Executive summary
Revenue declined 17% year-over-year to £52.9m, mainly due to weak private EV sales and a challenging market for the Home segment.
Adjusted EBITDA loss widened to £20.7m from £15.3m, impacted by a £4.4m bad debt charge and restructuring costs.
Gross margin improved by 150bps to 31.7% due to pricing, operational efficiency, and mix improvements.
Energy Flex revenues grew 15-fold to £0.6m, establishing a recurring revenue platform.
EDF, the majority shareholder, has made a firm offer to acquire the remaining shares, and the company drew £15m from a £30m credit facility in Q1 2025.
