- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Notwithstanding net current liabilities of £ 102,876,996 as at 31 December 2025 (2024: £ 99,639,288), the Directors have performed a going concern assessment which indicates that the Company will have sufficient funds, through funding from its intermediate parent company, ERG Power Generation S.p.A., to meet its liabilities as they fall due during the going concern assessment period. ERG UK Holding Ltd has indicated its intention to continue to make available such funds as are needed by the Company for the going concern assessment period. Consequently, the Directors are confident that the Company will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “On 15 February 2026, armed conflict commenced in Iran following regional military escalation and this has had a significant impact on the world economy. The Company's operations are predominantly based in the United Kingdom and it has no direct trading activities or physical presence in Iran. As the conditions giving rise to the conflict did not exist at the reporting date, this event is classified as a non-adjusting event under FRS 102 and no adjustments have been made to the 2025 financial statements. The unstable political situation is still developing and remains uncertain meaning the Company cannot reasonably estimate the future impact these events will have on its financial position, operations or cash flow but Management will continue to monitor.”
