CHAIRMAN & CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Executive Chairman's Statement
In my perspective, effective management entails drawing wisdom from historical experiences and ensuring that
past successes drive the agenda for the future. As of July 2022, Sabien confronted a business landscape
marked by uncertainties, with the looming challenge of rising inflation casting a long shadow.
As the year progressed, it became increasingly evident that a significant shift was underway, characterized by
higher interest rates and subdued economic growth.
To heed the lessons of history is to embrace the age-old wisdom that 'it is better to light a candle than to curse
the darkness.' Throughout the preceding financial year, Sabien not only fortified the robust foundations
established in previous years but also embarked on the creation of new ones, underpinning our future growth.
We understand that lower interest rates and a swift return to robust economic growth may remain elusive.
Consequently, we have diligently crafted a resilient business platform capable of self-sustained growth.
During the year ended 30 June 2023, Sabien's Green Aggregation Strategy has focussed primarily on two
principal technology led initiatives. M2G, the existing Sabien CO2 mitigation device for commercial boilers, and
the City Oil Field Inc. ("COF") plastic to oil technology.
Sabien's financial results for the year ended 30 June 2023, serve as a compelling testament to our progress in
these endeavours. Our revenue rose by an impressive 62%, propelled by the enduring success of our flagship
product, M2G, and the increasing growth of our Cloud Solutions division. With a promising pipeline of deferred
and forward orders, we eagerly anticipate sustained expansion in the current fiscal year. Our strategic initiatives,
exemplified by the expansion of our Cloud-enabled gas boiler energy-saving solution into the United States,
underscore the compelling long-term prospects of M2G.
In tandem with these developments, our collaboration with COF has continued to evolve, with a significant focus
on optimizing the deployment of this world-leading technology. This collaborative approach ensures the
construction of robust foundations for the autonomous development of this pivotal business line, all while
nurturing a productive working relationship with COF.
We have shared the development of these initiatives with shareholders and the wider market throughout the
period. In support of them, and our continuing development, the Company raised £0.6m through a placing and
broker option in August 2022 and at the same time £0.1m of a loan advanced by my family interests was also
capitalised. This fundraise provided the Company with the wherewithal to secure the opportunities presented to
it, for the benefit of shareholders and stakeholders alike.
Successful growth-oriented enterprises are built on sturdy foundations. Sabien's unwavering commitment to
introducing innovative solutions to enduring challenges and our readiness to adapt as circumstances evolve
have further fortified the bedrock upon which our growth firmly stands.
M2G Business
Despite the continuing world semiconductor supply shortage and the overall weakness of the UK economy
driven by inflationary pressures, the Board is very pleased with the growth of the new M2G Cloud business.
During the 2023 financial year, M2G Cloud Solutions revenue of £0.96m was achieved (2022: £0.56m).  In
addition, the Company has deferred revenue of £0.20m, and open orders of £0.10m, that will carry over into
FY24.  In total, at the year end M2G has 2024 revenue identified and charged, but not yet booked, of £0.3m
(2023 £0.3m). The majority of the deferred revenue is also recurring cloud services revenue.  At year end annual
recurring cloud services revenue to be billed in 2024 had increased to £0.13m (2022: £0.02m).
As M2G continues to develop the available customer base for its applications, it is focused also on the cost of
providing them. Specifically, we are pleased to report strong progress in the development of the M2G Evo. This
next generation development combines three devices that Sabien had to previously procure separately; the
M2G, the M2G Cloud dongle, and the M2G Interface box.  
Page 4

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
CHAIRMAN & CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
In combination, with updated technology interfaces, we expect a cost reduction of up to 50% on the current
separate cost of all three devices. Additionally, it should be noted that the M2G Interface box is not required on
all boiler installations, further enhancing the cost of deployment.  M2G Evo will also be easier for the Company to
procure because it is designed around a more readily available base processor (Raspberry Pi Module). M2G has
procured its first batch of production devices for market testing and expects the M2G Evo to become the
Company’s sole M2G product by 2024.  
M2G Cloud connect delivers the savings visibly across all client estate buildings locally and globally and has the
enhanced capability to provide industry unique plant analytics. Engineers can now review their plant and controls
performance holistically with objective data. Solving visible and invisible issues to maximise their plant efficiency
and performance.
With the delivery of M2G EVO, a reduced product footprint will be achieved. In place, this should allow the Group
to review the opportunity for SAP approval. Installations within residential settings continue, with one installation,
a 48-apartment building completed during June 2023, delivering 16% savings over the summer period.
COF / b.grn Business
COF is a South Korean business that has developed an innovative proprietary technology – Regenerated Green
Oil (RGO), which focuses on the production of light and ultra-pure fuel products from low temperature
processing of end of life plastics using a proprietary catalyst.  In December 2021 Sabien established a special
purpose vehicle with my family office, Parris Group Limited, to rollout the technology in the Western hemisphere:
b.grn Group Limited (b.grn).
On 2 November 2022 Sabien announced that b.grn and COF had signed a contract for the first RGO plant in the
UK. The agreement remains subject to agreeing terms on the first site and securing funding, but if these terms
are satisfied it should result in commission to Sabien of approximately US$1m. 
Following a first visit in the last financial year, Sabien executives made a further visit to South Korea during the
year under review, in conjunction with a major US oil trading business to carry out technical due diligence.
During the visit a significant Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") between b.grn, COF, Hanyang Corporation
("Hanyang"), and Woori Technology Inc. This MOU established the intent of the parties to jointly deliver a
Recycling Cluster Project for a site in the Midlands region of the UK. The collaboration with these key partners
strengthens b.grn's position in the waste plastic recycling sector.
The Group is pivoting away from its proposed Midlands (UK) site and has negotiated Heads of Terms for another
location. This is in response to pressure on local authority finances and the consequent uncertainty created
around local waste management priorities.
In addition, COF executives made a return visit with the Korean Environment Agency (KECO) in April 2023.  The
return visit resulted in two additional key agreements being signed between Sabien, b.grn, and COF:
1)
MOU between Sabien, Parris Group and COF in relation to restructuring of b.grn; and
2)
Sabien - COF Intellectual Property Agreement.
These two agreements set out steps to prepare b.grn for investment by sharing ownership with COF, by giving
b.grn manufacturing rights and rights to buy catalyst, an option to invest in COF, and rights to undertake a
research project with leading UK universities.  
During the year, there was no repeat of the management fees charged to b.grn in 2022 of £0.15m, comprising
Sabien board time managing the project and the recharge of professional fees incurred. However, the proposed
restructuring of b.grn will involve additional fees being charged of up to £0.35m expected to be in the forthcoming
financial year.

CHAIRMAN & CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Proton Technologies Canada Inc.
On 14 October 2021, Sabien invested £100k in Proton, giving the Company a 0.08% shareholding.
Subsequently, Sabien entered into a licensing agreement with Proton on 1 February 2022. This agreement
allowed Sabien to deploy Proton’s technology within the UK and the right to install a plant for the COF plastic to
oil technology on Proton’s Saskatchewan site. Sabien retains the rights conferred by this licensing agreement. 
On 29 September 2023 Sabien received notification that a proposal from a third party to inject new capital,
restructure its balance sheet, and reform its management team (the "Proposal") had been successful. Pending
further information from the new management team, the Board of Sabien has concluded that an impairment
provision of £99k is required at 30 June 2023 to reflect the dilution and notional value ascribed by the Proposal.
The Board considers that the Proton UK project offers strong long-term prospects for the Group but is not a
current area of focus. Sabien will continue discussions with the new management team at Proton in relation to its
option to install a COF plant at Proton's Saskatchewan site.
Aeristech investment
Sabien invested £100k in Aeristech in February 2021 at a price of £2.40 per share.  The investment was made to
support Aeristech's development of e boost technologies for hydrogen fuel cell, hybrid electric, and internal
combustion engine powertrains.  Since Sabien’s investment, Aeristech has continued to make progress in
developing its customer base and raised funds at up to £2.75 per share in February 2023. 
Financial results
In the year to 30 June 2023, the Group has generated revenue of £1.10m (2022: £0.68m), with £0.86m recorded
in the second half. An overall increase in sales in the year of 62% compared to the prior year.  Following the year
end, to date the Company has achieved sales of £0.18m to 30 September 2023 and received orders of £0.16m.
The Board considers that the prospects for the Group from its main two business lines are strong for 2024.

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
1. Review of the Group's Business
Sabien’s strategy is to provide innovative solutions, across a range of applications, to the challenges created by
the transition to net zero. Critically, this strategy is economically, not ideologically, driven. We note that the onset
of economic headwinds has questioned the timing and extent of net zero achievement across the world. We
believe that the evolution of net zero strategies will continue but that they will be more cost-conscious than in the
previous decades. Faced with a harder transition, we believe that governments, companies, and customers will
all make pragmatic choices. This pragmatism will prize innovation designed to effect transition at lower cost.
Thus, Sabien has built, and is building, a portfolio of businesses whose ambition is to facilitate net zero but
whose strategy is to do so by offering more efficient alternatives. Generating progress towards net zero cannot
be without regard to cost, particularly during a time of high inflation which looks set to remain. Through
partnership and acquisition, Sabien will continue to develop a portfolio of businesses whose success is not
dependent on achieving net zero but is clearly aligned with the transition towards this goal.
In many respects, Sabien’s success will be determined by the journey, not simply the destination. 
During the year ended 30 June 2023, the Group achieved the following milestones in its strategic development:
• 
Development of M2G Evo to commercial testing stage;
• 
Signing of first UK City Oil Field plant contract; and
• 
Signing of strategic memoranda of understanding to restructure b,grn, Sabien’s Special Purpose Vehicle 
with Parris Group, to prepare it for investment and rollout of the COF technology.
Sabien believes that operational growth cannot be the Group’s sole objective. Growth must be closely and clearly
aligned to the creation of consistent, long-term shareholder value. In order that this occurs, Sabien employs clear
investment value criteria which are deployed at the point of commitment. These criteria focus on three
fundamentals; management team strength, defendable technical advantage, and strong financial position. 
Ownership, and its concomitant control, is critical to the continued success of the business. Since incorporation,
the Group has owned the rights to M2G. This provides control over patented energy efficiency products and any
products that result from their development. The Group’s focus is the product installation on commercial boilers
and water heaters, both within the UK and overseas. Sabien subcontracts the manufacture of both products to its
principal supplier, based in Northern Ireland, and manages installations globally through a team of Sabien
engineers and trained installation partners.
Sabien believes that this control has been a key contributor to the Group’s strong reputation in its chosen
marketplace. It is regularly recognised as the market leader in Boiler Optimisation Controls, This position reflects
both the efficiency of the installed base and the innovation-led development of the products.
Background to the boiler optimisation business
Acceptance is critical to the long-term success of the Boiler Optimisation business. Historically, the Group
focused on large estates, often owned, and managed by public or quasi-public bodies. In order to achieve
penetration of this market, the Group offered paid pilots of its M2G product. This strategy proved successful with
the award of a number of multi-year multi-million-pound contracts. However, the consolidated nature of this
public market, notably at a time of public funding uncertainty, created timing issues which variability affected
profitability.  
In response, the Group is transitioning the sale of its M2G technology with the adoption of a subscription service
through channel partners who control already significant end-user infrastructure. This significantly increases
volumes and reduces sales cycle times from many months to only a few weeks.
Recognising the need to establish a broader customer base which would improve both the scale and consistency
of revenue generation, the Group has had a long-term expansion strategy. From the introduction of a rental
model option in 2018, facilitating the piloting and financing of the M2G product, through the launch of the
Page 7

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Forensic Boiler Audit (“FBA”) service, to the launch of the M2G Cloud System, the Group has achieved success
in the following key areas:
•
A greater proportion of recurring revenue;
•
Demonstrable real-time savings to customers;
•
Additional and unique boiler analytics which can and do lead to product and client development; and
•
A time-to-commercial engagement cycle which is materially shorter.
Market - Energy efficiency retrofit – Commercial Gas
Sabien believes that the nature and structure of the available market for its products is changing and that these
changes are to the Group’s advantage.
The Group’s historical customer base shared a number of key attributes:

Large individual entities such as service providers, public administrations, and industrial operations; which
use

Centralised heating and water provision; resulting in

Energy costs being a relatively small proportion of total production costs.
As a result, adoption of energy efficiency programs was constrained by low gas prices, the availability of capital,
and the lack of Automated Maintenance Reporting (AMR) in the UK built environment.
Sabien believes that these historical factors are becoming less of a constraint on adoption. 
The war in Ukraine, and the resulting attitudes of OPEC+, has created inflationary pressures in the
petrochemical market. The Group believes that these pressures are unlikely to abate in the short to medium
term. As a result, the cost of gas is now a focus for building managers and mitigation of this cost is now
important.
As the cost of heating and water provision has risen, the previous constraints on capital deployed in efficiency
programs are falling away. While capital deployment within private organisations will continue to be driven by
pay-back considerations, the rationale for conducting analyses on this basis has improved and the frequency of
such exercises is increasing. 
Within public organisations, the mandate to deliver value for money across estates and the systems therein,
notably in the aftermath of recent public body financial problems, is more prevalent than in previous years.
Sabien believes that this cost-driven approach will not focus solely on improving the efficiency of historical
systems, which M2G addresses, but will seek to embrace the evolution of new processes, such as that provided
by COF.
Thus, the combination of rising running costs and the high-profile failure of public bodies’ financial management
is likely to favour the adoption of energy efficient systems such as those provided by the Group. Capital is now
more likely to be deployed for continuous improvement than new large projects.
Other sales channels
Establishing multiple routes to market is a central tenet of the Group’s strategy to build wide and deep
foundations for revenue growth at profitable margins.
At present, the Group operates on a fully integrated basis in the UK; from sales, through installation, to efficiency
management. In the short to medium term, the Group will transition from this integrated approach to a
partnership strategy which has proved so successful in overseas markets. During the year under review, the
Group has already benefited from this transition with the announced relationships with CBRE and Empiric PLC. 
Page 8

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Outside the UK, the Group’s partnership strategy allows for the deployment of its market-leading technical
knowledge through distribution partners. These partners are involved in the supply of energy efficiency solutions
to meet their clients NetZero targets, boiler systems and controls to their customers in their own territories.
By so doing, the Group has developed key commercial relationships with the central players in energy efficient
solutions, building portfolio management, and boiler maintenance and management, removing the need to build
its own distribution and maintenance networks. In partnering, rather than competing, the Group has built solid
foundations within a constituency which is likely to remain as the key determinant of end-customer demand.
Importantly, this partnership approach has brought, and will continue to bring, important contacts which have,
and will continue, to provide further relationships consistent with the development of a wide and deep customer
base. Recent contract awards from public bodies and private organisations, notably within real estate
management, are a testament to this approach. 
Team
The Group employs its own project management and technical engineering staff who are responsible for
ensuring the smooth roll-out and quality control of each M2G pilot and installation project. Headcount currently
stands at 11.
Other Technology Development
In addition to the established boiler optimisation business, Sabien’s green aggregation strategy is also
developing two new technologies:
1. City Oil Field Inc. Plastic to Oil Business; and
2. Proton Technologies Canada Inc. – clean hydrogen production.
The Board expects both technologies over time to develop into standalone divisions of the Group.
Plastic to Oil Business
The Group’s strategy is focussed on signing the first site in the UK as a proof of concept 24 tonne per day
processing plant in conjunction with Sabien’s b.grn Group Ltd development partner. Feedstock contracts and oil
offtake discussions are in progress as key requirements to establish the first Western Hemisphere commercial
plant.
Clean Hydrogen
The Group’s strategy is focussed on locating a suitable end of life onshore oil field owner in the UK to partner in
developing a 20 tonne per day hydrogen production facility.

2. Principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group
The principal risks faced by the Group are:
•
Technology developments and competitive products;
•
Changes in legislation;
•
Supply chain issues;
•
Brand awareness and maintenance of reputation;
•
Employee retention;
•
Raising further finance;
•
UK Energy Efficiency Barriers;and
•
Insufficient financial resources to complete rollout of new product lines.
The Group places great importance on internal control and risk management. A risk-aware and control-
conscious environment is promoted and encouraged throughout the Group. The Board, either directly or through
its committees, sets objectives, performance targets and policies for management of key risks facing the Group.
The risks outlined above are not an exhaustive list of those faced by the Group and are not intended to be
presented in any order of priority. The Group holds weekly management meetings at which, inter alia, business
risks are reviewed and any areas that are causing concern are discussed. A plan of action to resolve issues is
then put in place.  Whilst many of the key risks are common across many industries, the Board has set out detail
below in relation to the energy efficiency industry specific risks that affect the Group.
UK Energy Efficiency Barriers
Information, its provision and lack of trust, misaligned financial incentives, and behaviour barriers mean energy
efficiency is undervalued. These barriers are often inter-related and work together to reduce investment in
energy efficiency.
The UK market is underdeveloped thus has relatively limited/mixed expertise and ‘know-how’ on the Client,
vendor side for energy efficiency investment.  The Group is working to develop its partner network and through
that to develop awareness within the market.
Information
One of the key characteristics of an embryonic market is there is a lack of access to trusted and appropriate
information.
Energy efficiency improvements are typically made through purchasing upgraded equipment, retro-fit technology
and additives however the biggest challenge facing the market is identifying the absolute savings in energy and
emissions which means that potential buyers are not in a position to assess the benefits of an energy efficiency
proposal.
The Group's partner led strategy and the upgraded and cloud enabled M2G has been designed to resolve these
issues.
Financing
Energy efficiency projects can be undermined by the absence of standardised monitoring and verification
processes which means that the benefits of energy efficiency investments are not trusted.
It can be difficult to relate back to individual activities to identify opportunities to make energy efficiency
improvements. In the absence of clear, trusted information, many buyers do not prioritise energy efficiency
investments.
Page 10

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Misaligned financial incentives
It is not always the case that the person who is responsible for making energy efficiency improvements will
receive the benefits of their actions.
Commercial rented tenants are responsible for their own bills and therefore it is in their interest to reduce the
bills, but contractual arrangements around landlord/tenants or facilities management may inhibit investment.
Therefore, energy efficiency investments are not prioritised as they might otherwise be. Energy costs can be a
relatively small proportion of costs for many sectors, but in aggregate that energy use is a huge ask of our
energy system.
Undervaluing energy efficiency
The lack of salience of energy efficiency increases the impact of hassle costs and behavioural barriers. Energy
efficiency changes may involve significant hassle costs for those carrying out the investment, which increases
the costs of the investment e.g. disruption caused by building works or disruption to production lines.
Energy efficiency improvements may not be seen as strategic for a company and therefore not prioritised.
Outside of the energy intensive industry sectors, energy bills are only a small proportion of business costs. If the
relative gain is small, then the hassle costs can act as a significant barrier, especially if there is uncertainty
around the benefits of the investment.  While hassle costs are not a market failure, they compound the impact of
other behavioural barriers, reducing investment in energy efficiency. This is often why companies are reluctant to
invest in energy efficiency, seeking short payback times, even if a project is cost-effective and meets Simple
Payback (SPB) criteria. Wider economic uncertainty is also reducing willingness to invest.
3. Performance of the business in the financial year
Business Development - UK
The Group achieved sales in the year of £1.10m (2022: £0.68m).  Overseas customers contributed £0.07m of
sales representing 6% of the total for the year. 
Business Development - Overseas
Sabien markets, sells, and installs M2G internationally through a network of partners. The Group employs this
strategy to both mitigate cost exposure and to benefit from its partners’ commercial relationships within the
specific territories.  This network requires a level of M2G operational support in the transfer of knowledge and
the sharing of product training.
Sabien has developed the following criteria to select appropriate partners:
•
An existing client base, supported by an established distribution network, within the commercial and 
industrial heating sector;
•
Demonstrable engineering capability and capacity; and
•
Clear competence in commercial boiler maintenance and management, together with a current offering 
within energy efficient solutions within products and services.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
4. Key Performance Indicators ("KPIs")
The Group has identified a number of financial and non financial key performance indicators which are regularly
monitored to ensure that business is on track or to give warning where problems may be arising:
Financial: The management’s focus is on the development of sales, the maintenance of a healthy gross margin
and prudent cost control. The two main performance indicators are sales achieved and gross profit margin.
During the year the Group achieved revenue of £1.10m (2022: £0.68m) and the gross profit margin was 64.0%
(2022: 66.0%). Gross margin continues to be below Group targets due to high cloud service costs not being fully
recovered and increasing parts costs.  The launch of M2G Evo in 2024 is expected to improve gross margin.
Non-financial: The Group’s reputation for project management and delivery of its product’s benefits on time and
within budget is key to its continuing business success. Management is always looking at improving the quality of
the Group’s performance and will continue to invest in products and solutions to enable it to maintain and
enhance its reputation.  There are no non-financial KPIs that need to be disclosed.
5. Strategy and future developments
The Group intends to invest for growth in the following areas:
•
Completion of next generation M2G device integrating remote commercial boiler management within a 
single Cloud-enabled device;
•
Development of the key US market through Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) relationships;
•
Maintaining a network of overseas distribution partners to deliver material revenue for the Group;
•
Maintaining or exceeding an installation capacity in line with Company forecasts and to continue 
providing our clients and partners with a world class project management service and experience;
•
Maintaining brand awareness and reputation of the Group;
•
Acquisitions of compatible businesses within ‘green energy’ environmental opportunities; and
•
Licensing of relevant green energy technologies.
This report was approved by the board on 1 November 2023 and signed on its behalf.

Principle Three
Considering wider stakeholder and social responsibilities
The Board recognises that the long-term success of the Company is reliant upon the efforts of the employees of
the Company and its contractors, suppliers, regulators and other stakeholders. The Board has put in place a
range of processes and systems to ensure that there is close oversight and contact with its key resources and
relationships. For example, a companywide internal information system shares live information on key suppliers,
customers and projects, allowing the Company to efficiently fulfil customer requirements. Furthermore, all
Page 13

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
employees of the Company participate in an annual assessment process which is designed to ensure that there
is an open and confidential dialogue with each person in the Company to promote successful two-way
communication with agreement on goals, targets and aspirations of the employee and the Company. These
feedback processes help to ensure that the Company can respond to new issues and opportunities that arise to
further the success of employees and the Company. The Company has close ongoing relationships with a broad
range of its stakeholders and provides them with the opportunity to raise issues and provide feedback to the
Company.
Principle Four

Audit Committee
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the Group’s system of internal control and for reviewing its
effectiveness. The purpose of the system of internal control is to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure
to achieve business objectives and can only provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material
misstatement or loss.
The Directors have established an organisational structure with clear operating procedures, and lines of
responsibility. In particular, any capital investment requires a business case to be presented to and approved by
Page 14

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
the Board. Financial reporting is carried out within a comprehensive financial planning and accounting framework
with oversight by the Audit Committee. The Board has reviewed the need for an internal audit function and
concluded that such a function is not currently appropriate given the size of the Group.
Principle Five
A Well-Functioning Board of Directors
As at the date hereof the Board comprised the Executive Chairman, Richard Parris, Chief Financial Officer and
Executive Director Edward Sutcliffe, and the Non-Executive Directors, Charles Goodfellow, and Ranald
McGregor-Smith.
Biographical details of the current Directors are set out within Principle Six.
Executive and Non-Executive Directors retire by rotation in accordance with the Company’s Articles of
Association which prescribe that at every Annual General Meeting one third of the directors for the time being or,
if their number is not a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not exceeding one third, shall retire from
office. Non-executive directors are initially appointed for a three year term but their appointment is terminable by
either party on three months’ written notice. The letters of appointment of all Directors are available for inspection
at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.
The Board meets at least six times per annum. It has established an Audit Committee, a Remuneration
Committee, a Nominations Committee and a Risk Committee, the particulars of which appear hereafter. The
Executive and Non-Executive Directors are considered to be part time but are expected to provide as much time
to the Company as is required. The Board considers that this is appropriate given the Company’s current stage
of operations. It shall continue to monitor the need to match resources to its operational performance and costs
and the matter will be kept under review going forward. Charles Goodfellow and Ranald McGregor-Smith are
considered to be Independent Directors by the Board. The Board shall review further appointments as scale and
complexity grows.
Attendance at Board and Committee Meetings
The Company shall report annually on the number of Board and committee meetings held during the year and
the attendance record of individual Directors.  In order to be efficient, the Directors meet formally and informally
both in person and by telephone. The following table shows attendance of the directors at Board and Audit
Committee meetings.

Principle Six
Appropriate Skills and Experience of the Directors
The Board currently consists of four Directors. The Company believes that the current balance of skills in the
Board as a whole, reflects a very broad range of commercial and professional skills across geographies and
industries and each of the Directors has experience in public markets.
Page 15

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023

whether formal or informal.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Principle Seven
Evaluation of Board Performance
Internal evaluation of the Board, and individual Directors will be undertaken on an annual basis in the form of
peer appraisal and discussions to determine the effectiveness and performance as well as the Directors'
continued independence.
The results and recommendations that come out of the appraisals for the directors shall identify the key
corporate and financial targets that are relevant to each Director and their personal targets in terms of career
development and training. Progress against previous targets shall also be assessed where relevant.
Principle Eight
Corporate Culture
The Board recognises that their decisions regarding strategy and risk will impact the corporate culture of the
Company as a whole and that this will impact the performance of the Company. The Board is very aware that the
tone and culture set by the Board will greatly impact all aspects of the Company as a whole and the way that
employees behave. The corporate governance arrangements that the Board has adopted are designed to
ensure that the Company delivers long term value to its shareholders and that shareholders have the opportunity
to express their views and expectations for the Company in a manner that encourages open dialogue with the
Board.  A large part of the Company's activities is centred upon what needs to be an open and respectful
dialogue with employees, clients and other stakeholders. Therefore, the importance of sound ethical values and
behaviours is crucial to the ability of the Company to successfully achieve its corporate objectives. The Board
places great importance on this aspect of corporate life and seeks to ensure that this flows through all that the
Company does.  The directors consider that at present the Company has an open culture facilitating
comprehensive dialogue and feedback and enabling positive and constructive challenge. The Company has
adopted, with effect from the date on which its shares were admitted to AIM, a code for Directors' and
employees' dealings in securities which is appropriate for a company whose securities are traded on AIM and is
in accordance with the requirements of the Market Abuse Regulation.
Principle Nine
Maintenance of Governance Structures and Processes
Ultimate authority for all aspects of the Company’s activities rests with the Board, the respective responsibilities
of the Executive Chairman arising as a consequence of delegation by the Board. The Board has adopted
appropriate delegations of authority which set out matters which are reserved to the Board. The Executive
Chairman is responsible for the effectiveness of the Board, primary contact with shareholders, and oversight of
management of the Company’s business.
Audit Committee
Since January 2021, the Audit Committee has been chaired by Charles Goodfellow who is supported by Ranald
McGregor-Smith. This committee meets twice a year. It is responsible for making recommendations to the Board
on the appointment of auditors and the audit fee, for reviewing the conduct and control of the annual audit and
for reviewing the operation of the internal financial controls. It also has responsibility for the reporting of the
financial performance of the Group and for reviewing financial statements prior to publication.
The auditors of the Group are Moore Kingston Smith LLP ("MKS") who have served the Company since it was
founded.  MKS have regularly rotated the audit engagement partner.  The Committee view is that MKS have
served the Group well.   The Committee has therefore concluded that to date it has not been necessary to re-
tender the audit.
The key issues that the Committee reviewed in the year was the going concern assumption; and the carrying
value of assets.

interest of shareholders. The Remuneration Committee shall also determine the allocation of share options to
employees. It is a rule of the Remuneration Committee that a Director shall not participate in discussions or
decisions concerning his/her own remuneration.
Nominations Committee
Since January 2021, the Nominations Committee has been chaired by Ranald McGregor-Smith who is supported
by Charles Goodfellow. The Nominations Committee meets to review the size, structure and composition of the
Board ensuring that the Board and its Committees have appropriate balance of skills, knowledge and
experience. The Nominations Committee reviews all Board appointments.

Since January 2021, the Risk Committee has been chaired by Ranald McGregor-Smith who is supported by
Charles Goodfellow. The Risk Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with regard to
Group risk management and compliance framework and governance structure that supports it.
Non-Executive Directors

which have been observed throughout the year. Non-Executive Directors retire by rotation in accordance with the
Company’s Articles of Association which prescribe that at every Annual General Meeting one third of the
directors for the time being or, if their number is not a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not
exceeding one third, shall retire from office. Non-executive directors are initially appointed for a three year term
but their appointment is terminable by either party on three months’ written notice.
In accordance with the Companies Act 2006, the Board complies with: a duty to act within their powers; a duty to
promote the success of the Company; a duty to exercise independent judgement; a duty to exercise reasonable
care, skill and diligence; a duty to avoid conflicts of interest; a duty not to accept benefits from third parties and a
duty to declare any interest in a proposed transaction or arrangement.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
The directors present their report and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June
2023. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting
Standards. In accordance with S414C(11) of the Companies Act 2006, the directors have chosen to include
information about future developments and principal risks and uncertainties in the Strategic Report.
Principal Activities
The principal activity of the Group during the year was building a portfolio of businesses which are involved
directly in the application of emerging and developed technology to the emerging Green Economy. The Group's
principal revenue generating activity during the year was the design, manufacture and sale of M1G and M2G,
boiler energy efficiency technologies, which are proven to reduce energy consumption on commercial boilers by
up to 35%.
Review of Business
A review of the business, its development and performance for the year and its position at the year end, together
with the future prospects of the Group, is contained in the Chairman & Chief Executive Officer’s Report and the
Strategic Report.
Governance and the Board
The Board’s governance system provides balanced support for the executive management team in the
development of the Group’s strategy and with the need to ensure effective monitoring of its implementation. The
Board and its committees have considered the significant events of the year and their impact on the Group’s
business and reputation.
During the year the Audit and Remuneration Committees were chaired by Charles Goodfellow,  and the Risk and
Nomination Committees were chaired by Ranald McGregor-Smith, although the latter two committees did not
meet. The Board remains confident in the work of those committees and the overall system of governance.
Events after the reporting date
There were no material events after the reporting date requiring disclosure.
Results and Dividends
The Group loss for the year, after taxation, amounted to £0.70m (2021: £0.74m loss). The Directors do not
recommend a final dividend this year (2022 – nil).
Going Concern
The key financial performance indicators for the Group in relation to going concern are revenue from its M2G
energy saving devices; net loss after taxation and net cashflow.  During the year, whilst turnover increased to
£1.10m from £0.68m in 2022 the net loss after taxation was  £0.70m (2022: £0.74m), and net cash and cash
equivalents decreased by £0.14m (2022: £0.83m).  
The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts to 30 June 2025 based on the conversion of sales pipeline to
contracted sales revenue and the expectation of repeat orders from existing customers.  
Historically the Group's conversion of sales pipeline has been uncertain with long lead times.  The directors are
confident that the sales pipeline will be converted into sales revenue in accordance with the cash flow forecasts
and that the cash flow forecasts confirm that the Group will have sufficient working capital  to settle its liabilities
as they fall due for a period of not less than twelve months from the date of the approval of these consolidated
financial statements. Consequently, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis.  However the uncertainty of the timing and conversion of the sales pipeline casts significant doubt
on the ability of the Company and Group to continue as a going concern.

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Sabien Technology Group Plc (the ‘parent company’) and its
subsidiaries (the ‘Group’) for the year ended 30 June 2023 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of
Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated and Company Statements of Financial Position, the Consolidated and
Company Cash Flow Statements, the Consolidated and Company Statements of Changes in Equity and notes to
the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has
been applied in their preparation is applicable law and UK adopted International Accounting Standards, and as
regards the parent company financial statements, as applied in accordance with the provisions of the Companies
Act 2006.
In our opinion:
•
the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and of the parent company’s 
affairs as at 30 June 2023 and of the Group’s loss for the year then ended;
•
the Group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with UK adopted International 
Accounting Standards;
•
the parent company financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with UK adopted 
International Accounting Standards and as applied in accordance with the provisions of the Companies 
Act 2006; and
•
the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 
2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable
law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the
audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the
ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s
Ethical Standard as applied to listed entities, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our opinion. 
An overview of the scope of our audit
Our audit approach was a risk-based approach founded on a thorough understanding of the Group’s business,
its environment and risk profile. We conducted substantive audit procedures and evaluated the Group’s internal
control environment. The components of the Group were evaluated by the group audit team based on a measure
of materiality, considering each component as a percentage of the Group’s total assets, current assets, revenue
and gross profit, which allowed the group audit team to assess the significance of each component and
determine the planned audit response.
For those components that were evaluated as significant components, either a full scope audit or specified audit
approach was determined based on their relative materiality to the Group and our assessment of the level of
audit risk. For significant components requiring a full scope approach, we evaluated the controls in place at those
components by performing walkthroughs over the financial reporting systems identified as part of our risk
assessment. We also reviewed the accounts production process and addressed critical accounting matters. We
then undertook substantive testing on significant classes of transactions and material account balances.
In order to address the audit risks identified during our planning procedures, we performed a full scope audit of
the financial statements of the parent company and of the financial information of Sabien Technology Limited.
We performed specified audit procedures over Sabien Inc.

Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of
the financial statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of material
misstatement (whether or not due to fraud) we identified, including those which had the greatest effect on: the
overall audit strategy, the allocation of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the engagement team.
These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming
our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. 
The key audit matters were:
•
Carrying value of intangible assets (Company and Group);
•
Carrying value of investments and investment in subsidiaries (Company); and
•
Going concern (Company and Group).
Key Audit Matters
How our scope addressed this matter

losses (2023: £0.73m, 2022: £0.74m) and lack of 
certainty over the timing of future sales indicate that 
there is a potential impairment of the carrying value of 
the intangible assets.
In order to satisfy ourselves that the carrying
values of the intangible assets were appropriate:
• We critically assessed the assumptions
underpinning the Directors’ impairment test of
the intellectual property to ensure it was in accordance 
with the requirements of IAS 36.
• We critically assessed the Directors’ assertion
that no impairment was required by reference to
trading performance and forecasts.
• We performed sensitivity analysis of the
Directors’ IAS 36 valuation.
• We considered the appropriateness of the
amortisation policy for intellectual property.
• We considered the appropriateness of the disclosures
in respect of the significant judgements detailed in notes 
5(viii).
Key observations
Based on our audit work, we concluded that intangible 
assets are not materially misstated at the reporting date 
and that management’s assessment that no impairment 
was required was appropriate.
We consider the disclosures in the consolidated financial 
statements to be adequate.

How our scope addressed this matter
Carrying value of investments,
investment in 
subsidiaries and other investments in associates
(Company and Group)
The cost of investment, before provision for impairment 
in Aeristech Limited, Proton Technologies Canada Inc. 
and Sabien Technology Limited in the Company and 
Consolidated Statements of Financial Position are 
£100,000, £1,400 and £6,467,000 respectively at the 
year end with the latter having been fully impaired in 
2021.
The investment in Proton Technologies Canada Inc. has 
been impaired during the year by £99,000. 
The cost of investment in b.grn Group Limited in the 
Company and Consolidated Statements of Financial 
Position is £281,000.
In order to satisfy ourselves that the carrying
value of the investments in Aeristech Limited, Proton 
Technologies Canada Inc., b.grn Group Limited, and
Sabien Technology Limited were appropriate:
• We critically assessed the assumptions underpinning 
the Directors’ impairment test of the investments in 
Aeristech Limited, Proton Technologies Canada Inc., 
b.grn Group Limited, and Sabien Technology Limited to 
ensure it was in accordance with the requirements of IAS 
36.
• We critically assessed the Directors’ assertion that the 
cost of investment in Sabien Technology Limited remains 
fully impaired and that no impairment in Aeristech Limited 
is required by reference to trading performance and 
forecasts.
• We critically assessed the Directors’ assertion that the 
cost of investment in Proton Technologies Canada Inc. 
had 
been 
substantially 
impaired 
by 
challenging 
management as to the reasons why this investment had 
been 
impaired. 
We 
obtained 
and 
assessed 
management’s 
calculations 
and 
supporting 
documentation for this impairment.
• We critically assessed the Director’s assertion that the 
cost of investment in b.grn Group Limited is not impaired 
at the year end.
• We critically assessed the significant judgements made 
by the Directors in their assessment of the timing and 
certainty of the recoverability of the balances included 
within other investments in associates.
Key observations
Based on the audit work performed we are satisfied that 
management’s assessment and conclusions are correct, 
and that no further impairment loss should be recognised 
in the parent company financial statements.
We consider the disclosures in the consolidated financial 
statements to be adequate.

Key Audit Matters
How our scope addressed this matter
Going concern (Company and Group)
The pre taxation loss of £0.73m (2022: £0.74m) and the 
limited visibility on future cash flow receipts indicate that 
the Company and Group may have a going concern 
issue in the absence of additional committed funding 
sources.
Our audit work and conclusion in respect of going 
concern has been detailed in the Material uncertainty 
related to going concern section of our audit report.
Our application of materiality
The scope and focus of our audit was influenced by our assessment and application of materiality. We define
materiality as the magnitude of misstatement that could reasonably be expected to influence the readers and the
economic decisions of the users of the financial statements. We use materiality to determine the scope of our
audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both
individually and on the financial statements as a whole. 
Due to the nature of the Group, we considered gross assets to be the main focus for the users of the financial
statements, accordingly this consideration influenced our judgement of materiality. Based on our professional
judgement, we determined materiality for the Group to be £25,600 and for the parent company to be £17,500
based on 2% of gross assets generated by the Group and parent company respectively during the period. 
On the basis of our risk assessment, together with our assessment of the overall control environment, our
judgement was that performance materiality (i.e., our tolerance for misstatement in an individual account or
balance) for the Group and parent company was 50% of materiality, namely £12,800 and £8,750 respectively.
We agreed to report to the Audit Committee all audit differences in excess of £1,280 for the Group and £875 for
the parent company, as well as differences below that threshold that, in our view, warranted reporting on
qualitative grounds. We also reported to the Audit Committee on disclosure matters that we identified when
assessing the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to note 5(iii) to the consolidated financial statements, which states that the Group made a loss
of £702,000 for the year ended 30 June 2023 (2022: £743,000). The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts
to 30 June 2025 that show that the Group has the ability to pay its liabilities as they fall due for at least twelve
months from the date of signing these financial statements. However the ability of the Group to grow its revenue
and return to profitability depends upon its ability to convert its sales pipeline into contracted revenue and there
can be no certainty in this respect. As stated in note 5(iii) these events or conditions, along with the other matters
as set out in note 5(iii) indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s
ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's use of the going concern basis of
accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Our evaluation of the directors’
assessment of the appropriateness of the going concern basis of preparation of the financial statements
included:
•
discussing their going concern assessment, including their view and perspective associated with Group’s 
ability to continue as a going concern;
•
reviewing and assessing the reliability of the forecast to ensure its accuracy and performed arithmetical 
checks;
•
critically assessing the client’s cash flow forecast to 30 June 2025 and assessing the underlying 
assumptions;
Page 28

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
(CONTINUED)
•
critically assessing the directors’ assertion that the company and group can continue as a going concern 
by reference to post year end trading and cash flows and ability to raise further funds if required; and
•
reviewing the trading performance post year end and compared it to the forecasts to assess their 
accuracy.
Reviewing the relevant disclosures within the annual report in line with management’s assessment and
considering other related aspects. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to
going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to note 5(v) to the consolidated financial statements which describes the uncertainty regarding
the timing of the cashflows in respect of the other investments in associates totalling £281,000. The directors
have prepared a detailed business plan for the development of the Regenerated Green Oil project but due to the
uncertainty of factors such as funding requirements, site identification and development and the restructuring of
b.grn Group Limited the overall success of the project at this early stage, and the timing of the related cash
flows, cannot be measured with certainty. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial
statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained
within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and,
except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion
thereon. 
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is
materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or
otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material
misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial
statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material
misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard. 
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion the part of the directors’ remuneration report to be audited has been properly prepared in
accordance with the Companies Act 2006.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
•
the information given in the Group Strategic Report and the Directors’ Report for the financial year for 
which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the parent company financial statements; 
and
•
the Group Strategic Report and the Directors’ Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable 
legal requirements. 
Page 29

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
(CONTINUED)
Matters on which we are required to report by exception.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the parent company and their environment
obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report
or the Directors’ Report. 
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to
report to you if, in our opinion:
•
adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit
have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
•
the parent company financial statements and the part of the directors’ remuneration report to be audited 
are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
•
certain disclosures of Directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
•
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of Directors
As explained more fully in the Directors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 21, the Directors are
responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair
view, and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s and the parent
company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and
using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the
parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise
from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be
expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

our 
responsibilities

the-auditor's-responsibilities-for
This description forms part of our auditor’s report. 
Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including
fraud.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures
in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities,
including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is
detailed below.
The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are; to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of
the financial statements due to fraud; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks
Page 30

SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SABIEN TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
(CONTINUED)
of material misstatement due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses to those
assessed risks; and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit.
However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and
those charged with governance of the company.
Our approach was as follows:
•
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the company and
considered that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, UK adopted International Accounting
Standards, the rules of the Alternative Investment Market, and UK taxation legislation.
•
We obtained an understanding of how the company complies with these requirements by discussions with
management and those charged with governance.
•
We assessed the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, including the risk of material
misstatement due to fraud and how it might occur, by holding discussions with management and those
charged with governance.
•
We inquired of management and those charged with governance as to any known instances of non-
compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations.
•
Based on this understanding, we designed specific appropriate audit procedures to identify instances of
non-compliance with laws and regulations. This included making enquiries of management and those
charged with governance and obtaining additional corroborative evidence as required.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of 
instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions 
reflected in the financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher 
than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for 
example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the 
Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken for no purpose other than to draw to the attention of 
the company’s members those matters which we are required to include in an auditor’s report addressed to 
them. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to any party other than 
the company and company’s members as a body, for our work, for this report, or for the opinions we have 
formed.

Standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.  They were approved for issue
by the Company's board of directors on 1 November 2023.
The Directors expect to apply these accounting policies, which are consistent with UK adopted
International Accounting Standards, in the Group’s Annual Report and Financial Statements for all future
reporting periods.

Company, using consistent accounting policies. All intra-group balances, income and expenses and
unrealised gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full.
Except as noted below, the financial information of subsidiaries is included in the consolidated financial
statements using the acquisition method of accounting. On the date of acquisition, the assets and
liabilities of the relevant subsidiaries are measured at their fair values.
All intra-Group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

Accounting policies (continued)
The Directors note that transactions under common control are outside the scope of IFRS 3 and that there
is no guidance elsewhere in IFRS covering such transactions.
IFRS contain specific guidance to be followed where a transaction falls outside the scope of IFRS. This
guidance is included at paragraphs 10 to 12 of IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting
Estimates and Errors. This requires, inter alia, that where IFRS does not include guidance for a particular
issue, the Directors may also consider the most recent pronouncements of other standard setting bodies
that use a similar conceptual framework to develop accounting standards. In this regard, it is noted that
the UK standard FRS 6 Acquisitions and Mergers which was in place at the time of the transaction
addresses the question of business combinations under common control.
In contrast to IFRS 3, FRS 6 sets out accounting guidance for transactions under common control which,
as with IFRS 3, are outside the scope of that accounting standard. The guidance contained in FRS 6
indicates that merger accounting may be used when accounting for transactions under common control.
Having considered the requirements of IAS 8, and the guidance included in FRS 6, it is considered
appropriate to use a form of accounting which is similar to pooling of interest when dealing with the
transaction in which the Company acquired its controlling interest in Sabien Technology Limited.
In consequence, the consolidated financial statements for Sabien Technology Group Plc report the result
of operations for the year as though the acquisition of its controlling interest through a transaction under
common control had occurred at 1 October 2005. The effect of intercompany transactions has been
eliminated in determining the results of operations for the year prior to acquisition of the controlling
interest, meaning that those results are on substantially the same basis as the results of operations for the
year after the acquisition of the controlling interest.
Similarly, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and other financial information have been
presented as though the assets and liabilities of the combining entities had been transferred at 1 October
2005.
Whilst FRS 6 is no longer effective similar requirements are set out in Section 19 of the current UK
Financial Reporting Standard, FRS 102, in respect of such transactions.
The Group did take advantage of section 131 of the Companies Act 1985 and debited the difference
arising on the merger with Sabien Technology Limited to a merger reserve. When consolidated retained
earnings are available, any debit reserves are offset against these retained earnings. As there were
consolidated retained earnings available in the year ended 30 June 2012, the merger reserve was offset
against those retained earnings.
2.4
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Assets are written off on
a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life commencing when the asset is brought into use. The
useful lives of the assets held by the Group are considered to be as  follows:
Office equipment, fixtures and fittings
3-4 years
2.5
Intangible assets
Intellectual property, which is controlled through custody of legal rights and could be sold separately from
the rest of the business, is capitalised where fair values can be reliably measured.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
2.
Accounting policies (continued)
Intellectual property is amortised on a straight line basis evenly over its expected useful life of 20 years.
Impairment tests on the carrying value of intangible assets are undertaken:
•
At the end of the first full financial year following acquisition; and
•
In other periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be 
fully recoverable.
If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the
extent of the impairment loss (if any). Recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value, less costs to sell,
and value in use. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their
present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been
adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying
amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised as an
expense immediately.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the
revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only in so far that the increased carrying amount does not
exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised
for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in income immediately.
2.6
Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are stated at cost less any provision for impairment in value other than
derivatives which are held at fair value through profit and loss.

2.7
Investments in associates
Associates are entities over which the group has significant influence but not control or joint control.  This
is generally the case where the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights.  
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting after initially being
recognised at cost.
Under the equity method of accounting, associates are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter
to recognise the Group's share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the investee in profit or loss, and
the Group's share of movements in other comprehensive income of the investee in other compehensive
income.  Dividends received or receivable from associates are recognised as a reduction in the carrying
amount of the investment.
When the Group's share of losses in an equity-accounted associate equals or exceeds its interest in the
entity, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further
losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the other entity.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated
to the extent of the Group’s interest in these entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the
transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of equity
accounted investees have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies
adopted by the Group.
The carrying amount of equity-accounted associates is tested for impairment in accordance with the policy
described in note 19.
2.8
Government grants
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance
that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. 
2.9
Deferred consideration
Deferred consideration is discounted from the anticipated settlement date at the Group’s weighted
average cost of capital.

2.10
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in a contract
with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Group recognises revenue
when it transfers control of a product or service to a customer. 
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when signed agreements are exchanged between the two
parties for the manufacture and/or delivery of goods. Where the Group is responsible for the project
management of the installations, revenue is normally recognised upon installation at the customer site,
however there are occasions when the sale of the product and the installation are invoiced and recognised
separately when each element is complete. Where goods are delivered to overseas distributors, revenue
is recognised at the time of shipment from the Company’s warehouse. 
Revenue from services generally arises from (1) pilot projects for customers and is recognised once the
pilot has been completed and the results notified to the customer. Pilot projects generally have a duration
of between 1 and 3 months; and (2) Cloud Service revenue which is recognised evenly over the period of
the contract. 
Revenue from operating lease services rendered to customers is recognised on a straight-line basis. 
Revenue is shown net of value-added tax, returns, rebates and discounts and after eliminating sales
within the Group.
Interest income is accrued on a time basis by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective
interest rate applicable.
  
2.11
Leases (Group as lessee)
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains a lease. A lease is
defined as ‘a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset)
for a period of time in exchange for consideration’.
At lease commencement date, the Group recognised a right of use asset and a lease liability on the
balance sheet. The right of use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of
the lease liability, any initial direct costs incurred by the Group, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and
remove the asset at the end of the lease and any lease made in advance of the lease commencement
date (net of any incentives received).
The Group depreciates the right of use asset on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date
to the earlier of the end of the useful like of the right of use asset or the end of the lease term. The Group
also assesses the right of use asset for impairment when such indicators exist. At the commencement
date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments unpaid at the date,
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily available or the Group’s
incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made
up of fixed payments, variable payments based on an index or rate, amounts expected to be payable
under a residual value guarantee, and payments arising from purchase and extension options reasonably
certain to be exercised.
Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced for payments made and increased for
interest. It is remeasured to reflect any reassessment or modification, or if there are changes to fixed
payments. When the lease liability is remeasured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right of
use asset, or profit and loss if the right of use asset is already reduced to zero.

2.11
Leases (Group as lessee) (continued)
The Group has elected to account for short-term leases and leases of low value assets using the practical
expedients. Instead of recognising a right of use assert and lease liability, the payment in relation these
are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. applicable to
operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are
charged to profit and loss on the straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.12
Operating leases (Group as lessor)
Assets leased to customers under are included in property, plant and equipment and are depreciated over
their lease term down to their anticipated realisable value on a straight-line basis. Anticipated realisable
values are regularly reassessed and the impact upon the depreciation charge is adjusted prospectively. 
2.13
Foreign currency
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the
statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the
rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving
at the operating result.
Profit and losses of overseas subsidiary undertakings are translated into sterling at average rates for the
year. The statements of financial position of overseas subsidiary undertakings are translated at the rate
ruling at the statement of financial position date. Differences arising from the translation of Group
investments in overseas subsidiary undertakings are recognised as a separate component of equity.
Net exchange differences classified as equity are separately tracked and the cumulative amount disclosed
as a translation reserve.
The principal place of business of the Group is the United Kingdom with sterling being the functional
currency. 
2.14
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets,
which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or
sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their
intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure
on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

2.17
Taxation
The charge for current tax is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items that are non-
assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by
the year end date.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences
arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements
and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of taxable profit. In principle, deferred tax
liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to
the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary
differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises
from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and
liabilities in a transaction which affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in
subsidiaries and associates, and interest in joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the
reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the
foreseeable future.
Deferred tax is calculated at the rates that are expected to apply when the asset or liability is settled.
Deferred tax is charged or credited in the statement of comprehensive income, except when it relates to
items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation
authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Share based payments
The Group has applied the requirements of IFRS2 Share-based Payments. The Group issues options to
certain employees. These options are measured at fair value (excluding the effect of non-market based
vesting conditions) at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed on a
straight-line basis over the vesting period based on the Group’s estimate of the shares that will eventually
vest and adjusted for the effect of non-market based vesting conditions.
Fair value is measured by use of the Black-Scholes model. The expected life used in the model has been
adjusted, based on management’s best estimate for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions
and behavioural conditions.
2.19
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of average cost and net realisable value.
2.20
Financial instruments
Financial Assets:
The Group classifies its financial assets as financial assets at amortised cost, financial assets at fair value
through profit and loss and cash. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets
were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
Financial assets at amortised cost are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments
that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater
than 12 months after the balance sheet date. These are classified as non-current assets.
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are derivative financial assets with fixed or
determinable payments that are not quoted on an active market but are contingent on completion of
certain financial milestones before the contract becomes payable.  They are classified as non-current
assets.
Trade receivables are classified as financial assets at amortised cost and are recognised at fair value less
provision for impairment. Trade receivables, with standard payment terms of between 30 to 65 days, are
recognised and carried at the lower of their original invoiced and recoverable amount. Where the time
value of money is material, receivables are carried at amortised cost.  
A loss allowance is recognised on initial recognition of financial assets held at amortised cost, based on
expected credit losses, and is re-measured annually with changes appearing in profit or loss. Where there
has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial instrument since initial recognition, the loss
allowance is measured based on lifetime expected losses. In all other cases, the loss allowance is
measured based on 12-month expected losses. For assets with a maturity of 12 months or less, including
trade receivables, the 12-month expected loss allowance is equal to the lifetime expected loss allowance.
Short term financial assets are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are
measured at transaction price net of transaction costs and measured subsequently at amortised cost
using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
The Group’s financial assets are disclosed in notes 20, 21, and 26. Impairment testing of trade
receivables is described in note 20.
Financial Liabilities:
The Group classifies its financial liabilities as trade payables and other short term monetary liabilities.

Financial risk management
Financial Risk Factors
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks arising from its use of financial instruments:
credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. This note describes the Group’s objectives, policies and
processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them.
Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial
statements. So far, there have been no substantive changes in the Group’s exposure to financial
instrument risks, its objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to
measure them from previous periods unless otherwise stated in this note.
The principal financial instruments used by the Group, from which the financial instrument risk arises, are
as follows:
•
trade and other receivables;
•
cash and cash equivalents;
•
trade and other payables; and
•
borrowings.

Financial risk management (continued)
The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management objectives and
policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing
and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the
Group’s finance function. The Board reviews regular finance reports from the Finance Director through
which it evaluates any risk exposures with a view to minimising any potential adverse effects on the
Group’s financial performance. So far, the Group has not used derivative financial instruments to hedge
risk exposures as its activities and operations exposure to such risks are not deemed significant.
Transactions that are speculative in nature are expressly forbidden.
Details regarding the policies that address financial risk are set out below:
(i)
Credit Risk
Credit risk arises principally from the Group’s trade receivables and cash and cash equivalents. It is the
risk that the counterparty fails to discharge its obligation in respect of the instruments.
Trade Receivables
The nature of the Group’s operations means that all of its current key customers are established
businesses and organisations in both the public and private sector. The credit risks are minimised due to
the nature of these customers and the concentration of sales to date within established economies. The
Group will continually review its credit risk policy, taking particular account of future exposure to
developing markets and associated changes in the credit risk profile.
The carrying amount in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, net of any applicable provisions
for loss, represents the amount exposed to credit risk and hence there is no difference between the
carrying amount and the maximum credit risk exposure.
(ii)
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk arises from the Group’s management of working capital. It is the risk that the Group will
encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due.
The Group’s policy is to ensure that it will always have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when
they become due and have the availability of such funds for its operations. Management monitors rolling
forecasts of the Group’s liquidity reserve which comprises cash and cash equivalents on the basis of
expected cash flow. At the year end date, these projections indicate that the Group expects to have
sufficient liquid resources to meet its obligations under all reasonable expected circumstances for the
forthcoming year. The Group continues to monitor its liquidity position through budgetary procedures and
cash flow analysis.
The table below analyses the Group’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the
remaining period from the year end date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the
table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due in less than 1 year equal their carrying
balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.

(iii)
Market Risk
Market risk arises from the Group’s use of interest bearing, tradable and foreign currency financial
instruments. There is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in interest rates (interest rate risk), foreign exchange rates (currency risk) or other
market factors (other price risk).
•
Interest Rate Risk
The Group invests its surplus cash in a spread of fixed rate short term bank deposits to minimise risk and
maximise flexibility. In doing so it limits its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates that are inherent in
such a market. Overall risk is not regarded as significant and the effect of a one percentage point increase
in the average interest rate during the year would have resulted in an increase in loss after tax for the year
of £1k (2022: £1k).
•
Currency Risk
The Group operates internationally through its distributorship arrangements in Europe and the US and is
exposed to currency risk arising from the Euro and the US dollar. Currency risk arises from future
commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities. Given the current scale of the Group’s
overseas operations, overall currency risk is considered to be low.
An increase of one percentage point in the average 2023 Euro and US dollar exchange rates would have
increased the Group’s loss after tax by less than £1k (2022: £1k).
•
Other Price Risk
The Group holds some strategic equity investments in other companies where those complement the
Group's operations. The directors believe that the exposure to market price risk from this activity is
acceptable in the Group's circumstances. The effect of a 10% increase in the value of the equity
investments held at the reporting date would, all other variables held constant, have resulted in an
increase in the fair value through other comprehensive income reserve and net assets of £10k (2022:
£10k). A 10% decrease in their value would, on the same basis, have decreased the fair value through
other comprehensive income reserve and net assets by the same amount.

Financial risk management (continued)
Capital risk management
The Group’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going
concern in order to provide future returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to
maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. The Group seeks to maintain, at this
stage of its development, sufficient funding drawn primarily from equity to enable the Group to meet its
working and strategic needs. The Group may issue new shares or realise value from its existing
investments and other assets as may be deemed necessary.
The Group centrally manages borrowings, investment of surplus funds and financial risks. The objective of
holding financial investments is to provide efficient cash and tax management and effective funding for the
Group.
Fair value estimation
Holding trade receivables and payables at book value less impairment provision is considered to
approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by
discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the
Group for similar financial instruments.
5.
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Key sources of Estimation Uncertainty and Significant Judgements
The preparation of the consolidated and Company financial statements requires the Group and Company
to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The directors base their
estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that they believe are reasonable under
the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgements about the carrying value of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
In the process of applying the Group’s and Company’s accounting policies, management has made a
number of judgements and estimations, of which the following are considered to have the most significant
effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements:
(i)
Revenue Recognition
No significant criteria are required by the Group in regard to revenue recognition that are not covered by
the accounting policy.
(ii)
Share-based Payments
The calculation of the estimated fair value of share options and warrants granted can only reasonably be
assessed once such options and warrants are exercised. To date, none of the outstanding options or
warrants have been exercised and the Group is therefore reliant upon the calculations as explained in the
accounting policy and note 27 to the financial statements in arriving at an estimated fair value in line with
the requirements of IFRS2.

Critical accounting estimates and judgements (continued)
(iii)
Going Concern
The key financial performance indicators for the Group in relation to going concern are revenue from its
M2G energy saving devices; net loss after taxation and net cashflow.  During the year, whilst turnover
increased to £1.10m from £0.68m in 2022 the net loss after taxation was  £0.70m (2022: £0.74m), and net
cash and cash equivalents decreased by £0.14m (2022: £0.83m).  
The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts to 30 June 2025 based on the conversion of sales
pipeline to contracted sales revenue and the expectation of repeat orders from existing customers.  
Historically the Group's conversion of sales pipeline has been uncertain with long lead times.  The
directors are confident that the sales pipeline will be converted into sales revenue in accordance with the
cash flow forecasts and that the cash flow forecasts confirm that the Group will have sufficient working
capital  to settle its liabilities as they fall due for a period of not less than twelve months from the date of
the approval of these consolidated financial statements. Consequently, the consolidated financial
statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.  However the uncertainty of the timing and
conversion of the sales pipeline casts significant doubt on the ability of the Company and Group to
continue as a going concern.  
(iv)
Impairment of investments in subsidiaries
As detailed in note 18  based on their best estimate of likely future developments within the business, the
directors consider that the impairment provision against the carrying value of investments in subsidiaries
in the Company’s Statement of Financial Position as at the year end date remains valid and reasonable.
At the year end date, the carrying value of investments in subsidiaries in the Company’s Statement of
Financial Position was £nil (2022: £nil).
(v) Impairment of other investments
As detailed in note 18, the directors consider that an impairment provision of £99k was required against
the cost of £100k in relation to the Group's investment in Proton Technologies Canada Inc.  On 29
September 2023 Sabien received notification that a proposal from a third party to inject new capital,
restructure its balance sheet, and reform its management team (the "Proposal") had been successful.
Pending further information from the new management team, the Board of Sabien has concluded that an
impairment provision of £99k is required at 30 June 2023 to reflect the dilution and notional value ascribed
by the Proposal.
For  Aeristech Limited the impairment review was carried out based on publically available financial
information.  The information showed Aeristech had continued to raise funds at a price in excess of the
Group's investment value and no impairment was required.

MOU signed with City Oil Field Inc. ("COF") to bring in COF as a shareholder to b.grn and provide
b.grn with manufacturing rights and catalyst purchase rights for the plastic to oil technology. 
The project remains pre-revenue and management continue to monitor progress against development
milestones.  The carrying value of the investments is currently supported by future cashflow projections
but will be reassessed as progress is made against the development milestones.
(vii)
Impairment of Intellectual Property
As a result of a review by the directors of the unit sales likely to arise over the next year, no change in the
value of Intellectual Property has been considered to be necessary and consequently no provision has
been made for impairment.
(viii)
Deferred Tax Asset
Management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax asset that can be recognised,
based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with an assessment of the effect of
future tax planning strategies. In 2015, the directors decided that it would be prudent not to recognise any
deferred tax asset in the financial statements until recurring profitability is attained.
The Group and Company was loss making in the prior and current financial years and thus a deferred tax
asset has not been recognised in the financial statements for the year under review.
The tax losses available to offset against future taxable profits, are estimated at £7.93m (2022: £7.39m).
6.
Segmental reporting
Based on risks and returns, the Directors consider that the primary reporting business format is by
business segment which is currently just the supply of energy efficiency products as these form the basis
of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker in order to
allocate resources to the segment and assess its performance. Therefore, the disclosures for the primary
segment have already been given in these financial statements. The secondary reporting format is by
geographical analysis by destination. Non- UK revenues amounted to 6% of the total and are analysed as
follows:

Deferred tax:
As detailed in note 5(v), in 2015 the Group reviewed the carrying value of the deferred tax asset
recognised in previous years and derecognised the total asset in view of the uncertainty as to the timing of
a return to recurring profitability.
The aggregate amount of deductible temporary differences, parent company unused tax losses and
unused tax credits for which no deferred tax asset is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of
Financial Position is estimated at £7.93m (2022: £7.39m) which at the substantively enacted tax rate
would equate to £1.98m (2022: £1.85m).
Changes to the future expected UK corporation tax rates were enacted as part of The Finance (No. 2) Act
2021, which received Royal Assent on 10 June 2021, in which the Government announced that the
corporation tax main rate will remain at 19% for the years starting 1 April 2021 and 2022 before increasing
to 25% for the year starting 1 April 2023 and thereafter. 
14.
Earnings per share
The calculation of earnings per share is based on the loss for the year attributable to equity holders of
£702k (2022: £743k loss) and a weighted average number of shares in issue during the period of
20,651,081 (2022: 14,675,358). At the year end, options over 117 shares (2022: 117) and warrants over
nil (2022: 1,675,349) shares were in issue.

Intangible assets (continued)
Intellectual Property represents the rights to the M2G product acquired from the inventors and upgrades
made during the year in relation to the M2G Cloud and M2G Evo products. An impairment review
performed in accordance with IAS 36 ‘Impairment of Assets’ as detailed in note 18 determined that no
impairment was necessary at 30 June 2023. The remaining amortisation period for the original Intellectual
Property is one year. 
Licences comprises the 20t per day hydrogen producing licence acquired from Proton Technologies
Canada Inc and option to construct a COF processing facility at Proton Canada Inc.'s facility in
Saskatchewan, Canada.  The hydrogen processing licence had a 15.5 year life remaining at year end and
the option to construct a COF facility has an indefinite economic life becuase there is no expiry date to the
agreement.  An impairment review performed in accordance with IAS 36 ‘Impairment of Assets’ as
detailed in note 18 determined that no impairment was necessary at 30 June 2023.  The hydrogen licence
of £50,000 is amortised over the remaining 15.5 years, the COF facility option of £50,000 is not amortised.

£15k per annum for 10 years starting with the commissioning of the first plastic to oil Regenerated Green
Oil plant.  
The Board considers that the Fixed Profit Share will start to be repaid from the year end 30 June 2025
onwards.
Impairment review
Investment in subsidiaries
The Company performs an annual impairment review in accordance with IAS 36 ‘Impairment of Assets’. In
accordance with IAS 36, the recoverable amount is calculated being the higher of value in use and fair
value less costs to sell.
The value in use is determined using cash flow projections covering a ten year period which have been
approved by the Board where sufficient information is available. They reflect the directors’ expectations of
the level and timing of revenue and expenses, working capital and operating cash flows based on past
experience and future expectations of business performance.  For the entities where the Group holds a
minority interest, impairment assessments are made using available information.
The pre-tax discount rate of 9.6% (2022: 9.6%) applied to the cash flow projections is derived from the
Group’s weighted average cost of capital. An average growth rate of 8% (2022: 8%) has been applied
over the five years of the cash flow forecast.
Other investments
For Proton Technologies Canada Inc. the impairment review was carried out based on available financial
information provided to shareholders.  On 29 September 2023 Sabien received notification that a proposal
from a third party to inject new capital, restructure its balance sheet, and reform its management team
(the "Proposal") had been successful. Pending further information from the new management team, the
Board of Sabien has concluded that an impairment provision of £99k is required at 30 June 2023 to reflect
the dilution and notional value ascribed by the Proposal.
For  Aeristech Limited the impairment review was carried out based on publically available financial
information.  The information showed Aeristech had continued to raise funds at a price in excess of the
Group's investment value and no impairment was considered necessary.
Other investments in associates
The Board reviewed the Other investments into associates regarding b.grn and concluded no impairment
was needed due to the progress made on the project to date, as follows:
1.
Due diligence is ongoing with US investment banks and trade partners.
