Strong cash position and controlled cash burn
Cash balance over GBP 83 million at year end; cash burn for the year was just under GBP 20 million; company reports around GBP 45 million of contracted revenue for 2026.
First royalties and manufacturing momentum
Doosan factory reached first production and fulfilled initial capacity orders, generating the company's first royalty revenues late in 2025; Delta producing prototype products and scaling; new manufacturing license agreement signed with Weichai (China) in 2025 and progressing rapidly.
Expanded global partner ecosystem
Broad partner network across regions including Doosan (Korea), Delta (Taiwan), Weichai (China), DENSO (Japan), Shell and Thermax (hydrogen), and a strategic commercial/advisory partnership with Centrica (U.K.) focused on data centers, commercial and industrial customers (multi‑gigawatt opportunity).
Technology leadership and product launch
Single‑stack SOFC platform commercially launched (Capital Markets Day April 15); single cell/stack platform supports both power generation (SOFC) and green hydrogen (SOEC) use cases, providing dual‑use advantage to licensees.
Cost optimization and margin resilience
Completed business restructuring and realignment to an optimized cost base; management expects ~20% cost savings in 2026 versus the 2025 cost base while retaining an asset‑light model and industry‑leading gross margins.
Hydrogen program technical progress and funding
Megawatt‑scale electrolysis with Shell exceeded performance expectations; DENSO produced first hydrogen with JERA and unlocked government funding (~JPY 35 billion, approx. GBP 165 million) to advance SOEC technology; development underway for pressurized systems with Shell and Thermax to improve hydrogen economics.
Large addressable power market
Management estimates a ~22 GW opportunity for SOFC power generation by 2030, split roughly 50% data centers and 50% industrial/commercial; geographic split cited ~25% U.S., ~20% Europe, ~50% Asia; current comparable SOFC unit price referenced around $3,500/kW (market context).
