Uniper closes the financial year 2020 with an adjusted EBIT (earnings before
interest and taxes) of EUR 998m, being at the upper end of the guidance
range of EUR 800m-1000m (Prior Year: EUR 863m). Adjusted net income comes in
at EUR 774m, also at the upper end of the EUR 600m-800m guidance range
(Prior Year: EUR 614m).

In line with the previously communicated dividend target 2020, the Board of
Management and the Supervisory Board will propose to the Annual General
Meeting to distribute a dividend of EUR 1.37 per share for the 2020
financial year. This corresponds to a total dividend payment of EUR 501m.

For the financial year 2021, assuming a normal course of business, Uniper
expects an adjusted EBIT between EUR 700m and 950m and an adjusted net
income between EUR 550m and 750m.

Uniper will communicate the dividend policy for the fiscal year 2021 at a
later stage. The discussion on the dividend policy and the timing of the
dividend policy release with the major shareholder Fortum is pending.

The key figures used are explained in the Annual Report of Uniper SE. The
