Background (a) (b) Organisation EN+ GROUP IPJSC (the "Parent Company") was established as a limited liability company according to the legislation of the British Virgin Islands on 30 April 2002 under the name of Baufinanz Limited. On 24 December 2003 the Parent Company registered a change of its legal name to Sibir Power Metal Limited. On 18 March 2004 the Parent Company registered a change of its legal name to Eagle Capital Group Limited. On 25 August 2005 the Parent Company changed its domicile to Jersey and was renamed to En+ Group Limited. On 1 June 2017 the Parent Company changed its status to a public company and was renamed to EN+ GROUP PLC. On 9 July 2019 the Parent Company changed its domicile to the Russian Federation with a registration as EN+ GROUP International public joint-stock company (EN+ GROUP IPJSC). As at 31 December 2021 the Parent Company's registered office is Oktyabrskaya st. 8, office 34, Kaliningrad, Kaliningrad Region, 236006, Russian Federation. On 8 November 2017, the Parent Company successfully completed an initial public offering of global depositary receipts on the London Stock Exchange. On 17 February 2020, the Parent Company's ordinary shares were included into the "Level 1" part of the list of securities admitted to trading on Moscow Exchange. EN+ GROUP IPJSC is the parent company for a vertically integrated aluminium and power group, engaged in aluminium production and energy generation (together with the Parent Company referred to as "the Group"). As at 31 December 2021 Mr. Oleg Deripaska beneficially controls and exercises voting rights in respect of 35% of the voting shares of the Parent Company and his direct or indirect shareholding cannot exceed 44.95% of the shares of the Parent Company.

Related party transactions are detailed in note 23. Operations The Group is a leading vertically integrated aluminium and power producer, which combines the assets and results of its Metals and Power segments. The Metals segment operates in the aluminium industry primarily in the Russian Federation, Ukraine, Guinea, Jamaica, Ireland, Italy and Sweden and is principally engaged in the mining and refining of bauxite and nepheline ore into alumina, the smelting of primary aluminium from alumina and the fabrication of aluminium and aluminium alloys into semi-fabricated and finished products. The Power segment engages in all major areas of the power industry, including electric power generation, power trading and supply. It also includes supporting operations engaged in the supply of coal resources to the Group. The Group's principal power plants are located in East Siberia and Volga Region, the Russian Federation. (c) Business environment in emerging economies The Russian Federation, Ukraine, Jamaica and Guinea have been experiencing political and economic changes that have affected, and may continue to affect, the activities of enterprises operating in these environments. Consequently, operations in these countries involve risks that typically do not exist in other markets, including reconsideration of privatisation terms in certain countries where the Group operates following changes in governing political powers. Starting in 2014, the United States of America, the European Union and some other countries have imposed and gradually expanded economic sanctions against a number of Russian individuals and legal entities. The imposition of the sanctions has led to increased economic uncertainty, including more volatile equity markets, a depreciation of the Russian rouble, a reduction in both local and foreign direct investment inflows and a significant tightening in the availability of credit. As a result, some Russian entities may experience difficulties accessing the international equity and debt markets and may become increasingly dependent on state support for their operations. The longer-term effects of the imposed and possible additional sanctions are difficult to determine. The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has further increased uncertainty in the business environment (note 1(e)). The consolidated financial statements reflect management's assessment of the impact of the Russian, Ukrainian, Jamaican and Guinean business environments on the operations and the financial position of the Group. The future business environment may differ from management's assessment. (d) OFAC sanctions (e) On 6 April 2018, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") designated, amongst others, the Parent Company, JSC EuroSibEnergo ("EuroSibEnergo”) and UC RUSAL Plc (from 25 September 2020 UC RUSAL IPJSC, "UC RUSAL") as Specially Designated Nationals ("SDN") (the "OFAC Sanctions"). As a result, all property or interests in property of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries located in the United States or in the possession of U.S. Persons were blocked, frozen, and could not have been transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in. Several general licenses were issued at the time of the designation and subsequently certain transactions were authorised with the Parent Company, EuroSibEnergo and UC RUSAL, and with their respective debt and equity. On 27 January 2019, OFAC announced the removal of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries, including UC RUSAL and EuroSibEnergo, from OFAC's SDN list and Blocked Persons with immediate effect. The removal was subject to and conditional upon the satisfaction of a number of conditions including, but not limited to: • • Ending Mr Oleg Deripaska's control of the Group, through the reduction of his direct and indirect ownership interest in the Parent Company to below 50%; Establishing independent voting arrangements for the Parent Company's shares held by certain shareholders; Corporate governance changes, including, inter alia, overhauling the composition of the EN+ Board to ensure that independent directors constitute the majority of the Board, and ongoing reporting and certifications by the Parent Company and UC RUSAL to OFAC concerning compliance with the conditions for sanctions' removal. COVID-19 During the 2021, the Russian and global economies continue to recover from the pandemic as a result of an increase in business activities and due to certain government support measures. However at the date of the financial information, the Group thoroughly monitors the COVID-19 spread and maintain a number of measures to mitigate the operational risks associated with it. 150 151
