Production in the renewable energy portfolio increased by 33.7% for the first half of 2021 compared with the first half of 2020 mainly thanks to the contribution of recent investments, as well as better solar radiation in North America and in Spain.
 
In our efficient natural gas and heat and transmission lines segments, where revenue is based on availability, we maintained very high availability levels. In water, the decrease in availability was largely due to the installation of some new safety-related equipment at one of our plants during the first quarter of 2021.
 
Liquidity and Debt
 
As of June 30, 2021, cash at Atlantica’s corporate level was $83.2 million, compared with $335.2 million as of December 31, 2020. Additionally, as of June 30, 2021, the Company had $440.0 million available under its Revolving Credit Facility and therefore total corporate liquidity of $523.2 million, compared with $750.2 million as of December 31, 2020.
 
As of June 30, 2021, net project debt7 was $4.77 billion, compared with $4.70 billion as of December 31, 2020, while net corporate debt8 was $941.8 million, compared with $658.5 million as of December 31, 2020. The net corporate debt / CAFD pre-corporate debt service ratio9 was 3.4x as of June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, our average corporate debt maturity stands at approximately 6 years.
 
Green Senior Notes
 
On May 18, 2021, Atlantica successfully issued $400 million in Green Senior Notes with a 4.125% annual interest rate and 2028 maturity. Proceeds were used to fully prepay the NIFA 2019 due in 2025, extending part of Atlantica’s corporate debt maturities and to finance accretive growth opportunities. The Green Senior Notes were issued in compliance with the Green Bond Principles 2018, making it the fourth green financing issued by Atlantica to date.

Coso: On April 7, 2021, Atlantica closed the acquisition of a 135 MW renewable asset in California. Coso has PPAs signed with three investment grade off-takers with a 19-year average remaining contract life. The total investment was $170 million, including $130 million in equity value and $40 million paid on July 15, 2021 to reduce project debt.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
This press release also includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA including unconsolidated affiliates, Adjusted EBITDA including unconsolidated affiliates as a percentage of revenues (margin) and CAFD. Non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of our performance or liquidity under IFRS as issued by IASB and should not be considered alternatives to operating profit or profit for the period or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB or any other generally accepted accounting principles or as alternatives to cash flow from operating, investing or financing activities. Please refer to the appendix of this press release for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. Also, please refer to the following paragraphs in this section for an explanation of the reasons why management believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures (including CAFD and Adjusted EBITDA including unconsolidated affiliates) in this press release provides useful information to investors.
 
We present non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that they and other similar measures are widely used by certain investors, securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity. The non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures employed by other companies and may have limitations as analytical tools. These measures may not be fit for isolated consideration or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under IFRS as issued by the IASB. Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios are not measurements of our performance or liquidity under IFRS as issued by the IASB. Thus, they should not be considered as alternatives to operating profit, profit for the period, any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, any other generally accepted accounting principles or as alternatives to cash flow from operating, investing or financing activities. Some of the limitations of these non-GAAP measures are:
 
7



 
they do not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
 
they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
 
they may not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary, to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;
 
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often need to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA and CAFD do not reflect any cash requirements that would be required for such replacements;
 
some of the exceptional items that we eliminate in calculating Adjusted EBITDA reflect cash payments that were made, or will be made in the future; and
 
the fact that other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and CAFD differently than we do, which limits their usefulness as comparative measures.
 
We define Adjusted EBITDA including unconsolidated affiliates as profit/(loss) for the period attributable to the Company, after adding back loss/(profit) attributable to non-controlling interest, profit/(loss) from discontinued operations, income tax, share of profit/(loss) of associates carried under the equity method, finance expense net, depreciation, amortization and impairment charges. CAFD is calculated as cash distributions received by the Company from its subsidiaries minus cash expenses of the Company, including third party debt service and general and administrative expenses.
 
Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA including unconsolidated affiliates and CAFD are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because it provides them with an additional tool to compare business performance across companies and across periods. Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired.
 
Our management believes CAFD is a relevant supplemental measure of the Company’s ability to earn and distribute cash returns to investors and is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of our ability to make quarterly distributions. In addition, CAFD is used by our management team for determining future acquisitions and managing our growth. Adjusted EBITDA and CAFD are widely used by other companies in the same industry.
 
8



 
Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA and CAFD as measures of operating performance to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis. They also readily view operating trends as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations, for evaluating actual results against such expectations, and for communicating with our board of directors, shareholders, creditors, analysts and investors concerning our financial performance.
 
In our discussion of operating results, we have included foreign exchange impacts in our revenue and Adjusted EBITDA including unconsolidated affiliates by providing constant currency growth. The constant currency presentation is not a measure recognized under IFRS and excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations. We calculate constant currency amounts by converting our current period local currency revenue and Adjusted EBITDA using the prior period foreign currency average exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our prior period reported results. This calculation may differ from similarly titled measures used by others and, accordingly, the constant currency presentation is not meant to substitute for recorded amounts presented in conformity with IFRS as issued by the IASB nor should such amounts be considered in isolation.
