ACEA SPA ( (IT:ACE) ) has provided an update.
Acea’s board has approved the 2025 financial statements, reporting record results underpinned by a shift toward regulated infrastructure, operational restructuring and disciplined investment of €1.53 billion mainly in water, power grids and environmental plants. Pro-forma EBITDA rose 7% to €1.42 billion, recurring net profit increased 15% to €376 million, and leverage improved with a Net Debt/EBITDA of 3.28x, enabling a 26% higher dividend of €1.20 per share, partly extraordinary, and supporting continued growth in water leadership, grid upgrades and expanded waste-to-energy capacity.
In water, Acea consolidated its leadership through territorial expansion, strategic infrastructure works and integration of know-how via the Aquanexa acquisition, while also winning a project to strengthen Brazzaville’s water infrastructure. In electricity, EBITDA growth was driven by grid investments aligned with the energy transition, and in the environmental segment the group accelerated capex to boost waste treatment capacity, secured approvals for a new Rome waste-to-energy plant and launched robotics and automation to enhance operational efficiency and sustainability.
