Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the pleasure to inform, in my role as Central Puerto S.A.s’ (the “Company”) market relationship responsible, that, on the date hereof, Proener S.A.U. (“Proener”), a wholly owned affiliate of the Company, acquired, directly and indirectly, 100% of the capital stock and votes of Empresas Verdes Argentina S.A., Las Misiones S.A. and Estancia Celina S.A.
As previously informed, the Company is currently analyzing investment alternatives targeted to increase its environmental performance and contributing to global decarbonization objectives. The Company’s growth in these complementary activities will enable it to explore new models oriented to the commitment of reducing the environmental impact of its operations.
In this regard, the Company acquired, on the date hereof, all of the capital stock and votes of Empresas Verdes Argentina S.A., Las Misiones S.A. and Estancia Celina S.A. These companies own forestry assets, consisting of approximately 88,063 hectares in the province of Corrientes, of which approximately 26,000 hectares are planted with pine out of a total of approximately 36,000 plantable hectares.

The Company is confident that this acquisition, strategically aligned with the acquisition of Forestal Argentina S.A. and Loma Alta Forestal S.A. (formerly Masisa Forestal S.A.) reported on December 27, 2022, represents a great opportunity for expansion, diversification, and consolidation in a new market.
