ENEL GENERACION CHILE PRESS RELEASE FINANCIAL STATEMENT AS OF DECEMBER 31,2016 ENEL GENERACIÓN CHILE ANNOUNCES CONSOLIDATED RESULTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016

(Amounts expressed in millions of Chilean Pesos)

  • Net earnings attributable to the shareholders of Enel Generación Chile increased from Ch$ 392,868 million as of December 2015 to Ch$ 472,558 million as of December 2016, which equals a 20% increase.

  • Net electricity generation amounted to 17,564 GWh, 4% less than the figure as of December 2015. This level of generation was primarily due to lower hydro generation (- 2,764 GWh) as a consequence of the drought that has affected the southern region of the country, which was offset by higher thermal generation (+2,065 GWh) explained by greater availability of the Bocamina and San Isidro power plants during 2016.

  • Physical sales increased 1% (+ 131 GWh) reaching 23,689 GWh, due to greater sales to regulated customers related to higher demand during the last year.

  • Operating revenues improved 8% totaling Ch$ 1,659,727 million, due to greater physical sales to regulated customers and a higher average energy sales price.

  • Procurement and services costs increased 2% reaching a total Ch$ 895,060 million as of December 2016.

  • On August 31, 2016, the Company decided to relinquish the water rights related to the Bardón, Chillán 1 and 2, Futaleufú, Huechún and Puelo hydroelectric projects leading to a Ch$ 35,384 million asset write-off loss related to such projects. Also, at the end of 2016, the Company decided to write off the investment on two thermal projects, Tames 2 and Totoralillo, resulting in a Ch$ 1,096 million loss.

  • As a result of the factors previously mentioned, EBITDA of Chilean operations increased 15% in 2016, reaching a total Ch$ 594,772 million.

  • Net financial result amounted to a Ch$ 35,678 million loss, which compares favorably to the Ch$ 114,252 million loss booked for 2015, mostly explained by positive exchange rate differences.

  • On September 14, 2016, Enel Generación Chile S.A. sold its shares in GNL Quintero S.A. for Ch$ 132,821 million. This divesture is part of the Group's process of selling non-core business assets.

  • On October 4, 2016, the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting of Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A. approved changing the Company's name to "Enel Generación Chile S.A." This new name became effective legally on October 18, 2016.
