85,827349,77785,827349,777Revenue is mainly attributable to the principal activity of highways management and maintenance. All revenue arises solely in the UK.The value of revenue recognised in the current year in respect of performance obligations satisfied in prior years was £— (2024 -£48,000,000).117,000330,867117,000330,867Intangible assets amortisation was recorded as cost of sales in the income statement.The intangible asset on development costs arose in respect of the rights to receive third party revenue forming part of a 25-year contract and was being amortised over the remaining term before being fully impaired in full at 31 December, 2024.The Company leases properties. The average lease term is 16 years. The Company’s leasing arrangements do not have any variable payment mechanisms and no residual values have been ascribed to the leases.  The Company has not entered into any sale or leaseback type of transaction.The Company operates a large number of contracts where the payment terms and conditions vary between those contracts.  There will also be contracts starting and completing in any financial year.  Significant changes in amounts recoverable on contracts and deferred income arise in the reporting period, but no single contract is individually significant enough to explain year on year changes in the balance sheet amounts reported.The contract loss and claims provision represent settlement agreements and estimated future losses arising from disputes and contract obligations.  Future loss provisions of £45,773,000 are held at 31 December, 2024.  Further information in relation to individual contracts has not been disclosed due to the commercial sensitivity of these matters.  The total provision also included provision made in prior years relating to the discounted settlement payments on the agreed exit from the Birmingham City Council Highways PFI Contract with £25,000,000 million remaining at 31 December, 2023, which was fully settled in January 2023.  The contract loss provision will be utilised over a period of up to fifteen years.  Contract loss provisions have been discounted at a rate of 3% per annum (2023: 3%).The hand back provision arises in respect of obligations arising on contracts where there is a contractual requirement to deliver assets to customers before the end of a contract with £6.4 million expected to be utilised within one year and the balance utilised over a period of up to eight years.Deferred tax assets have been recognised on trading losses carried forward to the extent that those losses are anticipated to be utilised via generation of future profits as based on the projections of the Amey Group over a period of up to three years.On 10 June 2021, Finance Act 2021 gained Royal Assent and included provision for the main rate of UK corporation tax to increase to 25% on 1 April 2023. All deferred tax assets have been measured at a rate of 25% (2024- 25.0%The Company operates a number of defined contribution pension schemes for the benefit of employees and the Directors. Trustees or product providers administer the assets of the funded schemes in funds independent from those of the Company. Pension costs in respect of schemes offering defined benefits are assessed in accordance with the advice of independent, qualified actuaries. External professional pension administrators normally conduct the administration of these schemes. The Company sponsors a number of defined benefit pension schemes, offering benefits based on an employee’s final salary.  The assets for these schemes are held in separate, trustee administered funds.  The principal defined benefit schemes are as follows:•West Yorkshire Pension Fund, the Company has a liability to this scheme for former eligible Wakefield Council employees who transferred into the Company under TUPE transfer arrangements•West Midlands Pension Fund, the Company has a liability to this scheme for former eligible Walsall Council employees who transferred into the Company under TUPE transfer arrangementsGiven the similar characteristics of the principal defined benefit schemes, the schemes have been combined in these disclosures for presentational purposes.The current service costs as a percentage of pay are expected to rise significantly as members approach retirement.The Company’s various defined benefit pension schemes are regulated by The Pensions Regulator under the UK regulatory framework.  The corporate Trustees of the schemes are responsible for carrying out triennial funding valuations, with the advice of an independent, qualified actuary, in order to set the contributions due to the schemes.  The Trustees are also responsible for ensuring that the schemes are appropriately managed and that members’ benefit entitlements are secure.  The Trustees’ other duties include administration of scheme benefits and investment of scheme assets (subject to appropriate consultation with the Group).  The Group works closely with the Trustees to manage the pension schemes but has no representation on the Trustee Boards. No past service costs/credits have been recognised in respect of plan amendments during 2024 or 2023. Both of the schemes are now essentially closed to new members. The Company has determined that it has a right to the refund of surplus on wind-up from each of the principal defined benefit pension schemes and has therefore recognised any balance sheet surpluses that have emerged at the balance sheet date. Where surpluses have been recognised, the Company has also recognised the corresponding withholding tax applicable to that surplus at the anticipated rate of 25%.The Company is also a participating employer in the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS).  The Company accounts for its share of the separately identified assets and liabilities of the LGPS and the Company cannot be held liable for the obligations of other entities that participate in this scheme and as such only makes contributions in respect of its sections.  The Company’s share of the liabilities in these LGPS Funds is immaterial compared to the overall liabilities of the principal defined benefit pension schemes and therefore this has been aggregated with the principal schemes.The latest actuarial funding valuations of the Company’s principal defined benefit schemes have been updated by the actuaries to 31 December, 2024 on a basis consistent with the requirements of IAS 19. In particular, scheme liabilities have been discounted using the rate of return on high quality bonds rather than the expected rate of return on the assets used in the scheme funding valuations.West Yorkshire Pension Fund31 March, 2023West Midlands Pension Fund31 March, 2023The duration of a scheme is an indicator of the weighted-average time until benefit payment will be made. For the schemes in aggregate, the weighted average duration is around 14.0 years reflecting the appropriate split and maturity of the defined benefit obligation between current employees, deferred members and pensioners.The best estimate of the contributions expected to be paid to the defined benefit schemes for the next financial year is £— (2024 -£—) for regular payments and £— (2024 -£—)for additional top-up payments.The assets held by the various schemes do not directly include any of the Company or Group’s own financial instruments, nor any property occupied by, nor any other assets used by the Company or Group.All of the schemes hold a proportion of their assets in liability-matching asset classes in order to either partially or fully hedge for movements in interest rates and inflation. The asset-liability matching strategies are not measured against the accounting position and as such the changes in assets to market movements may not match the movement in accounting liability.The key risks impacting the Company’s pension schemes are set out below:Investment risk: The Schemes’ accounting liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to the yield available on high-quality corporate bonds as required by the standard.  If the Schemes’ assets underperform this yield, this will cause a deficit to emerge in the Schemes over time.  The Schemes hold growth assets, such as equities, property and hedge funds.  These asset classes are expected to outperform corporate bonds over the long-term but are more volatile and generate risk for the Schemes in the short-term.  However, the Schemes hold a diversified portfolio of assets to minimise this risk.  The Company has ensured that a robust investment management framework is in place to mitigate as much as possible the risks associated with the investment strategy.Changes in bond yields: A decrease in corporate bond yields will increase the value placed on the Schemes’ liabilities.  This will be partially offset by an increase in the value of the Schemes’ holdings in gilts, corporate bonds and insurance policies, which the Schemes hold in order to match some of the movement in their liabilities.  However, some of the assets held to match movements in liabilities are held to match movements in gilt yields.  This will match movement in the accounting liabilities to the extent that the corporate bond yields move alongside gilt yields.  As such the Schemes are exposed to movement in the spread between gilt yield and corporate bond yields.Inflation risk: Many of the Schemes’ benefits are linked to inflation so higher expectations of future inflation leads to a higher value being placed on the liabilities.  However, there are caps on the level of inflationary increases which protect the Schemes in the extent of extreme inflation.  The Schemes each hold assets to match a specified proportion of movements in inflation.  The remainder of the assets are unaffected by (i.e. fixed interest bonds) or loosely correlated with (i.e. equities and property) inflation, meaning that an increase in inflation will also increase the deficit.  The extent to which the Schemes’ liabilities move due to inflation varies on a scheme-by-scheme basis, influenced by the benefits provided by the individual pension schemes.  Liabilities will also increase should actual inflation be higher than expected in the liability valuation.Following the Government’s announcement in November 2020 that RPI would be aligned with CPIH from 2030, the approach for deriving the inflation assumptions was changed.  There is a different approach to pre- and post- 2030 assumptions with a term-dependent approach for deriving the CPI assumption and the Inflation Risk Premium was decreased from 0.4% in 2022 to 0.3% for 2022 and onwards.Life expectancy: The Schemes’ obligations are to provide benefits for the life of the member after retirement and their spouse following the member’s death.  As a result, higher life expectancies will lead to a higher value being placed on the liabilities.  This is particularly relevant where the Schemes have significant inflationary increases, as this results in a higher sensitivity to changes in life expectancy.  The Company notes that this is a risk to which any defined benefit pension scheme is exposed.1 January 202531 December 202531

Statement of Directors ResponsibilitiesAnnual Report and Financial Statements 2025
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report 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), including FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland'.
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 of the profit or loss of the Company for that period. In preparing
these financial statements, the Directors are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures
disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
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 transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud
and other irregularities.

Independent Auditor’s report to the members of Amey Holdings Limited
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Amey Holdings Limited (the ‘company’) for the year ended 31 December 2025
which comprise Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity and 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 FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and the
Republic of Ireland'. 
In our opinion, the financial statements:
give a true and fair view of the state of the company’s affairs as at 31 December 2025  and of its profit for the year then
ended; and
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 “Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial
statements” section of our report. We are independent of the company 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 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 other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our
auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report.  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.
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 course of 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 strategic report and the directors’ report for the financial year for which the financial
statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the strategic report and the directors’ report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Independent Auditor’s report to the members of Amey Holdings Limited
(continued)
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we
have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to
report to you if, in our opinion:
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from
branches not visited by us; or
the 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 directors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 6, 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 is 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 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 company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do
so.
Auditor’s 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 an auditor’s report 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 the financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.
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. 
Based on our understanding of the company and its industry, we considered that non-compliance with the following laws
and regulations might have a material effect on the financial statements: health and safety regulation, anti-money
laundering regulation, the Bribery Act, the Finance Act, climate change regulations on financial reporting, Modern Slavery
Act and environmental laws.
To help us identify instances of non-compliance with these laws and regulations, and in identifying and assessing the risks
of material misstatement in respect to non-compliance, our procedures included, but were not limited to:
Inquiring of management and, where appropriate, those charged with governance, as to whether the company is in
compliance with laws and regulations, and discussing their policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and
regulations;
Inspecting correspondence, if any, with relevant licensing or regulatory authorities;
Communicating identified laws and regulations to the engagement team and remaining alert to any indications of non-
compliance throughout our audit; and
Considering the risk of acts by the company which were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud.
We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the preparation of the financial statements, such
as tax legislation, pension legislation and the Companies Act 2006.
In addition, we evaluated the directors’ and management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the
financial statements, including the risk of management override of controls, and determined that the principal risks related
to: posting manual journal entries to manipulate financial performance, overstatement of assets, understatement of
expenses/liabilities, management bias through judgements and assumptions in significant accounting estimates in particular
in relation to significant one-off or unusual transactions.

Amey Holdings Limited
Independent auditor's reportAnnual Report and Financial Statements 2025
Independent Auditor’s report to the members of Amey Holdings Limited
(continued)
Our audit procedures in relation to fraud included but were not limited to:
Making enquiries of the directors and management on whether they had knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged
fraud;
Gaining an understanding of the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud;
Discussing amongst the engagement team the risks of fraud; and
Addressing the risks of fraud through management override of controls by performing journal entry testing.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the primary responsibility for the prevention and
detection of irregularities including fraud rests with management. As with any audit, there remained a risk of non-detection
of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal
controls.
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 auditor’s report.
Use of the audit 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 an auditor’s report 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 Financial StatementsAnnual Report and Financial Statements 2025
1. General Information
The principal activity of Amey Holdings Limited (the Company) is that of a holding company. The Company is a private
company limited by share capital and is incorporated in the UK (registered in England and Wales). The Company is privately
owned.
The Company Secretary and address of the registered office is as follows:
Sherard Secretariat Services Limited
Chancery Exchange
10 Furnival Street
London
EC4A 1AB
United Kingdom
2. Accounting Policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102, the historical cost convention
and the Companies Act 2006. Amey Holdings Limited meets the definition of a qualifying entity under FRS 102 and has
therefore taken advantage of the disclosure exemptions available to it in respect of its separate financial statements.
Exemptions have been taken in relation to financial instruments, presentation of a cash flow statement, related party
transactions and remuneration of key management personnel.
Basis of consolidation
The Company is exempt from preparing consolidated financial statements under section 400 of the Companies Act 2006 on
the grounds that it is itself a wholly owned subsidiary undertaking of a company registered in England and Wales. These
financial statements therefore, present information about the individual undertaking and not about its group. These financial
statements are separate financial statements.

Amey Holdings Limited
Notes to the Financial StatementsAnnual Report and Financial Statements 2025
2. Accounting Policies (continued)
Going concern
The Company is a subsidiary of Amey UK Limited (the Group) and its financial resources are managed on a group basis.
The going concern assessment of the Company is intrinsically linked to the assessment for the Group as a whole. The
Company has also received written confirmation from its parent undertaking, Amey UK Limited, that it will continue to
provide financial support to the Company for a period of at least twelve months from the date of signing these financial
statements in order to fund day-to-day operations and to meet liabilities to the extent that the Company is unable to do so.
The Group is financed through a mixture of shareholder equity, bank loans, overdrafts and leases. Details of all bank loans,
leases and their maturity are set out in the Amey UK Limited financial statements for 2025, as are details of financial risks.
the RCF’s limit was increased with the addition of ING Bank N.V., London Branch, to the lending group. This amendment
increased the RCF overall limit by £25 million to £150 million and the borrowing limit from £75 million to £100 million. The
RCF is provided by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch, National Westminster Bank PLC, HSBC UK Bank plc and
ING Bank N.V., London Branch acting as lenders and with HSBC UK Bank plc acting as agent.
A Term Loan facility of £280 million extended to the Group’s immediate parent, Project Ardent Bidco Limited, under the
same facility remained unchanged throughout 2025. The facility has a tenor of seven years and is provided by a syndicate
of lenders arranged by Apollo and with HSBC UK Bank plc acting as agent. Security is limited to each of Project Ardent
Bidco Limited, Amey UK Limited and Amey Holdings Limited providing security over their shares in their respective direct
subsidiary and, in the case of Amey Limited, providing security over its shares in certain other Group companies that are
Guarantors under the facilities (being: Amey Community Limited, Amey Defence Services Limited, Amey Defence Services
(Housing) Limited, Amey Fleet Services Limited, Amey OWR Limited and Amey Rail Limited).
On 18 May 2026, an additional Term Loan Facility of £120 million was extended to Project Ardent Bidco Limited. The new
facility has the same tenor as the original term loan facility and is also provided by a syndicate of lenders arranged by Apollo
and with HSBC UK Bank plc acting as agent.
As of 31 December 2025, no borrowings were drawn against the RCF and the Group also held £62.4 million of unrestricted
cash on the Group balance sheet.
Notwithstanding this continuity of available financing, the directors of the Group have reviewed several factors including:
the future business plans of the Group including the current year results and cash flows up to the date of these accounts,
the current forecast for 2026 and the strategic plan for 2027 to 2030;
the availability of core and ancillary financing facilities;
compliance with banking covenants regarding net leverage;
projected drawn positions and headroom available on the core committed financing facilities
the projected future cash flows of the Group comprising:
a Base Case forecast built up from the budget and strategic plan for 2026-30;
a Reasonable Worst Case (‘RWC’) forecast which applies sensitivities against the Base Case;
Reverse stress testing group liquidity resilience against extreme events;
Additional facility draw down by the Group's immediate parent company in May 2026.
The sensitivities applied to the RWC include specific, unbudgeted cash flows in 2026 and cash flow stress cases in 2027
ranging from 60% to 70%. The Group’s cash flow forecasts show that there is sufficient liquidity to enable it to continue
trading should these scenarios materialise. In addition, management has considered significant additional reductions in
headroom due to unforeseen events such as supply shocks, in particular oil shortages, and widespread client defaults,
along with potential mitigations. Inflation is not considered a significant risk to the Group’s liquidity as the majority of its
revenues are index-linked and so are naturally hedged against inflationary pressures.
Reverse stress testing showed that the Group would have sufficient liquidity in all but the most extreme case, where 100%
of local government clients and 15% of central government and agency clients default. The impact of this scenario could be
offset by increased liquidity from mitigating actions and is, in any case, considered an extremely remote possibility.
Furthermore, the Group’s operations and suppliers are primarily in the United Kingdom and the majority of its clients are
government or government-backed and so the Group is not considered to be exposed to vulnerable markets or sectors or
from global geopolitical impacts such as armed conflicts. The Group's financial position is not expected to be significantly
impacted by fluctuating US tariffs on imported goods since it primarily provides services within the UK and any US activities
will remain service focused for the foreseeable future.
The directors of the Group have considered pension risks and sensitivities and reviewed Value at Risk analysis. They
consider the exposure to be adequately mitigated by strong governance, de-risked scheme assets (including insurance
policies), various contingent assets and committed payments for the benefit of the schemes.

Amey Holdings Limited
Notes to the Financial StatementsAnnual Report and Financial Statements 2025
2. Accounting Policies (continued)
Going concern (continued)
The directors of the Group are satisfied the Group has adequate resources to meet its obligations as they fall due for a
period of at least twelve months from the date of approving these financial statements and, for this reason, they continue to
adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Group financial statements.
On the same basis, the Directors of this Company have adopted the going concern basis in preparing these financial
statements.
Other principal accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies
have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Investment in subsidiary undertakings
Investments by the Company in the shares in subsidiary undertakings are stated at cost less accumulated impairment
losses.
Current and deferred income tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change
attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other
comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.
Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amounts in the financial statements and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the company. Deferred income tax is
determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against
deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered
based on current or future taxable profit.
3. Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Key estimates
Impairments of investment in subsidiary undertakings and amounts due from fellow group
undertakings:
Management have assessed the carrying value of investments in subsidiary undertakings and the amounts due from fellow
group undertakings for any change in the level of impairment provision against carrying value.
As per the accounting policy, the investments in subsidiary undertakings are reviewed for indicators of impairment. If there
is such an indication, the recoverable amount of the investment is compared to its carrying value. The recoverable amount
of the investment is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and its value-in-use (VIU). The value-in-use of relevant
groups of cash generating units (CGUs) for impairment assessment purposes is determined using discounted cash flow
projections from the financial plans approved by the Board. These calculations involve the use of estimates including
projected future cashflows and other future events.
Key judgements
Impairments of investment in subsidiary undertakings:
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated
where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly.
Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. Impairment assessment criteria and
assumptions take into account EBITDA, cashflow generation and capital expenditure requirements based on the rolling 5
year forecasts in addition to the expected growth beyond the forecast period and cost of capital. Details of the assessment
are set out in note 8.

4. Employees and Directors
The Company had no direct employees in either 2025 or 2024.
No Directors were remunerated through the Company in either 2025 or 2024.
Details of the remuneration of the Directors, whose services are of a non-executive nature and who are also directors of the
Company's intermediate parent undertaking, Amey UK Limited, are disclosed in that company's financial statements. Their
remuneration is deemed to be wholly attributable to their services to that company.
5. Auditor's remuneration
The auditor's remuneration is borne by Amey Group Services Limited, a fellow subsidiary undertaking of the Company,
and is not recharged. The allocation to the Company of the auditor’s fees, which are attributable solely to the audit of
these financial statements, is £21,000 (2024: £20,000).

7. Taxation (continued)
Pillar Two legislation, reflecting the OECDs Base Erosion Profit Shifting (“BEPS”) framework, seeks to enforce a minimum tax
rate on large and multinational groups in each jurisdiction in which it operates.  This legislation has been enacted or
substantively enacted in the UK, and many other countries, and applies to entities which are part of groups with revenue
exceeding €750 million through the tested period. The Group is within the remit of the rules.
The legislation is effective for the financial year beginning 1 January 2024.  The Group has performed an assessment of the
Group’s potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes.  This assessment is based on most recent information available
regarding the financial performance of the constituent entities of the Group.  Based on the assessment performed, the
Group is expected to fall within the available exceptions and therefore does not expect a potential exposure to Pillar Two
top-up taxes.

Management has reassessed the carrying value of investments during the year. The recoverable amounts are based on fair
value which reflects forecast cash flows as derived from approved budgets and plans for the next five years.  The future
cash flows are based on the completed Budget 2026 and the 2027-2030 Strategic Plan.  Residual values have also been
included which are based on the normalised activity cash flow plus a growth factor.  The growth rate used has been 1.9%
(2024: 1.9%).  The underlying assumptions of these cash flows are based on the existing contract order book,
management’s past experience and on probability ratios for new business generation.  The cash flows have been
discounted using a risk-based discount rate between 12% and 14% (2024: 13% and 15%).  This pre-tax discount rate is a
measure based on the 10-year UK bond rate adjusted for a risk premium to reflect both the increased risk of investments
generally in the sector.
All subsidiary undertakings are incorporated in England and Wales and operate principally in the UK (unless otherwise
indicated). Amey Power Services Limited has a branch in The Republic of Ireland. The Group’s voting rights and the interest
in their equity shares are 100% (unless otherwise indicated). All interests are held through another subsidiary undertaking
with the exception of Amey Limited, which is held directly by the Company.

Balance at 31 December
On 25 July 2018, Amey UK Limited, the Company’s immediate parent company, granted a subordinated loan facility to the
Company for an amount of £60.0 million. It was a perpetual loan with an applicable interest rate of 12-month LIBOR plus 200
basis points which rose to 12-month LIBOR plus 500 basis points if Group Profits Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and
Amortisation (‘EBITDA’) was above a set threshold. The loan had no specified maturity date but could be redeemed by the
Company at any time. The Company also had the power to delay timing of the interest payment at its sole discretion which
cannot be claimed by the lender.
As it was at the Company’s discretion to decide both the repayment of the principal and the possibility of deferring the
payment of interest, the loan did not satisfy the condition to be accounted for as a financial liability since it did not include a
contractual obligation to pay cash or other financial assets to discharge the liability. Accordingly, it was classified as an
equity instrument and recognised as ‘Other equity instrument’. The accrued interest was recognised in reserves and treated
in the same way as dividends.
On 27 March 2024, the Company used the proceeds of the share issue to repay the £60,000,000 subordinated hybrid loan
classed as an Other equity instrument. The hybrid loan facility was cancelled and any interest accounted for on the
subordinated hybrid loan was also cancelled.
