Interim condensed financial statements - nine months ended 31/12/2024

· Issued by Windforce Plc

MANAGING DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE

Dear stakeholders,

We are pleased to present the Interim Report for the period ended 31st December 2024, highlighting WindForce PLC's strong financial performance, sectoral growth, and key milestones.

Financial Performance:

WindForce PLC recorded consolidated revenue of LKR 5.37 billion, reflecting a 16% year-on-year increase from LKR 4.62 billion in 2023. EBITDA grew by 37% to LKR 5.07 billion, up from LKR 3.69 billion in the previous year. Net profit surged to LKR 2.05 billion, marking a 22% increase, driven by the commissioning of the Hiruras 15MW Wind Power Plant (June/July 2023) and the Kebitigollewa 10MW Solar Plant (July 2024). Additionally, income from CEB's Standard Power Purchase Agreement contributed LKR 708 million.

Sectoral Performance:

  • Wind Sector: Revenue grew by 7%, primarily due to the Hiruras wind plant addition. However, some wind plants saw a decline in electricity revenue due to lower wind speeds and operational issues.
  • Solar Sector: The solar segment posted a 15% revenue growth, supported by the Kebitigollewa Solar Plant and the acquisition of Solar Universe in August 2024.
  • Hydro Sector: The hydro sector demonstrated remarkable 44% revenue growth, driven by the Mahoma acquisition (January 2024), adding LKR 269 million in revenue. Terraqua Kokawita also saw a 35% increase in power generation due to higher rainfall. However, revenue for Terraqua International and Peak Power declined as they entered the next operational tariff phase.

New Project Developments:

1. Rividhanavi 100MW Solar Project - Siyambalanduwa

• Engineering and design work in progress.

• Transmission line foundations 60% and Tower erection 20% completed.

• Project financing finalized.

• minor delays in land lease agreements.

2. Sooryashakthi 10MW Solar Project

  • Over 50% of module structures completed.
  • Delivery of key equipment underway, ensuring on- schedule progress.

Awards & Recognitions:

WindForce PLC's commitment to excellence and sustainability was recognized with multiple industry accolades:

  • CMA Excellence in Integrated Reporting Awards 2024
    - First Runner-Up in the Power/Electricity Sector and Certificate of Compliance.
  • TAGS Awards 2024 - Certificate of Recognition for Sustainability Reporting and Certificate of Compliance in the Power & Energy Sector.

Conclusion:

This quarter marks strong financial growth, strategic sectoral expansion, and continued leadership in renewable energy. WindForce PLC remains dedicated to sustainable energy solutions, enhancing shareholder value, and driving long-term industry growth.

Sincerely,

Manjula Perera

Managing Director
