes the financial system based on a regulated tariff applicable to electricity production facilities using renewable energy sources (commonly referred to as "Special Regime installations"), even for power plants in operation at the time the RDL 9/2013 entered into force. RDL 9/2013 establishes a new remuneration system different from the current model (RDL 9/2013 repealed Royal Decree 661/2007). Unlike previous reforms, which tweaked the feed-in tariff scheme applicable in Spain since 2007, in this case the entire system of regulated revenues has been altered. The Government has elected to untie its aid from electricity output and to base payments on standard values of investment and operating and maintenance costs, the method for determining which is still not entirely known. The principle driving the new regulations is that the incentives that each kind of electricity producer receives should be equivalent to the costs that it cannot recover on the electricity market (competing with other technologies). This would enable a "well-run and efficient enterprise" to recover the costs of building and running a plant, plus a reasonable return on their investment. In the case of plants eligible for premiums when RDL 9/2013 entered into force, producers will now receive, together with the pool price for the energy produced, a payment tied to the standard investment and operating costs for the relevant kind of plant, and the revenue received in the market independently of the amount of energy they generated. This "payment for investment" (in €/MW of installed capacity) would be supplemented in the case of technologies with running costs in excess of the pool price with an "operating payment" (in €/MWh produced).

        The payment parameters may be reviewed every six years.

        According to the provisions of RDL 9/2013, the new remunerative regime enables the special regime installations to obtain reasonable profitability in relation to a standard facility applicable in each case. Reasonable profitability shall be calculated, before taxes, on the average yield of Spanish government 10-year bonds on the secondary market, applying the appropriate differential. Nevertheless, for those special regime installations that, on the date of entry into force of RDL 9/2013, were entitled to premium-based remuneration, reasonable profitability will be set, before tax, on the average yield of Spanish government 10-year bonds on the secondary market in the preceding 10 years plus 300 basis points, which in any event may be reviewed every six years.

        In accordance with the aim of the reform, RDL 9/2013 expressly repeals (i) article 4 of Royal Decree Law 6/2009, of April 30, on the adoption of certain measures in the energy sector and the social bond discount

262


Table of Contents

rate, (ii) Royal Decree 661/2007 and (iii) Royal Decree 1578/2008, of September 26, on the remuneration of production of electric energy by means of solar photovoltaic technology for installations completed after the deadline to take advantage of the remuneration regime set out in Royal Decree 661/2007 for said technology.

        The above-mentioned repealed legislation will continue to apply on a transitional basis until new provisions have been approved to fully implement RDL 9/2013. The new rules came into force on July 14, 2013 (when RDL 9/2013 came into force). Settlements after that date and until the new implementing regulations are adopted will be made in accordance with the previous regime (Royal Decree 661/2007). However, following the implementation of such new regulations, payments made during such period will be recalculated in accordance with the new regulations. The difference between the amounts received under the prior regime and those calculated under the new regime will be deducted from the first six settlements that follow the approval of the new implementing regulations.

        Additionally, any change arising from the regulations to be approved by the Spanish government within the frame of Royal Decree Law 9/2013 may have a material impact in the business, financial conditions or operating results of the activities of electric energy under the Special Regime and therefore, on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The effects that finally derive from this reform for electricity production facilities using renewable energy sources that are currently operating are still unclear and depend on the parameters that are established under the future regulations that will implement the provisions of RDL 9/2013. Therefore, to be able to fully quantify and assess the impact of the new regimen, we have to wait until such further regulations have entered into force.

Applicable tax regime: Special provisions

        Historically, the Spanish taxation framework has been very favorable for renewable energy but the existing tax benefits are beginning to be phased out. However, there is a trend that has seen increases in the tax benefits from research, development and technological innovation, as demonstrated by the recent legislative initiatives in this area, including:

    The income tax deduction for R&D&i for companies which was made permanent under Royal Decree 3/2009 of March 27.

    The introduction of various measures conducive to investment in R&D&i and investments related to the protection of the environment in the Law 2/2011, March 4, 2011 on Sustainable Economy Law, such as increasing the percentage of the deduction applicable to innovative activities from 8% to 12% within the ambit of the deduction for R&D&i.

    The introduction of a measure conductive to improve and facilitate the application and recovery of the R&D&i tax deduction in Law 14/2013 of September 27 to support entrepreneurs and their internationalization, by virtue of which, for fiscal years initiated as from January 1, 2013 and at the discretion of the tax payer, under certain circumstances, upon a 20% reduction of the R&D&i tax deduction, this deduction will not be subject to the ordinary limitations in the application of tax deductions and in case of lack of tax quota of the period in which to apply this tax deduction, it will be refundable in cash. The maximum R&D tax deduction either applicable or refundable is €3 million per year and €1 million for technological innovation.

Tax deductions for research, development and innovation

        The tax deduction for R&D&i is regulated in Article 35 of Legislative Royal Decree 4/2004 of March 5, approving the revised corporate income tax ("TRLIS"). For purposes of the deduction, the definitions of each of the concepts of research, development and technological innovation in Article 35 of the TRLIS are of significant importance, which differentiates between research and development and the concept of technological innovation. Article 35 of TRLIS states explicitly that certain specific activities are considered research and development for purposes of the deduction. Expenses relating to the qualifying R&D&i activities

263


Table of Contents

are entitled to a 25% deduction for the period in which they were incurred (or 42% for those expenses that exceed the average expenditure over the preceding two years for this purpose), provided that such expenses were incurred in accordance with cost accounting and were specifically undertaken in connection with identified projects. In addition, investments in tangible fixed assets and intangible assets made in connection with R&D&i are entitled to a deduction of 8% and an expenditure corresponding to qualified personnel exclusively engaged with the R&D&i is entitled to a deduction of 17%.

        Expenditures associated with technological innovation activities are entitled to a deduction of 8% for the period in which they were incurred (12% for fiscal periods commencing after the entry into force of Law 2/2011, March 4, 2011 on Sustainable Economy), provided that such expenses were incurred in accordance with cost accounting and were specifically undertaken in connection with identified projects. These deductions may be applied in assessments of tax periods that end in the 18 years subsequent to the tax period in which they were generated, provided that the other requirements of the corporate income tax regulations are complied with.

Tax deductions for environmental investments

        This deduction, which is regulated in Article 39 of the TRLIS, gives tax incentives for investments which seek to protect the environment. Such investments include investments in new assets that are intended for use in the active exploitation of renewable energy sources, including specifically the use of solar energy for conversion into heat or electricity. Such investments have historically been entitled to a deduction of 10%. However, Law 35/2006 gradually eliminates this deduction by reducing the percentage of deductions according to the schedule.

        Therefore, for fiscal years beginning after January 1, 2011, deductions for environmental investments will no longer apply. These deductions may be applied in the assessments of tax periods that end in the 15 years subsequent to the tax period in which they were generated, provided that the other requirements of the corporate income tax regulations are complied with.

        However, as from the entry into force of Law 2/2011, March 4, on Sustainable Economy, investments in tangible assets for the protection of the environment consisting of facilities to prevent air, noise or water pollution will be entitled to a deduction of 8%.

United States Regulations

        Our operations within the Biofuels segment of our Industrial Production activity and the Solar segment of our Concession-Type Infrastructures activity are subject to significant regulation in the United States.

Bioenergy Regulation

Federal Renewable Fuel Standard ("RFS")

        The Energy Policy Act of 2005 ("EPACT 2005") set the first United States renewable fuel volume mandate. The renewable fuel program established by the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") under EPACT 2005 required that 4 Bgal of renewable fuels be blended into gasoline for 2006, a volume mandate that increased to 7.5 Bgal for 2012. The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 ("EISA") modified and

264


Table of Contents

expanded the RFS in a number of respects: increased the renewable fuel volume mandate to 9 Bgal for 2012 and set increasing volume mandates through 2022, when the volume mandate will reach 36 Bgal of total renewable fuels. EISA also sets complementary annual volume mandates for "advanced biofuel" as well as two specific kinds of renewable fuels, cellulosic biofuel and biomass-based diesel. Of particular note, EISA defines advanced biofuel, cellulosic biofuel, and biomass-based diesel as having at least 50% less "lifecycle greenhouse gases ("GHG") emissions"—"the aggregate quantity of greenhouse gas emissions (including direct emissions and significant indirect emissions such as significant emissions from land use changes). . . related to the full fuel life cycle, including all stages of fuel and feedstock production and distribution. . . "—than the gasoline or diesel the renewable fuels are replacing. Specifically, EISA defines "advanced biofuel" as "renewable fuel, other than ethanol derived from corn starch that has life cycle greenhouse gas emissions. . . that are at least 50% less than baseline life cycle greenhouse gas emissions" as determined by EPA. EISA defines "cellulosic biofuel" as "renewable fuel derived from any cellulose, hemi-cellulose, or lignin that is derived from renewable biomass and that has life cycle gas emissions. . . that are at least 60% less than baseline life cycle greenhouse gas emissions" as determined by EPA." The EPA announced in May 2012 its determination that ethanol produced from grain sorghum (or milo) at facilities that use biogas digesters in combination heat and power technology meets the 50% GHG emissions reduction threshold requirement for an advanced biofuel. Further, EISA defines "biomass-based diesel" as renewable fuel defined as "biodiesel" under the Energy Policy Act of 1992 and which has life cycle GHG emissions which EPA determines to be at least 50% less than baseline lifecycle GHG emissions.

        In addition, EISA requires that any renewable fuel which is to be counted towards the RFS and is produced at a facility which commences construction after December 19, 2007, achieve at least a 20% reduction in life cycle GHG emissions compared to baseline life cycle GHG emissions. (This life cycle GHG emissions reduction requirement, coupled with EPA's inclusion in the implementing regulations of an analysis of indirect emissions from international land use changes related to biofuel production, may serve to exclude some biofuels from counting towards the RFS.) In May 2012, the EPA announced that ethanol produced from grain sorghum (or milo) at facilities that use natural gas meets the minimum 20% GHG emissions reduction threshold for renewable fuels. Under the Clean Air Act (the "CAA"), as amended by EISA and EPACT 2005, EPA possesses the authority to waive or adjust downward RFS requirements if the EPA Administrator, in consultation with the Secretary of Energy and the Secretary of Agriculture, determines that an RFS requirement or requirements would severely harm the economy or the environment, or if there is an inadequate domestic supply of a renewable fuel or fuels. The EPA is specifically required to review the availability of cellulosic biofuel and, if necessary, to downwardly adjust the annual volume mandate for cellulosic ethanol. After determining that limited production of cellulosic biofuel is occurring, EPA reduced the annual volume mandate for that fuel each of 2011 and 2012. However, EPA did not reduce or modify the advanced biofuel or total renewable fuel annual volume mandates. A number of lawsuits were filed challenging EPA's cellulosic biofuel and certain other mandates as being too high, and based upon those lawsuits, the 2011 and 2012 volumes for cellulosic biofuels were eliminated. The EPA Administrator also has authority under the CAA, in certain circumstances, to revise upwardly or downwardly the GHG reduction percentages required of renewable fuel, advanced biofuel, cellulosic biofuel, and/or biomass-based diesel.

        As implemented under EPA's March 2010 regulations, the RFS requires producers and importers of gasoline and diesel to meet the various volume mandates for total renewable fuel and the various renewable fuel types. Producers and importers of gasoline and diesel must purchase renewable fuel (or renewable fuel credits, called "renewable identification numbers") in an amount equal to or greater than a certain percentage, set by EPA, of their gasoline or diesel production and/or importation. EPA sets the percentages so that, if producers and importers produce and import gasoline and diesel in the volumes EPA projects, and if each producer and importer meets its obligations under the RPS, then total renewable fuel, advanced biofuel, cellulosic biofuel, and biomass-based diesel will be produced in the amounts required by EISA (or downwardly adjusted by EPA pursuant to its authority under EISA). Additionally, renewable fuel producers face recordkeeping and reporting obligations. The EPA has published proposed, but not final, renewable fuel standards for the year 2013.

Grants and Loan Guarantees from Department of Agriculture and Department of Energy

        The Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 ("Farm Bill") authorized a number of United States Department of Agriculture ("USDA") programs that promote the development and expansion of bio-energy production. The USDA Biorefinery Assistance Program under Farm Bill Section 9003 provides to eligible entities both grants to construct demonstration "advanced biofuel" refineries and loan guarantees for the development, construction, and retrofitting of commercial-scale bio-refineries that produce "advanced biofuels." As under the RFS, "advanced biofuel" is defined as fuel derived from renewable biomass other than corn kernel starch. Under Farm Bill Section 9003, loan guarantees are capped at $250 million and grant funding is capped at a percentage of the project cost. The USDA Bioenergy Program for Advanced Biofuels under Farm Bill Section 9005 provides payments to eligible producers of advanced biofuels to support expanded production. Payments are based on: the amount of funding available; the number of producers participating in the program; the amount of advanced biofuel being produced; the duration of production by the eligible producer; and, the net nonrenewable energy content of the advanced biofuel, if sufficient data is available. The bioenergy program for advanced biofuels will provide no more than 5% of total available funds to producers with an annual refining capacity of 150,000,000 gallons or more of advanced biofuel. Mandatory funding is available under both the Biorefinery Assistance Program and the Program for Advanced Biofuels through fiscal year 2012 but mandatory funding was not included for the year 2013. Legislation is currently being proposed that would extend the Farm Bill beyond its Sept 30, 2013, expiration date. The Biomass Research and Development Initiative, a collaboration of the USDA and the DOE created under Farm Bill Section 9008, provides grant funding and other financial assistance to eligible projects addressing the research, development, and demonstration of biofuels and bio-based projects and the methods, practices, and technologies for their production. The initiative is geared towards addressing three main areas: feedstock development, biofuels and bio-based products development, and biofuels development analysis. The USDA Repowering Assistance Program under Farm Bill Section 9004 provides payments to eligible bio-refineries to encourage the use of renewable biomass as a replacement fuel source for fossil fuels used to provide process heat or power in their operation.

        The USDA published in the Federal Register in April 2010 proposed rules implementing the Bioenergy Program for Advanced Biofuels (Farm Bill Section 9005) and Repowering Assistance Program (Farm Bill Section 9004) that would have served to exclude from the program most foreign entities, as well as subsidiaries of most foreign entities. USDA similarly published in the Federal Register in April 2010 a proposed rule implementing the Biorefinery Assistance Program (Farm Bill Section 9003) that would have made most foreign entities, as well as subsidiaries of most foreign entities, ineligible for loan guarantees from the program. Interim final rules published by the USDA in February 2011 eliminated the provisions limiting foreign entity participation in the three programs.

        The DOE, acting pursuant to Section 1705 of EPACT 2005 (as amended by the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act ("ARRA")), guaranteed loans to certain eligible projects, including "[l]eading edge biofuel projects that will use technologies performing at the pilot or demonstration scale that the Secretary determines are likely to become commercial technologies and will produce transportation fuels that substantially reduce life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions compared to other transportation fuels." In order to have qualified for a guarantee under the Section 1705 Program, physical construction must have commenced at the primary site of the project on or before September 30, 2011. National Environmental Policy Act ("NEPA") review must have been completed prior to the issuance of a loan guarantee. Loan guarantees under Section 1705 were limited to projects meeting the prevailing wage requirements set forth in the Davis-Bacon Act of 1931. The DOE loan guarantees were issued to bio-refineries located in Hugoton, Kansas (Abengoa) and Emmetsburg, Iowa. A number of industry associations representing bioenergy producers asked the government to make changes to the loan guarantee program, including stipulating that the existence of the RFS suffices to show that there is a reasonable prospect that advanced biofuel makers will be able to repay loans, extending the September 2011 construction commencement deadline, and carving out loan guarantee funds that would be dedicated to bio-energy projects.

266


Table of Contents

        The USDA's Business and Industry Loan Guarantee program and Rural Energy for America Program ("REAP") are other potential sources of loan guarantees or grant money for eligible bio-energy producers. Both EISA and the ARRA authorized the DOE to make grants related to biofuel. DOE in the past made a number of grants to fund biomass research and development. EPACT 2005 Section 932 authorized federal funding of eligible cellulosic bio-refinery demonstration projects. The USDA Biomass Crop Assistance Program provides eligible growers of renewable crops in certain areas with payments for growing the crops as well as payments to sellers of eligible biomass materials to qualified biomass conversion facilities. The USDA disburses value-added producer grants to incentivize eligible independent agricultural producers to engage in activities such as biofuels production.

        In December 2012, EPA approved a pathway to allow grain sorghum to be used as a feedstock for both conventional biofuels and for advanced biofuels under the RFS. Per the EPA analysis, sorghum based ethanol produced at dry mill facilities that use natural gas has a smaller GHG footprint than corn based ethanol (30% reduction compared to baseline gasoline versus 20% for corn). We have two plants that historically use 100% sorghum (Colwich and Portales), and we are looking at the feasibility of using sorghum in York and Ravenna. The ability to qualify as an Advanced Biofuel and help to fill that requirement (and to receive a higher value for that ethanol) is a great potential for Colwich especially.

Other Federal Programs and Requirements Impacting Bioenergy Producers

        A number of other programs and requirements exist to promote bio-energy production and development. The Energy Policy Act 1992 set a number of alternative fuel use and other requirements applicable to certain vehicles in federal and state government fleets. The Federal Highway Administration Surface Transportation Research, Development, and Deployment program provides some funding of bio-based research.

        EPA possesses authority under the CAA to regulate fuels and fuel additives, and EPA until October 13, 2010 limited gasoline composition to 10% ethanol for most vehicles. On October 13, 2010, EPA granted a partial waiver of its rule to allow for the sale of gasoline with up to 15% ethanol (E15) for use in light-duty motor vehicles from model year 2007 or newer. On January 21, 2011, EPA granted another partial waiver allowing the sale of E15 for use in light-duty motor vehicles from model years 2001- 2006. The CAA and EPA regulations require that manufacturers of gasoline and diesel fuels and fuel additives produced and commercially distributed for use in highway motor vehicles must register their gasoline and diesel fuels and fuel additives with EPA, and all individual fuel and fuel additive manufacturers involved in manufacturing E15 must register. On April 2, 2012, EPA approved the first E15 registration applications. The misfueling mitigation conditions of EPA's waiver must also be met before E15 can be lawfully sold. On June 15, 2012, EPA approved the first plans for satisfying the misfueling mitigation conditions of the E15 partial waivers, and some companies have now met all of the Clean Air Act requirements related to E15 and may lawfully introduce E15 into the marketplace. Since a number of states restrict the sale of some gasoline-ethanol blends, changes in state law may be needed before E15 may be sold in certain states and local requirements and practical concerns, such as dispenser and tank compatibility, may also need to be addressed. EPA also allows vehicle fuels to be sold containing higher levels of ethanol (such as E85, which is 85% ethanol), but these fuels are intended only to be used in vehicles certified as "flexible fuel."

        Ethanol imported into the United States faces an ad valorem tariff of 2.5%; a secondary tariff of $0.54/gallon expired on December 31, 2011.

State and Local Incentives for and Programs Concerning Bioenergy Production

        In addition to federal government support, many states have enacted laws or programs incentivizing or impacting bio-energy production. Programs and incentives come in the form of grants, loans, tax exemptions, job training programs, direct payments and mandates requiring the use of biofuels or low carbon fuels. For example, California implemented a low carbon fuel standard ("LCFS") that requires a 10% reduction in

267


Table of Contents

transportation fuel carbon intensity by 2020. California's LCFS is the subject of litigation and was enjoined from December 2011 to April 2012. The litigation continues, but the injuction preventing California from enforcing the LCFS has been removed.

        In Kansas, a newly constructed biomass-to-energy facility is exempted from state property taxes for up to 10 taxable years immediately following the taxable year in which construction or installation is completed. To fall within the exemption, we would need to establish that the plant meets the definition of a biomass-to-energy facility, which requires the use of biomass to produce at least 500,000 gallons of cellulosic alcohol fuel, liquid or gaseous fuel, or other sources of energy in a quantity with energy content at least equal to that of 500,000 gallons of cellulosic alcohol fuel. The Kansas Development Finance Authority may also issue revenue bonds to cover the costs of construction or expansion of a biomass-to-energy facility. An upcoming legislative initiative known as the Master Limited Partnerships (MLP) Parity Act would allow renewable energy project developers looking for private investment funding to benefit from the same opportunities enjoyed by oil, natural gas, coal extraction and pipeline developers. Such projects can frequently access more liquid capital at a lower cost.

Environmental Permitting and Compliance

        Bio-energy facilities face numerous potential permitting, licensing, and land use requirements and are subject to various federal, state, and local environmental laws, including laws governing: the discharge of materials into the air, water, and ground; the use, handling, storage, generation, transportation and disposal of hazardous materials, access to and use of water resources; and, employee health and safety. These environmental laws can require the installation of pollution control equipment or operational changes for the purpose of limiting potential or actual environmental impacts. Violations of these laws or permit conditions may result in significant fines, the revocation of permits (including the potential for facility shutdown), criminal sanctions, and/or natural resources damage claims. Prior to development, permitting authorities may require that bio-energy projects consider and address, among other things, the impact on water resources and water quality, endangered species and other biological resources, existing land uses and zoning, agricultural resources, archaeological, paleontological, recreational and cultural considerations, and the impact on the landscape. Project approvals may be conditioned upon the project being modified, including to involve mitigation measures.

        Potentially applicable federal permits might be required under the CAA, the Endangered Species Act ("ESA"), the Clean Water Act ("CWA"), the National Historic Preservation Act, and the National Wilderness Preservation Act, among other federal laws. Depending upon a number of factors (including facility location and potential to emit), the CAA may require bioenergy facilities to obtain preconstruction and operating permits, model potential emission impacts, install control technology to mitigate emission impacts, and purchase offsets to cover remaining emission impacts. In many instances, EPA has delegated its CAA authority to state or local authorities, who are then primarily responsible for issuing air emission permits. Some bioenergy facilities emit various pollutants regulated under the CAA, including volatile organic compounds ("VOCs"), oxides of nitrogen ("NOx"), carbon dioxide ("CO2"), particulate matter ("PM") and hazardous air pollutants ("HAPs"). A number of CAA standards, are potentially applicable to a facility if it exceeds certain emission thresholds (such as for pollutants regulated as "hazardous") or contains certain pieces of equipment (such as boilers, heaters, or liquid storage tanks of a certain size). EPA has recently taken steps to regulate GHG emissions under the CAA. As such, bioenergy facility operation or expansion may face regulatory requirements relating to GHG emissions reporting and reduction. The ESA is intended to protect endangered species by prohibiting the take of listed animals without a permit. The ESA makes it unlawful to harm a listed animal either directly or by significantly modifying its habitat in a way that interferes with the animal's breeding, feeding, or sheltering patterns. The CWA makes it unlawful to fill wetlands or other waters without a permit, or to make point source discharges into navigable waters or their tributaries without a permit. The Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act and Sections 112(r)(1) and 112(r)(7) of the CAA may impose certain risk management planning, inventory reporting, release reporting, and other requirements

268


Table of Contents

upon biofuel facilities storing substances regulated under these acts in excess of certain quantities. Permits from other federal agencies may be required if federal lands, federally regulated natural resources, military zones, or other areas of federal competence are involved or may be impacted by the construction or operation of a renewable energy facility. The Comprehensive Environmental, Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 may subject bioenergy producers who arrange for the disposal of hazardous wastes to investigation or clean-up costs related to disposal sites.

        Projects involving discretionary federal action must normally comply with NEPA, which requires assessment of the project's environmental impacts and includes public review and involvement. If a project does not fall under a categorical exclusion or exemption, then an environmental assessment ("EA") or an environmental impact statement ("EIS") must be prepared. An EA is the less rigorous assessment, can take approximately six months to complete, and will result in either a "finding of no significant impact" ("FONSI") or a finding that significant impacts are likely. If a FONSI is issued, NEPA review is complete. If, on the other hand, the EA finds significant impacts to be likely, an EIS must be prepared (which can take a year or longer) describing the environmental impact of the project and possible alternatives.

        Various states have also implemented environmental laws and regulations that impact renewable energy projects. State or local approvals might be needed: to obtain air emission permits; to address impacts upon historic resources, state endangered species act considerations, considerations under state corollaries to the CWA, traffic, GHG emissions, or urban encroachment; to remove agricultural preservation restrictions; for wastewater and storm water discharges, water rights permits, water supply assessments, lake and streambed alterations, a utility license, or various land use approvals, among other reasons. As one example, California released in November 2011 air quality guidance addressing stationary and mobile source emissions associated with bio-refineries that could result in stricter air pollution control requirements than have previously been imposed. Certain state environmental laws require the preparation of an environmental impact report similar to the federal impact statement, while some states require a meeting to be held to solicit comments from affected local landowners and local authorities.

        Litigation or third party appeals challenging or seeking to delay permits for bio-energy facilities could delay or prevent the construction or operation of these facilities.

Federal Tax Incentives

        The federal tax credits available to producers of biofuel vary according to the type of biofuel produced and the feedstock used to produce that fuel. Producers of blended fuel mixtures were eligible for an excise or income tax credit of $.45 per gallon of ethanol (regardless of feedstock) that was blended with gasoline and sold or used as fuel in a trade or business, but these credits expired on December 31, 2011. Producers of cellulosic biofuel, such as ethanol produced from wood chips and plant wastes, currently are eligible for a maximum $1.01 per gallon tax credit, which is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2013. Blenders of biodiesel and renewable diesel fuel are also eligible for a tax credit of $1.00 per gallon blended into motor fuels and these credits are scheduled to expire on December 31, 2013.

        In addition, under the same program as that applicable to solar energy property, an owner of eligible bioenergy property may be eligible to apply for a cash payment from the United States Department of the Treasury in the amount of a one-time federal income investment tax credit equal to 30% of the tax basis of the eligible property if construction began in 2009, 2010 or 2011 and the property is placed in service before January 1, 2017. See "—Solar Regulation—Cash Grant in Lieu of ITC."

Accelerated Depreciation

        Owners of eligible biofuel property may also benefit from accelerated depreciation of the property over a five-year period under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System ("MACRS") under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In addition, some property used in biofuel projects may qualify for bonus depreciation for equipment placed in service before January 1, 2014. Under the same statute a deduction of 50% of the cost of qualifying property is permitted in the first year for property placed in service in 2012 and 2013. Bonus depreciation under this statute expires on December 31, 2013.

Solar Regulation

        Federal, state and local energy laws and regulations apply to the development, ownership, business organization and operation of power generation facilities in the United States. The United States federal government regulates the sale of electricity at wholesale and certain environmental matters, and state and local governments regulate the construction of power generation facilities, the sale of electricity at retail, and certain other environmental and permitting matters.

United States Federal Regulation of the Electricity Industry

        The United States federal government regulates the wholesale sale of electric power and the transmission of electricity in interstate commerce through the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC"), which draws its jurisdiction from the Federal Power Act ("FPA"), as amended, and from other federal legislation such as the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 ("PURPA"), the Energy Policy Act of 1992 ("EPACT 1992") and the EPACT 2005. EPACT 2005 repealed the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 and replaced it with the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005 ("PUHCA").

    Regulation of Electricity Generators

        The FPA provides FERC with exclusive ratemaking jurisdiction over all "public utilities" that engage in wholesale sales of electricity and/or the transmission of electricity in interstate commerce. The owners of renewable energy facilities are therefore generally subject to FERC's ratemaking jurisdiction. FERC may authorize a public utility to make wholesale sales of electric energy and related products at negotiated or "market-based" rates if the public utility can demonstrate that it does not have, or that it has adequately mitigated, horizontal and vertical market power and that it cannot otherwise erect barriers to market entry. Entities granted market-based rate approval face ongoing filing and compliance requirements. In granting market- based rate approval to a wholesale generator, FERC also typically grants blanket authorizations under Section 204 of the FPA and FERC's regulations for the issuance of securities and the assumption of debt liabilities.

        If the criteria for market-based rate authority are not met, FERC has the authority to impose conditions on the exercise of market rate authority that are designed to mitigate market power or to withhold or rescind market-based rate authority altogether and require sales to be made based on cost-of-service rates, which could in either case result in a reduction in rates. FERC also has the authority to assess substantial civil penalties (up to $1 million per day per violation) for failure to comply with tariff provisions or the requirements of the FPA.

        FERC approval under the FPA may be required prior to a change in ownership or control of a 10% or greater voting interest, directly or through one or more subsidiaries, in any public utility (including one of our U.S. project companies) or any public utility assets. FERC approval may also be required for a public utility to have common officers or directors with certain affiliates.

        FERC also implements the requirements of PUHCA applicable to "holding companies" having direct or indirect interests of 10% or more in companies that (among other activities) own or operate facilities used for the generation of electricity for sale, which includes renewable energy facilities. PUHCA imposes certain record-keeping, reporting and accounting obligations on such holding companies and certain of their affiliates. However, holding companies that own only exempt wholesale generators ("EWGs"), foreign utility companies, and certain qualifying facilities under PURPA are exempt from the federal access to books and records provisions of PUHCA. EWGs are owners or operators of electric generation facilities (including producers of renewable energy, such as solar projects) that are engaged exclusively in the business of owning and/or operating generating facilities and selling electricity at wholesale. An EWG cannot make retail sales of electricity, may only own or operate the limited interconnection facilities necessary to connect its generating facility to the grid, and faces restrictions in transacting business with affiliated regulated utilities.

Regulation of Electricity Sales

        Electricity transactions in the United States may be bilateral in nature, whereby two parties contract for the sale and purchase of electricity subject to various governmental approval processes or guidelines that may apply to the contract, or they may take place within a single, centralized clearing market for purchases and sales of energy, electric generating capacity and ancillary services. Given the limited interconnections between power transmission systems in the United States and differences among market rules, regional markets have formed as part of the power transmission systems operated by regional transmission organizations (known as "RTOs" or independent system operators ("ISOs")) in places such as California, the Midwest, New York, Texas, the Mid-Atlantic region and New England.

Reliability Standards

        EPACT 2005 amended the FPA to grant FERC jurisdiction over all users, owners, and operators of the bulk power system for the purpose of enforcing compliance with certain standards for the reliable operation of the bulk power system. Pursuant to its authority under the FPA, FERC certified the North American Electric Reliability Corporation ("NERC") as the entity responsible for developing reliability standards, submitting them to FERC for approval, and overseeing and enforcing compliance with them, subject to FERC review. NERC, in turn, has delegated certain monitoring and enforcement powers to regional reliability organizations. Users, owners, and operators of the bulk power system meeting certain materiality thresholds are required to register with the NERC compliance registry and comply with FERC-approved reliability standards.

State Regulation of the Electricity Industry in the United States

        State regulatory agencies in the United States have jurisdiction over the rates and terms of electricity service to retail customers. Regulated investor-owned utilities often must obtain state approval for the contracts through which they purchase electricity, including renewable energy, if they seek to pass along the costs of these contracts to their ratepayers. Different states apply different standards for determining acceptable prices for utility procurement contracts, including contracts for the purchase of renewable energy. In some states, electricity generation is deregulated and electricity supply is provided by retail or wholesale third party suppliers, as determined in that states' regulatory scheme. Several states hold auctions for the wholesale supply of power to be sold through utilities to retail customers that do not choose a third party competitive electric supplier.

        In certain states, approval of the construction of new power generation facilities, including solar power plants, is obtained from a state agency, with only limited regulatory approvals required from other state agencies and local governments. However, in many states the permitting process for power plants, including solar power plants, is also subject to land-use and similar regulations established at the county and municipal government level. In other cases, state and local authorizations may involve a more extensive approval process, possibly including an environmental impact evaluation and opposition by interested parties or utilities.

Renewable Energy Incentives in the United States

        In general, the United States has used a mix of tax incentives, at the federal level, and mandatory quotas and portfolio standards, at the level of individual states, to incentivize investment in renewable energy generation capacity, including solar power. Each of these types of U.S. renewable energy incentives are discussed below.

    Investment Tax Credit

        Owners of eligible solar energy property (which includes most kinds of solar energy generation equipment) that is placed in service before January 1, 2017 generally may claim a one-time federal income

271


Table of Contents

investment tax credit ("ITC") equal to 30% of the tax basis of the eligible property. An owner of eligible solar energy property who claims the ITC must reduce the tax basis of the eligible property by an amount equal to one half of the credit. The ITC is subject to recapture (in declining amounts) if the owner sells or ceases use of the property during the five-year period following the placed-in-service date. Once the 30% ITC expires at the end of 2016, the permanent 10% ITC shall remain in effect.

    Cash Grant in Lieu of ITC

        In lieu of claiming the ITC, an owner of eligible solar energy property may be eligible to apply for a cash payment from the United States Department of the Treasury equal to the amount of the ITC it otherwise would be eligible to claim. Eligible solar energy property will qualify for the cash grant if its owner is not a "disqualified person" and it is the case that either: (1) the eligible property is placed in service in 2009, 2010 or 2011; or (2) construction of the eligible property begins in 2009, 2010 or 2011 and the property is placed in service before January 1, 2017. "Disqualified persons" include governments, tax-exempt organizations, tax-exempt energy cooperatives and partnerships and other pass-through entities any partner (or other holder of an equity or profits interest) of which is a government, tax-exempt organization or tax-exempt energy cooperative unless their interest is held through a taxable corporation. A non-U.S. person or entity (including a non-U.S. government) will be considered a disqualified person unless 50% or more of the gross income derived from the eligible property would be subject to U.S. tax. Grants paid are subject to recapture if the property becomes disqualified (as a result of either change in use or change in ownership) during the five-year period following the placed-in-service date. Grant recipients are required to reduce the tax basis of the eligible solar energy property in the same manner and amount as if they were claiming the ITC. Unless DOT concludes differently based on its own cost basis evaluation for eligible costs and in such case grant recipients must adjust the tax basis accordingly.

        Due to the failure of the U.S. Congress to enact a plan by February 28, 2013 to reduce the federal budget deficit by $1.2 trillion, and in accordance with the Budget Control Act of 2011, President Obama on March 1, 2013 issued an order imposing $85 billion of automatic federal budget cuts, known as "sequestration," across all agencies of the Federal government for the remainder of the Federal fiscal year ending September 30, 2013. Payments issued under Section 1603 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Tax Act of 2009 for specified energy property in lieu of tax credits are subject to sequestration. Accordingly, every award of a grant under the U.S. Treasury's Section 1603 program made to an applicant on or after March 1, 2013 through September 30, 2013, regardless of when the application was received by the U.S. Treasury, will be reduced by the percentage required to comply with President Obama's sequestration order. On March 5, 2013, the U.S. Treasury issued a communication that it is implementing a reduction to all awards under its Section 1603 program for the remainder of Federal fiscal year 2013 in the amount of 8.7%, implying a cut of $319 million. The U.S. Treasury did not indicate whether the 8.7% sequestration rate it announced supersedes the 5.1% sequestration rate set forth in OMB's earlier sequestration report. Furthermore, it is not possible to predict at this time whether the Congress will enact a plan before September 30, 2013 to reduce the federal budget deficit by $1.2 trillion. If it does not, President Obama will be required to order sequestration for Federal fiscal year 2014 and the sequestration rate applicable to the U.S. Treasury's Section 1603 program may change. On April 10, 2013, the OMB issued a sequestration preview report to President Obama and Congress in which the budget account funding for the Section 1603 program in 2014 is reduced by 7.3%. A final report will be issued prior to 2014.

    Accelerated Depreciation

        Owners of eligible solar energy property also benefit from accelerated depreciation of the property over a five-year period under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System ("MACRS") under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Most of the equipment used in CSP and PV projects qualifies for five-year depreciation under MACRS. In addition, some equipment used in CSP and PV projects may qualify for bonus depreciation for equipment placed in service. For property placed in service from September 8,

272


Table of Contents

2010 through December 31, 2011, the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization and Job Creation Act of 2010 allowed first year depreciation to equal 100% of the cost of qualifying property. Under the same statute, a deduction of 50% of the cost of qualifying property is permitted in the first year for property placed in service in 2012 and 2013. Bonus depreciation under this statute expires on December 31, 2013.

    Loan Guarantee Program

        The DOE, in an effort to promote the rapid deployment of renewable energy and electric power transmission projects, is authorized to grant guarantees with respect to certain loans to renewable energy projects and related manufacturing facilities and electric power transmission projects under Sections 1703 and 1705 of the EPACT 2005. The ARRA amended the EPACT 2005 to include Section 1705. In order to have qualified for the Section 1705 Program, physical construction must have commenced at the primary site of the project on or before September 30, 2011. NEPA review must have been completed prior to the issuance of a loan guarantee. In May 2011, the Section 1705 Program expired by statute, and DOE announced that it would no longer accept new applications under that program. On September 30, 2011 the Section 1705 loan guarantee program closed with no further loan guarantees to be issued.

        Loan guarantees under Section 1703 continue to be available for solar. However, eligibility is limited. The applicant must be located in the United States and may include foreign ownership so long as the project is located in one of the fifty states, the District of Columbia or a U.S. territory. The project must employ a new or significantly improved technology that is not a commercial technology. A commercial technology is defined as in general use in the commercial marketplace in the United States at the time the term sheet is issued by the Department of Energy. A technology is considered to be in commercial use if it has been installed in and is being used in three or more commercial projects in the United States and has been in operation in each such commercial project for at least five years. The project must also pay prevailing wages under the Davis-Bacon Act.

    DOE Research Grants, State Energy Funding, Workforce Training, and Other Initiatives under the ARRA

        The DOE received funding under the ARRA which it has disbursed or is in the process of disbursing to increase solar power production. Some funds were allocated as grants to support research, development, demonstration, and deployment projects. Funds were awarded to states on the basis of their electric consumption to fund energy efficiency, renewable energy, and other energy programs. ARRA funds were allocated with the purpose of providing workforce training with respect to renewable energy and energy efficiency. A number of initiatives were funded by the DOE with ARRA monies, including initiatives addressing solar market transformation, the integration of PV generation into the distribution system, and base load CSP generation.

    U.S. State-Level Incentives

        In addition to federal legislation, many states have enacted legislation, principally in the form of renewable portfolio standards ("RPS"), which generally require electric utilities to generate or purchase a certain percentage of their electricity supplied to consumers from renewable resources. In certain states it is not only mandatory to meet these percentages from renewable resources, which in general are on the increase, but also electric utilities may be required to generate or purchase a percentage of their electricity supplied to consumers from specific renewable energy technologies, including solar technology. Depending upon the state, various certifications, permits, contracts and approvals may be required in order for a project to qualify for particular RPS programs. Some states, for example, require that only renewable energy generated in-state counts towards the RPS. According to the Database of State Incentives for Renewable Energy, as of December 2012, 29 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Northern Mariana Islands have implemented an RPS, and eight states, Guam and the United States Virgin Islands have set

273


Table of Contents

voluntary renewable energy generation goals. Although there is currently no federal RPS program, there have been proposals to create a federal RPS standard for renewable energy.

        Renewable Energy Certificates ("RECs") are typically used in conjunction with RPS programs as tradable certificates demonstrating that a certain number of kWh have been generated from renewable resources. Under many RPS programs, a utility may generally demonstrate, through its ownership of RECs, that it has supported an amount of renewable energy generation equal to its state-mandated RPS percentage. The sale of RECs can represent a significant additional revenue stream for renewable energy generators. In RPS states where a liquid REC market does not exist, renewable energy can be bought or sold through "bundled" power purchase agreements, where the power purchase agreement price includes the price for renewable energy attributes. Some states require that RECs and the associated electricity be purchased together in order to count towards the RPS. In states that do not have RPS requirements, certain entities buy RECs voluntarily. These RECs generally have lower prices than RECs that are used to meet RPS obligations. The price of RECs can vary significantly, depending on their availability, which is turn depends upon the amount of renewable generation that has been put in service in a state that has implemented RPS requirements. In some states, the number of successful projects has generated more RECs than required to meet the applicable RPS requirements for a given year or years, leading to steep drops in the market price for RECs. Additionally, demand for RECs can be driven by requirements (such as those imposed under the California Environmental Quality Act) that development projects mitigate potential significant GHG impacts identified in connection with environmental clearances.

        Effective December 10, 2011, California enacted legislation that increases its existing RPS to 25% by 2016 and 33% by 2020, and expands the program to cover publicly-owned utilities, in addition to investor-owned utilities ("IOUs"). In addition, the California Solar Initiative ("CSI") sets a goal of 1,940 MW of solar capacity by the end of 2016. The CSI provides monetary incentives for solar installation between 1 kW and 5 MW in size as well as grants for research, development, and demonstration. California's feed-in-tariff program obligates IOUs to purchase solar generation at a standard price until a purchase threshold is crossed. Colorado set an RPS of 30% by 2020 for IOUs, permits the trading of RECs, and requires that 3% of the RPS be met by distributed generation in 2020 for IOUs. Arizona set an RPS of 15% by 2025, with 30% of the RPS to be met from distributed generation. A Texas law signed in August 2005 requires that 5,880 MW of new renewable generation be built by 2015. The law also set a target of having 10,000 MW of renewable generation capacity by 2025. Additionally, Texas law establishes a minimum of 500 MW of non-wind renewable generation, and doubles the RPS compliance value provided by non-wind generation.

        Other incentives that states and localities have adopted to encourage the development of renewable resources include property and state tax exemptions and abatements, state grants, and rebate programs. In addition, a number of states collect electricity surcharges on residential and commercial users and through public benefit funds reinvest some of these funds in renewable energy projects. California offers a property tax incentive for certain solar energy system installed between January 1, 1999 and December 31, 2016. The Arizona Department of Revenue provides a corporate tax credit based on production for solar, wind, or biomass systems that are 5 MW or larger and are installed on or after December 31, 2010 and before January 1, 2021.

        Solar generation may also be incentivized by state GHG emission reduction measures, such as California's cap and trade scheme, which is set to cap and reduce GHG emissions from the electricity and other sectors starting in 2013.

Environmental Permitting and Compliance

        Construction and operation of solar power plants and the generation and power transmission of renewable energy is subject to environmental regulation by United States federal, state and local authorities. Typically, environmental laws and regulations require a lengthy and complex process for obtaining licenses, permits and approvals prior to construction, operation or modification of a generation project or power

274

transmission facilities. Prior to development, permitting authorities may require that project developers consider and address, among other things, the impact on water resources and water quality, endangered species and other biological resources, existing land uses and zoning, agricultural resources, archaeological, paleontological, recreational and cultural considerations, and impact on landscape. Potentially applicable federal permits might be required under NEPA, the ESA, CWA, the National Historic Preservation Act, and the National Wilderness Preservation Act, among other federal laws. The Federal Land Policy and Management Act ("FLPMA") provides the Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") with discretion to provide rights-of-way for power plants and electric power transmission facilities on federal lands, and BLM has developed detailed regulations for the management of its lands. Additional approvals would be needed if projects or power transmission lines were to be located on Forest Service or tribal lands. Project approvals may be conditioned upon the project being modified, including to involve mitigation measures.

        A project that is located on federal land (as well as other projects involving federal agency action) must comply with NEPA, which requires assessment of the project's environmental impacts and includes public review and involvement. If a project does not fall under a categorical exclusion or exemption, then an EA or an EIS must be prepared. An EA is the less rigorous assessment, can take approximately six months to complete, and will result in either a FONSI or a finding that significant impacts are likely. If a FONSI is issued, NEPA review is complete. If, on the other hand, the EA finds significant impacts to be likely, an EIS must be prepared (which can take a year or longer) describing the environmental impact of the project and possible alternatives. The DOE and the BLM are jointly preparing a solar energy programmatic environmental impact statement ("Solar PEIS") in order to facilitate the permitting and sponsoring of large scale solar electric power plants on public lands in the Western United States. The DOE and BLM released a draft Solar PEIS in December 2010, a supplement to the draft Solar PEIS on October 27, 2011, the final Solar PEIS on July 24, 2012 and the Record of Decision for the Solar PEIS on October 12, 2012. The Solar PEIS is intended to serve as a roadmap for solar energy development by establishing solar energy zones., totaling about 285,000 acres of public lands, characterized by significant solar resources, good energy transmission potential, and relatively low conflict with biological, cultural and historic resources. Within these zones, the Solar PEIS has the goal of providing incentives for development, including faster and simpler permitting, improved mitigation strategies, and other economic incentives.

        On October 12, 2012, the Secretary of the Interior signed the Record of Decision to establish a comprehensive Solar Energy Program to administer the development of utility-scale solar resources on BLM-administered public lands in six southwestern states. The Solar Energy Program decisions will guide the processing of all new utility-scale solar energy applications on BLM-administered lands. The BLM's Solar Energy Program would only apply to projects capable of generating 20 MW or more. Decisions on projects that are on non BLM-administered land and on projects capable of generating less than 20 MW will be made in accordance with existing land use requirements, current applicable policy, and individual site-specific NEPA analyses.

        Permits from other federal agencies may be required if federal lands, federally regulated natural resources, endangered species, military zones, or other areas of federal competence are involved or may be impacted by the construction or operation of a renewable energy facility. The ESA is intended to protect endangered species by prohibiting the take of listed animals without a permit. The ESA makes it unlawful to harm a listed animal either directly or by significantly modifying its habitat in a way that interferes with the animal's breeding, feeding, or sheltering patterns. The CWA makes it unlawful to fill wetlands or other waters without a permit, or to make point source discharges into navigable waters or their tributaries without a permit.

        Various states have also implemented environmental laws and regulations that impact renewable energy projects. State or local approvals might be needed to obtain air emission permits, to address impacts upon historic resources, to remove agricultural preservation restrictions, to address state endangered species act considerations, for wastewater and storm water discharges, for water rights permits, a utility license, or various land use approvals, among other reasons. Certain state environmental laws require the preparation of

275


Table of Contents

an environmental impact report similar to the federal impact statement, while some states require a meeting to be held to solicit comments from affected local landowners and local authorities. Utility scale solar power plant technologies require access to water resources, potentially triggering permitting scrutiny (as well as necessitating the navigation of water rights regulations that vary from state to state).

        Litigation or third party appeals challenging or seeking to delay permits for renewable energy facilities and associated power transmission infrastructure could delay or prevent the construction or operation of renewable energy facilities and result in financial penalties for failure to complete or operate the facilities.

        The California Energy Commission, the California Department of Fish and Game, the BLM and United States Fish and Wildlife Service are working to develop a streamlined permitting process for renewable generation facilities including a plan for the development of solar generation and the protection of environmental resources in the Mojave and Colorado deserts. These agencies are drafting the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan ("DRECP") to address how entities with jurisdiction over renewable energy and transmission projects and related facilities in the desert of California should conserve natural communities and species pursuant to the California Natural Community Conservation Planning Act (NCCP Act), the ESA, and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act ("FLPMA") while also facilitating the permitting of renewable energy projects in accordance with California's RPS and the federal government's goal of increasing renewable energy generation on public land. The agencies are preparing a joint EIR/EIS for the DRECP and for a possible amendment to the California Desert Conservation Area (CDCA) Plan of 1980, as amended, and released a scoping report for the EIR/EIS in December 2011.

Regulation of Solar Storage

        Solar storage is a nascent industry in the United States. Energy storage solutions are being explored for solar and other renewable and distributed generation of electricity, and some support has been available from the federal government from agencies such as the Department of Energy, in the form of grants and loans. Additional support or encouragement can be found in a number of states. However, no concerted legal or regulatory effort has been made to develop a framework that would make energy storage an attractive alternative for the supply of electricity to end users of power. To date, energy storage has been considered to be generally too expensive to be viable for the supply of electricity.

        Several issues have stood in the way. There is no federal energy policy that supports a national renewable portfolio standard. Further, the existing system of ISOs and RTOs that manage the bulk transmission grids and wholesale markets for pricing electricity frequently establish low prices for electricity sold in off hours, making it difficult to retrieve the cost of stored power sold into the grid at that time. At present, most states do not have regulations that specifically address issues related to stored power, including interconnection to the grid, nor does the federal government. However, as stored electricity becomes more common some such regulation is likely. The FERC issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in June 2012 in Docket Nos. RM11-24-000 and AD10-13-000 seeking comments on proposed regulations that, if adopted, will inter alia impact the accounting for energy storage technologies. The California Public Utilities Commission ("CPUC") initiated a docket to review issues related to energy storage and develop regulations. CPUC Energy Storage Proceeding R.10-12-007. In December 2012, the CPUC staff issued a report deferring energy procurement policy recommendations related to storage. The lack of defined regulation creates uncertainty. In addition, whether power that is stored and later injected into the grid will qualify for RPS programs and how the amount that is eligible for RECs will be computed is unknown. For example, it is uncertain whether RECs will apply to the amount of power generated by the renewable generation or to the amount taken from storage after line losses.

The Governmental Policy and Legislative Framework for the Electricity Sector

        The electricity sector has undergone two major institutional reforms: the first in the 1990s and another in 2003, which aimed at modifying the rules applying to the National Interconnected System ("SIN") and resulted in its current form. The first change in the sector occurred after the enactment of Law No. 8,987 of 1995, as amended, which established the system for the concessions and permissions for rendering public services (the "Concessions' General Act"), and with the enactment of Law No. 9,074 of 1995 as amended, which sets forth specific rules for the concession of electricity public services. This law, inter alia: (i) established the granting, duration and extension of concessions and permissions; (ii) set forth the free access principle for the power transmission and distribution systems; (iii) released free consumers (as defined below) from the commercial monopoly of distribution concessionaires, allowing them to choose their supplier; and (iv) introduced the independent power producer and the cell producer agents. This law is regulated by Decree No. 1,717 of 1995, which establishes the procedures for extending the concessions granted before the enactment of the Concessions' General Act for a period up to 20 (twenty) years, and by Decree No. 2,003 of 1996, governing the independent producers' and self-producers' system. In addition, Decree No. 7,805 of 2012, which regulates the Provisional Measure ("Medida Provisoria") No. 579 of 2012, later converted into Law No. 12,783 of 2013 sets forth the rules for further extending the concession contracts up to 30 (thirty) years, for one period only.

        Law No. 9,427 of 1996, as amended, inter alia, created the National Electric Energy Agency ("ANEEL"), the regulatory agency concerned with supervising the production, power transmission, distribution and trading of electricity, and it is regulated by Decree No. 2,335 of 1997. Such law granted ANEEL the authority, inter alia, to run public tenders for concessions and permissions, as well as to execute and manage the agreements for delivering public services and to grant certain authorizations. Law No. 9,478 of 1997, as amended, created the National Committee on Energy Policy ("CNPE"), chaired by the Minister of Mining and Energy ("MME"), with the duty of advising the President of the Republic on the national policies in this domain.

        The first phase of the reform was concluded with the enactment in May 1998 of Law No. 9,648, later amended, which regulates competition in the electricity sector. Among many other provisions, it sets forth rules for: (i) the trading, import and export of power; (ii) the division, into separate agreements, of the purchase and sale of energy, and the free access to the power transmission and distribution systems; (iii) the creation of the Electric System National Operator ("ONS"), a legal entity organized under the private law, in charge of the coordination and operational control of the facilities for the generation and power transmission of interconnected electric systems in Brazil; and (iv) the free negotiation of energy, within the scope of the Wholesale Market of Electricity ("MAE"), to be created by a market agreement.

        The second phase of the reform redefined the sector's institutional model, mainly concerning the energy market, by setting forth as chief goals the need for the system's expansion while keeping tariffs low and competition present in power generation.

        The new institutional framework was established by Laws No. 10,848 and 10,847 of 2004 in an effort to restructure the electricity industry to better provide consumers with a secure electricity supply combined with low tariffs by expanding electricity generation and services.

        Law No. 10,848 created two co-existing energy markets: a regulated market, for the protection of customers, and a free market to encourage consumers which are able to buy directly from producers on a

277


Table of Contents

competitive basis ("free consumers"). Law No. 10,848 also created the Chamber of Electric Energy Trading ("CCEE") to manage the agreements for the purchase and sale of energy in the regulated contracting environment ("ACR") and the ascertainment and settlement of contractual differences in the free contracting environment ("ACL"). This law further authorized the creation of the Committee on the Monitoring of the Electricity Sector ("CMSE"), under the aegis of the government, to monitor the supply conditions of the electricity market and the advising of preventive actions for guaranteeing this supply.

        On May 28, 2009, Provisional Measure No. 450 of 2008 became Law No. 11,943, as amended, which authorizes the Federal Government to participate in the Guarantee Fund for Electric Energy Enterprises (Fundo de Garantia a Empreendimentos de Energia Elétrica). Such fund aims to provide financial guarantees proportional to the participation, direct or indirect, of federal or state companies of the electric industry in special purpose companies, created for the development of electric related projects of the Growth Acceleration Program (Programa de Aceleração do Crescimento — PAC).

        More recently, the government passed Provisional Measure No. 577 of 2012, which establishes specific rules for the termination of concessions in the event of bankruptcy or forfeiture and for intervention by the granting authority, acting through ANEEL, in the management of concessionaires in order to ensure the adequate rendering of services and compliance with contractual, regulatory and legal provisions. The goal of the Provisional Measure is to ensure the continuation of the service and its rules on administrative intervention are stricter than the ones of the Concessions' General Act.

        In addition, the government issued Provisional Measure No. 579 of 2012, which establishes that concession agreements expiring between 2015 and 2017 may be extended once, in 2013, thus before their expiration date, for a period of up to 30 years. This Provisional Measure came as a response of the government to the problem of the expiration of many concession agreements between 2015 and 2017. The concessionaires had until October 15, 2012 to express their interest in renewing their concessions. The deadline was later extended to December 4, 2012. Decree No. 7,805 of 2012, previously mentioned, regulates this Provisional Measure. This Provisional Measure has been in the center of heated debates among the many stakeholders. In general lines, the main issue lays in the fact that after the renewal, concessionaires will be remunerated only for the investment they make in the operation and maintenance of equipment, failing to receive higher revenues, which include the amortization of assets. The government will indemnify the concessionaires for these other costs, but the companies argue about what is to be considered in calculation of the indemnity amount. As a partial response to the problem, the government issued Provisional Measure No. 591 on November 29, 2012, establishing that assets belonging to transmission concessionaires prior to May 31, 2005 and which have not yet been fully amortized shall also be compensated. This Provisional Measure is no longer in force. However, this rule has been incorporated in Law No. 12,783 of 2013 and is still applicable.

        The above mentioned Provisional Measures were submitted to the Brazilian Congress, in accordance with the Federal Constitution, and have been converted into Law No. 12.767 on December 27, 2012 and into Law No. 12.783 on January 10, 2013.

The Transmission Sector

        The power transmission of electricity over long distances is undertaken through a basic power transmission network comprised of power transmission lines and respective substations with a tension equal or superior to 230kV. The objective of the basic power transmission network is to enable the integration between remote energy sources and load centers represented by terminal substations, so as to serve the distributors, or large clients directly. The power transmission lines in Brazil are generally extensive as the majority of the important hydroelectric plants are located away from the electricity consumers. Currently, Brazil is almost totally interconnected.

        The basic power transmission network is a large and complex system which allows the electrical integration between different water basins or between different regions of Brazil, thus enabling constant interchanges of energy with the aim of optimizing the operating costs of the generation matrix (operating with a complement of thermal energy), by replacing high-cost thermal generation with hydraulic generation.

278

        In addition, the basic power transmission network permits free access by the interested user agents, while its tariff, known as the TUST (Tarifa de Uso do Sistema de Transmissão), is fixed at differentiated values, depending on the point of the system accessed by the interested party.

        Although the vast majority of electricity power transmission takes place in Brazil through the basic power transmission network, there are some locations in the North Region of the country, such as Amazonas, Roraima, Amapá and some areas of Pará, which are not covered by such network. This area is served by an isolated system grid. Amazonas, Amapá, and part of the State of Pará are expected to leave the isolated system grid by the end of 2013, when the construction of transmission line Tucuruí-Macapá-Manaus shall be concluded. The isolated system grids must comply with several specific ANEEL Resolutions. Planning and monitoring of the systems' operation in the North Region is undertaken by the North Region's Operational Technical Group, created by Ordinance MINFRA No. 895 of 1990. Law No. 12,111 of 2009, regulated by Decree No. 7,246 of 2010, aims to encourage the competitiveness of power suppliers in the isolated systems and establishes the provisions for the interconnection of part of an isolated system to the SIN and determines quality and safety standards similar to those set forth in the SIN. It also redefines the distribution criteria of the CCC — the Fossil Fuel Compensation Account, created by Law No. 5,899 of 1973 — which is a fee paid by consumers of power distribution companies that operate in the ACR.

Brazilian Regulatory Authorities

    National Energy Policy Council — CNPE

        The CNPE, is a body created in August 1997 aimed at advising the Brazilian President with respect to the creation and development of a national energy policy. The Minister of Mines and Energy is the person responsible for the presidency of the CNPE. The majority of its members are ministers of the Brazilian government. The CNPE was created to optimize the use of Brazil's energy resources and to ensure the supply of energy to the country.

    Ministry of Mines and Energy — MME

        The MME is the primary authority of the Brazilian energy sector, having as its main role the definition of policies, guidelines and regulatory framework of the sector. Since the enactment of Law No. 10,848 of 2004, the Federal Government, through the MME, has taken over from ANEEL responsibilities such as the creation of regulations governing the granting of concessions and the definition of rules for public tender offers for concessions of public services and electric energy facilities.

    National Electric Energy Agency — ANEEL

        Based on the general policy established by the CNPE and MME, the Brazilian electricity sector is regulated by ANEEL, an independent federal regulatory agency. After the enactment of the Law No. 10,848 of 2004, ANEEL's primary responsibility is to regulate and monitor the electricity sector. ANEEL's current responsibilities include, among others, (i) managing concessions for electric energy generation, power transmission and distribution, including the approval of electricity tariffs, (ii) proposing and enacting regulations for the electricity sector, (iii) implementing and regulating the exploitation of various energy sources, including the use of hydroelectric energy, (iv) promoting public tender offers for the granting of new concessions, (v) settling administrative disputes between producers and purchasers of electricity and (vi) defining the criteria and methodology for the determination of power transmission and distribution tariffs.

    National Electric System Operator — ONS

        The ONS was created in 1998 as a non-profit private entity comprised of free consumers and players engaged in the generation, power transmission and distribution of electric energy, in addition to importers and exporters of electricity. The main role of the ONS is to coordinate and control the generation and power transmission operations in the SIN in accordance with ANEEL's regulation and supervision. The principal

279


Table of Contents

objectives and responsibilities of the ONS comprise, inter alia, (i) operational planning for the generation sector; (ii) organizing the use of the SIN and international interconnections; (iii) guaranteeing that all players of the sector have access to the power transmission network in a non-discriminatory manner; (iv) planning for the expansion of the electric energy system; (v) proposing plans to the MME for extensions of the basic grid; and (vi) proposing and submitting new rules for the operation of the power transmission system for ANEEL's approval.

    Electric Energy Trading Chamber — CCEE

        The CCEE was created by Law No. 10,848 of 2004 and established by Decree No. 5,177 of 2004 and took over the responsibilities previously performed by MAE (Wholesale Electricity Market) as well as its organizational and operational structures. The CCEE is responsible for, inter alia: (i) preparing and performing electricity auctions within the ACR by delegation of ANEEL; (ii) registering all the power purchase agreements in the ACR, Contratos de Comercialização de Energia no Ambiente Regulado ("CCEAR"); (iii) registering the agreements resulting from market adjustments and the volume of power contracted in the free market; and (iv) accounting for and clearing of short-term transactions.

    Energy Research Company — EPE

        The EPE was created by Law No. 10,847 of 2004 and established by Decree No. 5,184 of 2004. The main purpose of the EPE is to carry out studies and research in order to acquire and provide background information to Brazilian energy sector planning activities. Its primary responsibilities include, among others: (i) the performance of studies and projections with respect to the Brazilian energy matrix; (ii) the execution of research to support integrated planning of energy resources; (iii) the development of studies to support generation and power transmission expansion; (iv) the performance of feasibility studies for electricity generation, including both technical- economic and social-environmental aspects; and (v) the coordination of efforts to obtain pre-construction environmental licenses for hydro power plants and power transmission lines.

    Power Sector Monitoring Committee — CMSE

        The CMSE is an advisory board under direct coordination of the MME. Its primary objective is to monitor and evaluate the continuity of electricity supply and its safety throughout Brazil. Its main attributions include, among others, (i) monitoring the generation, power transmission, distribution, commercialization, import and export of electricity; and (ii) assessment of electricity supply and service conditions.

Concessions

        Companies or consortia that wish to build and operate electricity power transmission facilities pertaining to the basic network are deemed providers of a public utility and are thus eligible for concessions by ANEEL, acting as representative of the granting authority. In most cases, concessions are granted by public auctions where the concessionaire is the bidder that makes the bid with the lowest annual permitted revenue. The agreements define the regulatory regime under which the delivery of public services will be carried out, as set forth by the Concessions' General Act. The concession agreements grant rights to use certain electricity installations during a period of usually 30 years. An existing concession may be renewed at the granting authority's discretion, upon request of the concessionaire, with a 36 month prior notice to the original termination date of the concession agreement ANEEL shall reply to the request within 18 months prior to the expiration of the term of the concession agreement. In case of renewal of the agreements, the economic conditions of these agreements, including the annual permitted revenues, will be adjusted based on factors that maintain the economic and financial balance of the concession, including the amortization of the investments made by the concessionaires in the power transmission installations.

280


Table of Contents

        The Concessions' General Act and the concession agreements establish, inter alia, the requirements that a concessionaire must comply with when providing electricity services, the rights of the consumers, as well as the obligations of the concessionaire and the granting authority. Furthermore, the concessionaire must comply with regulations governing the energy sector. The main provisions of both the Concessions' General Act and the concession agreements are summarized as follows:

    Adequate Service:  The concessionaire must render adequate services in terms of regularity, continuity, efficiency, safety and accessibility;

    Use of Land:  The concessionaire may use public land or request the granting authority to expropriate necessary private land for the benefit of the concessionaire. In this case, the concessionaire must compensate the affected private landowners;

    Strict Liability:  The concessionaire is strictly liable for all damages arising from the provision of its services. See "— Penalties";

    Changes in Controlling Interest:  The granting authority must approve any direct change in the concessionaire's controlling interest;

    Intervention by the Granting Authority:  The granting authority, through ANEEL, may intervene in the concession, by means of an act, to ensure the adequate performance of services, as well as the full compliance with applicable contractual, regulatory and legal provisions. Within 30 days of the act date, ANEEL is required to begin an administrative proceeding to establish the causes and to determine liability, in which the concessionaire is entitled to contest the intervention. The shareholders of the concessionaire under intervention will have 60 (sixty) days from the act date to submit to ANEEL a recovery plan and correction of errors and transgressions which gave rise to intervention. During the term of the administrative proceeding, a person appointed by the granting authority (interventor) becomes responsible for carrying on the concession and the terms of office for officers and members of the supervisory board (Conselho Fiscal) shall be suspended during the intervention. The interventor will be paid with funds from the concessionaire. The intervention term shall be up to one year, renewable at the discretion of ANEEL;

    Early Termination of the Concession:  The termination of the concession agreement may be accelerated by means of expropriation and/or forfeiture. Expropriation results in the early termination of a concession due to the public interest, which must be expressly declared by law. Forfeiture must be declared by the granting authority after the issuance of a final administrative ruling by ANEEL or the MME attesting that the concessionaire, among others: (i) has failed to render adequate service or to comply with applicable law or regulation; (ii) no longer has the technical, financial or economic capacity to provide adequate service; or (iii) has not complied with penalties assessed by the granting authority. The concessionaire may contest any expropriation or forfeiture in the court. The concessionaire is entitled to indemnification for its investments in expropriated assets that have not been fully amortized or depreciated, after the deduction of any amount that must be paid by the concessionaire as penalty;

    Expiration:  When the concession expires, all assets, rights and privileges that are materially related to the rendering of the electricity services revert to the Brazilian government. Following the expiration, the concessionaire is entitled to indemnification for its investments in assets that have not been fully amortized or depreciated as of the expiration date;

    Remuneration:  Power transmission concessionaires are remunerated on the basis of compensation authorized under the concession agreement, which is the annual permitted revenues (Receita Anual Permitida) ("RAP"). Rather than relating to the volume of electricity transmitted, these payments are set by the granting authority upon the granting of each concession. Under the relevant power transmission services agreement ("CPST") and based on the annual permitted revenues, ONS is responsible for calculating the amounts owed to power transmission concessionaires on a monthly

281


Table of Contents

      basis. Based on this calculation, and depending on the agreements executed individually with ONS, power transmission system users make direct monthly payments to the concessionaires;

    Revisions Under Concessions' General Act and the concession agreements:  There are both annual revisions — related to investments in power transmission grids and substations previously agreed upon with the granting authority, and special revisions — related to changes in the tax regime, regulatory tariffs, compensation for certain investments made by the concessionaires for which prior approval by ANEEL is not legally required, or other unforeseen events that, at the discretion of the granting authority, affect the economic and financial balance of the concession agreement. Depending on the nature of the event, the granting authority may conduct a revision unilaterally or at the request of the interested concessionaire; and

    Affordable Pricing:  Client's right to obtain the rendering of the electricity services continuously and with maximum efficiency for the lowest possible price.

        Under the power transmission service agreements and under the concession agreements, the reduction of the revenues can occur based on the following terms:

    by a variable amount equivalent to a maximum of 12.5% of the RAP amount, in the event of an operating unavailability of the grid and substations of a power transmission concessionaire;

    if the operating unavailability occurs following a reduction at the maximum percentage of 12.5%, ONS may charge an additional penalty equivalent to a maximum of 2% of the RAP amount for the preceding 12 month period. This penalty applies to each event of unavailability, without limitation, the CPST also provides that the variable reduction and the additional penalty will not apply in the event of unavailability in the first six months of operations of new power transmission facilities;

    the variable reduction and the additional penalty shall similarly not be applied to events of operating unavailability resulting from force majeure, interruptions authorized or requested by the granting authority or events of unavailability as a result of the inefficiency of ONS or of any other concessionaire; or

    if the unavailability continues for more than 30 consecutive days, the granting authority may initiate legal proceedings to terminate the concession.

        ANEEL may also reduce the annual permitted revenues at any time if the concessionaire starts receiving revenues from other activities.

Regulation of Electricity Utilities — Transmission

    The governmental or administrative authorizations required to construct and operate power transmission networks

        Before the auction for the concession of power transmission lines, the environmental impact assessment and environmental impact reports shall be conducted and must be approved by the proper environmental agency. After the auction, the concession is granted by a presidential decree, followed by the execution of the concession agreement, which is registered and filed with ANEEL. Next, the concessionaire should apply for ANEEL's approval of the Basic Project for Power Transmission Facilities relating to the concession. The previous license (licença prévia), which is the first environmental permit that allows the development of the environmental studies, and the installation license (licença de instalação), which is the permit that authorizes the construction of the project, should be obtained at different stages from the environmental agencies. The Declaration of Public Interest from ANEEL, the operating license (licença de operação) issued by the environmental agency, as well as the release certificate issued by the ONS are also required.

282


Table of Contents

    The Requirements that Must be Met to Obtain Access to such Public Service

        The regulation in force sets forth that the contracting of power transmission services should be executed through CPSTs, agreements for power transmission system use ("CUSTs"), connection agreements and supplementary services agreements. CPSTs are executed between the ONS, the concessionaires of the public utility for electricity power transmission and the owners of the power transmission assets. The CUSTs are executed among the ONS, the power transmission concessionaires represented by the ONS and the users of the basic power transmission network. The latter may be: (i) agents holding a concession or permission for providing the public delivery of power distribution; (ii) power generation agents directly connected to the basic grid or not connected to the basic grid but operating centrally, whether concessionaires or authorized companies; (iii) consumers connected to the basic grid; and (iv) importers and exporters of electricity directly connected to the basic grid.

        There are three types of connection agreements: agreements for a power transmission system connection ("CCTs"), agreements for facilities' sharing and agreements for power transmission system connection compliance ("CCT-TAs"). These agreements are executed between the power transmission concessionaires and the connecting agents, while the ONS is an interested third- party to such agreements.

        There is also the Guarantee Agreement (Contrato de Constituição de Garantia), which is an agreement between ONS acting on its own behalf and on behalf of representatives of power transmission concessionaires and the custodian bank which provides ONS with access to funds available in user-designated bank accounts in the event the latter fails to satisfy payments owed to the power transmission concessionaires and to ONS provided for in the corresponding CUST.

    Governmental Incentives to Encourage Expansion of the Power Transmission Grid

        There are special credit lines available to entrepreneurs from the National Bank for Economic and Social Development (Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social — BNDES). Also, Law No. 11,488 of 2007, as amended, created the Special Incentive Regimen for the Development of Infrastructure (Regime Especial de Incentivos para o Desenvolvimento da Infra-Estrutura — REIDI), which is a general tax incentive to infrastructure projects, directly applies to the expansion of the power transmission grids.

        A recent innovation regarding the granting of the REIDI was established through ANEEL?s Decree No. 274/2013, which stipulated all the data that must be included in the application for its proper approval, which includes, among other requirements, the description of the project, technical and legal information, and the perspective of investment in equipment, materials and machines. All these data must be filled into a specific petition and sent to ANEEL.

    The Rates and Terms for the Provision of Power Transmission Services

        Power Transmission companies are remunerated through the RAP, regardless of the use of their facilities, which is available to ONS and users. This income results from the tariff for the use of the TUST.

    Charges and Tariffs Owed by Power Transmission Concessionaires

        The Electricity Services Inspection Fee (Taxa de Fiscalização de Serviços de Energia — TFSEE), was created by Law No. 9,427, as amended, and regulated by Decree No. 2,410. TFSEE is an annual fee payable directly to ANEEL in 12 monthly payments, and is calculated based on the type of service rendered and in proportion to the size of the concession. It is equivalent to 0.5% of the annual economic benefit earned by the concessionaire. Electricity power transmission concessionaires also must invest each year a minimum of 1% of their net operating revenues in electricity research and development.

283


Table of Contents

    Penalties

        The regulation issued by ANEEL governs the imposition of sanctions against the participants of the energy sector and classifies the appropriate penalties based on the nature and importance of the breach (including warnings, fines, temporary suspension from the right to participate in public auctions for new concessions, licenses or authorizations and forfeiture). For each breach, the fine may be up to 2% of the concessionaire revenues (net of value-added tax and services tax) in the 12 months period preceding any assessment notice. In addition, electricity generation, distribution and power transmission concessionaires are strictly liable for any direct or consequential damages caused to third parties as a result of inappropriate provision of electricity services at their facilities. In case ONS is incapable of determining liability for the damages to a particular concessionaire, permissionaire or authorized agent, or if the damages are caused by ONS, liability is proportionately allocated to the power transmission, distribution and generation agents in accordance with the voting rights of each category under the ONS bylaws.

    Reinforcements and Improvements

        The granting authority may unilaterally amend the concession agreements, including in the event of alterations to the project or previously unforeseen specifications (such as power transmission reinforcements and improvements). A concessionaire is entitled to the economic and financial balance of the concession agreement and, therefore, receives additional revenues by way of amortization of its investments in the implementation of these reinforcements or improvements.

        Until May 2005, a concessionaire's obligation to implement reinforcements was subject to specific prior authorization from ANEEL, which would then set the corresponding additional revenues. Improvements would not require prior authorization or additional revenues. The then existing regulation, however, failed to clearly define reinforcement and improvement. Thus, on May 23, 2005, ANEEL issued Resolution No. 158, distinguishing the projects and installations that would be considered as reinforcements and those deemed to be classified as improvements. In July 2011, Resolution No. 158 was replaced by Resolution No. 443.

        Improvements are the installation, replacement or remodeling of equipment in order to ensure regular, continued, safe and updated electricity power transmission services, pursuant to the relevant concession agreement and network procedures. The costs incurred from improvements will not be taken into account in subsequent revisions of the annual permitted revenues. Nonetheless, the concessionaire can claim for the reestablishment of economic and financial balance of the concession.

        Reinforcements are the implementation of new power transmission facilities, or replacement or adjustment of existing facilities, as recommended in previously approved plans for the expansion of the power transmission system. They are subject to prior authorization by ANEEL and are intended to increase the power transmission capacity or the reliability of the SIN, or also to implement a physical alteration of the configuration of the electric grid or of a given facility. Through ANEEL Resolution No. 443, certain types of reinforcements may be implemented by power transmission concessionaires directly, without prior authorization by ANEEL, provided that they are the result of a request by ONS with a view to expanding power transmission capacity or the reliability of the SIN. In this case, however, ANEEL will not have previously established the additional revenues to which the concessionaire would be entitled for the reinforcement. These revenues, therefore, are calculated based on the special and included in the annual revision of the RAP. In addition, Resolution No. 443 does not assure that all costs incurred by the concessionaire for the investments in reinforcements will be taken into account for establishing the relevant RAP.

        Finally, concessionaires that are not subject to periodic revision of the RAP could be compelled to make investments within the scope of expansion plans or at the request of ONS, which would not require prior approval by ANEEL and, consequently, are not included in the prior definition of RAP. In such event, pursuant to Resolution No. 443, concessionaires will be entitled to apply for acknowledgement of the investments by means of a special revision of the RAP pursuant to a procedure and parameters not clearly defined by ANEEL, including time periods. The lack of a clear definition could result in mismatched investment disbursements

284

and RAP payments. However, additional fixed revenues from revisions will be retroacted until the reinforcement operations begin.

Bioenergy Regulatory Framework

    The Requirements to Produce Energy from Alternative Sources — Especially Biomass

        Pursuant to Law No. 9,074 of 1995, Decree No. 2,003 of 1996 and ANEEL Resolution No. 390 of 2009, a company or a consortium that is interested in producing and trading electric energy in an amount superior to 5 MW from biomass sources — such as bagasse of sugar cane — shall request to ANEEL an authorization to be an Independent Power Producer (an "IPP").

        The interested company shall submit to ANEEL a request and fulfill certain requirements, such as evidence of compliance with tax, social security, FGTS (employee's dismissal fund), and local, state and federal obligations.

        Upon accomplishment of the requirements, ANEEL first issues an order, which allows the interested company to: (i) have access to consult the concessionaries and distributors of energy and also the Electric System National Operator ("ONS"); (ii) obtain the environmental license and authorizations from other federal, state or local public authorities; and also (iii) initiate all measures regarding the construction or expansion of the power plant, at its own risk.

        Following the issuance of the corresponding order and upon accomplishment of other requirements, ANEEL examines: (i) the availability of the fuel, when applicable; (ii) installed capacity to be granted by the plant; and (iii) access to the transmission and distribution grids. ANEEL also verifies the historical record of the company and its economic group and the existence of any prior penalties. Once the prerequisites are accomplished, ANEEL grants an authorization and the corresponding IPP is then allowed to trade the energy produced at its own risk.

        The authorized company shall keep in its files and at ANEEL's disposal: (i) the environmental impact assessment and environmental impact report or related reports and studies; (ii) project documents; and (iii) commissioned studies and reports.

    Access to the Transmission and Distribution Systems

        According to the above-mentioned legislation, an IPP has the right to access the power transmission and distribution grids, connecting its system, through payment of the power transmission and distribution tariffs, calculated on the basis of the criteria established by ANEEL (the "TUST" and the "TUSD", respectively).

        For this purpose, the corresponding IPP executes agreements for the use of the power transmission and distribution systems (the "CUSTs" and the "CUSDs", respectively) and agreements for the connection to the power transmission and distribution systems (the "CCT" and "CCD", respectively). According to ONS procedures, certain of our project companies have been exempted from executing the "CUSTs".

    The Purchase and Sale of Energy from Biomass Sources

        The energy from alternative sources can be traded not only in the regulated contracting environment (the "ACR") but also in the free contracting environment (the "ACL") where the clauses and price are freely negotiated by the parties, by the execution of power purchase agreements of alternative energy (the "CCEI").

        In the ACL, an IPP with an installed power of up to 30 MW can sell energy from biomass sources (and other renewable sources as well) to: (i) other generation agents; and (ii) consumers able to buy directly from the generators on a competitive basis ("Free Consumers") or small consumers, usually with a small business, with an installed load of between 500 kW and 3 MW ("Special Consumers").

285


Table of Contents

        In the ACR, the trade of energy is preceded by a public auction, where the price and conditions of the power purchase agreements are previously established by ANEEL.

        In this regard, we have participated in two public auctions for the purchase of energy from biomass sources in June 2007 and August 2008.

    Governmental Incentives

        The enactment of Law No. 10,438 of 2002, as amended, led to the development of a policy fostering alternative energy sources and also to co-generation, which formulated several strategies.

        One of them is the reduction of the TUST or TUSD, as applicable, to plants with an installed power of up to 30 MW, on a percentage not inferior to 50%.

        Another initiative in this area is the Program for Fostering Alternative Sources of Electricity ("PROINFA"), whereby Electrobras undertakes to purchase energy generated from wind power, small hydroelectric power plants and biomass projects in the SIN. The cost of energy supplied is divided among the final consumers supplied through the SIN, pursuant to the conditions set forth in law and its regulation. BNDES has opened a credit line for investments in PROINFA projects. The same law created the Energy Development Account, the funds of which may be used for the payment of the difference between the 'economic value corresponding to the specific technology of each source' and the 'value corresponding to the generation of competitive energy' from plants that do not take part in PROINFA.

        Another advantage is the shortening of the grace period for Free Consumers to buy energy from small hydroelectric power plants, wind, solar, and biomass power plants.

        In the isolated systems, Law No. 9,648 of 1998, as amended by Law No. 10,438 of 2002, establishes, as incentives for the use of renewable alternative energy sources to replace the oil-based thermoelectric generation, benefits in the sharing of the amounts deposited in the Fuel Consumption Account ("CCC").

        Furthermore, pursuant to Law No. 11,097 of 2005, as amended, which introduced biodiesel into the Brazilian energy matrix, the minimum percentage required for the addition of biodiesel to diesel oil sold in the country is 5%. This percentage must be achieved within eight years after the publication of the above mentioned law.

    Tax Incentives

        Law No. 11,488 of 2007 establishes a special tax regime related to the improvement of Brazilian infrastructure (REIDI) and an IPP can benefit from such special regime during the installation of its plant.

    Ethanol

        Mainly derived from sugarcane, Brazilian ethanol has been commercially produced for more than 70 years, when its addition to gasoline became compulsory. The current legal percentage of ethanol to this blend is 25%.

        There are favorable tax treatments to ethanol transactions available under the following taxes: Contribution for the Financing of Social Security ("COFINS"), Social Integration Program ("PIS"), the Manufactured Goods Tax ("IPI"), the State VAT ("ICMS"), Contribution for Intervention in Economic Domain ("CIDE") and the Import Duty.

        According to Law No. 10,833 of 2003, COFINS will not be levied on export transactions. The same rule applies to PIS, in accordance with Law No. 10,637 of 2002, as amended.

        Export transactions are also exempt from IPI in accordance with Decree No. 7,212 of 2010 and ICMS in the state of São Paulo, as established by Item V of Article 7 of Book 1 of São Paulo Estate Decree No. 45,490 of 2000.

286


Table of Contents

        In São Paulo State, the ICMS rate levied on internal transactions with mineral diesel is 12% as stated by Item VI, of Article 54, of São Paulo Estate Decree No. 45,490 of 2000.

        The CIDE Contribution rate levied on import and commercial transactions is reduced to zero as determined by Decree No. 5,060 of 2004.

        The import tax rate levied on ethanol import transactions is set at 20%. However, in April 2010 the Foreign Trade Chamber ("CAMEX"), of the Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade enacted the CAMEX Regulation No. 21 of 2010 reducing this rate to zero.

    Biodiesel

        As mentioned above, in January 2005 the Brazilian government enacted Law No. 11,097, later amended, to insert biodiesel on the list of the Brazilian energy matrix. The idea behind the National Biodiesel Production and Use Program, launched in 2004, was to gradually replace the use of petroleum-based fuels with clean and renewable fuels.

        To achieve this, it has been mandatory since January 2008 to add a minimum percentage of biodiesel to mineral diesel sold to end consumers nationwide. This percentage is now set at the 5% level.

        The Decree No. 5,297 of 2004 establishes reducing coefficients to PIS and COFINS Contributions according to the nature of the raw material, producer and region of production.

        As stated by Decree No. 6,006 of 2006, the IPI rate levied on transactions with biodiesel under the Standard Classification of Goods No. 3824.90.29 is reduced to zero. (It is important to note that the Brazilian government can increase this rate without enacting a specific law, due to the lawfulness principle). This Decree was later revoked and replaced by Decree No. 7,660 of 2011 and the IPI rate is now set at 10%.

        Like ethanol, there are no taxes levied on export transactions.

        ICMS Covenant No. 113 of 2006 (amended by ICMS Covenant No. 27 of 2011) reduces the ICMS rate levied on interstate transactions with biodiesel resulting from the industrialization of grains, suet, seeds and palm.

    Abengoa Bioenergia Agroindústria Ltda.

Except for the pledge of the Plan Shares, the loan is non-recourse to the participant. The maximum amount of indebtedness related to all such loans is €87 million (including expenses, commissions and interests). As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the amounts drawn by all participants under these loans amounted to €61 million and €59 million, respectively.

    4.
    Share Purchase: The Plan Shares have been purchased by the Bank for the participants and the acquisition cost for all participants has been the average acquisition price, plus associated commissions and other costs, for all of the Plan Shares purchased under the Plan for all participants.

    5.
    Term: The initial duration of the Plan was five complete financial years (2006 - 2010) plus six months (until June 30, 2011). The Plan has since been extended by an additional two years until December 31, 2012, with an additional period to allow for verification of compliance by the parties of their obligations ending on June 30, 2013. The Plan requires the annual accomplishment by the participant of annual management objectives set for the participant by the management of the Abengoa Group company by which the participant is employed. If the annual objectives are not met by the participant, the Bank from which the participant borrowed the funds to purchase their Plan Shares may sell a percentage of the Plan Shares purchased for such participant as follows:

          2006 — 30%
          2007 — 30%
          2008 — 15%
          2009 — 15%
          2010 — 10%

    6.
    As of December 31, 2010, the participants had achieved the annual objectives required by the Plan.

    7.
    Restrictions on Sales: A participant could not transfer, sell, borrow against or otherwise dispose of the Plan Shares purchased by him, initially, before July 1, 2011. When the Plan was extended, these restrictions were extended under identical conditions.

    8.
    Repurchase Option: Under the Plan, Abengoa has a repurchase option under which Abengoa can require a participant to sell the Plan Shares back to the Company on the occurrence of certain events, such as death, disability or retirement of the participant or termination of the employment of the participant with the Abengoa Group company.

    9.
    Shortfall on Sale of Plan Shares: At the end of the five years and six months term of the Plan, if the amount realized on a sale of the Plan Shares does not entirely cover the amount owed under the loan and costs and taxes on capital gains, Abengoa will compensate the participant with the necessary amount to repay the loan plus accrued and unpaid interest and pay such taxes.

    10.
    In 2011, we entered into agreements with the participating financial entities and directors of said Plan for its extension for an additional period of two years until December 31, 2012.

The above terms are incorporated in the form of agreement that each participant in the Plan enters into with Abengoa. In order to compensate the Plan participants under the terms of the share acquisition plan for the negative difference between the fair market value of the shares at the time of expiration of the Plan and the amounts owed by the participants under the bank loans initially received to finance their acquisition of the shares, on June 10, 2013 we repurchased from the participants 2,450,285 Class A shares and 9,801,140

297


Table of Contents

Class B shares and cancelled on their behalf the obligations outstanding under the banks loans. The percentage of Class A shares and Class B shares owned by directors and officers as of the date of this prospectus is therefore 2.5% and 1.9%, respectively. See Note 29 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding compensation expense recorded in recent years.

Extraordinary Variable Compensation Plan

        On July 24, 2006 and December 11, 2006, our Board of Directors approved an extraordinary variable pay scheme for directors ("Plan Two"), as proposed by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee. This plan included 190 beneficiaries (the "Participants") over a five year period from 2007 to 2011 and required the achievement, on an individual level, of objectives as set out in Abengoa's Strategic Plan as well as the individual's continued ongoing service throughout the period of the plan.

        In addition, given that the acquisition of B.U.S. Group AB was completed only shortly following the establishment of the plan, on October 22, 2007, our Board of Directors approved that the directors of B.U.S. Group AB (10 directors) enter the plan under the same conditions.

        The following conditions must be fulfilled in order for a Participant to earn compensation under Plan Two:

            (a)    The Participant must remain in the employment of Abengoa or one of our subsidiaries throughout the term of Plan Two.

            (b)    For each fiscal year of Plan Two, the Participant was entitled to receive an annual bonus under the bonus plan of the company with which the Participant was employed for that year, based on the achievement of at least 90% of the objectives other than bookings or quality specified in such company's bonus plan. Failure to earn a bonus under that company's bonus plan in one year does not disqualify a Participant from being eligible to earn compensation under the Plan in another year.

            (c)    Fulfillment of the consolidated five-year budget of Abengoa or the relevant subsidiary by which Participant is employed corresponding to the fiscal years 2007-2011 according to the Internal Strategic Plan dated June, 2006.

        In case of termination of the employment of a Participant (whether voluntary or by dismissal) before the end of the term of Plan Two, Plan Two will terminate with respect to that Participant, and the Participant will not be entitled to receive any payment under Plan Two. In the case of death of a Participant, Plan Two will terminate with respect to that Participant and, at the end of the term of Plan Two, the heirs of the Participant will be entitled to receive the compensation earned under Plan Two by the Participant for the fiscal years completed prior to the death of the Participant. In the case of either retirement of a Participant on reaching 65 years of age or total disability (that prevents the Participant from being able to do any other type of work) before the end of the term of Plan Two, Plan Two will terminate with respect to that Participant and the Participant will be entitled to receive the compensation earned under Plan Two for fiscal years completed to the date of his retirement. In addition, the Participant will be entitled to receive compensation for the fiscal year in which the Participant retired if the objectives for that fiscal year are fulfilled. This Plan Two expired in January 2013 by the fulfillment of itself.

        On January 24, 2011, our Board of Directors approved an extraordinary variable pay scheme for directors ("Plan Three") as proposed by our Appointments and Remuneration Committee. This plan includes 104 beneficiaries over a five year period from 2011 to 2015, and requires the achievement, on an individual level, of objectives as set out in Abengoa's Strategic Plan as well as the individual's continued ongoing service throughout the period of the plan. Conditions are the same in either plan.

Board Practices

        Under Spanish Law, the board of directors of a Spanish corporation is responsible for management, administration and representation in all matters concerning our business, subject to the provisions of our Bylaws and resolutions adopted at General Shareholders' Meetings by a majority vote of the shareholders. Under Spanish law, the board of directors may delegate its powers to an executive committee or other

298

delegated committee or to one or more executive officers, unless the shareholders, through a meeting, have specifically delegated certain powers to the board and have not approved the board's delegation to others.

Corporate Governance Practices

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL

        We are a public limited liability company (sociedad anónima) organized under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain and our affairs are governed by our Bylaws and the Spanish Capital Corporations Law (Ley de Sociedades de Capital). We were incorporated in Seville, Spain, on January 4, 1941, as a private limited company and became a public company limited by shares on March 20, 1952, under the name of "Abengoa, S.A.", effective as of the same date. We are registered in the Commercial Registry of Seville. We have filed copies of our complete Bylaws as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Please refer to Exhibit 3.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part for complete details of our Bylaws.

        On December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, our share capital stood at €22,617,420 represented by 90,469,680 shares of the same class, with a nominal value of €0.25 each. Our share capital increased by €67,852,260 in 2011 due to the increase in the unit nominal value from €0.25 to €1.00 per share, charged against freely disposable profits, which was agreed at the Annual General Shareholders' Meeting held on April 10, 2011. On this date, we received shareholder approval to amend our By-laws and create three different classes of shares, as follows: (i) Class A shares, with a par value of €1.00 each, belonging to the same class and series, each share carrying 100 votes, of which 84,536,332 shares have been issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus, (ii) Class B shares, with a par value of €0.01 each, belonging to the same class and series, each share carrying one vote, with certain privileges as established in Article 8 of the By-laws, as amended of which 453,526,358 shares have been issued and remain outstanding; and (iii) Class C shares, with a par value of €0.01 each, belonging to the same class and series, being shares without voting rights, with certain privileges as established in Article 8 of the By-laws, as amended of which no shares have been issued or are currently outstanding.

        In October 2011, we issued 17,142,858 Class B shares and warrants to purchase an additional 4,020,124 Class B shares to First Reserve as part of their €300 million investment in Abengoa, which meant an increase of €171,429 in share capital.

        On September 30, 2012, the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting approved an increase in Class B share capital, charged to our freely available reserves, which has been distributed for no consideration to all existing shareholders on the basis of four Class B shares for each Class A share or Class B share which they held. The main purpose of the transaction is to provide our Class B shares with greater liquidity, which we expect to increase our financial flexibility and access to equity capital markets while preserving shareholder stability. In addition, holders of Class A shares were granted a right to convert such shares into Class B shares, which they may exercise until December 31, 2017.

        In accordance with the shareholder approval of the amendments to our share capital and classes of shares, the Class C Shares shall not have any capital allocated to them until the issuance of shares of such class is authorized in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

        As of the date of this prospectus, after giving effect to (i) the increase in Class B share capital approved on September 30, 2012 by the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting (resulting in the distribution for no consideration to all existing shareholders of four Class B shares for each Class A share or Class B share held) and (ii) the voluntary conversions of Class A shares to Class B shares, our share capital is €89,071,595.58, represented by 84,536,332 Class A shares, with a par value of €1.00 each, and 453,526,358 Class B shares, with a par value of €0.01 each. The shares are in book-entry form, indivisible and each share confers on holders identical financial rights, although each Class A share carries 100 voting rights and each Class B share carries one voting right. Co-owners of one share must designate a single person to exercise their shareholders' rights, but they are jointly and severally liable to Abengoa for all the obligations deriving from their status as shareholders.

        The Sociedad de Gestión de los Sistemas de Registro, Compensación y Liquidación de Valores, S.A. Unipersonal, known as Iberclear (the Spanish Central Securities Depository) maintains a registry reflecting the number of shares held by each of its member entities ("entidad participante") as well as the amount of these

304


Table of Contents

shares held on behalf of beneficial owners. Each member entity, in turn, maintains a registry of the owners of these shares. Transfers of shares quoted on a Spanish stock exchange must be made through or with the participation of a member of a Spanish stock exchange that is an authorized stockbroker by book-entry or delivery of evidence of title to the buyer.

        Following the offering, our share capital will consist of 84,536,332 Class A shares, with a par value of €1.00 each, and 636,026,358 Class B shares, with a par value of €0.01 each (assuming that the underwriters do not exercise their option to purchase additional Class B shares). If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional Class B shares in full, we expect the number of issued and outstanding Class B shares to increase to 663,401,358.

        Each ADS represents the right to receive five Class B shares. Initial settlement of our ADSs will take place on the settlement date of the offering through the Depository Trust Company, or DTC, in accordance with its customary settlement procedures for equity securities. See "Description of American Depositary Shares" below for a description of the rights of ADS holders. Each person owning a beneficial interest in our ADSs held through DTC must rely on the procedures thereof and on institutions that have accounts therewith to exercise any rights of a holder of our ADSs. Persons wishing to obtain certificates for their ADSs must make arrangements with DTC.

        The following are summaries of our Bylaws and a summary of the Spanish Capital Corporations Law insofar as they relate to the material terms of our Class A, Class B and Class C shares.

Bylaws

Share Capital

        The Company's share capital is divided into three classes: Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares. As of the date of this document, 84,536,332 Class A shares and 453,526,358 Class B shares are outstanding. No Class C shares are currently outstanding.

Class A Shares

        Class A shares, with a par value of one (1) euro as endow their owners with the following rights established under Spanish law and in our Bylaws:

    Voting Rights.

        Each Class A share carries one hundred (100) voting rights.

    Pre-Emptive Rights and Rights to Free Assignment of New Shares.

        Except in the case of inexistence or exclusion of pre-emptive rights or of rights to free assignment or any similar pre-emptive rights, successive capital increases or successive issues of convertible or exchangeable bonds or any other security or instrument which could give rise to subscription for, conversion into, exchange for or acquisition of or in any other way grants the right to receive Company shares, shall be carried out by the Company with one of the following structures: (i) in the case of capital increases, the simultaneous issue of Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares (if previously issued) in the proportion that the number of shares of each class bears to the total number of shares of all classes already issued into which our share capital is divided at the time of the issuance triggering such preemptive rights; or (ii) in the case of the issue of other securities which could give rise to subscription for, conversion into, exchange for or acquisition of or in any other way grants the right to receive Company shares, holders of Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares shall have preemptive rights to subscribe for such security in the proportion indicated under (i) above.

        With full observance of the principle of proportionality previously referred to, based on the proportion that the number of shares of each class bears to the total number of shares of all classes already issued into

305


Table of Contents

which our share capital is divided at the time of the issuance triggering such pre-emptive rights, the pre-emptive rights, rights to free assignment of shares and any other similar pre-emptive right of holders of Class A shares shall be exercised only over Class A shares (or convertible or exchangeable bonds, warrants or other securities and instruments granting rights to subscription or acquisition of the same).

        In the case of capital increases effected using reserves or premiums obtained from prior issuances of shares to increase the par value of the issued and outstanding shares, the Class A shares as a class shall be entitled to a par value increase in the proportion that the aggregate par value of the issued and outstanding Class A shares at the time of the execution of the resolution respecting such capital increase bears to the Company's share capital represented by the Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares issued and outstanding at such time.

        Notwithstanding the above, the General Shareholders' Meeting shall be entitled to increase the share capital by charge to reserves through the issue of new Class A shares only, provided that a favorable vote of the majority of the shares of each Class then outstanding is separately obtained, and otherwise at all times respecting an equal treatment between all classes of shares.

        Class A pre-emptive rights, rights to free assignment of shares and any other similar preemptive right shall be exercised only over class A shares granting the holder the right to acquire, convert, subscribe or to receive class A shares (or convertible or exchangeable bonds, warrants or other securities and instruments granting rights to subscription or acquisition of the same).in any other way, provided that the principle of proportionality set forth in the above paragraph is fully respected.

        Capital increases using reserves or premiums obtained from the issuance of shares executed by increasing the nominal value of the shares of both classes, class A shares as a whole shall be entitled to a nominal value increase in a proportion similar to the total nominal value of the class A shares in circulation at the time of the execution of the agreement it represents with regards to the Company's stock capital represented by the class A shares and by the class B shares, and by the class C shares issued and circulating at such time.

        Notwithstanding the above, the General Meeting shall be entitled to increase the share capital by charge to reserves through the issue of only new Class A shares, provided always that a favourable vote is separately obtained by the majority of the shares in each of the various classes of shares outstanding, and otherwise at all times respecting an equal treatment between all classes of shares.

    Right to Convert Class A Shares into Class B Shares

        Each Class A share confers on its holder a right to obtain its conversion into a Class B share, exercisable up until December 31, 2017.

        The conversion right shall be exercised by its holder by providing the Company (or, alternatively, the nominee entity appointed for such purpose, through the participating entity in Sociedad de Gestión de los Sistemas de Registro, Compensación y Liquidación de Valores, S.A.U. (Iberclear), by any means allowing to establish receipt, of a notice, deemed to be issued on a firm, irrevocable and unconditional basis, in which the holder shall express the total number of Class A shares it holds and the exact number of Class A shares over which it wishes to exercise its conversion right, so that the Company may carry out the necessary acts and pass the necessary resolutions to effect said conversion and may duly report this to the Spanish National Securities Market Commission by issuing the relevant communication of a relevant fact.

        The above described notice shall be accompanied by the relevant certificate attesting to the legitimate ownership of the relevant Class A shares, issued by an entity participating in the systems managed by Iberclear, or by an intermediary or custodian financial entity, or a managing entity of the shares, on the terms provided in the rules on representation of securities in book entry form or through any other means of evidence to which the Company accords sufficient validity for the purposes hereof.

306


Table of Contents

        Upon the Class A shareholder exercising its conversion right, the share capital of the Company shall be deemed reduced in the amount of the difference between the par value of the Class A shares on which the right is exercised and the par value of the same number of Class B shares, which amount shall increase the restricted reserve which, for these purposes and pursuant to the provisions of section 335.c) of the Capital Corporations Law, the Company shall have established in advance.

        It shall be the Board of Directors' duty, with express power of substitution in favour of the Chairman or the Chief Executive Officer, to determine the term, frequency and procedures to exercise the conversion right, including where appropriate, the assessment of the adequacy of the equivalent means of evidence referred to above, as well as any other aspects as may be necessary for the effective exercise of said right, all of which shall be duly reported through the issue of the relevant communication of a relevant fact.

    Other Rights

        Without prejudice to the provisions described under "— Pre-Emptive Rights and Rights to Free Assignment of New Shares" above, each Class A share confers upon its holder the remaining rights, including the financial rights recognized under Spanish law and the Bylaws, to which shareholders are entitled as shareholders in the company.

Class B Shares

        Class B shares carry the following rights established under Spanish law and in the Bylaws:

    Voting Rights

        Each Class B share, with a par value of one cent euro (€0.01), carries the right to one vote.

    Pre-Emptive Rights and Rights to Free Assignment of New Shares

        With full observance of the principle of proportionality previously referred to based on the proportion that the number of shares of each class bears to the total number of shares of all classes already issued into which our share capital is divided at the time of the issuance triggering such pre-emptive rights, the pre-emptive rights, rights to free assignment of shares and any other similar pre-emptive right of holders of Class B shares shall be exercised only over Class B shares (or convertible or exchangeable bonds, warrants or other securities and instruments granting rights to subscription or acquisition of the same).

        In the case of capital increases effected using reserves or premiums obtained from prior issuances of shares to increase the par value of the issued and outstanding shares, the Class B shares as a class shall be entitled to a par value increase in the proportion that the aggregate par value of the issued and outstanding Class B shares at the time of the execution of the resolution respecting such capital increase bears to the Company's share capital represented by the Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares issued and outstanding at such time.

        Notwithstanding the above, the General Shareholders' Meeting shall be entitled to increase the share capital by charge to reserves through the issue of new Class B shares only, provided that a favorable vote of the majority of the shares of each Class then outstanding is separately obtained, and otherwise at all times respecting an equal treatment between all classes of shares.

    Other Rights

        Except as described under "— Voting Rights" and "—Pre-Emptive Rights and Rights to Free Assignment of New Shares" above and to the regulations in force, and notwithstanding the Class B shares having a lower par value per share, each Class B share confers the same rights, including financial rights, as a Class A share, and we shall grant Class B shareholders the same treatment recognized for Class A shareholders insofar as it does not contradict the stipulations of the regulations in force. In particular, each Class B share grants its holder the right to receive the same dividend, the same liquidation quota, the same restitution of contributions in the event of capital reduction, distribution of reserves of any kind (including, as the case may

307


Table of Contents

be, premiums for attendance at a general shareholders' meeting), issuing premiums and any other allocations as a holder of Class A shares shall receive, all the aforesaid in the same terms as are applied to Class A shares.

        In the event of a capital reduction due to losses through the reduction of the par value of the shares, Class A and Class B shares shall be affected in proportion to their respective par values.

    Separate Voting in the Event of Modifications of the Bylaws or Resolutions and Other Transactions that May Negatively Affect Class B Shares

        Bylaws or resolution amendments that may directly or indirectly prejudice or adversely affect the pre-emptive rights or privileges of Class B shares (including any amendment of the provisions of the Bylaws relating to Class B shares or to any resolution that may prejudice or adversely affect Class B shares relative to the Class A shares or that may benefit or favorably affect Class A shares relative to Class B shares) shall require, in addition to being approved pursuant to the provisions of the Bylaws, the approval by holders of a majority of the then issued and outstanding Class B shares. By way of explanation but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such separate class voting right shall apply to the following: (i) the elimination or modification of the principle of proportionality among the Class A shares, the Class B shares and the Class C shares (if previously issued) relative to the total number of the Company's issued and outstanding shares in connection with the issuance of new shares or securities or instruments that may give rise to subscription for, conversion into, exchange for or acquisition of, or in any other way grants the right to receive, the Company's shares; (ii) the partial or total exclusion, applied in an unequal manner, of the pre-emptive and other analogous rights that may be attached under Spanish law and the Bylaws to Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares (as the case may be); (iii) the repurchase or acquisition of the Company's own shares in a manner that may affect Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares (as the case may be) unequally, whether in the applicable terms and conditions, the purchase price or in any other manner, and which may exceed that which is produced under the framework of ordinary operation of treasury stock or which may give rise to amortization of shares or to the reduction of capital in an unequal manner for Class A shares, Class B shares or Class C shares (as the case may be); (iv) the approval of a structural modification to the Company that results in unequal treatment of Class A shares and Class B shares in any aspect; (v) the exclusion of the shares of the Company from trading on any secondary stock exchange or securities market except through the launching of a delisting public tender offer that provides for the payment of the same consideration to holders of the Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares (as the case may be); and (vi) the issuance of Class C shares or of any other class of preferred or privileged shares that may be created in the future.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, separate class voting shall not be required to approve any resolution authorizing a partial or total exclusion of pre-emptive rights and other analogous rights that may be applicable under Spanish law and the Bylaws in relation to Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares (as the case may be) where such exclusion applies in an equal manner across all such share classes.

    Redemption Rights of Class B Shares

        In the event that a tender offer is made for the acquisition of all of the voting shares of the Company, following which the offeror, together with any persons acting in concert with the offeror, (i) directly or indirectly holds 30% or more of the voting rights of the Company (except where another person, individually or together with other persons acting in concert with it, already held a percentage of voting rights equal to or greater than that held by the offeror after such tender offer), or (ii) becoming the holder of a shareholding below 30%, appoints a number of directors to the Company's Board of Directors that, either by themselves or collectively with those already appointed previously (as the case may be), constitute more than 50% of the Company's Board of Directors, each holder of Class B shares shall be entitled to have all of its Class B shares redeemed by the Company except where the holders of Class B shares had the right to participate in such tender offer in the same manner and on the same terms and conditions and, in any events, for the same consideration, as the holders of Class A shares (each such event under clauses (i) and (ii) above, a "Redemption Event"). In the event that the total nominal share capital represented by the Class B shares that

308


Table of Contents

are presented for redemption exceeds 25% of the nominal share capital of the Company, the number of shares that each holder will be allowed to have redeemed will be determined on a pro rata basis. As of this date, all of the Class B shares would be entitled to redemption, as the total sum of their nominal value is below the aforesaid 25% limit.

    Redemption Procedure

        Upon a Redemption Event, for the purpose of information and within seven calendar days from the date of either the settlement of the tender offer or the offeror's appointment of directors to the Company's Board of Directors who, either by themselves or collectively with those already appointed (as the case may be), constitute more than 50% of our Board of Directors, we shall publish an announcement informing holders of Class B shares of the procedure for exercising their redemption rights in relation to such Redemption Event in the Commercial Registry Official Gazette, in the Spanish Stock Exchange Listing Bulletin, on our website and in a national newspaper of general circulation.

        Each holder of Class B shares may exercise its redemption rights within two months from the date of the last of the announcements mentioned in the paragraph above, by notifying us. We shall ensure that said notice for the exercise of the redemption rights may be issued through the systems established by Iberclear.

        The redemption price that the Company shall promptly pay for each Class B share surrendered by a holder for redemption shall be equal to the consideration paid by the offeror in the tender offer to holders of Class A shares giving rise to the Redemption Event, as increased by interest accruing at the legal interest rate on the aforementioned amount from the date of issuance of the notice of the exercise of redemption rights by such holder until the date payment is actually made to such holder. The Company's directors shall be authorized to execute such resolutions and take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to ensure that the Company fully complies with its obligation to pay the redemption price for any Class B shares as to which the redemption rights are exercised.

        Upon payment of the redemption price, the share capital of the Company shall be deemed reduced in the amount of the par value of the redeemed shares. The amount of the reduction of share capital must not exceed one quarter of the total share capital of the Company. The corporate resolutions approving the issuance shall establish the terms for the exercise of the redemption rights. We will place priority on the redemption requests placed by those shareholders who exclusively hold Class B shares and by those who, holding both Class A and Class B shares, provide evidence that they refused to accept, either totally or partially, the takeover bid that triggered the Redemption Event. In this case, the Company will reduce its share capital by meeting all such priority redemption requests in proportion to the number of Class B shares held by each shareholder.

        As to any non-monetary consideration paid in the offer, it shall be valued at its market value as of the initial settlement date of the offer, which valuation must be accompanied by a report issued by an independent expert appointed by the Company, selected from among audit firms of international renown.

    Restrictions on Payment of Dividends until Redemption Price is Paid

        From the moment the tender offer is commenced until the payment in full of the redemption price (including any accrued interest thereon) in respect of any Class B shares as to which redemption rights have been exercised, the Company may not pay any dividend, distribution or other similar payment whatsoever to its shareholders, regardless of whether such dividend, distribution or other similar payments are paid in cash, securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or in the form of any other securities, assets or rights.

Class C Shares

        Class C shares with a par value of one cent (0.01) of euro carry the following rights established under Spanish law and in the Bylaws:

    Voting Rights

        Class C shares do not carry voting rights.

    Preferential Dividend

        Each Class C share confers on its holder the right to receive an annual minimum preferential dividend charged against ordinary distributable profits for each fiscal year at the end of which such Class C share is outstanding, of one euro cent (€0.01) per Class C share ("Preferential Dividend").

        The Company is required to declare and pay the Preferential Dividend before paying out any dividend whatsoever to holders of voting shares that is charged against the ordinary distributable profits earned by the Company in each fiscal year.

        The Preferential Dividend in respect of Class C shares must be paid within nine months after the end of the fiscal year in respect of which it is due. The aggregate amount of the Preferential Dividend paid on the outstanding Class C shares in respect of any fiscal year shall not exceed the sum of distributable profits earned by the Company in such fiscal year.

        In the event that the Company does not earn sufficient distributable profits in any fiscal year to pay the Preferential Dividend on all Class C shares existing at the close of such fiscal year, the Preferential Dividend shall not be paid out and the part of the aggregate sum of said Preferential Dividend exceeding the distributable profits earned by the Company in such year shall not accumulate as a dividend to be paid out in the future.

        The total or partial failure to pay out the Preferential Dividend in respect of any fiscal year due to failure to earn sufficient distributable profits for full payment of the Preferential Dividend in such fiscal year shall not confer any voting rights on the Class C shares.

    Other Dividends and Distributions

        Each Class C share confers the right of the holder to receive, in addition to the Preferential Dividend, the same dividend, the same liquidation quota, the same restitution of contributions in the event of share capital reduction, distribution of reserves of all kinds or the issuance premium and whatsoever other allocations and distributions as our voting shares, all in the same terms and conditions that correspond to voting shares.

    Preferential Liquidation Right

        Each Class C share confers on its holder the right to receive, in the event the Company is wound up and liquidated, an amount (the "Preferential Liquidation Quota") equivalent to the paid up value of Class C shares.

        The Company shall pay out the Preferential Liquidation Quota for Class C shares before paying any liquidation quota whatsoever to holders of voting shares. Regarding the rest of the liquidation quota that may correspond to them, they shall be entitled to the same rights as voting shares.

    Redemption Rights for Class C Shares

        In the event that a tender offer for all or part of the shares of the Company is made and wholly or partially settled, each holder of Class C shares shall be entitled to have its Class C shares redeemed pursuant to the procedure established for the redemption of Class B shares, provided that such redemption right shall not be available if the holder of Class C shares had the right to participate in such tender offer in the same manner and on the same terms and conditions and, in any events, for the same consideration, as the holders of Class A shares (each such tender offer, a "Class C Shares Redemption Event").

310


Table of Contents

        Notwithstanding the above, the number of Class C shares redeemed as a consequence of a Class C Shares Redemption Event may not represent a percentage of the total number of Class C shares issued and outstanding at the date of the Class C Shares Redemption Event that is greater than the proportion that (a) the sum of Class A shares and Class B shares (as the case may be) (i) held by persons to whom the tender offer giving rise to the Class C Shares Redemption Event is made, (ii) held by the offeror in said tender and (iii) held by persons acting in concert with such offeror or persons who signed agreements with the offeror in relation to the offer, bears to (b) all of the Class A shares and Class B shares (as the case may be) issued and outstanding on the date of the tender offer giving rise to the Class C Shares Redemption Event.

        Notwithstanding the above, the General Shareholders' Meeting shall be entitled to increase the share capital by charge to reserves through the issue of new Class C shares only, provided that a favorable vote of the majority of the shares of each Class then outstanding is separately obtained, and otherwise at all times respecting an equal treatment between all classes of shares.

    Pre-Emptive Right and Rights to Free Assignment of New Shares

        With full observance of the principle of proportionality based on the proportion that the number of shares of each share class bears to the total number of shares of all classes already issued into which our share capital is divided at the time of the issuance triggering such pre-emptive rights, the pre-emptive rights, rights to free assignment of shares and any other similar pre-emptive right of holders of Class C shares shall be exercised only over Class C shares (or convertible or exchangeable bonds, warrants or other securities and instruments granting rights to subscription or acquisition of the same).

        In the case of capital increases effected using reserves or premiums obtained from prior issuances of shares to increase the par value of the issued and outstanding shares, the Class C shares as a class shall be entitled to a par value increase in the proportion that the aggregate par value of the issued and outstanding Class C shares at the time of the execution of the resolution approving such capital increase bears to the Company's share capital represented by the Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares issued and outstanding at such time.

        Notwithstanding the above, the General Meeting shall be entitled to increase the share capital by charge to reserves through the issue of only new Class C shares, provided always that a favorable vote is separately obtained by the majority of the shares in each of the various classes of shares outstanding, and at all times respecting an equal treatment between all classes of shares.

    Separate Voting in the Event of Modifications of the Bylaws or Agreements and Other Operations that May Negatively Affect Class C Shares

        Notwithstanding Article 103 of the Spanish Capital Corporations Law, the Bylaws or any resolution amendments that may directly or indirectly prejudice or adversely affect the pre-emptive rights or privileges of Class C shares (including any amendment of the provisions of the Bylaws relating to Class C shares or to any resolution that may prejudice or adversely affect Class C shares relative to the Class A shares and/or Class B shares or that may benefit or favorably affect Class A shares and/or Class B shares relative to Class C shares) shall require, in addition to being approved pursuant to the provisions of the Bylaws, the approval by holders of a majority of the then issued and outstanding Class C shares. By way of explanation but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such separate class voting right shall apply to the following: (i) the elimination or modification of the principle of proportionality among the Class A shares, the Class B shares and the Class C shares relative to the total number of the Company's issued and outstanding shares in connection with the issuance of new shares or securities or instruments that may give rise to subscription for, conversion into, exchange for or acquisition of, or in any other way grants the right to receive, the Company's shares; (ii) the partial or total exclusion, applied in an unequal manner, of the pre-emptive and other analogous rights that may be attached under Spanish law and the Bylaws to Class A shares and/or Class B shares and Class C shares (as the case may be); (iii) the repurchase or acquisition of the Company's own shares in a manner that may affect Class A shares and/or Class B shares relative to Class C shares unequally, whether in the applicable terms and conditions, the purchase price or in any other manner, and which may exceed that which is

311


Table of Contents

produced under the framework of ordinary operation of treasury stock or which may give rise to amortization of shares or to the reduction of capital in an unequal manner for Class A shares, Class B shares or Class C shares (as the case may be); (iv) the approval of a structural modification to the Company that results in unequal treatment of Class A shares Class B shares (as the case may be) relative to Class C shares in any aspect; (v) the exclusion of the shares of the Company from trading on any secondary stock exchange or securities market except through the launching of a delisting tender offer that provides for the payment of the same consideration to holders of the Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares (as the case may be); and (vi) the issuance of any other class of preferred or privileged shares that may be created in the future.

        Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 293 of the Spanish Capital Corporations Law, any agreement by us to increase capital by any method and under any formula whatsoever entailing the first issue of Class C shares shall also require approval, in addition to the approval in compliance with the applicable law and the provisions of Article 30 of the Bylaws, of the majority of Class B shares then issued and outstanding.

    Payment for Shares

        The general meeting of shareholders or the Board of Directors by delegation may from time to time make calls upon the shareholders in respect of any amounts unpaid on their shares. Each shareholder shall pay the specified amount at the established time or times. If an amount called in respect of a share by the general meeting of shareholder is not paid before or on the day appointed for payment, Abengoa may, at its discretion, adopt any of the following decisions:

        (a)    institute legal proceedings to enforce compliance with the obligation to pay the amount called on the shares plus legal interest and to seek damages sustained as a result of non-payment;

        (b)    take enforced collection action against the shareholder, seizing his or her property to satisfy the amount called on the shares plus interest. The enforcement order can be issued on the basis of certification by Abengoa accrediting that the debtor is a shareholder and the resolution adopted by the Board of Directors to issue a call on shares; or

        (c)    execute the transfer of the shares before a notary public and replace the original share certificate with a duplicate. All expenses incurred in this respect shall be for the account of the defaulting member. If, for any reason, the shares cannot be sold, Abengoa has the right to terminate the contract with the defaulting member and cancel the shares in question, with the corresponding reduction of capital. Any amounts already paid on the shares shall revert to Abengoa.

        The transferee of shares that are not fully paid up shall be jointly and severally liable with all previous transferors, as the Directors may determine, for the payment of sums due on shares. The liability of the transferor shall expire three years from the date of the transfer. All shares shall be freely transferable, there being no restrictions or limitations in this respect.

        The Bylaws do not contain any provision relating to sinking funds or potential liability of shareholders to further capital calls.

General Meetings

        General meetings of shareholders may be at the Annual General Shareholders' Meeting and extraordinary general meetings. The Annual General Shareholders' Meeting is held within the first six months of each fiscal year in order to review, among other things, the management of the Company, and to approve, if applicable, the annual financial statements for the previous fiscal year. Extraordinary general meetings of shareholders are those meetings that are not ordinary. The requirements mentioned below concerning the constitution and adoption of resolutions are applicable to both categories of general meetings.

        The Annual General Shareholders' Meeting of Abengoa is held in Seville, during the first six months of each year on a date fixed by the Board of Directors. Extraordinary general meetings may be called by the Board of Directors whenever deemed appropriate or at the request of shareholders representing at least 5% of Abengoa's share capital or 5% of the voting shares. Notices of all general meetings are published in the

312


Table of Contents

Commercial Registry's Official Bulletin and in one Seville area newspaper at least one month prior to the meeting or by any other means (including publication on our website) authorized under applicable law. Shareholders representing at least 5% of Abengoa's share capital or 5% of the voting shares have the right to request the publication of an amended notice including one or more additional agenda items.

        A holder of a minimum of three hundred and seventy-five (375) shares, whether they are Class A shares or Class B shares, shall have the right to attend the general meeting, provided that the shareholder registers prior to the date on which the meeting is to be held and presents an attendance card issued in his name and stating the number, class and series of shares and the number of votes to which such holder is entitled. The card shall be issued by the entity responsible for book-entry registration to those shareholders who present proof of shares entered in the register five days prior to the scheduled date of the meeting.

        Any shareholder entitled to attend a general meeting shall have the right to be represented at the general meeting by any person. If the proxy is also a shareholder and eligible to attend the meeting in his own right, a private written instrument of proxy issued specifically for the relevant meeting should suffice to document the proxy.

        Legal persons, minors and persons under civil disqualification may be represented at meetings by their legal representatives, who shall present evidence of their powers of attorney to the chair of the general meeting, without prejudice to the provisions contained in the Spanish Capital Corporations Law in relation to family representation and general powers of attorney.

        General Meetings shall be held in Seville on the day designated in the notice calling them. Sessions however may be extended during one or more consecutive days. Said extensions may be agreed upon request by the Board of Directors or by shareholders holding at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the equity present or represented at the relevant meeting or twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting shares.

        Action is taken at the Annual General Shareholders' Meeting on the following matters: the approval of the management of the Company by the directors during the previous fiscal year; the approval of the annual accounts from the previous fiscal year; and the application of the previous fiscal year's income or loss. All other matters can be considered at either the Annual General Shareholders' Meeting or an extraordinary general meeting if the matter is within the authority of the meeting and is included on the agenda.

        Shareholders representing 1% of the share capital or 1% of voting shares are entitled to request the presence of a Notary Public to record the minutes of the general meeting.

        Shareholders representing 5% of the share capital or 5% of the voting shares of the Company are entitled to call a General Meeting to resolve on a corporate action claiming liability against directors, and to bring, even in the absence of a resolution of the General Meeting or despite the existence of a contrary resolution of the General Meeting, a corporate action claiming liability of directors, as well as to challenge, settle or waive such action.

        The quorum required for business to be transacted at a general meeting (either the Annual General Shareholders' Meeting or an extraordinary general meeting) shall be the holders present in person or by proxy of at least 25% of the issued voting share capital. In the event that a meeting stands adjourned because the quorum requirement is not met, there shall be no minimum quorum required at the adjourned meeting.

        Under the Spanish Capital Corporations Law, the rights of shareholders may only be changed by an amendment to the Bylaws that complies with the quorum requirements explained above, plus the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares of the class that will be affected by the amendment. As noted above, holders of Class B shares and holders of Class C shares (if any) are entitled to vote as separate classes in the event of any modification of the Bylaws or resolution for transaction that may adversely affect such Class B and Class C shares.

        However, certain resolutions, specifically those relating to the issue of bonds, the increase or reduction of capital, a change of corporate form, the merger, demerger, global assignment of assets and liabilities, cancellation or restriction of preemptive rights, or the transfer of the registered office abroad of Abengoa and, in general, any amendment to the Bylaws, can only be taken at General Shareholders' Meetings when the holders of at least 50% of the issued voting share capital are present in person or by proxy.

313


Table of Contents

        In the event that a meeting stands adjourned because the quorum requirement is not met, such decisions can be taken at the adjourned meeting when holders of at least 25% of the issued voting share capital are present in person or by proxy. The interval between the first and second call for a shareholders' meeting must be at least 24 hours. However, when less than 50% of the voting share capital is present at the meeting in person or by proxy, a reinforced majority of two thirds of the voting share capital present in person or by proxy is required for the adoption of the aforementioned resolutions (merger, demerger, increase or reduction of capital, etc.).

        Abengoa's shareholders may, at any time, request certifications of resolutions adopted by the general meeting.

        A resolution passed in a shareholders' meeting is binding on all shareholders, unless such resolution is: (i) contrary to Spanish law or our Bylaws; or (ii) prejudicial to our interests and beneficial to one or more shareholders or third parties. In the case of resolutions contrary to Spanish law, the right to contest is extended to all shareholders, directors and interested third parties. In the case of resolutions prejudicial to our interests or contrary to our Bylaws, such right is extended to shareholders who attended the shareholders' meeting and recorded their opposition in the minutes of the meeting, to shareholders who were absent and to those unlawfully prevented from casting their vote as well as to members of the Board of Directors. In certain circumstances (such as a modification of corporate purpose or change of the corporate form, transfer of domicile to a foreign country, intra-European Union merger with transfer of domicile to another European Union country or incorporation of a limited liability European holding company if the dissenting shareholder is a partner of the promoter companies), Spanish corporate law gives dissenting or absent shareholders the right to withdraw from the Company. If this right were exercised, we would be obliged to purchase the relevant shareholding(s) at prices determined in accordance with established formula or criteria relating to the average price of the shares within certain periods of time.

        The regulations that govern the general meeting were approved by resolution of the Board of Directors on February 24, 2003 and by resolution of the general meeting of shareholders on June 29, 2003, and were amended by resolution of the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting on September 30, 2012. The existence of such regulations is obligatory for all corporations listed on a Spanish stock exchange following the adoption of Law 26/2003.

Appointment of Directors

        The general meeting of shareholders — or, where appropriate, the Board of Directors exercising the power legally conferred on it to fill vacancies arising from time to time caused by the resignation or removal of a director during a term — shall appoint the members of the Board of Directors in accordance with the applicable laws. Abengoa's directors are elected for terms of four years. They may be re-elected for one or further four-year terms.

        Under Spanish corporate law, shareholders who voluntarily aggregate their shares so that the capital stock so aggregated is equal to or greater than the result of dividing the total capital stock by the number of directors have the right to appoint a corresponding proportion of the members of the Board of Directors (disregarding fractions). Shareholders who exercise this right may not vote on the appointment of other directors.

        Vacancies occurring in the period between re-elections may be filled by shareholders appointed by the Board of Directors until the following annual general meeting is held. A director appointed in the manner aforesaid shall be subject to retirement at the same time as if he had become a director on the day on which the director in whose place he is appointed was last elected a director.

        Directors shall vacate their office on expiration of the appointment, death or resignation and by resolution of the general meeting in the case of incapacity or removal.

314


Table of Contents

        In addition to compliance with all legal and statutory requirements as to eligibility, directors appointed to the Board shall also be solvent and possess the knowledge, standing, expertise and professional experience required to fulfill the duties of a director.

        In conducting the business of Abengoa, directors shall discharge their duties with due care, exercising good business judgment, and due loyalty. They may be held liable by Abengoa and third parties for damages when they act contrary to the provisions of the Spanish Capital Corporations Law or the Bylaws or act without due care.

        In such cases, all the members of the Board who carried out the detrimental act or who adopted the detrimental resolution shall be jointly and severally liable, except those who can prove that they played no part in any such action and were either unaware of it, did all in their power to prevent any damage or, at least, expressed their objection to it.

        Likewise and by virtue of their office, directors are bound, among others and in particular, to:

            (a)    Avoid conflicts of interest and report any potential conflicts to the Board of Directors, through the Secretary to the Board of Directors;

            (b)    Refrain from holding offices in competing companies or in companies belonging to the group of a competitor of Abengoa. In this sense, directors shall not hold any office, either directly or through an intermediary, in rival companies or undertakings or in the groups of such companies or undertakings, nor shall they provide representation or consultation services to them. They shall consult the Board of Directors before accepting any executive office or directorship of any other company or entity;

            (c)    Refrain from using non-public information pertaining to Abengoa for their own benefit;

            (d)    Refrain from making improper use of corporate assets and from using their position in Abengoa for personal gain without the corresponding consideration;

            (e)    Refrain from using business opportunities made known to them in the course of their work as directors of Abengoa for their own benefit;

            (f)    Refrain from voting on proposals for the appointment, removal and remuneration of directors in which they have a personal interest; and

            (g)    Inform the Board of Directors of any securities or derivates they hold, whether directly or indirectly, in the Company.

        In compliance with the duty of loyalty to Abengoa by which they are bound, directors shall not authorize and, should the case arise, shall report, any operations carried out by members of their own family or by companies in which they hold an executive office or a significant ownership interest, when they are not subject to the conditions and controls referred to above.

        The duty to act as loyal representatives requires directors to inform Abengoa of any shares, options on shares or equity derivatives that it holds in the Company either directly or through companies in which they have a significant shareholding, in accordance with the internal Code of Market Conduct.

        Directors shall abstain from taking part in deliberations and votes relating to proposals for the appointment, re-election or removal of directors in which they have a personal interest. Voting on such matters shall be by secret ballot.

        The Board of Directors of Abengoa is composed of 15 directors.

        The Board of Directors shall meet when it is in the interest of Abengoa to do so, at the discretion of the chairman or at the request of at least two directors, at the registered office of the Company or elsewhere. It shall meet at least three times a year, and the first meeting of the year shall be held in the first quarter. Meetings shall be summoned by the secretary on the instructions of the chairman or, in his absence or

315


Table of Contents

incapacity, on the instructions of the director taking his place. The notice, which shall state the agenda, place, day and hour of the meeting, shall be delivered to the members of the Board in writing no less than ten days prior to the meeting. However, notice requirements may be dispensed with if all the members of the Board are present or give their written consent to such a meeting. Decisions can be taken by voting in writing provided that all members so agree.

        No business may be transacted at a meeting of the Board of Directors unless half plus one of the directors are present in person or by proxy, except in the event that a meeting is held without notice, in which case all the members of the Board of Directors must be present.

        Directors may appoint another director as their proxy. There is no restriction on the number of instruments of proxy that any one director may hold for a specific meeting. Proxies may be granted in any written form, including telegram, telex or telefax, and shall be addressed to the chairman of the Board.

        Resolutions shall be carried by a majority vote of those present at the meeting in person or by proxy. In the event of an equality of votes, the chairman of the Board of Directors shall have the casting vote.

        The Board of Directors of Abengoa has made available, from the year 1998, the Regulations that regulate its operation and the operation of its Committees. The existence of Regulations that govern the structure and functions of the Board of Directors and its supervision and control is obligatory for all corporations listed on a Spanish stock exchange in accordance with Law 26/2003, of July 17, 2003.

Pre-emptive Rights

        Pursuant to the Spanish Capital Corporations Law, shareholders have pre-emptive rights to subscribe for any new shares, and bonds convertible into shares issued by Abengoa. However, the pre-emptive rights of holders of shares may not be available under special circumstances if they are excluded by a resolution passed at a general meeting in accordance with Articles 304.2, 308, 416.2, 504, 505 and 506 of the Spanish Capital Corporations Law or by the Board of Directors pursuant to the authority to do so conferred to it by a shareholders' resolution.

        Further, pre-emptive rights are not available in the event of an increase in capital in connection with (i) the conversion of convertible bonds into shares in accordance with their terms, (ii) a merger or a public exchange offer in which shares are issued as consideration; (iii) an acquisition of assets from another company in which shares are issued as consideration; or (iv) in the case of capital increases with non-monetary contributions or by way of capitalization of credits held vis-à-vis the Company.

        Preemptive rights are transferable, may be traded on the Automated Quotation System and may be of value to existing shareholders because new shares may be offered for subscription at prices lower than prevailing market prices.

        In the case of a listed company, when the shareholders authorize the Board of Directors to issue new shares or bonds convertible into shares, they can also authorize the Board of Directors to not grant pre-emptive rights in connection with such new shares or bonds convertible into shares if it is in the best interests of the company.

Shareholder Suits

        Shareholders in their capacity as shareholders may bring actions challenging resolutions adopted at general meetings. The court of first instance in the company's corporate domicile has exclusive jurisdiction over shareholder suits.

        Under the Spanish Capital Corporations Law, directors are liable to the company and the shareholders and creditors of the company for acts and omissions contrary to Spanish law or the company's Bylaws and for failure to carry out the duties and obligations required of directors. Directors have such liability even if the

316


Table of Contents

transaction in connection with which the acts or omissions occurred is approved or ratified by the shareholders.

        The liability of the directors is joint and several, except to the extent any director can demonstrate that he or she did not participate in decision making relating to the transaction at issue, was unaware of its existence or being aware of it, did all that was possible to mitigate any damages or expressly disagreed with the decision-making relating to the transaction.

Reporting Requirements

Acquisition of Shares

        Spanish law requires any person or group, which as a result of an acquisition or transfer of shares, reaches, increases its ownership above or decreases its ownership below 3%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 75%, 80% or 90% of the capital stock of a company listed on a Spanish stock exchange, to report such acquisition or transfer to (i) the company whose securities are being acquired and (ii) the CNMV.

        The individual or legal entity obliged to carry out the notification must serve it by means of the standard form approved by the CNMV within four business days from the date on which the transaction is acknowledged (Royal Decree 1362/2007 deems a transaction to be acknowledged within two business days from the date on which such transaction is entered into).

        In certain circumstances established by Royal Decree 1362/2007, the notification requirements on the acquisition or transfer of shares also apply to any person or legal entity that, independently of the ownership of the shares, may acquire, transmit or exercise the voting rights granted by those shares, provided that the proportion of voting rights reaches, increases above or decreases below, the percentages set forth by Spanish law.

        The ownership thresholds that trigger these reporting obligations are reduced to 1% and any multiple of 1% for purchasers residing in designated tax havens or jurisdictions where such ownership is not taxable or where no effective mechanisms exist for the exchange of tax information, pursuant to current regulation. Furthermore, any person or legal entity must similarly report any acquisition or transfer, regardless of size, of equity securities of a company listed on a Spanish stock exchange if such person or legal entity is a member of the Board of Directors of such company.

        All directors must report to us and the CNMV the percentage and number of voting rights held by them at the time of becoming or ceasing to be a member of the Board of Directors. Additionally, in accordance with Royal Decree 1333/2005 members of the Board of Directors of Abengoa and certain members of the Senior Management (as defined in the Royal Decree) must notify us and the CNMV about all transactions carried out by them or by any person or entity to whom they have a direct relationship regarding shares or financial instruments which carry a right to acquire or dispose of shares attaching voting rights of Abengoa or regarding derivatives or other financial instruments linked to said shares.

        Moreover, pursuant to article 30.6 of Royal Decree 1362/2007, in the context of a takeover bid, the following transactions should be notified to the CNMV: (i) any acquisition reaching or exceeding 1% of the voting rights of the Company, and (ii) any increase or decrease in the percentage of voting rights held by holders of 3% or more of the voting rights in the Company. The CNMV will immediately make public this information.

Disclosure of Net Short Positions

        Net short positions on shares listed on the Spanish Stock Exchanges equal to, or in excess of, 0.2% of the relevant issuer's share capital and any increases or reductions thereof by 0.1% are required to be disclosed to

317


Table of Contents

the CNMV by no later than the first trading day following the transaction. If the net short position reaches 0.5%, and also at every 0.1% above that, the CNMV will disclose the net short position to the public.

Acquisition of Own Shares

        In application of the law, the maximum percentage permitted in relation to the own shares held by Abengoa is 10% of its share capital. If an acquisition or series of acquisitions of shares of Abengoa reaches or exceeds or causes Abengoa's and its affiliates holdings to reach or exceed 1% of Abengoa's voting shares, Abengoa must notify its final holding of treasury stock to the CNMV. If such threshold is reached as a result of a series of acquisitions, such reporting obligation will only arise after the closing of the acquisition which, taken together with all acquisitions made since the last of any such notifications, causes Abengoa's and its affiliates holdings to exceed, 1% of Abengoa's voting shares. Sales and other dispositions of Abengoa's treasury stock will not be deducted in the calculation of such threshold. This requirement also applies if the stock is acquired by a majority-owned subsidiary of Abengoa.

Shareholder Agreements

        Parties which enter into, extend or amend certain types of shareholders' agreements regarding publicly-traded corporations must notify the relevant corporation and the CNMV and provide them with a copy of the relevant clauses of the document, which should also be deposited with the commercial register. These agreements must be registered in the Company's file at the Commercial Registry of Seville and shall be published as a Relevant Event through the CNMV and at the Company's webpage.

        Shareholders' agreements that need to be notified are agreements whose objective is the exercise of the right to vote in General meetings and agreements that restrict or condition the free transferability of shares or bonds convertible into shares.

        Such a shareholders' agreement has no effect with respect to the regulation of the right to vote in General meetings and restrictions or conditions on the free transferability of shares and bonds convertible into shares until such time as the aforementioned notifications, deposits and publications are made.

        Upon request by the interested parties, the CNMV may waive the requirement to report, deposit and publish the agreement when publishing the shareholders' agreement could cause harm to the company.

        Currently, Abengoa is aware of the existence of the following agreements between shareholders:

Agreement between Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A., Finarpisa, S.A. and First Reserve Corporation

        According to the terms and conditions provided in the investment agreement (the "Investment Agreement") between Abengoa and First Reserve Fund XII, L.P., which subsequently assigned its contractual rights and obligations thereunder to First Reserve Alfajor Holding, S.à.r.l. (the "Investor"), Inversión Corporativa and Finarpisa, S.A., shareholders of Abengoa, entered into an agreement on October 3, 2011, which regulates the exercise of their respective rights to vote in Abengoa's general meetings in relation with the proposal, appointment, ratification, reelection or substitution of a director in representation of the Investor.

        Inversión Corporativa and Finarpisa, S.A. jointly and severally have undertaken, subject to the terms and conditions stated in the Investment Agreement, as applicable:

    (i)
    through their respective domanial directors ("consejeros dominicales") at the Board of Directors of Abengoa to vote in favor of (x) the appointment to such Board of the Investor's nominee for the Director designated by the Investor pursuant to the cooptación procedure provided under the Spanish Capital Corporations Law, and (y) the proposal to recommend to Abengoa's shareholders the election of any replacement Director designated by the Investor to the Board of Directors at Abengoa's annual general meeting of shareholders;

318


Table of Contents

    (ii)
    to vote, at the corresponding annual general meeting of shareholders of Abengoa, in favour of the appointment of the Investor's nominee for the Designated Investor Director to be appointed to the Board of Directors; and

    (iii)
    so long as the Investor or any of its permitted transferees owns any Class B shares or any other security convertible into, or exchangeable for, Class B shares issued pursuant to the Investment Agreement or any other transaction document, not to propose, or request to the Board of Directors to recommend, to the shareholders any amendment to the Abengoa's organizational documents that would adversely modify the equal rights of Class B shares and Class A shares in relation to dividends or other distributions as currently set forth in the organizational documents and, if proposed by any shareholder or by the Board of Directors, to vote against such amendment.

Shareholders Agreement between Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A., and Abengoa, S.A.

        Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. has entered into a shareholders' agreement with Abengoa, whereby the first undertakes, directly or indirectly through its subsidiary Finarpisa S.A., among other things, (i) to exercise their voting rights up to a maximum of 55.93% of the total voting rights in the Company in the event that, as a result of the exercise of the right of holders of Class A shares to convert such shares into Class B shares, the total percentage of voting rights it holds increases in relation to the total voting rights in the Company, and (ii) that their voting rights shall not be higher than four times their economic rights from the total rights of the Company and that, if so occurred, it will sell or transfer Class A shares or Class B shares in the amount required to maintain that ratio.

Registration Rights Agreement between Abengoa, S.A. and FR Alfajor Holdings S.à. r.l.

        On November 4, 2011, we entered into an agreement with FR Alfajor Holdings S.à. r.l. ("FRAH"), an affiliate of First Reserve, relating to certain registration rights granted in connection with the purchase of our Class B shares by First Reserve in October 2011. Under the registration rights agreement, we are responsible, subject to certain exceptions, for the expenses of any offering of our common shares held by FRAH other than underwriting discounts and selling commissions. The registration rights agreement contains customary indemnification provisions.

Demand Registration Rights

        Under the registration rights agreement, subject to certain exceptions, FRAH may require us to effect a registration under the Securities Act for the sale of their Class B shares of our company. However, we are not obliged to effect any such registration when (1) the request for registration does not cover that number of shares with an anticipated gross offering price of at least €60.0 million, or (2) we elect to only issue Class B shares on the Spanish Stock Exchanges and not also ADSs on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

Piggyback Registration Rights

        Under the registration rights agreement, if we propose to register the offer and sale of any of our securities under the Securities Act, in connection with the public offering of such securities, FRAH will be entitled to certain "piggyback" registration rights allowing them to include their shares in such registration, subject to certain marketing and other limitations.

F-3 Registration Rights

        Under the registration rights agreement, and at such time as we are eligible to do so, FRAH may make a written request that we file a Registration Statement on Form F-3 for an offering of FRAH's Class B shares. In addition, during such time when we have an effective Registration Statement on Form F-3, FRAH may make a written request to register the offer and sale of their shares on a shelf registration statement on Form F-3, so

319


Table of Contents

long as the request covers at least that number of shares with an anticipated aggregate offering price of at least €60.0 million.

Termination

        The rights of FRAH under the registration rights agreement terminate on the date upon which FRAH ceases to hold any of our Class B shares.

Share Repurchases

        Pursuant to Spanish corporate law, we may only repurchase our own shares within certain limits and in compliance with the following requirements:

    the repurchase must be authorized by the General Shareholders' Meeting by a resolution establishing the maximum number of shares to be acquired, the minimum and maximum acquisition price and the duration of the authorization, which may not exceed five years from the date of the resolution;

    the aggregate par value of the shares repurchased, together with the aggregate par value of the shares already held by us and our subsidiaries, must not exceed 10% of our share capital;

    the acquisition may not lead to net equity being lower than the share capital plus non-distributable reserves in accordance with Spanish corporate law and our Bylaws; and

    the shares repurchased must be fully paid, and must be free of ancillary contributions ("prestaciones accesorias").

        Treasury shares do not have voting rights or economic rights (e.g., the right to receive dividends and other distributions and liquidation rights), except the right to receive bonus shares, which will accrue proportionately to all of our shareholders. Treasury shares are counted for purposes of establishing the quorum for shareholders' meetings and majority voting requirements to pass resolutions at shareholders' meetings.

        Directive 2003/6/EC of the European Parliament and the European Council dated January 28, 2003 on insider dealing and market manipulation establishes rules in order to ensure the integrity of European Community financial markets and to enhance investor confidence in those markets. Article 8 of this directive establishes an exemption from the market manipulation rules regarding share buy-back programs by companies listed on a stock exchange in an EU Member State. European Commission Regulation No. 2273/2003, dated December 22, 2003, implemented the aforementioned directive with regard to exemptions for buy-back programs. Article 3 of this regulation states that in order to benefit from the exemption provided for in Article 8 of the directive, a buy-back program must comply with certain requirements established under such regulation and the sole purpose of the buy-back program must be to reduce the share capital of an issuer (in value or in number of shares) or to meet obligations arising from either of the following:

    debt financial instruments exchangeable into equity instruments; or

    employee share option programs or other allocations of shares to employees of the issuer or an associated company.

        In addition, the CNMV issued on December 19, 2007 Circular 3/2007 setting out the requirements to be met by liquidity contracts entered into by issuers with financial institutions for the management of its treasury shares to constitute an accepted market practice and, therefore, be able to rely on a safe harbour for the purposes of market abuse regulations.

Restrictions on Investments in Spanish Companies

        The Spanish Stock Exchanges and other securities markets are open to foreign investors.

320


Table of Contents

        Under Abengoa's Bylaws, all the shares forming part of the share capital of the company are transferable to foreign investors, provided all statutory and legal requirements are met.

        Pursuant to Law 18/1992, of July 1, 1992, and Royal Decree 664/1999, of April 23, 1999, foreign investors may freely invest in shares of Spanish companies (as well as transfer invested capital, capital gains and dividends out of Spain without limitation, subject to applicable taxes and exchange controls) and need only notify the Spanish Ministry of Economy of their investment after it has been made and for administrative, economic and statistical purposes, for the purposes of its registration with the Spanish Registry of Foreign Investments. The shares underlying the ADSs are so registered.

        In addition, if a foreign investor is an individual or entity resident in designated tax havens, this investor is also required to file a prior notification of investment with the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Finance as well as after consummating the transaction. This prior notification is not necessary when the investment is made in transferable securities (whether or not trading on the official secondary market) or when the foreign holding in the Spanish target company does not exceed 50%.

        Law 19/2003 of July 4, 2003, which has as its purpose the establishment of a regulatory regime relating to capital flows to and from legal or natural persons abroad and the prevention of money laundering, generally provides for the liberalization of the regulatory environment with respect to acts, businesses, transactions and other operations between Spanish residents and non-residents of Spain in respect of which charges or payments abroad will occur, as well as money transfers, variations in accounts or financial debit or credits abroad. These operations must be reported to the Ministry of the Economy and the Bank of Spain only for informational and statistical purposes.

        The most important developments resulting from Law 19/2003 are the obligations on financial intermediaries to provide to the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Finance and the Bank of Spain information corresponding to client transactions.

Tender Offers

        Tender offers are governed in Spain by Law 24/1988 on the Securities Market (as amended by Law 6/2007 of April 13) and Royal Decree 1066/2007, of July 27, 2007, which have implemented Directive 2004/25/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 21, 2004.

        Tender offers in Spain may qualify as either mandatory or voluntary offers.

        Mandatory public tender offers must be launched for all the shares of the target company or other securities that might directly or indirectly give the right to subscription thereto or acquisition thereof (including convertible and exchangeable bonds) at an equitable price when any person acquires control of a Spanish company listed on the Spanish Stock Exchanges, whether such control is obtained:

    by means of the acquisition of shares or other securities that directly or indirectly give the right to subscribe or acquire voting shares in such company;

    through agreements with shareholders or other holders of said securities; or

    as a result of other situations of equivalent effect as provided in the regulations (i.e., indirect control acquired through mergers, share capital decreases, target's treasury stock variations or securities exchange or conversion, etc.).

        A person is deemed to have obtained the control of a target company, individually or jointly with concerted parties, whenever:

    it acquires directly or indirectly a percentage of voting rights equal to or greater than 30%; or

    it has acquired a percentage of less than 30% of the voting rights and appoints, in the 24 months following the date of acquisition of said percentage, a number of directors that, together with those

321


Table of Contents

      already appointed, if any, represent more than one-half of the members of the target company's board of directors. Regulations also set forth certain situations where directors are deemed to have been appointed by the bidder or persons acting in concert therewith unless evidence to the contrary is provided.

        For the purposes of calculating the percentages of voting rights acquired, the regulations establish the following rules:

    percentages of voting rights corresponding to (i) companies belonging to the same group as the bidder; (ii) members of the board of directors of the bidder or of companies of its group; (iii) persons acting in concert with or for the account of the bidder; (iv) voting rights exercised freely and over an extended period by the bidder under proxy granted by the actual holders or owners of such rights, in the absence of specific instructions with respect thereto; and (v) shares held by a nominee, such nominee being understood as a third party whom the bidder totally or partially covers against the risks inherent in acquisitions or transfers of the shares or the possession thereof, will be deemed to be held by the bidder;

    both the voting rights arising from the ownership of shares and those enjoyed under a usufruct or pledge or upon any other title of a contractual nature will be counted towards establishing the number of voting rights held;

    the percentage of voting rights shall be calculated based on the entire number of shares carrying voting rights, even if the exercise of such rights has been suspended; treasury shares held directly or indirectly by the target company as per the information available on the date of calculation of the percentage of voting rights shall be excluded; and non-voting shares shall be taken into consideration only when they carry voting rights pursuant to applicable law; and

    acquisitions of securities or other financial instruments giving the right to the subscription, conversion, exchange or acquisition of shares which carry voting rights will not result in the obligation to launch a tender offer until any such subscription, conversion, exchange or acquisition occurs.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the terms established in the regulations, the CNMV will conditionally dispense with the obligation to launch a mandatory bid when another person or entity not concerted with the potential bidder directly or indirectly holds an equal or greater voting percentage in the target company.

        The price of the mandatory tender offer is deemed equitable when it is at least equal to the highest price paid by the bidder or by any person acting in concert therewith for the same securities during the 12 months prior to the announcement of the tender offer. Other rules to calculate such equitable price are set forth in the regulations. However, the CNMV may change the price so calculated in certain circumstances (extraordinary events affecting the price, evidence of market manipulation, etc.).

        Mandatory offers must be launched within one month from the acquisition of the control of the target company.

        Voluntary tender offers may be launched when a mandatory offer is not required. Voluntary offers are subject to the same rules established for mandatory offers except for the following:

    they might be subject to certain conditions (such as amendments to the bylaws or adoption of certain resolutions by the target company, acceptance of the offer by a minimum number of securities, approval of the offer by the shareholders' meeting of the bidder; and any other deemed by the CNMV to be in accordance with law), provided that such conditions can be met before the end of the acceptance period of the offer; and

    they must not be launched at an equitable price. However, if they are not launched at an equitable price and upon settlement of the tender offer shares representing at least 50% of the voting rights are

322


Table of Contents

      tendered in the offer (excluding voting rights already held by the offeror and those belonging to shareholders who entered into an agreement with the offeror regarding the tender offer), the offeror may become obliged to launch a mandatory tender offer.

        In any case, by virtue of an amendment to the Spanish Securities Act operated by Law 1/2012, of June 22, the price in a voluntary tender offer must be the higher of (i) the equitable price and (ii) the price resulting from an independent valuation report, and must at least consist of cash as an alternative if certain circumstances have occurred during the two years prior to the announcement of the offer (basically, the trading price for the shares being affected by price manipulation practices, market or share prices being affected by natural disasters, force majeure, or other exceptional events, or the target company being subject to expropriation or confiscation resulting in significant impair of the company's real value).

        Spanish regulations on tender offers set forth further provisions, including:

    subject to shareholder approval within 18 months from the date of announcement of the tender offer, the board of directors of a target company will be exempt from the rule prohibiting frustrating action against a foreign bidder whose board of directors is not subject to an equivalent passivity rule;

    defensive measures included in a listed company's bylaws and transfer and voting restrictions included in agreements among a listed company's shareholders will remain in place whenever the company is the target of a tender offer, unless the shareholders resolve otherwise (in which case any shareholders whose rights are diluted or otherwise adversely affected will be entitled to compensation at the target company's expense); and

    squeeze-out and sell-out rights will apply provided that following a mandatory tender offer (or as a result of a voluntary offer for all the target's share capital) the bidder holds securities representing at least 90% of the target company's voting capital and the tender offer has been accepted by the holders of securities representing at least 90% of the voting rights other than those held by the bidder previously to the offer.

DESCRIPTION OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES

American Depositary Shares

        Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") has agreed to act as the depositary bank for the American Depositary Shares. Citibank's depositary offices are located at 388 Greenwich St. New York NY 10013. American Depositary Shares are frequently referred to as "ADSs" and represent ownership interests in securities that are on deposit with the depositary bank. ADSs may be represented by certificates that are commonly known as "American Depositary Receipts" or "ADRs." The depositary bank typically appoints a custodian to safekeep the securities on deposit. In this case, the custodian is Citibank International Plc., Madrid Branch, located at Parque Empresarial La Moraleja, Avenida Europe 19 2800, Alcobendas, Madrid, Spain.

        We will appoint Citibank as depositary bank pursuant to a deposit agreement. A copy of the Deposit Agreement is on file with the SEC under cover of a registration statement on Form F-6. You may obtain a copy of the Deposit Agreement from the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549 and from the SEC's website (www.sec.gov). Please refer to Registration Number 333-                           when retrieving such copy.

        We are providing you with a summary description of the material terms of the ADSs and of your material rights as an owner of ADSs. Please remember that summaries by their nature lack the precision of the information summarized and that the rights and obligations of an owner of ADSs will be determined by reference to the terms of the Deposit Agreement and not by this summary. We urge you to review the Deposit Agreement in its entirety.

        Each ADS represents the right to receive five Class B shares on deposit with the custodian. An ADS also represents the right to receive any other property received by the depositary bank or the custodian on behalf of the owner of the ADS but that has not been distributed to the owners of ADSs because of legal restrictions or practical considerations.

        If you become an owner of ADSs, you will become a party to the Deposit Agreement and therefore will be bound to its terms and to the terms of any ADR that represents your ADSs. The Deposit Agreement and the ADR specify our rights and obligations as well as your rights and obligations as owner of ADSs and those of the depositary bank. As an ADS holder you appoint the depositary bank to act on your behalf in certain circumstances. The Deposit Agreement and the ADRs are governed by New York law. However, our obligations to the holders of Class B shares will continue to be governed by the laws of Spain, which may be different from the laws in the United States.

        In addition, applicable laws and regulations may require you to satisfy reporting requirements and obtain regulatory approvals in certain circumstances. You are solely responsible for complying with such reporting requirements and obtaining such approvals. Neither the depositary bank, the custodian, us or any of their or our respective agents or affiliates shall be required to take any actions whatsoever on behalf of you to satisfy such reporting requirements or obtain such regulatory approvals under applicable laws and regulations.

        As an owner of ADSs, you may hold your ADSs either by means of an ADR registered in your name, through a brokerage or safekeeping account, or through an account established by the depositary bank in your name reflecting the registration of uncertificated ADSs directly on the books of the depositary bank (commonly referred to as the "direct registration system" or "DRS"). The direct registration system reflects the uncertificated (book-entry) registration of ownership of ADSs by the depositary bank. Under the direct registration system, ownership of ADSs is evidenced by periodic statements issued by the depositary bank to the holders of the ADSs. The direct registration system includes automated transfers between the depositary bank and The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), the central book-entry clearing and settlement system for equity securities in the United States. If you decide to hold your ADSs through your brokerage or safekeeping account, you must rely on the procedures of your broker or bank to assert your rights as ADS owner. Banks and brokers typically hold securities such as the ADSs through clearing and settlement systems such as DTC. The procedures of such clearing and settlement systems may limit your ability to exercise your rights as an

324


Table of Contents

owner of ADSs. Please consult with your broker or bank if you have any questions concerning these limitations and procedures. All ADSs held through DTC will be registered in the name of a nominee of DTC. This summary description assumes you have opted to own the ADSs directly by means of an ADS registered in your name and, as such, we will refer to you as the "holder." When we refer to "you," we assume the reader owns ADSs and will own ADSs at the relevant time.

Dividends and Distributions

        As a holder, you generally have the right to receive the distributions we make on the securities deposited with the custodian. Your receipt of these distributions may be limited, however, by practical considerations and legal limitations. Holders will receive such distributions under the terms of the Deposit Agreement in proportion to the number of ADSs held as of a specified record date.

Distributions of Cash

        Whenever we make a cash distribution for the securities on deposit with the custodian, we will deposit the funds with the custodian. Upon receipt of confirmation of the deposit of the requisite funds, the depositary bank will arrange for the funds to be converted into U.S. dollars and for the distribution of the U.S. dollars to the holders, subject to Spanish laws and regulations.

        The conversion into U.S. dollars will take place only if practicable and if the U.S. dollars are transferable to the United States. The amounts distributed to holders will be net of the fees, expenses, taxes and governmental charges payable by holders under the terms of the Deposit Agreement. The depositary bank will apply the same method for distributing the proceeds of the sale of any property (such as undistributed rights) held by the custodian in respect of securities on deposit.

Distributions of Shares

        Whenever we make a free distribution of Class B shares for the securities on deposit with the custodian, we will deposit the applicable number of Class B shares with the custodian. Upon receipt of confirmation of such deposit, the depositary bank will either distribute to holders new ADSs representing the Class B shares deposited or modify the ADS-to-Class B shares ratio, in which case each ADS you hold will represent rights and interests in the additional Class B shares so deposited. Only whole new ADSs will be distributed. Fractional entitlements will be sold and the proceeds of such sale will be distributed as in the case of a cash distribution.

        The distribution of new ADSs or the modification of the ADS-to-Class B shares ratio upon a distribution of Class B shares will be made net of the fees, expenses, taxes and governmental charges payable by holders under the terms of the Deposit Agreement. In order to pay such taxes or governmental charges, the depositary bank may sell all or a portion of the new Class B shares so distributed.

        No such distribution of new ADSs will be made if it would violate a law (i.e., the U.S. securities laws) or if it is not operationally practicable. If the depositary bank does not distribute new ADSs as described above, it may sell the Class B shares received upon the terms described in the Deposit Agreement and will distribute the proceeds of the sale as in the case of a distribution of cash.

Distributions of Rights

        Whenever we intend to distribute rights to purchase additional Class B shares, we will give prior notice to the depositary bank and we will assist the depositary bank in determining whether it is lawful and reasonably practicable to distribute rights to purchase additional ADSs to holders.

        The depositary bank will establish procedures to distribute rights to purchase additional ADSs to holders and to enable such holders to exercise such rights if it is lawful and reasonably practicable to make the rights available to holders of ADSs, and if we provide all of the documentation contemplated in the Deposit

Agreement (such as opinions to address the lawfulness of the transaction). You may have to pay fees, expenses, taxes and other governmental charges to subscribe for the new ADSs upon the exercise of your rights. The depositary bank is not obligated to establish procedures to facilitate the distribution and exercise by holders of rights to purchase new Class B shares other than in the form of ADSs.

        The depositary bank will not distribute the rights to you if:

    We do not timely request that the rights be distributed to you or we request that the rights not be distributed to you; or

    We fail to deliver satisfactory documents to the depositary bank; or

    It is not reasonably practicable to distribute the rights.

        The depositary bank will sell the rights that are not exercised or not distributed if such sale is lawful and reasonably practicable. The proceeds of such sale will be distributed to holders as in the case of a cash distribution. If the depositary bank is unable to sell the rights, it will allow the rights to lapse.

Elective Distributions

        Whenever we intend to distribute a dividend payable at the election of shareholders either in cash or in additional shares, we will give prior notice thereof to the depositary bank and will indicate whether we wish the elective distribution to be made available to you. In such case, we will assist the depositary bank in determining whether such distribution is lawful and reasonably practicable.

        The depositary bank will make the election available to you only if it is reasonably practicable and if we have provided all of the documentation contemplated in the Deposit Agreement. In such case, the depositary bank will establish procedures to enable you to elect to receive either cash or additional ADSs, in each case as described in the Deposit Agreement.

        If the election is not made available to you, you will receive either cash or additional ADSs, depending on what a shareholder in Spain would receive upon failing to make an election, as more fully described in the Deposit Agreement.

Other Distributions

        Whenever we intend to distribute property other than cash, Class B shares or rights to purchase additional Class B shares, we will notify the depositary bank in advance and will indicate whether we wish such distribution to be made to you. If so, we will assist the depositary bank in determining whether such distribution to holders is lawful and reasonably practicable.

        If it is reasonably practicable to distribute such property to you and if we provide all of the documentation contemplated in the Deposit Agreement, the depositary bank will distribute the property to the holders in a manner it deems practicable.

        The distribution will be made net of fees, expenses, taxes and governmental charges payable by holders under the terms of the Deposit Agreement. In order to pay such taxes and governmental charges, the depositary bank may sell all or a portion of the property received.

        The depositary bank will not distribute the property to you and will sell the property if:

    We do not request that the property be distributed to you or if we ask that the property not be distributed to you;

    We do not deliver satisfactory documents to the depositary bank; or

    The depositary bank determines that all or a portion of the distribution to you is not reasonably practicable.

        The proceeds of such a sale will be distributed to holders as in the case of a cash distribution.

Redemption

        Whenever we decide to redeem any of the securities on deposit with the custodian, we will notify the depositary bank in advance. If it is practicable and if we provide all of the documentation contemplated in the Deposit Agreement, the depositary bank will provide notice of the redemption to the holders.

        The custodian will be instructed to surrender the shares being redeemed against payment of the applicable redemption price. The depositary bank will convert the redemption funds received into U.S. dollars upon the terms of the Deposit Agreement and will establish procedures to enable holders to receive the net proceeds from the redemption upon surrender of their ADSs to the depositary bank. You may have to pay fees, expenses, taxes and other governmental charges upon the redemption of your ADSs. If less than all ADSs are being redeemed, the ADSs to be retired will be selected by lot or on a pro rata basis, as the depositary bank may determine.

Changes Affecting Class B shares

        The Class B shares held on deposit for your ADSs may change from time to time. For example, there may be a change in par value, a split-up, cancellation, consolidation or reclassification of such Class B shares or a recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets.

        If any such change were to occur, your ADSs would, to the extent permitted by law, represent the right to receive the property received or exchanged in respect of the Class B shares held on deposit. The depositary bank may in such circumstances deliver new ADSs to you, amend the Deposit Agreement, the ADRs and the applicable Registration Statement(s) on Form F-6, call for the exchange of your existing ADSs for new ADSs and take any other actions that are appropriate to reflect as to the ADSs the change affecting the Shares. If the depositary bank may not lawfully distribute such property to you, the depositary bank may sell such property and distribute the net proceeds to you as in the case of a cash distribution.

Issuance of ADSs upon Deposit of Class B shares

        The depositary bank may create ADSs on your behalf if you or your broker deposit Class B shares with the custodian. The depositary bank will deliver these ADSs to the person you indicate only after you pay any applicable issuance fees and any charges and taxes payable for the transfer of the Class B shares to the custodian. Your ability to deposit Class B shares and receive ADSs may be limited by U.S. and Spanish legal considerations applicable at the time of deposit.

        The issuance of ADSs may be delayed until the depositary bank or the custodian receives confirmation that all required approvals have been given and that the Class B shares have been duly transferred to the custodian. The depositary bank will only issue ADSs in whole numbers.

        When you make a deposit of Class B shares, you will be responsible for transferring good and valid title to the depositary bank. As such, you will be deemed to represent and warrant that:

    The Class B shares are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and legally obtained.

    All preemptive (and similar) rights, if any, with respect to such Class B shares have been validly waived or exercised.

    You are duly authorized to deposit the Class B shares.

    The Class B shares presented for deposit are free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, security interest, charge, mortgage or adverse claim, and are not, and the ADSs issuable upon such deposit will not be, "restricted securities" (as defined in the Deposit Agreement).

    The Class B shares presented for deposit have not been stripped of any rights or entitlements.

327


Table of Contents

        If any of the representations or warranties are incorrect in any way, we and the depositary bank may, at your cost and expense, take any and all actions necessary to correct the consequences of the misrepresentations.

Transfer, Combination and Split Up of ADRs

        As an ADR holder, you will be entitled to transfer, combine or split up your ADRs and the ADSs evidenced thereby. For transfers of ADRs, you will have to surrender the ADRs to be transferred to the depositary bank and also must:

    ensure that the surrendered ADR certificate is properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer;

    provide such proof of identity and genuineness of signatures as the depositary bank deems appropriate;

    provide any transfer stamps required by the State of New York or the United States; and

    pay all applicable fees, charges, expenses, taxes and other government charges payable by ADR holders pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, upon the transfer of ADRs.

        To have your ADRs either combined or split up, you must surrender the ADRs in question to the depositary bank with your request to have them combined or split up, and you must pay all applicable fees, charges and expenses payable by ADR holders, pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, upon a combination or split up of ADRs.

Withdrawal of Shares Upon Cancellation of ADSs

        As a holder, you will be entitled to present your ADSs to the depositary bank for cancellation and then receive the corresponding number of underlying Class B shares at the custodian's offices. Your ability to withdraw the Class B shares may be limited by U.S. and Spanish law considerations applicable at the time of withdrawal. In order to withdraw the Class B shares represented by your ADSs, you will be required to pay to the depositary bank the fees for cancellation of ADSs and any charges and taxes payable upon the transfer of the Class B shares being withdrawn. You assume the risk for delivery of all funds and securities upon withdrawal. Once canceled, the ADSs will not have any rights under the Deposit Agreement.

        If you hold ADSs registered in your name, the depositary bank may ask you to provide proof of identity and genuineness of any signature and such other documents as the depositary bank may deem appropriate before it will cancel your ADSs. The withdrawal of the Class B shares represented by your ADSs may be delayed until the depositary bank receives satisfactory evidence of compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Please keep in mind that the depositary bank will only accept ADSs for cancellation that represent a whole number of securities on deposit.

        You will have the right to withdraw the securities represented by your ADSs at any time except for:

    Temporary delays that may arise because (i) the transfer books for the Class B shares or ADSs are closed, or (ii) Class B shares are immobilized on account of a shareholders' meeting or a payment of dividends.

    Obligations to pay fees, taxes and similar charges.

    Restrictions imposed because of laws or regulations applicable to ADSs or the withdrawal of securities on deposit.

        The Deposit Agreement may not be modified to impair your right to withdraw the securities represented by your ADSs except to comply with mandatory provisions of law.

Voting Rights

        As a holder, you generally have the right under the Deposit Agreement to instruct the depositary bank to exercise the voting rights for the Class B shares represented by your ADSs. The voting rights of holders of Class B shares are described in "Description of Share Capital — Bylaws" of this prospectus.

        At our request, the depositary bank will distribute to you any notice of shareholders' meeting received from us together with information explaining how to instruct the depositary bank to exercise the voting rights of the securities represented by ADSs.

        If the depositary bank timely receives voting instructions from a holder of ADSs, it will endeavor to vote the securities (in person or by proxy) represented by the holder's ADSs in accordance with such voting instructions.

        Please note that the ability of the depositary bank to carry out voting instructions may be limited by practical and legal limitations and the terms of the securities on deposit. We cannot assure you that you will receive voting materials in time to enable you to return voting instructions to the depositary bank in a timely manner. If the Depositary does not receive instructions from a holder as of the ADS record date on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose, such holder shall be deemed, and the Depositary shall deem such holder, to have instructed the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by us to vote the deposited securities; provided, however, that no such discretionary proxy shall be given by the Depositary with respect to any matter to be voted upon as to which we inform the Depositary that (i) we do not wish such proxy to be given, (ii) substantial opposition exists, or (iii) the rights of holders of deposited securities will be adversely affected.

Fees and Charges

        As an ADS holder, you will be required to pay the following service fees to the depositary bank:

Service
  Fees
  Issuance of ADSs   Up to $0.05 per ADS issued
  Cancellation of ADSs   Up to $0.05 per ADS cancelled
  Distribution of cash dividends or other cash distributions   Up to $0.05 per ADS held
  Distribution of ADSs pursuant to stock dividends, free stock distributions or exercise of rights.    Up to $0.05 per ADS held
  Distribution of securities other than ADSs or rights to purchase additional ADSs   Up to $0.05 per ADS held
  Depositary Services   Up to $0.05 per ADS held on the applicable record date(s) established by the depositary bank

        As an ADS holder you will also be responsible to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the depositary bank and certain taxes and governmental charges such as:

    fees for the transfer and registration of Class B shares charged by the registrar and transfer agent for the Class B shares in Spain (i.e., upon deposit and withdrawal of Class B shares);

    expenses incurred for converting foreign currency into U.S. dollars;

    expenses for cable, telex and fax transmissions and for delivery of securities;

    taxes and duties upon the transfer of securities (i.e., when Class B shares are deposited or withdrawn from deposit); and

    fees and expenses incurred in connection with the delivery or servicing of Class B shares on deposit.

329


Table of Contents

        Depositary fees payable upon the issuance and cancellation of ADSs are typically paid to the depositary bank by the brokers (on behalf of their clients) receiving the newly issued ADSs from the depositary bank and by the brokers (on behalf of their clients) delivering the ADSs to the depositary bank for cancellation. The brokers in turn charge these fees to their clients. Depositary fees payable in connection with distributions of cash or securities to ADS holders and the depositary services fee are charged by the depositary bank to the holders of record of ADSs as of the applicable ADS record date.

        The Depositary fees payable for cash distributions are generally deducted from the cash being distributed. In the case of distributions other than cash (i.e., stock dividend, rights), the depositary bank charges the applicable fee to the ADS record date holders concurrent with the distribution. In the case of ADSs registered in the name of the investor (whether certificated or uncertificated in direct registration), the depositary bank sends invoices to the applicable record date ADS holders. In the case of ADSs held in brokerage and custodian accounts (via DTC), the depositary bank generally collects its fees through the systems provided by DTC (whose nominee is the registered holder of the ADSs held in DTC) from the brokers and custodians holding ADSs in their DTC accounts. The brokers and custodians who hold their clients' ADSs in DTC accounts in turn charge their clients' accounts the amount of the fees paid to the depositary banks.

        In the event of refusal to pay the depositary fees, the depositary bank may, under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, refuse the requested service until payment is received or may set off the amount of the depositary fees from any distribution to be made to the ADS holder.

        Note that the fees and charges you may be required to pay may vary over time and may be changed by us and by the depositary bank. You will receive prior notice of such changes.

        The depositary bank may reimburse us for certain expenses incurred by us in respect of the ADR program established pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, by making available a portion of the Depositary fees charged in respect of the ADR program or otherwise, upon such terms and conditions as the Company and the Depositary may agree from time to time.

Amendments and Termination

        We may agree with the depositary bank to modify the Deposit Agreement at any time without your consent. We undertake to give holders 30 days' prior notice of any modifications that would materially prejudice any of their substantial rights under the Deposit Agreement. We will not consider to be materially prejudicial to your substantial rights any modifications or supplements that are reasonably necessary for the ADSs to be registered under the Securities Act or to be eligible for book-entry settlement, in each case without imposing or increasing the fees and charges you are required to pay. In addition, we may not be able to provide you with prior notice of any modifications or supplements that are required to accommodate compliance with applicable provisions of law.

        You will be bound by the modifications to the Deposit Agreement if you continue to hold your ADSs after the modifications to the Deposit Agreement become effective. The Deposit Agreement cannot be amended to prevent you from withdrawing the Class B shares represented by your ADSs (except as permitted by law).

        We have the right to direct the depositary bank to terminate the Deposit Agreement. Similarly, the depositary bank may in certain circumstances on its own initiative terminate the Deposit Agreement. In either case, the depositary bank must give notice to the holders at least 30 days before termination. Until termination, your rights under the Deposit Agreement will be unaffected.

        After termination, the depositary bank will continue to collect distributions received (but will not distribute any such property until you request the cancellation of your ADSs) and may sell the securities held on deposit. After the sale, the depositary bank will hold the proceeds from such sale and any other funds then held for the holders of ADSs in a non-interest bearing account. At that point, the depositary bank will have no further obligations to holders other than to account for the funds then held for the holders of ADSs still outstanding (after deduction of applicable fees, taxes and expenses).

Table of Contents

Books of Depositary

        The depositary bank will maintain ADS holder records at its depositary office. You may inspect such records at such office during regular business hours but solely for the purpose of communicating with other holders in the interest of business matters relating to the ADSs and the Deposit Agreement.

        The depositary bank will maintain in New York facilities to record and process the issuance, cancellation, combination, split-up and transfer of ADSs. These facilities may be closed from time to time, to the extent not prohibited by law.

Limitations on Obligations and Liabilities

        The Deposit Agreement limits our obligations and the depositary bank's obligations to you. Please note the following:

    We and the depositary bank are obligated only to take the actions specifically stated in the Deposit Agreement without negligence or bad faith.

    The depositary bank disclaims any liability for any failure to carry out voting instructions, for any manner in which a vote is cast or for the effect of any vote, provided it acts in good faith and in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement.

    The depositary bank disclaims any liability for any failure to determine the lawfulness or practicality of any action, for the content of any document forwarded to you on our behalf or for the accuracy of any translation of such a document, for the investment risks associated with investing in Class B shares, for the validity or worth of the Class B shares, for any tax consequences that result from the ownership of ADSs, for the credit-worthiness of any third party, for allowing any rights to lapse under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, for the timeliness of any of our notices or for our failure to give notice.

    We and the depositary bank will not be obligated to perform any act that is inconsistent with the terms of the Deposit Agreement.

    We and the depositary bank disclaim any liability if we or the depositary bank are prevented or forbidden from or subject to any civil or criminal penalty or restraint on account of, or delayed in, doing or performing any act or thing required by the terms of the Deposit Agreement, by reason of any provision, present or future of any law or regulation, or by reason of present or future provision of any provision of our Bylaws, or any provision of or governing the securities on deposit, or by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstances beyond our control.

    We and the depositary bank disclaim any liability by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for the Deposit Agreement or in our Bylaws or in any provisions of or governing the securities on deposit.

    We and the depositary bank further disclaim any liability for any action or inaction in reliance on the advice or information received from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting Shares for deposit, any holder of ADSs or authorized representatives thereof, or any other person believed by either of us in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information.

    We and the depositary bank also disclaim liability for the inability by a holder to benefit from any distribution, offering, right or other benefit that is made available to holders of Class B shares but is not, under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, made available to you.

    We and the depositary bank may rely without any liability upon any written notice, request or other document believed to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper parties.

    We and the depositary bank also disclaim liability for any consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of the Deposit Agreement.

    No disclaimer of any Securities Act liability is intended by any provision of the Deposit Agreement.

Pre-Release Transactions

        Subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, the depositary bank may issue to broker/dealers ADSs before receiving a deposit of Class B shares. These transactions are commonly referred to as "pre-release transactions" and are entered into between the depositary bank and the applicable broker/dealer. The Deposit Agreement limits the aggregate size of pre-release transactions (not to exceed 30% of the shares on deposit in the aggregate) and imposes a number of conditions on such transactions (i.e., the need to receive collateral, the type of collateral required, the representations required from brokers, etc.). The depositary bank may retain the compensation received from the pre-release transactions.

Taxes

        You will be responsible for the taxes and other governmental charges payable on the ADSs and the securities represented by the ADSs. We, the depositary bank and the custodian may deduct from any distribution the taxes and governmental charges payable by holders and may sell any and all property on deposit to pay the taxes and governmental charges payable by holders. You will be liable for any deficiency if the sale proceeds do not cover the taxes that are due.

        The depositary bank may refuse to issue ADSs, to deliver, transfer, split and combine ADRs or to release securities on deposit until all taxes and charges are paid by the applicable holder. The depositary bank and the custodian may take reasonable administrative actions to obtain tax refunds and reduced tax withholding for any distributions on your behalf. However, you may be required to provide to the depositary bank and to the custodian proof of taxpayer status and residence and such other information as the depositary bank and the custodian may require to fulfill legal obligations. You are required to indemnify us, the depositary bank and the custodian for any claims with respect to taxes based on any tax benefit obtained for you.

Foreign Currency Conversion

        The depositary bank will arrange for the conversion of all foreign currency received into U.S. dollars if such conversion is practical, and it will distribute the U.S. dollars in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement. You may have to pay fees and expenses incurred in converting foreign currency, such as fees and expenses incurred in complying with currency exchange controls and other governmental requirements.

        If the conversion of foreign currency is not practical or lawful, or if any required approvals are denied or not obtainable at a reasonable cost or within a reasonable period, the depositary bank may take the following actions in its discretion:

    Convert the foreign currency to the extent practical and lawful and distribute the U.S. dollars to the holders for whom the conversion and distribution is lawful and practical.

    Distribute the foreign currency to holders for whom the distribution is lawful and practical.

    Hold the foreign currency (without liability for interest) for the applicable holders.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

        Upon the completion of the offering, we will have 636,026,358 outstanding Class B shares (including in the form of ADSs) representing approximately 88% of our issued and outstanding Class A shares and Class B shares, in the aggregate. Holders of Class A shares have a right to convert such shares into an aggregate of 84,536,332 Class B shares, which they may exercise until December 31, 2017. All of the Class B shares (including in the form of ADSs) sold in the offering will be freely transferable by persons other than our affiliates without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Sales of substantial amounts of our Class B shares and ADSs in the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our Class B shares and ADSs. In addition, immediately following the offering, our controlling shareholder, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A., will beneficially own Class A shares and Class B shares. Prior to the offering, there has been no public market in the United States for our Class B shares and ADSs, and, while we have been approved to list our ADSs on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, subject to official notice of issuance, we cannot assure you that a regular trading market will develop in our Class B shares and ADSs in the United States.

TAXATION

        The following is a summary of the material Spanish and U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of the ownership and disposition of Class B shares or ADSs. This summary is based upon Spanish tax laws as referred to below and U.S. tax laws (including the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, rulings, judicial decisions and administrative pronouncements), and the Convention Between the United States of America and the Kingdom of Spain for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income, signed February 22, 1990, (the "Treaty"), all in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to changes in wording or administrative or judicial interpretation occurring after the date hereof, possibly with retroactive effect. In addition, the summary is based in part on representations of the Depositary and assumes that each obligation provided for in or otherwise contemplated by the Deposit Agreement or any other related agreements will be performed in accordance with its terms. To the extent that the following discussion relates to matters of Spanish tax law, it represents the opinion of DLA Piper Spain, S.L.U., our Spanish counsel, and to the extent that the discussion relates to matters of U.S. federal income tax law, it represents the opinion of DLA Piper LLP (US), our U.S. counsel.

        As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of one or more Class B shares or ADSs:

    (a)
    that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, one of the following:

    (i)
    a citizen or resident of the United States;

    (ii)
    a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof; or

    (iii)
    an estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source;

    (b)
    that holds the Class B shares or ADSs as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

    (c)
    that owns, directly, indirectly or by attribution, less than 10% of the share capital or voting stock of Abengoa; and

    (d)
    whose holding is not effectively connected with a permanent establishment in Spain.

        This summary does not address all of the tax considerations that may apply to holders that are subject to special tax rules, such as U.S. expatriates, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, certain financial institutions, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, dealers and certain traders in securities, persons holding Class B shares or ADSs as part of a straddle, hedging, conversion or other integrated transaction, persons who acquired their Class B shares or ADSs pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation, partnerships or other entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes or persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Such holders may be subject to U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those set forth below.

        In addition, this summary does not address the Spanish tax consequences applicable to "look through" entities (such as trusts or estates) that may be subject to the tax regime applicable to such non-Spanish tax resident entities under the Spanish NRIT.

        If a partnership holds Class B shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A partnership, or partner in a partnership, that holds Class B shares or ADSs is urged to consult its own tax advisor regarding the specific tax consequences of owning and disposing of the Class B shares or ADSs.

        The U.S. Treasury has expressed concerns that parties to whom American depositary shares are released before shares are delivered to the depositary ("pre-release"), or intermediaries in the chain of ownership between holders and the issuer of the security underlying the American depositary shares, may be taking

334


Table of Contents

actions that are inconsistent with the claiming of foreign tax credits by U.S. Holders of American depositary shares. Such actions would also be inconsistent with the claiming of the reduced rate of tax applicable to dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders. Accordingly, the availability of foreign tax credits to U.S. Holders of ADSs and the reduced tax rate for dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders of ADSs, each as described below, could be affected by actions taken by such parties or intermediaries.

        For purposes of the Treaty and U.S. federal income tax, U.S. Holders of ADSs will generally be treated as owners of the underlying Class B shares represented by such ADSs. Accordingly, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, no gain or loss will be recognized if a U.S. Holder exchanges ADSs for the underlying Class B shares represented by those ADSs.

        This discussion assumes that Abengoa is not, and will not become, a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC"), for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as discussed below under "— U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — Passive foreign investment company rules."

        Potential investors in Class B shares or ADSs should consult their own tax advisors concerning the specific Spanish and U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of Class B shares or ADSs in light of their particular situations as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction. In particular, potential investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors concerning whether they are eligible for benefits under the Treaty.

        On January 14, 2013, the U.S. Ambassador to Spain and the Spanish Minister of Finance and Public Administration signed a new Protocol amending the Treaty (the "2013 Protocol"). Among other things, the 2013 Protocol amends the articles of the Treaty related to dividends, capital gains, interest and limitation on benefits. The 2013 Protocol will enter into force three months after the United States and Spain notify each other that their required internal procedures have been complied with. If the 2013 Protocol goes into effect, the capital gains on disposal of the Class B shares and ADSs will not be taxable in Spain regardless of the size of the U.S. Holder's stake in our capital. Potential investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors concerning whether the 2013 Protocol has been entered into force and, if so, the tax implications thereof and the applicability of the Treaty under the amended limitation on benefits clause.

Spanish Tax Considerations

        This information has been prepared in accordance with the following Spanish tax legislation in force at the date of this prospectus, including:

    the Second Additional Provision of Law 13/1985, of May 25, on investment ratios, own funds and information obligations of financial intermediaries as amended by, among others, Law 19/2003 of July 4 on legal rules governing foreign financial transactions and capital movements and various money laundering prevention measures, Law 23/2005, dated November 18, 2005 on certain tax measures to promote productivity and Law 4/2008 of December 23, which abolishes Net Wealth Tax, provides for a monthly Value Added Tax refund system and introduces other amendments to Spanish tax legislation and Law 6/2011, of April 11, which modifies Law 13/1985, Law 24/1988, dated July 28, on the Securities Exchange, and Royal Decree 1298/1986 of June 28, about the adaptation of the current law about financial entities to the law of the European Union, ("Law 13/1985"), as well as Royal Decree 1065/2007, of July 27, as amended by Royal Decree 1145/2011, of July 29 ("Royal Decree 1145/2011"); and

    the Royal Legislative Decree 5/2004, of March 5, promulgating the Consolidated Text of the NRIT Law along with Law 19/1991, dated June 6, 1991 on Wealth Tax, as amended by Law 4/2008, of December 23, which abolishes Wealth Tax, provides for a monthly Value Added Tax refund system and introduces other amendments to Spanish legislation and by Royal Decree-law 13/2011, of September 16, and the Law 16/ 2012, of December 27, which re-establish temporarily Wealth Tax,

      and Royal Decree 1776/2004, of July 30, promulgating the NRIT Regulations and Law 29/1987, of December 18, on Inheritance and Gift Tax.

        The acquisition and transfer of the Class B shares will be exempt from indirect taxes in Spain, i.e., exempt from Transfer Tax and Stamp Duty, in accordance with the Consolidated Text of such tax promulgated by Royal Legislative Decree 1/1993, of September 24, and exempt from Value Added Tax, in accordance with Law 37/1992, of December 28, regulating such tax.

Spanish tax considerations concerning the Class B shares and ADSs

        Ownership of the Class B shares by U.S. Holders will not in itself create the existence of a permanent establishment in Spain.

Taxation of dividends

        Under Spanish law, dividends paid by Abengoa to U.S. Holders of Class B shares or ADSs are subject to Spanish NRIT, withheld at source on the gross amount of dividends, currently at a 21% tax rate. For these purposes, upon distribution of the dividend, Abengoa or its paying agent will withhold an amount equal to the tax due according to the rules set forth above (i.e., applying the current withholding tax rate of 21%).

        If the depositary (as defined for Spanish law purposes) of the U.S. Holder is resident, domiciled or represented in Spain and it provides timely evidence (i.e. a certificate from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") stating that, to the best knowledge of the IRS, the U.S. Holder is resident of the United States within the meaning of the Treaty and entitled to its benefits (currently, IRS Form 6166)) of the U.S. Holder's right to obtain the Treaty-reduced rate (currently 15%), it will immediately receive the excess amount withheld. For these purposes, the relevant certificate of residence must be provided before the tenth day following the end of the month in which the dividends were paid. The tax residence certificate is valid only for a period of one year from the date of issuance.

        If the certificate referred to in the above paragraph is not provided within said term but you qualify for the reduced tax rate provided for in the Treaty, you may afterwards obtain a refund of the amount withheld in excess of the rate provided for in the Treaty from the Spanish tax authorities following the refund procedure described below under "— Spanish refund procedure".

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, Spanish NRIT provides an exemption for the first €1,500 of any dividends received annually by U.S. tax resident individuals who do not operate through a permanent establishment in Spain or through a tax haven. However, Spanish withholding tax will nevertheless be required to be deducted from the gross amount of the dividends paid. U.S. tax resident individuals will have to seek a refund of such withholding taxes from the Spanish tax authorities following the refund procedure described below under "— Spanish refund procedure."

        Spanish refund procedure

        According to Spanish Regulations on NRIT (Royal Decree 1776/2004, dated July 30, and an Order dated December 17, 2010), a refund for the amount withheld in excess of the Treaty-reduced rate, and in the case of qualifying individuals, a refund for the amount withheld on the first €1,500 of dividends received in a single year can be obtained from the relevant Spanish tax authorities.

        U.S. Holders may claim the amount withheld from the Spanish Treasury within the first four years by filing with the Spanish tax authorities beginning in February of the following year in which the amount has been withheld (i) the relevant Spanish tax form (210 form) along with, (ii) a certificate of residency issued by the IRS, among other documents.

        U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding refund procedures and any U.S. tax implications thereof.

Taxation of capital gains

        The rate applicable to capital gains derived from the transfer of Class B shares or ADSs of U.S. Holders is currently 21% under Spanish law.

        However, under the Treaty, capital gains realized by U.S. Holders arising from the disposition of Class B shares or ADSs will not be taxed in Spain, provided that the seller has not maintained a direct or indirect holding of 25% or more in our capital during the 12 months preceding the disposition of the Class B shares or ADSs. U.S. Holders will be required to establish that they are entitled to the exemption from tax under the Treaty by providing to the relevant Spanish tax authorities a Spanish tax form (Form 210) together with a certificate of tax residence issued by the IRS stating that to the best knowledge of the IRS, such U.S. Holder is a U.S. resident within the meaning of the Treaty (currently, IRS Form 6166). This certificate is generally valid for a period of one year from the date of issuance.

        Additionally, capital gains derived from the transfer of Class B shares in an official Spanish secondary stock market by a U.S. Holder will be exempt from taxation in Spain. For purposes of this exemption, a certificate of tax residence shall be provided in the terms described in the previous paragraph.

Wealth Tax

        In accordance with Royal Decree-Law 13/2011, dated September 16, 2011 and Law 19/1991, dated June 6, 1991, U.S. tax resident individuals who held Class B shares or ADSs on December 31, 2012 are subject to Spanish Wealth Tax (Impuesto sobre el Patrimonio) at a rate varying from 0.2% and 2.5% of the average market value of Class B shares or ADSs during the last quarter of the year. The Spanish Parliament has approved Law 16/2012 on certain tax measures (Ley 16/2012, de 27 de diciembre, por la que se adoptan diversas medidas tributarias dirigidas a la consolidación de las finanzas públicas y al impulso de la actividad económica) ("Law 16/2012"), according to which Wealth Tax will also be restored for tax period 2013.

        U.S. Holders that are entities are not subject to Wealth Tax.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, Spanish Regulations on Wealth Tax provides for an exemption of first €700,000 of taxable base.

        U.S. Holders who are individuals holding Class B shares or ADSs should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the applicability of the Spanish Wealth Tax.

Inheritance and Gift Tax

        Transfers of Class B shares or ADSs on death and by gift to individuals are subject to Spanish inheritance and gift taxes (Impuesto sobre Sucesiones y Donaciones), regardless of the residence of the heir or beneficiary. The applicable tax rate, after applying relevant personal, family and wealth factors ranges from between 7.65% and 81.6%. While inheritance and gift taxes are generally state taxes, certain autonomous communities have the right to establish their own tax rates and deductions and to control the management and settlement of such taxes.

        Gifts granted to corporations non-resident in Spain for tax purposes are subject to NRIT currently at a 21% tax rate on the fair market value of the Class B shares or ADSs. If the donee is a United States tax resident corporation, the exemptions available under the Treaty will be applicable.

        U.S. Holders holding Class B shares or ADSs should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the specific Spanish tax consequences of the disposition or acquisition of our Class B shares or ADSs by gift or bequest upon death.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

Taxation of dividends from the Class B shares or ADSs

        Distributions received by a U.S. Holder on Class B shares or ADSs, including the amount of any Spanish taxes withheld, other than certain pro rata distributions of Class B shares to all shareholders (including ADS holders), will constitute foreign-source dividend income to the extent paid out of Abengoa's current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). Because Abengoa does not maintain calculations of its earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles it is expected that distributions will be reported to U.S. Holders as dividends. The amount of the dividend a U.S. Holder will be required to include in income will equal the U.S. dollar value of the euros received, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the payment is received by the Depositary (in the case of ADSs) or by the U.S. Holder (in the case of Class B shares), regardless of whether the payment is converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt. If the dividend is converted to U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. Holder should not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. A U.S. Holder may have foreign currency gain or loss if the dividend is converted into U.S. dollars after the date of its receipt. If a U.S. Holder realizes gain or loss on a sale or other disposition of euros, it will be U.S.-source ordinary income or loss. Corporate U.S. Holders will not be entitled to claim the dividends-received deduction with respect to dividends paid by Abengoa. Subject to certain exceptions for short-term and hedged positions and the discussion above regarding concerns expressed by the U.S. Treasury, the U.S. dollar amount of dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders of Class B shares or ADSs will be subject to taxation at rates lower than those applicable to other ordinary income if the dividends are "qualified dividends." Distributions received by a U.S. Holder on Class B shares or ADSs will be qualified dividends if (i) Abengoa is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States that the IRS has approved for purposes of the qualified dividend rules and (ii) Abengoa was not, for the year prior to the year in which the dividends are paid, and is not, for the year in which the dividends are paid, a PFIC. Abengoa expects to be eligible for the benefits of the comprehensive income tax treaty between the United States and Spain, which has been approved by the IRS for the purposes of the qualified dividend rules. Further, Abengoa believes that it was not a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to its 2012 taxable year, it does not expect to be a PFIC for its current taxable year, and it does not anticipate becoming a PFIC in the foreseeable future. See " — Passive foreign investment company rules" below. Non-corporate U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors to determine whether they are subject to any special rules that limit their ability to be taxed at these favorable rates.

        Certain pro rata distributions of Class B shares to all shareholders (including ADS holders) are not generally subject to tax.

        Spanish income taxes withheld from dividends on Class B shares or ADSs at a rate not exceeding the applicable rate under the Treaty will be creditable against a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, subject to applicable restrictions and limitations that may vary depending upon the U.S. Holder's circumstances and the discussion above regarding concerns expressed by the U.S. Treasury. Spanish taxes that are refundable or withheld in excess of the rate applicable under the Treaty will not be eligible for credit against a U.S. Holder's federal income tax liability. See "— Spanish Tax Considerations — Spanish tax considerations concerning the Class B shares and ADSs — Taxation of dividends" above for a discussion of how to obtain the applicable Treaty rate. Instead of claiming a credit, a U.S. Holder may elect to deduct foreign taxes (including the Spanish taxes) in computing its taxable income, subject to generally applicable limitations. An election to deduct foreign taxes (instead of claiming foreign tax credits) applies to all taxes paid or accrued in the taxable year to foreign countries and possessions of the United States. The limitations on foreign taxes eligible for credit are calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. The rules governing foreign tax credits are complex. Therefore, U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of foreign tax credits in their particular circumstances.

Taxation upon sale or other disposition of Class B shares or ADSs

        A U.S. Holder will recognize U.S.-source capital gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of Class B shares or ADSs, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held such Class B shares or ADSs for more than one year. The amount of the U.S. Holder's gain or loss will be equal to the difference between such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Class B shares or ADSs sold or otherwise disposed of and the amount realized on the sale or other disposition, in each case as determined in U.S. dollars. Net long-term capital gain recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders will be taxed at a lower rate than the rate applicable to ordinary income. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

        As discussed under "— Spanish Tax Considerations — Spanish tax considerations concerning the Class B shares and ADSs — Taxation of capital gains" above, gain realized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition of Class B shares or ADSs will be exempt from Spanish tax on capital gains under the Treaty. If a U.S. Holder is eligible for the exemption from Spanish tax on capital gains but does not follow appropriate procedures for obtaining the exemption, it will not be entitled to credit the amount of Spanish tax on capital gains paid against its U.S. federal income tax liability.

Passive foreign investment company rules

        Abengoa believes that it was not a PFIC in its most recent taxable year and will not be a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for its current taxable year, and Abengoa does not expect to become a PFIC in the foreseeable future. However, because PFIC status depends upon the composition of a company's income and assets and the market value of its assets (including, among others, less than 25% owned equity investments) from time to time, there can be no assurance that Abengoa will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. If Abengoa were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held a Class B share or ADS, certain adverse tax consequences could apply to the U.S. Holder.

        If Abengoa were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held a Class B share or ADS, gain recognized by a U.S. Holder on a sale or other disposition of the Class B share or ADS would be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for the Class B share or ADS. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other disposition and to any year before Abengoa became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect in that year for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge would be imposed on the resulting tax liability. The same treatment would apply to any distribution in respect of Class B shares or ADSs to the extent it exceeds 125% of the average of the annual distributions on Class B shares or ADSs received by the U.S. Holder during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder's holding period, whichever is shorter. Certain elections may be available that would result in alternative treatments (such as mark-to-market treatment) of the Class B shares or ADSs.

        In addition, if Abengoa were treated as a PFIC in a taxable year in which it pays a dividend or in the prior taxable year, the favorable dividend rate discussed above with respect to dividends paid to certain non-corporate U.S. Holders would not apply.

Medicare Tax

        Certain U.S. Holders, including individuals, estates and certain trusts, will be subject to an additional 3.8% Medicare tax on, among other things, dividends and capital gains from the sale or other disposition of equity interests. For individuals, the additional Medicare tax applies to the lesser of (i) "net investment income" or (ii) the excess of modified adjusted gross income over $200,000 ($250,000 if married and filing jointly or $125,000 if married and filing separately). "Net investment income" includes the taxpayer's gross investment income reduced by deductions that are allocable to such income. Potential investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the implications of the additional Medicare tax resulting from their ownership and disposition of Class B shares or ADSs.

Information reporting and backup withholding

        Payments of dividends and sales proceeds that are made within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries generally are subject to information reporting and to backup withholding unless the U.S. Holder is a corporation or other exempt recipient or, in the case of backup withholding, the U.S. Holder provides a correct taxpayer identification number and certifies that it is not subject to backup withholding. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

        Certain U.S. Holders who are individuals may be required to report information relating to their ownership of an interest in certain foreign financial assets, including stock and securities of a non-U.S. person, subject to exceptions (including an exception for stock and securities held through a U.S. financial institution). Other U.S. Holders may be subject to similar rules in the future. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers regarding their reporting obligations with respect to the Class B shares or ADSs.

        The underwriters may elect to take delivery of all or a portion of the Class B shares purchased in the offering in the form of ADSs. Offers and sales of Class B shares and ADSs in the offering in the United States will be made by the underwriters through their U.S. broker-dealer affiliates, which must be registered with the SEC under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

        In consideration of the agreement by the underwriters to purchase the Class B shares, including in the form of ADSs, pursuant to the offering we will pay to the underwriters selling, underwriting and management commissions totaling       % of the aggregate offering price of the Class B shares sold in such offering (including any Class B shares purchased by the underwriters to cover over-allotments).

        The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the Class B shares (including in the form of ADSs) included in the offering are subject to approval of legal matters by counsel and to other conditions. The underwriters in the offering are obligated to purchase all the Class B shares (including in the form of ADSs) in the offering (other than those covered by the over-allotment option described below) if they purchase any of the Class B shares or ADSs in the offering.

        Class B shares and ADSs sold by the underwriters in the offering to the public will initially be offered at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus. Any Class B shares or ADSs sold by the underwriters in the offering to securities dealers may be sold at a discount from the initial public offering price not to exceed €             or $             per Class B share and ADS, respectively. If all of the Class B shares and ADSs are not sold in the offering at the initial offering price, the representatives may change the public offering price and other selling terms. The representatives have advised us that the underwriters do not intend to make sales to discretionary accounts.

        The underwriters in the offering may sell more Class B shares (including in the form of ADSs) than the total number set forth in the table above. In order to allow the underwriters in the offering to cover any such over-allotments, we have granted to the underwriters in the offering an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to 27,375,000 additional Class B shares (the "over-allotment shares") at the public offering price less the underwriting commissions described above. The representatives named above, on behalf of the underwriters in the offering, may exercise the option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, in connection with this offering. To the extent the option is exercised, each underwriter in the offering must purchase a number of over-allotment shares (in the form of Class B shares or ADSs) approximately proportionate to that underwriter's initial purchase commitment. Any over-allotment

Table of Contents

shares (in the form of Class B shares or ADSs) issued or sold under the option will be issued and sold on the same terms and conditions as the other Class B shares and ADSs that are the subject of the offering.

        The underwriters have entered into agreements in which they agree to restrictions on where and to whom they and any dealer purchasing from them may offer the Class B shares or ADSs.

        No action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction, except in the United States, that would permit a public offering of the Class B shares or ADSs, or the possession, circulation or distribution of a prospectus or any other material relating to us or the Class B shares or ADSs, where action for that purpose is required.

        We, our controlling shareholders, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. and its wholly owned subsidiary Finarpisa, S.A., our officers and all but one of our directors listed in the "Management" section have agreed that, for a period commencing on the date of this prospectus and ending 180 days after the date of admission to listing of our ADSs on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, we and they will not, without the prior written consent of the representatives of the underwriters named above and subject to certain exceptions, dispose of or hedge any of our Class A shares, Class B shares or ADSs, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for our Class A shares, Class B shares or ADSs. The representatives in their sole discretion may release any of the securities subject to these lock-up agreements at any time without notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) during the last 17 days of the 180-day restricted period, we issue an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to our company occurs; or (ii) prior to the expiration of the 180-day restricted period, we announce that we will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 180-day restricted period, the restrictions described above shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. One of our major shareholders, First Reserve, and the director appointed by First Reserve have not entered into lock-up agreements with the underwriters and are therefore not prohibited by the underwriting arrangements for the offering from selling Class A shares, Class B shares or ADSs from time to time, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

        We have been approved to list our ADSs on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "ABGB" subject to official notice of issuance, and we expect our ADSs to commence trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on a when-issued basis on the New York trading day immediately following the date of this prospectus. Our Class B shares are listed on each of the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchanges and traded through the Automated Quotation System of the Spanish Stock Exchanges under the symbol "ABG.P." The closing price of our Class B shares on October 3, 2013 was €2.19 per Class B share (or $14.82 per ADS based on the U.S. dollar: euro exchange rate on September 27, 2013). We expect the new Class B shares sold in the offering to be approved for listing on each of the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchanges and trading through the Automated Quotation System of the Spanish Stock Exchanges on the third Madrid trading day immediately following the date of this prospectus. It is anticipated that the initial public offering price per Class B share will be based on the closing price of the Class B shares on the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchanges on the date of pricing. The price per ADS will be the approximate U.S. dollar equivalent based on the prevailing exchange rate on such date.

        The following table shows the underwriting fees and commissions that we are to pay to the underwriters in connection with the offering. These amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option.

        We have agreed to reimburse the underwriters for expenses relating to the clearance of this offering with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, in an amount not to exceed $100,000.

        In order to facilitate the offering of the Class B shares, Citigroup Global Markets Limited, as stabilization agent, for the account of the underwriters, may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Class B shares and ADS. Specifically, the underwriters may sell more shares than they are obligated to purchase under the underwriting agreement, creating a short position. A short sale is covered if the short position is no greater than the number of shares available for purchase by the underwriters under the option to purchase additional Class B shares. The underwriters can close out a covered short sale by exercising the over-allotment option or purchasing Class B shares and ADSs in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out a covered short sale, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the open market price of shares compared to the price available under the over-allotment option. The underwriters may also sell shares in excess of the option to purchase additional Class B shares, creating a naked short position. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Class B shares and ADSs in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. As an additional means of facilitating this offering, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, Class B shares and ADSs in the open market to stabilize the price of the Class B shares and ADSs. The underwriting syndicate also may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the Class B shares and ADSs in the offering, if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed Class B shares and ADSs to cover syndicate short positions or to stabilize the price of the Class B shares and ADS. These activities may raise or maintain the market price of the Class B shares and ADSs above independent market levels or prevent or retard a decline in the market price of the Class B shares and ADSs. These activities may be undertaken on the Spanish Stock Exchanges, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise. If the stabilization agent commences any of these transactions, it may discontinue them at any time.

        Our controlling shareholder, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A., has indicated its intention to support the offering and has indicated its intention to subscribe for the purchase of €63 million of Class B shares in this offering. Any Class B shares that are purchased by Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. would be purchased outside of the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.

        We expect that the closing date of the offering, or fecha de operación bursátil, will be on or about the Madrid trading day immediately following the date of this prospectus. Under Spanish law, on the closing date, purchasers become unconditionally obligated to pay for, and entitled to delivery of, securities purchased in the offering. In order to expedite the registration of the Class B shares offered in the offering, it is expected that the representatives, on behalf of the final purchasers of the Class B shares, will subscribe for the Class B shares offered in the offering on the closing date. Payment for such Class B shares is expected to be made to us on such date, and the Class B shares offered in the offering will come into existence once registered with the Commercial Registry of Seville and recorded in book-entry form in the records of Sociedad de Gestión de los Sistemas de Registro, Compensación y Liquidación de Valores, S.A. ("Iberclear"). We expect that the Class B shares sold in the offering will be delivered to purchasers against payment in euros on or about                                        , 2013 through the facilities of Iberclear. We expect that the ADSs sold in the offering will be delivered to purchasers against payment in U.S. dollars on or about                           , 2013.

        The underwriters or their respective affiliates from time to time have provided in the past, and may provide in the future one or more investment banking, financial advisory, broker dealer or commercial banking services to us and our affiliates in the ordinary course of business for which they have received, or may receive, customary fees and commissions. In addition, all of the underwriters except Canaccord Genuity Inc. are lenders (either directly or through their respective affiliates) under certain of our facilities and other credit arrangements, including in certain cases under our Second Swedish Credit Agreement and our Swedish Export Buyer Credit Agreement, which we intend to partially prepay, as described in "Use of Proceeds". In their capacity as lenders, such underwriters may, in the future, seek a reduction of a loan

commitment to us, or impose incremental pricing or collateral requirements with respect to such facilities or credit arrangements, in the ordinary course of business. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Indebtedness." In addition, the underwriters who are lenders to us and their affiliates routinely hedge their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the Securities offered hereby. Any such short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Securities. Moreover, in the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (which may include bank loans and/or credit default swaps) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such investment and securities activities may involve our securities and instruments.

EXPERTS

        Our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 contained in this prospectus have been audited by Deloitte, S.L., an independent registered public accounting firm, as set forth in their report thereon appearing elsewhere in this prospectus (which contains an explanatory paragraph relating to the retrospective change to the method of accounting for IFRIC 12 in 2012 and 2011 from an accounting principle that was acceptable to one that is preferable, to the retrospective change to the amounts previously reported for 2012, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with IFRS 5 — Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations due to the sale of the subsidiary Befesa and to the retrospective change to the amounts previously reported for 2012 due to the adoption of IFRS 10 — Consolidated Financial Statements and IFRS 11 — Joint Arrangements. As allowed by the transition guidance in IFRS 10 — Consolidated Financial Statements and 11 — Joint Arrangements, amounts previously reported for 2011 and 2010 have not been retrospectively adjusted. Such changes are described in Note 2.1.1, Note 2.1.2 and Note 2.1.3 to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, respectively), and are included in reliance upon such report given on the authority of such firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

        Our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 contained in this prospectus have been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L., an independent registered public accounting firm, as set forth in their report thereon appearing elsewhere in this prospectus (which contains an explanatory paragraph relating to the change in the manner for which Abengoa, S.A. accounts for its solar-thermal plants in Spain and to the sale of its ownership interest in the subsidiary Befesa, as discussed in Note 2.1.1 and Note 2.1.2 to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, respectively), and are included in reliance upon such report given on the authority of such firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

        At the proposal of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee, our General Shareholders' Meeting held on April 1, 2012 approved the appointment of Deloitte, S.L. as our independent registered public accounting firm for our consolidated group and for our subsidiaries for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014. As a consequence, PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L., was dismissed as independent registered public accounting firm of the Company.

        The report of PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L. on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

        During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and through April 1, 2012 there were no disagreements with PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L. on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures that, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L., would have caused PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L. to make reference to the matter in their report on the financial statements for such years.

        During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and through April 1, 2012, there have been no reportable events (as defined in Regulation S-K 304(a)(1)(v)).

Table of Contents

        From April 1, 2012, PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L. was engaged solely to issue an audit report on our Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, included in this prospectus.

        We have provided a copy of this disclosure to PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L. and have requested that PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores, S.L. furnish us with a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of that letter, dated October 4, 2013, is filed as Exhibit 23.3 to this prospectus.

        During the two most recent fiscal years prior to the appointment of Deloitte, S.L. as independent registered public accounting firm, we did not consult with Deloitte, S.L. regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to us or oral advice was provided that Deloitte, S.L. concluded was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(I)(v) of Regulation S-K.


WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

        We have filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-1, including relevant exhibits and schedules, under the Securities Act covering the Class B shares and ADSs to be sold in this offering. A related registration statement on Form F-6 is being filed to register the issuance of the ADSs. This prospectus, which constitutes a part of the registration statement on Form F-1, summarizes material provisions of contracts and other documents that we refer to in the prospectus. Since this prospectus does not contain all of the information contained in the registration statement, you should read the registration statement on Form F-1 and its exhibits and schedules for further information with respect to us and our Class B shares and ADSs.

        Immediately upon completion of this offering, we will become subject to periodic reporting and other informational requirements of the Exchange Act as applicable to foreign private issuers. Accordingly, we will be required to file reports, including annual reports on Form 20-F, and other information with the SEC. However, we are allowed four months to file our annual report with the SEC instead of approximately three, and we are not required to disclose certain detailed information regarding executive compensation that is required from U.S. domestic issuers. Also, as a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules of the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing of proxy statements to shareholders, and our executive officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

        As a foreign private issuer, we are also exempt from the requirements of Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) which, generally, are meant to ensure that select groups of investors are not privy to specific information about an issuer before other investors. We are, however, still subject to the anti-fraud and anti-manipulation rules of the SEC, such as Rule 10b-5. Since many of the disclosure obligations required of us as a foreign private issuer are different than those required by other U.S. domestic reporting companies, our shareholders, potential shareholders and the investing public in general should not expect to receive information about us in the same amount, and at the same time, as information is received from, or provided by, other U.S. domestic reporting companies. We are liable for violations of the rules and regulations of the SEC which do apply to us as a foreign private issuer.

        You may review and copy the registration statement, reports and other information we file at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, DC 20549. You may also request copies of these documents upon payment of a duplicating fee by writing to the SEC.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders of
Abengoa, S.A.:

Seville, Spain

        We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Abengoa, S.A. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2012, and the related consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated cash flow statement and related notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

        We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

        In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Abengoa, S.A. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

        As discussed in Note 2.1.1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company retrospectively changed its method of accounting for International Financial Reporting Standards Committee ("IFRIC") 12-Service Concession Arrangements in 2012 and 2011 from an accounting principle that was acceptable to one that is preferable. Additionally as discussed in Note 2.1.2, the Company retrospectively changed the amounts previously reported for the years ended 2012, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with IFRS 5-Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations due to the sale of the subsidiary Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U. Finally as discussed in Note 2.1.3, the Company retrospectively changed the amounts previously reported for the year ended 2012 due to the adoption of IFRS 10-Consolidated Financial Statements and IFRS 11-Joint Arrangements. As allowed by the transition guidance in IFRS 10-Consolidated Financial Statements and lFRS 11-Joint Arrangements, 2011 and 2010 have not been retrospectively adjusted.

To the shareholders of
Abengoa, S.A.
Seville, Spain

        We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated income statements, statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and cash flow statements for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

        We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

        In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

        As discussed in Note 2.1.1. to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner for which it accounts for its solar-thermal plants in Spain. Additionally as discussed in Note 2.1.2. to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has reflected the sale of its ownership interest in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 1. — General information

        Abengoa, S.A. is the parent company of the Abengoa Group (referred to hereinafter as 'Abengoa', 'the Group' or 'the Company'), which at the end of 2012, was made up of 618 companies: the parent company itself, 563 subsidiaries, 21 associates and 33 joint ventures. Additionally, as of the end of 2012, certain subsidiaries were participating in 224 temporary joint operations (UTE) and, furthermore, the Group held a number of interests, of less than 20%, in several other entities.

        Abengoa, S.A. was incorporated in Seville, Spain on January 4, 1941 as a Limited Liability Company and was subsequently transformed into a Limited Liability Corporation ('S.A' in Spain) on March 20, 1952. Its registered office is Campus Palmas Altas, C/ Energía Solar no 1, 41014 Seville.

        The Group's corporate purpose is set out in Article 3 of the Bylaws. It covers a wide range of activities, although Abengoa is principally an applied engineering and equipment manufacturer, providing integrated project solutions to customers in the following sectors: energy, telecommunications, transport, water utilities, environmental, industrial and service.

        Abengoa's shares are represented by class A and B shares are listed on the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchange and on the Spanish Stock Exchange Electronic Trading System (Electronic Market). Class A shares have been listed since November 29, 1996 and class B shares since October 25, 2012. The Company presents mandatory financial information on a quarterly and semiannually basis.

        Abengoa is an international company that applies innovative technology solutions for sustainability in the energy and environment sectors, generating electricity from renewable resources, converting biomass into biofuels and producing drinking water from sea water. The Company supplies engineering projects under the 'turnkey' contract modality and operates assets that generate renewable energy, produce biofuel, manage water resources, desalinate sea water and treat sewage.

        The Group has identified 3 main business activities (Engineering and Construction, Concession-type Infrastructures and Industrial Production).

        Abengoa's activities are focused on the energy and environmental sectors, and integrate operations throughout the value chain including R+D+i, project development, engineering and construction and operating and maintenance for its own the assets and third parties.

        Abengoa's activity and the internal and external management information are organized under the following three activities:

    Engineering and construction: includes our traditional engineering activities in the energy and water sectors, with more than 70 years of experience in the market and development of thermo-solar technology. Abengoa is specialized in carrying out complex turn-key projects for thermo-solar plants, solar-gas hybrid plants, conventional generation plants, biofuels plants and water infrastructures, as well as large-scale desalination plants and transmission lines, among others.

    Concession-type infrastructures: groups together the company's proprietary concession assets that generate revenues governed by long term sales agreements, such as take-or-pay contracts, tariff contracts or power purchase agreements. This activity includes the operation of electric (solar, cogeneration or wind) energy generation plants and transmission lines. These assets generate low demand risk and we focus on operating them as efficiently as possible.

    Industrial production: covers Abengoa's businesses with a high technological component, such as biofuels and industrial waste recycling (until the sale of shareholding in Befesa Medio

Note 2. — Significant accounting policies

        The significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are set forth below:

2.1.
Basis of presentation

    The Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 and for the three years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 have been prepared from the accounting records of Abengoa, S.A. and its subsidiaries in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (herein, IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) and, they present the Group's equity and financial position at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 and the consolidated results of its operations, the changes in the consolidated equity and the consolidated cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

    The financial information contained in these consolidated financial statements has been recasted to give retroactive effect to several changes in our accounting, in order to enhance the comparability of our financial disclosures with 2013 and subsequent periods. We have recasted our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 to reflect the impact of IFRS 10 and 11; for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 to reflect the change in the application of IFRIC 12-Service Concession Arrangements and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 to present Befesa as a discontinued operation according to IFRS 5. The reasons and effects of these changes are fully disclosed in the following paragraphs.

    A consolidated statement of financial position at the beginning of the first period presented (January 1, 2010) has not been considered necessary according to IAS 1 (40A), as the retrospective application of the change in the application of IFRIC 12 has no impact on the statement of financial position as of that date.

    Unless otherwise stated, the accounting policies as set out below have been applied consistently throughout all periods shown within these Consolidated Financial Statements.

    The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified by the revaluation of certain available-for-sale non-current financial assets under IFRS 1 and with the exception of those situations where IFRS requires that financial assets and financial liabilities are valued at fair value.

    The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements under IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires that Management exercises its judgment in the process of applying Abengoa's accounting policies. Note 3 provides further information on those areas which involve a higher degree of judgment or areas of complexity for which the assumptions or estimates made are significant to the financial statements.

    The amounts included within the documents comprising the Consolidated Financial Statements (Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Income Statement, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated

    2.1.1.
    IFRIC12—Service concession arrangements

      Service concession agreements are recorded in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 12. IFRIC 12 is applicable to public-to-private service concession arrangements where the grantor of the concession governs what services the operator must provide using the infrastructure, to whom and at what price and also controls any significant residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the term of the arrangement. When the operator of the infrastructure is also responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction of such asset, IFRIC 12 requires the separate accounting for the revenue and margins associated with the construction activities, which is not eliminated in consolidation even between companies within the same consolidated group, and for the subsequent operation and maintenance of the infrastructure. In such cases, the investment in the infrastructure used in the concession arrangement cannot be classified as property, plant and equipment of the operator, but rather must be classified as a financial asset or an intangible asset, depending on the nature of the payment rights established under the contract. The infrastructures accounted for by us as service concessions under IFRIC 12 are mainly related to the activities concerning power transmission lines, desalination plants and thermo-solar electricity generation plants outside of Spain and, with effect from January 1, 2011 (as explained below), in Spain.

      The analysis on whether IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities involves various complex factors and it is significantly affected by legal interpretation of certain contractual agreements or other terms and conditions with public sector entities. The application of IFRIC 12 requires extensive judgment in relation with, among other factors, (i) the identification of certain infrastructures and contractual agreements in the scope of IFRIC 12, (ii) the understanding of the nature of the payments in order to determine the classification of the infrastructure as a financial asset or as an intangible asset and (iii) the timing and recognition of the revenue from construction and concessionary activity.

      Thermo-solar electricity generation plants have been affected by numerous laws and regulation which have made difficult and very judgmental their consideration as concessionary assets. The following are the main laws, regulations or agreements with the government which have been considered as the most relevant to the Company's analysis of the application of IFRIC 12 to its thermo-solar assets in Spain:

      the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007; which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers;

      Royal Decree-Law 6/2009 of April 30 (RDL 6/2009); which adopts certain measures in the energy sector, approves a subsidized rate, and creates a "Pre-Allocation Registry";

      Individual rulings issued to us in January and March 2011, from the Spanish Ministry of Industry for each of our thermo-solar installations, confirming earliest commissioning dates, economic terms of the feed-in tariff/premium economic schemes and other issues related to the legal and economic regime of the plants; and

Consolidated financial statements

      Royal Decree 9-2013 of July 12, whereby the government adopted urgent measures to ensure financial stability in the electrical system (see Note 33.9 "Subsequent events").

      As a result of IFRIC 12 on Service Concession Arrangements coming into effect on January 1, 2008 and in accordance with IAS 8 as established in paragraph 29 of the aforementioned IFRIC 12, Abengoa began to apply this interpretation retrospectively with no significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements as of that date, since it had already been applying a similar accounting policy to the interpretation concurrently and in anticipation of the changes for its concession-type assets, mainly related to the international concession business for electricity transmission and desalination, with the exception of its thermo-solar assets in Spain. The Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007, which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers in Spain, is a statutory legal regime that created a legal relationship between the Spanish government and the developers of the plants. This legal relationship is of a public/administrative law nature, meaning that it is a legal relationship that is not governed by the Spanish Civil Code or Spanish Commercial Code in any respect (which governs relationships among private parties). This legal relationship is not a bilateral relationship, meaning that it could be changed unilaterally by the Spanish government by way of introducing changes in the laws and regulations governing the statutory legal regime. For that reason, the Company concluded that these assets did not meet the characteristics of concessionary assets as defined under the Interpretation at the transition date.

      The introduction of RDL 6/2009, created a very high level of uncertainty as to whether our thermo-solar plants in Spain would be entitled to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system, as well as to the continued availability of benefits under the Special Regime remuneration system for the duration of the useful life of our Spanish thermo-solar plants. Registration in the new system of the Pre-Allocation Registry under RDL 6/2009 did not guarantee that all of the thermo-solar plants accepted into the Pre-Allocation Registry would be immediately granted the right to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system. Due to the legal uncertainty created during this period, in the second half of 2010 Abengoa's Board and senior management determined to pursue a strategy to maximize legal certainty for purposes of finally and definitively establishing a legal and binding arrangement for the generation and sale of electricity on terms designed to ensure a reasonable level of return on its investment in Spanish thermo-solar plants and reducing the uncertainty introduced by the economic and political circumstances and the various regulatory changes that were being discussed. Abengoa implemented this strategy by applying for administrative rulings from the Ministry of Industry's General Directorate for Energy Policy and Mining. The Company's aim was to ensure that it had entered into a bilateral contractual relationship with the Spanish government on mutually binding terms and conditions that could not be amended unilaterally and that, in the case of default or breach by the Spanish government, would give the Company the recourse to bring claims based on the damages caused by such default or breach. The rulings do not guarantee that the Company will be successful in any claim brought by it against the Spanish government. However, if Abengoa had not obtained the rulings and only relied on the regulatory framework established by the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007 to participate in the Special Regime, a unilateral change by the Spanish government to that framework affecting all producers equally would have left the Company without legal recourse. These rulings therefore substantially reduced the uncertainty that contributed to the Company's original conclusion that its Spanish thermo-solar plants were not within the scope of IFRIC 12.

Consolidated financial statements

      For the foregoing reasons, the Company did not consider the entry into the Pre-Allocation Registry to constitute the beginning of a service concession arrangement in accordance with the guidance in IFRIC 12 and only considered a service concession arrangement with the Spanish government within the scope of IFRIC 12 to come into existence upon the receipt of the administrative rulings in 2011, as it was through those rulings that the Spanish government confirmed, on an individual basis for each thermo-solar plant, the economic terms of the feed-in tariff and the commissioning dates for each asset, creating a bilateral contractual relationship and an obligation on the Company's part to supply the services at the established terms. In this regard, in June 2013 the Company commenced a private-law action against the Spanish government for breach of contract based on the administrative ruling issued in respect of one of its thermo-solar plants. In that action the Company is seeking performance by the Spanish government in accordance with the terms of that administrative ruling or, in the alternative, money damages in an amount equivalent to the difference between the profit it would have obtained under the administrating ruling and the profit that the Company will obtain under the Spanish government's special-regime tariff. In addition, in June 2013 the Company also submitted a demand for arbitration against the Spanish government alleging that the Spanish government's regulatory reforms of the electricity sector have breached the Company's legitimate expectations under the administrative rulings issued in respect of its thermo-solar facilities and constitute expropriation. Further, the Company is seeking compensation through money damages, in an amount yet to be determined (see Note 33.9 "Subsequent events").

      Furthermore, during the first eight months of 2011, in view of the complex regulatory and accounting issues raised by the application of IFRIC 12 to those assets, and as a result of a review conducted by the Company's home country regulator, the CNMV, the Company decided to gather the opinions of legal and accounting experts on this topic to support its analysis and conclusions. After completing that analysis with the CNMV in August 2011, the Company concluded that its Spanish thermo-solar assets were required to be included in the scope of IFRIC 12. As such, and because the change was driven by a change in facts and circumstances, the Company originally began to apply IFRIC 12 to such assets prospectively from that date (September 1, 2011). As a result, from January 1, 2008 through September 1, 2011, the Company originally determined that these assets were not under the scope of IFRIC 12, and therefore such plants were accounted for in accordance with IAS 16 as "Property, Plant & Equipment in Projects" and classified under the "Fixed Assets in Projects" line item. Capitalized costs derived from the construction of the plants were recorded in "Other Operating Income—Work performed by the entity and capitalized and other". Once IFRIC 12 began to be applied to these assets on September 1, 2011, the Company reclassified its solar-thermal plant assets from "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" to "Intangible Assets in Projects" and, in accordance with IAS 11, the total contract revenue for the construction of the plants (including amounts previously eliminated in consolidation) began to be recognized from September 1, 2011 based on the "percentage of completion" method, up to the finalization of construction of the plants.

      During the year 2013, in connection with the SEC Staff's review of this Registration Statement, the Company has reconsidered the assumptions and conclusions made in 2011, which led to the application of the accounting policy for thermo-solar plants in Spain described above. As a result, on June 30, 2013, the Company decided, based on the provisions of IAS 8.14, to apply an alternative acceptable accounting treatment which would better reflect the reliability and comparability of financial information, consisting of the revision of the method in which it applied IFRIC 12 to its thermo-solar assets in Spain already constructed or under construction

F-15

Consolidated financial statements

      upon application of IFRIC 12 and of the revision of the date on which IFRIC 12 was applied to these assets (January 1, 2011 instead of September 1, 2011). The revised accounting treatment has consisted in applying IFRIC 12 prospectively from January 1, 2011 (as this was the date the administrative rulings were received) by derecognizing, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, the Company's thermo-solar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognizing those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects". The difference of €165 million has been recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment on January 1, 2011 within "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. From January 1, 2011, only the remaining contract revenue, costs and margins generated after such date for the ongoing construction of the plants began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11. In addition, the revenue and operating profit that was previously deferred upon original adoption of IFRIC 12 and that was being recognized prospectively during fiscal years 2011 (from September 1, 2011) and 2012 have been eliminated. The change in application date also resulted in the recognition of revenues and costs associated with the construction activities that occurred between January 1, 2011 and September 1, 2011 that had been previously eliminated in consolidation. In accordance with the terms and requirements of IAS 8 for Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, the Company applied this change in accounting policy by recasting its 2012 and 2011 consolidated financial statements. Total recasted revenues and operating profits related to the Company's thermo-solar activity in Spain amounted to €843 million and €234 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2011 (including the one-time gain of €165million recorded within "other operating income"), versus €649 million and €60 million, respectively, which had been recognized during this same period prior to the voluntary accounting change described above.

      The following table shows the impact of the voluntary change in accounting policy on the consolidated statements of financial position as of December, 31 2012 and December 31, 2011 and on the consolidated income statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. The recasting did not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements as of or for the year ended December 31, 2010.

    2.1.2.
    Discontinued operations

      As described in Note 7, the Company closed the sale of shares of Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U. ('Befesa') in June 30, 2013. At the end of the six month period ended on June 30, 2013, all the conditions necessary to close the transaction were fulfilled and on July 15, 2013 we received €331 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the price agreed for the shares and the sale transaction was definitely closed. The Company has recorded the sale in the Consolidated condensed interim financial statements as of June 30, 2013.

      Taking into account the significance of the activities carried out by Befesa to Abengoa, the sale of this shareholding is considered as a discontinued operation to in accordance with IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.

      In accordance with this standard, the results of Befesa until the closing of the sale and the result of this sale are included under a single heading in Abengoa's Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. In addition, the Consolidated Interim Income Statement for the six month period ended June 30, 2012, included for comparison purposes in Abengoa's Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 also includes the results of Befesa under a single heading. Accordingly, the Company has also presented Befesa as a discontinued operation in these Consolidated Financial Statements as of December, 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, to make them comparable with the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2013.

    2.1.3.
    New accounting standards

    a)
    Standards, interpretations and amendments published by the IASB effective from January 1, 2013 applied retrospectively to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.

        In preparing the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements as of June 30, 2013, the Group has applied the following new standards and amendments that came into effect on January 1, 2013 under the IFRS approved by the International Accounting Standards Board:

        IFRS 10, 'Consolidated Financial Statements'. IFRS 10 supersedes current consolidation requirements of IAS 27 and establishes principles for the presentation and preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements when an

F-17


Table of Contents

Consolidated financial statements

          entity controls one or more other entities. IFRS 10 modifies the current definition of control. The new definition of control sets out the following three elements: power over the investee; exposure, or rights, to variable returns from involvement with the investee; and the ability to use power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor's returns.

        IFRS 11 'Joint arrangements'. IFRS 11, supersedes the actual IAS 31 about joint ventures and under this standard investments in joint arrangements are classified either as joint operations or joint ventures, depending on the contractual rights and obligations each investor has rather than just the legal structure of the joint arrangement. Joint operations arise where a joint operator has rights to the assets and obligations relating to the arrangement and hence accounts for its interest in assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Joint ventures arise where the joint operator has rights to the net assets of the arrangement and accounts for its interest under the equity method. Proportional consolidation of joint ventures is no longer allowed.

        IFRS 12 'Disclosures of interests in other entities'. IFRS 12 defines the required disclosures of interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures and non-controlling interests.

        IAS 27 (amendment) 'Separated financial statements'. After IFRS 10 has been published, IAS 27 covers only separate financial statements.

        IAS 28 (amendment) 'Associates and joint ventures'. IAS 28 has been amended to include the requirements for joint ventures to be accounted for under the equity method following the issuance of IFRS 11.

        IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 (amendments) 'Transition guidance'.

        The main impacts of the application of the new standards IFRS 10 and 11, as well as the amendments to IAS 27 and 28, in relation to what was systematically applied previously, relate to:

        (i)
        The de-consolidation of companies that not fulfill the conditions of effective control of the interest during the construction phase in terms of decision making for their integration in the Consolidated Financial Statements according to the equity method.

        (ii)
        The elimination of the proportional consolidation of the joint ventures, with the equity method being obligatory for recording its interest in the company.

        According to the terms and requirements established in IAS 8 'Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors', the above standards and amendments are required to be retrospectively applied, recasting the comparison information presented for the year 2012 in order to make it comparable with the information at June 30, 2013. Consequently, the Company has recasted the information presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December, 31, 2012, to make it comparable with the information as of June 2013. Consolidated Financial Statements as of December, 31, 2011 and 2010 have not been recasted according to the transition guidance of this IFRS.

        IAS 1 (amendment) 'Financial statements presentation'.

2.2.
Principles of consolidation

    In order to provide information on a consistent basis, the same principles and standards applied to the parent company have been applied to all other consolidated entities.

    All subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures included in the consolidated group for the years 2012, 2011 and 2010 that form the basis of these Consolidated Financial Statements are set out in Appendices I (XIII, XVIII), II (XIV, XIX), III and IV (XV, XX), respectively.

    Note 6 of these Consolidated Financial Statements reflects the information on the changes in the composition of the Group.

    a)
    Subsidiaries

      Subsidiaries are those entities over which Abengoa has control.

      Control is achieved when the Company:

      has power over the investee;

      is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

      has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

      The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee when facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

      When the Company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Company's voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including:

      the size of the Company's holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;

      potential voting rights held by the Company, other vote holders or other parties;

      rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and

F-20


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

      any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Company has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders' meetings.

      Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary.

      The Group uses the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group and includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Any contingent consideration is recognized at fair value at the acquisition date and subsequent changes to its fair value are recognized in accordance with IAS 39 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the acquirer's net assets.

      The value of non-controlling interest in equity and the consolidated results are shown, respectively, under 'Non-controlling interest' of the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and 'Profit attributable to non-controlling interest' in the Consolidated Income Statements.

      Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

      When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group's accounting policies.

      All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

      In compliance with Article 155 of Spanish Corporate Law (Ley de Sociedades de Capital), the parent company has notified to all these companies that, either by itself or through another subsidiary, it owns more than 10 per 100 of their capital. Appendix IX lists the Companies external to the Group which have a share equal to or greater than 10% of a subsidiary of the parent company under consolidation.

    b)
    Associates and joint ventures

      An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

      A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

Consolidated financial statements

      The results and assets and liabilities of associates or joint ventures are incorporated in these Consolidated Financial Statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture. When the Group's share of losses of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the Group's interest in that associate or joint venture, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognized only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.

      An investment in an associate or a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the date on which the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture.

      Profits and losses resulting from the transactions of the Company with the associate or joint venture are recognized in the Group's Consolidated Financial Statements only to the extent of interests in the associate or joint venture that are not related to the Group.

      As of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 there are no significant contingent liabilities in the Group's interests in joint ventures.

      In compliance with Article 155 of Spanish Corporate Law (Ley de Sociedades de Capital), the parent company has notified to all these companies that, either by itself or through another subsidiary, it owns more than 10 per 100 of their capital.

    c)
    Interest in joint operations and temporary joint operations (UTEs)

      A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

      When a group entity undertakes its activities under joint operations, the Group as a joint operator recognises in relation to its interest in a joint operation:

      Its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly.

      Its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly.

      Its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation.

      Its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation.

      Its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.

      The Group accounts for the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its interest in a joint operation in accordance with the IFRSs applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

      When a group entity transacts with a joint operation in which a group entity is a joint operator (such as a purchase of assets), the Group does not recognize its share of the gains and losses until it resells those assets to a third party.

      'Unión Temporal de Empresas' (UTE) are temporary joint operations generally formed to execute specific commercial and/or industrial projects in a wide variety of areas and particularly

      in the fields of engineering and construction and infrastructure projects. They are normally used to combine the characteristics and qualifications of the UTE's partners into a single proposal in order to obtain the most favorable technical assessment possible. UTE are normally limited as standalone entities with limited action, since, although they may enter into commitments in their own name, such commitments are generally undertaken by their investors, in proportion to each investor's share in the UTE.

      The partners' shares in the UTE normally depend on their contributions (quantitative or qualitative) to the project, are limited to their own tasks and are intended solely to generate their own specific results. Each partner is responsible for executing its own tasks and does so in its own interests.

      The fact that one of the UTE's partners acts as project manager does not affect its position or share in the UTE. The UTE's partners are collectively responsible for technical issues, although there are strict pari passu clauses that assign the specific consequences of each investor's correct or incorrect actions.

      UTE are not variable-interest or special-purpose entities. UTE do not usually own assets or liabilities on a standalone basis. Their activity is conducted for a specific period of time that is normally limited to the execution of the project. The UTE may own certain fixed assets used in carrying out its activity, although in this case they are generally acquired and used jointly by all the UTE's investors, for a period similar to the project's duration, or prior agreements are signed by the partners on the assignment or disposal of the UTE's assets upon completion of the project.

      UTE in which the Company participates are operated through a management committee comprised of equal representation from each of the temporary joint operation partners, and such committee makes all the decisions about the temporary joint operation's activities that have a significant effect on its success. All the decisions require consent of each of the parties sharing power, so that all the parties together have the power to direct the activities of the UTE. Each partner has rights to the assets and obligations relating to the arrangement. As a result, these temporary joint operations are consolidated proportionally.

      The proportional part of the UTE's Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Income Statement is integrated into the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the Consolidated Income Statement of the Company in proportion to its interest in the UTE on a line-by-line basis.

      As of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 there are no significant material liabilities in relation to the Group's shareholdings in the UTE.

    d)
    Transactions with non-controlling interests

      Transactions with non-controlling interests are accounted for as transactions with equity owners of the group. When the Group acquires non-controlling interests, the difference between any consideration paid and the carrying value of the proportionate share of net assets acquired is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals of non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.

      When the group ceases to have control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value, and any difference between fair value and its carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. In addition, any amount previously recognized in other

F-23

Consolidated financial statements

      comprehensive income in respect of that entity is accounted for as if the group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

      Companies and entities which are third parties for the Group and which hold a share equal to or larger than 10% in the share capital of any company included in the consolidation group are disclosed in Appendix IX.

2.3.
Intangible assets

a)
Goodwill

      Goodwill is recognized as the excess between (A) and (B), where (A) is the sum of the considerations transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and in the case of a business combination achieved in stages, the fair value on the acquisition date of the previously held interest in the acquire and (B) the net value, at the acquisition date, of the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed, measured at fair value. If the resulting amount is negative, in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognized as an income directly in the Consolidated Income Statement.

      Goodwill relating to the acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets, while goodwill relating to associates is included in investments in associates.

      Goodwill is carried at initial value less accumulated impairment losses (see Note 2.8). Goodwill is allocated to Cash Generating Units (CGU) for the purposes of impairment testing, these CGU's being the units which are expected to benefit from the business combination that generated the goodwill.

    b)
    Computer programs

      Costs paid for licenses for computer programs are capitalized, including preparation and installation costs directly associated with the software. Such costs are amortized over their estimated useful life. Maintenance costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

      Costs directly related with the production of identifiable computer programs are recognized as intangible assets when they are likely to generate future economic benefit for a period of one or more years and they fulfill the following conditions:

        It is technically possible to complete the production of the intangible asset;

        Management intends to complete the intangible asset;

        The Company is able to use or sell the intangible asset;

        There are technical, financial and other resources available to complete the development of the intangible asset; and

        Disbursements attributed to the intangible asset during its development may be reliably measured.

      Costs directly related to the production of computer programs recognized as intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives which do not exceed 10 years.

      Costs that do not meet the criteria above are recognized as expenses when incurred.

    c)
    Research and development cost

      Research costs are recognized as an expense when they are incurred.

F-24


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

      Development costs (relating to the design and testing of new and improved products) are recognized as an intangible asset when all the following criteria are met:

        It is probable that the project will be successful, taking into account its technical and commercial feasibility, so that the project will be available for its use or sale;

        It is probable that the project will generate future economic benefits;

        Management intends to complete the project;

        The Company is able to use or sell the intangible asset;

        There are appropriate technical, financial or other resources available to complete the development of the intangible asset; and

        The costs of the project/product can be measured reliably.

      Once the product is in the market, capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period for which the product is expected to generate economic benefits, which is normally 5 years, except for development assets related to the thermo-solar plant using tower technology which are amortized over 25 years.

      Development costs that do not meet the criteria above are recognized as expenses when incurred.

      Grants or subsidized loans obtained to finance research and development projects are recognized as income consistently with the expenses they are financing (following the rules described above).

    d)
    Emission rights of greenhouse gases for own use

      Under this head the Company records greenhouse gas emissions rights obtained through allocation by the competent national authority, which are used against the emissions discharged in the course of the Group's production activities. These emission rights are measured at their acquisition cost and are derecognized from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when used, under the National Assignation Plan for Greenhouse Gas Permits or when they expire.

      Emission rights are tested for impairment to establish whether their acquisition cost is greater than their fair value. If impairment is recognized and, subsequently, the market value of the rights recovers, the impairment loss is reversed through the Consolidated Income Statement, up to the limit of the original carrying value of the rights.

      When greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere, the releasing company provides for the tonnage of CO2 released at the average purchase price per ton of rights acquired. Any emissions in excess of the value of the rights purchased in a certain period will give rise to a provision for the cost of the rights at that date.

      In the event that the emission rights are not for own use but intended to be traded in the market, the contents of Note 2.13 will be applicable.

2.4. Property, plant and equipment

2.4.1.  Presentation

    For the purposes of preparing these Consolidated Financial Statements, property, plant and equipment has been divided into the following categories:

    a)
    Property, plant and equipment

      Includes property, plant and equipment of companies or project companies which have been self-financed or financed through external financing with recourse facilities.

    b)
    Property, plant and equipment in Projects

      Includes property, plant and equipment of companies or project companies which are financed through non-recourse project finance (for further details see Notes 2.5 and 10 on Fixed Assets in Projects).

2.4.2.  Measurement

    In general, property, plant and equipment is measured at historical cost, including all expenses directly attributable to the acquisition, less depreciation and impairment losses, with the exception of land, which is presented net of any impairment losses.

    Subsequent costs are capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with that asset can be separately and reliably identified.

    Work carried out by a company on its own property, plant and equipment is valued at production cost. In internal construction projects of our own assets carried out by our Engineering and Construction segment which are not under the scope of IFRIC 12 on Service Concession Arrangements (see Note 2.25), internal margins are eliminated. The corresponding costs are recognized in the individual expense line item in the accompanying income statements. The recognition of an income for the sum of such costs through the line item 'Other income- Work performed by the entity and capitalized, and other' results in these costs having no impact in operating profit. The corresponding assets are capitalized and included in property, plant and equipment in the accompanying balance sheets.

    All other repair and maintenance costs are charged to the Consolidated Income Statement in the period in which they are incurred.

    Costs incurred during the construction period may also include gains or losses from foreign-currency cash-flow hedging instruments for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment in foreign currency, transferred from equity.

    With regard to investments in property, plant and equipment located on land belonging to third parties, an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling the asset and restoring the site to its original condition is also included in the carrying amount of the asset. Such costs are recorded at their net present value in accordance with IAS 37.

  8% – 20%

        Waste ponds and similar assets are depreciated on the basis of the volume of waste in the ponds.

    The assets' residual values and useful economic lives are reviewed, and adjusted if necessary, at the end of the accounting period of the company which owns the asset.

    When the carrying amount of an asset is higher than its recoverable amount, the carrying amount is reduced immediately to reflect the lower recoverable amount.

2.5. Fixed assets in projects (project finance)

    This category includes property, plant and equipment and intangible assets of consolidated companies which are financed through Non-recourse Project Finance, that are raised specifically and solely to finance individual projects as detailed in the terms of the loan agreement.

    These non-recourse Project Finance assets are generally the result of projects which consist of the design, construction, financing, application and maintenance of large-scale complex operational assets or infrastructures, which are owned by the company or are held under a concession agreement for a period of time. The projects are initially financed through non-recourse medium-term bridge loans and later by Non-recourse Project Finance.

    In this respect, the basis of the financing agreement between the Company and the bank lies in the allocation of the cash flows generated by the project to the repayment of the principal amount and interest expenses, excluding or limiting the amount secured by other assets, in such a way that the bank recovers the investment solely through the cash flows generated by the project financed, any other debt being subordinated to the debt arising from the non-recourse financing applied to projects until the non-recourse debt has been fully repaid. For this reason, fixed assets in projects are separately reported on the face of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, as is the related non-recourse debt in the liability section of the same statement.

    In addition, within the fixed assets in projects line item of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, assets are sub-classified under the following two sub-headings, depending upon their nature and their accounting treatment:

    Intangible assets: includes fixed assets financed through non-recourse loans, mainly related to Service Concession Arrangements, which are accounted for as intangible assets in accordance with IFRIC 12 (see Note 2.25). The rest of the assets shown under this heading are the

F-27


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

      intangible assets owned by the project company, the description and accounting treatment of which are set forth in Note 2.3.

    Property, plant and equipment: includes tangible fixed assets which are financed through a non-recourse loan and are not subject to a concession agreement as described below. Their accounting treatment is described in Note 2.4.

    Non-recourse project finance typically includes the following guarantees:

    Shares of the project developers are pledged.

    Assignment of collection rights.

    Limitations on the availability of assets relating to the project.

    Compliance with debt coverage ratios.

    Subordination of the payment of interest and dividends to meeting financial covenant ratios.

    Once the project finance has been repaid and the non-recourse debt and related guarantees fully extinguished, any remaining net book value reported under this category is reclassified to the Property, Plant and Equipment or Intangible Assets line items, as applicable, in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

2.6. Current and non-current classification

    Assets are classified as current assets if they are expected to be realized in less than 12 months after the date of the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Otherwise, they are classified as non-current assets.

    Liabilities are classified as current liabilities unless an unconditional right exists to defer their repayment by at least 12 months following the date of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

2.7. Borrowing costs

    Interest costs incurred in the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalized over the period required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its internal use or sale, which in Abengoa is considered to be more than one year.

    Costs incurred relating to non-recourse factoring are expensed when the factoring transaction is completed with the financial institution.

    Remaining borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

2.8. Impairment of non-financial assets

    Abengoa reviews its property, plant and equipment, intangible assets with finite and indefinite useful life and goodwill to identify any indicators of impairment quarterly. In addition, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful life or that are not yet in operation are tested for impairment on an annual basis.

    These assets are impaired when the carrying amount of the Cash Generating Unit to which it belongs is lower than its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the market value less related cost to sell and the value in use, which is the present value of estimated future cash flows.

F-28


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use, defined as the present value of the estimated future cash flows to be generated by the asset. In the event that the asset does not generate cash flows independently of other assets, Abengoa calculates the recoverable amount of the Cash-Generating Unit to which the asset belongs.

    Assumptions used to calculate value in use include a discount rate, growth rates and projected changes in both selling prices and costs. The discount rate is estimated by Management, pre-tax, to reflect both changes in the value of money over time and the risks associated with the specific Cash-Generating Unit. Growth rates and changes in prices and costs are projected based upon internal and industry projections and management experience respectively. Financial projections range between 5 and 10 years depending on the growth potential of each Cash Generating Unit.

    To calculate the value in use of the major goodwill balances (Recycling, Biofuels), the following assumptions were made:

    10-year financial projections were used for those Cash-Generating Units (CGUs) that have high growth potential based on cash flows taken into account in the strategic plans for each business unit, considering a residual value based on the flow in the final year of the projection.

      The use of these 10-year financial projections was based on the assumption that it is the minimum period necessary for the discounted cash flow model to reflect all potential growth in the CGUs in each business segment showing significant investments.

      The aforementioned estimated cash flows were considered to be reliable due to their capacity to adapt to the real market and/or business situation faced by the CGU in accordance with the business's margin and cash-flow experience and future expectations.

      These cash flows are reviewed and approved every six months by Senior Management so that the estimates are continually updated to ensure consistency with the actual results obtained.

      In these cases, given that the period used is reasonably long, the Group then applies a zero growth rate for the cash flows subsequent to the period covered by the strategic plan.

    For concession assets with a defined useful life and with a specific financial structure, cash flow projections until the end of the project are considered and no terminal value is assumed.

      Concession assets have a contractual structure that permits to estimate quite accurately the costs of the project (both in the construction and in the operations periods) and revenue during the life of the project.

      Projections take into account real data based in the contract terms and fundamental assumptions based in specific reports prepared by experts, assumptions on demand and assumptions on production. Additionally, assumptions on macro-economic conditions are also taken into account, such as inflation rates, future interest rates, etc. and sensitivity analysis are performed over all major assumptions which can have a significant impact in the value of the asset.

    5-year cash flow projections are used for all other CGUs, considering the residual value to be the cash flow in the final year projected.

    Cash flow projections of CGUs located in other countries are calculated in the functional currency of those CGUs and are discounted using rates that take into consideration the risk corresponding to each specific country and currency. Present values obtained with this method are then converted to euros at the year-end exchange rate of each currency.

F-29


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    Taking into account that in most CGUs its specific financial structure is linked to the financial structure of the projects that are part of those CGUs, the discount rate used to calculate the present value of cash-flow projections is based in the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for the type of asset, adjusted, if necessary, in accordance with the business of the specific activity and with the risk associated with the country where the project is performed.

    In any case, sensitivity analyses are performed, especially in relation with the discount rate used, residual value and fair value changes in the main business variables, in order to ensure that possible changes in the estimates of these items do not impact the possible recovery of recognized assets.

    Accordingly, the following table provides a summary of the discount rates used (WACC) and growth rates to calculate the recoverable amount for Cash-Generating Units with the operating segment to which it pertains:

 
Operating segment
  Discount rate   Growth Rate
 

Engineering and construction

       
 

Engineering and construction

  8% – 11%   0%
 

Concession-type infraestructure

       
 

Solar

  5% – 7%   0%
 

Water

  5% – 8%   0%
 

Transmission lines

  5% – 6%   0%
 

Cogeneration

  6% – 9%   0%
 

Industrial production

       
 

Biofuels

  5% – 8%   0%
 

Recycling

  6% – 10%   0%

    In the event that the recoverable amount of an asset is lower than its carrying amount, an impairment charge for the difference recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement under the item 'Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges'. With the exception of goodwill, impairment losses recognized in prior periods which are later deemed to have been recovered are credited to the same income statement heading.

2.9. Financial Investments (current and non-current)

    Financial investments are classified into the following categories, based primarily on the purpose for which they were acquired:

    a)
    financial assets at fair value through profit and loss;

    b)
    loans and accounts receivable;

    c)
    financial assets held to maturity; and

    d)
    available for sale financial assets.

    Classification of each financial asset is determinated by management upon initial recognition, and is reviewed at each year end.

    a)
    Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss

      This category includes the financial assets acquired for trading and those initially designated at fair value through profit and loss. A financial asset is classified in this category if it is acquired

F-30


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

      mainly for the purpose of sale in the short term or if it is so designated by Management. Financial derivatives are also classified as acquired for trading unless they are designated as hedging instruments.

      These financial assets are recognized initially at fair value, without including transaction costs. Subsequent changes in fair value are recognized under 'Gains or losses from financial assets at fair value' within the 'Finance income or expense' line of the Consolidated Income Statement for the period.

    b)
    Loans and accounts receivables

      Loans and accounts receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments, not listed on an active market.

      Following the application of IFRIC 12, certain assets under concessions can qualify as financial receivables (see Note 2.25).

      Loans and accounts receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortized cost in accordance with the effective interest rate method. Interest calculated using the effective interest rate method is recognized under 'Interest income from loans and debts' within the 'Finance income' line of the Consolidated Income Statement.

    c)
    Financial assets held to maturity

      This category includes non-derivative financial assets expected to be held to maturity which have fixed or determinable payments.

      These assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently measured at their amortized cost under the effective interest rate method. Interest calculated under the effective interest rate method is recognized under 'Other finance income' within the 'Other net finance income/expense' line of the Consolidated Income Statement.

    d)
    Available for sale financial assets

      This category includes non-derivative financial assets which do not fall within any of the previously mentioned categories. For Abengoa, they primarily comprise interests in other companies that are not consolidated.

      Financial assets available for sale are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized directly in equity, with the exception of translation differences of monetary assets, which are charged to the Consolidated Income Statement. Dividends from available-for-sale financial assets are recognized under 'Other finance income' within the 'Other net finance income/expense' line of the Consolidated Income Statement when the right to receive the dividend is established.

      When available-for-sale financial assets are sold or impaired, the accumulated amount recorded in equity is transferred to the Consolidated Income Statement. To establish whether the assets have been impaired, it is necessary to consider whether the reduction in their fair value is significantly below cost and whether it will be for a prolonged period of time. The cumulative gain or loss reclassified from equity to profit or loss when the financial assets are impaired is the difference between their acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortization) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement are not subsequently reversed through the Consolidated Income Statement.

F-31


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

      Acquisitions and disposals of financial assets are recognized on the trading date, i.e. the date upon which there is a commitment to purchase or sell the asset. Available for sale financial assets are derecognized when the right to received cash flows from the investment has expired or has been transferred and all the risks and rewards derived from owning the asset have likewise been substantially transferred.

      At the date of each Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Group evaluates if there is any objective evidence that the value of any financial asset or any group of financial assets has been impaired.

2.10.  Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

    Derivatives are recorded at fair value. The Company applies hedge accounting to all hedging derivatives that qualify to be accounted for as hedges under IFRS.

    When hedge accounting is applied, hedging strategy and risk management objectives are documented at inception, as well as the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items. Effectiveness of the hedging relationship needs to be assessed on an ongoing basis. Effectiveness tests are performed prospectively and retrospectively at inception and at each reporting date, following the dollar offset method or the regression method, depending on the type of derivatives.

    The Company has three types of hedges:

    a)
    Fair value hedge for recognized assets and liabilities

      Changes in fair value of the derivatives are recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the asset or liability that is being hedged.

    b)
    Cash flow hedge for forecasted transactions

      The effective portion of changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded temporarily in equity and are subsequently reclassified from equity to profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects profit or loss. Any ineffective portion of the hedged transaction is recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement as it occurs.

      When options are designated as hedging instruments (such as interest rate options described in Note 14), the intrinsic value and time value of the financial hedge instrument are separated. Changes in intrinsic value which are highly effective are recorded in equity and subsequently reclassified from equity to profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects profit or loss. Changes in time value are recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement, together with any ineffectiveness.

      When the hedged forecasted transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or liability, gains and losses previously recorded in equity are included in the initial cost of the asset or liability.

      When the hedging instrument matures or is sold, or when it no longer meets the requirements to apply hedge accounting, accumulated gains and losses recorded in equity remain as such until the forecast transaction is ultimately recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement. However, if it becomes unlikely that the forecast transaction will actually take place, the accumulated gains and losses in equity are recognized immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement.

F-32

Consolidated financial statements

    c)
    Net investment hedges in foreign operation

      Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, including the hedging of a monetary item considered part of a net investment, are recognized in a similar way to cash flow hedges. The foreign currency transaction gain or loss on the non-derivative hedging instrument that is designated as, and is effective as, an economic hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation shall be reported in the same manner as a translation adjustment. That is, reported in the cumulative translation adjustment section of equity to the extent it is effective as a hedge, as long as the following conditions are met: the notional amount of the non-derivative instrument matches the portion of the net investment designated as being hedged and the non-derivative instrument is denominated in the functional currency of the hedged net investment. In that circumstance, no hedge ineffectiveness would be recognized in earnings.

      Amounts recorded in equity will be reclassified to the Consolidated Income Statement when the foreign operation is sold or otherwise disposed of.

      Contracts held for the purposes of receiving or making payment of non-financial elements in accordance with expected purchases, sales or use of goods ('own-use contracts') of the Group are not recognized as derivative instruments, but as executory contracts. In the event that such contracts include embedded derivatives, they are recognized separately from the host contract, if the economic characteristics of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract. The options contracted for the purchase or sale of non-financial elements which may be cancelled through cash outflows are not considered to be own-use contracts.

      Changes in fair value of derivative instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement. Trading derivatives are classified as a current assets or liabilities.

2.11.
Fair value estimates

    The fair value of financial instruments traded on active markets (such as officially listed derivatives), is determined by the market value as of the date of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

    A market is considered active when quoted prices are readily and regularly available from stock markets or financial intermediaries, among others, and these prices reflect current market transactions that regularly occur between parties operating independently.

    The fair value of financial instruments which are not listed or which do not have readily available market values is determined by applying various valuation techniques that use assumptions based upon market conditions as of the date of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of estimated future cash flows. The fair value of forward exchange rate contracts is measured on the basis of market forward exchange rates as at the date of Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

    The nominal value of receivables and payables less estimated impairment adjustments is assumed to be similar to their fair value due to their short-term nature. The fair value of financial liabilities is estimated as the present value of contractual future cash outflows, using market interest rate available to the Group for similar financial instruments.

    Detailed information on fair values is included in Note 12.

Inventories

    Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. In general, cost is determined by using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress includes design costs, raw materials, direct labor, other direct costs and general manufacturing costs (assuming normal operating capacity). Borrowing costs are not included. The net realizable value is the estimated sales value in the normal course of business, less applicable variable selling costs.

    Cost of inventories includes the transfer from equity of gains and losses on qualifying cash-flow hedging instruments related with the purchase of raw materials or with foreign exchange contracts.

2.13.
Carbon emission credits (CERs)

    Several Abengoa entities are involved in a number of external projects to reduce CO2 emissions through participation in Clean Development Mechanisms (CDM) and Joint Implementation (JI) programs with those countries/parties which are purchasing Carbon Emission Credits (CERs) and Emission Reduction Credits (ERUs), respectively. CDMs are projects in countries which are not required to reduce emission levels, whilst JIs are aimed at developing countries which are required to reduce emissions.

    Both projects are developed in two phases:

    1)
    Development phase, which, in turn, has the following stages:

    Signing an ERPA agreement (Emission Reduction Purchase Agreement), to which certain offer costs are associated.

    PDD (Project Design Document) development.

    Obtaining a certification from a qualified third party regarding the project being developed and submitting the certification to the United Nations, where it is registered in a database.

      Thus, the Group currently holds various agreements for consultancy services within the framework of the execution of Clean Development Mechanisms (CDM). Costs incurred in connection with such consultancy services are recognized by the Group as non-current receivables.

    2)
    Phase of annual verification of the reductions in CO2 emissions. After this verification, the company receives Carbon Emission Credits (CERs), which are registered in the National Register of Emission Rights. CERs are recorded as inventories and measured at market value.

    Likewise, the company may hold Emission Allowances assigned by the competent EU Emission Allowance Authority (EUAs), which may also be measured at market price if held for sale. In case of the EUA are held for own use see Note 2.3.d.

    Furthermore, there are carbon fund holdings aimed at financing the acquisition of emissions from projects which contribute to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in developing countries through CDM's and JI's, as discussed above. Certain Abengoa companies have holdings in such carbon reduction funds which are managed by an external Fund Management team. The Fund directs the resources of the funds to purchasing Emission Reductions through CDM's and JI's projects.

    The company with holdings in the fund incurs in a number of costs (ownership commissions, prepayments and purchases of CER's). From the start, the holding is recorded on the balance sheet based upon the original Carbon Emission Credit (CER) allocation agreement; however this amount will be allocated over the life of the fund. The price of the CER is fixed for each ERPA. Based upon its

F-34

Consolidated financial statements

    percentage holding, and on the fixed price of the CER, it receives a number of CER's as obtained by the Fund from each project.

    These contributions are considered as long-term investments and are recognized in non-current assets in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position under the heading of 'Other receivables accounts'.

2.14.
Biological assets

    Abengoa recognizes sugar cane in production as biological assets. The production period of sugar cane covers the period from preparation of the land and sowing the seedlings until the plant is ready for first production and harvesting. Biological assets are classified as property, plant and equipment in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Biological assets are recognized at fair value, calculated as the market value less estimated harvesting and transport costs.

    Agricultural products harvested from biological assets, which in the case of Abengoa are cut sugar cane, are classified as inventories and measured at fair value less estimated sale costs at the point of sale or harvesting.

    Fair value of biological assets is calculated using as a reference the forecasted market price of sugarcane, which is estimated using public information and estimates on future prices of sugar and ethanol. Fair value of agricultural products is calculated using the price of sugar cane made public on a monthly basis by the Cane, Sugar and Alcohol Producers Board (Consecana).

    Gains or losses arising as a result of changes in the fair value of such assets are recorded, within 'Other operating income' caption in the Consolidated Income Statement.

    To obtain the fair value of the sugar cane while growing, a number of assumptions and estimates have been made in relation to the area of land sown, the estimated TRS (Total Recoverable Sugar contained within the cane) per ton to be harvested and the average degree of growth of the agricultural product in the different areas sown.

2.15.
Clients and other receivables

    Clients and other receivables relate to amounts due from customers for sales of goods and services rendered in the normal course of operation.

    Clients and other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment. Trade receivables due in less than one year are carried at their face value at both initial recognition and subsequent measurement, provided that the effect of not discounting flows is not significant.

    A provision for impairment of trade receivables is recorded when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to recover all amounts due as per the original terms of the receivables. The existence of significant financial difficulties, the probability that the debtor is in bankruptcy or financial reorganization and the lack or delay in payments are considered evidence that the receivable is impaired.

    The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate. When a trade receivable is uncollectable, it is written off against the bad debt provision.

    Clients and other receivables which have been factored with financial entities are derecognized and hence removed from assets on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position only if all risks and rewards of ownership of the related financial assets have been transferred, comparing the Company's

F-35


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    exposure, before and after the transfer, to the variability in the amounts and the calendar of net cash flows from the transferred asset. Once the Company's exposure to this variability has been eliminated or substantially reduced, the financial asset has been transferred, and is derecognized from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position (See Note 4.b).

2.16.
Cash and cash equivalents

    Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, cash in bank and other highly-liquid current investments with an original maturity of three months or less which are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.

    In the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, bank overdrafts are classified as borrowings within current liabilities.

2.17.
Share capital

    Parent company shares are classified as equity. Transaction costs directly attributable to new shares are presented in equity as a reduction, net of taxes, to the consideration received from the issue.

    Treasury shares are classified in Equity-Parent company reserves. Any amounts received from the sale of treasury shares, net of transaction costs, are classified equity.

2.18.
Government grants

    Non-refundable capital grants are recognized at fair value when it is considered that there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and that the necessary qualifying conditions, as agreed with the entity assigning the grant, will be adequately complied with.

    Grants related to income are recorded as liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and are recognized in 'Other operating income' in the Consolidated Income Statement based on the period necessary to match them with the costs they intend to compensate.

    Grants related to fixed assets are recorded as non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and are recognized in 'Other operating income' in the Consolidated Income Statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful economic life of the assets.

2.19.
Loans and borrowings

    External resources are classified in the following categories:

    a)
    Non-recourse financing applied to projects (project financing) (see note 19);

    b)
    Corporate financing (see Note 20);

    Loans and borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost and any difference between the proceeds initially received (net of transaction costs incurred in obtaining such proceeds) and the repayment value is recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement over the duration of the borrowing using the effective interest rate method.

    Interest free loans, mainly granted for research and development projects, are initially recognized at fair value in liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The difference between proceeds received from the loan and its fair value is initially recorded within 'Grants and other liabilities' in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, and subsequently recorded in 'Other operating income—grants' in the Consolidated income statement when the costs financed with the loan are expensed. In the case of interest free loans received for development projects where we

F-36

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    record an intangible asset, income from the grant will be recognized according to the useful life of the asset, at the same path as we record its amortization.

    Commissions paid for obtaining credit lines are recognized as transaction costs if it is probable that part or all of the credit line will be drawn down. If this is the case, commissions are deferred until the credit line is drawn down. If it is not probable that all or part of the credit line will be drawn down, commission costs are expensed in the period.

      2.19.1. Convertible notes

      Pursuant to the Terms and Conditions of each of the convertible notes issued, when investors exercise their conversion right, the Company may decide whether to deliver shares of the company, cash, or a combination of cash and shares (see Note 20.3 for further information).

      In accordance with IAS 32 and 39, since Abengoa has a contractual right to choose the type of payment and one of these possibilities is paying through a variable number of shares and cash, the conversion option qualifies as an embedded derivative. Thus, the convertible bond is considered a hybrid instrument, which includes a component of debt and an embedded derivative for the conversion option held by the bondholder.

      The Company initially measures the embedded derivative at fair value and classifies it under the derivative financial instruments liability heading. At the end of each period, the embedded derivative is re-measured and changes in fair value are recognized under 'Other net finance income or expense' within the 'Finance expense net' line of the Consolidated Income Statement. The debt component of the bond is initially recorded as the difference between the proceeds received for the notes and the fair value of the aforementioned embedded derivative. Subsequently, the debt component is measured at amortized cost until it is settled upon conversion or maturity. In general, debt issuance costs are recognized as a deduction in the value of the debt in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and included as part of its amortized cost.

      2.19.2. Ordinary notes

      The company initially recognizes ordinary notes at fair value, net of issuance costs incurred. Subsequently, notes are measured at amortized cost until settlement upon maturity. Any other difference between the proceeds obtained (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement over the term of the debt using the effective interest rate method.

2.20.
Current and deferred income taxes

    Income tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax is recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity. In these cases, income tax is also recognized directly in equity.

    Current income tax expense is calculated on the basis of the tax laws in force or about to enter into force as of the date of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position in the countries in which the subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income.

    Deferred income tax is calculated in accordance with the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position liability method, based upon the temporary differences arising between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their tax base. However, deferred income tax is not recognized if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor the taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is

F-37


Table of Contents

Consolidated financial statements

    determined using tax rates and regulations which are enacted or substantially enacted at the date of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and are expected to apply and/or be in force at the time when the deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

    Deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is probable that sufficient future taxable profit will be available to use deferred tax assets.

    Deferred taxes are recognized on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences is controlled by the Group and it is not probable that temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future.

2.21.
Employee benefits

a)
Share plans

      Certain Group companies have obligations in connection with certain share-based incentive plans for managers and employees. These plans are linked to the achievement of certain management objectives during the upcoming years. When the shares have an active market (which is the case for plans linked to Abengoa shares), personnel expense is recognized during the vesting period based on their fair value at grant date. In either case, the impact of these share plans on Abengoa's Consolidated Financial Statements is not significant. When there is non active market for the shares granted by the plan, personnel expense is recognized on the basis of the repurchase price identified in the plan during the vesting period.

      Share plans are considered a cash-settled share-based payment plans in accordance with IFRS 2, since the company compensates the participants for their services in exchange for the assumption of the market risk on the shares. By use of the guarantee on the loan, Abengoa guarantees participants, up to the end of the plan period, no personal losses in conjunction with a change in the price of the shares purchased. As such, Abengoa measures and recognizes at the end of each reporting period, a liability based on the value of the shares. Upon expiration of the Plan, employees may sell the shares to repay the individual loan or may otherwise repay the loan as they wish.

    b)
    Bonus schemes

      The Group records the amount annually accrued in accordance with the percentage of compliance with the plan's established objectives as personnel expense in the Consolidated Income Statement

      Expenses incurred from employee benefits are disclosed in Note 29.

2.22.
Provisions and contingencies

    Provisions are recognized when:

    There is a present obligation, either legal or constructive, as a result of past events;

    It is more likely than not that there will be a future outflow of resources to settle the obligation; and

    The amount has been reliably estimated.

    Provisions are initially measured at the present value of the expected outflows required to settle the obligation and subsequently valued at amortized cost following the effective interest method. The balance of Provisions disclosed in the Notes reflects management's best estimate of the potential exposure as of the date of preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

F-38


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    Contingent liabilities are possible obligations, existing obligations with low probability of a future outflow of economic resources and existing obligations where the future outflow cannot be reliably estimated. Contingences are not recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position unless they have been acquired in a business combination.

2.23.
Trade payables and other liabilities

    Trade payables and other liabilities are obligations arising from the purchase of goods or services in the ordinary course of business and are recognized initially at fair value and are subsequently measured at their amortized cost using the effective interest method.

    Other liabilities are obligations not arising from the purchase of goods or services in the normal course of business and which are not treated as financing transactions.

    Advances received from customers are recognized as 'Trade payables and other current liabilities'.

2.24.
Foreign currency transactions

a)
Functional currency

      Financial statements of each subsidiary within the Group are measured and reported in the currency of the principal economic environment in which the subsidiary operates (subsidiary's functional currency). The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in euro, which is Abengoa's functional and reporting currency.

    b)
    Transactions and balances

      Transactions denominated in a currency different from the subsidiary's functional currency are translated into the subsidiary's functional currency applying the exchange rates in force at the time of the transactions. Foreign currency gains and losses that result from the settlement of these transactions and the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency at the year-end rates are recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement, unless they are deferred in equity, as occurs with cash-flow hedges and net investment in foreign operations hedges.

    c)
    Translation of the financial statements of foreign companies within the Group

      Income Statements and Statements of Financial Position of all Group companies with a functional currency different from the group's reporting currency (Euro) are translated to Euros as follows:

      1)
      All assets and liabilities are translated to Euros using the exchange rate in force at the closing date of the Financial Statements.

      2)
      Items in the Income Statement are translated into Euros using the average annual exchange rate, calculated as the arithmetical average of the average exchange rates for each of the twelve months of the year, which does not differ significantly from using the exchange rates of the dates of each transaction.

      3)
      The difference between equity, including profit or loss calculated as described in (2) above, translated at the historical exchange rate, and the net financial position that results from translating the assets, and liabilities in accordance with (1) above, is recorded in equity in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position under the heading 'Accumulated currency translation differences'.

F-39

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

      Results of companies carried under the equity method are translated at the average annual exchange rate calculated described in (2) above.

      Adjustments to the goodwill and the fair value that arise on the acquisition of a foreign company are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign company and are translated at the year-end exchange rate.

2.25.
Service concession arrangements

    As established in IFRIC 12, Service Concession Arrangements are public-to-private arrangements in which the public sector controls or regulates the service provided with the infrastructure and their prices, and it is contractually guaranteed to gain, at a future time, ownership of the infrastructure through which the service is provided. The infrastructures accounted for by the Group as concessions are mainly related to the activities concerning power transmission lines, desalination plants, cogeneration plants and certain thermo-solar electricity generation plants. The infrastructure used in a concession can be classified as a financial asset or an intangible asset, depending on the nature of the payment entitlements established in the agreement.

    The Group recognizes an intangible asset within 'Fixed assets in projects' to the extent that it has a right to charge final customers for the use of the infrastructure. This intangible asset is subject to the provisions of IAS 38 and is amortizable, taking into account the estimated period of commercial operation of infrastructure. The Group recognizes and measures revenue, costs and margin for providing construction services during the period of construction of the infrastructure in accordance with IAS 11 'Construction contracts' and revenue for other services in accordance with IAS 18 'Revenue'.

    Service Concession Arrangements are accounted for in accordance with the following criteria:

    1)
    Total construction costs, including associated financing costs, are recorded as intangible assets within 'Fixed assets in projects'. Profits attributable to the construction phase of the infrastructure are recognized using the percentage of completion method, based on the fair value assigned to the construction phase and the concession phase.

    2)
    The intangible asset is usually amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the concession.

    3)
    The amounts recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement during the period of the concession are as follows:

    Ordinary income: the annual updated concession fee income is recognized in each period.

    Operating costs: operating and maintenance costs and general overheads and administrative costs are charged to the Consolidated Income Statement in accordance with the nature of the cost incurred (amount due) in each period. Fixed assets are amortized as per point 2) above.

    Financial costs: financing costs and exchange rate differences arising from repayable debt denominated in foreign currencies are charged to the Consolidated Income Statement.

    4)
    At the end of each period, each project is tested for impairment if the invested costs are considered not recoverable.

F-40


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    In those concession agreements where the grantor of the concession is responsible for the payment of the operator's expenses and retains substantially all the legal risks associated with the concession, the asset arising from the construction phase of the project is reported as a non-current receivable within the line item Loans (non-current portion) under the non-current Financial accounts receivable caption of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, provided that it is possible to calculate the amount. The non-current receivable is measured at amortized cost in accordance with the effective interest rate method and gradually reduced during the term of the contract against the annual fees received (see also note 2.26.c). Interest calculated using the effective interest rate method is recognized within the line item 'Interest income from loans and debt', under the 'Finance income' caption of the Consolidated Income Statement.

2.26.
Revenue recognition

a)
Ordinary income

      Ordinary income comprises the fair value of sales of goods or services, excluding VAT or similar taxes, any discounts or returns and excluding sales between Group entities.

      Ordinary income is recognized as follows:

      Income from the sale of goods is recognized when the Group delivers the goods to the client, the client accepts them and it is reasonably certain that the related receivables will be collectible.

      Income from the sale of services is recognized in the period in which the service is provided.

      Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate method. When a receivable is considered impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount, discounting the estimated future cash flows at the original effective interest rate of the instrument and recording the discount as a reduction in interest income. Income from interest on loans that have been impaired is recognized when the cash is collected or on the basis of the recovery of the cost when the conditions are guaranteed.

      Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive payment is established.

    b)
    Construction contracts

      Costs incurred in relation to construction contracts are recognized when incurred. When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be reliably estimated, revenues are only recognized up to the amount of the costs incurred to date that are likely to be recovered.

      When the outcome of a construction contract can be reliably estimated and it is probable that it will be profitable, revenue from the contract is recognized over the term of the contract. When it is probable that the costs of the project will be greater than its revenue, expected loss is recognized immediately as an expense. To determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized in any period, the percentage of completion method is applied. The percentage of completion method considers, at the date of the Statement of Financial Position, the actual costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs for the entire contract. Costs incurred in the period which relate to future project activities are not included when determining the percentage of completion. Prepayments and certain other assets are recognized as inventories, depending upon their specific nature.

F-41


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

      Partial billing that has not yet been settled by the clients and withholdings are included under the Trade and other receivables heading.

      Gross amounts owed by clients for ongoing works in which the costs incurred plus recognized profits (minus recognized losses) exceed partial billing are presented as assets under the heading of 'Unbilled revenue' within 'Clients and other receivables' heading of the Statement of Financial Position.

      On the other hand, amounts outstanding from customers for work in progress for which the billing to date is greater than the costs incurred plus recognized profits (less recognized losses) are shown as liabilities within the line item 'Advance payments from clients' in the Trade payables and other current liabilities caption of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

      Lastly, as stated in point 2.4.2 on the measurement of property, plant and equipment in internal asset construction projects outside the scope of IFRIC 12 on Service Concession Arrangements (see Note 2.25), revenues and profits between group companies are eliminated, meaning that such assets are shown at their acquisition cost.

    c)
    Concession contracts

      Concession contracts are public-private agreements for periods usually between 20 and 30 years including both the construction of infrastructure and future services associated with the operation and maintenance of assets in the concession period.

      Revenues are obtained during the concession period via an annual charge payable by the grantor of the concession, which, in certain cases, is adjusted for inflation (see note 2.25 for revenue recognition). Typically the annual charge is updated based upon the official pricing index of the country and in the currency in which the fee is denominated and the fluctuations in local currency against a currency basket.

2.27.
Leases

    Lease contracts of fixed assets in which a Group company is the lessee and substantially retains all the risks and rewards associated to the ownership of the assets are classified as finance leases.

    Finance leases are recognized at inception of the lease at the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments over the contract term. Each lease payment is distributed between debt and financing costs, in a way which establishes a constant interest rate on the outstanding debt. The amounts to be paid over the lease term, net of financing costs, are recognized as non-current and current payables, as appropriate. The interest portion of the financing costs is charged to the Consolidated Income Statement over the period of the lease agreement, in order to obtain a constant periodic interest rate on the balance of the outstanding debt in each period. Assets acquired under finance lease agreements are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.

    Lease agreements undertaken by the Group in which the entity entering into the agreement does not substantially retain all the risks and rewards associated with the ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the Consolidated Income Statement (net of any incentives received from the lessor) on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

2.28.
Dividend distribution

    Dividends paid to the shareholders of the parent company of the Group are recognized as a liability in the period in which the dividend payment is approved by the shareholders.

Segment reporting

    Information on the Group's operating segments is presented in accordance with internal information provided to the Group's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The CODM, responsible for assigning resources and evaluating the performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the CEO and the Chairman.

    As described in Note 5, the CODM reviews the business by 7 operating segments (8 operating segments until the sale of shareholding in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U. (Befesa)) which are in turn grouped, for business purposes, into three activities: Engineering & Construction, Concession-type Infrastructures and Industrial Production.

    Geographically, the Group reports financial information by 6 regions which are Spain (home market), USA, Europe (excluding Spain), Latin America (excluding Brazil), Brazil and other (the remaining overseas markets).

    For detailed information on segment reporting, see Note 5.

2.30.  Environmental assets

    Equipment, installations and systems used to eliminate, reduce or control possible environmental impacts are recognized applying the same criteria used for other similar assets.

    Provisions made for environmental restoration, costs of restructuring and litigations are recognized when the company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it becomes probable that an outflow of resources will be necessary to settle the obligation and the outflow can be reliably estimated.

    Note 33.7 gives additional information on the Group's environmental policies.

2.31.  Severance payments

    Severance payments are made to employees in the event that the company terminates their employment contract prior to the normal retirement age or when the employee voluntarily accepts redundancy in the terms offered by the employer. The Group recognizes severance payments when it is demonstrably committed to third parties to provide indemnities for leaving the company or to dismiss the current workers in accordance with a detailed formal plan, with no possibility of retracting.

2.32.  Non-current Assets held for sale and discontinued operations

    The Group classifies property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and disposal groups (groups of assets that are to be sold together with their directly associated liabilities) as non-current assets held for sale when, at the date of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, an active program to sell them has been initiated by Management and the sale is foreseen to take place within the following twelve months.

    The Group includes in discontinued operations those business lines which have been sold or otherwise disposed of or those that meet the conditions to be classified as held-for-sale. Discontinued operations also include those assets which are included in the same sale program together with the business line. Entities which are acquired exclusively with a view for resale are also classified as discontinued operations.

F-43


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    Assets held for sale or disposal groups are measured at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less estimated costs necessary to sell them. They are no longer amortized or depreciated from the moment they are classified as non-current assets held for sale.

    Assets held for sale and the components of disposal groups are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position grouped under a single heading as 'Assets held for sale and discontinued operations'. Liabilities are also grouped under a single heading as 'Liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations'.

    The after-tax profit or loss on discontinued operations is presented in a single line within the Consolidated Income Statement under the heading 'Profit (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax'.


Note 3. — Critical accounting policies

        The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with IFRS requires to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most critical accounting policies, which reflect significant management estimates and judgment to determine amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements are:

    Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill

    Consolidation through de facto control

    Revenue from construction contracts

    Income taxes and recoverable amount of deferred tax assets

    Share-based payments

    Derivative financial instruments and hedging

    Concession agreements

        Some of these accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management to select the appropriate assumptions to determine these estimates. These assumptions and estimates are based on our historical experience, advice from experienced consultants, forecasts and other circumstances and expectations as of the close of the financial period. The assessment is considered in relation to the global economic situation of the industries and regions where the Group operates, taking into account future development of our businesses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty; therefore, actual results could materially differ from the estimates and assumptions used. In such cases, the carrying values of assets and liabilities are adjusted.

        As of the date of preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements, no relevant changes in the estimates made are anticipated and, therefore, no significant changes in the value of the assets and liabilities recognized at December 31, 2012 are expected.

        Although these estimates and assumptions are being made using all available facts and circumstances, it is possible that future events may require management to amend such estimates and assumptions in future periods. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8, in the Consolidated Income Statement of the year in which the change occurs. The Group significant accounting policies have been fully described in Note 2.

Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill

        Goodwill and Intangible assets which have not yet come into operation or that have an indefinite useful life are not amortized and are tested for impairment on an annual basis or whenever there is an impairment indicator. Goodwill is tested for impairment within the Cash-Generating Unit to which it belongs. Other intangible assets are tested individually, unless they do not generate cash flows independently from other assets, in which case they are tested within the Cash-Generating Unit to which they belong.

        For those cash generating units with high potential growth, the Group uses cash flow projections for a period of 10 years based on the cash flows identified in the Group's strategic plans, which are reviewed and approved every six months by the management of the Group. The residual value is calculated based on the cash flows of the latest year projected using a steady or nil growth rate. The use of a 10 year period is based on the consideration that this is the minimum period that needs to be used in order to appropriately reflect all the potential growth of these cash generating units. In addition, 10 years projections are prepared based on the historical experience within the Group in preparing long-term strategic plans, which are considered reliable and are prepared on the basis of the Group's internal control system. These cash flows are considered reliable since they can easily adapt to the changes of the market and of the business segment to which cash generating units belong, based on the Group's past experience on cash flows and margins and on future expectations.

        For other cash generating units the Group uses cash flows projections based on a period of 5 years, calculating the residual value based on the cash flows of the latest year projected, using a growth rate which does not exceed the long term rate for the market in which the cash generating units operates.

        Projected cash flows are discounted using the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (see Note 2.8), adjusted for the specific risks associated to the business unit to which the cash generating unit belongs.

        Based on values in use calculated in accordance with the assumptions and hypotheses described above and in Note 8 for the years 2012, 2011 and 2010, the recoverable amount of the cash generating units to which goodwill was assigned is higher than their carrying amount. Detailed sensitivity analysis has been carried out and the Management is confident that the carrying amount of the cash generating units will be recovered in full. Main variables considered in sensitivity analysis are growth rates, discount rates based in weighted average cost of capital (WACC) and the main variables of each business.

        During the years 2012, 2011 and 2010 there were no intangible assets with indefinite useful life or intangible assets not yet in use that were impaired.

Consolidation through de facto control

        De facto control describes the situation where an entity does not hold majority of the voting shares in another entity, but is deemed to have control for reasons other than potential voting rights, contract or the Bylaws.

        Judgment is required in applying the control concept to assess whether de facto control exists. The loss of de facto control in cases where applicable would not have a significant impact on the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of the Group.

Revenue from construction contracts

        Revenue from construction contracts is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method for contracts whose outcome can be reliably estimated and it is probable that they will be profitable. When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be reliably estimated, revenue is recognized only to the extent it is probable that contract costs incurred will be recoverable.

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

        As described in Note 2.26.b), the percentage of completion is determined at the date of every Consolidated Statement of Financial Position based on the actual costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs for the entire contract.

        Revenue recognition using the percentage-of-completion method involves the use of estimates of certain key elements of the construction contracts, such as total estimated contract costs, allowances or provisions related to the contract, period of execution of the contract and recoverability of the claims. The Company has established, over the years, a robust project management and control system, with periodic monitoring of each project. This system is based on the long-track experience of the Group in constructing complex infrastructures and installations. As far as practicable, the Group applies past experience in estimating the main elements of construction contracts and relies on objective data such as physical inspections or third parties confirmations. Nevertheless, given the highly tailored characteristics of the construction contracts, most of the estimates are unique to the specific facts and circumstances of each contract.

        Although estimates on construction contracts are periodically reviewed on an individual basis, we exercise significant judgments and not all possible risks can be specifically quantified.

        It is important to point out that, as stated in Note 2.4.2 on the measurement of property, plant and equipment, in the internal asset construction projects outside the scope of IFRIC 12 on Service Concession Arrangements (see Note 2.25), the totality of the revenues and profits between group companies is eliminated, meaning that said assets are shown at their acquisition cost.

Income taxes and recoverable amount of deferred tax assets

        Determining income tax expense requires judgment in assessing the timing and the amount of deductible and taxable items, as well as the interpretation and application of tax laws in different jurisdictions. Due to this fact, contingencies or additional tax expenses could arise as a result of tax inspections or different interpretations of certain tax laws by the corresponding tax authorities.

        Group Management assesses the recoverability of deferred tax assets on the basis of estimates of the future taxable profit. In making this assessment, Management considers the foreseen reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected taxable profit and tax planning strategies. This assessment is carried out on the basis of internal projections, which are updated to reflect the Group's most recent operating trends.

        The Group's current and deferred income taxes may be impacted by events and transactions arising in the normal course of business as well as by special non-recurring circumstances. Assessment of the appropriate amount and classification of income taxes is dependent on several factors, including estimates of the timing and realization of deferred tax assets and the timing of income tax payments.

        Actual collections and payments may materially differ from these estimates as a result of changes in tax laws as well as unforeseen future transactions impacting the income tax balances.

Share-based payments

        The Group maintains various share-based incentive plans for some of its managers and employees at parent and subsidiary companies level. The most significant of these plans was granted in 2005 making available to 99 managers of Abengoa linked to the achievement of certain business objectives. Based on its specific conditions, the share-based plan is considered a cash-settled share-based payment, by means of which the company rewards the services provided by the managers, incurring a liability for an amount based on the value of the shares.

F-46


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

        Note 29 to this Consolidated Report reflects the information detailing the expenses incurred from employee benefits.

        The fair value of the services received in exchange for the granting of the option is recognized as a personnel expense using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Certain inputs are used in the Black-Scholes model to generate variables such as the share price, the estimated return per dividend, the expected life of the option (5 years), the interest rates and the share market volatility, as appropriate.

        The total amount charged to expenses during the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of a hypothetical option to sell ('put') granted by the company to the managers, excluding the effect of the vesting conditions that are not market conditions, and including in the hypotheses only the number of options that are expected will become exercisable. In this regard, the number of options it is expected will become exercisable is considered in the calculation.

        The determination of the fair value of the services requires the use of estimates and certain assumptions. At the end of each financial year, the company revises the estimates of the number of options that are expected will become exercisable and recognizes the impact of this revision of the original estimates, where appropriate, in the Consolidated Income Statement. Changes in the estimates and assumptions used in the valuation model could impact the results of operations.

Derivatives and hedging

        The Group uses derivatives in order to mitigate risks arising from foreign exchange, interest rates and changes in the prices of assets and commodities purchased (principally zinc, aluminum, grain, ethanol, sugar and gas). Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date that the derivative contract is entered into, and are subsequently re-measured at fair value at each reporting date (see Note 2.10 and 2.19.1 for a full description of the accounting policy for derivatives).

        Contracts held for the purposes of receiving or making payment of non-financial elements in accordance with expected purchases, sales or use of goods (own-use contracts) of the Group are not recognized as financial derivative instruments, but as executory contracts. In the event that such contracts include embedded derivatives, those derivatives are recorded separately from the original contract, if the economic characteristics of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the economic characteristics of the original host contract. Options contracted for the purchase or sale of non-financial elements which may be cancelled through cash outflows are not considered to be 'own-use contracts'.

        The inputs used to calculate fair value of our derivatives are based on prices observable on not quoted markets, through the application of valuation models (Level 2). The valuation techniques used to calculate fair value of our derivatives include discounting estimated future cash flows, using assumptions based on market conditions at the date of valuation or using market prices of similar comparable instruments, amongst others. The valuation of derivatives and the identification and valuation of embedded derivatives and own-use contracts requires the use of considerable professional judgment. These determinations were based on available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Concession agreements

        The analysis on whether the IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities involves various complex factors and it is significantly affected by legal interpretation of certain contractual agreements or other terms and conditions with public sector entities.

F-47


Table of Contents

Consolidated financial statements

        Therefore, the application of IFRIC 12 requires extensive judgment in relation with, amongst other factors, (i) the identification of certain infrastructures (and not contractual agreements) in the scope of IFRIC 12, (ii) the understanding of the nature of the payments in order to determine the classification of the infrastructure as a financial asset or as an intangible asset and (iii) the recognition of the revenue from construction and concessionary activity.

        Changes in one or more of the factors described above may significantly affect the conclusions as to the appropriateness of the application of IFRIC 12 and, therefore, the results of operations or our financial position (see Note 10.1).


Note 4. — Financial risk management

        Abengoa's activities are undertaken through its operating segments and are exposed to various financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and capital risk.

        The risk management model attempts to minimize the potential adverse impact of such risks upon the Group's financial performance. Risk is managed by the Group's Corporate Finance Department, which is responsible for identifying and evaluating financial risks in conjunction with the Group's operating segments, quantifying them by project, region and company.

        Written internal risk management policies exist for global risk management, as well as for specific areas of risk, such as foreign exchange risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, the use of hedging instruments and derivatives and the investment of cash surpluses.

        In addition, there are official written management regulations regarding key controls and control procedures for each company and the implementation of these controls is monitored through internal audit procedures.

        The Group is affected by the following financial risks:

    a)
    Market risk

      Market risk arises when group activities are exposed fundamentally to financial risk derived from changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates and changes in the fair values of certain raw materials.

      To hedge such exposure, Abengoa uses currency forward contracts, options and interest rate swaps as well as future contracts for commodities. The Group does not generally use derivatives for speculative purposes.

      Foreign exchange rate risk: the international activity of the Group generates exposure to foreign exchange rate risk. Foreign exchange rate risk arises when future commercial transactions and assets and liabilities recognized are not denominated in the functional currency of the group company that undertakes the transaction or records the asset or liability. The main exchange rate exposure for the Group relates to the US Dollar against the Euro.

        To control foreign exchange risk, the Group purchases forward exchange contracts. Such contracts are designated as fair-value or cash-flow hedges, as appropriate.

        In the event that the exchange rate of the US Dollar had risen by 10% against the Euro as of December 31, 2012, with the rest of the variables remaining constant, the effect in the Consolidated Income Statement would have been a loss of €10,602 thousand (loss of €1,206 thousand in 2011 and profit of €24,522 thousand in 2010) mainly due to the

Consolidated financial statements

        US Dollar net liability position of the Group in companies with Euro functional currency and an decrease of €2,440 thousand (increase of €3,338 thousand in 2011 and increase of €10,897 thousand in 2010) in other reserves as a result of the cash flow hedging effects on highly probable future transactions.

        Details of the financial hedging instruments and foreign currency payments as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 are included in Note 14 of these Notes to these Consolidated Financial Statements.

      Interest rate risk arises mainly from financial liabilities at variable interest rates.

        Abengoa actively manages its risks exposure to variations in interest rates associated with its variable interest debt.

        In non-recourse financing (see Note 19), as a general rule, the Company enters into hedging arrangements for at least 80% of the amount and the timeframe of the relevant financing.

        In corporate financing (see Note 20), as general rule, 80% of the debt is covered throughout the term of the debt; in addition, in 2009 and 2010, Abengoa issued notes at a fixed interest rate.

        The main interest rate exposure for the Group relates to the variable interest rate with reference to the Euribor.

        To control the interest rate risk, the Group primarily uses interest rate swaps and interest rate options (caps and collars), which, in exchange for a fee, offer protection against an increase in interest rates.

        In the event that Euribor had risen by 25 basic points as of December 31, 2012, with the rest of the variables remaining constant, the effect in the Consolidated Income Statement would have been a profit of €4,004 thousand (profit of €15,923 thousand in 2011 and profit of €13,324 thousand in 2010) mainly due to the increase in fair value of interest rate caps, due to the time value of such caps designated as hedges and an increase of €52,163 thousand (increase of €44,077 thousand in 2011 and increase of €40,692 thousand in 2010) in other reserves as a result of the fair value increase of interest rate swaps, caps and collars designated as hedges.

        A breakdown of the interest rates derivatives as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is provided in Note 14 of these Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

      Risk of change in commodities prices arises both through the sale of the Group's products and the purchase of commodities for production processes. The main risk of change in commodities prices for the Group is related to the price of zinc, aluminum, grain, ethanol, sugar and gas.

        In general, the Group uses futures and options listed on organized markets, as well as OTC (over-the-counter) contracts with financial institutions, to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations.

        At December 31, 2012, if the price of zinc had increased by 10%, with the rest variables remaining constant, the effect in the Consolidated Income Statement would have been a profit of €3,900 thousand (profit of €2,174 thousand in 2011 and profit of €2,045 thousand in 2010) and a reduction in other reserves of €5,293 thousand

        (reduction of €13,468 thousand in 2011 and increase of €1,017 thousand in 2010) as a result of the cash flow hedging effects.

        At December 31, 2012, if the price of grain had increased by 10%, with the rest variables remaining constant, the effect in the Consolidated Income Statement would have been a loss of €35,092 thousand (null in 2011 and 2010) and a reduction in other reserves of €16,391 thousand (reduction of €2,661 thousand in 2011 and increase of €22,982 thousand in 2010) due to open derivative contracts primarily grain sales held by the Group.

        At December 31, 2012, if the price of ethanol had increased by 10%, with the rest variables remaining constant, the effect in the Consolidated Income Statement would have been a profit of €11,035 thousand (null in 2011 and 2010) and null impact in other reserves (increase of €969 thousand in 2011 and null impact in 2010) due to open derivative contracts primarily ethanol purchases held by the Group.

        A breakdown of the commodity derivative instruments as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is included in Note 14 to these Consolidated Financial Statements.

        In addition, certain Bioenergy Business Group companies engage in purchase and sale transactions in the grain and ethanol markets, in accordance with a management policy for trading transactions.

        Management has approved and supplemented trading strategies to control the purchase and sale of forward and swap contracts, mainly for sugar, grain and ethanol, which are reported on a daily basis, following the internal procedures established in the Transactions Policy. As a risk-mitigation element, the company sets daily limits or 'stop losses' for each strategy, depending on the markets in which it operates, the financial instruments purchased and the risks defined in the transaction.

        These transactions are measured monthly at fair value through the Consolidated Income Statement. In 2012, Abengoa recorded profit of €11,768 thousand (loss of €4,593 thousand in 2011 and profit of €12,305 thousand in 2010), €11,768 thousand of which related to profit on settled transactions (loss of €4,567 thousand in 2011 and profit of €11,061 thousand in 2010) and €0 thousand to open derivative contracts valued at the year ended (loss of €26 thousand in 2011 and profit of €1,244 thousand in 2010).

    b)
    Credit risk

      The main financial assets exposed to credit risk derived from the failure of the counterparty to meet its obligations are trade and other receivables, current financial investments and cash.

      a)
      Clients and other receivables (see Note 15).

      b)
      Current financial investments and cash (see Notes 13, 14, 15 and 17).

      Clients and other receivables: Most receivables relate to clients operating in a range of industries and countries with contracts that require ongoing payments as the project advances, the service is rendered or upon delivery of the product. It is a common practice for the company to reserve the right to cancel the work in the event of a material breach, especially non-payment.

        In general, and to mitigate the credit risk, as a requirement prior to any commercial contract or business agreement, the company generally holds a firm commitment from

F-50


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

        a leading financial institution to purchase the receivables through a non-recourse factoring arrangement. Under these agreements, the company pays the bank for assuming the credit risk and also pays interest for the discounted amounts. The company always assumes the responsibility that the receivables are valid.

        Abengoa derecognizes the factored receivables from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when all the conditions of IAS 39 for derecognition of assets are met. In other words, an analysis is made to determine whether all risks and rewards of the financial assets have been transferred, comparing the company's exposure, before and after the transfer, to the variability in the amounts and the calendar of net cash flows from the transferred asset. Once the company's exposure to this variability has been eliminated or substantially reduced, the financial asset has been transferred.

        In general, Abengoa considers that the most significant risk related to these assets within its activity is the risk of uncollectibility, since: a) trade receivables may be quantitatively significant during the progress of work performed for a project or service rendered; b) it would not be within the company's control. However, the risk of delays in payment is considered low in these contracts and typically relates to technical problems, i.e. associated with the technical risk of the service provided and, therefore, within the company's control.

        In any case, to hedge those contracts in which the possibility of a payment delay from the client, with no commercial justification, could theoretically be identified as a risk associated to the financial asset, Abengoa establishes that, not only should the risk of legal insolvency (bankruptcy, etc.) be covered, but also that of de facto or evident insolvency (arising from the client's management of its own cash, even though there is no 'general moratorium').

        If the company concludes that the risk associated to the contract has been transferred to the financial institution, the receivable is derecognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at the time it is transferred, in accordance with IAS 39.20.

        Taking into account this general policy of using non-recourse factoring, to have an accurate estimate of the Group's exposure to credit risk, it would be necessary to exclude from the accounts receivable balance unbilled revenues for which factoring arrangements exist, trade receivables not yet sent to factoring and receivables covered by credit insurance contracts.

        An ageing of trade receivables as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is included in Note 15 'Clients and other receivable accounts'. The same note also discloses the credit quality of the clients as well as the movement on provisions for receivables for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

      Financial investments: to control credit risk in financial investments, the Group has established corporate criteria which require that counterparties are always highly rated financial entities and government debt, as well as establishing investing limits with periodic review.

    c)
    Liquidity risk

      Abengoa's liquidity and financing policy is intended to ensure that the company keeps sufficient funds available to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Abengoa uses two main sources of financing:

      Non-recourse project financing, which is typically used to finance any significant investment (see Notes 2.5 and 19). The repayment profile of each project is established on the basis of the projected cash flow generation of the business, allowing for variability depending on whether the cash flows of the transaction or project can be forecast accurately. This ensures that sufficient financing is available to meet deadlines and maturities, which mitigates the liquidity risk significantly.

      Corporate Financing, used to finance the activities of the remaining companies which are not financed under the aforementioned financing model. This means of financing is managed through Abengoa S.A., which pools cash held by the rest of the companies so as to be able to re-distribute funds in accordance with the needs of the Group (see Notes 2.19 and 20) and to ensure that the necessary resources are obtained from the bank and capital markets.

      To ensure there are sufficient funds available for debt repayment in relation to its cash-generating capacity, the Corporate Financial Department annually prepares and the Board of Directors reviews a Financial Plan that details all the financing needs and how such financing will be provided. We fund in advance disbursements for major cash requirements, such as capital expenditures, debt repayments and working capital requirements. In addition, as a general rule, we do not commit our own equity in projects until the associated long term financing is obtained.

      Abengoa has maintained its financing needs covered for 2012 since it completed refinancing in 2012 of syndicated loans as well as new financing transactions in subsidiaries which have the support of export credit agencies. In addition, in January and February 2013 the Company has issued €400 million convertible notes due 2019 and €250 million ordinary notes due 2018 in order to extend its debt maturities (see Note 33.9).

      We aim to maintain our strong liquidity position, extend the debt maturities of our existing corporate loans and bonds, continue to access the capital markets from time to time, as appropriate, and further diversify our funding sources. We aim to continue to raise equity funding at the project company level through partnerships.

      In accordance with the foregoing, the sources of financing are diversified, in an attempt to prevent concentrations that may affect our liquidity risk.

      The expected sources of liquidity for the upcoming twelve months, estimated in approximately €11,471 million, comprise mainly cash and cash equivalents, other current assets (clients and other receivables and inventories), committed contributions from partners and non-recourse debt, undrawn credit lines and expected cash generated from operating activities during the next twelve months. These sources exceed the uses of liquidity expected for the upcoming twelve months, estimated in approximately €9,188 million, which comprise mainly debt maturities, forecasted interest payments and other current liabilities (trade payables, tax liabilities and provisions). The Company also intends to continue to rotate assets as part of our strategy when we consider that market conditions are adequate.

    d)
    Capital risk

      The Group manages capital risk to ensure the continuity of the activities of its subsidiaries from an equity standpoint by maximizing the return for the shareholders and optimizing the structure of equity and debt in the respective companies or projects.

      Since the admission of its shares to trade on the stock market, the company has grown in the following ways:

      Cash flows generated by conventional businesses;

      Financing of new investments through non-recourse financing, which also generates induced business for conventional businesses;

      Corporate financing, either through banks or capital markets;

      Issuance of new shares of subsidiaries through organized markets;

      Assets rotation or divestitures, such as the wind activity divestiture, divestiture of Telvent or the sale of mature concessional shares, such as the sale in two portions of certain transmission line concession activity in Brazil (for details see Note 6.2.b.).

      Capital increase carried out for €300 million in 2011.

      The leverage objective of the activities of the company is not measured based on the level of debt on own resources, but on the nature of the activities:

      For activities financed through Non-recourse Financing each project is assigned a leverage objective based on the cash and cash flow generating capacity, generally, of contracts that provide these projects with highly recurrent and predictable levels of cash flow generation.

      For activities financed with Corporate Financing, the objective is to maintain reasonable leverage, defined as three (3) times corporate Ebitda over Net Corporate Debt (excluding the Ebitda and the non-recourse financing).

Note 5. — Financial information by segment

5.1.
Information by business segment

    As indicated in Note 1, the Abengoa's activity is grouped under the following three activities which are in turn composed of seven operating segments (eight operating segments until the sale of Abengoa's shareholding in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U. (Befesa)) as defined by IFRS 8:

    Engineering and construction; includes our traditional engineering activities in the energy and water sectors, with more than 70 years of experience in the market as well as the development of solar technology.

      This activity comprises two operating segments:

      Engineering and construction — Abengoa is specialized in carrying out complex turn-key projects for thermo-solar plants, solar-gas hybrid plants, conventional generation plants, biofuels plants and water infrastructures, as well as large-scale desalination plants and transmission lines, among others. This activity covers the operating segment.

      Technology and other — This segment includes those activities related to the development of thermo-solar technology, water management technology and innovative technology businesses such as hydrogen energy or the management of energy crops.

    Concession-type infrastructures; groups together the company's proprietary concession assets that generate revenues governed by long term sales agreements, such as take-or-pay contracts, tariff contracts or power purchase agreements. This activity includes the operation of electric (solar, cogeneration or wind) energy generation plants and transmission lines. These assets generate low demand risk and we focus on operating them as efficiently as possible.

      This activity currently comprises four operating segments:

      Solar — Operation and maintenance of solar energy plants, mainly using thermo-solar technology;

      Transmission — Operation and maintenance of high-voltage transmission power line infrastructures;

      Water — Operation and maintenance of facilities aimed at generating, transporting, treating and managing water, including desalination and water treatment and purification plants;

      Cogeneration — Operation and maintenance of conventional cogeneration electricity plants.

    Industrial production; covers Abengoa's businesses with a commodity component, such as biofuels and industrial waste recycling (until the sale of shareholding in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U., see Note 7.1). The company holds an important leadership position in these activities in the geographical markets in which it operates.

      This activity comprises two operating segments (one operating segment from the sale of Abengoa's shareholding in Befesa):

      Biofuels — Production and development of biofuels, mainly bioethanol for transport, which uses cereals, sugar cane and oil seeds (soya, rape and palm) as raw materials.

      Recycling — Industrial waste recycling, principally steel dust, aluminum and zinc. This segment disappears after the sale of the shareholding in Befesa Medioambiente, S.L.U., which is presented as discontinued operations in these financial statements as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

    Abengoa's CODM assesses the performance and assignment of resources according to the above identified segments. The segment 'Technology and other' has been reclassified from the activity Industrial Production to Engineering and Construction, which reflects better the nature of its operations. The CODM in Abengoa considers the revenues as a measure of the activity and the EBITDA (Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) as measure of the performance of each segment. In order to assess performance of the business, the CODM receives reports of each reportable segment using revenues and EBITDA. Net interest expense evolution is assessed on a consolidated basis given that the majority of the corporate financing is incurred at the holding level and that most of the related assets are held at project companies which are financed through non-recourse project finance. The depreciation, amortization and impairment charges are assessed on a consolidated basis in order to analyze the evolution of net income and to determine the dividend pay-out ratio. These charges are not taken into consideration by CODM for the allocation of resources because they are non-cash charges.

    The process to allocate resources by the CODM takes place prior to the award of a new project. Prior to presenting a bid, the company must ensure that the non-recourse financing for the new project has been obtained. These efforts are taken on a project by project basis. Once the project has been awarded, its evolution is monitored at a lower level and the CODM receives periodic information (revenues and EBITDA) on each operating segment's performance.

Note 6. — Changes in the composition of the Group

6.1.
Changes in the consolidation Group

a)
In 2012 a total of 79 subsidiaries (26 in 2011 and 37 in 2010), 5 associates (1 in 2011 and 3 in 2010) and 9 joint ventures (3 in 2011 and 2 in 2010), were added to the consolidation group, which are identified in Appendices I, II, III, IV, XIII, XIV, XV, XVIII, XIX and XX of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

      These changes did not have a significant impact on the overall consolidated amounts in 2012, 2011 and 2010.

      As described in Note 2.1.3 the Group has applied IFRS 10, 11, 12 and amendments to IAS 27 and 28 in 2013, recasting the information presented in 2012 according to the transition guidance of this standard. As a result 5 companies previously considered as subsidiaries and 33 companies previously considered as joint ventures are treated as associates recorded under the equity method in 2012. The effect of the de-consolidation of the affected companies and their integration according to the equity method on the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2012 and on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 is shown in Note 2.1.3.

      In addition, during 2012, 14 Temporary joint operations (UTE) (39 in 2011 and 61 in 2010) have commenced their activity or have started to undertake a significant level of activity and were included in the consolidation group. These UTE contributed €90,637 thousand (€160,429 thousand in 2011 and €167,416 thousand in 2010) to the consolidated net sales.

      The amounts set out below represent the Group's proportional interest in the assets, liabilities, revenues and profits of the joint ventures (not fully owned by the Group) which have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements in 2011 and 2010:

   
  2011   2010  
 

Non-current assets

    1,320,212     428,412

      On the other hand, the amounts set out below represent the Group's proportional interest in the assets, liabilities, revenues and profits of the UTE which have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements in 2012, 2011 and 2010:

      Funds provided by Group companies to the only UTE excluded from the consolidation group (3 in 2011 and 123 in 2010) is nil (€2 thousand in 2011 and €241 thousand in 2010) and are recorded under 'Financial investments' in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Revenues of recorded UTE excluded from the consolidation accounted for 0.00% of the Group's consolidated revenues (0.02% in 2011 and 0.69% in 2010). Net income corresponding to those UTE is nil in 2012 (nil in 2011 and €898 thousand in 2010).

    b)
    In 2012 a total of 46 subsidiaries were no longer included in the consolidation group (84 in 2011 and 27 in 2010), 5 associates (2 in 2011 and 3 in 2010) and 7 joint ventures (3 in 2011 and 0 in 2010), which are identified in Appendices V, VI and VII and which did not have any material impact in the Consolidated Income Statement, except for disposals mentioned in Note 6.2b).

      During 2012, 33 UTE (147 in 2011 and 40 in 2010) were excluded from the consolidated group because they had ceased their activities or had become insignificant in relation to overall group activity levels. The proportional consolidated revenues of these UTE in 2012 were €271 thousand (€26,294 thousand in 2011 and €2,783 thousand in 2010).

    c)
    During 2012, Rioglass group, which was consolidated under the equity method until December 31, 2011, started to be fully consolidated due to the business combination conducted in this period (see Note 6.3).

      During 2011, no companies changed the method of consolidation due to a change in its shares with the exception of the Brazilian transmission line companies which were consolidated globally until November 30, 2011 and proportionally after the sale of the first portion and until the sale of the second portion on March 16, 2012 (see Note 6.2.b).

      During the year 2010, the Company changed its method of consolidation for Helioenergy 1 and 2 from full consolidation to proportional consolidation.

      On November 2, 2011, Abengoa reached an agreement with Qualitas Venture Capital (QVC) to acquire its 38% stake in the aluminum recycling business for €34 million, which resulted in a final 98.25% ownership by Abengoa in the aluminum recycling company on November 24, 2011, date on which approval was obtained from the competent authorities. In 2007 Abengoa and QVC integrated their respective aluminum waste recycling activities in the Abengoa division responsible for this business. The transaction gave Abengoa a 60.25% stake in the company.

      On October 8, 2010, Abengoa concessoes Brasil Holding, S.A., a subsidiary in the Engineering and Construction segment, closed a purchase agreement, which became effective on December 31, 2010 once the contractual obligations between the parties were met, at a price of €117 million, for the remaining 49.9% of the company STE Transmissora de Energia, S.A. held by Control y Montajes Industriales—CYMI, S.A. and for 49.99% of the company NTE Transmissora de Energia, S.A.

On July 2, we received €354 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the total price agreed for the shares. The gain from this sale has amounted to €4 million and is recorded in 'Other operating income' in the Consolidated Income Statements.

        Eléctrica, S.A. (TAESA) for the sale of 50% shares in the companies STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III, and 100% in NTE. The sale of said shares generated cash proceeds of €479 million and a gain of €45 million reflected in the section 'Other operating income' in the Consolidated Income Statement (€43 million after tax). Of the €45 million gain, €10.6 million is attributable to recognizing the investment retained at fair value at the date when control is lost, according to IAS 27, and the remaining €34.4 million correspond to the profit obtained in the sale.

Business combinations

    Rioglass Group was incorporated in 2006 as a joint venture between Abengoa and its former shareholders. The group manufactures and sells parabolic trough mirrors for thermo-solar plants, thanks to an exclusive technology developed internally which is specially remarkable due to specific techniques for manufacturing mirrors with tempered glass, very accurate automatic techniques for bending and mirroring and high reflectivity.

    Since the incorporation of Rioglass Group, thermo-solar energy has experienced a very high development worldwide. Global installed capacity has reached 2.615 MW in operation, mainly in Spain and the United States. Recently, we can appreciate a significant international expansion in other geographies, with plants in construction in the Middle East, Africa and India and with ambitious plans to develop new thermo-solar plants in several countries such as South Africa, Australia, China, India, Saudi Arabia and Chile.

    On January 16, 2012, Abengoa Solar, S.A. closed an agreement with Rioglass Laminar, S.L. to acquire an additional share of Rioglass Holding, S.A. With this acquisition and once the conditions for the closing were fulfilled, Abengoa Solar, S.A. became the majority shareholder of Rioglass Holding, S.L. and obtained control of the management of the group, a business which is key in its strategy of international expansion. As a result, Rioglass group, which was integrated proportionally, started to be fully consolidated.

    Since the business combination was achieved in stages, according to IFRS 3, the Company has remeasured its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value, which has consisted basically in the value of committed sales from Rioglass Group for the use of technology and mirrors, linked to relations and contracts existing with clients in the construction of thermo-solar plants in Spain, the United States, South Africa, Mexico and India. This valuation has represented a gain of €85,247 thousand.

    The difference between the fair value of the stake acquired in Rioglass group and the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, amounting to €38,919 thousand, has been recorded as Goodwill.

Sale of shares in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U.

    On April 18, 2013 the company reached an exclusive agreement with certain investment funds managed by Triton Partners to wholly transfer Abengoa's shareholding in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U.

    The sale agreement was signed on June 13, 2013, by which the agreed sale price was €1,075 million (considering the net debt adjustments, total consideration to Abengoa amounts to €620 million).

    The sale of this shareholding involves a cash deposit, received on July 15, 2013, of €331 million. The balance of the agreed payment, to complete the aforementioned figure of €620 million, will consist of:

    A deferred payment of €17 million (€15 million held as a deposit until ongoing litigations are resolved and €2 million in long-term receivables from a client of Befesa Medioambiente).

    A credit note of €48 million to mature in five years, accruing annual interest of 2% in the first year, 4% in the second, 6% in the third, 8% in the fourth and 12% in the fifth year, and payable at the expiration of each period.

    A deferred payment of €225 million through a convertible loan with 15 years maturity and subject to two extension options of five years each at the discretion of the venture capital fund. The loan's principal shall be settled with a single repayment at maturity and accrues interest at the 6-month Euribor rate applicable on the date the agreement comes into effect, plus a 6% spread, annual accrual and an option for the fund to capitalise the accrued interest and increase the loan or pay the interest at the end of each accrual period. Certain triggering events, which include Befesa's insolvency, a maximum net debt/ebitda ratio of 8.0 throughout the life of the convertible loan, and failure to meet certain financial objectives in the last three years of the 15-year loan (minimum expected operating cash flow, minimum cash coverage ratio of 1.3) would result in the automatic conversion of the loan into 14.06% of Befesa's

      shares. Furthermore, under certain scenarios of sale of Befesa by the fund, and conversion of the convertible loan into the 14.06% of Befesa's shares, the fund can require that Abengoa sells its 14.06% ownership together with the sale of the fund's ownership and under the same conditions applicable to the fund. In any case, if Abengoa does not receive such requirement from the fund, Abengoa can sell its 14.06% ownership coming from the conversion together with the remaining ownership sold by the fund and in this case the sale will be valid only if the acquirer also bought the 14.06%.

    On July 15, 2013, we received €331 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the price agreed for the shares and the sale transaction was definitely closed.

    Taking into account the significance of the activities carried out by Befesa to Abengoa, the sale of this shareholding is considered as a discontinued operation, in accordance with the stipulations and requirements of IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.

    In accordance with this standard, the results of Befesa until the closing of the sale and the result of this sale are included under a single heading in Abengoa's Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. Accordingly, the Company has also presented Befesa as a discontinued operation in these Consolidated Financial Statements as of December, 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, to make them comparable with the Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2013.

    For years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the breakdown of the Consolidated Income Statements related to Befesa, is as follows:

Sale of shares in Telvent GIT, S.A.

    On June 1, 2011, our 40% owned subsidiary ,Telvent GIT, S.A., entered into an acquisition agreement with Schneider Electric S.A., ('SE'), under which SE launched a tender offer to acquire all Telvent shares. Concurrently with the signing of the acquisition agreement between SE and Telvent, Abengoa entered into an irrevocable undertaking agreement with SE under which we agreed to tender our 40% shareholding in Telvent into the tender.

Consolidated financial statements

    SE launched the tender offer to acquire all Telvent shares at a price of $40 per share in cash, which represented a company value of €1,360 million, and a premium of 36% to Telvent's average share price over the previous 90 days prior to the announcement of the offer.

    The transaction was closed in September 2011, following completion of the usual closing conditions and once all of the regulatory authorizations had been obtained. The sale generated cash proceeds of €391 million and a total gain from discontinued operations of €91 million for Abengoa, reflected under the heading of 'Profit (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax' in the income statement for the twelve months ending in December 2011.

    Taking into account the significance of the activities carried out by Telvent GIT, S.A. to Abengoa, the sale of this shareholding was considered as a discontinued operation in accordance with the stipulations and requirements of IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, and therefore included under a single heading in the consolidated income statement for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2011.

    Likewise, the Consolidated Income Statements for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2010 which is included for comparative purposes in Abengoa's Consolidated Financial Statements also includes the reclassification of the results generated by the activities that are now considered to be discontinued under a single heading.

    Below is the Income Statement of Telvent GIT up to the date of sale and for the year 2010, and a detail of the heading 'Profit/(loss) for the year from discontinued operations' of the Consolidated Income Statement for the year 2011:

    Goodwill has remained stable: the increase arising from the business combination of the Rioglass group, by €38,919 thousand, has been offset by the negative effect of translation differences, arising mainly from the depreciation of the Brazilian real with respect to the Euro. Additionally, the business combination of Rioglass has caused that intangible assets identified in the purchase price allocation were recorded at fair value and fully consolidated, in accordance with IFRS 3, which explains the increase in the rest of the intangible assets (see Note 6.3), together with the progress in the construction of several thermo-solar plants in Spain (€172 million) and investment effort in research and development projects (see Note 8.4).

    During 2012 no significant losses for impairment of intangible assets were recorded.

    The increase in the cost of software and other programmes is mainly due to the reclassification made from 'Intangible assets in projects' to 'Intangible assets' after a subsidiary (DTN Company) cancelled its non-recourse financing during 2010. The movement of the exchange rate differences was mainly due to the appreciation of the Brazilian Real and the US Dollar against the Euro.

    During 2010 no significant losses for impairment of intangible Assets were deemed necessary.

Development assets

    During 2012, Abengoa made significant Research, Development and Innovation (R&D&i) investment efforts, investing a total of €91,260 thousand (€90,630 thousand in 2011 and €92,628 thousand in 2010) through the development of new technologies in different areas of business (solar technology,

    The year 2012 has been essential to consolidate Abengoa Research in the commitment of the Company for the technological development and innovation. Abengoa Research works, included within Abengoa activities of energy and environment, consist in research to generate knowledge, consultancy in complex technical problems and long-term technological development. In order to strengthen this activity, in 2012 the Office of patents and technological surveillance has been created, as a fundamental tool for industrial property protection of the Company. Currently, Abengoa has 78 patents registered and 125 patents under request process.

    The strategic technologies of the company also experienced an important progress: the main development asset stem from technologies intered for higher performance of concentrated solar power plants (CSP), for biorefineries, for the treatment of municipal solid wastes (MSW) for energy production, and for water treatment plants.

    Most relevant R&D projects carried out during the year 2012 have been, in the thermo-solar technology field, Solugas project, which is a demonstration tower plant with hybrid solar-gas technology. Its construction was finalized in May and it has been in operation since then. In addition, investments have been made to improve direct steam generation plants and in new materials for energy accumulation. In the biofuels segment, we can outline the construction of a pilot plant that produces bioetanol using municipal solid wastes (MSW) as raw material. In this plant, different types of MSW will be tested, in order to adapt technology to different geographies. Additionally, the construction of a pilot plant for the production of biobutanol has been started. This new technology has the advantage that it can use assets and equipment already existing in Abengoa, with no need of additional capital expenditures. Regarding zinc recycling business, investments were made to develop a new technology that permits to recover the zinc which is retained in the slag within the recycling process, improving the product recovery ratio. In the desalination program, we have continued improving efficiency, especially by reducing costs of membranes which are necessary for the reverse osmosis process.

    The expense for Research and development costs for the year ended December 31, 2010 amounted to €37,402 thousand.

    Property, plant and equipment cost has decreased in December 31, 2012 when compared to December 31, 2011 due to the dismantling of Rontealde (Vizcaya) desulfuration plant and to the reclassification from 'PP&E' to 'Intangible assets in projects' of the fixed assets related with the Mojave solar plant in the United States, once the construction of the plant has started after obtaining the project financing. This effect has been partially offset by the recognition of the Rioglass Group's business combination described in Note 6.3, which has resulted in the consolidation of 100% of the identifiable fixed assets of the group and its valuation at fair value in compliance with IFRS 3.

    During 2012, no significant losses from impairment of PP&E were recorded.

    The total decrease in the cost of fixed assets is mainly due to changes in the consolidation which occurred after the sale of the shares of Telvent GIT, S.A. (see Note 7.2) and to the reclassification of €123 million from 'PP&E' to 'Intangible fixed asset in projects' of the fixed assets related with the solar plant in the USA (Solana) upon obtaining the Federal Guarantee-backed non-recourse financing for US$1,450 million upon the completion of the previously established conditions.

    The decrease in the accumulated depreciation is mainly due to the reversal of impairment for €42 million recognized in past fiscal years on the lands acquired in the US in connection with the Mojave Solar Projects. Such impairment was reversed during the year 2011 as the US government, through its Department of Energy (DOE), granted Abengoa Solar a Conditional Commitment to issue a Federal Guarantee for US$1,202 million in relation to said project upon completing a series of previously established conditions. Since obtaining the conditional commitment represented an important milestone in the closing of the project financing and the development of the Mojave project within the agreements signed with the utility company, Management considered that the reasons considered to record the impairment had disappeared.

    The total decrease in the costs of PP&E was mainly due to the reclassification from 'PP&E' to 'PP&E assets in projects' of             €-515 million related to bioenergy assets in Brazil for which non-recourse financing was obtained (see Note 10.2). Also, the movements of the exchange rate differences were mainly due to the appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the Euro.

    The net decrease in the accumulated depreciation was mainly due to the reversal of the impairment recorded in past fiscal years on lands acquired in the United States for €28 million in connection with the Solana Solar Project given that the Management of the Group considered that the reasons for which the value impairment of the acquired assets was deemed probable had disappeared. In addition, the Company recorded during the year 2010 an impairment of €-11 million on its Mojave Solar Project, since at the end of 2010 it was not deemed probable that US DOE financing would be obtained for such project. Market value was determined based on the recent purchase price adjusted to take into consideration recent market trends, mainly the downturn of U.S. real estate market in the recent years.

      During 2012 concession assets increased due to Concession projects in process, mainly solar-thermal power plants in Spain (€511 million), as well as the cogeneration plant in Mexico (€97 million) and transmission lines in Brazil and Peru (€860 million). This increase was partially offset by the implementation of new standards IFRS 10 and IFRS 11 (€-1,375 million), retroactively applied from January 1, 2012 (see Note 2.1.2), and by the net negative effect of translation differences.

      No significant losses from impairment of 'Intangible assets in projects' were recorded during 2012.

      The increase in the cost of concession-type assets is mainly due to the progress in the construction of infrastructure concession assets, mainly the Solana thermosolar Solar plant in the US (€475 million), solar-thermal power plants in Spain (€877 million), the Cogeneration plant in Mexico (€164 million) and various transmission lines in Brazil and Peru (€696 million). In addition, as the Company began to apply IFRIC 12 to its thermosolar plants in Spain starting January 1, 2011, the carrying amount of such assets of €766 million was derecognized in 'PP&E in projects' and subsequently recognized at fair value in 'Intangible assets in projects' for an amount of €931 million.

      On the other hand, intangible assets in projects decreased mainly due to the changes that occurred in the consolidation after the sale of the shares the Brazilian transmission lines (see Note 6.2.b) and due to the movement of the exchange rate differences after the depreciation of the Brazilian Real and the appreciation of the US Dollar against the Euro.

      During 2011, no significant losses from impairment of 'Intangible assets in projects' were deemed necessary.

      The increase in the cost of the concession-type assets was mainly due to progress in the construction of Solar assets (SPP1 for €50 million), the Transmission Lines of Brazil, Peru and Mexico and the desalinating plants in Algeria for €745 million. In addition, the increase due to translation differences was mainly caused by the appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the Euro.

      During 2010, no significant losses from impairment of Intangible assets in projects were deemed necessary.

    d)
    Capitalized interest cost for the year ended December 31, 2012 amounts to €172,854 thousand (€156,185 thousand in 2011 and €44,866 thousand in 2010).

    e)
    There are no intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. There are no intangible assets restricted for use or pledged as security for liabilities.

      During 2012, the decrease of fixed assets in projects was mainly due to the implementation of the changes in IFRS 10 and IFRS 11 (€-132 million), retroactively applied from January 1, 2012 (see Note 2.1.2) and the negative effect of the depreciation of the Brazilian Real with respect to the Euro. This decrease was partially offset by the increased biological assets in the bioenergy business in Brazil.

      During 2012, no significant losses from impairment of PP&E in projects were recorded.

Consolidated financial statements

      The decrease in the total cost of the tangible assets is mainly due to the recognition of the carrying amount of the thermosolar plants in Spain amounting € -766 million and subsequently recognition at fair value in 'Intangible assets in projects' for an amount of €931 million, derived from the application of IFRIC 12 to such plants, as well as for the movement of the exchange rate differences after the depreciation of the Brazilian Real and the appreciation of the US Dollar against the Euro.

      In addition, there was an increase in assets amounting to €105 million following the start of the construction of the first commercial plant for biofuel from biomass, after Federal Guarantee was granted by the US Department of Energy (DOE) for its financing.

      During 2011, no significant losses from impairment of PP&E in projects were deemed necessary.

      The increase in PP&E assets in projects was mainly due to the progress in the construction of Solar assets in Spain and Algeria (€618 million), Bioenergy assets in the US (€82 million) and recycling and water assets in Spain and China (€82 million). In addition, the increase is due to the reclassification from 'PP&E' to 'PP&E in projects' of €515 million related to Bioenergy assets

        The information on the financial instruments measured at fair value, is presented in accordance with the following level classification:

a.
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

b.
Level 2: Measured on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

c.
Level 3: Measured on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

        The following is a breakdown of the Group's assets and liabilities measured at fair value at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (except assets and liabilities with a carrying amount close to their fair value, non-quoted equity instruments measured at cost and contracts with components that cannot be measured reliably):

All necessary notifications have been made to the companies in which the Group holds an interest of over 10%, as required under Article 155 of Spanish Corporate Law (Ley de Sociedades de Capital).

13.4.
There are no circumstances which have a material impact on the financial assets on the Group's portfolio, such as litigations, pledges, etc.

13.5.
There are no firm agreements in place regarding the sale or purchase of these investments which could be considered material in relation to the Group's Financial Statements.

13.6.
The amount of interest accrued but not yet collected is not material.

13.7.
There are no fixed-yield securities in arrears. The average rate of return on fixed-yield securities is in line with the market.

13.8.
As of December 31, 2012, 2011and 2010, Abengoa, S.A. held a 3% interest in Yoigo, S.A, a Spanish telecom operator, recorded at a cost of €32,997 thousand and held in the Group through the ownership of Siema Investments, S.L. (a holding company owned 100% by Abengoa, S.A.). Additionally the shareholders of Yoigo have granted this company several 'participative' loans in accordance with a pre-established plan, which involved a total disbursement of €21,030 thousand in 2011 (as of December 31, 2012 y 2011), equivalent to 3% of the total loan made to the company by its shareholders in said years.

    To value this holding, as in prior periods, once Yoigo's activities had commenced, the principal reference point taken is the company's future cash-flow generation on the basis of its current Business Plan, discounted at a rate appropriate to the sector in which this company operates.

    As a result of the purchase of its holding in Yoigo, Siema Investment, S.L. became responsible, for furnishing guarantees to the Spanish Administration as security for compliance with the commitments relating to investment, commercialization, employment and network development acquired by Yoigo, together with other guarantees relating to the Radioelectronic Spectrum Rate, which the Group is required to counter-guarantee, for a total amount of €12,085 thousand (€12,085 thousand in 2011 and 2010).

13.9.
The Group applies IAS 39 to determine whether the carrying amount of an available-for-sale financial asset has been impaired. This process requires significant judgment. To make this judgment, the Group assesses, among other factors, for how long and to what extent the fair value of an investment will be below its cost, considering the financial health and short-term prospects of the company issuing the securities, including factors such as the industry and sector return, changes in the technology and cash flows from operating and financing activities.

          11,500     54,200     67,349     78,604     21,321     91,443  

    Derivatives classified as non-hedge accounting are those derivative financial instruments which, although obtained for the purpose of hedging certain market risks (interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices), do not meet the specific requirements established by IAS 39 to be designated as hedging instruments from an accounting point of view (since, at the inception of the hedge, there was no designation or formal documentation relating to the hedge or the risk management strategy that it was intended to implement) or, having complied with all of the requirements to be designated a hedging instrument, the underlying has been sold or the hedging designation has been interrupted.

    Fair value of derivative assets decreased during 2012 due to the decrease in fair value of call options on Abengoa own shares that were signed to hedge the convertible notes, mainly due to a decrease in the stock price of the shares of Abengoa, which is a principal factor in the evaluation of the embedded derivatives and the options, and to the decrease in the fair value of commodity and interest rate derivatives.

    On the other hand, fair value of derivative liabilities has increased due to the increase in negative interest rate derivatives, which was partially offset by the decrease in fair value of commodity and by the decrease in fair value of the derivative liabilities embedded in the convertible notes issued in 2009 and 2010, described in Note 20.3.

14.3.
Interest rate hedges

    As stated in Note 4 to these Consolidated Financial Statements, the general hedging policy for interest rates is to purchase call options in exchange of a premium to fix the maximum interest rate cost. Additionally, under certain circumstances, the company also uses floating to fixed interest rate swaps.

    As a result, the notional amounts hedged, strikes contracted and maturities, depending on the characteristics of the debt on which the interest rate risk is being hedged, can be diverse:

    Corporate Financing: we hedge between 66% and 100% of the notional amount, with maturities up to 2021 and average guaranteed interest rates of between 1.05% and 4.75% for loans referenced to the 1-month and 3-month Euribor rates.

    Non-recourse financing;

      Non-recourse financing in Euros: we hedge between 75% and 100% of the notional amount, maturities until 2032 and average guaranteed interest rates of between 2.00% and 5.25%.

      Non-recourse financing in US Dollars: we hedge between 80% and 100% of the notional amount, including maturities until 2028 and average guaranteed interest rates of between 0.35% and 5%.

      At the end of 2012, 2011 and 2010, the net amount of the fair value of interest rate derivatives charged directly to the Consolidated Income Statement as a result of not meeting all the requirements of IAS 39 to be designated as hedges represented an impact of €-4,305 thousand, €2,104 thousand and €-1,883 thousand, respectively (see Note 30.1).

      Additionally, a series of interest rate swaps and caps were settled in 2008, generating a positive cash flow upon liquidation. These contracts had been designated as cash flow hedge as a result of the respective effectiveness tests performed. Therefore, applying IAS 39, when the hedging instrument no longer exists and the hedged transaction continues to be probable, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that remains recognized in equity from the period when the hedge was effective should remain in equity until the forecasted transaction occurs. This amount will be reclassified to profit or loss in the same period or periods in which the hedged forecasted transaction affects profit or loss. In the present case, it will be reclassified to profit or loss as the finance expense originated by the loan hedged is recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement. As a result, Abengoa will reclassify the profit recognized in equity to the Consolidated Income Statement following the swaplet method, where each interest rate calculation period of the swap is called a swaplet. The basis of this method is that the amount recognized in equity will be equivalent to the sum of the present value of the cash flows of each swaplet (i.e. the difference between the fixed rate and the

F-97


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

      forward rate calculated for each swaplet at the last date on which the hedge was effective, discounted to the date when hedge accounting was discontinued).

      The balance calculated for each swaplet is recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement in the period of each swaplet. The amounts transferred from equity to the Consolidated Income Statement in 2012, 2011 and 2010 were a gain of €7,695 thousand, €10,095 thousand and €8,082 thousand, respectively, with an amount of €1,032 thousand (€8,727 thousand in 2011 and €18,822 thousand in 2010) yet to be transferred to the Consolidated Income Statement in the following years.

Commodity price hedges

    In relation to hedges of commodity prices, as stated in Note 2.10 of the Consolidated Financial Statements of Abengoa for the year ended on December 31, 2012, the different activities carried on by Abengoa through its different segments (Biofuels, Recycling (until the sale of shareholding in Befesa) and Engineering and construction) expose the group to risks derived from the fair value of certain commodity prices (zinc, aluminum, grain, ethanol and gas).

    To hedge these risks, Abengoa uses derivative contracts and OTC derivatives for commodity prices.

    The most significant variations for the year 2012 are due to the recognition of doubtful trade receivables mainly related to water infrastructure projects as well as other minor engineering and construction projects.

    The most significant variations for the year 2011 are mainly due to changes in the consolidation which occurred after the sale of the shares of Telvent GIT, S.A.

    The most significant variation for the year 2010 is the recognition of a bad debt provision in the Engineering and Construction segment for receivables that were not considered recoverable.

15.7.
The Company maintains a number of non-recourse factoring lines of credit. The Company enters into these factoring agreements with certain financial institution by selling the Company's credit rights in certain commercial contracts. The factoring agreements are entered into on a non-recourse basis, meaning that the financial institutions undertake the credit risk associated with the Company's

    customers. The Company is responsible for the existence and legitimacy of the credit rights being sold to the financial institutions. Credit rights from recurring customers or with terms of up to one year are supported by annual revolving factoring lines of credit. Credit rights from non-recurring customers or with terms longer than a year are supported with global transfer agreements commencing on the date when the underlying commercial contract comes into force and expiring when the contracted works are completed.

    At the end of the 2012 financial year, approximately €360 million (€346 million in 2011 and €568 million in 2010) were factored and derecognized pursuant to the provisions of IAS39. Additionally there were €196 million (nil in 2011 and 2010) related to the construction agreement of a 640 MW electricity plant in Mexico, which has been assigned to a financial institution. The value of this contract will be settled directly by the customer to the financial institution at the provisional reception of the plant. As a result, Abengoa is effectively being paid according to completion of milestones of the construction works, which is customary practice in EPC contracts.

    The finance cost in the 2012 fiscal year derived from factoring operations amounted to €44 million (€20 million in 2011 and €23 million in 2010).

Consolidated financial statements

    On September 30, 2012, the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting approved a capital increase of 430,450,152 class B shares with a nominal value of €0.01per share, charged to our freely available reserves, which have been distributed for no consideration to all existing shareholders on the basis of four class B shares for each class A share or class B share which they hold ('the Capital increase'). Therefore, no dilution or further concentration with respect to our share capital occurred.

    The General Shareholders' Meeting approved a right of voluntary conversion for the class A shareholders to convert their class A shares with a nominal value of 1 Euro into class B shares with a nominal value of 0.01 Euros during pre-set windows until December 31, 2017. Following the exercise of this right, after each conversion window, .a capital reduction has taken place and will take place, by reducing the par value of a number of class A shares to be determinated by 0.99 euros per share, by creating a non-available reserve.

    Since the approval by the General Shareholder's Meeting of the afore-mentioned conversion right of class A shares into class B shares, four capital conversions have taken place after four conversion windows periods; the last one has finalized on January 15, 2013.

    After such capital conversions the share capital as of January 22, 2013 after the end of the fourth conversion period amounts to €89,513,059.35 represented by two distinct classes of 538,062,690 shares completely subscribed and disbursed: 84,982,255 class A shares and 453,080,435 class B shares.

    Abengoa's shares are represented by book entries. Class A and B shares are listed on the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchange and on the Spanish Stock Exchange Electronic Trading System (Electronic Market). Class A shares have been listed since November 29, 1996 and class B shares since October 25, 2012. The Company presents mandatory financial information on a quarterly and semiannual basis.

    In the context of the such Capital increase, Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. ('Inversión') has undertaken not to sell ('lock-up') Abengoa shares for a period of six months from the date on which the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting was held. Additionally, Inversión has undertaken to (i) limit its right to vote to the 55.93% of total voting rights and (ii) that the percentage of voting shares held by Inversión (whether they are class A shares or class B ordinary shares) over the total shares of the Company shall at no time be lower than one fourth of the percentage of voting rights that those shares provide to Inversión, with respect to the total voting rights in the Company, meaning that its voting rights may not exceed four times its economic rights. Should that threshold be exceeded, Inversión will transfer class A ordinary shares, or convert class A shares into class B shares, in such number as may be necessary to maintain such proportion.

    In accordance with notifications received by the company and in compliance with reporting requirements to communicate shareholding percentages and the information received from relevant parties, shareholders with a significant holding as of December 31, 2012 are as follows:

    At the same time, Abengoa issued 4,020,124 warrants of class B shares, at an exercise price of €0.01, which are transmissible, and which shall afford FRC the right to subscribe a class B share from Abengoa for each warrant and to receive a cash sum equivalent to the dividend per share and other distributions, for a period of 5 years. As a consequence of the distribution of class B shares approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting held on September 30, 2012, FRC received 16,080,496 warrants of class B shares, at an exercise price of €0.01.

Note 19. — Non-recourse financing (project financing)

        As indicated in Note 2.2, there are certain entities within the Group for which, in general, the main commercial purpose is the long-term development of integrated products which are financed through non-recourse project finance. This note outlines the non-recourse financing linked to the assets included in Note 10 of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

        Non-recourse financing is generally used for constructing and/or acquiring an asset, exclusively using as guarantee the assets and cash flows of the company or group of companies carrying out the activities financed. In most of the cases, the assets and/or contracts are set up as guarantee to ensure the repayment of the related financing.

        Compared to corporate financing, non-recourse financing has certain key advantages, including a greater leverage period permitted and a clearly defined risk profile.

    During 2012 the increase in non-recourse financing was mainly due to drawings in relation to transmission lines amounting €459 million. In addition, €217 million were drawn in relation with new solar projects and €48 million in relation to the co-generation project in Tabasco, Mexico. On the other hand, non-recourse financing decreased due to de-consolidation of companies resulting from the initial application of IFRS 10 and 11 as of January 1, 2012 (€635 million), and due to translation differences (€-184 million decrease) mainly caused by the depreciation of Brazilian real with respect to the euro.

    4,982,975     407,135     5,390,110  
                 

    The increase occurred in 2011 was mainly due to new financing obtained for the development of new projects in connection with the solar activity for €1,046 million (€439 million for a thermosolar project in the US and €607 million for thermosolar projects in Spain), to the transmission line activities (Brazil) for €232 million, to the cogeneration activities for €147 million and to the zinc recycling activities for €300 million.

    A decrease also occurred mainly due to the financing of the Brazilian Lines companies in the proportional part of the percentage sold for €-249 million (see Note 6.2.b), to the cancellation of the debt previously owned by Befesa Zinc, S.A. with the new financing obtained as indicated above

    The increase that occurred during the 2010 fiscal year was mainly due to the new financing obtained for specific projects in connection with the Engineering and Construction activity (€338 million for the energy transmission lines in Brazil and Peru), with the Solar activity for projects in Spain (€381 million), with the Bioenergy activity (€81 million for cogeneration projects in Brazil) as well as due to the effect of an increase of €156 million produced mainly from the effect of the exchange rate differences brought about by the revaluation of the Brazilian Real and the US Dollar against the Euro.

19.6.
Non-recourse project finance applied to projects also includes Non-Recourse Finance in Process. This relates to certain operations which are financed in a similar manner to non-recourse projects, generally by financial entities, and which are earmarked to be future development projects which typically will eventually be financed through non-recourse project finance. Receiving finance in process is in effect similar to receiving traditional customer prepayments during various early phases of construction of a project; Non-recourse finance in process varies slightly from traditional prepayments, however, in that it is not received from customers but from a financial entity. Such funding typically relates to transitional financing phases of a project (typically periods of less than 2-3 years) during the launch and construction phase of goods/projects which once completed and ready for operation become financed under the non-recourse project finance model (See Note 2.5).

    However, if during the transitory period there is a risk of non-compliance with the debt repayment schedule necessary for the formalization of Project Finance (or of construction, which will ultimately

Funds are progressively drewdown until July 2013.

      With the aim of minimizing the volatility in interest rates of financial operations, specific contracts are signed to hedge the possible variations that may occur (See Note 14).

      The long-term syndicated financing loans are raised for the purposes of financing investments and general financing requirements of Abengoa, S.A. and all the companies of the group without non-recourse financing.

      On April 27, 2012, the Company signed the refinancing and syndication of €1,566,210 thousand of its long term corporate debt. The refinancing was led by a group of national and international entities, which acted as arrangers and bookrunners for the transaction. On May 22, 2012 and according to the option included in the contract, the principal amount was increased by €47,000 thousand and on July 11, 2012 it was additionally increased by €50,000 thousand, so the refinancing amounts to 1,663,210 thousand as of December 31, 2012. The refinancing was supported by 37 international financial institutions.

      The new Forward Start Facility is divided in two tranches: Tranche A amounting € 1,350,723 thousand and Tranche B, amounting to €312,487 thousand. Part of tranches A and B were drawn for the purpose of repaying and extinguishing certain syndicated credit facilities agreements borrowed in 2005 and 2006 as well as making a partial repayment under the 2010 Forward Start Facility, in each case on July 20, 2012. In addition, certain amounts under the 2012 Forward Start Facility will be utilized, along with other funds, to repay and extinguish the 2010 Forward Start Facility in July 2013. The new Forward Start Facility can only be drawn with the purpose of repaying the 2010 Forward Start Facility on its repayment dates. As of December 31, 2012, borrowings under the 2012 Forward Start Facility amounted to €551 million.

      The Company also has amounts outstanding under a forward start facility agreement maturing in 2013 dated April 22, 2010 borrowed by Abengoa and jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior basis by certain companies of the Group (the '2010 Forward Start Facility'). On April 27, 2012, the Company signed the 2012 Forward Start Facility described above which made available to us certain tranches by which we can make partial repayments under the 2010 Forward Start Facility, which has had the effect of extending the maturity of our syndicated facilities. Our 2005 Credit Facility and 2006 Credit Facility were extinguished and a partial

      repayment under the 2010 Forward Start Facility was made on July 20, 2012, when we made a repayment of €556 million utilizing drawdowns under the 2012 Forward Start Facility and cash on hand. As of December 31, 2012, borrowings under the 2010 Forward Start Facility amounted to €1,278 million.

      The table below shows the maturity of the corporate syndicated financing before and after this refinancing until the issuance of these financial statements:

      Interest rate applicable to both tranches is Euribor plus a margin of 3.75% until January 20, 2013, 4.00% until January 2015 and 4.25% until July 2016.

      In addition, the bilateral loans with the Official Credit Institute (ICO) and the European Investment Bank (EIB) are aimed at financing specific investment programs, more notably overseas programs, as well as R&D&i programs.

      On July 11, 2012, the €150 million bilateral facilities loan with the Instituto de Crédito Oficial originally signed on July 18, 2007 was amended and restated. The bilateral facilities loan now matures on July 18, 2016, with annual repayments starting in 2014.

      In addition, some subsidiaries of Abengoa S.A. undersigned long-term loans with various entities, including two financing agreements signed with a group of financing entities backed by an EKN (Swedish Export Credit Agency) guarantee to finance industrial machinery in various projects:

      A €247.7 million Swedish law credit facility maturing in 2020 dated March 2, 2010 borrowed by Instalaciones Inabensa S.A. (the 'Swedish Credit Agreement'). On December 10, 2010, this loan was increased in the amount of €128.8 million. As of December 31, 2012, borrowings under this agreement amounted to                           €303 million .

      A €299.3 framework facility agreement dated August 11, 2010 as amended on October 19, 2010 and January 25, 2012 borrowed by Abener Energia, S.A. and jointly and severally guaranteed by Abengoa (the 'Framework Facility Agreement'). Sixteen individual loan agreements have been borrowed under the Framework Facility Agreement amounting to €269.4 million maturing between 2018 and 2022. As of December 31, 2012, borrowings under this agreement amounted to €198 million.

      To ensure that the Company has sufficient funds to repay the debt with respect to its capacity to generate cash flow, Abengoa has to comply with a Corporate Net Debt/EBITDA financial ratio with the financial institutions.

      According to the financing agreements, the maximum limit of this ratio is 3.0 for the years 2012, 2013 and until December 30, 2014 and 2.5 starting December 31, 2014. As of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, Corporate Net Debt/EBITDA financial ratio was 1.80, 0.14 and 1.77 respectively, according to the conditions of the financing agreements.

    c)
    As of December 31, 2012 the debt repayment calendar was as set out in the following table, which has been modified after the convertible notes issuance in January 2013, amounting to €400 million,

    As described in Note 2.19.1 in Significant accounting policies, in accordance with IAS 32 and 39 and the Terms and Conditions of the issuance, since Abengoa has a contractual right to choose the type of settlement and one of these possibilities is paying through a variable number of shares and cash, the conversion option qualifies as an embedded derivative. Thus, the convertible bonds are considered a hybrid instrument, which includes a component of debt and an embedded derivative for the conversion option held by the bondholder.

    Convertible notes 2014

    On July 24, 2009, Abengoa, S.A. issued Convertible Notes, convertible into ordinary shares, to qualified investors and institutions in Europe for the amount of €200 million. The terms and conditions of the issuance are currently as follows:

    a)
    The Notes were issued for two hundred million Euros (€200 million) with maturity set at five (5) years.

    b)
    The Notes accrue a fixed annual interest of 6.875% payable semiannually.

    c)
    The 2014 Convertible Notes are convertible into fully paid class A shares or class B shares of Abengoa, subject to certain liquidity conditions, credited in the number determined by dividing the aggregate nominal amount of the Notes by the applicable conversion price. The conversion price was initially set at €21.12 per ordinary share of Abengoa and was adjusted to €20.84 per share in July 2012 following a dividend payment (€0.35 per share) in excess of the dividend threshold permitted without adjustment in the conversion price (€0.21 per share). In October 2012, the conversion price was adjusted to €4.17 per share of Abengoa due to the distribution of class B shares as approved by the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting held on September 30, 2012.

    d)
    Pursuant to the Terms and Conditions, in the event that investors decide to exercise their right of conversion, the Company may decide to settle the issuance entirely in shares, in cash or in a combination of shares and cash.

    The carrying value amount of the liability component of this note at December 31, 2012 amounted to 178,720 thousand (€167,267 thousand at December 31, 2011).

    Additionally, at December 31, 2012, the fair value of the derivative liability embedded in the convertible bond is €21,313 thousand, while its fair value as of December 31, 2011 amounted to €46,101 thousand. The decrease in fair value has been recorded as an income amounting to €24,788 thousand in 'Other net finance income/expense' in the Consolidated Income Statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 (€4,360 thousand in 2011 and €22,450 thousand in 2010), see Note 30.3.

    The key data for the valuation model were the share price, the estimated profitability of the dividend, an envisaged option maturity life, an interest rate and underlying volatility as set out in the table below:

    Furthermore, in order to partially hedge the derivatives embedded in the notes convertible, during the years 2011 and 2010 the Company purchased two call options over 7,000,000 Abengoa's own shares with a strike price of €21.125 per share, maturing on July 24, 2014 (over 35,000,000 Abengoa's shares with a strike price of €4.22 after the distribution of class B. shares approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting held on September 30, 2012).

    These options hedge around 73% of the notes in the event of conversion.

    Convertible notes 2017

    On February 3, 2010, Abengoa, S.A. issued Convertible Notes, convertible into ordinary shares, to qualified investors and institutions for the amount of €250 million. The terms and conditions of the issuance are currently as follows:

    a)
    The Notes were issued for two hundred million Euros (€250 million) with maturity set at five (7) years.

    b)
    The Notes accrue a fixed annual interest of 4.5% payable semiannually.

    c)
    The 2017 Convertible Notes are convertible into fully paid class A shares or class B shares of Abengoa, subject to certain liquidity conditions, credited in the number determined by dividing the aggregate nominal amount of the Notes by the applicable conversion price. The conversion price was initially set at €30.27 per ordinary share of Abengoa and was adjusted to €29.87 per share in July 2012 following a dividend payment (€0.35 per share) in excess of the dividend threshold permitted without adjustment in the conversion price (€0.21 per share). In October 2012, the conversion price was adjusted to €5.97 per share of Abengoa due to the distribution of class B shares as approved by the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting held on September 30, 2012.

    d)
    Pursuant to the Terms and Conditions, in the event that investors decide to exercise their right of conversion, the Company may decide to settle the issuance entirely in shares, in cash or in a combination of shares and cash.

    The carrying value amount of the liability component of this bond at December 31, 2012 amounted to 191,516 thousand (€180,894 thousand at December 31, 2011).

    Additionally, at December 31, 2012, the fair value of the derivative liability embedded in the convertible bond is €39,306 thousand, while its fair value as of December 31, 2011 amounted to €56,191 thousand. The decrease in fair value has been recorded as an income amounting to €16,885 thousand in 'Other net finance income/expense' in the Consolidated Income Statement for the year ended December 31, 2012 (€3,194 thousand in 2011 and €22,185 thousand in 2010), see Note 30.3.

    Furthermore, in order to partially hedge the derivatives embedded in the notes convertible, during the years 2011 and 2010 the Company purchased two call options over 7,100,000 Abengoa's own shares with a strike price of €30.27 per share, maturing on February 3, 2017 (over 35,500,000 Abengoa's own shares with a strike price of €6.05 after the distribution of class B shares approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting held on September 30, 2012).

    These options hedge around 85% of the notes in the event of conversion.

    The fair value of the options at December 31, 2011, calculated using the Black-Scholes model, was €21,204 thousand, while the fair value was €4,065 thousand at December 31, 2012. The decrease in fair value has been recorded as a finance expense amounting to €17,139 thousand recorded in 'Other net finance income/expense' in the Consolidated Income Statement (€17,812 thousand in 2011 and €1,717 thousand in 2010), see Note 30.3.

    The provision for dismantling costs has increased in 2012 mainly due to the construction of thermo-solar plants. The dismantling provision is capitalized as a cost of the plant either during the construction period or when the plant enters into operation, depending on the nature of the obligations assumed in each case.

    The most significant variations of 2011 are mainly related to the increase of €9 million for the purpose of covering adequately tax risks, liabilities and dismantling obligations and due to the reduction caused by the reversal of €15 million of provisions, set up during previous years since the reversal was

    considered advisable given its current classification as remote contingent liabilities or since the risk for which they were set up had materialized.

    In addition, €14.8 million have been reclassified from the Taxes provision to Other loans and borrowings once a payment schedule has been arranged and €17 million have been reclassified from Liabilities provision to long-term Personnel liabilities given that they correspond to long term compensation liabilities. These two movements have been included in the line 'Reclassifications and other movements' because they did not have any impact in our consolidated income statement.

    Finally, the line item 'Reclassifications and other movements' in 2011 includes a provision recorded for dismantling costs included in the carrying amount of fixed assets related to plants within the Solar operating segment for an amount of €15 million.

    The provision accrued in 2010 for an amount of €14 M was set for with the aim of having the necessary coverage against tax risks, responsibilities and dismantling obligations mainly related to Engineering and Construction, Biofuels and Recycling segments respectively. Also, there was a reversal of provisions in the amount of €-12 M accrued for in previous years since the reversal was considered advisable given its current classification as remote contingent liabilities or since the risk for which it was set up had materialized. In addition, the total reclassification of €11,678 thousand related to better present the Company's financial position, according to the nature of the specific liabilities.

    Provision for tax and legal contingencies

    This provision represents the Group's best estimates in connection with risks relating to tax contingencies arising during the normal course of the Group's business, fundamentally in Latin America, when it is considered probable that there will be an outflow of resources in the medium or long term (which has been estimated being comprised in a period between 2 to 5 years or over 5 years), although the development of the contingencies and the new facts and circumstances that may arise overtime could change such estimated settlement period.

    There are also provisions recorded by Group companies in relation with court rulings and unfavorable tax inspections that are under appeal but have not been resolved yet. For these tax disputes the Group considers that it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources in the medium term (between 2 and 5 years).

    Provision for liabilities

    This provision includes the Group's best estimates of probable cash outflows in connection with litigation, arbitration and claims in progress in which the various group companies are defendants as a result of the activities they carry out. Management considers that these liabilities will likely be settled in the medium or long term (which has been estimated being comprised in a period between 2 to 5 years).

    Dismantling provision

    This provision is intended to cover future expenditures related to the dismantlement of the solar and environmental plants and those expenses deriving from the sealing and closing of waste safety deposits that are operated by several companies in the Industrial Production activity and it will be likely to be settled with an outflow of resources in the long term (over 5 years).

22.2.
Contingent liabilities

    As of December 31, 2012 Abengoa and its Group of companies are involved in certain claims and litigations both against and in their favor. Such matters arise during the Group's normal course of business and represent the technical and economic claims that the contractual parties typically invoke.

Consolidated financial statements

    We have briefly summarized below the most significant proceedings, which in the Management opinion are not expected to have a material adverse effect in the Consolidated Financial Statements, individually or as a whole, or for which the future outcome cannot be reliably estimated.

    In May 2000, Abengoa Puerto Rico S.E., a subsidiary of Abengoa, S.A, brought a lawsuit against the Electricity Power Authority (Autoridad de Energía Eléctrica, 'AEE') of Puerto Rico and terminated the agreement that both parties had entered into in relation to an EPC project for the construction of an electricity power station in Puerto Rico, in which the AEE was the Principal Contractor. The referred lawsuit contained different claims such as, inter alia, withholding payments, defaulted invoices, loss of future profits, damages and several other costs, which tentatively amounted to $40 million. In response to the lawsuit brought by Abengoa Puerto Rico, S.E., the AEE brought a counterclaim premised upon unlawful termination and consequential damages relating to the agreement with Abengoa Puerto Rico, S.E. and, at the same time, brought an additional lawsuit for the same amount against Abengoa and its insurer, American International Insurance Co. of Puerto Rico. The amount claimed by the AEE is approximately $450 million.

    On February 15, 2010, our subsidiary, Centro Tecnológico Palmas Altas, S.A. ('CTPA') filed a suit against Geco Alvicorp, S.L, claiming the non-existence of a termination clause in the purchase and sale agreement of certain plots in Huerta del Huracán, Spain entered into by the parties in 2007 and pursuant to which CTPA sold the plots for €46.7 million. Subsequently, Geco Alvicorp, S.L. claimed the existence of such a termination condition and has claimed the return of the purchase price plus interest. On February 16, 2011, the court ruled in CTPA's favor. Geco Alvicorp, S.L. appealed this decision on April 27, 2011; such appeal was denied on July 12, 2012. Geco has appealed this decision to the High Court of Justice (Tribunal Supremo).

    In March 2011, we initiated an arbitration procedure before the International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes in Washington, D.C. against the Mexican State for an alleged breach of the international treaty between Mexico and Spain for the reciprocal protection of investments. The arbitration procedure concerned the non-renewal of a license for a waste plant in Mexico. On April 18, 2013, an arbitration order was issued in our favor that ordered the defendant to pay us $38.2 million plus interest.

22.3.
Contingent assets

    As of December 31, 2012 Abengoa and its Group of companies have the following most significant contingent assets:

    In December 2011, two related arbitration proceedings before the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce with seat in New York, United States were concluded in which our subsidiary ASA Bioenergy Holding A.G. ('ASA') filed various claims for certain breaches of contract by Mr. Adriano Gianetti Dedini Ometto and Adriano Ometto Agrícola Ltda. (the 'Adriano Defendants') relating to a share purchase agreement, dated August 4, 2007 with respect to the shares of Adriano Ometto Participações Ltda. In each of the proceedings, the Adriano Defendants had filed various counterclaims. Both arbitration proceedings were decided in ASA's favor, in the approximate amounts of $20.7 million and $169.2 million respectively. Although the Adriano Defendants have appealed such arbitral awards, we believe the chances of success are low. According with IAS 37 on contingent assets and based on the date on which confirmation was received, the Company has not recorded any amount in its Consolidated Income Statement.

Application of rules and tax groups in 2012

    Abengoa, S.A. and 258, 283 and 280 consolidated subsidiaries in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively (see Appendices XII, XVII and XXII of these Consolidated Financial Statements) have filed its 2012 income taxes following the rules for tax consolidation in Spain under the 'Special Regime for Tax Consolidation' Number 2/97.

    Befesa Medioambiente, S.L.U and 12 other companies part of the Befesa Group, which was sold in 2013 (see Note 7) have filed its 2012 income taxes following the rules for tax consolidation in Vizcaya, with a group number 13/05/B. The applicable law for the payment of corporate income tax in the Historic Territory of Biscay is Provincial Law 3/1996 of June 26 (taking into account subsequent amendments). Management of the companies part of this tax group has calculated income tax expense for the year 2012 and for all the preceding years open to potential tax audits following tax regulations in force at the end of each years in this region.

    All the other Spanish and foreign companies included in the Consolidation group file income taxes according to the tax regulations in force in each country on an individual basis or under consolidation tax regulations.

    In order to calculate the taxable income of the consolidated tax Group and the consolidated entities individually, the accounting profit is adjusted for temporary and permanent differences, recording the corresponding deferred tax assets and liabilities. At each Consolidated Income Statement date, a current tax asset or liability is recorded, representing income taxes currently refundable or payable. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes, as determined under enacted tax laws and rates.

    Income tax payable is the result of applying the applicable tax rate in force to each tax-paying entity, in accordance with the tax laws in force in the territory and/or country in which the entity is registered. Additionally, tax deductions and credits are available to certain entities, primarily relating to inter-company trades and tax treaties between various countries to prevent double taxation.

    Most of the tax credits for net operating loss carryforwards correspond to Brazil (€130 million), the United States (€43 million), Spain (€117 million) and the Netherlands (€38 million). Tax loss carryforwards in Brazil have been generated in years with poor meteorological conditions which have negatively affected sugarcane production. During 2011 and 2012 investments have been made to improve the quality of biological assets, to increase milling capacity and cogeneration plant capacity, with the ultimate purpose of increasing assets profitability. Tax loss carryforwards in the United States correspond mainly to projects in an initial stage of development or operation and to application of tax incentives. Tax loss carryforwards in Spain correspond mainly to the application of tax incentives.

    Tax credits for deductions have been generated mainly in Spain. Among these tax credits the larger amount corresponds to deduction on export activities (DAEX), which is calculated as a percentage over investments effectively made for the acquisition of foreign companies or capital increases in foreign companies. This percentage, which was initially 25% was gradually reduced since 2007 to reach 3% in 2010, disappearing entirely in 2011. To benefit from this deduction, among other requirements, the acquisition or incorporation of companies should be directly related to the export of goods and services from Spain.

    During the year 2012, the Company has not recorded any income in relation to this deduction, as it had been recorded entirely as of December 31, 2011.

    In 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded total income amounting to €65 million and €73 million, respectively, part of which was classified as grants in 'Other operating income'. In relation to the accounting treatment of the DAEX deduction, IAS 12 and IAS 20 (which covers the accounting treatment of government grants) exclude from their scope the accounting treatment of investment tax credits. IAS 20 indicates that a grant may exist in certain tax packages with certain characteristics of 'investment tax credits' and recognizes that on occasions it is difficult to distinguish whether the underlying components of an economic transaction are government grants. In order to determine if the DAEX export tax is within the scope of IAS 12 or IAS 20, the Company analyzes each investment on a case-by-case basis. DAEX export tax deductions are considered government grants when the deduction is fundamental to the decision to make an investment in an asset and is recorded as 'Other operating income- grants' in these cases (€50 million and €73 million were recorded under this heading in 2011 and 2010, respectively). In all other cases the DAEX export tax deduction is considered to be part of the income tax (€15 million and €0 million were recorded under this heading in 2011 and 2010, respectively).

    In addition, efforts in research, development and innovation activities (R&D&i) that Abengoa has been carrying out during the last years have resulted in the generation of important tax deductions, some of which are recorded as deferred tax assets for an amount of €70 million as of December 31, 2012.

    'Other deductions', which have been generated mainly in Spain, correspond primarily to deductions for double taxation (€12 million), environmental deductions (€12 million), deduction for reinvestment of extraordinary benefits (€51 million) and deductions for donations to non-profit organizations (€19 million).

    In relation to tax loss carryforwards and deductions pending to be used recorded as deferred tax assets, the Company evaluates its recoverability projecting forecasted taxable income for the upcoming years and taking into account the Company tax planning strategy. Deferred tax liabilities reversals are also considered in these projections, as well as any limitation established by tax regulations in force in each tax jurisdiction.

    On the other hand, the Company has certain tax credits as of December 31, 2012 which have not been capitalized, as it determined that recoverability of such assets is not probable. These tax credits consist mainly of tax loss carryforwards related to our US subsidiaries amounting to €28,2 million (€21.6 million in 2011), with expiration dates between 2029 and 2031; and R&D&i and environmental tax credits in Spain amounting to €50,3 million (€57.9 million in 2011), with expiration dates between 2022 and 2030.

        Work performed by the entity and capitalized, and other corresponds to income from capitalized costs for an amount of €236.6 million, €394.6 million and €531.1 million for the years 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, including mainly the capitalization of costs associated with the construction of our own assets (except for concession assets for which IFRIC 12 is applied). The corresponding costs are recognized in the individual expense line item in the accompanying income statements. The recognition of an income for the sum of such costs through the line item 'Work performed by the entity and capitalized, and other' results in these costs having no impact in operating profit. The corresponding assets are capitalized and included in property, plant and equipment in the accompanying balance sheets. The variation year-over-year is caused by the fact that costs associated with the construction of thermosolar plants in Spain were included in this line item until the prospective application of IFRIC 12 starting September 1, 2011.

        Additionally, other income correspond mainly to the gain amounting to €85 million arising from the business combination of Rioglass Group, where we achieved control by increasing our ownership in stages well as an income of €26 million recorded by Abengoa Bioenergy U.S. Holding in the last quarter of 2012, corresponding to a collection from Chicago Title Insurance Company after a favorable jury verdict in a litigation process against that company. Finally, this heading includes income arising from the fair value adjustment of our biological assets in Brazil, to sales of property plant and equipment and to other minor income.

        As indicated in Note 24.2, Grants in 2012, 2011 and 2010 include income in relation to export activity deductions in cases where it is considered appropriate to apply IAS 20 to these investment tax credits (see Note 24).

        Income from various services in 2012 primarily includes profits generated by the sale of the second 50% of the shareholding of STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III amounting to €4.5 million and other income by minor services. In 2011 it primarily includes profits generated by the sale of the first 50% of the Brazilian transmission lines amounting to €45 million and in 2010 it mainly includes profits generated by the sale of ETIM and Expansion amounting to €69 million.

        'Leases and fees' mainly includes leases of buildings, offices, machinery and construction equipment required in the ordinary course of operating activities of companies.

        Under 'Other external services' are mainly recorded trips and per diem expenses.

Share plans

    On February 2, 2006, Abengoa granted a Share Acquisition Plan, or Plan, which was approved by the Board of Directors of Abengoa on January 23, 2006. The Plan is on the same terms to all participants, members of the senior management of Abengoa and its subsidiaries. Under the Plan, participants were entitled to purchase up to 3,200,000 shares of Abengoa. Subsequently, the number of shares

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    has been adjusted due to the increase in class B share capital charged to our freely available reserves, approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting held on September 30, 2012 (see Note 18).

    The material terms of the Plan are as follows:

    1.
    Participants: 122 members of the senior management of the Abengoa Group (business group managers, business unit managers, technical and research and development officers and corporate services officers) from all its subsidiaries and business areas are eligible to participate in the Plan if they desire to do so. The Plan is not open to any member of Abengoa's Board of Directors. At the end of 2012, besides the participants excluded from the Plan, there were 98 participants.

    2.
    Shares Available for Purchase: Up to 3,200,000 Abengoa shares (the 'shares'). The shares purchased by Plan participants were already issued and in circulation and were purchased on the open market, at the then current market price, over a period that extended to December 31, 2006, in accordance with the Stock Exchange Act (Spain). A total of 3,166,000 were purchased under the Plan. As such, these shares are not dilutive instruments for earnings per share calculation purposes. At year ended 2012, the number of shares covered by the plan amounted to 12,251,425 shares, adjusted due to capital increase by distribution of class B shares mentioned above.

    3.
    Financing: As a feature of the Plan, each participant utilized the proceeds of an individual bank loan from Banco Sabadell, S.A. or Caja Madrid (collectively the 'Bank') to finance the purchase of shares of Abengoa under the Plan. The same standard loan terms apply to all participants. The interest rate on the loans is a variable rate equal to EURIBOR plus 0.75%. These are bullet and not amortizing loans. The loans must be repaid by the participants by August 7, 2011. Each loan is secured by a pledge of 100% of the participant's shares and is guaranteed by the Company to the extent set forth under paragraph 8 below. Except for the pledge of the shares, the loan is not considered a non-recourse financing to the participant. The maximum amount of indebtedness related to all such loans is €87 million (including expenses, commissions and interests). As of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the amounts drawn by total participants under these loans amounted to €61 million, €59 million and €64 million, respectively.

    4.
    Share Purchase: The acquisition cost for all participants has been the average acquisition price, plus associated commissions and other costs, for all of the shares purchased under the Plan for all participants.

    5.
    Term and Vesting Period: The duration and vesting period of the Plan is five complete financial years (2006-2010) plus six months (until June 30, 2011) (the requisite service period). The Plan requires the annual accomplishment by the participant of annual management objectives, including specific financial targets and qualitative objectives, set by the management of the Abengoa Group company by which the participant is employed, as well as their continuation as a Group employee through June 30, 2011. If the annual objectives are not met by the participant, the Bank from which the participant borrowed the funds to purchase his/her shares may sell a percentage of the shares purchased for such participant as follows: 2006-30%, 2007-30%, 2008-15%, 2009-15%, 2010-10%.

    6.
    As of December 31, 2010, the participants had consolidated the annual objectives required by the Plan.

    7.
    Restrictions on Sales: A participant may not transfer, sell, borrow against or otherwise dispose of the shares purchased before July 1, 2011.

    8.
    Repurchase Option: Under the Plan, Abengoa has a repurchase option under which Abengoa can require a participant to sell the shares back to the Company on the occurrence of certain events, such as death, disability or retirement of the participant or termination of the employment of the participant with the Abengoa Group Company.

    9.
    Shortfall on Sale of Shares: At the end of the five years and six months term of the Plan, if the amount realized on a sale of the shares does not entirely cover the amount owed under the loan and costs and taxes on capital gains, Abengoa will compensate the participant with the necessary amount to repay the loan plus accrued and unpaid interest and pay such taxes.

    10.
    In 2011 agreements were closed with participating financial entities and the directors of said Plan for its extension for an additional period of two years, until December 31, 2012.

    Compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period (the vesting period), and is determined by reference to the fair value of a hypothetical put option granted by the company to the participant, excluding the effect of vesting conditions that are not market conditions. For these purposes, the calculation takes into account the number of shares that are expected to become exercisable (or vested), which is updated at each year end, recognizing the impact of the revision of the original estimates, if applicable, in the Consolidated Income Statement.

    The fair value of the hypothetical options granted during the year 2012, calculated using the Black-Scholes model was €36,245 thousand (€26,772 thousand in 2011 and €18,858 thousand in 2010), recording a expense during the year 2012 of €9,473 thousand (expense of €7,914 thousand in 2011 and expense of €2,954 thousand in 2010). The key data required for the valuation model were share price, the estimated return per dividend, an expected option life of 5 years, an annual interest rate and share market volatility that are included in the table below:

    On July 24, 2006 and December 11, 2006, the Board of Directors approved an Extraordinary Variable Compensation Plan for Managers (Plan II) at the proposal of the Remuneration Committee. This plan initially included 190 beneficiaries and had a total cost of €51,630 thousand over a five-year period from 2007 to 2011, inclusive. It required that objectives set forth in the Strategic Plan be attained at an individual level as well as the individual's continued ongoing service throughout the period in question.

    In addition to the aforementioned, given that the acquisition of the company B.U.S. Group AB was completed only shortly after implementation of the Plan, on October 22, 2007 the Board of Directors approved the inclusion of the management team of such company, formed by 10 people, in the Plan under the same conditions as those established for the rest of the beneficiaries, for a total amount of €2,520 thousand. At the close of 2012 financial year, there were 155 participants, and the total cost of the plan was €35,237 thousand.

    On October 24, 2011, the Board of Directors approved the extension of the Plan II for a period of one additional year.

    On January 24, 2011, the Board of Directors approved an Extraordinary Variable Compensation Plan for Managers (Plan III), proposed by the Remuneration Committee. The plan, which includes 104 beneficiaries (the participants), has a duration of five years (from 2011 to 2015) and is based on achieving the objectives defined in the Strategic Plan, at an individual level. The plan also requires the individual's continued ongoing service for the entire period considered. The total amount available under the plan for the 104 participants is €56,500 thousand. The company recognizes the corresponding personnel expense in the Consolidated Income Statements for the amounts accrued based on the percentage of consolidation of the objectives. At the end of 2012, there were 103 participants and the total amount of the plan has reached €55,270 thousand.

    The cost recognized through the variable remuneration plans in 2012 was €11,054 thousand (€23,138 thousand in 2011 and €12,956 thousand in 2010), the accumulated cost being €71,933 thousand (€60,879 thousand in 2011 and €37,741 thousand in 2010). The cost of Plan III corresponding to senior Management of the Company recognized in 2012 amounts to €2,380 thousand.

    For the year ended December 31, 2012 finance income has decreased with respect to the same period of the previous year mainly due to lower interest income from loans and credits in Brazil due to the sale of transmission lines in two parts. In the year ended December 31, 2011 the increase in finance income was primarily due to an increase in the average outstanding balance of short term financial investments in Brazil, where we benefit from higher interest rates.

Consolidated financial statements

    Interest expenses from loans and credits have remained stable: amounts outstanding from non-recourse financing have been higher during the year 2012 but capitalized interest have also been higher, as non-recourse financing increased primarily to finance projects under construction and interest expenses is capitalized during the construction period. The increase in interest from other debts, mainly due to a larger volume in our non-recourse factoring arrangements, has been practically offset by a decrease in losses from our interest rate derivatives.

    In 2011, Finance expenses increased primarily due to interest expense payable on a higher average amount of indebtedness during the year ended December 31, 2011 and interest expense accrued in debt from project companies entering into operation during 2011. The main non-recourse projects that entered into operation during the year 2011 were Helioenergy 1 solar-thermal plant in Spain (with €78 million debt as of December 31, 2011), Solar Power Plant One ('SPP1') in Algeria (with €244 million debt as of December 31, 2011), the desalination plant in Honaine (Algeria) (with €155 million debt as of December 31, 2011) and the ATN power transmission lines in Peru (with €54 million debt as of December 31, 2011). All these projects were in construction as of December 31, 2010, so their interest expenses during 2010 was capitalized. On the other hand, losses from interest-rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, for an amount of €132.0 million are due to transfers from equity to financial expense when the hedged item is impacting the consolidated income statement and to a decrease in time value of the interest rate options.

    Finance expenses increased for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to interest expense payable on a higher average amount of indebtedness during the year ended December 31, 2010, interest expense associated with projects entering into operation (interest expense is capitalized during the construction period) and losses from interest rate derivatives designated as cash-flow hedges, for an amount of €69 million.

    The net financial expenses for non-recourse financing project companies is €-115,254 thousand (€-124,225 thousand in 2011 and €-80,493 thousand in 2010).

Total

    (35,798 )   (28,154 )   (18,316 )
                 

    The most significant amounts in net exchange differences during 2012 correspond to a loss from exchange rate derivatives recognized as a result of the interruption of the hedging relationship, when the transaction hedge is no longer expected to occur, to the negative impact of the accumulated translation differences transferred to the Consolidated Income Statement and the exchange rate derivatives related to brazilian transmission line concessions sold (see Note 6.2) and to different

    hedges in several subsidiaries that have not been offset perfectly with the differences generated by the hedged item.

    The most significant amounts in net exchange differences during 2011 correspond to the negative impact of foreign exchange transactions, for an amount of €32.3 million, due to the unfavorable evolution of the Brazilian real-U.S. Dollar exchange rate related to the U.S. Dollar-denominated debt financings of out Brazilian subsidiaries.

    The most significant amounts in net exchange differences during 2010 correspond to the effect of the variation of the U.S. Dollar and Brazilian real exchange rates.

    Net exchange rate differences in 2012 for entities with non-recourse financing amounts to €-27,327 thousand (€6,961 thousand in 2011 and €430 thousand in 2010).

    In the year ended December 31, 2012 the heading 'Other finance income' mainly includes the change in fair value of embedded derivatives of the convertible bonds, net of change in fair value of the call options over Abengoa's own share, which hedge the embedded derivatives partially, amounting to a net gain of €9,214 thousand (see Note 20.3). In 2011 this impact was a loss classified in 'Other finance expenses'. The remaining balance of 'Other finance income' corresponds mainly to interests from deposits and cash and cash equivalents related to our outsourcing of trade payables (see Note 25.3), which have remained stable period over period.

Consolidated financial statements

    In the year ended December 31, 2012 in the heading 'Other finance expenses', expenses related to outsourcing of payables have increased with respect to a larger volume of payables outsourced during the period the prior year. Commodity derivatives losses correspond to the interruption of the hedging relationship, when the transaction hedged is no longer expected to occur. Additionally, 'Other finance losses' include finance expenses mainly related to financial guarantees and letters of credit, to wire transfers and other bank fees, losses on available for sale financial assets and other minor finance expenses.

    In the year 2011, total Other finance income decreased mainly due to the changes in fair value of derivatives embedded in convertible notes of Abengoa with regards to previous periods and to changes in the fair value of options over the shares of Abengoa (basically due to the decrease in the price of the shares of Abengoa, which is a principal factor in the valuation of derivatives embedded in the options) for a net sum of €30 million in losses, compared to a net gain in the previous year. In addition, Other finance expense increased due to a larger expense related to the outsourcing of payables caused by a larger volume of payables outsourced during the year.

    The most significant amounts at the end of 2010 primarily correspond to Other finance income for the change in the fair value of the embedded derivative of convertible debt and Other finance expenses mainly related to commission expenses and finance expenses on confirming transactions.

    The net of 'Other incomes and financial expenses' for Non-recourse financing project companies is €-33,607 thousand (€-59,455 thousand in 2011 and €-6,407 thousand in 2010).

    Differences between theoretical tax and actual tax expense arise mainly from:

    Companies based in jurisdictions with statutory tax rates different from Spanish statutory tax rate.

    Application in Spain of tax incentive for the transfer of use of intangible assets under Article 23 of the Revised Text of the Spanish Income Tax Act and application also in Spain of the tax incentive which exempts any profits generated abroad for international projects involving the export of goods and services from Spain. Generation of tax deductions, mainly in Spain, among which we can outline R&D&I deductions, double taxation deductions, deductions on training expenses and deductions on donation expenses. In addition, the Company has recorded deferred tax assets for tax loss carryforwards generated in past years in other tax jurisdictions.

    In 2012, the Company has recorded no taxable gains corresponding to the gain obtained in the business combination achieved in stages over Rioglass Group (see Note 6.3).

    The heading 'Other non-taxable income/(expense)' includes, among others, income tax expenses corresponding to the previous period and permanent differences arising in other jurisdictions as a result of revaluation of assets and liabilities.


Note 32. — Earnings per share

        As explained in Note 18, on September 30, 2012, the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting approved an increase in class B share capital, charged to our freely available reserves, which will be distributed for no consideration to all existing shareholders on the basis of four (4) class B shares for each class A share or

F-140


Table of Contents

Consolidated financial statements

class B share which they hold. Therefore, no dilution or further concentration with respect to our share capital has occurred.

        According to IAS 33, when ordinary shares are issued to existing shareholders for no additional consideration, the transaction is equivalent to a share split. In this case, the number of ordinary shares outstanding before the event is adjusted for the proportionate change in the number of ordinary shares outstanding as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

32.1.
Basic earnings per share

    Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

    The average number of ordinary shares used for the earnings per share calculation has been adjusted to reflect the capital increase described in Note 18, consisting in distributing to all existing shareholders four (4) class B shares for each class A share or class B share which they hold, for no consideration.

    On the other hand, the weighted average number of shares for the year ended on December 31, 2011 is different from the number of shares for the year ended on December 31, 2012 because the latter incorporates during the entire period the capital increase subscribed by FRC in November 2011, as described in Note 18.

Diluted earnings per share

    To calculate the diluted earnings per share, the average weighted number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding is adjusted to reflect the conversion of all the potential diluting ordinary shares.

    The potential diluting ordinary shares held by the group correspond to the warrants on Type B shares issued in November 2011. The assumption is that all warrants will be exercised and a calculation is made to determine the number of shares that may have been acquired at fair value based on the monetary value of the subscription rights of the warrants still to be exercised. The difference between the number of shares issued assuming the exercise of the warrants, and the number of shares calculated based on the above, is included in the calculation of the income per diluted share.

    In addition, the average number of ordinary shares used for the earnings per share calculation has been adjusted to reflect the capital increase described in Note 18, consisting in distributing to all

33.7.
Environmental information

    The principles of the environmental policies of Abengoa are based on compliance with the current legal regulations applicable, preventing or minimizing damaging or negative environmental consequences, reducing the consumption of energy and natural resources, and achieving ongoing improvement in environmental conduct.

    In response to this commitment to the sustainable use of energy and natural resources, Abengoa, in its Management Rules and Guidelines for the entire Group, explicitly establishes the obligation to implement and certify environmental management systems in accordance with the ISO 14001 International Standard.

    Consequently, by year-end 2012, the percentage of Companies with Environment Management Systems certified according to the ISO 14001 Standard per sales volume is 92.84% (80.52% in 2011).

    The table below lists the percentage of distribution of the Companies with Certified Environmental Management Systems, broken down by business unit:

Industrial Production

    87.38%  
 

Concession-type Infraestructure

    97.30%  
33.8.
Restricted net assets

    Abengoa considers that its traditional engineering activity represents no more than a valuable tool through which it can construct a more sustainable world, and it applies this philosophy in all its activities such that from concession-type infrastructures, industrial production and engineering and construction, Abengoa applies innovative technology solutions for sustainable development.

    Certain of our consolidated subsidiaries are restricted from remitting certain funds to us in the form of dividends or loans by a variety of regulations, contractual or statutory requirements. These restrictions are related to debt covenants that require the maintenance of debt coverage ratios and net assets ratios which restrict the amount of cash that can be paid to the parent. Also for certain project finance entities that are in construction, no dividends may be distributed until activity commences or, after construction completion, be subject to cash waterfall provision. At December 31, 2012, the accumulated amount of the restrictions for the whole restricted term of these affiliates was €1,404 million. Even though the Company currently does not require any such dividends, loans or advances for working capital and other funding purposes, the Company may in the future require additional cash resources from the subsidiaries due to changes in business conditions, to fund future acquisitions and development, or merely to declare and pay dividends to make distributions to shareholders. Despite these restrictions, subsidiaries in operations have been distributing dividends up to the amount allowed by covenant ratios.

    The Company performed a test on the restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X Rule 4-08 (e) (3) 'General Notes to Financial Statements' and rule 5-04 (c) 'what schedules are to be filed' and concluded the restricted net assets exceed 25% of the consolidated net assets of the Company as of December 31, 2012. Therefore the

    On February 2, 2013, Royal Decree 2/2013 of February 1 on urgent measures related to the electric system and financial sector has been published and ratified by Spanish General Courts on February 14. Among other measures, this Royal Decree establishes an amendment starting in 2013 on the mechanism to update tariffs and premiums received by electricity suppliers in application of its sector regulation and several amendments to Royal Decree 661/2007, of May 25, that regulates electricity production activity under the special regime and under the regime derived from the latter. These measures have meant a significant modification in the regulatory framework applicable to the electricity generation with thermo-solar technology in Spain.

    Finally, on 13 July 2013 Royal Decree-Act 9/2013 of 12 July 2013 (hereinafter, 'Royal Decree Act 9/2013 ') was published. This adopts urgent measures to ensure the financial stability of the system in

F-148


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated financial statements

    order to mitigate the tariff deficit. In general, these measures address the following issues: (i) they enable the Government to approve a new legal and economic regime for existing installations for the production of electricity from renewable energy sources; (ii) they approve urgent measures in relation to the system governing the remuneration of distribution and transport activities; (iii) they envisage a set of measures in relation to the Electricity System Deficit Securitisation Fund; and (iv) they establish measures in relation to payments based on capacity, the assumption of the cost of the subsidised rate and the review of access tolls, among other things.

    Although the new legal and economic regime is still pending implementation, Royal Decree-Act 9/2013 establishes the pillars on which the future reform will be based. To this end, Article 30.4 of Act 54/1997 of 27 November 1997 on the Electricity Sector (Ley del Sector Eléctrico) is modified, and recognises the producer's right to earn some income from its participation in the market, with an additional remuneration which, if necessary, can cover the standard investment costs not recovered in the market by an efficient and well managed company. For the calculation of the specific remuneration it shall consider, for a typical installation, the proceeds from the sale of energy generated valued at the production market price, the average operating costs necessary for carrying out the activity, and the value of the initial investment in the typical installation, all this with the aim of acknowledging a reasonable return for producers that, before tax, will be around the average yield in the secondary market for 10-year Government Bonds plus 300 basis points, and that in any case may be reviewed every 6 years.

    In line with the aim of the reform, Royal Decree-Act 9/2013 repeals Article 4 of Royal Decree-Act 6/2009 of 30 April 2009 approving the subsidised rate, Royal Decree 661/2007 of 25 May 2007 which regulates the electricity production activity under the special regime, and Royal Decree 1578/2008 of 26 September 2008 on the remuneration for the production of electricity using solar photovoltaic technology for installations postdating the deadline for maintaining the remuneration of Royal Decree 661/2007 of 25 May 2007 for such technology. However, in order to maintain both the flow of remuneration to the installations and the rest of the procedures, rights and obligations, it is stipulated that the provisions of the above mentioned rules will be applied on a transitional basis until the new legislation has been approved. As a result of the foregoing, until further legislation implementing the reform has been approved, all payment collection rights and settlements paid to the producers from 13 July 2013 shall be on account of the definitive regularisation and pending such regularisation. In addition, any changes arising from the pending legislative development could have an impact on the business, financial terms or operating results in the activities of electricity generation under the special regime. Abengoa will finish assessing the impact of this reform once the Government has published all the necessary details.

    Given that the afore-mentioned measures have been approved and made public after the date of these Consolidated Financial Statements, they correspond to a circumstance occurred in the period 2013 and do not correspond to an evidence or confirmation of conditions that existed prior to the closing of the reporting period 2012. In consequence, under IAS 10 on 'Events after the reporting period', its potential impacts should be considered after the closing of the reporting period 2012. In accordance with the analysis performed by the Company on the potential impacts that these measures could have, considering all the evidence available at the date of issuance of these Consolidated Financial Statements, Management has concluded that the analysis carried out do not indicate an impairment in the carrying amount of assets related to thermosolar electricity generation activity in Spain. As a result, the Company does not expect to have impairment losses nor any default in the financial obligations related to these projects as a consequence of the measures established in Royal Decree 9/2013.

    On June 2013 we commenced a private-law action against the Spanish government in the civil court of first instance (juzgado de primera instancia) in Seville for breach of contract based on the administrative ruling issued in respect of our Helios I thermo-solar plant. In that action we are seeking performance by the Spanish government in accordance with the terms of that administrative ruling or, in the alternative, money damages in an amount equivalent to the difference between the profit we would have obtained under the administrating ruling and the profit that we will obtain under the Spanish Government's special-regime tariff. The civil court has dismissed our complaint on the procedural ground that we must first exhaust our administrative remedies before the Ministry of Industry. We believe the dismissal was improper under applicable case-law and have appealed the lower court's decision to the appellate court (audiencia provincial) in Seville. Also in June 2013, we submitted a demand for arbitration on behalf of our subsidiary CSP Equity Investment S.à. r.l. against the Spanish government as a signatory to the Energy Charter Treaty. CSP Equity Investment holds our equity interests in the Helioenergy 1 and 2, Solaben 2 and 3, and Solacor 1 and 2 thermo-solar plants. Our demand for arbitration alleges that the Spanish government's regulatory reforms of the electricity sector have breached CSP Equity Investment's legitimate expectations under the administrative rulings issued in respect of those facilities and constitute expropriation. Further, we are seeking compensation through money damages, in an amount yet to be determined. The arbitral proceeding will be conducted in The Hague in accordance with the rules of the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce before a panel of three arbitrators. Two of the three arbitrators have been appointed; the chair of the arbitral tribunal is in the process of being appointed.

Notes to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements

Note 1. — General information

        Abengoa, S.A. is the parent company of the Abengoa Group (referred to hereinafter as 'Abengoa', 'the Group' or 'the Company'), which at the end of the six month periods ended June 30, 2013, was made up of 584 companies: the parent company itself, 532 subsidiaries, 17 associates and 34 joint ventures.

        Abengoa, S.A. was incorporated in Seville, Spain on January 4, 1941 as a Limited Liability Company and was subsequently transformed into a Limited Liability Corporation ('S.A' in Spain) on March 20, 1952. Its registered office is Campus Palmas Altas, C/ Energía Solar n? 1, 41014 Seville.

        Abengoa's shares are represented by class A and B shares are listed on the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchange and on the Spanish Stock Exchange Electronic Trading System (Electronic Market). Class A shares have been listed since November 29, 1996 and class B shares since October 25, 2012. The Company presents mandatory financial information on a quarterly and semiannually basis.

        Abengoa is an international company that applies innovative technology solutions for sustainability development in the energy and environment sectors, generating for sustainability in the energy and environment sectors, generating electricity from renewable resources, converting biomass into biofuels and producing drinking water from sea water. The Company supplies engineering projects under the 'turnkey' contract modality and operates assets that generate renewable energy, produce biofuel, manage water resources, desalinate sea water and treat sewage.

        The Group has identified 3 main business activities (Engineering and Construction, Concession-type Infrastructures and Industrial Production).

        Abengoa's activities are focused on the energy and environmental sectors, and integrate operations throughout the value chain including R+D+i, project development, engineering and construction and operating and maintenance for its own the assets and third parties.

        Abengoa's activity and the internal and external management information are organized under the following three activities:

    Engineering and construction: includes our traditional engineering activities in the energy and water sectors, with more than 70 years of experience in the market and development of thermosolar technology. Abengoa is specialized in carrying out complex turn-key projects for thermosolar plants, solar-gas hybrid plants, conventional generation plants, biofuels plants and water infrastructures, as well as large-scale desalination plants and transmission lines, among others.

    Concession-type infrastructures: groups together the company's proprietary concession assets that generate revenues governed by long term sales agreements, such as take-or-pay contracts, tariff contracts or power purchase agreements. This activity includes the operation of electric (solar, cogeneration or wind) energy generation plants and transmission lines. These assets generate low demand risk and we focus on operating them as efficiently as possible.

    Industrial production: covers Abengoa's businesses with a commodity component, such as biofuels (industrial waste recycling was part of this activity until the sale of shareholding in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U., see Note 7.1). The company holds an important leadership position in these activities in the geographical markets in which it operates.

        The Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the period ended on June 30, 2013 were approved by the Chief Executive Officer on August 28, 2013.

Note 2. — Basis of preparation

        The Group's consolidated financial statements corresponding to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 were prepared by the Directors of the Company in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (herein IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) applying the principles of consolidation, accounting policies and valuation criteria described in Note 2 of the notes to the aforementioned consolidated financial statements, and they present the consolidated equity and the consolidated financial situation of the Group as of December 31, 2012 and the consolidated results of its operations, the changes in the consolidated net equity and its consolidated cash flows corresponding to the financial year ending on that date.

        The Group's consolidated financial statements corresponding to the 2012 financial year were approved on February 21, 2013 and as indicated in Note 2 to such Consolidated Financial Statements, have been recasted and approved on August 28, 2013.

        These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements are presented in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

        These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements have been prepared based on the accounting records of Abengoa and the subsidiary companies which are part of the Group, and include the adjustments and re-classifications necessary to achieve uniformity between the accounting and presentation criteria followed by all the companies of the Group (in all cases, in accordance with local regulations) and those applied by Abengoa, S.A. for the purpose of preparing consolidated financial statements.

        In accordance with IAS 34, interim financial information is prepared solely in order to update the most recent annual consolidated financial statements prepared by the Group, placing emphasis on new activities, occurrences and circumstances that have taken place during the six month period ended June 30, 2013 and not duplicating the information previously published in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012. Therefore, the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements do not include all the information that would be required in complete consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB.

        In view of the above, for an adequate understanding of the information, these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements must be read together with Abengoa's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.

        Given the activities in which the companies of the Group engage, their transactions are not of a cyclical or seasonal nature. For this reason, specific breakdowns are not included in these explanatory notes to the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements corresponding to the twelve-month period ending on June 30, 2013.

        In determining the information to be disclosed in the notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, the Group, in accordance with IAS 34, has taken into account its materiality in relation to the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements.

        The amounts included within the documents comprising the Consolidated Financial Statements (Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Income Statement, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and notes herein) are, unless otherwise stated, all expressed in thousands of Euros (€).

        Unless otherwise stated, any presented percentage of interest in subsidiaries, joint ventures (including temporary joint ventures) and associates includes both direct and indirect ownership.

2.1.
Applying new accounting standards

a)
Standards, interpretations and amendments that came into effect on January 1, 2013 under the IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, applied by the Group prospectively in these Condensed Financial Statements:

IFRS 13 'Fair value measurement'. IFRS 13 defines fair value, sets out in a single IFRS a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements.

        According to IFRS 13, this standard will be applied prospectively from the beginning of the annual period in which it is initially applied. The disclosure requirements of this IFRS do not need to be applied to compare information provided for periods prior to the initial application of this IFRS.

        The main impact relates to the measurement of the financial derivatives, call options on Abengoa own shares that were signed to hedge the convertible notes as well as the embedded derivative in the convertible notes, (see Note 11).

      IAS 1 (amendment) 'Financial statements presentation'. The main change resulting from this amendment is a requirement to group items presented in 'other comprehensive income' (OCI) on the basis of whether they will be subsequently reclassified to profit or loss or not (reclassification adjustments).

    b)
    Standards, interpretations and amendments that came into effect on January 1, 2013 under the IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, applied by the Group retrospectively in these Condensed Financial Statements:

    IFRS 10, 'Consolidated Financial Statements'. IFRS 10 supersedes current consolidation requirements of IAS 27 and establishes principles for the presentation and preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. IFRS 10 modifies the current definition of control. The new definition of control sets out the following three elements: power over the investee; exposure, or rights, to variable returns from involvement with the investee; and the ability to use power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor's returns.

    IFRS 11 'Joint arrangements'. IFRS 11, supersedes the actual IAS 31 about joint ventures and under this standard investments in joint arrangements are classified either as joint operations or joint ventures, depending on the contractual rights and obligations each investor has rather than just the legal structure of the joint arrangement. Joint operations arise where a joint operator has rights to the assets and obligations relating to the arrangement and hence accounts for its interest in assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Joint ventures arise where the joint operator has rights to the net assets of the arrangement and accounts for its interest under the equity method. Proportional consolidation of joint ventures is no longer allowed.

    IFRS 12 'Disclosures of interests in other entities'. IFRS 12 defines the required disclosures of interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures and non-controlling interests.

    IAS 27 (amendment) 'Separated financial statements'. After IFRS 10 has been published, IAS 27 covers only separate financial statements.

F-284

Consolidated condensed interim financial statements

      IAS 28 (amendment) 'Associates and joint ventures'. IAS 28 has been amended to include the requirements for joint ventures to be accounted for under the equity method following the issuance of IFRS 11.

      IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 (amendments) 'Transition guidance'.

    The main impacts of the application of the new standards IFRS 10 and 11, as well as the amendments to IAS 27 and 28, in relation to what was systematically applied previously, relate to:

    (i)
    The de-consolidation of companies that do not fulfill the conditions of effective control of the interest in terms during the construction phase of decision making for their integration in the consolidated financial statements according to the equity method.

    (ii)
    The elimination of the proportional consolidation of the joint ventures, with the equity method being obligatory for recording its interest in the company.

    According to the terms and requirements established in IAS 8 'Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors', the above standards and amendments have been retrospectively applied, recasting the comparison information presented for the year 2012, to which these standards and amendments had not been applied, in order to make it comparable with the information at June 30, 2013. The Company has also recasted the information presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December, 31, 2012, to make it comparable with the information as of June 2013. Consolidated Financial Statements as of December, 31, 2011 and 2010 have not been recasted according to the transition guidance of this IFRS.

    Based on the foregoing the effect of the de-consolidation of the affected companies and their integration according to the equity method on the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2012 is shown below:

2.2.
IFRIC 12 — Service concession arrangements

    Service concession agreements are recorded in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 12. IFRIC 12 is applicable to public-to-private service concession arrangements where the grantor of the concession governs what services the operator must provide using the infrastructure, to whom and at what price and also controls any significant residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the term of the arrangement. When the operator of the infrastructure is also responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction of such asset, IFRIC 12 requires the separate accounting for the revenue and margins associated with the construction activities, which is not eliminated in consolidation even between companies within the same consolidated group, and for the subsequent operation and maintenance of the infrastructure. In such cases, the investment in the infrastructure used in the concession arrangement cannot be classified as property, plant and equipment of the operator, but rather must be classified as a financial asset or an intangible asset, depending on the nature of the payment rights established under the contract. The infrastructures accounted for by us as service concessions under IFRIC 12 are mainly related to the activities concerning power transmission lines, desalination plants and thermo-solar electricity generation plants outside of Spain and, with effect from January 1, 2011 (as explained below), in Spain.

    The analysis on whether IFRIC 12 applies to certain contracts and activities involves various complex factors and it is significantly affected by legal interpretation of certain contractual agreements or other terms and conditions with public sector entities. The application of IFRIC 12 requires extensive judgment in relation with, among other factors, (i) the identification of certain infrastructures and contractual agreements in the scope of IFRIC 12, (ii) the understanding of the nature of the payments

    in order to determine the classification of the infrastructure as a financial asset or as an intangible asset and (iii) the timing and recognition of the revenue from construction and concessionary activity.

    Thermo-solar electricity generation plants have been affected by numerous laws and regulation which have made difficult and very judgmental their consideration as concessionary assets. The following are the main laws, regulations or agreements with the government which have been considered as the most relevant to the Company's analysis of the application of IFRIC 12 to its thermo-solar assets in Spain:

      the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007; which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers;

      Royal Decree-Law 6/2009 of April 30 (RDL 6/2009); which adopts certain measures in the energy sector, approves a subsidized rate, and creates a "Pre-Allocation Registry";

      Individual rulings issued to us in January and March 2011, from the Spanish Ministry of Industry for each of our thermo-solar installations, confirming earliest commissioning dates, economic terms of the feed-in tariff/premium economic schemes and other issues related to the legal and economic regime of the plants; and

      Royal Decree 9-2013 of July 12, whereby the government adopted urgent measures to ensure financial stability in the electrical system (see Note 33.9 "Subsequent events").

    As a result of IFRIC 12 on Service Concession Arrangements coming into effect on January 1, 2008 and in accordance with IAS 8 as established in paragraph 29 of the aforementioned IFRIC 12, Abengoa began to apply this interpretation retrospectively with no significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements as of that date, since it had already been applying a similar accounting policy to the interpretation concurrently and in anticipation of the changes for its concession-type assets, mainly related to the international concession business for electricity transmission and desalination, with the exception of its thermo-solar assets in Spain. The Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007, which regulates the activity of the production of electricity under the special regime for renewable energy producers in Spain, is a statutory legal regime that created a legal relationship between the Spanish government and the developers of the plants. This legal relationship is of a public/administrative law nature, meaning that it is a legal relationship that is not governed by the Spanish Civil Code or Spanish Commercial Code in any respect (which governs relationships among private parties). This legal relationship is not a bilateral relationship, meaning that it could be changed unilaterally by the Spanish government by way of introducing changes in the laws and regulations governing the statutory legal regime. For that reason, the Company concluded that these assets did not meet the characteristics of concessionary assets as defined under the Interpretation at the transition date.

    The introduction of RDL 6/2009, created a very high level of uncertainty as to whether our thermo-solar plants in Spain would be entitled to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system, as well as to the continued availability of benefits under the Special Regime remuneration system for the duration of the useful life of our Spanish thermo-solar plants. Registration in the new system of the Pre-Allocation Registry under RDL 6/2009 did not guarantee that all of the thermo-solar plants accepted into the Pre-Allocation Registry would be immediately granted the right to participate in the Special Regime remuneration system. Due to the legal uncertainty created during this period, in the second half of 2010 Abengoa's Board and senior management determined to pursue a strategy to maximize legal certainty for purposes of finally and definitively establishing a legal and binding arrangement for the generation and sale of electricity on terms designed to ensure a reasonable level of return on its investment in Spanish thermo-solar plants and reducing the uncertainty introduced by

F-287

    the economic and political circumstances and the various regulatory changes that were being discussed. Abengoa implemented this strategy by applying for administrative rulings from the Ministry of Industry's General Directorate for Energy Policy and Mining. The Company's aim was to ensure that it had entered into a bilateral contractual relationship with the Spanish government on mutually binding terms and conditions that could not be amended unilaterally and that, in the case of default or breach by the Spanish government, would give the Company the recourse to bring claims based on the damages caused by such default or breach. The rulings do not guarantee that the Company will be successful in any claim brought by it against the Spanish government. However, if Abengoa had not obtained the rulings and only relied on the regulatory framework established by the Electricity Sector Act and Royal Decree 661/2007 to participate in the Special Regime, a unilateral change by the Spanish government to that framework affecting all producers equally would have left the Company without legal recourse. These rulings therefore substantially reduced the uncertainty that contributed to the Company's original conclusion that its Spanish thermo-solar plants were not within the scope of IFRIC 12.

    For the foregoing reasons, the Company did not consider the entry into the Pre-Allocation Registry to constitute the beginning of a service concession arrangement in accordance with the guidance in IFRIC 12 and only considered a service concession arrangement with the Spanish government within the scope of IFRIC 12 to come into existence upon the receipt of the administrative rulings in 2011, as it was through those rulings that the Spanish government confirmed, on an individual basis for each thermo-solar plant, the economic terms of the feed-in tariff and the commissioning dates for each asset, creating a bilateral contractual relationship and an obligation on the Company's part to supply the services at the established terms. In this regard, in June 2013 the Company commenced a private-law action against the Spanish government for breach of contract based on the administrative ruling issued in respect of one of its thermo-solar plants. In that action the Company is seeking performance by the Spanish government in accordance with the terms of that administrative ruling or, in the alternative, money damages in an amount equivalent to the difference between the profit it would have obtained under the administrating ruling and the profit that the Company will obtain under the Spanish government's special-regime tariff. In addition, in June 2013 the Company also submitted a demand for arbitration against the Spanish government alleging that the Spanish government's regulatory reforms of the electricity sector have breached the Company's legitimate expectations under the administrative rulings issued in respect of its thermo-solar facilities and constitute expropriation. Further, the Company is seeking compensation through money damages, in an amount yet to be determined (see Note 33.9 "Subsequent Events").

    Furthermore, during the first eight months of 2011, in view of the complex regulatory and accounting issues raised by the application of IFRIC 12 to those assets, and as a result of a review conducted by the Company's home country regulator, the CNMV, the Company decided to gather the opinions of legal and accounting experts on this topic to support its analysis and conclusions. After completing that analysis with the CNMV in August 2011, the Company concluded that its Spanish thermo-solar assets were required to be included in the scope of IFRIC 12. As such, and because the change was driven by a change in facts and circumstances, the Company originally began to apply IFRIC 12 to such assets prospectively from that date (September 1, 2011). As a result, from January 1, 2008 through September 1, 2011, the Company originally determined that these assets were not under the scope of IFRIC 12, and therefore such plants were accounted for in accordance with IAS 16 as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and classified under the "Fixed Assets in Projects" line item. Capitalized costs derived from the construction of the plants were recorded in "Other Operating Income—Work performed by the entity and capitalized and other". Once IFRIC 12 began to be applied to these assets on September 1, 2011, the Company reclassified its solar-thermal plant assets from "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" to "Intangible Assets in Projects" and, in accordance

F-288

Consolidated condensed interim financial statements

    with IAS 11, the total contract revenue for the construction of the plants (including amounts previously eliminated in consolidation) began to be recognized from September 1, 2011 based on the "percentage of completion" method, up to the finalization of construction of the plants.

    During the year 2013, in connection with the SEC Staff's review of this Registration Statement, the Company has reconsidered the assumptions and conclusions made in 2011, which led to the application of the accounting policy for thermo-solar plants in Spain described above. As a result, on June 30, 2013, the Company decided, based on the provisions of IAS 8.14, to apply an alternative acceptable accounting treatment which would better reflect the reliability and comparability of financial information, consisting of the revision of the method in which it applied IFRIC 12 to its thermo-solar assets in Spain already constructed or under construction upon application of IFRIC 12 and of the revision of the date on which IFRIC 12 was applied to these assets (January 1, 2011 instead of September 1, 2011). The revised accounting treatment has consisted in applying IFRIC 12 prospectively from January 1, 2011 (as this was the date the administrative rulings were received) by derecognizing, in accordance with IFRIC 12.8 and IAS 16, the Company's thermo-solar plant assets previously recognized at cost as "Property, Plant and Equipment in Projects" and recognizing those thermo-solar plant assets at fair value as "Intangible Assets in Projects". The difference of €165 million has been recorded as a sale of property, plant and equipment on January 1, 2011 within "Other Operating Income" on the consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011. From January 1, 2011, only the remaining contract revenue, costs and margins generated after such date for the ongoing construction of the plants began to be recognized based on the "percentage of completion" accounting method, up to the end of construction of the plants, in accordance with IAS 11. In addition, the revenue and operating profit that was previously deferred upon original adoption of IFRIC 12 and that was being recognized prospectively during fiscal years 2011 (from September 1, 2011) and 2012 have been eliminated. The change in application date also resulted in the recognition of revenues and costs associated with the construction activities that occurred between January 1, 2011 and September 1, 2011 that had been previously eliminated in consolidation. In accordance with the terms and requirements of IAS 8 for Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, the Company applied this change in accounting policy by recasting its 2012 and 2011 consolidated financial statements. Total recasted revenues and operating profits related to the Company's thermo-solar activity in Spain amounted to €843 million and €234 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2011 (including the one-time gain of €165million recorded within "other operating income"), versus €649 million and €60 million, respectively, which had been recognized during this same period prior to the voluntary accounting change described above.

    The following table shows the impact of the voluntary change in accounting policy on the consolidated statements of financial position as of December, 31 2012 and December 31, 2011 and on the consolidated income statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. The recasting did not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements as of or for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Note 3. — Critical accounting policies

        The Accounting Policies followed in these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those established in Abengoa's Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2012 which are described in Note 2 to such Consolidated Financial Statements.

        In Abengoa's Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements corresponding to the six month period ended June 30, 2013 estimates and assumptions have been made by the Management of the Group and the Management of the consolidated subsidiaries (and subsequently verified by their Directors), in order to quantify some of the assets, liabilities, income, expenses and commitments recorded therein.

        The most critical accounting policies that involve estimations, are as follows:

    Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill.

    Consolidation through de facto control.

    Revenue from construction contracts.

    Income taxes and recoverable amount of deferred tax assets.

    Share-based payments.

    Derivatives and hedging.

    Concession agreements.

        A full description of the above mentioned critical accounting estimates and judgments is provided in Note 3 to the Abengoa's Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2012.

        Although these estimates and assumptions are made using all available facts and circumstances, it is possible that future events may require management to amend such estimates and assumptions in future periods. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8, in the Consolidated Income Statement of the year in which the change occurs. During the first six months of 2013, in opinion of the Directors there were no significant changes to the estimates made at the end of 2012.


Note 4. — Financial risk management

        Abengoa's activities are undertaken through its operating segments and are exposed to various financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and capital risk.

        The risk management model attempts to minimize the potential adverse impact of such risks upon the Group's financial performance. Risk is managed by the Group's Corporate Finance Department, which is responsible for identifying and evaluating financial risks in conjunction with the Group's operating segments, quantifying them by project, region and company.

        Additionally, the sources of finance are diversified, in an attempt to prevent concentrations that may affect our liquidity risk.

        Written internal risk management policies exist for global risk management, as well as for specific areas of risk, such as foreign exchange risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, the use of hedging instruments and derivatives and the investment of cash surpluses.

        In addition, there are official written management regulations regarding key controls and control procedures for each company and the implementation of these controls is monitored through internal audit procedures.

        These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required for annual financial statements, and should be read together with the information included in Note 4 to Abengoa's Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2012.


Note 5. — Financial information by segment

5.1.
Information by business segment

    As indicated in Note 1, the Abengoa's activity is grouped under the following three activities which are in turn composed of seven operating segments (eight operating segments until the sale of shareholding in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U. (Befesa)) as defined by IFRS 8:

    Engineering and construction; includes our traditional engineering activities in the energy and water sectors, with more than 70 years of experience in the market as well as the development of solar technology.

      This activity comprises two operating segments:

      Engineering and construction — Abengoa is specialized in carrying out complex turn-key projects for thermosolar plants, solar-gas hybrid plants, conventional generation plants, biofuels plants and water infrastructures, as well as large-scale desalination plants and transmission lines, among others. This activity covers the operating segment.

F-291


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated condensed interim financial statements

      Technology and other — This segment includes those activities related to the development of thermosolar technology, water management technology and innovative technology businesses such as hydrogen energy or the management of energy crops.

    Concession-type infrastructures; groups together the company's proprietary concession assets that generate revenues governed by long term sales agreements, such as take-or-pay contracts, tariff contracts or power purchase agreements. This activity includes the operation of electric (solar, cogeneration or wind) energy generation plants and transmission lines. These assets generate low demand risk and we focus on operating them as efficiently as possible.

      This activity currently comprises four operating segments:

      Solar — Operation and maintenance of solar energy plants, mainly using thermosolar technology;

      Transmission — Operation and maintenance of high-voltage transmission power line infrastructures;

      Water — Operation and maintenance of facilities aimed at generating, transporting, treating and managing water, including desalination and water treatment and purification plants;

      Cogeneration and other — Operation and maintenance of conventional cogeneration electricity plants.

    Industrial production; covers Abengoa's businesses with a commodity component, such as biofuels (industrial waste recycling was part of this activity until the sale of shareholding in Befesa, see Note 7.1). The company holds an important leadership position in these activities in the geographical markets in which it operates.

      This activity is comprised of an operating segment:

      Biofuels — Production and development of biofuels, mainly bioethanol for transport, which uses cereals, sugar cane and oil seeds (soya, rape and palm) as raw materials.

    Abengoa's CODM assesses the performance and assignment of resources according to the above identified segments. The CODM in Abengoa considers the revenues as a measure of the activity and the EBITDA (Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) as measure of the performance of each segment. In order to assess performance of the business, the CODM receives reports of each reportable segment using revenues and EBITDA. Net interest expense evolution is assessed on a consolidated basis given that the majority of the corporate financing is incurred at the holding level and that most of the related assets are held at project companies which are financed through non-recourse project finance. The depreciation, amortization and impairment charges are assessed on a consolidated basis in order to analyze the evolution of net income and to determine the dividend pay-out ratio. These charges are not taken into consideration by CODM for the allocation of resources because they are non-cash charges.

    The process to allocate resources by the CODM takes place prior to the award of a new project. Prior to presenting a bid, the company must ensure that the non-recourse financing for the new project has been obtained. These efforts are taken on a project by project basis. Once the project has been awarded, its evolution is monitored at a lower level and the CODM receives periodic information (revenues and EBITDA) on each operating segment's performance.

6.1.
Changes in the consolidation group

    During the six month period ended June 30, 2013, 28 subsidiaries and 4 joint ventures, were added to the consolidation group. In addition, 59 subsidiaries, 4 associates and 3 joint ventures were no longer included in the consolidation group.

Main acquisitions and disposals

a)
Acquisitions

There were no significant acquisitions during the six month period ended June 30, 2013 neither during the year ended December 31, 2012.

b)
Disposals

On 22 February 2013, Abengoa, through its subsidiary Asa Investment AG, signed a purchase agreement with Corning Incorporated whereby it sold its Brazilian subsidiary, Bargoa S.A., a company which manufactures telecommunications components. The transaction price was set at 80 million US dollars (€61 million). The transaction was subject to a number of conditions, among which was the approval of the Brazilian Competition Authority. This approval was granted before May 2, 2013, the date when Abengoa received the final payment on satisfaction of all conditions of the contract. This sale brought Abengoa a cash inflow of 50 million US dollars (€38 million) and generated an after-tax profit of €29 million.

In June 13, 2013 Abengoa reached a strategic agreement with the European private equity fund, Triton Partners (Triton), to sell 100% of Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U. Note 7 on Discontinued Operations gives further details on this transaction.

On March 16, 2012, the Company reached an agreement with Compañía Energética Minas Gerais (CEMIG) to sell the 50% stake that Abengoa S.A. still owned in four

        transmission line concessions in Brazil (STE, ATE, ATE II and ATE III). On July 2, 2012 we received €354 million of cash proceeds corresponding to the total price agreed for the shares. The gain from this sale has amounted to €4 million and is recorded in 'Other operating income' in the 2012 Consolidated Income Statements.

Business combinations

    During the six month period ended June 30, 2013, no significant business combinations were carried out by the Group.


Note 7. — Discontinued operations

7.1.
Sale of shares in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U.

    On April 18, 2013 the company reached an exclusive agreement with certain investment funds managed by Triton Partners to wholly transfer Abengoa's shareholding in Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.L.U.

    The sale agreement was signed on June 13, 2013, by which the agreed sale price was €1,075 million (considering the net debt adjustments, total consideration to Abengoa amounts to €620 million).

    The sale of this shareholding involves a cash deposit, received on July 15, 2013, of €331 million. The balance of the agreed payment, to complete the aforementioned figure of €620 million, will consist of:

    A deferred payment of €17 million (€15 million held as a deposit until ongoing litigations are resolved and two million Euros in long-term receivables from a client of Befesa Medioambiente).

    A credit note of €48 million to mature in five years, accruing annual interest of 2% in the first year, 4% in the second, 6% in the third, 8% in the fourth and 12% in the fifth year, and payable at the expiration of each period.

    A deferred payment of €225 million through a convertible loan with 15 years maturity and subject to two extension options of five years each at the discretion of the venture capital fund. The loan's principal shall be settled with a single repayment at maturity and accrues interest at the 6-month Euribor rate applicable on the date the agreement comes into effect, plus a 6% spread, annual accrual and an option for the fund to capitalise the accrued interest and increase the loan or pay the interest at the end of each accrual period. Certain triggering events, which include Befesa's insolvency, a maximum net debt/ebitda ratio of 8.0 throughout the life of the convertible loan, and failure to meet certain financial objectives in the last three years of the 15-year loan (minimum expected operating cash flow, minimum cash coverage ratio of 1.3) would result in the automatic conversion of the loan into 14.06% of Befesa's shares. Furthermore, under certain scenarios of sale of Befesa by the fund, and conversion of the convertible loan into the 14.06% of Befesa's shares, the fund can require that Abengoa sells its 14.06% ownership together with the sale of the fund's ownership and under the same conditions applicable to the fund. In any case, if Abengoa does not receive such requirement from the fund, Abengoa can sell its 14.06% ownership coming from the conversion together with the remaining ownership sold by the fund and in this case the sale will be valid only if the acquirer also bought the 14.06%.

      For accounting purposes, the convertible loan has been treated as a hybrid financial instrument with the existence of an embedded derivative (because of the option of redeeming the convertible loan to Befesa Medioambiente shares should any of the aforementioned triggers

      occur) with respect to the receivable arising from the convertible loan. Paragraph 11 of IAS 39 'Financial Instruments' establishes that this embedded derivative is not 'closely related' to the receivable arising from the convertible loan and should be valued separately. However, in terms of the initial valuation of the derivative, given the derivative's characteristics and special nature, initial fair value cannot be reliably measured in isolation in the absence of an active market and comparable transactions.

      In accordance with the provisions of IAS 39.13, in cases where the initial valuation of an embedded derivative cannot be reliably determined, the Company has declared this initial valuation to be the difference between the overall fair value of the hybrid financial instrument and the fair value, calculated separately and in isolation, of the receivable from the purchasing party. Fair value of the receivable amounts to €170 million, taking into account the annual capitalisation of the interest and a discount rate of the Spanish bond, with a maturity similar to the convertible loan plus a market spread, of 7.5%. The value of the embedded derivative has been valued at zero at the date of disposition (June 13, 2013) and as of June 30, 2013 because it is not considered likely the occurrence of any of the events that would trigger the conversion of the convertible loan into the 14.06% of Befesa's shares due to today's expected improbability of Befesa being insolvency, overcoming a maximum net debt/ebitda ratio of 8.0 throughout the life of the convertible loan, and failure to meet certain financial objectives in the last three years of the 15-year loan, or Befesa being sold by Triton as of today. These events will be continuously monitored and the embedded derivative value adjusted to its fair value.

      The convertible loan is included under the caption"Other Receivable Accounts" in non-current assets in the consolidated condensed statements of financial position.

    As of June 30, 2013, all the conditions necessary to close the transaction were fulfilled (including the required approvals from the competition authorities). All that remained was the mandatory delivery of the shares and the payment of the corresponding price under the conditions outlined above, which occurred on July 15, 2013. In accordance with the above, the Company has recorded the sale transaction, derecognizing the assets and liabilities of this shareholding, and recognizing a gain of €0.4 million in the 'Results for the year from discontinued operations, net of taxes' in the Consolidated Interim Income Statement for the six month period ended on June 30, 2013.

    Taking into account the significance of the activities carried out by Befesa to Abengoa, the sale of this shareholding is considered as a discontinued operation in accordance with the stipulations and requirements of IFRS 5, 'Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations'.

    In accordance with this standard, the results of Befesa until the closing of the sale and the result of this sale are included under a single heading in Abengoa's Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. Likewise, the Consolidated Income Statement for the six month period ended June 30, 2012, which is included for comparison purposes in Abengoa's Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 also includes the results generated by Befesa under a single heading. The Company has also recasted the information presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the years ended December, 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, to make it comparable with the information as of June 2013.

    During the six month period ended June 30, 2013, the decrease in Property, plant and equipment in projects is mainly due to the property, plant and equipment in projects of Befesa (€-290 million), as a result of its exclusion from the consolidation scope following the sale of its shareholding, and due to the negative effect of the depreciation of the Brazilian real with respect to the Euro (€-31 million).

Consolidated condensed interim financial statements

    The most significant variations during the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 correspond to an increase in other receivable accounts due to the recognition of long-term receivable accounts by the vendor note and the convertible loan received from the Befesa sale (see Note 7), partially offset by the reclassification to current financial investments of deposits as guarantee of short-term projects. Additionally, there was an increase in derivative assets (see Note 11).

    Other credit receivables increased during the six month period ended June 30, 2013 due to the account receivable from the Befesa sale (see Note 7) and due to the reclassification from non-current financial investments of deposits as of guarantee of short-term projects, partially offset by the maturity of some deposits as of guarantee of certain projects.

    The amount at June 30, 2013 of Current financial investments corresponding to companies with non-recourse financing is €104,920 thousand (€267,479 thousand at December 31, 2012).

        Fair value of derivative assets increased in the six month period ended June 30, 2013 due to new interest rate derivatives contracted, which was partially offset by the decrease in fair value of call options on Abengoa's own shares that were signed to hedge the convertible notes, mainly due to a decrease in the stock price of the shares of Abengoa, which is a principal factor in the evaluation of the embedded derivatives and the options, and by the decrease due to the exclusion of Befesa from the consolidation scope following the sale of its shareholding.

        Fair value of derivative liabilities has decreased in the six month period ended June 30, 2013 mainly due to the favorable evolution in interest rate derivatives for hedging, measured according to IFRS 13. The decrease was also due to a decrease in the fair value of the derivative liabilities embedded in convertible notes issued in 2009 and 2010 and to the partial cancellation of the embedded derivative component of convertible

        The fair value amount transferred to the Consolidated Interim Income Statement in the six month period ended June 30, 2013 for the financial instruments derivatives designated as hedging instruments is a loss of €46,280 thousand (loss of €13,735 thousand in the six month period ended June 30, 2012).

        At the end of the six months ended June 30, 2013, the net amount of the fair value of derivatives recorded directly in the Consolidated income statement as a result of not meeting all the requirements of IAS 39 to be designated as accounting hedges represented a loss of €786 thousand (loss of €469 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2012).

    453,368,227 class B shares with a nominal value of 0.01 Euros each, all in the same class and series, each of which grants One (1) voting right and which afford its holder economic rights identical to the economic rights of Class A Shares ('Class B Shares' and, together with class A shares, 'Shares with Voting Rights').

        Abengoa's shares are represented by book entries. Class A and B shares are listed on the Madrid and Barcelona Stock Exchange and on the Spanish Stock Exchange Electronic Trading System (Electronic Market). Class A shares have been listed since November 29, 1996 and class B shares since October 25, 2012. The Company presents mandatory financial information on a quarterly and semiannual basis.

        In accordance with notifications received by the company and in compliance with reporting requirements to communicate shareholding percentages and the information received from relevant parties, shareholders with a significant holding as of June 30, are as follows:

        On September 30, 2012, the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting approved a capital increase of 430,450,152 class B shares with a nominal value of €0.01 per share, charged to our freely available reserves, which have been distributed for no consideration to all existing shareholders on the basis of four class B shares for each class A share or class B share which they hold ('the Capital increase'). Therefore, no dilution or further concentration with respect to our share capital occurred.

        The General Shareholders' Meeting approved a right of voluntary conversion for the class A shareholders to convert their class A shares with a nominal value of 1 Euro into class B shares with a nominal value of 0.01 Euros during pre-set windows until December 31, 2017. Following the exercise of this right, after each conversion window, a capital reduction has taken place and will take place, by reducing the par value of a number of converted class A shares to 0.99 euros per share, by creating a non-available reserve.

        Since the approval by the General Shareholder's Meeting of the afore-mentioned conversion right of class A shares into class B shares, six capital conversions have taken place after six conversion windows periods; the last one has finalized on July 15, 2013.

        Regarding the operations carried out during the period, the number of treasury stock purchased amounted to 4,216,543 class A shares and 34,788,142 class B shares and treasury stock transferred amounted to 1,762,258 class A shares and 11,843,513 class B shares, with a net result of €-84,153 thousand recognized in equity (€-961 thousand in 2012).

        The General Shareholders' meeting held on April 7, 2013 approved a dividend of €0.072 per share, which added up to a total dividend of €38,741 thousand (€37,664 thousand in 2012).


Note 15. — Non-recourse financing (project financing)

        There are certain entities within the Group for which, in general, the main commercial purpose is the long-term development of integrated products which are financed through non-recourse project finance.

    5,297,598     5,256,772  
           

    During the six month period ended June 30, 2013 the increase in non-recourse financing was mainly due to the drawings in relation to transmission lines projects (€268 million), to the co-generation project in Tabasco, Mexico (€42 million), to the desalination plant project in Tenes, Algeria (€41 million), to the financing obtained for capital contribution in thermosolar projects in South Africa (€84 million), and to the drawings for the bioenergy business in Brazil (€36 million). On the other hand, non-recourse financing decreased due to the exclusion of Befesa from the consolidation scope following the sale of its shareholding (€-369 million) and to the depreciation of the Brazilian real with respect to the Euro (€-82 million).

    To ensure that the Company has sufficient funds to repay the debt with respect to its capacity to generate cash flow, Abengoa has to comply with a Corporate Net Debt/EBITDA financial ratio with the financial institutions.

    According to the financing agreements, the maximum limit of this ratio is 3.0 for the years 2012, 2013 and until December 30, 2014 and 2.5 starting December 31, 2014. As of June 30, 2013, Corporate Net Debt/EBITDA financial ratio is 2.32 according to the conditions of the financing agreements.

    As described in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 and in accordance with IAS 32 and 39 and the Terms and Conditions of the issuance, since Abengoa has a contractual right to choose the type of settlement and one of these possibilities is paying through a variable number of shares and cash, the conversion option qualifies as an embedded derivative. Thus, the convertible notes are considered a hybrid instrument, which includes a component of debt and an embedded derivative for the conversion option held by the bondholder.

    Convertible notes 2014

    In relation to the Convertible notes for an amount of €200 million issued on July 24, 2009 and maturing in 2014, Abengoa, S.A. repurchased, on January 17, 2013, €99.9 million nominal amount for a purchase price of €108.8 million. The carrying value of the liability component of this note at June 30, 2013 amounts to € 92,809 thousand, corresponding to a nominal amount of €100.1 million (€178,720 thousand at December 31, 2012, corresponding to a nominal amount of €200 million).

    Additionally, a net loss of €4,815 thousand was recorded as a result of the partial repayment of the convertible notes due 2014 corresponding to an income of €7,212 thousand to the fair value measurement of the embedded derivative component cancelled and a loss of €12,027 thousand due to the difference between the amount paid and the liability cancelled.

    On the other hand, in order to partially hedge the derivatives embedded in the notes convertible, during the years 2011 and 2010 the Company purchased two call options over 7,000,000 Abengoa's own shares with a strike price of €21.125 per share, maturing on July 24, 2014 (over 35,000,000 Abengoa's shares with a strike price of €4.22 after the distribution of class B shares approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting held on September 30, 2012). The fair value of such call options at December 31, 2012 was €4,714 thousand, while the fair value was €359 thousand on June 30, 2013. The decrease in fair value has been recorded as a finance expense amounting to €4,355 thousand recorded in 'Other finance income' in the Consolidated Income Statement for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

    For the six month period ended June 30, 2013 finance income has decreased with respect to the same period in the previous year mainly due to lower interest income from loans and credits in Brazil, partially offset by higher interest rates benefits derivatives as a result of income for the time value of interest rate options, that in the same period in the previous year this impact was a loss classified in Finance expenses.

    Finance expenses have increased for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the same period in the previous year, mainly due to the increase of other finance debts expenses due to the convertible notes and ordinary notes issued during the first months of 2013 (see Note 16.1) and to higher losses coming from interest rate derivatives hedging cash flows due to the higher amount of negative fair value transferred to Consolidated income statement.

    The net financial expenses for non-recourse financing project companies is €-54,693 thousand (€-49,144 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2012).

    For the six month period ended June 30, 2013 the heading 'Other finance income' has increased when compared to the same period in the previous year, mainly due to the change in fair value of embedded derivatives of the convertible bonds, net of change in fair value of the call options over Abengoa's own share, which hedge the embedded derivatives partially, amounting to a net gain of €94,466 thousand, see Note 16.3 (€14,111 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2012).

    The heading 'Other finance expenses' has increased for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in the previous year mainly due to an increase in outsourcing of payables expenses and to commodity derivatives losses corresponding to the interruption of the hedging relationship, when the transaction hedged is no longer expected to occur, partially offset by lower other finance losses. In addition, other finance losses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 correspond primarily to bank fees and commissions, financial guarantees, letters of credit and costs related to wire transfers, as well as, losses from partial repayment of the convertible notes due 2014 (see Note 16.3).

    The net of 'Other incomes and financial expenses' corresponding to Non-recourse financing project companies was €-12,217 thousand (€-16,573 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2012).


Note 19. — Income tax and tax situation

19.1.
The effective tax rate for the period presented has been established based on Management's best estimates.

19.2.
The effective tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 was -72% (the effective tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was -423%) higher than the previous period, primarily due to less recognition of certain Spanish government incentives for export activities and incentives under Article 23 of the Corporate Income Tax Act, as well as, gains tax exempt.


Note 20. — Financial instruments fair value

        The information on the financial instruments measured at fair value, is presented in accordance with the following level classification:

    Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

    Level 2: Measured on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

    Level 3: Measured on inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

        The caption Derivatives — non-hedge accounting includes the fair value of the derivatives embedded in the convertible notes, the fair value of the call options over Abengoa's own shares, as well as those derivatives purchased with the purpose of hedging a market risk (interest rate, foreign exchange or commodities) that do not fulfil all the requirements to be recorded as hedges from an accounting point of view.

        During the periods presented, there have not been any reclassifications amongst the three level presented above.

20.1.
Level 2 valuation

    The majority of Abengoa's portfolio comprises financial derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, is classified as level 2 and corresponds mainly to the interest rate swaps. The valuation method used for this type of derivative is shown below.

    Description of the valuation method

    We value independently the interest rate swap and the credit risk.

    The method most commonly used by the market and applied by Abengoa for valuing interest rate swaps consists on discounting projected future flows based on the parameters of the contract. Flows are projected based on the forward rates calculated from the zero swap curves of the contract's benchmark indices (e.g. 3 month Euribor, 6 month Libor). These estimated flows are discounted with the zero swap curve for the reference period most used by the market for each currency. For the Euro, this is the 6 month Libor.

    The effect of the credit risk on the valuation of the interest rate swaps depends on the future settlement. If the settlement is favourable for the Company, the counterparty credit spread will be incorporated to quantify the probability of default at maturity. If the expected settlement is negative for the company, its own credit risk will be applied to the final settlement.

    Classic models for valuing interest rate swaps use deterministic valuation of the future of variable rates, based on future outlooks. When quantifying credit risk, this model is limited by considering only

F-313


Table of Contents

ABENGOA

Consolidated condensed interim financial statements

    the risk for the current paying party, ignoring the fact that the derivative could change sign at maturity. A payer and receiver swaption model is proposed for these cases. This enables the associated risk in each swap position to be reflected. Thus, the model shows each agent's exposure, on each payment date, as the value of entering into the 'tail' of the swap, i.e. the live part of the swap.

    Variables (Inputs)

    Currency interest rate curves are the inputs used when valuing interest rate swaps: the zero swap curve for the period set out in the contract for calculating forward rates and the zero swap curve for the period considered risk-free by the market for the discounting of projected flows.

    The market value of debt and the CDS (credit default swaps) available in the different sectors in which Abengoa operates (engineering and construction, renewables) have been taken into account as CDS when valuing credit risk.

20.2.
Detail of level 3 elements

    Level 3 includes shares in companies that, pursuant to the regulations in force, have not been included in the scope of consolidation and in which the Company's stake is greater than 5% and lower than 20%.

    Level 3 corresponds mainly to the 3% interest held by Abengoa, S.A. in Yoigo, S.A., a Spanish telecom operator, recorded at a cost of €32,997 thousand and held through the ownership of Siema Investments, S.L. (a holding company owned 100% by Abengoa, S.A.). Additionally the shareholders of Yoigo have granted this company several 'participative' loans in accordance with a pre-established plan, which involved a total disbursement equivalent to 3% of the total loan made to the company by its shareholders.

    Fair value within these elements was calculated by taking as the main reference the value of the investment—the company's cash flow generation based on its current business plan, discounted at a rate appropriate for the sector in which each of the company's is operating. Valuations were obtained from internal models. These valuations could vary where other models and assumptions made on the principle variables had been used, however the fair value of the assets and liabilities, as well as the results generated by these financial instruments are considered reasonable.

    The following tables shows the changes in the fair value of level 3 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012:

Note 21. — Earnings per share

        As explained in Note 14, on September 30, 2012, the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting approved an increase in class B share capital, charged to Abengoa's freely available reserves, which will be distributed for no consideration to all existing shareholders on the basis of four (4) class B shares for each class A share or class B share which they hold. Therefore, no dilution or further concentration with respect to our share capital has occurred.

        According to IAS 33, when ordinary shares are issued to existing shareholders for no additional consideration, the transaction is equivalent to a share split. In this case, the number of ordinary shares outstanding before the event is adjusted for the proportionate change in the number of ordinary shares outstanding as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Consequently, the number of shares has been adjusted to reflect this transaction in each of the presented periods.

Diluted earnings per share

    To calculate the diluted earnings per share, the average weighted number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding is adjusted to reflect the conversion of all the potential diluting ordinary shares.

    The potential diluting ordinary shares held by the group correspond to the warrants on class B shares issued in November 2011. The assumption is that all warrants will be exercised and a calculation is made to determine the number of shares that may have been acquired at fair value based on the monetary value of the subscription rights of the warrants still to be exercised. The difference between

Note 23. — Related party entities

        The only operation with related party entities that has taken place during the period corresponds to certain stock loan agreements signed by Abengoa with Inversion Corporativa IC, S.A. (IC) on January 9, 2013 for a total amount of 11,047,468 Class B shares to facilitate stock borrow liquidity to investors in the 2019 convertible notes.

        Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A. lends the shares to Abengoa and, at the end of the term receives them back, not receiving any consideration in return. Because the risks and benefits of the shares are not being transferred, Inversion Corporativa IC, S.A. continues recognizing the financial asset.

        On July 3, 2013, these agreements have been cancelled and the shares returned to Inversión Corporativa IC, S.A.


Note 24. — Employee benefit expenses

        Directors are remunerated as established in article 39 of the Bylaws. The remuneration of Directors is made up of a fixed amount as agreed upon at the General Shareholders' Meeting, and is not necessarily equal for all Directors. Additionally, they may participate in profit sharing programs, for a percentage between 5% and 10% (maximum) of the net income of the Company after the declaration of the dividends for the year. Travel expenses related to work undertaken by the board are reimbursed to Directors.

        Additionally, during the six month period ended on June 30, 2013 overall compensation paid to top level management of the Company (senior management who are not Executive Directors), including both fixed and variable components, amounted to € 8,100 thousand, including the Extraordinary Variable Compensation Plan approved in 2006 (€5,760 thousand for the period ended June 30, 2012).

        No advanced payments or credits are granted to members of the Board, nor are any guarantees or obligations granted in their favor.

        As of June 30, 2013 there existed €45,748 thousand in non-current personnel compensation obligations (€70,599 thousand as of December 31, 2012).


Note 25. — Subsequent events

        On 13 July 2013 Royal Decree-Act 9/2013 of 12 July 2013 (hereinafter, 'Royal Decree Act 9/2013') was published. This adopts urgent measures to ensure the financial stability of the system in order to mitigate the tariff deficit. In general, these measures address the following issues: (i) they enable the Government to approve a new legal and economic regime for existing installations for the production of electricity from renewable energy sources; (ii) they approve urgent measures in relation to the system governing the remuneration of distribution and transport activities; (iii) they envisage a set of measures in relation to the Electricity System Deficit Securitisation Fund; and (iv) they establish measures in relation to payments based on capacity, the assumption of the cost of the subsidised rate and the review of access tolls, among other things.

        Although the new legal and economic regime is still pending implementation, Royal Decree-Act 9/2013 establishes the pillars on which the future reform will be based. To this end, Article 30.4 of Act 54/1997 of 27 November 1997 on the Electricity Sector (Ley del Sector Eléctrico) is modified, and recognises the producer's right to earn some income from its participation in the market, with an additional remuneration which, if necessary, can cover the standard investment costs not recovered in the market by an efficient and well managed company. For the calculation of the specific remuneration it shall consider, for a typical installation, the proceeds from the sale of energy generated valued at the production market price, the average operating costs necessary for carrying out the activity, and the value of the initial investment in the

F-317

typical installation, all this with the aim of acknowledging a reasonable return for producers that, before tax, will be around the average yield in the secondary market for 10-year Government Bonds plus 300 basis points, and that in any case may be reviewed every 6 years.

        In line with the aim of the reform, Royal Decree-Act 9/2013 repeals Article 4 of Royal Decree-Act 6/2009 of 30 April 2009 approving the subsidised rate, Royal Decree 661/2007 of 25 May 2007 which regulates the electricity production activity under the special regime, and Royal Decree 1578/2008 of 26 September 2008 on the remuneration for the production of electricity using solar photovoltaic technology for installations postdating the deadline for maintaining the remuneration of Royal Decree 661/2007 of 25 May 2007 for such technology. However, in order to maintain both the flow of remuneration to the installations and the rest of the procedures, rights and obligations, it is stipulated that the provisions of the above mentioned rules will be applied on a transitional basis until the new legislation has been approved. As a result of the foregoing, until further legislation implementing the reform has been approved, all payment collection rights and settlements paid to the producers from 13 July 2013 shall be on account of the definitive regularisation and pending such regularisation. In addition, any changes arising from the pending legislative development could have an impact on the business, financial terms or operating results in the activities of electricity generation under the special regime. Abengoa will finish assessing the impact of this reform once the Government has published all the necessary details.

        Given that the afore-mentioned measures have been approved and made public after the date of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, they correspond to a circumstance occurred in the following period and do not correspond to an evidence or confirmation of conditions that existed prior to the closing of the reporting period ended June 30, 2013. In consequence, under IAS 10 on 'Events after the reporting period', its potential impacts should be considered after the closing of the reporting period ended June 30, 2013. In accordance with the analysis performed by the Company on the potential impacts that these measures could have, considering all the evidence available at the date of issuance of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, Management has concluded that the analysis carried out do not indicate an impairment in the carrying amount of assets related to thermosolar electricity generation activity in Spain. As a result, the Company does not expect to have impairment losses nor any default in the financial obligations related to these projects as a consequence of the measures established in Royal Decree 9/2013.

        Since June 30, 2013, apart from what is detailed above, no other events have occurred that might significantly influence the information reflected in the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, nor has there been any event of significant significance to the Group as a whole.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 6.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers

        The registrant maintains an insurance policy that protects its directors and officers from liabilities incurred as a result of actions taken in their official capacity.

        Under Spanish law, our directors shall be liable to the company, the shareholders and the creditors of the company for any damage they cause through acts or omission contrary to the law or our by-laws, or through acts or omissions carried out breaching the duties inherent to holding a director position. Any other person acting as a director in fact shall be personally responsible on this basis as well.

Item 7.    Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

        During the past three years, we issued securities which were not registered under the Securities Act as set forth below.

    On October 28, 2010, our direct, wholly-owned subsidiary, Abengoa Finance, S.A.U., issued $650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.875% Senior Notes due 2017 in an offering exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. The placement agents for the transaction were Credit Suisse Securities (Europe) Limited, Citigroup Global Markets Limited, Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and Merrill Lynch International. The 8.875% Senior Notes due 2017 are guaranteed on a senior basis by us and certain of our subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $642,240,000.

    On November 4, 2011, we issued 17,142,858 Class B shares and warrants to purchase an additional 4,020,124 Class B shares from FR Alfajor Holdings S.à.r.l. for a purchase price of €300 million in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(2) and Regulation S under the Securities Act. FR Alfajor Holdings S.à.r.l. is a wholly owned subsidiary of First Reserve Fund XII, L.P., which is a fund affiliated with First Reserve Corporation.

    On October 22, 2012, we increased our Class B share capital by 430,450,152 shares, charged to our freely available reserves, for no consideration to all existing shareholders on the basis of four Class B shares for each Class A share or Class B share which they held. The Class B shares issued to existing shareholders pursuant to this four-to-one stock split were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) under the Securities Act.

    On January 17, 2013, we issued €400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.25% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes due 2019 in an offering exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act.

Item 9.    Undertakings

        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless, in the opinion of its counsel, the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question, whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

        The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

        (1)    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreements certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

        (2)    For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A, and contained in the form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

        (3)    For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
