Revenue Decline: VivoPower's half-year revenue fell 23% year-on-year to $8.7 million due to project timing, adverse weather, and a weaker Australian dollar.
Project Losses: Significant one-off losses from the Edenvale solar project, caused by climate-driven weather events, led to a negative gross profit and gross margin.
Operating Losses: Operating loss increased to $8.2 million, impacted by Edenvale, lower revenue, and unfavorable foreign exchange.
Cash Position: Cash increased to $3.2 million, driven mainly by investments in Tembo's growth.
Strategic Progress: Expanded Tembo's partner network and order book, launched next-generation EUV23 vehicle, and completed J.A. Martin Electrical divestiture.
Future Outlook: Production and delivery ramp-up for Tembo expected; Edenvale project set to conclude soon, with Kenshaw Electrical seeing improved momentum.
