GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Introduction

The Directors present their Strategic Report for GAHL Finco Limited ("the Parent Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively "the Group") for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Business review

The Group's principal activity during the period under review was the operation of four wind farms.

Key financial and other performance indicators during the year were as follows:

	2025	As restated 2024
	£000	£000

Turnover	31,092	31,135
Operating profit	16,716	17,818
EBITDA	21,660	22,760
Net liabilities	(18,273)	(29,413)

Turnover, operating profit and EBITDA have marginally decreased in the year due to a reduction in energy production and market electricity prices. Nonetheless, the Group has continued to generate sufficient cash to service its liabilities as they fall due in line with the underlying agreements in place.

Principal risks and uncertainties

In the ordinary course of business, the Group is exposed to and manages a variety of risks in relation to its activities. The management of risk is fundamental to the Group and is closely monitored by the Board of Directors who have responsibility for the overall system of internal control and for reviewing its effectiveness.

The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group are set out below.

Competitive risks

The Group is reliant on certain key suppliers for contracts which are subject to periodic competitive tender. Renewal of these contracts is not guaranteed and is based on financial and performance criteria.

Legislative risks

The operation of wind farms requires the Group to comply with regulatory standards. These standards are subject to continuous revision and any new directive may impose additional compliance costs on the Group which would require it to revise its business plan.

Technical risks

The Group is exposed to the technical challenges inherent in the operation of a wind farm which, if not carefully managed, could impact electricity generation. To mitigate this technical risk the Group has employed a team of experienced contractors to monitor wind farm performance and advise on appropriate levels of essential spares.

Revenue market risks

The Group is exposed to the unpredictable nature of wind and changing market prices which has a direct impact on the revenue generated from electricity production and hence profitability. These risks are managed by regularly updating revenue forecast with market price and wind generation projections prepared by reputable consulting companies. The forecasts are also adjusted to reflect the terms of the underlying power purchase agreements.

DIRECTORS' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

The Directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Directors' responsibilities statement

The Directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the consolidated 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 applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and 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 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 for the Group's financial statements and then apply them consistently;

∙make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

∙state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

∙prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group 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 the Group and to 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.

Results and dividends

The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £11,140,000 (2024 as restated - £14,648,000).

No dividends were declared or paid in the current and prior year.

Directors

The Directors who served during the year were:

Ms C Marlow

Mr P A White

Mr M Quatraro

Ms A L Bath (resigned 31 December 2025)

Ms L C Woodhead (appointed 31 December 2025)

Future developments

Management will continue to introduce improvements to electricity generation to ensure the continued profitability of the Group in the long term subject to wind performance, volatility in market energy prices and changes to working capital requirements.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Financial instruments

The Group has established a risk and financial management framework to protect the Group from events that hinder the achievement of the Group's performance objectives. The objective is to limit undue counterparty exposure, ensure sufficient working capital exists and monitor the management of risk at a business unit level. Steps taken by management to achieve this include reviewing asset performance against forecasts to ensure cash flow generation is in line with expectations; monitoring day to day operations to ensure cash inflows are sufficient to cover expected cash outflows; and reviewing financial information on a monthly basis to ensure appropriate financing is in place and available to be deployed as and when required.

The Group's financial instruments are set out in note 17. The principal risks the Group is exposed to in relation to its financial instruments are set out below.

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of a loss arising following a customer failing to meet their contractual obligations. The Group manages credit risk by monitoring outstanding amounts due in the context of agreed credit terms.

Interest rate risk

Interest risk is the risk of fluctuation in the prevailing levels of market rates of interest on the Group's financial position and cash flows. The Group's activities expose it to financial risks and changes in interest rates. The Company uses derivative financial instruments (interest rate swaps) to manage its exposure to interest rate movements on its bank borrowings to finance the operation of its wind farm projects. The Group does not use these derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will fail to meet its financial obligations in a timely and cost effective manner due to mismatches in the maturity profile of assets and liabilities. The Group’s liquidity risk is principally managed using third-party borrowings and and inter-Group loans. Cash flows generated from operations are used to finance these facilities per the contractual provisions in place.

Qualifying third party indemnity provisions

The Directors of the Group are covered by an insurance policy which insures against Directors and Officers claims.

Disclosure of information to auditors

Each of the persons who are Directors at the time when this Directors' Report is approved has confirmed that:

∙so far as the Director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company and the Group's auditors are unaware, and

∙the Director has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a Director in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company and the Group's auditors are aware of that information.

Post balance sheet events

There have been no significant events affecting the Group since the year end.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GAHL FINCO LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of GAHL Finco Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes, 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's affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of the Group's profit 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 United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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 or 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 other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' 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.

GAHL FINCO LIMITED

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GAHL FINCO LIMITED (CONTINUED)

Opinion 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 Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

∙the Group Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

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 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 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 Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 3, 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 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.

GAHL FINCO LIMITED

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GAHL FINCO LIMITED (CONTINUED)

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 an Auditors' 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 these Group 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. We have identified the greatest risk of a material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to relate to the timing and recognition of revenue and the override of controls by management. We have obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the Group and Company operates within including both those that directly have an impact on the financial statements and more widely those for which non-compliance could have a significant impact on the Group and Company’s operations and reputation. The Companies Act 2006, the Renewables Obligation Order 2015 and UK corporation tax are those we have identified in this regard. Auditing standards limit the required procedures as to non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiries of those charged with governance and review of any applicable correspondence.

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

∙Assessing the susceptibility of the Company’s financial statements to material misstatements by obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur;

∙Enquiring of management and those charged with governance as to actual and potential litigation and claims;

∙Identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, by identifying the laws and regulations applicable to the Company through discussions with management to ensure that no breaches have incurred that would have a reputational, operational or financial impact on the Company;

∙Performing 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 performing analytical procedures to identify any significant unusual or unexpected transactions or relationships;

∙Reviewing and challenging assumptions and judgements in respect of the valuation of loan balances;

∙Performing audit work over the risk of timing and recognition of income, including analytical procedures to ensure completeness and substantive procedures to ensure accuracy and occurrence, based on the requirements of accounting standards;

∙Reviewing and challenging assumptions and judgement made by management in their accounting estimates for bias; and

∙Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

Page 8

GAHL FINCO LIMITED

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GAHL FINCO LIMITED (CONTINUED)

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

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 Auditors' Report.

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 an Auditors' 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 STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

1.	General information

GAHL Finco Limited is a private company, limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales, registration number 12351343. The registered office address is 24 Savile Row, London, United Kingdom, W1S 2ES.

2.Accounting policies

2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The financial statements are presented in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Group, and rounded to the nearest £'000 unless otherwise stated.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).

The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Income and Retained Earnings in these financial statements.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

2.2

Compliance with accounting standards

The financial statements have been prepared using FRS 102, the financial reporting standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. There were no material departures from that standard.

2.3

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the merger accounting method, given the Company's subsidiary undertakings were acquired from fellow group undertakings. On acquisition, the Directors opted to use the carrying values in the acquired subsidiaries own financial statements rather than any carrying values in the consolidated financial statements of the fellow parent undertakings from which these subsidiaries were acquired. The resultant difference between the cost of acquiring these subsidiaries and the share capital of these subsidiaries has been recognised as a debit reserve within equity.

GAHL FINCO LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

2.4

Going concern

The Group was profit making in the year but was in a net liability position at the year end. The Company was profit making in the year and in a net asset position at the year end. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which means that the Company and Group can be expected to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. In assessing the appropriateness of the going concern basis of preparation the Directors have taken into account the key risks of the business as well as the Company and Group’s business model and the availability of cash resources.

In preparing this assessment the Directors cite the ability of the Company and Group to generate sufficient cash to meet its liabilities as they fall due. Further, the Directors cite the ongoing support of fellow group companies and the Company’s parent to not call its debt to the detriment of the Company and Group. On this basis the Directors consider it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on going concern basis.

2.5

Revenue

Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the turnover can be reliably measured. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

2.6

Operating leases: the Group as lessee

The fixed element of rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against profits on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

2.7

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

2.8

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

2.9

Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.

Page 15

GAHL FINCO LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

2.10

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and the Group operate and generate income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except that:

∙The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and

∙Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

2.11

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

At each reporting date the Group assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method and reducing balance methods as set out below.

The estimated useful lives range as follows:

Freehold property	-		Not depreciated
Short-term leasehold property	-	21	years on a straight line basis
Wind turbines	-	20	years on a straight line and reducing line basis
Plant and machinery	-	5	years on a straight line basis

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

2.12

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

2.13

Debtors

Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

2.14

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

In the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group's cash management.

2.15

Creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.16

Provisions for liabilities

Provisions are recognised when an event has taken place that gives rise to a legal or constructive obligation, a transfer of economic benefits is probable and a reliable estimate can be made.

Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.

Deferred tax liabilities are also presented within provisions but are measured in accordance with the accounting policy on taxation.

Increases in provisions are generally charged as an expense to profit or loss.

2.17

Financial instruments

The Group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the Group's Balance Sheet when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

2.17

Financial instruments (continued)

Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.

Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.

If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instruments any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after the deduction of all its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other payables, bank loans, other loans and loans due to fellow group companies are initially measured at their transaction price after transaction costs. When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade payables are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade payables are initially recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

Other financial instruments

Derivatives, including forward exchange contracts, futures contracts and interest rate swaps, are not classified as basic financial instruments. These are initially recognised at fair value on the date the derivative contract is entered into, with costs being charged to the profit or loss. They are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in the profit or loss.

Debt instruments that do not meet the conditions as set out in FRS 102 paragraph 11.9 are subsequently measured at fair value through the profit or loss. This recognition and measurement would also apply to financial instruments where the performance is evaluated on a fair value basis as with a documented risk management or investment strategy.

2.17

Financial instruments (continued)

Derecognition of financial instruments

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Group transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Group will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

3.	Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions which affect reported income, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Use of available information and application of judgement are inherent in the formation of estimates, together with past experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results in the future could differ from such estimates.

The following are the Group's key sources of estimation uncertainty:

Decommissioning liabilities

Provision has not been recognised in respect of wind farm site restoration costs on the basis that the Directors have determined the likelihood of a liability arising is remote based on the assumption that the scrap value of the turbine will be sufficient to cover any decommissioning costs and that there is also the potential that the wind farm will be re-energised and the related site lease renewed. If circumstances indicate otherwise, the Group will recognise an appropriate provision.

Bank loans

As set out in note 16, the Group's bank borrowings attract interest at a variable rate based on SONIA, the risk free rate administered by the Bank of England. Bank loans are held at amortised cost which requires the Directors to forecast the expected interest payable over the life of the loan and recognise, in the consolidated statement of income and retained earnings, interest annually at an effective rate. Each year end the Directors update their forecasts and recognise any difference between actual and forecast interest payable as an adjustment to the effective interest expense. Forecasts require an estimation as to future SONIA rates, based on current market data. Actual rates will vary from forecast over the loan lifetime, rendering the effective interest rate calculated an estimate subject to these variations. If interest payable over the life of the loan were to be considerably different to the Directors forecasts there could be a material impact on the carrying value of the bank loans and associated interest payable expense.

Turnover

The whole of the turnover is attributable to the principal activity of the Group.

The Company has entered into an interest rate swap to receive interest at SONIA + 0.28% and pay interest at a fixed rate of 2.31%. The swap is based on a reducing notional amount and matures in December 2028 on the same date as the bank loan.

The instrument is used to hedge the Company's exposure to interest rate movements on the bank loan. The fair value of the interest rate swap at the year end date is an asset of £372,000 (2024: £1,070,000).

During the year a fair value loss of £697,000 (2024: £345,000) was recognised in the statement of income and retained earnings.
