The company said it expects both its adjusted operating profit (EBIT) and adjusted net profit to improve in 2023. In 2022, it posted an adjusted EBIT loss of 10.9 billion euros ($11.6 billion) and an adjusted net loss of 7.4 billion euros. On an unadjusted basis its net loss was 19.1 billion euros. "2022 was a real watershed year for Uniper," Tuomela, who will be replaced in March by former managing director of the federal finance agency Jutta Doenges, told analysts after presenting full-year results. Lower energy prices also reduced Uniper's derivative positions, which are marked at the end of each quarter, by nearly two-thirds to 76 billion euros at the end of December compared to end-September. Outgoing Uniper Chief Executive Klaus-Dieter Maubach expects the impact of lower gas prices to give the group's future leadership more scope to accelerate the group's turnaround.
