STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Introduction
 
The Directors present their strategic report on the affairs of WasteNotts (Reclamation) Limited (“the Company”) for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Overview of Group 

The Company operates within a joint venture structure involving Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas, S.A. (“FCC”), a
company incorporated in Spain and listed on the Madrid Stock Exchange, and investment vehicles advised by iCON
Infrastructure LLP (“iCON”).
The Company is a member of a sub-group (“GRP”, "the Group") comprising five UK-based EfW plants (Allington,
Eastcroft, Lincoln, Millerhill at Edinburgh & Midlothian and Greatmoor in Buckinghamshire) and their related SPV and
holding companies. GRP’s immediate parent, FCC Medio Ambiente Reino Unido SLU (“FCC MARU”), holds a 51% stake
in GRP. GRP EFW Investments Limited, a company controlled by investment vehicles advised by iCON Infrastructure LLP
(collectively, “iCON”), holds the remaining 49%. FCC and iCON have combined their expertise and resources to support
the provision of low carbon energy infrastructure and contribute to the UK’s net zero ambitions.
The Board sees the development of major EfW waste infrastructure projects to support sustainable waste management and
strategic long-term partnerships as key to the Group’s future business growth. Coupled with a greater focus on reduction,
reuse and recycling, EfW is an important part of today’s waste hierarchy.

Principal activity

The principal activity of the Company during the year ended 31 December 2025 was the operation and management of the EfW facility at Eastcroft in Nottingham and the provision of steam for district heating and power generation.  

The activities, strategies and risks affecting the Company are inextricably similar to, and dependent on, those of the Group, and consequently it is appropriate that the following narrative applies to the Group in its entirety.  

Business review
 
The Directors consider that the Company’s business performance remained satisfactory during 2025.

Commentary on the Company’s results is set out in the Results, dividends, and key performance indicators section on page 2.
 
The ongoing military conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East continued to contribute to increased political instability and uncertainty across the world, but during the year, there were signs that fuel prices were becoming more stable and inflation was expected to return to lower, pre-conflict levels. Since the year end, conflict involving Iran, the United States and Israeli forces has increased tensions across the Gulf states and pushed fuel prices higher, exacerbating inflationary pressures and
further continuing uncertainty.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Results, dividends and key performance indicators
 
The results for the year ended  31 December 2025 are set out on page 14.  The profit for the financial year ended 31 December 2025 amounted to £3.9million (2024: £4.3million).  The Company paid an interim dividend during the year of £6.5million (2024: £2.0million). The Directors do not recommend the payment of a final dividend (2024: £nil).

For the year ended 31 December 2025, revenue was in line with the prior year, slightly increasing to £18.6million (2024: £18.5million).

Operating profit in 2025 was £5.0million (2024: £5.6million), the slight increase in revenue being offset by higher operating costs.

FCC manages its operations on a divisional basis and information regarding financial and non-financial key performance indicators is included within the FCC annual report.  For this reason, the Company’s Directors believe that the disclosure of further key performance indicators for the Company is not appropriate for an understanding of the development, performance, or position of the business.  Copies of the FCC annual report can be obtained from the address in note 22.

Future developments

The Directors expect the Company to continue to operate in line with its principal activities in future years. 
The Directors consider that the climate agenda has become the climate crisis: public concern for the environment has never been greater, and government focus at all levels – internationally, nationally and locally – has shifted significantly. In particular, the UK has committed to Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050 (2045 in Scotland), and new regulations are taking shape under the Labour government elected in 2024, including the Great British Energy Act, which received Royal Assent in 2025 and the introduction of Simpler Recycling for households in 2026. 
At GRP, we wholeheartedly support the drive to more and better resource efficiency by reducing waste at source wherever possible, reusing what we can and recycling valuable commodities. For waste that cannot be recycled or reused, EfW is currently the best available and best proven technology to recover maximum value from end-of-life waste as an alternative to landfill. In doing so, EfW is contributing to reductions in landfill emissions, while also producing electricity.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
Operating in the UK’s highly regulated waste management market provides a clear legal framework as well as presenting numerous risks and uncertainties to the Group.  The Directors regard the following to be the principal risks and uncertainties affecting the Group and their approach to managing these risks and uncertainties is considered below:

∙Environmental risks: The Group’s environmental risks are tightly controlled under environmental legislation enforced principally by the Environment Agency (“EA”) and Scottish Environment Protection Agency (“SEPA”). Compliance with all environmental legislation pertinent to the Group’s activities is a minimum requirement.  A dedicated in-house team prepare regular reports on environmental compliance at the Group’s sites for the Board’s review.  Environmental objectives are reviewed annually and highlighted within the Group’s Safety Health Environment and Quality (SHEQ) Policy Statement. In addition to this, there are detailed environmental procedures to enable compliance with environmental legislation. 
∙Health and safety: Health and safety is a key issue for the Group due to the nature of its operations, including the use of heavy plant equipment and difficult working conditions.  The Group is continually improving in this area as a result of ongoing consultation with the relevant authorities and the monitoring of best practice initiatives.  Whenever an area is highlighted for improvement, the Group seeks to implement such improvement expeditiously; through bulletins, on-line training courses and tool-box briefings.  The Group’s Incident Review Panel meets as required, at which senior management review significant health and safety incidents that have occurred at Group sites to identify improvements and lessons for the business.  All employees undertake a rigorous health and safety training programme, which is underpinned by the latest UK legislation, detailed policies and procedures.  The Group’s executive management receive regular, detailed reports on health and safety performance affecting the Group’s operations and it employs a dedicated team, led by the Group Safety, Health, Environment and Quality Manager, to monitor and promote high standards.  All employees are expected to recognise their role in achieving acceptable standards of health and safety and to exhibit such understanding through their approach and attitude to work.  
∙Business continuity: The Group, as part of its risk management programme, has developed business continuity planning for its operations.  As part of this planning, the Group has developed a bespoke emergency plan for each operational facility (including the diversion of waste from single or multiple sites in the event of major disruption or disaster affecting a site or region).  The Group’s IT systems are covered by an IT disaster recovery plan, to ensure business continuity.  
∙Legislation: The Group monitors forthcoming and current legislation to ensure full compliance and to anticipate and assess the impact upon its operations, including the significant opportunities it can present.  The waste management industry is subject to extensive government regulation which has a substantial impact on the Group’s business.
∙Economic: The Group has exposure to reduced economic activity. We recognise shorter term uncertainty as a result of the Ukraine and Middle Eastern conflicts, which created inflationary pressures. This could result in higher borrowing costs generally. We have reviewed the potential impacts and consider that we have sufficient mitigations in place. The Group’s strategy is focused on growing through further investment in EfW infrastructure projects.
∙Litigation: The Group could be subject to litigation from time to time.  The outcome of legal action is always uncertain and there is a risk that it may prove more costly and time consuming than expected.  There is also a risk that litigation could be instigated in the future that could materially impact the Group.  In some liability cases legal expenses are covered by the Group’s liability insurance.  This risk is mitigated through continued monitoring and employing an experienced and dedicated in-house legal team.  
∙Competitive risk: The Group operates in highly competitive markets in which competitors’ service offerings may react faster to legislative and market dynamics than those of the Group.  To mitigate this risk, the Group ensures that its asset, cost and capital base is regularly reviewed and flexed to meet changes in customers’ demands and to maximise cash generation.  
∙Employees: The Group does not directly employ any staff. Services are provided by wider FCC Group companies through operations and maintenance (“O&M”) contracts. There is a risk of losing experienced management personnel in those O&M contracts which could have a materially adverse effect on the business.  To manage this risk, the Company engages with the wider FCC Group in respect of succession planning for senior positions within the FCC Group.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Principal risks and uncertainties (continued)

∙Technology: The Group relies on a variety of information technology platforms for the efficient delivery of its services and has therefore employed a structured IT support team, using internal and external resources.  In addition, as there are a wide variety of technologies available to the waste management industry, there is a risk that the technologies employed by the Group might fail to deliver expected performance levels or end products for its customers and so the Group has made a significant investment into establishing a dedicated technical and development team.  This team review and assess the available technologies before any are adopted to ensure they will meet the needs of the business and those of its customers.

Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company is exposed to financial risk through its financial assets and liabilities.  The most important components of financial risk are interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk all of which the Directors consider relevant due to the nature of the Company’s activities and the assets contained within the Company’s balance sheet.

Liquidity and credit risk

The Company’s exposure to credit and liquidity risk is reduced as it is a subsidiary of FCC. Credit risk arises from the risk
of having credit exposures to third parties, including outstanding receivables. The Directors consider credit risk to be
limited as debtor balances included within the Company’s balance sheet consist primarily of external trade receivables and
amounts due from group undertakings. External debtor balances are subject to the Company’s normal credit control
procedures, and amounts due from group undertakings are considered recoverable. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not have sufficient cash resources to meet its commitments.  The Company prepares and reviews cash flow forecasts frequently to ensure that it has sufficient resources to meet its cash flow commitments. 

Going concern

The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Therefore, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual financial statements.

Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in Note 2 to the financial statements.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Section 172 Statement
 
Section 172 of the Companies Act 2006 requires each director to act in the way they consider, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its members as a whole, and in doing so have regard, amongst other matters, to:
 
∙the likely consequences of any decision in the long term;
∙the interests of the Company’s employees;
∙the need to foster the Company’s business relationships with suppliers, customers and others;
∙the impact of the Company’s operations on the community and the environment;
∙the Company’s reputation for high standards of business conduct; and
∙the need to act fairly between members of the Company.

The Board of directors have complied with these requirements. Details of the Board’s decisions over the year to promote long-term success, and how it engaged with stakeholders and considered their interests when making those decisions, can be found throughout this Strategic report and in the Directors’ report. 

Details of our strategy, including future developments, are set out on page 2 of the Strategic report and page 7 of the Directors’ report. The Strategic report highlights performance in the year against that strategy together with future trends and developments. 
 
The Group is also subject to the Code of Ethics issued by its parent company FCC which sets out guidelines for conduct including in relation to corruption and bribery.

The Company’s main stakeholders are its members and external debtors and creditors. Open, constructive dialogue with our key stakeholders is critical to inform the Board’s decisions. Details of how the Group has engaged with its stakeholders are set out on page 9 of the Directors’ report. The Board has overall responsibility for managing relationships with all our stakeholders. Day to day relationships are mainly managed through operations and maintenance contracts with wider FCC Group subsidiary companies. 

Operating within the UK’s highly regulated waste management market, the Board’s regard to the environment as well as the health and safety of all persons entering its sites is of paramount importance. How the Group addresses environmental and health and safety risk is set out on page 3.


This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Statement of corporate governance arrangements

Green Recovery Projects Limited (“GRP”) is a joint venture with Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas, S.A. and iCON Infrastructure LLP. We are a leader in the waste recovery sector, helping to shape the policy landscapes, ensuring that our people, systems, and strategy remain innovative and focused on delivering excellence.  The directors recognise their responsibilities under Section 172 Companies Act 2006 which places them in a position of trust with regards to broader stakeholder interests when carrying out their duties to promote the success of the company.
For the year ended 31 December 2025, under The Companies (Miscellaneous Reporting) Regulations 2018, the Board has applied the Wates Corporate Governance Principles for Large Private Companies published by the Financial Reporting Council in December 2018 (the “Principles”). These Principles provide a framework for ensuring that the Company is well run, well managed and aligned behind a clear purpose.
We are committed to reducing our reliance on fossil fuels in the UK’s fight against climate change and the GRP Board proudly supports the waste industry in driving greater action on carbon emissions for which our Energy from Waste facilities are making an important contribution.  Our vision is to create sustainable carbon-neutral communities, working with local and national partners, with consideration for the environment at every stage.  We understand that our industry is uniquely placed to offer solutions for both energy and climate crisis by offering innovative recycling options and using waste to generate energy to power homes and businesses.  Waste streams that cannot be recycled need to be treated efficiently.  Our belief is that Energy from Waste (EfW) offers a viable solution which avoids landfill and drives waste up the hierarchy.  It shifts waste from disposal into recovery, harnessing heat and energy that would otherwise be lost.
Principle 1 – Purpose and Leadership
As one of the UK’s most trusted resource and waste management businesses, we are a modern progressive company and pride ourselves on innovation and being part of a huge shift in attitudes and changing operations.  
We are realistic about materials that cannot be recycled, and it is our firm belief that recovering the energy from that waste to utilise as heat or for conversion into electricity is the best option. “Net Zero” has taken front of stage, and we are proud to support the industry in driving greater action on carbon emissions. The heat and electricity generated by our facilities replaces the need for fossil fuels and imported energy, while providing a safe and sustainable disposal route for non-recyclable waste. 
Our commitment to net zero remains a driving force behind our investment decisions. In 2025 we published our first Greenhouse Gas Report.
We have had a major shift in emphasis in our business strategy, and as one of the few proven alternatives to landfill, general waste can be sent to an EfW facility to generate steam from burning the waste and turning it into electricity that is then used to heat nearby homes and businesses. The burning of waste and turning it into energy also greatly reduces the reliance of fossil fuels to supply energy needs to nearby homes and businesses. The waste that is sent to our EfW facilities is treated in a highly regulated environment with emissions continually monitored and regularly checked by the Environment Regulator to ensure that they are in line with required standards.
Our aim is to recycle as much as we can, but extracting value in the form of energy from the waste that we cannot recycle is also an important part of our approach to waste management.  The waste that cannot be recycled can be used either as part of fuel for our network of modern EfW’s, or can be compressed and baled, to create Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF), which is also used to power EfW facilities.
People remain at the heart of our success. We are committed to attracting new talent, developing skills, and creating opportunities for colleagues to grow their careers with us.  Across all our activities, our focus is clear: delivering responsible, value-driven waste and resource management that benefits our customers, our communities, and the environment.
As a waste management and resource company, our priority is to ensure responsible value-driven waste management, but as a socially aware business, we strive to play a positive role in communities, tackle issues around carbon and place people at the heart of our business.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Statement of corporate governance arrangements (continued)
Principle 2 – Board Composition
The Board is collectively responsible for promoting the long-term success of our business. GRP has seven directors, comprising of the Chief Executive Officer, Finance Director and five executive directors. 
The directors are made up of four from FCC and three from iCON, enabling an effective composition of the Board, creating clear accountabilities as well as ensuring that it fulfils the strategic needs of the company.
The Board receives monthly updates from each EfW and monthly business review meetings also provide an overview both in terms of performance and strategy, as well as issues relating to operations, development, and wider stakeholder matters.
Principle 3 – Directors Responsibilities
The Board are committed to reducing our reliance on fossil fuels in the UK’s fight against climate change. The Board have placed the recovery of energy from waste at the heart of the strategy of GRP.
The Board has established and maintained effective corporate governance with reference to the Group’s four values:
 
∙Environmental commitment: We ensure that what we do is environmentally and socially responsible.  
∙Forward thinking: Embrace change and prepare for the future.
∙People focus: Value, reward and motivate our team.
∙Doing the right thing: Secure our future by being better at what we do.

We have and continue to work on creating our own special culture, positive ways of working and expectations of how staff behave that set us apart from our competitors. 
 
Keeping ourselves, our customers and our visitors safe is at the heart of our business values, and the Directors at GRP never lose sight of the potential hazards that exist in the workplace.  In 2025 three GRP plants were awarded British Safety Council Swords of Honour for Occupational Health & Safety.  These were at the Millerhill, Greatmoor and Allington Energy from Waste facilities.  This was in addition to the prestigious Power and Utilities Sector Award recognising excellence in health & safety, environmental management and wellbeing. Our Safety Culture Survey confirmed that we maintain a strong and positive safety culture, performing above the wider industry benchmark.
The Code of Ethics and Conduct suite provides practical insight into the values shared across the Group and enables a more robust culture of compliance and supporting the creation of long-term value for our projects.  Supported by our Spanish parent company, the Compliance Committee regularly review our governance protocol and continually seek to improve our Policies and Procedures. Through training and expert guidance, the Committee oversee the Stewardship of the Group, ensuring the highest standards are always maintained. The Code of Ethics and Conduct was reviewed in 2024, and adopted by the Board in 2025.
Principle 4 – Opportunity & Risk
Physical growth is only one measure of success, and through our group ESG report we have demonstrated our progress and commitment to innovating, delivering and crucially, monitoring risks and opportunities across our core activities and into the communities we serve.  As a market leader in the delivery of resource and waste management services, it is from this platform that we look ahead to the future.
We maintain separate Business Risk and Opportunities Registers to ensure risks are properly identified and that necessary steps are taken to mitigate identified issues at the right level.  Risk and opportunity management remains a central and integral part of GRP’s strategic management process, providing a platform to ensure that the risks and opportunities attached to the business form part of the activities in achieving GRP’s strategic goals. GRP undertake a number of waste management activities that are exposed to a range of socio-economic settings and regulatory frameworks, meaning it is exposed to risks as a direct result of its operational activities, as well as those associated within the wider waste industry.

Statement of corporate governance arrangements (continued)

Principle 5 – Remuneration
GRP does not remunerate any members of the Board and the Company is not recharged for their services. The remuneration of the FCC representative Board members is controlled by the wider FCC Group of companies and the remuneration of the iCON representative Board members is undertaken by iCON. The Company and Group do not have any further employees.
Principle 6 – Stakeholders
In fulfilling their duties, the directors are committed to promoting accountability and transparency with all stakeholders.  In addition to this, fostering effective stakeholder relationships and meaningful engagement, having regard to the long term consequences of their decisions.  
We wish to build honest and enduring relationships and seek to work with others who share our ethics in compliance, and our commitments to the safety and wellbeing of our employees. This also helps us overcome current challenges and understand future requirements, provide advice and develop innovative and cohesive solutions that meet these future challenges by using both our local and industry knowledge.
All our stakeholders are key to our business success, and the Board is committed to promoting accountability and transparency with all stakeholders.  Good governance is essential to fostering effective stakeholder relationships and meaningful engagement. We wish to build honest and enduring relationships, and seek to work with others, who share our ethics in compliance.
The impact of the Company’s operations on the environment and local communities is a key consideration for the Board.  Through targeted community investment, reuse and recycling initiatives, environmental stewardship and educational programs, the Company seeks to deliver positive social and environmental outcomes while supporting the transition to a circular economy.  
The Group operates five EfWs, four of which have visitor centres.  Stakeholders are at the forefront of our business and liaising with trade customers and local authorities is fundamental to ensuring that we understand their needs and continue to deliver the services that they require.  Engagement with regulatory bodies via industry organisations such as ESA and WISH, is critical to ensure that we manage the risks set out in the Strategic Report and remain compliant with applicable laws and regulations.
At GRP, we believe that by maintaining high standards of business conduct, open communication and responsible stakeholder engagement, we support the long-term success and sustainability of the Company and deliver value for shareholders while balancing the needs of all stakeholders.

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 101 ‘Reduced Disclosure Framework’. 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 then apply them consistently;

∙make judgments 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 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 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WASTENOTTS (RECLAMATION) LIMITED
 

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of WasteNotts (Reclamation) Limited for the year ended 31 December 2025 which comprise the Statement of comprehensive income, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of changes in equity and the related notes 1 to 22, including material accounting policy information. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards including FRS 101 “Reduced Disclosure Framework’’ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:  
∙give a true and fair view of the company’s affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of its 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 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 the period ending 31 May 2027 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.  However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this statement is not a guarantee as to the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

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 this 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 the other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WASTENOTTS (RECLAMATION) LIMITED
 

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 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 company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or 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 10, 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 these financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WASTENOTTS (RECLAMATION) LIMITED
 

Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud 
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect irregularities, including fraud. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both those charged with governance of the entity and management. 

∙We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the company and determined that the most significant are those that relate to the reporting framework including FRS 101 and the relevant direct and indirect tax compliance regulations in the UK. In addition, the Company has to comply with laws and regulations relating to its operations, including health and safety and General Data Protection Regulations (‘GDPR’).
∙We understood how WasteNotts (Reclamation) Limited is complying with those frameworks by making enquiries of management to understand how the company maintains and communicates its policies and procedures in these areas. We corroborated this by reviewing supporting documentation to validate that the company has a process for monitoring legal requirements and has a process for reporting matters of non-compliance and taking appropriate action.
∙We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by considering the risk of management override. We tested manual journals on areas involving significant estimation and judgement, which were identified through our data analytics techniques based on risk criteria tailored to identify journals most susceptible to fraud. 
∙Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify noncompliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures involved enquiry of management, review of Board minutes and journal entry testing as set out above. We also considered the results of our substantive procedures on other areas of the audit that may indicate non-compliance with such laws and regulations.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at https://www.frc.org.uk /auditorsresponsibilities.  This description forms part of our auditor’s 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 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 STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

1.


General information

 WasteNotts (Reclamation) Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in the United Kingdom under the Companies Act 2006, registered in England and Wales.  The address of the registered office is given on the company information page before the contents.  The nature of the Company’s operations and its principal activities are set out in the Strategic report.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The principal accounting policies are summarised below.  They have all been applied consistently throughout the year and to the preceding year.

General information and basis of accounting 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 101 ‘Reduced Disclosure Framework’ (“FRS 101”) issued by the Financial Reporting Council.

The functional and presentational currency of WasteNotts (Reclamation) Limited is considered to be pounds sterling because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. 

The Company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions under FRS 101:
1.The requirements of IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures
2.The requirements of paragraphs 91 to 99 of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement
3.The requirement in paragraph 38 of IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements to present comparative information in respect of:
4.paragraph 79(a)(iv) of IAS 1;
5.paragraph 73(e) of IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment;
6.The requirements of paragraphs 10(d), 10(f), 16, 38A, 38B, 38C, 38D, 40A, 40B, 40C, 40D, 111 and 134 to 136 of IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements
7.The requirements of IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows
8.The requirements of paragraphs 30 and 31 of IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors
9.The requirements of paragraph 17 of IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures
10.The requirements in IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures to disclose related party transactions entered into between two or more members of a group, provided that any subsidiary which is a party to the transaction is wholly owned by such a member

WASTENOTTS (RECLAMATION) LIMITED
 

 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.2

Going concern

At 31 December 2025 the Company had net assets of £42.6million and net current assets of £1.8million. Current liabilities include £3.5million of deferred income, which relates to income already received, which will be released to the statement of comprehensive income in 2026 in parallel with the related depreciation expense and will not therefore require a cash settlement (see note 14). When this is excluded from the calculation of net current assets, the Company has a strong current asset position.
 
The directors have reviewed projected cash flows and carefully considered the risks to the Company’s performance and cash flows for the forthcoming period ending 31 May 2027 from the date of signing of the financial statements, and have identified no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
 
For these reasons, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and financial statements.

 
2.3

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash-in-hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short term investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.  Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the balance sheet at cost.   

  
2.4

Impairment of assets

Assets, other than those measured at fair value, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in comprehensive income as described below.

Non-financial assets
An asset is impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after initial recognition, the estimated recoverable value of the asset has been reduced. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. 

Where indicators exist for a decrease in impairment loss, the prior impairment loss is tested to determine reversal. An impairment loss is reversed on an individual impaired asset to the extent that the revised recoverable value does not lead to a revised carrying amount higher than the carrying value had no impairment been recognised. Where a reversal of impairment occurs in respect of a cash generating unit (CGU), the reversal is applied to the assets of the CGU on a pro-rata basis.
 
Financial assets
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of an impairment is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

For financial assets carried at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the best estimate of the amount that would be received for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date.

Where indicators exist for a decrease in impairment loss, and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the prior impairment loss is tested to determine reversal. An impairment loss is reversed on an individual impaired financial asset to the extent that the revised recoverable value does not lead to a revised carrying amount higher than the carrying value had no impairment been recognised.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.5

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition they are measured at amortised cost less any allowance for doubtful debts.  Trade receivables, which generally have 30-60 day terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts.  An estimate for impairment is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.  Bad debts are written off when identified.

 
2.6

Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables, excluding derivative liabilities are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortised cost less any impairment losses.  

 
2.7

Taxation

Revenue, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of sales tax except:
•where the sales tax incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation    authority, in which case the sales tax is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of    the expense item as applicable; and
• receivables and payables are stated with the amount of sales tax included.  

The net amount of sales tax recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of debtors or creditors in the balance sheet.  Tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable surplus for the year using average tax rates in place during the financial year, and any adjustments in respect of previous periods.  Income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the income statement.

Deferred income tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. 

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised.  

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.  

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

 
2.8

Revenue

Revenue, including landfill tax, is stated net of VAT and trade discounts and is recognised when the significant risks and rewards are considered to have been transferred to the buyer. Revenue from the supply of services represents the value of services provided under contracts to the extent that there is a right to consideration and is recorded at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is recognised in respect of waste disposal services when the waste has been received and disposed of.  Where payments are received from customers in advance of services provided, the amounts are recorded as deferred income and included as part of creditors due within one year.

2.Accounting policies (continued)

  
2.9

Employee benefits

Following the reorganisation in July 2020, staff costs are no longer recharged directly to the Company, but form part of a wider management services agreement.

Until the reorganisation, certain employees of the Company were members of a pension scheme operated by the FCC Group providing benefits based on final pensionable pay.  The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Company. The Company was unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis and therefore, as required by IAS 19, accounted for the scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme. As a result, the amount charged to the statement of comprehensive income represented the contributions payable to the scheme in respect of the accounting year.

Until the reorganisation, the Company also participated in a defined contribution scheme on behalf of its eligible employees.  Contributions to the scheme were charged to the statement of comprehensive income for the year in which they are payable. Differences between contributions payable in the year and contributions actually paid were shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.

 
2.10

Leases

The Company as lessee

The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of the contract. The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low value assets (such as tablets and personal computers, small items of office furniture and telephones). For these leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed. 

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate.   

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise:
∙Fixed lease payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;
∙Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date;
∙The amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
∙The exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; and
∙Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate the lease.

The lease liability is presented as a separate line in the balance sheet.
The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the effective interest method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

The Company remeasures the lease liability (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset) whenever:
∙The lease term has changed or there is a significant event or change in circumstances resulting in a change in the assessment of exercise of a purchase option, in which case the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate.
∙The lease payments change due to changes in an index or rate or a change in expected payment under a guaranteed residual value, in which cases the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using an unchanged discount rate (unless the lease payments change is due to a change in a floating interest rate, in which case a revised discount rate is used).

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.Accounting policies (continued)


2.10
Leases (continued)

∙A lease contract is modified, and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease, in which case the lease liability is remeasured based on the lease term of the modified lease by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate at the effective date of the modification.

The Company did not make any such adjustments during the periods presented.

The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement day, less any lease incentives received and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Whenever the Company incurs an obligation for costs to dismantle and remove a leased asset, restore the site on which it is located or restore the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, a provision is recognised and measured under IAS 37. To the extent that the costs relate to a right-of-use asset, the costs are included in the related right-of-use asset, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. If a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Company expects to exercise a purchase option, the related right-of-use asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset. The depreciation starts at the commencement date of the lease.

The right-of-use assets are presented within the property, plant, and equipment line in the balance sheet.

The Company applies IAS 36 to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and accounts for any identified impairment loss as described in the ‘Property, Plant and Equipment’ policy.
 
Variable rents that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and the right-of-use asset. The related payments are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs and are included in the line ‘Other operating expenses’ in profit or loss.

As a practical expedient, IFRS 16 permits a lessee not to separate non-lease components, and instead account for any lease and associated non-lease components as a single arrangement. The Company has not used this practical expedient. For contracts that contain a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.

 
2.11

Tangible fixed assets

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment.  Depreciation is provided on all tangible assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life, as follows:

Freehold buildings
-
over 25 to 30 years
Right-of-use-assets
-
over the shorter period of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset
Plant and machinery
-
over 3 to 20 years

Residual value represents the estimated amount which would currently be obtained from disposal of an asset, after deducting estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life.

Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, which are described in note 2, the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

There are no areas of significant judgement or specific estimates or assumptions relevant to the Company.

Revenue

All revenue was generated in the United Kingdom principally from the operation and management of the EfW facility at Eastcroft in Nottingham and the provision of steam for district heating and power generation.
