The Company notes that the approval of the new investment policy by shareholders satisfies one of a number of conditions to completion of the Company's conditional disposal of its distributed solar assets (the DG Solar Transaction), which was announced on 13 December 2024. Progress continues to be made toward the satisfaction of the various other consents and conditions. Completion of the DG Solar Transaction is still expected to occur within the first quarter of 2025 and a further announcement will be made in due course.
