Energy Technologies Limited 3Q FY2025 Quarterly
Activities Report and Appendix 4C
Key highlights:
Quarterly cash receipts of A$2.193m, down 6.8% on the preceding quarter;
and
Net Cash operating outflows of A$939k, up 37.5% on the previous quarter.
Energy Technologies Limited (ASX: EGY or “the Company”), is pleased to release its
Quarterly Activities Report and Appendix 4C Quarterly Cash Flow Report for the period ended
31st March 2025 (“3Q FY2025”).
Cash receipts for the quarter were 6.8% lower than 2Q FY2025, the results are consistent with
management expectations as the Board continues to review opportunities to appropriately and
sustainably resource the Company’s robust order and tender book.
Through disciplined management, EGY has maintained both value and margin in the order
book during 3Q FY2025 and is a demonstrated positive outcome of the revised business plan
strategy communicated to the Market in the September 2024 EGY Investor Presentation. The
benefits of this strategy will be further unlocked upon finalisation of the review and adoption of
a balanced capital structure, contained therein said Presentation, which permits the Company
to fully realise the business plan trajectory.
At the conclusion of 3Q FY2025 the Company maintained unused financing facilities of c.
A$7.8m which included c. A$890k net proceeds from the additional funding received in 3Q
FY2025. Whereas the facility headroom is adequate to support the execution of the current
order book, the Board does not consider the type of facilities to be appropriate to support the
longer-term funding of an upscaled order and tender book. Consequently, tendering activity
has been curtailed pending implementation of a capital structure which complements the step
change in the working capital requirements of the business and in this respect the Board is
actively evaluating those capital management opportunities presented.
ASX Listing Rule 4.7C.3
