Risk and uncertainty factors
The Group remains exposed to a range of financial, operational, and strategic risks, which are actively monitored and managed across all levels of the organisation. As of the end of the second quarter of 2026, there have been no material changes to the Group’s overall risk exposure or assessment compared to those outlined in the 2025 Annual Report.
Key risk areas include:
Market and financial risk: The Group is directly and indirectly exposed to fluctuations in electricity prices, auctions, inflation, interest rates, and currency exchange rates, which can all impact investment returns and asset valuations. To mitigate these risks, the Group continuously monitors market developments and forecasts, and proactively adjusts its internal strategies, economic assumptions, and valuation models to reflect changing conditions.
Liquidity and capital access: As the Group increases its exposure to capital-intensive projects, it faces elevated liquidity and financing risks. These risks are actively managed through robust financial planning, close collaboration with financing partners, and a phased investment strategy aligned with project milestones and planned divestments.
Regulatory and policy risk: Changes in renewable energy policies, tax regimes, or regulatory frameworks may impact project timelines and profitability. The Group actively monitors policy developments and government signals to ensure timely adjustments to strategic plans and financial forecasts. Risks related to licensing, municipal veto rights, and concession approvals are mitigated through early stakeholder engagement and geographic diversification, which help reduce exposure to localised regulatory hurdles.
Geopolitical risk: Ongoing geopolitical tensions and conflicts continue to contribute to volatility across several markets. These developments may disrupt supply chains, alter regulatory environments, and impact trade agreements. The Group actively monitors geopolitical developments and regional market dynamics, updating strategic plans and financial forecasts to mitigate potential impacts. This includes scenario planning, geographic diversification, and close engagement with stakeholders to ensure resilience.
Project execution risk: Risks such as delays in permitting, grid access, and land acquisition remain material and can impact project timelines. In addition, global supply chain constraints such as limited availability of key components, may lead to increased costs and scheduling disruptions. The Group mitigates these risks through rigorous due diligence, flexible development timelines, and diversification across geographies and technologies to ensure resilience and execution agility.
Environmental and climate risk: Environmental considerations, including biodiversity, habitat protection, and land use can significantly influence permitting processes and project design. At the same time, climate change and the global energy transition continue to drive long-term demand for renewable energy, reinforcing the Group’s strategic direction. The Group integrates environmental factors early in project development and actively engages with stakeholders to ensure compliance and minimise ecological impact.
Business conduct and compliance risk: The Group is exposed to risks related to fraud, corruption, and noncompliance. These are mitigated through a robust internal control framework that includes a code of conduct, anti-corruption policies, IT security protocols, and supplier screening procedures. While exposure to fraud remains limited, the Group maintains vigilance through regular training, oversight, and reporting mechanisms. Compliance is followed up mainly by management on various levels, assisted by central Group functions. Magnora also has a whistleblowing channel on its website.
Cybersecurity and physical security: Cyberattacks and to some extent physical interference targeting infrastructure and businesses has been increasing the recent years. Power production and data centers are natural targets. The Group actively monitors threat intelligence and maintains its cybersecurity posture to safeguard operations, data integrity, and stakeholder trust. In both project development and operations, security receives high and increasing attention. This is increasingly relevant for data centers and renewable energy.
Human capital risk: The Group’s performance is closely tied to the expertise and continuity of its highly specialised team. The potential loss of key personnel remains an ongoing risk, particularly in areas requiring deep technical, regulatory, or market knowledge. This risk is mitigated through proactive succession planning, targeted recruitment efforts, and initiatives to retain and develop talent across the organisation.
Competition risk: The renewable energy sector is becoming increasingly competitive, with growing interest from established players and new entrants alike. The Group manages this risk through disciplined project selection and execution, rigorous cost control, and a strong market-oriented approach. By focusing on high-quality, strategically located projects and maintaining operational agility, the Group aims to preserve its competitive edge and deliver sustainable value in a dynamic market environment.
Cash flow and counterparty risk: Cash flows from subsidiaries and associated companies are dependent on effective operational execution and the timely achievement of project milestones, introducing both timing and counterparty risk. These risks are mitigated through contractual safeguards, active participation at the board level, and diversification of revenue streams across geographies, technologies, and counterparties to reduce dependency and enhance financial resilience.
The Group maintains a robust risk management framework and continues to focus on the most material uncertainties that could affect financial and operational performance. Risk exposures are reviewed regularly across all business units and governance levels. As of the end of the second quarter of 2026, the Group’s overall risk profile remains consistent with the disclosures provided in the 2025 Annual Report.
