Legal proceedings and disputes
Enexis Holding N.V. and its group companies were involved in various legal proceedings and disputes at year-end 2023. Based on the financial risk, provisions have been made or liabilities have been included in the financial statements with respect to the claims received.
Guarantees issued
Enexis Holding N.V. has issued guarantees to third parties through its group companies Enexis Netbeheer B.V., Enexis Personeel B.V., Enexis Vastgoed B.V. and Enpuls B.V. for a total of € 6 million (2022: € 6 million).
At the time of the sale of Fudura B.V. in the third quarter of 2022, guarantees were issued to the buyer Lion Bidco B.V. This concerns title guarantees, tax guarantees and warranties that arose in the period prior to the sale. The liability in connection with these guarantees is limited to a maximum period of seven years after the transaction date. A potential breach of the guarantees is insured therefore Enexis's maximum liability in the event of a breach of the guarantees is nil.
Guarantees were issued to SPIE at the time of Ziut’s sale in 2017. This concerns title guarantees, taxation-related guarantees, and securities that were issued in the period prior to the sale, whereby liability is limited to a maximum period of 7 years after the transaction date and where threshold amounts were also agreed.
