Executive summary

  • Strategic reset focused on cash preservation, cost reduction, and commercial viability without reliance on government subsidies.

  • Launched new products: Hy-5 portable cracker and LC30 fuel cell generator, targeting large addressable markets.

  • Secured key partnerships and joint ventures, including with ICL, Volex, and an S&P 500 company, to expand technology deployment and manufacturing.

  • Raised GBP 27.5 million gross to fund strategic initiatives and reduced headcount by 20% to streamline operations.

  • Focus for the coming year is on converting a growing commercial pipeline into contractual orders to drive revenue growth.

Financial highlights

  • Loss before tax of GBP 22.2 million, impacted by GBP 12.4 million in non-cash items and one-off charges.

  • R&D spend increased to GBP 11.7 million, with GBP 5.2 million capitalized; expected R&D tax credits of GBP 3.3 million in FY26.

  • Cash burn reduced to GBP 15.4 million, down GBP 11.2 million year-over-year.

  • Ended the year with GBP 25.3 million in cash, providing significant runway.

  • Sales were negligible (GBP 100,000) due to strategic shift away from AR2 units.

Outlook and guidance

  • Committed to delivering 15 LC30 units by October 2026, with potential to scale up if order backlog strengthens.

  • Capacity exists for up to 6,000 LC30 units per year, limited by fuel cell availability.

  • First Hy-5 unit with ICL expected to be commissioned in November; production capacity for Hy-5 is about 50 units per year.

  • No material uncertainty statement in latest audit; sufficient cash for at least 18 months, with future fundraising dependent on order book by September 2027.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
