GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
For The Year Ended 25 December 2024


The directors present their strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 25 December 2024.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
At TAE, we see a future fuelled by good, clean power: Electricity that is abundant, carbon-free, non-radioactive, and affordable for all, provided by commercial fusion energy. But the path to that perfect energy source demands innovations we can implement today.

Enter TAE Power Solutions. Our revolutionary technologies were originally developed to bridge the gap between the amount of power needed to run a TAE fusion research reactor and what was supplied by the local power grid.

With no sufficient solution available in the market, TAE created a first-of-its-kind energy storage and power delivery system. That innovation has unlocked a complete clean energy ecosystem, including more affordable and efficient storage, ultrafast charging capabilities, electric vehicle powertrains, peak shaving, buffering, and second life of batteries. TAE Power Solutions is now adapting the same technology invented to power our fusion technology for your car, home, or business - accelerating the transition to an electrified world.

During the period, the group has continued to develop its mobility team and several group functions, supporting the global TPS family. With the global group focusing on the mobility and stationary sectors, we have an unparalleled opportunity to succeed in two of the fastest growing markets. The UK group has seen the team continue to develop its innovative ACi technology. ACi unlocks the true potential of the battery with the ability to balance thermal loads and actively monitor State of Charge (SOC) and State of Health (SOH) for precise control of each module in the pack. This unique approach enables systems that are faster charging, have stronger sustained power, and are longer lasting to ensure EVs can go the distance without range anxiety.

The business is continuing to focus on maximising its commercial potential, operationalise the business and create a platform for long term sustainable growth.

During the financial period, the group divested its non-core operations, with a customer acquiring the wiring harness element of the group in June 2024. This allows the group to continue its focus on our core ACi technology.

In November 2024, the group completed an internal restructure, which saw the UK headcount reduce to 75 employees as we look to right-size the business and its operations to maximise potential and reduce ongoing fixed costs.

MISSION
Lead the world in the development of power management technologies. We leverage our nuclear fusion DNA to create solutions that move the world toward sustainable energy by accelerating the best energy storage, EV powertrain, and charging products to market.

VISION
A clean, electric future where the world's best power systems run on TAE technologies.

VALUES
We will harness the skill, commitment and knowledge of our staff by investing in their professional development and planning for our future.
We will be recognized as a progressive and valued employer, with staff who are proud to work here.
We will develop a business culture around being EPIC both internally and externally.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
For The Year Ended 25 December 2024

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Directors have assessed the principal risks that face the business now and in the future.

Human Resource Risk
The team are key to the success of the group and we are trying to create an atmosphere and culture that helps to attract and retain talent. We look to continually invest in the team in order to create a place where the team want to achieve exciting things.

Liquidity Risk
The Company continues to manage its financial risk of liquidity, by ensuring it has sufficient cash available to meet the financial needs of the company and its subsidiaries and the parent company has pledged its financial support.

Competitive Risk
A lot of what the group does is confidential and in order to mitigate risk, we do not make public iterations of our technology in order to enable us to maintain a competitive edge over the other players in the market.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
As expected, group turnover has decreased for the period as the company has consciously moved towards a focus on developing its core technology, rather than working on external projects.

Group headcount decreased during period, reflecting the restructure implemented during the year.

TAE POWER SOLUTIONS LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 13481469)

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
For The Year Ended 25 December 2024


The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company and the group for the year ended 25 December 2024.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY
The principal activity of the group in the year under review was that of manufacturing, engineering and consultancy services focussed on low carbon technology and electronic equipment.

DIVIDENDS
No dividends will be distributed for the year ended 25 December 2024.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The group is engaged in a number of internal and external projects to expand the research and development knowledge within the group. During the period we continued to work on the Celeritas project as part of APC18 with an exciting consortium and have been investing significantly in our facilities and team to help deliver clean, electric solutions.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
The group continues to develop its key technologies and look to exploit these in the future. The advancements in mobility electrification is fast moving and requires us to continue to invest in the team and expand our capabilities. We are fully focused on developing our ACi technology and look to commercialise this.

EVENTS SINCE THE END OF THE YEAR
Information relating to events since the end of the year is given in the notes to the financial statements.

DIRECTORS
K Munipella has held office during the whole of the period from 26 December 2023 to the date of this report.

Other changes in directors holding office are as follows:

D G Roberts - resigned 11 January 2024
R Bareket - appointed 11 January 2024

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The group utilises various financial instruments including loans, cash and various items such as trade debtors and trade creditors that arise directly from its operations. The main purpose of these is to raise finance for the group's operations. The existence of these financial instruments exposes the group to a number of financial risks, which are described in more detail in the Strategic Report.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and the group and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
For The Year Ended 25 December 2024


STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the group's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS
The auditors, TC Group, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





K Munipella - Director


1 October 2025

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
TAE POWER SOLUTIONS LIMITED


Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of TAE Power Solutions Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 25 December 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Company Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:
-give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and of the parent company affairs as at 25 December 2024 and of the group's loss for the year then ended;
-have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
TAE POWER SOLUTIONS LIMITED


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the parent company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
TAE POWER SOLUTIONS LIMITED


Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the company and determined that the most significant frameworks which are directly relevant so specific assertions in the financial statements are those that relate to the reporting framework (UK GAAP and the Companies Act 2006) and the relevant tax compliance regulations in the UK.

We understood how the company is complying with those frameworks by making enquiries of management and those responsible for legal and compliance procedures. We corroborated our enquiries through review of board minutes and discussions with those charged with governance.

We assess the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur, by discussion with management from various parts of the business to understand where they considered there was a susceptibility to fraud. We considered the procedures and controls that the company has established to prevent and detect fraud, and how these are monitored by management, and also any enhanced risk factors such as performance targets.

Based on our understanding, we designed our audit procedures to identify any non-compliance with laws and regulations identified in the paragraphs above.

We also performed audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors.

Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For The Year Ended 25 December 2024


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

TAE Power Solutions Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page.

The trading address of TAE Power Solutions Limited is 3900 Parkside, Birmingham, B37 7YG

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and its subsidiary undertakings. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies have been eliminated in full.

Significant judgements and estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Stock provisioning
The company manufactures equipment which is subject to changing customer demands and technological change. As a result it is necessary to consider the recoverability of the cost of stock and the associated provisioning required. Management consider the nature and condition of stock, as well as apply assumptions around expected future demand for the stock, when calculating the level stock provisioning.

Impairment of goodwill
Determining whether the company's investments in subsidiaries and related goodwill have been impaired requires estimations of the investments' values in use. The value in use calculations require the entity to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the investments and suitable discount rates in order to calculate present values.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in excess of net assets acquired, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of ten years.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Patents and licences are being amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of ten years.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Improvements to property - 25% on reducing balance and 10% on cost
Plant and machinery - 25% on reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings - 25% on reducing balance and 20% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 33% on cost and 25% on cost

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Research and development
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.


Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The group operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the group's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Going concern
As at 25 December 2024 the group's liabilities exceeded its assets by £57,959,339. The group is financed by its ultimate parent company, and is dependent upon the continued support of the ultimate parent company and its investors. With this support, at the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources and funding in place to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and pay its liabilities as they fall due.

As at the point of authorising the accounts, and for the foreseeable future, the directors consider the going concern assumption to still be appropriate. However, should continuing funding not be available, the going concern basis would be invalid and the adjustments would have to be made to reduce the value of assets to their realisable amount and to provide for any further liabilities that might arise.

The directors acknowledge that given the currently rapidly changing business and social environment, there are likely to be significant unknown factors which may present themselves. Such factors are considered by the directors to represent a general inherent level of risk in relation to the going concern assumption albeit not quantifiable at this time.

Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Share based payments
The group provides share-based payment arrangements to certain employees.
Equity-settled arrangements are measured at fair value (excluding the effect on non-market based vesting conditions) at the date of the grant. The fair value is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of shares or options that will vest.

Where equity-settled arrangements are modified, and are of benefit to the employee, the incremental fair value is recognised over the period from the date of modification to date of vesting. Where a modification is not beneficial to the employee there is no change to the charge for share-based payment. Settlements and cancellations are treated as an acceleration of vesting and the unvested amount is recognised immediately in the income statement.

Where share options are forfeited as a result of service or non-market performance conditions not being met during the vesting period, the equity instruments are no longer expected to vest and therefore no cumulative expense is recognised, resulting in a reversal of the previous expense relating to those awards.

Cash-settled share options are measured at fair value at the balance sheet date. The Group recognises a liability at the balance sheet date based on these fair values, taking into account the estimated number of options that will actually vest and the current proportion of the vesting period. Changes in the value of this liability are recognised in the income statement.

The group has estimated trading losses of £49,880,225 (2023: £30,993,031) available for carry forward against future trading profits.

A deferred tax asset of £12,470,056 (2023: £7,748,258) has not been recognised due to the uncertainty over the timing of future taxable profits against which the losses can be offset.

25. SHARE-BASED PAYMENT TRANSACTIONS

The number of equity-settled share based payments has been disclosed in the below table. During the year, the credit for the equity-settled share based payment was £136,992 (2023: charge £737,756).

Some employees of the group have been issued share options in TAE Power Solutions LLC and TAE Technologies Inc. Share options which have been granted have non-market vesting conditions attached, and there are two different classes. Share options are exercisable immediately after the vesting period between 1-6 years following their grant.

The fair value of share options granted is estimated at the date of grant. The grant date for accounting purposes is at various points as the options were issued, as this is when a shared understanding of the terms and conditions of the arrangements was achieved between various parties. When assessing the fair value at the grant date, market information was used from which the parent company is listed in.

The fair value of share options granted is estimated at the date of grant using Black Scholes model.

The following table illustrates the number and weighted average exercise price of, and movements in, share options during the year;
