REVIEW REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To the President and Directors of

Pampa Energía S.A.

Legal address: Maipú, 1

Autonomous City of Buenos Aires

Tax Code No.: 30-52655265-9

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated condensed interim financial statements of Pampa Energía S.A. and its subsidiaries (hereinafter "the Company"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of September 30, 2022, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2022, the consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine months then ended and selected explanatory notes.

The balances and other information for the fiscal year 2021 and its interim periods are an integral part of the aforementioned financial statements and should be considered in connection with such financial statements.

Board's responsibility

The Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for the preparation and presentation of the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, adopted by the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences (FACPCE, for its acronym in Spanish) as professional accounting standards and included by the National Securities Commission (CNV, for its acronym in Spanish) in its regulations, as approved by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and is therefore responsible for the preparation and presentation of the consolidated condensed interim financial statements mentioned in the first paragraph, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Information” (IAS 34). 

Scope of our review

Our review was limited to the application of the procedures established under International Standards on Review Engagements ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, adopted as a review standard in Argentina by Technical Pronouncement No. 33 of the FACPCE and approved by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB). A review of interim financial information consists of inquiries of Company staff responsible for preparing the information included in the consolidated condensed interim Financial Statements and of analytical and other review procedures. This review is substantially less in scope than an audit examination conducted in accordance with international standards on auditing and consequently it does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on the financial position, the consolidated comprehensive income, or the consolidated cash flows of the Company.

Conclusion

On the basis of our review, nothing has come to our attention that makes us think that the consolidated condensed interim financial statements mentioned in the first paragraph of this report have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

In accordance with current regulations, we report, in connection with Pampa Energía S.A., that:

NOTA 1: (Continuation)

1.2 Economic context

The Company operates in an economic context which main variables are experiencing volatility due to political and economic events both in the domestic and international spheres.

At the domestic level, in the first quarter of 2022 Argentina and the International Monetary Fund reached an agreement defining tax and monetary goals for the country and agreeing on the refinancing of debt maturities. However, monthly inflation levels have remained high, reaching a cumulative 66.1% (IPC) during the first nine months of 2022 and a 43.4% depreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar for the same period according to the BNA exchange rate. Furthermore, exchange restrictions have remained in force and even tightened (see Note 2.4), continuing to affect the foreign currency value.

At the international level, Russia’s invasion to Ukraine in early 2022 entailed an important global destabilization factor, which mainly resulted in lower growth expectations and increased inflation due to increased prices of food and energy (mainly oil and natural gas).

The increase in international energy prices may adversely affect Argentina’s fiscal balance. In this respect, it is worth highlighting that the Argentine Government, aiming to substitute fuel imports and strengthen the domestic supply, has promoted a project of the construction of the Néstor Kirchner Gas Pipeline, which would allow for increasing transportation capacity by 24 million cubic meters of gas per day through the installation and mounting of a total 1,020 km pipeline, in two stages: the first one, providing for the construction of 553 kilometers to supply the Buenos Aires metropolitan area, and the second, for the construction of 467 additional kilometers to supply large urban centers in central and northern Argentina with unconventional gas generated in the Vaca Muerta block, in the Province of Neuquén. In 2022, ENARSA tendered and awarded the different tranches making up the first stage of the gas pipeline to the companies in charge of its construction, with an estimated US$ 1,500 million cost to be financed with national treasury funds and the wealthiest segment’s solidarity contribution. As of the issuance of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, the first construction stage is underway, and commissioning is expected for June 2023 —concurrently with the peak winter demand—, with an associated transportation capacity of 11 million cubic meters of gas per day. In addition to the original scheme, ENARSA decided to incorporate the construction and installation of two turbochargers that would allow for increasing capacity to 20 million cubic meters of gas per day for the first stage, which tendering process is underway. In parallel, the Government announced the IV and V Gas Plan to provide producing companies with the incentives and terms necessary to make investments allowing for the gas production increase required to inject and fill the pipeline from June 2023.

NOTA 1: (Continuation)

Regarding the energy industry, the sustained inflation increase and increased political-economic uncertainty have affected the electricity distribution company’s payment chain, added to deferrals in the National Treasury contributions, as a result of which CAMMESA has recorded delays in payment terms to generators and hydrocarbon producers exceeding 90 days in August 2022. Moreover, on June 16, 2022, PEN Executive Order No. 332/22 established a subsidies segmentation system for electricity and natural gas utility residential customers. Under it, the Argentine Government, which currently covers an average of 70% of the cost of energy, has launched an initiative to reach fairer and more reasonable tariffs with a subsidies reduction and distribution scheme based on each household’s economic capacity, providing that the highest-income segment should verify a gradual subsidies’ reduction until fully covering the cost of energy by the end of 2022.

The context of volatility and uncertainty continues as of the date of issuance of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements.

The Company’s Management permanently monitors the evolution of the variables affecting its business to define its course of action and identify potential impacts on its assets and financial position.

The Company’s financial statements should be read in the light of these circumstances.

NOTE 2: REGULATORY FRAMEWORK

2.1 Generation

2.1.1Remuneration scheme for the spot market

On April 21, 2022, SE Resolution No. 238/22 was published in the BO. This resolution provided a 30% increase in spot generation remuneration values from the February 2022 economic transaction, and an additional 10% increase from the June 2022 economic transaction, which involves a cumulative 43% increase from June 2022. It also abrogated the application of the utilization factor; therefore, 100% of the power capacity remuneration will be settled.

Lastly, it canceled, effective from the February 2022 economic transaction, the transitory additional remuneration set by SE Resolution No. 1037/21 and instrumented through Note No. NO-2021-108163338-APN-SE#MEC.

2.1.2 Seasonal Programming

On April 29, 2022, SE Resolution No. 305/22 was published, which approved the winter seasonal programming (May 2022 - October 2022) and eliminated the subsidy on the power capacity and energy reference price for GUDI, keeping power capacity and energy reference prices for public health and education entities, the general and residential demand, and the stabilized transportation prices approved by SE Resolution No. 105/22; approved new unsubsidized power capacity and reference prices; and set a differential price for users performing cryptocurrency mining activities.

On May 28, 2022, SE Resolution No. 405/22 was published, which provided for 36.6% and 26.1% increases in the seasonal prices for energy applicable to the general non-residential demand and WEM’s residential demand, respectively, applicable from June 1, 2022, and maintained the power capacity reference price for these user categories. Regarding Tierra del Fuego’s WEM system, there was a 31.3% increase in energy reference prices for Large Distribution Company Users (“GUDI”) ≥ 300 kW (except for crypto) and for the distributor’s general demand applicable between June 1 and October 31, 2022.

SE Resolution No. 605/22 approved the winter seasonal reprogramming (August 2022 - October 2022), which increased the power capacity and reduced the energy reference price for GUDI by 23% and 1.8%, respectively, provided for a 15% increase in the reference price for GUDI performing cryptocurrency mining activities, maintained transportation reference prices, and updated the unsubsidized power capacity and energy reference prices by 40% and 21%, respectively.

Under the residential users’ utility subsidy segmentation process, on August 30, 2022 SE Resolutions No. 627/22 and No. 629/22 were published, approving increases between 39% and 44.4% in energy reference prices for public health and education entities with a demand exceeding 300 kW, and increases between 65.9% and 74.8% in energy reference prices for the higher-income residential demand.

Later, SE Resolution No. 649/22 established, effective from September 1, 2022, the application of approved reference prices for the higher-income residential demand above-mentioned, to the middle-income residential demand exceeding the electricity consumption caps set by the different provinces.

NOTE 2: (Continuation)

Finally, SE Resolution No. 719/22 was published, which approved the final summer seasonal programming (November 2022 – April 2023) modifying prices current as of October 2022 and provided for: 1.42% and 19.60% reductions in power capacity and energy reference prices for GUDI>300 kW; increases between 21.12% and 23.77% in energy reference prices for public health and education entities with a demand exceeding 300 KW, increases between 22.56% and 25.37% in energy reference prices for the non-residential demand; increases between 32.42% and 35.37% in energy reference prices for the higher-income residential demand, and 1.42% and 19.16% decreases in unsubsidized power capacity and energy reference prices, respectively. Furthermore, from February 1, 2023, a 6.56% reduction in the power capacity reference price, and a 14.18% and 14.23% increase in the energy price for GUDI>300 kW are applied on the first quarter’s values. Lastly, the charge allocated to the Electric Power National Fund was updated to $ 320/MWh and $ 512/MWh effective from November 1, 2022 and April 1, 2023, respectively, and the new spot price was set at $ 1,682/MWh.

2.1.3 Distribution’s Term Market from Renewable Energy Sources (“MATER”)

Resolution No. 370/22 was passed on May 16, 2022, which modified the MATER system allowing for the sale of renewable energy under this system to meet the GUDI and distribution utility company’s demand.

Under the approved sales guidelines, distributors would execute contracts under conditions to be freely agreed by the parties. The contracts’ execution will not imply the exclusion from the joint purchases’ mechanism for GUDIs qualified as authorized large users. The total energy volume under contracts may not exceed each distribution company’s GUDI segment demand reported to CAMMESA. Billings will be made directly by the generation to the distribution company.

2.1.4 MATER dispatch priority

SE Resolution No. 1,260/21 allowed project awardees under the different Renovar rounds failing to meet the committed commissioning terms to terminate their contracts with CAMMESA and commission the project with a power capacity lower than that originally committed. A large part of the dispatch capacity released as a result of this resolution was made available for MATER’s tender process for the third quarter of 2022.

Under this new tender process, Pampa requested a 41 MW dispatch priority for the extension of PEPE III and an additional 40 MW for the Wayra I Wind Farm project (see Note 5.2.4).

Given the large number of projects submitted, a tie-breaking mechanism was implemented on October 31, 2022, and the Company was assigned a 41 MW dispatch priority for the extension of PEPE III.

2.2 Oil and Gas

2.1.1 Natural gas for the residential segment and CNG

On May 27, 2022, SE Resolution No. 403/22 provided for the update of new natural gas prices at the Transportation System Entry Point (“PIST”) under the existing contracts executed pursuant to the natural gas production promotion scheme (“GasAr Plan”), resulting in a reduction of the subsidy payable by the Federal Government as from June 1, 2022. This modification does not impact the final price collectible by the Company.

2.2.2. Currency access for incremental oil and natural gas production systems and regional and national supplier’s employment, labor and development promotion system

On May 28, 2022, PEN Executive Order No. 277/22 was published, which established currency access systems for the incremental production of oil (“RADPIP”) and natural gas (“RADPIGN”), as well as the regional and national supplier’s employment, labor and development promotion system (“RPEPNIH”). This executive order mainly provided for eased access to the MLC for beneficiaries increasing their gas and/or oil production.

Beneficiaries must meet the following requirements to access the RADPIP and the RADPIGN: (i) be registered with the SE’s oil companies registry; (ii) accede to the system; (iii) attain an incremental oil production or natural gas incremental injection levels; (iv) comply with the RPEPNIH; and (v) be an awardee and fulfill the obligations provided under the Gas.Ar Plan (exclusively for the RADPIGN).

Beneficiaries under these systems may access the MLC to make principal and interest payments of commercial or financial liabilities abroad, including liabilities with non-resident affiliates, and to pay earnings and dividends for closed and audited balance sheets and/or the repatriation of direct investments by non-residents. This benefit may be transmitted to direct suppliers. Moreover, access to the MLC under this system will not be subject to BCRA’s prior authorization requirement in case exchange regulations so require.

Currency access benefits for acceding the RADPIP and/or RADPIGN will be taken into consideration and timely discounted.

Regarding the RPEPNIH, supplier development plans guaranteeing regional and national integration will be controlled. Moreover, a hiring scheme is contemplated granting preferences to regional and national goods and/or services suppliers.

As of the date of presentation of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, PEN Executive Order No. 277/22 has not been regulated by the SE or the BCRA and, consequently, has had no impact on the Company.

2.3 Transmission

Transener and Transba’s tariff situation

On February 25, 2022, ENRE Resolutions No. 68/22 and 69/22 approved the new hourly remuneration effective from February 1, 2022 and establishing a 25% and 23% increase compared to the remuneration effective from August 2019 for Transener and Transba, respectively. Considering the difference between the financial economic projections presented and the values finally approved by the ENRE, the Company has submitted a motion to review the file and a preliminary challenge. Moreover, on March 15, 2022, the corresponding Motions for Reconsideration against Resolutions No. 68/22 and 69/22 were filed. ENRE Resolutions No. 147/22 and 148/22, communicated on May 10, 2022, partially upheld the Motions for Reconsideration filed by Transener and Transba, respectively, establishing a 67% and 69% increase, effective from February 1, 2022, in comparison to the remuneration in force as of August 2019 for each company.

Since August 2022, Transener has filed notes and held meetings with the SE and the ENRE requesting an update to the current transitional tariffs effective from September 2022, to be charged against the increase to be assessed for 2023. To this effect, the 2023 Economic and Financial Projection was presented with an explanatory document and a detail of the projected investment plan. Moreover, a presentation was made to CAMMESA’s Board of Directors to put the criticality of the transportation sector on record. Conversations with regulatory authorities are currently underway, and Transener has requested the definition of the steps to take for the requested tariff update.

Under Resolution No. 539/2022, on October 20, 2022 the ENRE called for a Public Hearing, which will be held on November 30, 2022, to inform of and gather feedback on the electricity transmission utility concessionaires’ proposals towards a transitional tariff update under the comprehensive tariff review process prior to defining the tariffs applicable by the concessionaires.

2.4 Regulations on access to the MLC

The main regulations on MLC inflows and outflows issued by the BCRA in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 are summarized below:

The following is extended until December 31, 2023, inclusive: (i) the need for BCRA’s prior authorization to access the MLC for the cancellation of principal on financial debts with foreign affiliates, and (ii) the obligation to submit a refinancing plan for certain debts and principal maturities scheduled until December 31, 2023.

Moreover, in early March 2022, BCRA’s intervention was incorporated into the Integrated Imports Monitoring System (SIMI). Under it, the BCRA can assign categories different from the SIMI affidavits upon verification of the conditions outlined in the applicable regulations, which defined the minimum terms to access the MLC to pay such imports.

Additionally, on July 21, 2022, the BCRA issued Communication “A” 7552, which introduced the following modifications to foreign exchange regulations: (i) it included the holding of Argentine certificates of deposit (“CEDEAR”) within the US$ 100,000 availability limit allowed to access the MLC and provided that, until August 19, 2022 (inclusive), entities may exceed such limit considering the holding of CEDEAR acquired until July 21, 2022; (ii) it provided for the presentation of an affidavit declaring that, on the date of access to the MLC and in the previous 90 calendar days, no domestic sales of securities to be settled in foreign currency, exchanges of securities issued by foreign active residents, transfers of securities to foreign depositary entities, local acquisitions of securities issued by non-residents and settled in pesos, acquisitions of CEDEAR representing foreign shares (from July 22, 2022), acquisitions of private debt securities issued in a foreign jurisdiction, or deliveries of funds in domestic currency or other domestic assets (except for foreign-currency funds deposited with local financial entities) to any natural or legal, resident or non-resident person, and whether or not affiliated, receiving as prior or subsequent consideration, whether directly or indirectly, on its own or through any affiliate, controlled or controlling entity, foreign assets, crypto-assets or securities deposited abroad and, lastly, the commitment not to perform any of the detailed transactions for 90 calendar days following the request for access to the MLC should be evidenced.

On October 11, 2022, Joint Resolution No. 5,271/22 replaced the SIMI and the Integral Foreign Payments Monitoring System (“SIMPES”) with the Argentine Republic’s Imports System (“SIRA”) and the Argentine Republic’s Imports and Foreign Service Payments System (“SIRASE”), respectively. Moreover, BCRA’s Communication “A” 7622, dated October 13, 2022, established that no more advance, sight, or deferred without clearance payments may be made through these new mechanisms, except for certain cases contemplated in the regulation.

More information on Argentina’s foreign exchange regulations can be found at the Central Bank’s website: www.bcra.gov.ar.

The acquisition contributed to the Group revenues from sales for $ 606.7 million (US$ 4.2 million) and net earnings for $ 126 million (US$ 1.2 million) for the August 12 - September 30, 2022 period.

If the acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2022, the consolidated revenues from sales and the results for the period as of September 30, 2022 would have been $ 170,586 million (US$ 1,397 million) and $ 42,980 million (US$ 348 million), respectively.

Closing to combined cycle project

CTB is moving forward with the execution of the works to increase its installed capacity from 567 MW to 847 MW.

Given the problems in the normal execution of the project affecting the works’ terms and costs, on July 1, 2022, CTB and the Joint Venture made up by SACDE and Techint Compañía Técnica Internacional S.A.C.E I. entered into a new addendum to the construction agreement, which mainly stipulated as follows: (i) a new work schedule to reach the combined cycle’s commissioning; and (ii) the recognition in favor of the Joint Venture of the right to an US$8 million compensation on account of the incurred term and cost variations.

As a result of the modification of the combined cycle’s commissioning schedule, CTB has updated, as of June 30, 2022, its recoverable amount estimates as of December 31, 2021, and no impairment losses have been recorded as a result of the performed recoverability assessment. As of September 30, 2022, CTB has not identified any additional indications that may impact the assumptions taken into consideration in the above-mentioned assessment.

(the “Mixed Companies”) that exploit four hydrocarbon production areas in that country: Oritupano Leona, La Concepción, Acema and Mata (the “Areas”). As consideration for the assignment, the Assignee will pay to the Company 50% of any payment it obtains, whether monetary or in kind (including, without limitation, an indemnity, compensation, reparation or similar) related to the direct or indirect interest in the Mixed Companies and the Areas. This transaction is subject to the change of control approval by the Minister of Popular Power of Petroleum of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

NOTE 6: (Continuation)

Those estimates and judgments are evaluated on a continuous basis and are based on past experiences and other reasonable factors under the existing circumstances. Actual future results might differ from the estimates and evaluations made at the date of preparation of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements.

In the preparation of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial statements, management judgements on applying the Company’s accounting policies and sources of information used for the respective estimates are the same as those applied in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

6.1.1 Impairment in the value of non-financial assets

The Company regularly monitors the existence of events or changes in circumstances which may indicate that its non-financial assets’ book value may not be recoverable.

As of June 30, 2022, due to Company’s strategic reasons and aiming to focus its investments in the development and exploitation of its unconventional gas reserves, and also in line with the Rincón del Mangrullo block’s Joint Venture members’ strategy, future drilling and workover activities were rescheduled for the next few years, which involves a 2.7 MMBoe recategorization of reserves to contingent resources. Therefore, and considering a 12.4% after-tax discount rate, the Company has updated, as of June 30, 2022, its recoverable amount estimates as of December 31, 2021. The recoverability assessment for this CGU resulted in the recognition of impairment losses for $ 3,682 million (US$ 29.4 million). As of September 30, 2022, the Company has not identified any additional indications that may impact the assumptions taken into consideration in the above-mentioned assessment.

6.2 Financial risk management

The Company’s activities are subject to several financial risks: market risk (including the exchange rate risk, the interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

No significant changes have arisen in risk management policies since last year.

Income tax liability

The tax inflation adjustment mechanism set out in Title VI and different supplementary sections of the Income Tax Law is inconsistent in certain aspects generating a confiscatory lien, including, but not limited to, the failure to update tax losses and the cost of acquisitions or investments made before January 1, 2018, which bears resemblance with the parameters in re “Candy S.A.,” where the CSJN ordered the application of the inflation adjustment mechanism.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company and its subsidiaries hold a provision for the additional income tax liabilities that should have been assessed for the periods ended until December 31, 2021 for the stated reasons. The provisioned amount, including compensatory interest, is disclosed under “Non-current income tax liabilities.”

12.5.1 Issuance of CB Class 8

On January 18, 2022, the Company issued Class 8 CB in the amount of $ 3,107 million at a Badlar rate + 2%, maturing in 18 months. This is the first green bond issued by Pampa, which reflects the commitment to finance projects with a positive impact on the environment and to diversify the country’s energy generation matrix. The issue was recognized by Fix Ratings, an affiliate of Fitch Ratings, with the rating of Green Bond (BV1), the best possible grade, since it is aligned with the four main components of ICMA’s (International Capital Market Association) Green Bond Principles (GBP). It was issued in observance of the “Guidelines for the Issuance of Social, Green and Sustainable Bonds in Argentina” of the CNV Rules and the provisions of BYMA’s Social, Green and Sustainable Guide and the BYMA Rules, and also makes up BYMA’s Social, Green and Sustainable Bonds Panel.

The Company will allocate the issue’s proceeds to finance the expansion of PEPE III wind farm.

12.5.2 Issuance of Class 10, 11 and 12 CB

On July 15, 2022, the Company issued Class 11 CB for $ 12,690 million, accruing interest at a variable BADLAR rate plus an annual 0% spread and maturing on January 15, 2024. Class 10 and Class 12 CB were declared unawarded.

Additionally, on August 8, 2022 the Company reopened Class 11 CB for $ 8,963.9 million at an issuance price of 1.0305. The total face value of outstanding Class 11 CB amounted to $ 21,654.6 million.

12.5.3 Series T CB Exchange Offer

On June 16, 2022, the Company launched an exchange offer for holders of Series T CB maturing in 2023 originally issued by Petrobras Argentina S.A. (currently merged with the la Company) dated July 21, 2016 for a face value of US$ 500 million, under its Global Program authorized pursuant to CNV Resolution No. 17,162 dated August 15, 2013.

Once the exchange offer expired on July 29, 2022, the information and exchange agent informed the Company that US$ 193.8 million and US$ 213.3 million, representing 38.8% and 42.7% of the Series T Notes’ outstanding principal, had been validly tendered for exchange under Option A and Option B, respectively, totaling a US$ 407.1 million participation and representing approximately 81.4% of the outstanding Series T Notes’ capital amount.

Consequently, on August 8, 2022, after meeting the conditions established in the exchange offer documents, Pampa issued Class 9 CB for a face value of US$ 292.8 million, accruing interest at an annual fixed 9.5% rate and maturing on December 8, 2026, payable in three consecutive annual installments starting in 2024, and paid US$ 122.1 million in cash. For each US$ 1,000 of Series T CB’s capital amount validly tendered and accepted for exchange, eligible holders received, together with the payment of interest accrued on Series T CB up to the settlement date: (i) Option A: approximately US$ 377.2 in Class 9 CB and US$ 630.2 in cash; and (ii) Option B: US$ 1,030 in Class 9 CB.

As a result of the debt swap, the Company disclosed losses for $ 1,941 million (US$ 14 million) under “Other financial results” to reflect the change in the payment estimates discounted at Series T CB’s original effective interest rate, since they were not deemed substantially different from the issuance conditions for Class 9 CB, in accordance with IFRS.

As of the date of issuance of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, outstanding Series T CB amount to US$ 92.9 million.

NOTE 12: (Continuation)

The techniques used for the measurement of assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss, classified as Level 2 and 3, are detailed below:

- Derivative Financial Instruments: calculated from variations between market prices at the closing date of the period, and the amount at the time of the contract.

- Shares: it was determined using the income-based approach through the “Indirect Cash Flow” method, that is, the net present value of expected future cash flows, mainly through the collection of dividends taking into consideration the 4.04% and 4.55% equity interest, direct and indirect, in TJSM and TMB, respectively.

NOTE 13: EQUITY COMPONENTS

13.1 Share Capital

As of September 30, 2022, the capital stock amounts to $ 1,384 million, including $ 4 million of treasury shares.

Acquisition of the Company’s treasury shares

On March 10, 2022, the Board of Directors resolved to suspend Program 11, approved on December 1, 2021 for a maximum amount of US$ 30 million and an initial term of 120 calendar days, as the Company’s share and ADR prices exceeded the set repurchase limit values of $167 and US$ 19, respectively.

On May 11, 2022, the Board of Directors resolved to approve Program 12 for a maximum amount of US$ 30 million, an initial term of 120 calendar days, and a maximum price of US$ 22 per ADR and $ 194 per common share.

As of the issuance of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, these programs have already expired.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, the Company indirectly acquired 0.9 million ADRs for a value of US$ 18.2 million.

Capital stock reduction

NOTE 13: (Continuation)

13.2 Earning per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the result attributable to the Company’s equity holders by the weighted average of outstanding common shares during the year. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the weighted average of outstanding common shares to reflect the conversion of all dilutive potential common shares.

Potential common shares will be deemed dilutive only when their conversion into common shares may reduce the earnings per share or increase losses per share of the continuing business. Potential common shares will be deemed anti-dilutive when their conversion into common shares may result in an increase in the earnings per share or a decrease in the losses per share of the continuing operations.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share does not entail a conversion, the exercise or another issuance of shares which may have an anti-dilutive effect on the losses per share, and where the option exercise price is higher than the average price of ordinary shares during the period, no dilutive effect is recorded, being the diluted earning per share equal to the basic. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company does not hold any significant potential dilutive shares, therefore there are no differences with the basic earnings per share.

NOTE 15: CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND ASSETS

The main changes for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 regarding contingent liabilities reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2021 are detailed below:

15.1 Labor claim - Compensation Fund

As regards the different claims faced by the Company regarding the Benefits Plan known as “Compensating Fund”:

- The federal extraordinary appeal filed by the Company regarding the alleged plan underfunding was disallowed by the Appeals Chamber. Consequently, the Company filed a petition in error before the CSJN and an appeal on the grounds of unconstitutionality before the Supreme Court of Justice of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires.

- The Chamber of Appeals upheld the first-instance judgments that had dismissed the complaints filed in two claims by non-covered former employees seeking to be included in the plan. One of these judgments is final and conclusive; and

- The Company received an adverse judgment in a claim, on considering that the index (IPC) used to update the plan benefits is ineffective to keep their “constant value.” Consequently, the Company has filed an appeal before the applicable Chamber.

15.2 Environmental claims

- In the proceeding where plaintiff Martinez Lidia and other three plaintiffs claim financial compensation for alleged environmental affectation damages caused by living next to the Puerto General San Martin petrochemical plant (Rosario-Santa Fe), the Public Defender for the deceased plaintiff’s heirs was appointed, and he accepted this appointment.

- In the proceeding where plaintiff Fundación SurfRider Argentina seeks the recomposition of the alleged environmental damage having a collective impact or the compensation for the alleged damages caused by all companies owning gas stations in the coastal area of the City of Mar del Plata, the parties agreed on a stay of the procedural time limits until August 2022 to evaluate the possibility of reaching an agreement. The plaintiff reached an agreement with three co-defendants. The Chamber hearing the case referred it back to the first instance, and the Court ordered a series of information measures before serving notice of the agreement on the other co-defendants (including the Company).

NOTE 15: (Continuation)

The main changes for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 regarding contingent assets reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2021 are detailed below:

15.3 Administrative claims

- Regarding the Preliminary Administrative Claim (RAP) against the National Ministry of Economy (MECON) to claim the owed amount, plus the applicable interest, assumed by the Federal Government during the term of validity of PEN Executive Order No. 1,053/18 on account of the exchange difference between the price of the gas purchased by gas distributors and that recognized in their final tariffs during the April 2018 - March 2019 period, as of the date of presentation of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, a judgment was rendered dismissing the amparo on the grounds of undue delay submitted by the Company seeking that the defendant should state its position in this respect. The Company has filed an appeal against this decision, which was dismissed by the Chamber hearing the case. As MECON’s term to state its position on the RAP has expired, the Company has brought a complaint against the Federal Government.

- In the proceeding where Central Térmica Loma la Lata (currently Pampa) brought an administrative litigation complaint against the Federal Government on account of a contractual breach during the January-March 2016 period, the closing of the evidentiary stage was suspended on account of the proceeding’s link with the complaint subsequently field for the April 2016- October 2018 period.

15.4 Civil and Commercial claims

Regarding the arbitration claim against Petroecuador brought by Pampa Bloque 18 (former Ecuador TLC S.A.) as a result of certain breaches to the transportation agreement entered into on December 31, 2008, whereby the Ecuadorian Government undertook the oil transportation commitment through the heavy crude oil pipeline for the oil transportation capacity hired by Pampa Bloque 18, on August 3, 2022, the Arbitration Court rendered a final and conclusive award partially upholding the complaint. Even though the award was not annulled, Petroecuador filed an extraordinary protection proceeding before the Constitutional Court. It is worth highlighting that this proceeding does not suspend the execution of the arbitration award.

As the hydroelectric concessions timely granted by the Federal Government and, in some cases, by the Provinces approach expiration, on March 10, 2022, SE Resolution No. 130/22 was published, creating a Concessioned Hydroelectric Exploitations Team to evaluate the status of the hydropower concessions under national jurisdiction, including HIDISA, HINISA, and HPPL.

This team will be presided over by the Secretary of Energy (or the person appointed by him) and coordinated by a person with proven experience in the field. It will also be made up of representatives of the SE, CAMMESA, the ENRE, and IEASA. Furthermore, the Dam Safety Regulatory Body and water management and environmental protection authorities are invited to appoint a representative in the team.

The concessions' status report must be submitted within two years for the HIDISA and HINISA concessions, expiring in 2024, whereas the term for issuing the report for HPPL, which concession expires in 2029, will be later determined.

Finally, IEASA is entrusted with the technical audit of the power generation equipment.

NOTE 20: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

2023-2028 Plan for Ensuring and Boosting Federal Hydrocarbon Production, Domestic Self-Sufficiency, Exports, Import Substitution, and the Expansion of the Transportation System for all the Country’s Hydrocarbon Basins

On November 3, 2022, Executive Order No. 730/22 amending GasAr Plan’s scheme approved by Executive Order No. 892/20 was published in the BO.

The new system’s main guidelines are detailed below, with the delegation to the SE of the implementation of the necessary adjustments and regulations to instrument the plan being worthy of mention:

- Term: a new term is established until December 31, 2028.

- Volume: to be defined by the SE in each call for tenders with the purpose of:

i. consolidating a new 70 MMm3/d flat block (awarded under GasAr Plan’s Round 1 and 3), and

ii. developing the demand for incremental volumes to be evacuated using the new transportation capacity (TransportAr Program, SE Resolution No. 67/22).

- Injection commitment: considered for each period and basin, the amount of:

i. 70% of the base volume committed in Round 1,

ii. volumes for the base period awarded in Round 3; and

iii. volumes for the base period to be awarded under new Rounds, without considering additional winter volumes.

- Procedure: contracts will be awarded through a tender process to be devised by the SE.

- Injection priority: a priority is established for injection during oversupply periods considering the rounds’ chronological order and the most competitive price within each round.

- Exports: a priority is set for the export of natural gas and/or LNG on a firm basis during the summer seasonal period and/or the winter seasonal period once the domestic supply is met. Firm export quotas will be regulated by the SE and will be assigned in accordance with the following guidelines:

i. a percentage based on the awardee’s total volume share in all rounds;

ii. another percentage among awardees generating the higher discount compared to the cap price, weighed by volume, in future incremental rounds;

iii. in case one or more basins are ineligible for export, 10% of the eligible basins’ total volume available for export will be assigned to the ineligible basins’ awardees. The SE may increase this percentage to 15% based on the export volume requested from the ineligible basins;

iv. in each period, no producer may exceed the export limit of 30% of the total volume authorized for export or 50% of the delivery commitment, whichever is lower;

v. for the 2023-2024 summer period, priority volumes equivalent to 4 MMm3/d and 2 MMm3/d will be assigned to the Neuquina and the Austral basin, respectively, based on the dispatch priority established by SE Resolution No. 447/20;

vi. the minimum export price will be established by the SE; and

vii. the firm exportation volume may be subtracted from the maximum daily quantity under existing contracts with CAMMESA and/or ENARSA.

- Provisional payment: the payment percentage is increased from 75% to 85% of the calculated compensation.

- Incremental activity plan: compliance with the incremental activity commitment will be verified bi-annually on an accumulated basis, with the assistance of the Provinces. In addition to Force Majeure issues, the impossibility of importing critical goods or services and union conflicts affecting operations are deemed justifications for the breach of commitments.
