Triple Point Energy Transition plc
("TENT" or the "Company" or, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group")
UNAUDITED RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024
RAPID PROGRESS CONTINUES FOLLOWING ADOPTION OF MANAGED WIND-DOWN STRATEGY
Triple Point Energy Transition plc (ticker: TENT) announces its unaudited results for the six months ended 30 September 2024. In March 2024, Shareholders voted to approve the managed wind-down of the Company and, within the first six months, a majority of the Company's assets have been sold. The sale of the remaining investments is anticipated to complete in Q1 2025.

Unaudited NAV movement
The fall in unaudited NAV for the six-month period to 30 September 2024 is primarily driven by the adjustments to the carrying value of TENT Holdings Limited ("TENT Holdings") to align the valuation as at 30 September 2024 with the anticipated proceeds from the disposal, which is expected to reach a final agreement and complete in the next quarter.
Highlights
· The disposal of a debt facility provided to a subsidiary of Virmati Energy Ltd (trading as Field), to fund a portfolio of four Battery Energy Storage Systems ("BESS") assets ("BESS Portfolio"), at the carrying value on 19 April 2024.
· The repayment and cancellation of TENT Holdings' Revolving Credit Facility ("RCF") on 19 April 2024.
· The refinancing of three Combined Heat and Power ("CHP") loans (the "CHP Portfolio") for a total consideration of £17.5 million (including £3 million of deferred consideration) on 24 June 2024.
· The disposal of the Company's assets to date, including the full repayment of the Innova debt facility, represents 92.0% of carrying value.
· A special dividend of 25 pence per ordinary share was announced on 6 September 2024 and paid on 4 October 2024.
· The Company entered into exclusivity with a potential buyer for TENT Holdings, the owner of the Hydroelectric Portfolio and LED Receivables Finance Facility, with the disposal anticipated to complete in Q1 2025.
Strategic Update
Significant progress has been made since Shareholders voted 99.85% in favour of the wind-down of the Company in March 2024. The majority of the Company's assets have been sold within six months following this vote, reflecting the quality of the Company's portfolio. The remaining assets are anticipated to be sold, in line with previous communications to Shareholders, by the end of the current financial year.
Given the substantial progress made in the managed wind-down, and in order to reduce operating costs, John Roberts has decided to stand down as Chair of the Company with immediate effect. Rosemary Boot will assume the role of Chair and the remaining Directors will continue on the Board until Shareholders have voted in favour of the proposed members' voluntary liquidation and liquidators are appointed.
John Roberts, the Company's outgoing Chair, commented:
"The Board is pleased with the prompt progress made in disposing of the Company's assets following the almost unanimous vote to adopt a managed wind-down strategy, particularly given that the orderly realisation involves selling a diverse range of debt and equity investments in energy transition assets to multiple different parties. Achieving 92% of the carrying value to date is a creditable outcome in an environment of higher base rates, lower forward power price expectations and other sectoral headwinds. The Board is keen to maximise the cash returned to Shareholders as part of the wind-down and has carefully considered the required size and composition of the Board. Given the progress in respect of the disposals to date, and the substantial progress made in respect of the sale of TENT Holdings, we believe that a Board of three Directors is sufficient to oversee the short remaining period prior to the proposed members' voluntary liquidation. Accordingly, I have decided to stand down with immediate effect. It has been a privilege to serve as Chair of TENT and I am confident the last period of the Company's orderly realisation is in good hands."
Rosemary Boot, the Company's incoming Chair, commented:
"On behalf of the Board, Triple Point and our Shareholders, I would like to thank John for his contribution to the Company since IPO in 2020, particularly during the last two years in what has been a challenging time for investment trusts operating in the energy transition sector, with significant macro-economic and political turmoil over that period. We wish John well in his future activities, and I look forward to working with my fellow Directors and Triple Point to achieve the best result possible in respect of the remaining asset disposals, prior to entering into a proposed members' voluntary liquidation."

CHAIR'S STATEMENT
Introduction
12 months ago, the Board decided to recommend an orderly wind-down to deliver value to Shareholders. The orderly wind-down received almost unanimous support from Shareholders who voted at the General Meeting in March 2024. During the six-month period to 30 September 2024, the Company has focused on progressing the asset sales processes, whilst maintaining the performance of its assets.
Orderly wind-down update
Over the course of the six-month period the following assets were disposed of or repaid:
Development financing
The Innova Facility was repaid on 5 April 2024.
BESS Portfolio
In April 2024, following approval by Shareholders, the Group sold the BESS Portfolio loan facility to Triple Point Leasing Limted ("TPLL") for its carrying value. Given the significant increase in base rates since the loan was agreed in March 2022 and the decline in BESS revenues, this was seen as a highly satisfactory outcome for Shareholders. The BESS Portfolio loan facility was one of the first merchant (predominantly uncontracted revenues) BESS loan facilities in the UK and won Energy Storage Deal of the Year award in 2022. Since 2022, we have seen a number of high street bank lenders funding BESS using similar structures. The Group is pleased to have played a part in accelerating the energy transition by pioneering finance to this important asset class.
CHP Portfolio
In June 2024, the loans to Harvest, Glasshouse and Spark Steam (together the "CHP Portfolio") were refinanced by P3P Partners LLP ("P3P") for a total consideration of £17.5 million, comprised of an upfront payment of £14.5 million and three deferred payments of £1 million each. £0.25 million of the first deferred payment was received in September 2024 and the balance of £0.75 million was received in October 2024. The carrying value of the remaining two deferred payments of £1 million each on the 30 June 2025 and 30 September 2026 respectively have been discounted by £0.2 million to take into account the present value of future payments. The receivables have been transferred by TENT Holdings to the Company, and thus the amounts will remain payable to the Company subsequent to the planned disposal of TENT Holdings.
Remaining assets disposal
The Company entered into exclusivity with a preferred bidder in respect of the sale of TENT Holdings, which owns the Hydroelectric Portfolio consisting of nine run of river hydroelectric power assets, together with the remaining LED Receivables Finance Facility. Due diligence is well progressed and the Company believes the disposal will complete in Q1 2025.
Financing
The Group, via its wholly owned subsidiary, TENT Holdings, had a £40 million Revolving Credit Facility ("RCF"), which was fully repaid and cancelled on 19 April 2024.
Financial Results
The unaudited Net Asset Value ("NAV") of the Company at 30 September 2024 was £77.3 million (31 March 2024: £86.7 million), a decrease of 11% since the year end. The decrease in NAV is predominately driven by the fair value decline of £6.6 million during the six-month period. This fair value adjustment is mainly driven by the decrease in the valuation of the Hydroelectric Portfolio, based on the anticipated proceeds expected from the TENT Holdings disposal.
As a result of the £6.6 million reduction in the fair value of the portfolio, TENT recorded a loss, for the period, of £6.7 million (30 September 2023: loss of £1.6 million).
Distributions
During the six months ended 30 September 2024, the Company declared an interim dividend of 1.375 pence per ordinary share on 24 June 2024 and another interim dividend of 1.375 pence per ordinary share on 28 August 2024. The Company also announced a special dividend of 25.00 pence per ordinary share on 6 September 2024, paid on 4 October 2024.
Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG")
Since IPO, and under the previous strategy, the Company adopted an approach to ESG that reflected the importance of sustainability and which sought to add value to the portfolio. As the Company progresses its wind-down, the focus is on continued efficiency and safety of all assets and taking a responsible approach to disposals. The Company is aware of the new Sustainability Disclosure Requirements ("SDR") and labelling rules, and as a result of existing circumstances, does not intend to apply for a label under SDR. The Company has published a statement to explain its position, which can be found on the website.
Post Balance Sheet
On 4 October 2024 the Company paid a special dividend of 25 pence per ordinary share.
On 9 October 2024 the Group received a payment of £0.75 million from P3P being the balance of the first deferred consideration payment due from the CHP Portfolio loan refinancing.
On 2 December 2024, TENT Holdings transferred the CHP Portfolio promissory note to the Company, for the fair value of £1.83 million. This transfer was completed to facilitate the disposal of TENT Holdings Limited.
Board Change
The Board is keen to maximise the cash returned to Shareholders as part of the wind-down and has carefully considered the required size and composition of the Board. Given the progress in respect of the disposals to date, and the substantial progress made in respect of the sale of the TENT Holdings, we believe that a Board of three Directors is sufficient to oversee the short remaining period prior to the proposed members' voluntary liquidation.
Accordingly, I have decided to stand down as Chair of the Company and Rosemary Boot will take over as Chair with immediate effect. Rosemary will remain as Chair of the Audit Committee for the remaining period until the Company enters the proposed members' voluntary liquidation which we believe is acceptable in the circumstances. Furthermore, Anthony White has been appointed as Senior Independent Director. It has been a privilege to serve as Chair of TENT and I am confident that the last period of the Company's orderly realisation is in good hands.

INVESTMENT MANAGER'S REPORT
Managed Wind-down Update
As noted in the Chair's statement, the Company's assets that have been sold and fully repaid to date represent 92% of the carrying value, with the disposal of TENT Holdings anticipated to close in Q1 2025.
Once these remaining assets have been disposed of, the next steps in the wind-down will be, subject to shareholder approval, to proceed with a members' voluntary liquidation. This will include the appointment of liquidators from Evelyn Partners and delisting of, and trading in, the Company's ordinary shares. It is envisaged that the liquidators will seek to make a prompt distribution of capital to investors.
Portfolio Performance
Hydroelectric Portfolio
The Hydroelectric Portfolio exported 7,178 MWh of electricity to the grid in the six-month period. This level of generation was 26.2% above forecast. The good performance is attributable to exceptionally high rainfall in August and the high availability of the schemes throughout the period. There were no unplanned outages affecting production.
LED Portfolio
All income due was received in the period.
CHP Portfolio
The three CHP loans were refinanced in June 2024. During the 2.5 months of ownership in this interim period, no performance reporting was received, consistent with the reporting requirements under the loan agreements.
BESS Portfolio
The loan facility to Field was realised in April 2024, during which time the construction of the BESS assets continued to progress.
Portfolio Valuation
The Investment Manager is responsible for carrying out the fair market valuation of the Group's investments. Portfolio valuations are currently carried out on a bi-annual basis as at 30 September and 31 March each year.
In line with the Group's valuation methodology, the deferred consideration receivable for the CHP Portfolio has been valued on a Discounted Cashflow basis to reflect the time value of money. Given the circumstances of the orderly wind-down and the ongoing disposal processes in respect of TENT Holdings, the valuation method for the remaining investments held at 30 September 2024 has been updated to reflect the anticipated consideration, rather than a Discounted Cashflow Valuation.
The valuation of the portfolio approved by the Directors as at 30 September 2024 is £47.2 million (31 March 2024: £83.4 million). During the period, TENT Holdings made £29.5 million of capital repayments to TENT following the repayment of the Innova Facility and the refinancing or disposal of the Boxed LED Facility, BESS Portfolio loan facility and the CHP Portfolio.
Valuation movements
The valuation movement in the period reflects the change in the valuation of TENT Holdings, which is primarily driven by the change in value of its largest assets, the Hydroelectric Portfolio. The total fair value loss for the period in respect of TENT Holdings was £6.6 million. This fair value adjustment is primarily attributed to a decline in the portfolio's valuation, reflecting the anticipated proceeds from the TENT Holdings disposal.
Financial Review
The Company applies IFRS 10 and qualifies as an investment entity. IFRS 10 requires that investment entities measure investments, including subsidiaries that are themselves investment entities, at fair value except for subsidiaries that provide investment services which are required to be consolidated.
The Company's single, direct subsidiary, TENT Holdings, is the ultimate holding company for all the Company's investments.
It is, itself, an investment entity and is therefore measured at fair value.
NAV
The Company's NAV and investment portfolio valuations are calculated on a bi-annual basis on 31 March and 30 September each year and are prepared by the Investment Manager. The NAV is reviewed and approved by the Board.
The unaudited NAV of the Company at 30 September 2024 was £77.3 million (31 March 2024: £86.7 million), a decrease of 11% since the year end. The decrease in NAV is predominately driven by the fair value decline of £6.6 million during the six-month period. This fair value adjustment is mainly driven by the decrease in the valuation of the Hydroelectric Portfolio.
Operating Results
During the six-month period to 30 September 2024, the Company's unaudited NAV declined by 11% and the Company reported a loss of £6.7 million, primarily due to a £6.6 million reduction in the fair value of the investment portfolio.
Operating Expenses and Ongoing Charges
The operating expenses for the six months ended 30 September 2024 amounted to £0.9 million (30 September 2023: £1 million). The Company's annualised ongoing charges ratio ("OCR") for the period is 1.68% (30 September 2023: 2.19%). The calculation has been performed following the AIC methodology, wherein any one-time expenses have been excluded from the ongoing expenses. The decrease in OCR is due to the decrease in ongoing expenses.
Sustainability and the approach to Environmental, Social and Governance
Triple Point, as Investment Manager, provides a responsible and sustainable approach to investment management.
Sustainability Disclosures
As the Company is progressing with its orderly wind-down, it is only reporting according to regulatory requirements.
The Company is aware of the new SDR and labelling rules and, as a result of existing circumstances, does not intend to apply for a label under SDR. The Company has published a statement to explain this position, which can be found on the website.
Operational quality through ESG analysis and asset optimisation
As the Company is now in active wind-down, the ESG focus applied by the Investment Manager is on continued efficiency and safety of all assets and taking a responsible approach to disposals.
Conclusion
The market for investment trusts continues to be challenging in a high base rate environment. Investment trusts in the energy transition sector, particularly those with lower relative market capitalisations, have been subject to additional challenges, which is why TENT proposed an orderly realisation of the Company to Shareholders a year ago. We note that since TENT's Shareholders' decision, Shareholders of other investment trusts in TENT's peer group have also approved similar proposals. This course of action has seen significant value returned to TENT Shareholders in a timely manner with the majority of the portfolio disposed of, or fully repaid, whilst achieving 92% of the prevailing carrying value. We are confident of concluding the remaining sale in Q1 2025 based on the well progressed discussions with the preferred bidder for TENT Holdings.
We would like to thank TENT's Shareholders for their support since IPO, which enabled investment in the niche areas of the energy transition, such as hydro-electric power. TENT also pioneered new approaches to investing into the energy transition, for example through the award-winning BESS Portfolio loan facility, which has since been replicated by other lenders.
Achieving Net Zero will require many billions of pounds of capital to be mobilised annually in the UK alone. Capital markets have a vital role to play in achieving this through allocating capital to energy transition opportunities, including investment trusts, in the near term.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The principal risks and uncertainties for the Company continue to be those outlined on pages 26-30 of the Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2024 and the Board expects those to remain valid for the remainder of the year.
There are a small and limited number of changes in the risk profile of the Company since the year ended 31 March 2024, predominantly influenced by the fact that post balance sheet events (sale of the CHP Portfolio) had already been factored in. Following the progress made on the sale of the remaining assets, the following changes have been made to the principal risks:
· Sale of assets - realisation - the likelihood has been reduced to moderate, from moderate-to-high, reflecting the progress made with the sale of the remaining assets.
· Volatility of NAV - the likelihood has been reduced to moderate, from moderate-to-high, reflecting the progress made and sale price anticipated for the remaining assets.
· Post-sale liabilities - given the structure and proposed limitations anticipated in the sale contract, the impact and likelihood have both been reduced to low-to-moderate.
· Reliance on the performance of third-party service providers - given the progress made with the managed wind-down, and the reduced dependency on third party services, the impact has been reduced to low-to-moderate, from moderate-to-high.
· Inadequate or inappropriate execution of the wind-down: this risk is for the Company as a whole and includes the proposed delisting and members' voluntary liquidation. The causes for this have been extended to include potential investor activism and consequently the likelihood has been increased to moderate, from low-to-moderate. This becomes the most material risk to the Company.
New Risk: Default risk: The risk of delay or failure to collect deferred consideration, caused by financial strain of underlying counterparty. Given the first deferred payment relating to sale of the CHP Portfolio loans was not completed in line with the agreement, the likelihood has been assessed as moderate and impact as low-moderate.
Emerging risks
There are no new emerging risks that the Board considers relevant at this time.

For the period, the allocation of the investment management fees between revenue and capital have been adjusted to reflect an increased allocation to the capital column. This change was implemented to align with the divestment of assets during the wind-down of the Company, where a greater proportion of the fees relates to capital activities. Additionally, other expenses have been reviewed, and any costs directly associated with the disposal of the Company's investments have been allocated to the capital column.

Notes to the Interim Financial Statements
For the six months ended 30 September 2024
1. General Information
The Company is incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom and registered in England and Wales under number 12693305 pursuant to the Act. The address of its registered office is The Scalpel, 18th Floor, 52 Lime Street, London, EC3M 7AF. The principal place of business is at 1 King William Street, London EC4N 7AF.
The Company is listed on the closed-ended investment funds category of the FCA's Official List and its ordinary shares have been admitted to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange since 28 October 2022. Prior to which, and with effect from IPO, the Company's ordinary shares traded on the Specialist Fund Segment of the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange.
The financial statements comprise only the results of the Company, as its investment in TENT Holdings is included at fair value through profit or loss as detailed in the key accounting policies below.
At the General Meeting on 22 March 2024, the Directors proposed an orderly wind-down of the Company as the best course of action and Shareholders voted in favour of this proposal. This proposal received almost unanimous support from the voting Shareholders. Accordingly, the Company's financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than that of going concern. Except for as disclosed in the following paragraphs, no further adjustments have been made in the Company's financial statements in relation to the Company no longer being a going concern. As at the date of approval of these Interim Financial Statements, there are no liquidity concerns.
The Company aims to achieve its Investment Objective by conducting an orderly realisation of the Group's assets, seeking to balance prompt cash returns to Shareholders with value maximisation, while maintaining an income return as long as the Group owns assets generating sufficient income.
During the implementation of the managed wind-down in accordance with the new investment policy, the Company is not making any new investments. Furthermore, the Company is actively seeking to dispose of its investments and has enlisted the corporate finance advisory expertise of PwC to ensure these transactions are executed proficiently and yield the best possible outcomes for Shareholders. Considering these events, the Company meets the criteria for assets held for sale under IFRS 5. This conclusion has been reached based on the following IFRS 5 criteria:
o The Board is committed to a plan to sell the assets.
o The assets are available for immediate sale.
o An active programme to locate a buyer has been initiated.
o The sale is highly probable within 12 months of classification as held for sale.
o Actions related to the sale plan indicate a low likelihood of significant changes or cancellation.
As a result, the investments held at fair value through profit or loss have been kept as current assets held-for-sale in the financial statements.
2. Basis of Preparation
The interim financial statements included in this report have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The interim financial statements have been prepared under historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
The interim financial statements have also been prepared as far as relevant and applicable to the Company in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Financial Statements of Investment Trust Companies and Venture Capital Trusts ("SORP") issued in April 2021 by the Association of Investment Companies ("AIC").
The interim financial statements are presented in sterling, which is the Company's functional currency and rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated. The accounting policies, significant judgements, and key assumptions are consistent with those used in the latest audited financial statements to 31 March 2024 and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024.
For the period, the allocation of revenue and capital in the Profit & Loss account has been revisited and an adjustment has been reflected in respect of the investment management fee to reflect an increased allocation to the capital column. This change was implemented to align with the divestment of assets during the wind-down of the Company, where a greater proportion of the fee relates to capital activities. Additionally, other expenses have been reviewed, and any costs directly associated with the disposal of the Company's investments has been allocated to the capital column.
The financial information contained in this unaudited Interim Report and Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 September 2024 and the comparative information for the year ended 31 March 2024 does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in sections 435(1) and (2) of the Companies Act 2006. Statutory Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The Auditor reported on those accounts. Its report was unqualified and did not contain a statement s498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006
Basis of Consolidation
The objective of the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary TENT Holdings Limited was to invest, via individual corporate entities for equity investments, or through advancing proceeds to corporate entities for debt investments, in Energy Transition Assets. TENT Holdings typically issued equity and borrowed to finance its investments.
The Directors have concluded that in accordance with IFRS 10, the Company meets the definition of an investment entity having evaluated the criteria that need to be satisfied. Under IFRS 10, investment entities are required to hold subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss rather than consolidate them on a line-by-line basis, meaning TENT Holdings' cash and working capital balances are included in the fair value of the investment rather than in the Company's assets and liabilities. TENT Holdings has one investor which is the Company. However, in substance, TENT Holdings is investing the funds of the investors of the Company on its behalf and is effectively performing investment management services on behalf of many unrelated ultimate beneficiary investors.
Segmental reporting
The Chief Operating Decision Maker (the "CODM") being the Board of Directors, is of the opinion that the Company is engaged in a single segment of business, being investment in Energy Transition Assets.
The Company has no single major customer. The internal financial information used by the CODM on a quarterly basis to allocate resources, assess performance and manage the Company presents the business as a single segment comprising the portfolio of investments in Energy Transition Assets.
Seasonal and cyclical variations
As part of the managed wind-down in accordance with the new investment policy, the Company is no longer making new investments. Historically, the Company's operations were not subject to significant seasonal or cyclical variations, and this remains unchanged during the current reporting period.

7. Net assets per Ordinary share
The basic total net assets per ordinary share is based on the total net assets attributable to equity Shareholders as at 30 September 2024 of £77.25 million (31 March 2024: £86.68 million) and ordinary shares of 100 million in issue at 30 September 2024 (31 March 2024: 100 million).
There is no dilution effect and therefore no difference between the diluted net assets per ordinary share and the basic total net assets per ordinary share.
8. Assets Held-For-Sale
The Company designates its interest in its wholly-owned direct subsidiary as an investment at fair value through profit or loss. The investment continues to be classified as assets held-for-sale following the Company entering an orderly wind-down.
Summary of the Company's valuation is below:
| 30 September 2024 (Unaudited) |
| 31 March 2024 (Audited) |
| £'000 |
| £'000 |
Brought forward investment at fair value through profit or loss | 83,367 | | 90,060 |

Capitalised interest | - | | 790 |
Loan principal repaid | (29,477) | | (4,549) |
Movement in fair value of investments | (6,645) | | (12,163) |
Closing investment at fair value through profit or loss | 47,245 |
| 83,367 |
Loans advanced to TENT Holdings in the period totalled £nil (year to 31 March 2024: £9.2 million). TENT Holdings repaid £29.5 million (31 March 2024: £4.5 million) to the Company during the period from loan repayments received from the CHP Portfolio, BESS Portfolio and Boxed LED Facility, as well as the Innova development facility (31 March 2024: loan repayments received from Hydro and CHP portfolios). TENT Holdings also repaid and cancelled its RCF facility amounting to £25.2 million using these proceeds.
The Company owns five shares in TENT Holdings, representing 100% of issued share capital, allotted for a consideration of £24.8 million. The fair value of the Company's investments in TENT Holdings on 30 September 2024 in both equity and debt is £47.2 million (31 March 2024: £83.4 million).
Capitalised interest represents interest recognised in the income statement but not paid. This is instead added to the loan balance on which interest for future periods is computed. The loan from the Company to TENT Holdings, which enabled TENT Holdings to complete loans to Harvest, Glasshouse and Spark Steam, carried commensurate terms and repayment profiles. All payments from the borrower and capitalised interest were in accordance and in line with the contractual repayments with the respective underlying facility agreements with Harvest, Glasshouse and Spark Steam as agreed at inception.

1 At 30 September 2024 RCF debt was fully repaid (31 March 2024: £25.2 million drawn). The debt balance represents the drawn balance and the arrangement fee which was capitalised and expensed to profit or loss under amortised cost.
Fair Value measurements
The Company accounts for its interest in its wholly owned direct subsidiary, TENT Holdings, as an investment at fair value through profit or loss.
IFRS 13 requires disclosure of fair value measurement by level. The level of fair value hierarchy within the financial assets or financial liabilities is determined on the basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified in their entirety into only one of the following 3 levels:
· | level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
|
· | level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
|
· | level 3 - inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
|
The determination of what constitutes 'observable' requires significant judgement by the Company. Observable data is considered to be market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.
The financial instruments held at fair value are the instruments held by the Group in the SPVs, loan facility receivables and, at 30 September 2024, the CHP deferred consideration, which are fair valued at each reporting date held. The investments have been classified within level 3 as the investments are not traded and contain certain unobservable inputs. The Company's investments in TENT Holdings are also considered to be level 3 assets.
There have been no transfers between levels during the period.
Given the circumstances of the orderly wind-down and the ongoing disposal processes in respect of TENT Holdings, the valuation method for the remaining investments held at 30 September 2024 has been updated to reflect the anticipated consideration, rather than a Discounted Cashflow Valuation. The deferred consideration receivable for the CHP Portfolio has been valued on a discounted cashflow basis to reflect the time value of money.
The CHP deferred considerations is valued at its net present value using a discount rate of 7.65%.
The shareholder loan and equity investments in TENT Holdings are valued as a single asset class at fair value in accordance with IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement.

The Company and Subsidiaries
During the period, the Company advanced loans amounting to £nil (year to 31 March 2024: £9.2 million) to TENT Holdings Limited. These loans were at an interest rate of 7% and were used by TENT Holdings to invest in loans to Innova, BESS Portfolio and Boxed LED Facility. TENT Holdings used loan repayments from the CHP Portfolio, BESS Portfolio and Boxed LED Facilities and the Innova development finance facility to fully repay an amount of £25.2 million under the TENT Holdings RCF with Triple Point Leasing Limited (which was then cancelled) and also to repay £29.5 million to the Company.
During the period interest totalling £0.8 million was earned on the Company's long-term interest-bearing loan between the Company and its subsidiary (to 30 September 2023: £2.2million). At the period end, £1 million was outstanding (31 March 2023: £0.7 million).
The loans from the Company to TENT Holdings are unsecured; the underlying loans from TENT Holdings to the investment portfolio are secured against the assets of the borrowing companies by a fixed and floating charge.
In the six-month period to 30 September 2023 TENT Holdings paid total dividends of £0.9 million to the Company, which represented commensurate dividends received by TENT Holdings from the Hydroelectric portfolio in the same period. The Company received no dividends from TENT Holdings in the six-month period to 30 September 2024.
The AIFM and Investment Manager
The Company and Triple Point Investment Management LLP have entered into the Investment Management Agreement pursuant to which the Investment Manager has been given responsibility, subject to the overall supervision of the Board, for active discretionary investment management of the Company's Portfolio in accordance with the Company's Investment Objective and Policy.
At the Company's General Meeting on 22 March 2024, Shareholders approved amendments to the Investment Management Agreement on the terms summarised in Part I of the Circular published to Shareholders on 5 March 2024 and also included in the Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2024.
Under the IMA, the Investment Manager is entitled to receive management fees on the following basis: a fixed retainer fee equal to 0.9% of the average market capitalisation of the Company during the relevant month, which is payable in cash and on a monthly basis (the "Retainer Fee"); and a success fee (the "Success Fee" and together with the Retainer Fee, the "Fee") based on the value realised across the portfolio of assets (including committed amounts) ("Value Realised"), and calculated using the percentage of the gross sale value of the Group's investments, less the direct costs specifically associated with the sale of such investments (for example, fees of professional and legal advisers), against the carrying value of the investments at the time of sale based on (i) the most recent third party reviewed published asset level NAV (in the case of equity investments) or (ii) drawn amounts, including repayments made since 30 September 2023 (in the case of debt investments) ("Carrying Value") (the "Percentage Value Achieved").
The Success Fee will be determined on an aggregated basis across the sale of all of the Group's investments, incentivising the Investment Manager to continue to work on the tail of the portfolio and achieve the best return for the Company and its Shareholders. The Success Fee will be payable upon the completion of the disposal of the Group's final investment unless, before such disposal, the Investment Management Agreement is terminated as a result of Shareholders approving either (i) the winding up of the Company; or (ii) the appointment of a receiver or administrator over any of the assets of the Company; (each being a "Termination Event"). If the Investment Management Agreement is so terminated, the Success Fee will be payable at the date of termination.
The Success Fee will be calculated using the following fee structure:
Percentage Value Achieved | | Success Fee payable (percentage of Value Realised) |
80% - 84.9% of Carrying Value | | 0.80% |
85% - 89.9% of Carrying Value | | 0.90% |
90% and above of Carrying Value | | 1.00% |
There are no performance fees payable to the Investment Manager.
The Investment Management Agreement will automatically terminate on 20 October 2025, if it is not terminated before then in accordance with its terms.
The Investment Manager is the Company's AIFM, and is the entity appointed to be responsible for risk management and portfolio management. Following the amendments to the Investment Management Agreement and to the Company's Investment Objective and Policy, all disposals of assets will be subject to the Board's approval.
The management fee is calculated and accrues monthly and is invoiced monthly in arrears. During the six months ended 30 September 2024, management fees of £297,006 were incurred (30 September 2023: £443,458) of which £43,764 (30 September 2023: £220,308) was payable at the period end.
