Clarification of News Report

This is in response to your request for clarification of the news article entitled “AC Energy expects to hit half of 5,000MW RE goal in 2021” posted in Business Mirror (Online Edition) on 19 November 2020. The article reported in part that:

“. . . .

‘To us, it’s a very unique window of opportunity and we will be there to make sure we will be leaders in the RE space. Our aspiration is to be the largest listed RE in Southeast Asia.’

To make it happen, the company needs equity of $1.8 to $2 billion. Francia had said that the company has lined up various sources of capital requirements.

‘We have existing cash reserves of about $700 million and then we have a series of fund raising activities, such as stock rights offerings, private placement and follow-on offering, which we are targeting next year. Among those three fund raising activities, we expect to raise an additional $500 to $600 million to add to our existing cash reserves of $700 million today.

So, if you add all, that’s $1.2 to $1.3 billion. So, we need $500 to $600million more. We will deal with that later on because we don’t need all that cash until 2024 to 2025,’ he said.”

We confirm the accuracy of the above quoted article, with clarification that the cash reserves referred to in the article includes amounts held through the Company’s affiliate Presage Corporation, which will be the subject of a property-for-share swap between the Company and parent AC Energy, Inc. (now AC Energy and Infrastructure Corporation), subject to regulatory approvals.

We will advise the Exchange promptly of any developments or relevant information as applicable.

Thank you.
