- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the Company or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the Company's financial position means that this is realistic. They have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements ("the going concern period").”
Significant events
- “At 31 December 2024, the Company had net assets of £257 million (2023: net assets of £270 million). The increase in net assets is attributable to the profit recognised during the year offset by the payment of an interim dividend of £220 million.”
- “In the industry as a whole, electricity consumption in England, Scotland and Wales during the year was 272 billion kWh compared to 263 billion kWh in the prior year, an increase of 3%. Gas consumption (excluding power stations) was 432 billion kWh in 2024 compared with 420 billion kWh in 2023, an increase of 3%.”
- “The Company's turnover during the year was £4.9 billion (2023: £6.6 billion), a decrease of 26% compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in commodity prices and lower customer numbers in line with the strategic direction of the Company to reduce the commodity volumes traded.”
- “The Company's gross profit during the year was £492 million (2023: £465 million), an increase of £27 million compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by the impact in the prior year of the implementation of the industry wide Targeted Charging Review.”
- “During the year, the Company made a profit after tax of £208 million (2023: profit after tax of £128 million). The increase is due to the reasons outlined above and an increase in interest receivable.”
- “In the I&C sector during 2024, the Company sold 18.2 TWh (2023: 21.0 TWh) of electricity and 4.8 TWh (2023: 7.7 TWh) of gas.”
