Board update
-- Jonathan Marren confirmed as permanent Chief Financial Officer to continue alongside his existing role as Chief Development Officer.
Larry Zulch, Chief Executive Officer at Invinity said:
"When we released our final results for 2022, I wrote that 2023 would be an inflection point and it appears I was correct. We saw record income first half, up by ten times year over year. We made significant progress on Mistral, our joint product development with Gamesa Electric and Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy. We achieved positive product gross margin on the largest vanadium flow battery in the United States. And then it got better just after the half year with our first Mistral sale to Everdura, our partners in Taiwan, followed by the U.S. Department of Energy's announcement that they plan to fund 84 MWh of Mistral projects, more than we've delivered in our history to date. Jonathan Marren's agreement to be our CFO was another positive development. All of this, combined with the increasing awareness in energy markets of the critical role Invinity's vanadium flow batteries will play in the transition to renewable energy, supports our belief that we are the leading company in non-lithium stationary storage."

CEO Report
H1 2023 Financial Results
Total income including sales revenue and project related grant income increased 10x to GBP14.8m in H1 2023 (H1 2022: GBP1.5m).
Revenue is recognised against projects when specific performance obligations related to those projects have been satisfied. Grant funding specific to customer projects has been presented alongside the relevant project revenue and associated direct costs where that funding is project specific and represents a direct subsidy against project costs.
Almost all of the GBP14.8m was driven by successful deliveries relating to the Company's three biggest projects to date, being:
-- 8.4 MWh VFB to Elemental Energy for its Chappice Lake Solar Storage project in Alberta, Canada;
-- 8 MWh VFB to Yadlamalka Energy for its Spencer Energy project in South Australia;
-- 10 MWh VFB to the Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians for its solar-plus-storage microgrid project in Southern California, in part funded by the California Energy Commission.
As previously disclosed in Company accounts, the Elemental Energy and Yadlamalka Energy projects were both delivered at a project gross margin loss as the Company chose to invest in the deployment of its VS3 product into these two important reference projects, the deployment of which has played an important part in the Company signing more than 66 MWh of further orders. Some of this loss was offset by the release of a provision for contract losses.
The Company is pleased to report that the more recently announced 10 MWh Viejas project, referenced in the section above, was delivered at a small positive project gross margin. (Note project gross margin excludes absorbed indirect overheads).
Administration costs increased marginally to GBP9.3m (H1 2022: GBP8.9m). The Company continues to invest in its staff so as to develop an operation capable of supporting the significant growth potential available whilst also developing Mistral. Research and Development costs are shown on a net basis after cost recoveries from Gamesa Electric under our Joint Development and Commercialisation Agreement with the decrease year-on-year partly a result of increased recoveries under this agreement.
Finance income and finance costs are both impacted by the unwinding of the associated balance sheet captions following the repayment of the Riverfort Loan facility in March 2023. As part of Finance income, interest was received of GBP0.1m on cash balances held following the fundraising in March 2023.
Total inventory and net related working capital rose to GBP4.7m at the end of the Period (H1 2022: GBP1.2m) as a result of increased activity to deliver on the 2023 sales pipeline as follows:

During the Period the Company raised GBP23m from an equity fundraising including securing a GBP2.5m strategic investment from Taiwanese technology group Everbrite. Following the repayment of the Riverfort Loan facility in March 2023 the Group is debt free, excluding leases.
Commercial
The Company announced today that the United States Department of Energy ("DOE") plans to fund six projects across the U.S. that together will use 84 MWh of Invinity's next generation product, code-named "Mistral".
This award marks important progress for Invinity in building a robust orderbook for its next- generation product that is expected to formally launch in 2024.
Post Period end, the Company also secured its first commercial order for Mistral from strategic partner, Everdura, for a project in central Taiwan to balance the island's electric grid. This order, a varying of the original 15 MWh order announced 1 December 2022, does not change revenue forecasts but is expected to achieve a greater gross margin than previously anticipated.
During the Period, the Company closed 5.38 MWh of sales from 5 customers (H1 2022: 8.4 MWh from 1 customer), each of which are anticipated to contribute positive project gross margin. The Company also secured GBP11m of matched funding under Phase 2 of the UK LODES project for a 30 MWh system. Contracting for this project is ongoing and further updates will be provided in due course.
Post Period, the Company also made a further 0.66 MWh of VS3 sales to 2 customers in the EU and Australia.
The Company also signed three reseller partnerships in North America, covering Defense and Tribal Nations projects (Indian Energy), the UK, covering battery rentals (Dawsongroup), and Hungary (Ideona Group and STS Group).
Post the Period end, the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding with Everdura proposing a strategic manufacturing partnership for Invinity products in Taiwan that would significantly expand the Company's total global manufacturing capacity and provide greater access to Asian energy storage markets in the future.
Finally, strong government and agency engagement occurred in the year to date, with key post Period events including:
-- hosting Scottish Energy Minister, Gillian Martin MSP at the Company's Bathgate facility (July 2023);
-- hosting Canada's Energy and Natural Resources Minister, Jonathan Wilkinson, at the Company's Vancouver facility as he launched Powering Canada Forward alongside B.C.'s Minister for Jobs, Economic Development and Innovation, Brenda Bailey (August 2023);
-- Matt Harper, CCO, addressing the UK House of Lords Science and Technology Committee on the benefits of VFBs for the Net Zero grid (September 2023).
Next-Generation Product Development Progress
The Company continues to be pleased with the progress achieved to date of the development program for its next-generation product code-named Mistral. The securing of B.C. CICE funding support for the pilot prototype, the first commercial order for the product from Everdura, and the DOE's announcement that it plans to fund 84 MWh of Mistral projects are key milestones that continue to underline the attractiveness and suitability of Invinity's durable and flexible vanadium flow batteries to meet the growing global requirement for energy storage.
Invinity continues to expect more contracts for a limited number of initial Mistral projects to be announced later in 2023. The expected full launch, including full product details, certification and unrestricted sale of the product remains on track for mid-2024.
Operational
During the Period the Company delivered a record 26.5 MWh of vanadium flow batteries (H1 2022: 3.4 MWh) including deliveries associated with the 10 MWh system for the Viejas project in California, the 8.4 MWh system for the Chappice Lake project in Canada and the 8 MWh system for the Spencer Energy project in Australia. The Company also remains on track to deliver against its customer commitments for 2023.
The deliveries were achieved from inventory held at the previous year end plus the manufacture of a record 15.62 MWh of vanadium flow batteries during the Period (H1 2022: 5.94 MWh). This achievement is a direct result of continued investment in improving the capacity of the Company's manufacturing facilities, including a significant increase in the Vancouver facility achieved at minimal cost.
The Company also made significant supply chain improvements to further enhance operational efficiencies and margins and increase manufacturing scale at lower cost as part of management's pathway to profitability, including hiring a global Head of Supply Chain.
Corporate & Strategic
Invinity continues to make important strategic developments relating to its products, partners and corporate positioning, including securing DTC Eligibility to allow real-time electronic clearing and settlement in the United States for its OTCQX-listed ordinary shares to provide increased liquidity for U.S.-based investors.
Invinity sees strategic partnerships and investment as an important pillar of its future corporate growth. As previously disclosed, the Company confirms that discussions with a number of potential strategic partners remain ongoing.
Post the Period end, following General Meetings of the Short-Term and Long-Term Warrant holders, the Company secured approval to amend the subscription prices of its Short- and Long-Term Warrants and the exercise date of the Short-Term Warrants.
Throughout the Period and beyond, the Company has continued to focus on delivering its four-part strategy that is taking Invinity forward on its pathway to profitability. These key tenets of 1) delivering projects; 2) closing new and larger deals; 3) progressing Mistral; and 4) advancing its operational excellence are enabling the Company to maintain its growth trajectory and adroitly address challenges as they appear.
Current Trading and Outlook
The Company's 2023 revenue backlog (defined as both contracted orders already recognised in 2023 and contracted orders capable of delivery over the remainder of 2023) was GBP24.9m as at 22 September 2023.

Notes
(forming part of the unaudited consolidated historical financial information)
1: General Information
Invinity Energy Systems plc (the 'Company') is a public company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Jersey. The registered office address is Third Floor, IFC5, Castle Street, St. Helier, JE2 3BY, Jersey.
The Company is listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange with the ticker symbol IES.L and on the Aquis Stock Exchange (AQSE). The Company also trades in the USA on OTCQX Best Market under the symbol "IESVF".
The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (together the 'Group') relate to the manufacture and sale of vanadium flow battery systems and associated installation, warranty and other services.
2: Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
This unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information for the six-months ended 30 June 2023 (the 'interim financial information') has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim financial reporting' as adopted by the European Union. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, that were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
The annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 are available on the company's website ( www.invinity.com ).
This interim financial information has been prepared using the historical cost basis of accounting. The accounting policies applied across all the Group's subsidiaries when preparing the financial information are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. The accounting policies have been consistently applied across all Group entities for the purpose of producing this interim financial information.
The financial information included in this document does not comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of Companies (Jersey) Law 1991. The comparative figures for the financial year ended 31 December 2022 are not the company's statutory accounts for that financial year within the meaning of Companies (Jersey) Law 1991. Those accounts have been reported on by the company's auditors and delivered to the Jersey Financial Services Commission.
The report of the auditors included in the annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 was unqualified. However, the auditors' report did contain an emphasis of matter related to the application of the going concern basis of preparation.
The Group's business activities, together with factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position, are set out in the operations and financial review sections of this report.
The financial position of the Group, its cash flows and liquidity position are described in the financial review section.
Going concern
In assessing whether the Group has the ability to continue as a going concern the Directors have modelled a base cash flow forecast for a period up to 31 December 2024. The Directors have prepared a base case scenario that assumes the 14.5m Short-Term warrants originally granted in 2021 ("Short-Term Warrants"), are exercised. Under this scenario the Group would expect to remain cash positive for the period up to 31 December 2024 assessed for going concern purposes. The forecast does indicate that the Group would move into negative cash shortly after the period assessed for going concern as a result of working capital investment on future sales. The Group would defer any working capital investment if it were to result in exhausting all cash. This forecast is also based on delivering existing signed sales contracts during 2023 as per forecast gross margins and existing and future sales contracts during 2024 at anticipated positive gross margins. The Directors recognise there is a risk that the Short-Term Warrants will not be exercised if they are not 'in the money' before the expiry date and given it is not at the discretion of the Group.
In assessing going concern the Directors have also prepared a severe but plausible downside scenario which forecasts delivery of existing and future sales being made during 2024 being delayed beyond June 2024 and forecasted margins not being achieved, and the Short-Term warrants not being exercised. Under this scenario the Group would exhaust all available cash by April 2024 and it will be necessary to raise further funding within the next 12 months in order to continue trading and deliver on the strategic objectives.
The Directors are in the process of evaluating potential additional funding options from potential strategic investors but no such funding is committed as at the date of approval of these financial statements. The Group has been, and continues in, active discussions with a number of potential strategic investors and is confident that it will be able to conclude an equity investment from one or more of such parties within the period up to 31 December 2024 assessed for going concern purposes. The Directors also note that the Company concluded an initial strategic investment from Everbrite Technology Co., Ltd. for GBP2.5 million in March 2023 which gives them confidence that the Company is capable of attracting further strategic investment.
Due to the uncertainty in relation to obtaining additional funding this indicates the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if the Group were unable to continue as a going concern.
In addition to the issues discussed above, the directors have also reviewed other varying, and wide-ranging information relating to both present and future conditions when reaching their conclusion regarding going concern. These included the:
-- operational performance of the Company's products delivered to customer sites to date; -- value of contracts signed for delivery in 2023 and 2024; -- growing sales pipeline of 4,653.2 MWh in September 2023 vs 2,470.3 MWh in May 2023; -- growing opportunities presented by the emergent energy storage market; -- growing levels of Government engagement and support in the three key markets; and
-- positive discussions with potential strategic partners regarding making an equity investment into the Company.
Estimates and judgements
The preparation of interim financial information requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and of items of income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing this interim financial information, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. Similarly, the key sources of estimation uncertainty related to the financial information were the same as those encountered when applying the Group's accounting policies in relation to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022.
Principal risks and uncertainties
In preparing the condensed consolidated financial information, management is required to consider the principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group. In management's opinion the principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group are unchanged since the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. Those risks and uncertainties, together with management's response to them are described in the risk review section of the annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022.

---------------------------------------- -------------- -------------- --------------
Additional potential shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share primarily relate to potential shares outstanding at 30 June 2023 that may be issued in satisfaction of 'in-the-money' employee share options. Potentially dilutive shares related to 'in-the-money' outstanding warrants to subscribe for ordinary shares in the Company are also included in calculating diluted earnings per share.
Where additional potential shares have an anti-dilutive impact on the calculation of loss per share calculation, such potential shares are excluded from the weighted average number of shares used in the calculation.
Additional potential shares are anti-dilutive where their inclusion in the calculation of loss per share results in a lower loss per share.

Goodwill
All goodwill is tested annually for impairment. At 31 December 2022, goodwill was tested for impairment using a fair value less costs of disposal methodology by reference to the Company's quoted market capitalisation using the price of 43.0 pence per share at that date. No impairment loss was identified in relation to goodwill.
The closing share price on 22 September 2023 was 44.0p, giving a market capitalisation of GBP80.23m which does not indicate impairment of goodwill.
Patents and certifications
There have been no events or circumstances that would indicate that the carrying value of patents and certifications may be impaired at 30 June 2023

Prepaid inventory is recognised on inventory payments where physical delivery of that inventory has not yet been taken by the Group and is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
On 14 December 2022 the Company entered a US$ 10.0 million Investment Agreement with Riverfort Global Opportunities PCC LTD (Riverfort) and YA II PN, Ltd (Yorkville) (together, the Noteholders). The Investment Agreement was intended to provide additional working capital to the Company ahead of a planned fundraise.
An initial amount of US$ 2.5 million was drawn by the Company on inception of the facility (the First Advance). Amounts drawn under the Investment Agreement were convertible to ordinary shares of the Company at the option of each of Riverfort and Yorkville. To facilitate the conversion of amounts drawn by the Company under the Investment Agreement, a total of 2,700,038 ordinary shares (the Initial Shares) were issued in advance to Riverfort and Yorkville on a 50/ 50 basis.
Following the Company's successful fundraise in March 2023 the Investment Agreement was redeemed in full. At the redemption date 1,779,640 of the Initial Shares remained outstanding and held by the Noteholders.
To the extent that the Noteholders still held Initial Shares after the Facility had been repaid in full, the shares will be sold by the Noteholders with the relevant net proceeds remitted to the Company. To ensure an orderly market, the Company and the Noteholders agreed that, for a period of 24 months from the date of the Repayment Agreement, these remaining shares may only be sold following instruction from the Company, given an agreement that 97% of the net proceeds are to be remitted to the Company.
Because the Company will receive 97% of the proceeds on any sale of the Initial Shares that it instructs, the outstanding balance of the Initial Shares represent a financial asset to the Company.
Accordingly, the outstanding Initial Shares have been designated as Fair Value Through Profit and Loss in accordance with IFRS 9. The outstanding Initial Shares were recognised as a receivable at fair value based on the share price (32.5p) on the date of the agreement to repay all amounts outstanding under the Investment Agreement together with any relevant redemption charges.
At each reporting date going forward, any outstanding Initial Shares will be revalued by reference to the Company's share price (AIM:IES) and a fair value gain or loss based on the increase or decrease in the aggregate fair value of the outstanding Initial Shares will be recorded in profit and loss accordingly.

Warranty provision
The warranty provision represents management's best estimate of the costs anticipated to be incurred related to warranty claims, both current and future, from customers in respect of goods and services sold that remain within their warranty period. The estimate of future warranty costs is updated periodically based on the Company's actual experience of warranty claims from customers.
The element of the provision related to potential future claims is based on management's experience and is judgmental in nature. As for any product warranty, there is an inherent uncertainty around the likelihood and timing of a fault occurring that would cause further work to be undertaken or the replacement of equipment parts.
A standard warranty of up to two years from the date of commissioning is provided to all customers on goods and services sold and is included in the original cost of the product. Customers are also able to purchase extended warranties that extend the warranty period for up to a total of ten years.
Provision for legacy products
Where it is considered of commercial value, management has elected to provide ongoing maintenance for certain legacy products not otherwise covered under warranty. Management has determined that it is necessary to provide for the costs of this ongoing maintenance or to provide for outright decommissioning. The prior year presentation has been re-stated to reflect this.
Provisions in respect of legacy products are expected to unwind over the next two years when maintenance is either terminated or the products are decommissioned.
Provision for contract losses
A provision is established for contract losses when it becomes known that a contract has become onerous. A contract is onerous when the unavoidable costs of fulfilling the Group's obligations under a contract are greater than the revenue that will be earned from it.
The unavoidable costs of fulfilling contract obligations will include both direct and indirect costs.
The creation of an additional provision is recognised immediately in profit and loss. The provision is used to offset subsequent costs incurred as the contract moves to completion.
