Enlarged Solar PV supplier agreement, Loan Agreement and Grant of Warrants

eEnergy (AIM: EAAS), the net zero energy services provider, is pleased to announce its significant solar PV agreement, announced on 1 September 2025 has been expanded from 47 schools to potentially up to 82 schools across East and West Midlands and parts of London. The scope of the work has also been expanded to include LED, EV and battery installations as well as solar PV as part of the Great British Energy Solar Partnership ("GBESP"). The final designs and mix of work within the various installations at each site are yet to be finalised.

To meet the rapid deployment and completion deadline for the end of March 2026, the Company has today entered into an unsecured loan facility of £1.5 million ("Loan Agreement") with Harwood Holdco Limited ("Harwood"). Furthermore, and in connection with this Loan Agreement, the Company has, pursuant to a warrant instrument dated 12 November 2025 (the "Warrant Instrument"), granted a total of 8,653,846 five-year warrants to subscribe for new ordinary shares of 0.3 pence each in the capital of the Company to Harwood.

Background to the Loan Agreement

On 1 September 2025, the Group announced that eEnergy had been selected as the preferred supplier for the Great British Energy Solar Partnership ("GBESP") Midlands Lot 1, to deliver eEnergy's rooftop solar PV solution to up to 47 schools in the East and West Midlands ("the Programme") to be managed by Mace Consult Limited ("Mace") who is leading a consortium comprising Mott Macdonald, RAFT, SOS-UK, Inspired Efficiency, Nexus, Energy Sparks, and Building Spatial Intelligence.

Since this announcement, the Company has been conducting structural surveys of the selected school sites and submitting applications for the necessary planning and network operator approvals ahead of the solar PV installation work at each site. The Programme is progressing well, and the Company has since been awarded an additional 35 schools increasing the total 82 schools. The Programme delivery timeline remains for completion by the end of March 2026, and, as such, the majority of the potential revenue will be recognised in FY26.

Installations under the Programme are expected to commence in November 2025. As installations commence and scale, there will be an associated working capital demand on the Company's cash flow. The agreed customer payment terms for work conducted under the Programme are longer than the Company's usual payment term which increases the short-term working capital requirements for the Company.

Current Trading

The Company is trading well and subject to no significant adverse weather in the final two months which could potentially delay the solar PV installations, remains on track to deliver Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA in line with market expectations. The order book for work to be delivered in FY2026 is already at a record level which positions the Company for further profitable growth in FY2026.

Details of the Loan Agreement

  • £1.5 million as principal ("Loan");
  • The Loan is unsecured;
  • Repayable on or before 12 November 2026 with an option to extend for a further 6 months to 12 May 2027 with a second 6 month extension option to 12 November 2027 with the agreement of Harwood; and
  • Interest will be accrued from the date monies are drawn down under the Loan Agreement at a rate of 10 per cent. per annum, (increasing by 2.5% on each extension option) repayable at the end of the term or on prepayment of the Loan.

Details of the Warrant Instrument

  • The Company has agreed to grant warrants over 8,653,846 ordinary shares of 0.3 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to Harwood at a strike price of 5.2 pence per Ordinary Share (the "Warrants);
  • The Warrants will be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time from today until 12 November 2030 (the "Subscription Period");
  • In the event that the Company raises funds by way of an equity financing round where Ordinary Shares are issued in exchange for cash at a price per Ordinary Share of less than £0.052, , the strike price will be amended to reflect the issue price per Ordinary Share, provided that this shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, apply to any funds raised from (a) any subscription monies for the Warrant Shares pursuant to this Instrument; or (b) any Ordinary Shares issued on the exercise of any option granted to an employee, officer or consultant of the Company;
  • Any Warrants that remain unexercised at the end of the Subscription Period shall lapse and terminate immediately on such expiry without further notice and shall be of no further force or effect;
  • The Warrants themselves will not be admitted to trading on AIM or on any other stock exchange; and
  • Upon exercise of the Warrants, the underlying Ordinary Shares shall be issued within 10 Business Days and the Company will, not later than 3 Business Days after the issue of such Ordinary Shares, apply for the admission of such Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM and shall use its reasonable endeavours to procure such admission.

Harvey Sinclair, CEO of eEnergy, commented:

"We are very pleased to announce this +50% increase in the number of potential schools for our significant solar PV project under the GBESP. Since being awarded the preferred supplier in September, we have made excellent progress evaluating the selected schools and remain on track to start the first installations this month.

Given the rapid deployment and upsized scope for this project we have entered into a short term £1.5m working capital facility with Harwood to ensure we have sufficient liquidity to remain flexible for other tenders in the market."

Related Party Transaction

Harwood Holdco Limited and Harwood Capital LLP ("Harwood Capital") are both subsidiary companies of Harwood Capital Management Limited. Harwood Capital, who hold more than 10 per cent. of the existing issued share capital of the Company is classified as a related party under the AIM Rules for Companies ("AIM Rules") and Harwood's participation in the Loan Agreement, and the grant by the Company of the Warrants to Harwood, constitutes a related party transaction pursuant to Rule 13 of the AIM Rules. Accordingly, the Company's directors, all of whom are independent Directors for the purpose of the above related party transaction, consider, having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser, Strand Hanson Limited, that the terms of the Harwood's participation in the Loan Agreement and the grant by the Company of the Warrants to Harwood, are both fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
