Our Take: A good set of results with adj. EPS at the top end of the guided range. European Utilities & Clean Energy

ACRelative to our numbers, this looks to be driven by higher capitalised interest than Pavan Mahbubani, CFA

we were expecting. Confirmation of FY27 guidance (adjusted for the mechanical (44-20) 7134-3056

impact of last November’s equity raise) and FY30 guidance was expected and pavan.mahbubani@jpmorgan.com

should reassure. We expect the conference call to focus on any views on the J.P. Morgan Securities plc

evolving UK political backdrop and potential impact on SSE, as well as execution Javier Garrido

of the company’s investment programme in Networks & Offshore Wind. (34-91) 516-1557
