New £40m facility to drive growth in Energy Services

eEnergy has announced (1st March) a new £40m project funding facility, which will support the Group’s public sector customers with their energy transition projects over coming years. It is an innovative arrangement, which will see eEnergy retain an interest in the economics of each completed project, enhancing margins and driving growth in Energy Services revenue.

A brief year-end trading update indicated that trading in the 6-months to Dec ‘23 was impacted by balance sheet constraints (prior to the c.£30m disposal of the Energy Management division). This had already been signalled in January and we update our forecasts accordingly.

The disposal of Energy Management leaves the Group in a strong net cash position and wholly focused on its high growth Energy Services business. Our confidence in growth prospects is strengthened by the new project funding facility. We therefore reiterate our Fair Value/ Share estimate of 13p, before factoring in potential contingent consideration from the Energy Management disposal, which could be material (£8m to £10m on management estimates).
