On an organic basis , revenue declined by 2.7% . \n ·    Adjusted operating profit up 2.2% on an organic basis, reflecting actions taken in North America, including the significant benefit to Plano in part from last-time-buys, continued strong demand in European Aerospace & Defence markets, offset by softness in EMS demand. \n ·      Statutory operating loss of £28.2 million (2024: £23.5 million loss) driven by £65.4 million of one-off charges (2024: £60.6 million), primarily relating to impairment charges of £41.4 million (2024: £52.2 million) in the North American business and restructuring and other costs of £15.2 million (2024: £0.1 million credit), the majority of which are non-cash. \n ·      Adjusted basic earnings per share were 6.9 pence (2024: 11.0 pence ), reflecting the increase in adjusted effective tax rate from the inability to currently recognise a deferred tax asset in respect of US losses. The statutory basic loss per share was 28.5 pence (2024: 30.2 pence loss ). \n ·     Free cash flow was £29.9 million (2024: £27.7 million), with much improved cash conversion of 150% (2024: 117% ), driven mainly by inventory reduction initiatives. Net cash from operating activities remained strong at £50.0 million (2024: £51.2 million). \n ·    Net debt (excluding lease liabilities) reduced to £50.3 million (2024: £80.1 million), with leverage of 1.1x (2024: 1.8x). Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) expiry date has been extended by 12 months to June 2028 and facility size reduced to £105.0 million. \n Operational Highlights: \n ·      Production at the Plano site ceased at the end of the year as planned, with last-time buy profit contribution of c.£3.5 million in H2 which drove a £1.2 million site contribution to group profit for the year. 2025 revenue from the Plano site was £13.0 million. \n ·      Cleveland turnaround is on track, with significant improvements in operational and financial performance leading to the site breaking even on an adjusted basis in Q4.  \n o  Future profitability at Cleveland will be supported by ongoing improvement initiatives together with a drive for growth in order volumes from new and existing customers to increase factory utilisation. \n ·     Improved inventory management led to £14.8 million of underlying inventory reductions over the year; this will remain a priority into 2026. \n Outlook: \n ·     We enter 2026 with strengthened operational discipline and a more robust financial position, with structural Aerospace & Defence demand supporting growth. Targeted actions are underway to improve EMS performance, however demand in EMS end markets remains mixed, reflecting broader macroeconomic uncertainty and customer caution. \n ·    Reorganisation to divisional structure of Power, EMS and Components, which better aligns the business to our customers, markets and operations.  \n ·    Cost reduction programme expected to deliver approximately £3 million net benefit in 2026, with medium-term annualised savings double this level. \n ·    Strategic review of Components business completed, with the Board assessing a range of options, including a potential disposal subject to market conditions. \n ·    The Board expects 2026 revenue and adjusted operating profit to be in line with Company compiled consensus 5 . \n   \n Eric Lakin, Chief Executive Officer, commented: \n \"2025 was a year of transition for TT Electronics, and I am pleased to report an improved financial position of the Group in my first set of annual results as Chief Executive Officer. During the year, we addressed operational challenges, strengthened accountability and restored control across the business, resulting in a materially improved performance in the second half. \n We enter the new financial year with a clearer strategic direction and a stronger platform for growth, underpinned by our four priorities of divisional realignment, cost reduction, sales transformation and portfolio optimisation. Whilst we are mindful of the current elevated geopolitical uncertainty, we remain confident in our ability to deliver further operational and financial progress over time.\" \n Notes \n 1 Throughout this announcement we refer to a number of alternative performance measures which provide additional useful information.

TT engineers and manufactures electronic solutions enabling a safer, healthier and more sustainable world. TT benefits from historically high-growth markets including Healthcare, Aerospace, Defence, Automation and Electrification. TT invests in R&D to create designed-in products where reliability is mission critical. Products designed and manufactured include sensors, power management and connectivity solutions. TT has design and manufacturing facilities in the UK, North America and Asia. \n \n   \n CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REVIEW \n   \n 2025 was a transitional year for TT Electronics, during which important strategic progress was made against a backdrop of continued market uncertainty, leadership transition and a period of increased corporate activity. The approach by Cicor in the second half of the year demonstrates the perceived value of the business in our market. Throughout this period, the business remained focused on meeting customer needs, delivering on its objectives and building a foundation for future growth.  \n   \n As outlined at the half year, strong performance in Europe, driven by Aerospace & Defence (A&D) markets, was offset by challenges in parts of North America and softer demand in certain Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS) end markets, as anticipated. Actions taken in the first half contributed to the improved performance in the second half, putting the Group on much stronger footing as we enter 2026. \n   \n OPERATIONAL PROGRESS \n   \n In North America, we made significant progress in addressing the site-specific operational issues highlighted earlier in the year. At our Cleveland facility, the deployment of specialist operational support, together with strengthened site leadership and tighter operational controls, led to improvements in productivity, yield, rework, customer service and cost performance. Losses reduced materially through the year, and performance improved in the second half, positioning the site for a return to profitability in the medium-term. \n   \n At our Plano site production ceased at the end of the year with final product testing and customer deliveries currently being completed and production equipment from the site now divested. The site made a positive contribution to adjusted group profit of £1.2 million in the year as a result of the last-time-buy profit contribution of c.£3.5 million in H2. Across North America overall, adjusted operating profit improved to £1.2 million, compared with a loss of £2.7 million in 2024. \n   \n In addition, we completed the transfer of some production from our Suzhou site in China to our facility in Kuantan, Malaysia, in response to a major customer requirement to diversify its supply chain. This complex transfer included both EMS and cable harness programmes and required close collaboration with the customer to ensure continuity of supply. The successful execution of this project demonstrates our ability to support customers as they adapt to changing geopolitical and regulatory environments. \n   \n Kuantan is now positioned to support higher production volumes for this customer and others as supply chains continue to regionalise. Suzhou remains an important part of our Asia footprint, focused on supporting local and regional customers as well as new programme opportunities, and continues to play a key role in our Asia-for-Asia manufacturing strategy. This customer transfer activity and softer EMS demand meant Asia's adjusted operating profit reduced by 24% year-on-year but enters 2026 on a stronger operational footing having completed the production transfer.  \n   \n Performance in Europe was particularly encouraging, underpinned by sustained demand in A&D and strong execution across the region. Adjusted operating profit increased by 17% in Europe, delivering a Group-leading margin of 15.3%, reflecting improved operational leverage and programme mix. The region secured several significant long-term programme awards during the year, including new contracts supporting European defence platforms and next-generation aerospace applications, reinforcing our position as a trusted supplier on mission-critical systems. \n   \n Renewed organisational focus \n   \n Over the year we strengthened the Group's leadership and governance arrangements. We established a clearer Executive Committee structure, clarified accountability at site and regional level and improved operational oversight across the business, which has been central to the progress made in 2025 and to support ongoing execution going into 2026. \n   \n Throughout the period of corporate activity in the second half of the year, management remained focused on the business, our customers and underlying performance. The Board also used this period to review the Group's organisational structure and cost base, reinforcing the focus on operational discipline and performance improvement and creating renewed momentum behind the Group's strategic and operational priorities. \n   \n Strategic assessment of Components business \n   \n As announced at the half year, we undertook a strategic assessment of our Components activities across all four active sites. This work considered the strategic positioning of the business within the Group's broader portfolio and its long-term role within TT Electronics. \n   \n During 2025, the business was under separate management oversight to ensure appropriate focus and oversight while the assessment was completed. This structure contributed to improved operational performance in the second half. \n   \n Following completion of the assessment, the Board is evaluating a range of strategic options for the Components business, including a potential disposal, with any decision to be guided by value and prevailing market conditions. \n   \n Investing in innovation \n   \n Engineering is key to our competitive advantage and customer value proposition.  We are committed to investing in technology, products and capability, especially in power electronics, value-added EMS and specialist components. During the year, we launched several products and reached key development milestones including: \n   \n ·      AX-FORCE - a family of smarter, more efficient, flexible power conversion and control solutions for harsh environments in the A&D market. This is addressing rapidly growing demand in electrification of systems and platforms and positions TT with world class, differentiated technology. \n   \n ·      Delivered bespoke power conditioning units designed and developed by TT for an ultra-long range business jet programme, now undergoing flight qualification. This reinforces our position as a trusted supplier for high-performance aviation platforms. \n   \n ·     Expanded capability to manufacture high-power transformers for classified military applications, establishing significant new capability and creating a foundation that can be applied to broader high-growth sectors such as data centre and energy infrastructure. \n   \n ·     Developed manufacturing process capability for high power density Silicon Carbide (SiC) power modules utilising silver sintering technology, with delivery of first prototype modules to a major aerospace customer. \n   \n ·    Leverage of our global engineering resources to support a new customer's nearshoring strategy, establishing local manufacturing and NPI capability with rapid execution. \n   \n ·     Expansion of our system integration offering to include advanced precision-machined components, supporting complex assembly and testing for a global life sciences instrument OEM. \n   \n   \n FINANCIAL PROGRESS \n   \n For the year ended 31 December 2025, Group revenue was £481.4 million ( 2024 : £521.1 million), a 7.6% decline on a statutory basis and 2.7% decline on an organic basis compared with the prior year. This reflected continued strength in Europe, driven by A&D markets, a contribution from last-time-buy revenue at our Plano site, offset by softer demand in certain EMS end markets in North America and Asia. \n   \n Adjusted operating profit increased by 2.2% on an organic basis to £37.2 million (2024 2 : £36.4 million), with the adjusted operating margin improving by 30 basis points on an organic basis to 7.7% (2024: 7.4%). This represented the benefits of operational actions taken earlier in the year which led to stronger execution in the second half, including improvements in North America and the decision to close our site at Plano. Strong demand in European Aerospace & Defence was offset by softness in EMS markets. Last-time-buy activity in Plano in H2 contributed c.£3.5 million to adjusted operating profit, which drove a £1.2 million site contribution to Group profit for the year. In what was a transitional year for the Group, it was particularly pleasing to deliver results in line with market expectations. \n   \n The statutory operating loss was £28.2 million ( 2024: £23.5 million loss) driven by £65.4 million of one-off charges (2024: £60.6 million), primarily relating to restructuring and Goodwill impairment in the North American business , the latter following a re-assessment of future growth rates and timing for certain North American businesses where end market demand remains soft.  The majority of the one-off charges are non-cash. T he statutory operating loss margin was 5.9% (2024: operating loss margin 4.5%). \n   \n Cash generation was strong, supported by disciplined working capital management, including significant inventory reduction and improved receivables performance. Net debt (excluding leases) reduced to £50.3 million at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: £80.1 million) , with improved leverage of 1.1x (31 December 2024: 1.8x) , at the lower end of the Group's target range. \n   \n Further detail on the Group's financial performance and cash flow is set out in the Chief Financial Officer's review. \n   \n STRATEGIC PRIORITIES \n   \n Following actions taken during 2025, the Group is aligned around a clear set of strategic priorities focused on improving execution, strengthening margins, and delivering sustainable free cash flow. Our approach is centred on disciplined implementation while building on the Group's core engineering and manufacturing capabilities. Our four strategic priorities are set out below. \n   \n Divisional realignment \n   \n We are reorganising the Group during 2026 to better align our structure with our customers, end markets, products and capabilities. This will involve moving from the current regional structure towards clearer alignment around Power, EMS and Components. This approach better reflects how the Group operates and will improve collaboration across sites, support more effective deployment of resources and align more closely with how customers engage with the Group. \n   \n Sales transformation \n   \n Strengthening business development and commercial execution is a key priority as we enter 2026. \n   \n During 2025, we began implementing a sales transformation programme focused on people, tools and processes, aimed at improving pipeline visibility, order intake and pricing discipline. This has been supported by investing in the business development team, enhanced use of CRM, clearer sales accountability and a renewed drive for new customers and business opportunities. Initial benefits are being seen with a significant improvement in order intake in H2 compared to H1, driven in part by strength in the A&D market. The programme remains focused on strengthening performance across the Group, particularly within EMS in North America and Asia. \n   \n Cost reduction \n   \n In addition to ongoing continuous improvement activity, we are implementing a targeted cost reduction programme to simplify the Group's cost base and support a leaner operating model. This is focused on reducing structural overheads, devolving greater responsibility to operating sites and improving efficiency, while maintaining the engineering, manufacturing and customer service capabilities required to support our core markets. \n   \n We expect the programme to deliver a benefit of approximately £3.0 million in 2026, net of contingencies and implementation costs. Over the medium term, we expect the annualised benefit to increase to double this level as the programme is fully implemented. \n   \n Portfolio optimisation \n   \n We continue to review the Group's portfolio on an ongoing basis to ensure it remains aligned with our strategic priorities and areas of competitive advantage. This includes maintaining a disciplined, value-led approach to any potential disposals, including the Components business, as well as considering selective bolt-on opportunities that enhance capability, technology or market access in our core sectors. Disciplined capital allocation will remain an important element of the Group's longer-term objective of improving margin quality and strengthening returns, including consideration of future shareholder distributions as performance and leverage allow. \n   \n DIVIDEND \n   \n Looking ahead, the Board will balance strategic investment in growth with the objective of building a more financially robust business capable of supporting shareholder returns. Dividends remain an important component of the Group's capital allocation framework. No dividend will be paid in respect of 2025; however, the Board recognises the importance of dividends to shareholders and will keep the position under review. \n   \n GOING CONCERN \n   \n In determining the appropriate basis of preparation of the financial statements, the Directors are required to consider whether the Group can continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. \n   \n After making enquiries and having considered forecasts and appropriate sensitivities, the Directors have formed the judgement that there is a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being at least 12 months from the date of these financial statements. More information on the going concern judgement can be found in Note 2. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. \n   \n   \n 2026 OUTLOOK \n   \n Demand in A&D continues to be strong, providing good visibility and supporting ongoing margin improvement, particularly in Europe. Demand in EMS end markets remains mixed, reflecting broader macroeconomic uncertainty and customer caution. Nevertheless, the actions taken during 2025 have strengthened the Group's operational discipline and financial position. Entering 2026, the Board is confident that the Group is better positioned to manage current market conditions and to make further progress through continued focus on execution and commercial effectiveness. Delivery of the recently announced cost reduction programme is a key priority and is expected to provide further support during the year. \n   \n The Board expects 2026 revenue and adjusted operating profit to be in line with Company compiled consensus. \n   \n \n CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER'S REVIEW \n   \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Adjusted 1 \n \n \n \n \n 2025 \n \n \n 2024 \n \n \n Change \n \n \n \n \n Revenue (£m) (organic) \n \n \n 481.4 \n \n \n 494.8 \n \n \n (2.7)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit (£m) (organic) \n \n \n 37.2 \n \n \n 36.4 \n \n \n 2.2% \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit margin 4 (%) (organic) \n \n \n 7.7% \n \n \n 7.4% \n \n \n 30bps \n \n \n \n \n Net finance expense (£m) \n \n \n (8.5) \n \n \n (9.9) \n \n \n 14.1% \n \n \n \n \n Profit before tax (£m) \n \n \n 28.7 \n \n \n 27.2 \n \n \n 5.5% \n \n \n \n \n Tax (£m) \n \n \n (16.4) \n \n \n (7.7) \n \n \n (113.0)% \n \n \n \n \n Tax rate (%) \n \n \n 57.1% \n \n \n 28.3% \n \n \n 28.8%pts \n \n \n \n \n Profit after tax (£m) \n \n \n 12.3 \n \n \n 19.5 \n \n \n (36.9)% \n \n \n \n \n Weighted average number of shares (m) \n \n \n 177.8 \n \n \n 176.9 \n \n \n 0.9 \n \n \n \n \n Basic earnings per share (p) \n \n \n 6.9 \n \n \n 11.0 \n \n \n (37.3)% \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Statutory 4 \n \n \n \n \n Revenue (£m) \n \n \n 481.4 \n \n \n 521.1 \n \n \n (7.6)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating (loss) (£m) \n \n \n (28.2) \n \n \n (23.5) \n \n \n (20.0)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating (loss) margin 4 (%) \n \n \n (5.9)% \n \n \n (4.5)% \n \n \n (140)bps \n \n \n \n \n Net finance expense (£m) \n \n \n (8.5) \n \n \n (9.9) \n \n \n 14.1% \n \n \n \n \n (Loss) before tax (£m) \n \n \n (36.7) \n \n \n (33.4) \n \n \n (9.9)% \n \n \n \n \n Tax (£m) \n \n \n (13.9) \n \n \n (20.0) \n \n \n 30.5% \n \n \n \n \n Tax rate (%) \n \n \n 37.9% \n \n \n 59.9% \n \n \n (22.0)%pts \n \n \n \n \n (Loss) after tax (£m) \n \n \n (50.6) \n \n \n (53.4) \n \n \n 5.2% \n \n \n \n \n Weighted average number of shares (m) \n \n \n 177.8 \n \n \n 176.9 \n \n \n 0.9 \n \n \n \n \n Basic (loss) per share (p) \n \n \n (28.5) \n \n \n (30.2) \n \n \n 5.7% \n \n \n \n \n Revenue \n   \n Group revenue was £481.4 million (2024: £521.1 million). The year-on-year reduction primarily reflected currency translation headwinds of £10.1 million and the impact of the divestment of our Cardiff, Hartlepool and Dongguan sites in Q1 2024, which reduced revenue by £16.2 million. \n   \n Trading improved during the second half as operational performance stabilised, repricing initiatives took effect, and the Group progressed actions to address underperformance in North America, including the planned cessation of production at the Plano site. This included a £3.5 million contribution to adjusted operating profit from last-time buys in H2 which drove a £1.2 million site contribution to group profit for the year . \n   \n On an organic basis, revenue declined by 2.7%, or £13.4 million, compared with the prior year of £494.8 million. This reflected softer demand in several EMS end markets, particularly in North America and Asia, partly offset by continued strength in A&D markets in Europe. \n \n \n End market revenue breakdown \n   \n \n \n \n \n £m \n \n \n 2025 \n \n \n \n 2024 \n (organic 1 ) \n \n \n \n 2024 \n \n \n \n \n Revenue \n \n \n 481.4 \n \n \n 494.8 \n \n \n 521.1 \n \n \n \n \n Aerospace & Defence (A&D) \n \n \n 152.8 \n \n \n 136.4 \n \n \n 142.1 \n \n \n \n \n Healthcare \n \n \n 107.8 \n \n \n 112.6 \n \n \n 118.1 \n \n \n \n \n Automation & Electrification (A&E) \n \n \n 140.1 \n \n \n 161.1 \n \n \n 174.3 \n \n \n \n \n Distribution \n \n \n 80.7 \n \n \n 84.7 \n \n \n 86.6 \n \n \n \n \n   \n A&D revenue increased to £152.8 million (2024: £136.4 million), reflecting continued strength in demand across our European operations and supporting improved margin quality.

Healthcare revenues were £107.8 million (2024: £112.6 million), with performance affected by lower demand in certain medical and life sciences programmes. Distribution revenues were £80.7 million (2024: £84.7 million), broadly reflecting the continued normalisation of component demand following elevated levels in prior years. \n Operating profit \n The Group delivered adjusted operating profit of £37.2 million (2024 2 : £36.4 million), which was an organic increase of 2.2% reflecting operational actions taken during the year which drove a stronger second-half performance. This included a positive contribution from last-time-buy activity at the Plano site in H2 of c.£3.5 million , which drove a £1.2 million site contribution to profit for the year. \n   \n After recognising £65.4 million of adjusting items (see below), the Group reported a statutory operating loss of £28.2 million (2024: £23.5 million). \n Operating margin \n The Group generated an organic adjusted operating margin of 7.7% (2024: 7.4%). The improvement reflected stronger execution across the business and the benefits of operational actions taken during the year, partly offset by headwinds in Asia due to reduced volumes. \n   \n On a statutory basis, the Group recorded an operating loss margin of 5.9% (2024: operating loss margin 4.5%), reflecting the impact of the adjusting items set out below. \n Adjusting items \n The Group recognised £65.4 million of items excluded from adjusted operating profit. These comprised of: \n   \n ·     Restructuring and other costs of £15.2 million (2024: £0.1 million credit), including approximately £7.0 million relating to the closure of the Plano facility in the US; £6.1 million of restructuring costs at the Cleveland facility, including specialist operational support and inventory write-downs; £1.6 million relating to group management changes reflecting duplicate costs for senior management transition; and £0.5 million of other restructuring costs. \n ·      Asset impairment charges of £41.4 million (2024: £52.2 million), comprising £37.2 million of goodwill attributed to the North American business and £4.2 million of non-current assets across two sites in North America. \n ·     Acquisition and disposal-related costs of £4.3 million (2024: £4.5 million), primarily relating to costs incurred in connection with the Cicor approach. \n ·     Pension restructuring costs of £1.9 million (2024: £1.3 million), relating to preparation of the UK defined benefit scheme for wind-up. \n ·      Amortisation of acquisition-related intangible assets of £2.6 million (2024: £2.7 million). \n   \n Of the above adjusting items, £7.9 million are cash impacting. These relate to £4.2 million of restructuring costs, primarily associated with Cleveland and management changes, and £3.7 million of acquisition and disposal-related costs, mainly relating to the Cicor approach. \n Net finance expense \n The net finance cost reduced to £ 8.5 million ( 2024 : £ 9.9 million) due to lower interest rates and lower debt levels. \n Profitability \n Adjusted profit before tax was £28.7 million (2024: £27.2 million). On a statutory basis, the Group reported a loss before tax of £36.7 million (2024: £33.4 million loss), reflecting the adjusting items described above. \n   \n Adjusted basic earnings per share were 6.9 pence (2024: 11.0 pence). The statutory basic loss per share was 28.5 pence (2024: 30.2 pence loss ). \n Taxation \n The Group's overall tax charge was £13.9 million (2024: £20.0 million). \n   \n The tax charge on adjusted profit before tax was £ 16.4 million ( 2024: £ 7.7 million), resulting in an adjusted effective tax rate (ETR) of 57.1% ( 2024 : 28.3 %). The adjusted profit after tax was £12.3 million (2024: £19.5 million) and the statutory loss after tax was £50.6 million (2024: £53.4 million). \n   \n This higher than usual tax rate is due to losses in the US and the inability to currently recognise a deferred tax asset in respect of those losses, following the derecognition of the deferred tax asset of £ 16.0 million in 2024 , as well as £2.7 million in 2025 due to the near term outlook for the US businesses. There is insufficient certainty regarding the timing and quantum of future taxable profits to support deferred tax asset recognition. \n   \n The adjusted earnings per share is 6.9p (2024: 11.0p).  In the current period, if a deferred tax asset had been able to be recognised with respect to current year US losses it is anticipated that this would have reduced the adjusted effective tax rate to 25.4% and increased the adjusted earnings per share  by 5.1p to 12.0p. The timing of when a deferred tax asset will be able to be recognised in future years is uncertain and will be based on the future forecast profitability of the US businesses at the point of recognition. \n   \n   \n   \n Cash flow \n The table below sets out Group cash flows and net debt movement: \n   \n \n \n \n \n £m \n \n \n 2025 \n \n \n 2024 \n \n \n \n \n Adjusted operating profit \n \n \n 37.2 \n \n \n 37.1 \n \n \n \n \n Depreciation and amortisation \n \n \n 12.1 \n \n \n 13.8 \n \n \n \n \n Impairment of PPE and intangibles \n \n \n 1.0 \n \n \n - \n \n \n \n \n Working capital movement \n \n \n 12.7 \n \n \n (1.2) \n \n \n \n \n Net capital expenditure \n \n \n (7.5) \n \n \n (6.9) \n \n \n \n \n Capitalised development expenditure \n \n \n (1.1) \n \n \n (1.8) \n \n \n \n \n Other \n \n \n 1.4 \n \n \n 2.4 \n \n \n \n \n Adjusted Operating Cash Flow post-Capex \n \n \n 55.8 \n \n \n 43.4 \n \n \n \n \n Cash conversion % \n \n \n 150% \n \n \n 117% \n \n \n \n \n Restructuring and acquisition costs \n \n \n (7.9) \n \n \n (0.6) \n \n \n \n \n Net interest and tax \n \n \n (15.3) \n \n \n (20.3) \n \n \n \n \n Lease payments \n \n \n (3.8) \n \n \n (4.2) \n \n \n \n \n Reimbursement from pension schemes net of funding payments \n \n \n 1.1 \n \n \n 9.4 \n \n \n \n \n Free Cash Flow \n \n \n 29.9 \n \n \n 27.7 \n \n \n \n \n Dividends \n \n \n - \n \n \n (12.2) \n \n \n \n \n Lease payments \n \n \n 3.8 \n \n \n 4.2 \n \n \n \n \n Equity issued \n \n \n 0.6 \n \n \n 0.8 \n \n \n \n \n Disposals \n \n \n - \n \n \n 12.2 \n \n \n \n \n Other \n \n \n - \n \n \n (2.1) \n \n \n \n \n Net debt impacting cashflow \n \n \n 34.3 \n \n \n 30.6 \n \n \n \n \n Opening net debt \n \n \n (97.4) \n \n \n (126.2) \n \n \n \n \n Leases disposed \n \n \n - \n \n \n 2.6 \n \n \n \n \n Other non-cash (new leases and lease reassessments) \n \n \n (3.0) \n \n \n (3.2) \n \n \n \n \n FX \n \n \n 1.4 \n \n \n (1.2) \n \n \n \n \n Closing net debt \n \n \n (64.7) \n \n \n (97.4) \n \n \n \n \n   \n Adjusted operating cash flow post capital expenditure was £55.8 million (2024: £43.4 million). This was supported by a £12.7 million working capital inflow (2024: £1.2 million outflow), reflecting improved inventory management and tighter working capital control across the Group. A particular focus on inventory reduction delivered underlying inventory reductions of £14.8 million during the year. \n   \n On a statutory basis, net cash from operating activities remained strong at £50.0 million (2024: £51.2 million), reflecting robust underlying profitability and disciplined working capital management. \n   \n After net interest and tax payments of £15.3 million, lease payments of £3.8 million, restructuring and acquisition-related cash costs of £7.9 million, and a £1.1 million inflow relating to the US pension scheme buy-out, the Group generated free cash flow of £29.9 million (2024: £27.7 million). \n Net debt and leverage \n Net debt reduced by £32.7 million during the year, supported by strong free cash flow. After taking into account foreign exchange movements and non-cash lease adjustments, closing net debt was £64.7 million (2024: £97.4 million) including £14.4 million of lease liabilities (31 December 2024: £17.3 million). Excluding lease liabilities, net debt was £50.3 million (31 December 2024: £80.1 million). \n   \n In line with the Group's borrowing agreements, which exclude the impact of IFRS 16 leases, the leverage ratio was 1.1x at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: 1.8x) and net interest cover was 5.6x (31 December 2024: 4.4x). \n   \n The Group's debt facilities include financial covenants requiring leverage to remain below 3.0x and interest cover to remain above 4.0x. A temporary amendment to the interest cover covenant was agreed with lenders in late 2024 for the periods to 30 June 2025 and 31 December 2025, reducing the minimum requirement to 3.0x and 3.25x respectively, providing additional headroom during the year. \n   \n The Group remained compliant with its covenant requirements throughout the period. \n   \n In addition, the Group successfully amended and extended its Revolving Credit Facility to June 2028, post the year end. It was not necessary to seek further amendments to the interest cover covenant under the amended and extended facility, which has reverted to the prior requirement to remain above 4.0x. The expiry date has been extended by 12 months to June 2028 and facility size reduced to £105.0 million. \n   \n Notes \n 1 Throughout this announcement we refer to a number of alternative performance measures which provide additional useful information. Organic revenue and organic operating profit are revenue and adjusted operating profit on a constant currency basis 2 and excluding the impacts of business disposals (e.g. Project Albert) 3 , see APM 1 and APM 2 on page 43. The Directors have adopted these measures to provide additional information on the underlying trends, performance and position of the Group with further details set out in Note 2 on page 30.  The adjusted measures are set out in the reconciliation of KPIs and non IFRS measures on pages 39 to 45. \n 2 Constant currency performance is calculated by translating prior period performance at the current period's FX rates. \n 3 Adjusted results exclude the impact of Project Albert, being the divestment of the Group's business units in Cardiff and Hartlepool, UK, and Dongguan, China, which completed in Q1 2024. \n 4 Statutory results are reported in accordance with IFRS and include the impact of foreign exchange movements and discontinued operations where applicable. \n 5 A reconciliation of KPIs and non-IFRS measures can be found on pages 39 to 45. \n \n Summary of Adjusted results \n To assist with the understanding of earnings trends, the Group has included within its non-GAAP alternative performance measures including adjusted operating profit and adjusted profit.

For further information on these items please refer to Note 5. \n   \n Revenue reduced by 1.3% compared to 2024, with organic growth offset by the £11.8 million impact of the Q1 2024 disposal of sites in Cardiff and Hartlepool. Organic revenue increased by 7.4% to £144.4 million (2024: £134.5 million) driven predominantly by increased demand from our positioning on long term programmes in A&D, including several significant customer wins. \n   \n Adjusted operating profit increased by 16.9% to £22.1 million (2024: £18.9 million) and increased by 13.9% on an organic basis to £22.1 million (2024: £19.4 million). This improvement reflected decisive actions to address underperforming contracts through customer repricing agreements, together with enhanced engineering capability and associated revenue, improved operational execution and continued cost discipline. As a result, the adjusted operating margin increased to 15.3% (2024: 12.9%), and by 90 basis points on an organic basis. \n   \n On a statutory basis, operating profit was £22.1 million (2024: £18.9 million), up 16.9% on the prior year. \n   \n Overall order intake for the region was encouragingly strong throughout the year, with strong organic growth in our core A&D market and positioning ourselves well with key customers to take advantage of a resurgence in civil aviation. The book to bill ratio improved to 135% for the region in 2025, compared to 125% in 2024. \n   \n The region is well-positioned for further growth in 2026, led by expanding A&D markets, continued investment in our customer suite, automation and digitalisation facilities, and advancement of our technology roadmaps. \n   \n Notable contract awards and growth drivers during the year included: \n ·     A new five-year contract with an existing A&D customer to supply human-machine interface assemblies for a European combat vehicle programme, strengthening TT's role in mission-critical defence systems. \n ·     Multiple new business wins in the second half across emerging markets including Electrical Vertical Take-off and Landing (eVTOL), sixth-generation fighter aircraft and uncrewed platforms, demonstrating the broadening application of TT's technologies. \n ·     Continuing our strong, long-standing partnership with a large European A&D prime we have recently announced a sizeable contract to supply military grade cable harness assemblies for a critical defence programme. This new contract award leverages TT's exceptional capabilities and proven track record of supporting critical defence applications worldwide. \n   \n \n REGIONAL REVIEW: NORTH AMERICA \n   \n \n \n \n \n £m Adjusted  \n \n \n 2025 \n \n \n 2024 \n \n \n Change \n \n \n \n \n Revenue \n \n \n 173.1 \n \n \n 184.4 \n \n \n (6.1)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit / (loss) \n \n \n 1.2 \n \n \n (2.7) \n \n \n 144.4% \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit margin / (loss) \n \n \n 0.7% \n \n \n (1.5%) \n \n \n 220bps \n \n \n \n \n Adjusted & Organic  \n \n \n \n \n Revenue 1 \n \n \n 173.1 \n \n \n 179.7 \n \n \n (3.7)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit / (loss) 1 \n \n \n 1.2 \n \n \n (2.7) \n \n \n 144.4% \n \n \n \n \n Operating margin / (loss) 1 \n \n \n 0.7% \n \n \n (1.5%) \n \n \n 220bps \n \n \n \n \n Statutory  \n \n \n \n \n Operating (loss) \n \n \n (16.1) \n \n \n (18.1) \n \n \n 11.0% \n \n \n \n \n   \n 1  See Note 2 on page 30 for an explanation of alternative performance measures, and APM 2 on page 43 in relation to organic measures which present revenue and adjusted profit on a constant currency basis, excluding the impacts of business disposals and adjusting items.  Adjusting items are not allocated to regions for reporting purposes. For further information on these items please refer to Note 5. \n   \n Revenue was 6.1% lower than prior year at £173.1 million (2024: £184.4 million) as weaker USD negatively impacted North American performance. Excluding the impact of FX, organic adjusted revenue declined by 3.7% to £173.1 million (2024: £179.7 million), reflecting reduced sales at the Cleveland site and volume headwinds in the Components business. This decrease was partially offset by new business opportunities in A&D and Healthcare sectors which drove higher revenues at the Minneapolis and Kansas City sites. \n   \n Despite weaker year-on-year revenue performance, operational changes implemented in North America resulted in improved regional performance, with adjusted operating profit increasing to £1.2 million (2024: £2.7 million loss). The adjusted operating profit margin was 0.7% (2024: operating loss margin 1.5%) reflecting the improved performance in Minneapolis and Kansas City offset by Cleveland, and c.£3.5 million of Plano last-time-buy activity in H2 which drove a £1.2 million site contribution to group profit for the year . \n   \n On a statutory basis, North America posted an operating loss of £16.1 million (2024: £18.1 million loss), which was a 11.0% improvement on the prior year. \n   \n Following historic challenges at the site, Cleveland began to benefit from operational improvement initiatives introduced in the first half, delivering its highest production efficiency levels in three years alongside further reductions in scrap and rework. The site is now in a significantly stronger operational position entering 2026. Further improvement in site profitability will be reliant on revenue growth, which is a priority for the site.  \n   \n The Group recognised adjusting items in the period related to the region, being restructuring costs of £13.1 million (2024: £0.1 million credit)  relating to Plano and Cleveland, as well as impairment charges of £4.2 million (2024: £15.5 million relating to a separate site in the region), comprising  non-current assets across two North American sites. \n   \n In addition, goodwill of £37.2 million attributed to the region has been impaired and recognised within Central adjusting items. \n   \n Kansas' improvement trajectory accelerated in the second half, with productivity gains and customer repricing contributing to improved financial and operational performance. Major repricing activities have now been completed, and the site enters 2026 with a strong order book. \n   \n Production at the Plano site ceased at the end of the year as planned with final product testing and customer deliveries currently being completed, and production equipment from the site divested. The site made a positive contribution in the second half as a result of last-time-buy activity associated with the closure, and the action removes a structurally loss-making facility from the Group's footprint. \n   \n Following changes to the business development organisation to increase capacity, win new contracts, and encourage cross selling, there was a significant improvement to order intake in H2 and continued growth across all sites. Notable wins in the period include: \n ·      Cleveland secured three new customers and six new product wins in the second half - its first new customer wins in three years - reducing reliance on legacy programmes and supporting future growth. \n ·      Kansas secured several new product awards, including a new multi-year power supply contract with a long-standing customer. \n ·      A customer in the commercial satellite sector selected the Juarez facility to supply high-reliability optoelectronics for use in a low earth orbit satellite programme, reflecting the strength of distributor-led customer relationships and early-stage design engagement. \n   \n The book to bill ratio for the region in 2025 improved to 104%, compared to 98% in 2024. \n \n   \n REGIONAL REVIEW: ASIA \n   \n \n \n \n \n £m Adjusted  \n \n \n 2025 \n \n \n 2024 \n \n \n Change \n \n \n \n \n Revenue \n \n \n 163.9 \n \n \n 190.4 \n \n \n (13.9)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit \n \n \n 21.6 \n \n \n 28.5 \n \n \n (24.2)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit margin \n \n \n 13.2% \n \n \n 15.0% \n \n \n (180)bps \n \n \n \n \n Adjusted & Organic  \n \n \n \n \n Revenue 1 \n \n \n 163.9 \n \n \n 180.6 \n \n \n (9.2)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit 1 \n \n \n 21.6 \n \n \n 27.1 \n \n \n (20.3)% \n \n \n \n \n Operating margin 1 \n \n \n 13.2% \n \n \n 15.0% \n \n \n (180)bps \n \n \n \n \n Statutory  \n \n \n \n \n Operating profit \n \n \n 21.6 \n \n \n 28.5 \n \n \n (24.2)% \n \n \n \n \n   \n 1  See Note 2 on page 30 for an explanation of alternative performance measures, and APM 2 on page 43 in relation to organic measures which present revenue and adjusted profit on a constant currency basis, excluding the impacts of business disposals and adjusting items.  Adjusting items are not allocated to regions for reporting purposes. For further information on these items please refer to Note 5. \n   \n Revenue performance reduced by 13.9% to £163.9 million (2024: £190.4 million) reflecting foreign exchange headwinds of £5.4 million, the £4.4 million impact of the Q1 2024 disposal of the Dongguan facility in China and a decline in organic revenue generation of 9.2% to £163.9 million (2024: £180.6 million). This organic revenue decline reflects reduced demand from certain EMS customers in the Healthcare and A&E sectors, which were impacted by continued geopolitical and other related uncertainties. \n   \n Adjusted operating profit was £21.6 million (2024: £28.5 million) representing a decline of 24.2%. This reflects lower volumes, costs associated with redundancy and the customer transfer programme, foreign exchange headwinds of £1.1 million, and the impact of the Q1 2024 Dongguan disposal. On an organic basis the decline was 20.3%. The adjusted operating margin was 13.2% (2024: 15.0%). \n   \n On a statutory basis, Asia posted an operating profit of £21.6 million (2024: £28.5 million), which was down 24.2% on the prior year. \n   \n The project to transfer key customer programmes from Suzhou to the Kuantan facility was successfully completed during the year, positioning the site to commence mass production volumes in 2026. Kuantan continues to invest in capability, supply chain resilience and production capacity to support future regional growth. \n   \n Order intake in the Asia region was down compared to the prior year, reflecting softer end-market demand and the unwinding of safety stock built ahead of the customer transfer from Suzhou to Malaysia. The region has strengthened local business development capability in response to the regionalisation of customer supply chains, where TT is well placed to support Asia-for-Asia demand. Growing revenues in the region remains a key focus, with several significant customer wins secured during the year. The book to bill ratio for the region in 2025 was up marginally at 91%, compared to 88% in 2024. \n   \n Operationally, Kuantan made further progress in preparation for higher volumes, including strengthening the supplier base, expanding warehouse capacity, and recruiting and training teams to support future mass production. Capability was also extended to support intercompany cable assembly growth, alongside the upgrade of warehouse facilities to support EMS growth. \n   \n This year marked 25 years and 50 years of operations at Suzhou and Kuantan sites, respectively, as well as the celebration of 25 years as part of TT Electronics. Notable wins in the period include: \n   \n ·      Suzhou secured a multi-year, new business award from a long-standing A&E customer to supply eight assemblies in total, with production expected to ramp up in the second half of 2026. \n   \n ·      Our Kuantan facility was awarded three new contracts for PCBA requirements from a long-standing customer in the life science sector. TT already provides manufacturing for this customer at locations in Suzhou, Cleveland, and most recently, Mexicali. The customer's selection of this location and entrusting TT is a testament to the partnership and proven performance of TT teams globally. \n   \n ·      Suzhou has been awarded a new three-year contract by a leading medical imaging equipment provider. The award will see Suzhou provide multiple PCBAs supporting a new product design, demonstrating our success in developing valuable customer relationships - enabling us to secure positions on new, medical equipment innovations. \n   \n ·      A longtime customer in the industrial label and printing sector has awarded Suzhou a three-year contract for PCBA and sub-assemblies supporting the textile industry. This order reflects our ability to support this strategic account globally with prototype and NPI capabilities, while leveraging the Group's best-cost geographies. \n   \n   \n   \n CAUTIONARY STATEMENT \n This report contains forward-looking statements.

The prior year \"loss for the period\" and \"restructuring costs and non-underlying asset impairments and remeasurements\" have been re-presented to ensure consistency with the presentation of the consolidated income statement. These revisions do not impact any other balances or sub-totals in this primary statement. \n   \n \n \n \n TT Electronics Plc \n Results for the year ended 31 December 2025 \n   \n 1 General information \n The information set out below, which does not constitute full financial statements, is extracted from the audited financial statements \n ·      was approved by the Directors on 24 March 2026; \n ·      have been reported on by the Group's auditor, their report was unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of emphasis and did not contain statements under s498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006; \n ·      will be available to the shareholders and the public in April 2026; and \n ·      will be filed with the Registrar of Companies following the Annual General Meeting. \n   \n While the financial information included in this preliminary announcement has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of UK adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (\"IFRSs\") adopted pursuant to IFRSs as issued by the IASB, this announcement does not itself contain sufficient information to comply with IFRSs. The Company expects to publish full financial statement that comply with IFRSs during April 2026. \n   \n 2 Basis of preparation \n Going concern \n Following a challenging year for the Group in 2024, 2025 has been a year of transition with improved operational performance, particularly in the second half. There was strong performance in Europe, driven by continued momentum in Aerospace & Defence. Whilst challenging market conditions have persisted in North America and Asia, actions were taken during 2025 and are expected to support improved performance as market conditions stabilise. Production at the Plano site ceased at the end of the year as planned and the Group has seen continued improvement at the Cleveland facility. Cash generation continues to be strong, with full year cash conversion at 150%, reducing the level of net debt, excluding lease liabilities, to £50.3 million (2024: £80.1 million). The Group enters 2026 with strengthened operational discipline and is anticipating structural growth in our end markets. The Group has begun implementing a targeted cost reduction programme to support a leaner operating model to deliver annualised savings. \n   \n Financing \n At 31 December 2025 the Group's financial position was strong with access to total borrowing facilities of £265.3 million comprising: \n   \n ·      A £162.4 million committed revolving credit facility (\"RCF\"), signed in June 2022 and maturing in June 2027. The RCF operates on a floating rate basis tied to GBP SONIA, USD SOFR, or EURIBOR, depending on the loan currency. As at 31 December 2025, £14.5 million of the available £162.4 million RCF facility had been drawn down. In March 2026 the Group signed an Amend & Extend agreement which extends the RCF maturity to June 2028 and reduces the facility size to £105.0 million. \n ·      A £75.0 million fixed-rate loan issued in December 2021 to three institutional investors, evenly split between 7- and 10-year maturities, with an average interest rate of 3.65 per cent; and \n ·      £27.9 million in uncommitted facilities (being overdraft lines and an accordion facility of £17.6 million). \n   \n Of these total facilities, the Group had drawn down on £89.5 million as at 31 December 2025 and £85.5 million as at 23 March 2026. \n   \n There are no required repayments of principal amounts on any financing prior to the revised RCF maturity in 2028. Whilst drawdowns on existing facilities are required within the going concern review period, none of the Company's forecast models show any requirement for any additional financing beyond the existing committed facilities. \n   \n Financial covenants \n The Group's key financing facilities, the RCF and the fixed rate loans have the same financial covenant metrics relating to debt and interest cover which measures EBITDA against net debt and net interest. The loan agreements set these at a maximum debt cover of 3.0 times and a minimum interest cover of 4.0 times. All covenants are measured on a last twelve months basis. Following the negotiations to extend the RCF facility, covenant measures remain unchanged. \n   \n As of 31 December 2025 the calculated ratios for the financial covenants as defined in the loan agreements were as follows: \n   \n ·      Leverage ratio of 1.1 times; and \n ·      Interest cover of 5.6 times \n   \n \n   \n TT Electronics Plc \n Results for the year ended 31 December 2025 \n   \n 2 Basis of preparation continued \n Forecasts and covenant compliance \n The Group has prepared and reviewed detailed cash flow forecasts for the period through until 30 June 2027. These forecasts take into account the Group's financial position and potential impacts of principal risks on different divisions. \n   \n Key assumptions in the Group's financial projections for this period include revenue growth, operating profit growth and working capital projections. The Board considers the Company's base case scenario to be an appropriate base case for the going concern assessment. Under this base case scenario, the Group retains sufficient liquidity and covenant headroom throughout the forecast period, with both interest cover and leverage expected to remain well within covenant limits. \n   \n The Group's financial projections have been stress-tested against \"business as usual\" risks (such as profit fluctuations, supply chain pressures, and working capital variances) as well as principal risks, including IT systems and information, resilience and recovery, general revenue reduction, geopolitical and research and development. These risks were analysed both individually and collectively, assuming that all adversely impact EBITDA in all periods. Under the stress tested modelling, the liquidity headroom within the group remains adequate throughout the forecast period. Financial covenants continue to be in compliance under the stress tested model and management have a number of mitigating actions which could be undertaken if required. \n   \n This severe downside scenario reduces EBITDA by £6.9 million, £10.8 million and £10.6 million for the six months to 30 June 2026, year ended 31 December 2026 and 12 months to 30 June 2027, respectively. At these levels of EBITDA reduction, the modelling shows that the Group continues to meet the financial covenants and therefore the modelling shows that severe downside scenario passing the financial covenants. \n   \n In addition to the stress tests described above the Group's stress test scenario has been sensitised for supply chain challenges and capacity constraints which shows a reduction in revenue and operating profit compared to the latest forecast. Despite this further reduction these projections show that the Group should remain within its facilities headroom and within bank covenants for the twelve months following the approval of these financial statements. A \"reverse\" stress-test was also modelled to understand the conditions which could jeopardise the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern including assessing against covenant testing and facility headroom. The stress testing also considered mitigating actions which the Group could put in place. Mitigating actions included limiting capital expenditure and reducing controllable costs including items such as discretionary bonuses and pay rises. The reverse stress test is deemed to have a remote likelihood. \n   \n The Group's wide geographical and sector diversification helps minimise the risk of serious business interruption or catastrophic reputational damage. Furthermore, the business model is structured so that the Group is not overly reliant on any single customer, market or geography. \n   \n In the prior year, the Directors identified and disclosed a material uncertainty over going concern. This material uncertainty arose in part due to emerging geopolitical and macroeconomic risks, including uncertainty from the proposed US tariff regime. These risks were fast moving at the date of signing the 2024 financial statements with an elevated prospect of a global recession and stress in the debt market. \n   \n During 2025 the tariff position has settled with greater certainty over the potential impact on the Group. The Group's geographical diversification and customer spread mean that the direct impact of tariffs is limited and can be mitigated through management action (for example transfer of production between sites). The Group has been successful in reducing its level of borrowings (see above) and now has significant headroom over covenant limits throughout the forecast period. The Group also made significant operational progress with improvements in the previously underperforming Cleveland site and ceasing production at the unprofitable Plano site improving forecast confidence.  The result of these developments during the year, along with forecast downside and stress testing, have informed the Directors' assessment that there are no material uncertainties in relation to going concern at the date of signing the 2025 financial statements. \n   \n The Directors have assessed the future funding requirements of the Group with due regard to the risks and uncertainties to which the Group is exposed and compared them with the level of available borrowing facilities and are satisfied that the Group has adequate resources for at least twelve months from the date of signing. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. \n   \n Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty \n In the application of the Group's accounting policies the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. \n   \n The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experiences and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. \n   \n The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. \n   \n \n \n   \n TT Electronics Plc \n Results for the year ended 31 December 2025 \n   \n 2 Basis of preparation continued \n The Directors have assessed that there is currently no material impact arising from climate change on the judgements and estimates determining the valuations within the financial statements. In particular, the Group considered the impact of climate change in respect of going concern and viability of the Group over the next three years, forecast cash flows for the purposes of impairment assessments of non-current assets and the useful lives of certain assets. Whilst there is currently little short to medium-term impact expected from climate change, the Directors are aware of the changing nature of risks associated with climate change and will regularly assess these risks against judgements and estimates made in preparation of the Group's Consolidated Financial Statements. \n Critical judgements \n In the course of preparing the Financial Statements, critical judgements within the scope of paragraph 122 of IAS 1: \"Presentation of Financial Statements\" were made during the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. These are outlined below. \n   \n Adjusting items \n Judgements were required as to whether items were disclosed as adjusting, with consideration given to both quantitative and qualitative factors. Further information about the determination of adjusting items in the year ended 31 December 2025 is included on pages 32 to 33 . \n   \n Key sources of estimation uncertainty \n Assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below. \n   \n •       Note 7 - Taxation provisions. Provisions for tax contingencies require management to make judgements and estimates in relation to tax authority audits and exposures. Amounts accrued are based on management's interpretation of country-specific tax law and the likelihood of settlement. Tax benefits are not recognised unless the tax positions are probable of being sustained. Once considered to be probable, management reviews each material tax benefit to assess whether a provision should be taken against full recognition of the benefit on the basis of potential settlement through negotiation and/or litigation. These amounts are expected to be utilised or to reverse as tax audits occur or as the statute of limitations is reached in the respective countries concerned. The Group's current tax liability at 31 December 2025 includes tax provisions of £12.2 million (2024: £10.4 million). The Group believes the range of reasonable possible outcomes in respect of these exposures is tax liabilities of up to £16.0 million (2024: £13.9 million). \n   \n •       Note 7 - Deferred tax assets. Under IAS 12 a deferred tax asset can only be recognised if it is considered probable that the business will achieve a net taxable profit in the near future to utilise the deferred tax asset. Management determined that the five-year forward looking strategic plan does not support full recovery of all deferred tax assets within the US, in the North America segment. \n   \n As a result, the Group derecognised deferred tax assets of £2.7 million (2024: £16.0 million), and did not recognise a deferred tax asset in respect of current year losses, leaving deferred tax assets of £7.6 million (2024: £9.2 million) which offset against the US deferred tax liabilities. The charge was recognised in items excluded from adjusted profit after tax (note 5). Should recovery of these US deferred tax assets become probable this would cause the Group to recognise up to an additional £18.7 million (2024: £16.0 million) of deferred tax assets and a credit would be recognised in items excluded from adjusted profit. A further £7.9 million of deferred tax assets in respect of current year losses could also be recognised. \n   \n •       Note 5 - Property, plant and equipment. Determining whether assets are impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the entities within the Group. Impairment calculations require an estimation of the future cash flows to be generated from those assets. Future cash flows are a key source of estimation uncertainty and are derived from other estimates including a suitable discount rate to calculate the present value. \n   \n During the year, property, plant and equipment at one North American site was impaired by £0.8 million which was recognised in items excluded from adjusted operating profit. This site, which holds property, plant and equipment with a net book value of £6.5 million, is currently loss making and, if it does not return to profitability there would be a further impairment up to the residual value of the asset. A 15 per cent decrease in the estimated future cashflow at this site would result in an additional impairment of £1.0 million. A 12 per cent increase in future cashflows would have resulted in no impairment at the site. Should the site see an increase in cash flows in the future, the impairment will be reversed. \n   \n \n \n   \n TT Electronics Plc \n Results for the year ended 31 December 2025 \n   \n 2 Basis of preparation continued \n Alternative performance measures \n The Group presents Alternative Performance Measures (\"APMs\") in addition to the statutory results of the Group. These are presented in accordance with the guidelines on APMs issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (\"ESMA\"). \n   \n Adjusted operating profit has been defined as operating profit from continuing operations excluding the impacts of significant restructuring programmes, significant one-off items including property disposals, impairment charges significant in nature and/or value, certain one-off pension costs, business acquisition, integration, and divestment related activity, and the amortisation of intangible assets recognised on acquisition. Acquisition and disposal related items include the writing off of the pre-acquisition profit element of inventory written up on acquisition, other direct costs associated with business combinations and adjustments to contingent consideration related to acquired businesses. Restructuring includes cost of management changes, significant costs associated with restructuring operations and facilities, including the movement and closure of production facilities. Costs associated with restructuring, acquisitions and disposals are uncertain with regard to their timing and size and therefore their inclusion within operating profit could mislead the reader of these accounts. Adjusted operating profit is not a defined term under IFRS and may not be comparable with similarly titled profit measures reported by other companies. It is not intended to be a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP measures. All APMs relate to the current year results and comparative years where provided. \n   \n In addition to the items above, adjusting items impacting profit after tax include: \n   \n •  The net effect on tax of significant restructuring from strategy changes that are not considered by the Group to be part of the normal operating costs of the business; \n •  The write off of deferred tax assets in North America; and \n •  The tax effects of adjustments to profit before tax. \n   \n These APMs have been selected by the Directors to assist them in making operating decisions because they represent the underlying operating performance of the Group and facilitate internal comparisons of performance over time. \n   \n Alongside the statutory results, the Directors consider the adjusted results to be an important measure used to monitor how the businesses are performing as this provides a meaningful reflection of how the businesses are managed and measured on a day-to-day basis and achieves consistency and comparability between reporting periods. \n   \n   \n 3 Segmental reporting \n The Group is organised into three regions, as shown below. Each of these regions represents an operating segment in accordance with IFRS 8 'Operating segments' and there is no aggregation of segments. The chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer. The operating segments are: \n   \n ·      Europe - the Europe segment encompasses all the Group's European operations comprising the manufacturing sites in Sheffield, Bedlington, Manchester, Barnstaple, Nottingham, Abercynon, Fairford and Eastleigh as well as the European sales offices. The regional segment is supported by a leadership team who have functional responsibilities that span the individual entities within the business; \n   \n ·      North America - the North America segment encompasses all the Group's North American operations comprising Juarez, Mexicali, Dallas, Minneapolis, Kansas, Denver, Cleveland and Boston. The regional segment is supported by a leadership team who have functional responsibilities that span the individual entities within the business; \n   \n ·      Asia - the Asia segment encompasses all the Group's Asian operations comprising the manufacturing sites in Suzhou and Kuantan and the Singapore sales office. The regional segment is supported by a leadership team who have functional responsibilities that span the individual entities within the business. \n   \n The key performance measure of the operating segments is adjusted operating profit. Refer to the section titled 'Reconciliation of KPIs and non-IFRS Measures' for a definition of adjusted operating profit. \n   \n Corporate costs - Resources and costs of the head office managed centrally but deployed in support of the operating units are allocated to segments based on a combination of revenue and adjusted operating profit. \n   \n Resources and costs of the head office which are not related to the operating activities of the trading units are not allocated to regions and are separately disclosed, equivalent to the segment disclosure information, so that reporting is consistent with the format that is used for review by the chief operating decision maker. This gives greater transparency of the adjusted operating profit s for each segment. \n   \n The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Group's accounting policies. \n   \n TT Electronics Plc \n Results for the year ended 31 December 2025 \n   \n 3 Segmental reporting continued \n Group financing (including finance costs and finance income) and income taxes are managed on a Group basis and are not allocated to operating segments. Goodwill is allocated to the segments which comprise groups of cash generating units as this is the level at which goodwill is monitored. \n   \n a) Income statement information \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n   \n \n \n   \n \n \n   \n \n \n   \n \n \n   \n \n \n 2025 \n \n \n \n \n £million \n \n \n Europe \n \n \n North America \n \n \n Asia \n \n \n Total Operating Segments \n \n \n Central \n \n \n Total \n \n \n \n \n Sales to external customers \n \n \n 144.4 \n \n \n 173.1 \n \n \n 163.9 \n \n \n 481.4 \n \n \n - \n \n \n 481.4 \n \n \n \n \n Adjusted operating profit \n \n \n 22.1 \n \n \n 1.2 \n \n \n 21.6 \n \n \n 44.9 \n \n \n (7.7) \n \n \n 37.2 \n \n \n \n \n Add back: adjustments made to operating profit (note 5) 1 \n \n \n - \n \n \n (17.3) \n \n \n - \n \n \n (17.3) \n \n \n (48.1) \n \n \n (65.4) \n \n \n \n...
