Supported by the commercial terms within our frameworks, the Group has been able to successfully alleviate inflation challenges throughout the period, delivering operating profit and revenue ahead of strong prior half-year comparatives. Our results in a difficult macroeconomic environment highlight the strength of our business model, which is underpinned by committed regulatory spending periods and long-term frameworks resulting in repeatable revenue streams and highly visible earnings. Further, the mission-critical nature of the work we perform fosters long-lasting relationships with our clients illustrated through our strong track record of repeat contract wins.
None of this success would be possible without the outstanding work of our directly employed colleagues who continue to go above and beyond for our clients. I would like to thank, on behalf of the Board, all our dedicated workforce for their outstanding and continued commitment to providing our clients with our mission critical, highly responsive services at all times.
With ongoing strong demand in our end markets, we enter the second half of the year confident in our full year performance and, longer term, in the attractiveness of the structural growth drivers. We welcomed the Government's reiterated commitment to a record GBP600bn investment in transforming the UK's infrastructure to meet the target of net zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Chief Executive Officer's Review
Consistent year on year outperformance demonstrates our differentiated model
The Group has once again delivered an outstanding trading performance over the first six months of the financial year, demonstrating the resilience and differentiated nature of our high-quality, low-risk business model, combined with ongoing strong demand we have seen in our end markets.
This consistent year on year outperformance has been achieved despite the turbulence in the wider economy and is a result of our unique business model which is extremely resilient because of a number of key characteristics. We work in markets underpinned by highly visible, reliable and repeatable committed regulatory spending periods which are subject to long term multi-year contracts providing our business with predictable and recurring revenue streams.
Our brands within the Renew family have long-term relationships in place with all our stakeholders and have a strong track record of winning repeat contracts with our clients due to the quality of the work performed by our directly employed workforce.
Supported by the commercial terms within our frameworks, the Group has been able to successfully manage inflation challenges throughout the period, delivering operating profit and revenue ahead of strong prior half-year comparatives. Our track record of consistent year on year growth across all our key financial metrics clearly illustrates the critical nature of the work we do for our clients and the committed, long-term spending cycles that underpin our end markets. Our focus on asset maintenance and renewal means we are not dependent on large, capital-intensive contract awards, providing Renew with a significantly lower risk profile than others operating in our sectors.
During the period, it was encouraging to see the Government's Autumn Statement re-confirm a commitment to a record GBP600bn [2] investment in transforming the UK's infrastructure to meet the target of net zero carbon emissions by 2050. Further, in March 2023, the Government announced [3] ambitious plans to scale up affordable, clean, homegrown power and build thriving green industries to boost the UK's energy security and independence which offers further opportunities for growth. With pressure on public expenditure as a result of the difficult macroeconomic environment, we are seeing an increased focus on maintaining and renewing existing assets instead of major infrastructure enhancement projects which bodes well for our business and our well-established strategy.
We were particularly pleased with our rate of organic growth during the period. This was understandably, in part, linked to the current levels of inflation, but it was also driven by the continued focus on collaboration between our brands. Over the first half of the year, we have successfully implemented a joint venture between our brands in the Highways market, and we are seeing a growing opportunity for collaboration in the Water sector. This pleasing organic growth performance combined with our strong balance sheet and significant cash generation, gives us the firepower and flexibility to invest in further value-accretive M&A opportunities.
Following the successful acquisition of Enisca in November 2022, I am pleased to report the business is integrating well into the Renew family and is trading in line with management's expectations. Across our sectors we continue to actively appraise M&A opportunities that fit within our strict acquisition criteria and will complement our existing capabilities and extend our footprint into our target markets in the UK.
After an outstanding FY22, the first six months of FY23 clearly demonstrate the consistent and resilient nature of our business model. We enter the second half of the year with good momentum and a strong forward order book which underpins our confidence in our full year outturn. We are seeing continued demand for our services across all our markets and that is largely due to the outstanding work of our directly employed colleagues who continue to go above and beyond for our clients. I would like to thank, on behalf of the Board, all our dedicated workforce for their outstanding and continued commitment to providing our clients with our mission critical, highly responsive services at all times.
Renew's strengths
Renew has a number of core strengths which provide distinct competitive advantages in our chosen markets and leave us well placed to build on our strong track record of long-term value creation:
-- The health, safety and wellbeing of our colleagues, and those impacted by our work, remains
our number one priority and we have implemented industry-leading safe working practices for
the Group's employees and operations.
-- We operate a differentiated, diversified, low-risk business model, providing critical asset
maintenance and renewals services that are not dependent on large, high-risk, capital-intensive
contract awards.
-- Our directly employed workforce enables us to provide a more efficient and valuable service
to our clients, reducing our exposure to sub-contractor pricing volatility and being able
to deliver extremely responsive solutions.
-- The commercial terms within our frameworks mean we are able to proactively and effectively
manage cost inflation.
-- Our businesses are well established in complex, challenging and highly regulated markets with
significant barriers to entry, which demand a highly skilled and experienced workforce and
a proven track record of safe delivery.
-- We work in markets underpinned by resilient, long-term growth dynamics and highly visible,
reliable, committed regulatory spending periods, providing predictable cashflows.
-- We have a proven track record of sustainable value creation, reliable revenue growth and strong
returns on capital thanks to our highly cash generative earnings model and clearly defined
strategy.
-- We are committed to growing the business both organically and through selective complementary
acquisitions while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation and risk underpinned
by a strong balance sheet.
-- We have strong relationships in place with all our stakeholders, from our workforce to our
customers, suppliers, communities and shareholders.
-- Our model of compounding earnings through the redeployment of internally generated cashflows
enables us to execute on our strategy of delivering reliable and consistent growth for all
our stakeholders.
Compelling market drivers
Our businesses bring exposure to attractive long-term, non-discretionary structural growth drivers. Increasing demand for the maintenance and renewal of existing UK infrastructure is driven by a number of factors including:
-- a commitment by the Government to level up the economy by investing GBP600bn [4] in an infrastructure-led
recovery, two-thirds of which will be in the transport and energy sectors, with fiscal stimulus
measures likely to flow through to lower cost infrastructure maintenance programmes ahead
of larger, more capital-intensive enhancement schemes;
-- greater focus on sustainability and climate change as part of the UK's target of reaching
net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, together with flood risk prevention measures and investment
in nuclear projects, renewables and rail electrification programmes;
-- population growth increasing the pressure on transportation, energy, water and demand for
natural resources;
-- technological innovation driving a shift towards digital roads, smart cities and the transformation
of transport and telecommunications networks; and
-- increased Government regulation to improve safety, efficiency and resilience of key infrastructure
assets leading to more demanding maintenance, renewal and upgrading requirements.
Results overview
During the period, Group revenue increased to GBP471.8m (HY22: GBP414.3m), which includes a contribution from Enisca since December as well as organic growth of 11.6%. The Group achieved an adjusted [5] operating profit of GBP28.3m (HY22: GBP26.0m) and adjusted(5) operating profit margin of 6.0% (HY22: 6.3%). As at 31 March 2023, the Group had pre-IFRS16 net cash of GBP17.0m (31 March 2022: net debt GBP1.2m). The Group's order book at 31 March 2023 has strengthened to GBP890m (HY22: GBP771m) underpinned by long-term framework positions.
Dividend
The Group's resilient trading performance, cash position and strong forward order book have given the Board the confidence to declare an interim dividend of 6.00p (HY22: 5.67p) per share. This represents a 5.8 per cent increase on the last interim dividend paid. This will be paid on 12 July 2023 to shareholders on the register as at 9 June 2023, with an ex-dividend date of 8 June 2023.
Board changes
As announced on 15 August 2022, Elizabeth (Liz) Barber, was appointed as a Non-Executive Director effective 1 November 2022. Liz brings a wealth of experience gained over 12 years in the regulated water sector, an established and growing market for Renew following the acquisition of Enisca in November. Combined with her financial background, Liz will complement the Board's current skillset and will be invaluable as we continue our growth journey.
Engineering Services
Our Engineering Services activities account for over 98 per cent of the Group's adjusted(5) operating profit and delivered revenue of GBP435.8m (HY22: GBP377.5m) with an adjusted(5) operating profit of GBP29.7m (HY22: GBP26.6m) resulting in an operating margin of 6.8% (HY22: 7.1%). Our Engineering Services organic growth rate in the period was 12.9%. At 31 March 2023, the Engineering Services order book was GBP780m (31 March 2022: GBP705m). The Group's resilient performance was driven by continued positive momentum in our Rail, Infrastructure and Environmental sectors.
Rail
Network Rail, a significant strategic customer for the Group, is expected to invest GBP44bn [6] over Control Period 7 ("CP7"), which runs from 2024 to 2029 with expenditure expected to focus on operations, maintenance, and renewal of the national rail network. This highlights and plays to our strengths as does the Government's commitment to a rail decarbonisation programme including a significant investment in electrification programmes, as part of the overall UK target to deliver net zero by 2050.
As the largest provider of multidisciplinary maintenance and renewals engineering services to Network Rail, we support the day-to-day operation of the rail network nationally, directly delivering essential asset maintenance through our long-term frameworks. The Group assists Network Rail through our mission-critical renewals and maintenance services supporting assets including bridges, embankments, tunnels, drainage systems, signalling, electrification, devegetation, fencing and plant.
During the period, we successfully secured new CP7 framework positions with Wales & Western, on their Wales Structures and Wales & Western Electrification & Plant frameworks. These 5-year frameworks will be delivered through a unique collaboration between our rail brands and would not have been possible without our acquisition of REL in 2021. REL is a leading provider of high-quality services associated with the installation and commissioning of Overhead Line Electrification (OLE) and their capabilities, in conjunction with our existing rail brands, have opened up framework positions to the Group that were previously unattainable. This framework will see the Group deliver a broad scope of Electrification & Plant rail systems, including low and high voltage power and OLE, creating efficiencies and developing innovation on behalf of Network Rail. Our success in securing this long-term framework sets a platform to unlock similar opportunities across other Network Rail regions in their ongoing CP7 framework procurement activity.
As stated in our final results announced in November 2022 we have secured extensions to major CP6 frameworks including in Scotland which, in conjunction with our recent appointment in Wales & Western, leaves the Group ideally positioned as we move into the next control period.
Network Rail's five devolved regions recently began the process of re-procuring their Asset Maintenance and Capital Delivery frameworks for the next control period. Similarly, the Office of Rail Regulation recently outlined its Statement of Funds for CP7 which sets out a comparable investment to CP6 [7] and will likely place a greater emphasis on maintenance and renewals activities. The final determination funding plans are expected to be confirmed in the first half of 2024.
While we remain mindful of recent speculation that public expenditure budgets for CP7 may be constrained, we are not currently seeing any indication that would suggest the level of demand for our services is reducing. In fact, we continue to see record demand for our services which is illustrated by our trading momentum as well as a strong forward order book. Further, recent success stories like our framework awards in Wales & Western demonstrate the growing capabilities within our business when we leverage the expertise within our brands through collaboration.
The compelling maintenance-focused structural growth drivers within this sector and Renew's high quality engineering expertise leaves the Group ideally positioned to deliver long term, profitable growth in Rail. Our teams remain focused on securing our existing frameworks which are coming up for renewal while continuously appraising other areas for organic growth. The early stages of increased electrification on the rail network bode well for future CP7 framework applications where our three rail brands have formed a collaborative and unique position for OLE delivery, another key strategic growth pillar for the Group.
Infrastructure
Highways
The Group continued to make good operational and strategic progress within the Highways segment in the first half, delivering essential asset maintenance and critical infrastructure renewals underpinned by non-discretionary regulatory requirements.
The UK Government's second Road Investment Strategy ("RIS2") (2020-2025) committed an unprecedented level of spending on England's strategic road network. Of the GBP24bn [8] committed over a five-year period, GBP11.9bn of this funding is ringfenced for operations, maintenance and renewals which gives Renew a unique advantage from which it has continued to benefit.
During the period, work continued on the National Highways Scheme Delivery Framework ("SDF") across five framework lots, covering civil engineering, road restraint systems and drainage disciplines, worth GBP147m over six years. The Group operates as a Tier 1 supplier and continues to leverage the combined expertise of its brands, delivering the road restraint lots through a joint venture between two subsidiary businesses, illustrating the synergies and efficiencies that can be achieved through collaboration. This is the only successful joint venture on the SDF and positions the Group as the second largest supplier of road restraint systems in the country.
As we look ahead to RIS3 (2025-2030), for which the Government recently began a market consultation, it appears that critical maintenance and renewals, as opposed to significant enhancement projects, will come into even sharper focus. Emma Ward, director general for the Roads, Places and Environment group at the Department for Transport said on RIS3 "the headroom for enhancement projects is likely to be less. We also have an ageing network, so the importance of renewals and maintenance actually increases over time." [9] This continued emphasis on renewals and maintenance plays well into the Group's capabilities as we move into RIS3 and Renew remains uniquely placed to seize attractive growth and market share opportunities within Highways.
Aviation
The Group continues to see growing momentum in Aviation following its appointment to the 5-year Manchester Airports Group GBP700m Civils Framework to deliver medium-sized civil-engineering projects valued between GBP3m - GBP10m. Work began at Manchester Airport during the period where the Group undertakes electro-mechanical and civil engineering services. With passenger levels this summer predicted to exceed pre-Covid levels as well as several years of underinvestment in critical assets in the industry, the tailwinds in this sector are clear. It is particularly pleasing to have organically grown this capability within the Group and it is an area of increased focus as we look to continue to grow in this segment.
Wireless Telecoms
The nation's connectivity is becoming ever more critical in the digital age, and as a result the wireless telecoms sector contains many attractive growth drivers. An estimated GBP30bn [10] is required to upgrade the nation's broadband networks to gigabit-capable speeds, which includes the UK Government's GBP5bn investment in the roll-out of 5G, and the expansion of the Shared Rural Network, the Government's GBP500m programme to extend 4G mobile coverage to 95% of the UK.
As a leader in the wireless telecommunications market, we have exposure to all of these opportunities, holding long-term relationships, through framework agreements, with the main UK network operators, and managed service providers.
During the period, the Group continued to broaden its customer base and progressed well in our works with Vodafone, EE and BT to remove Huawei equipment from UK networks by 2027, a critical regulatory target. Strong progress was also made with the design, construction and commissioning of both 4G and 5G technology for all of the UK network operators.
Energy
Nuclear
Having worked for over 75 years in the UK's civil nuclear market, we provide a multidisciplinary service through our large complement of highly skilled employees who operate to demanding nuclear standards, including decontamination and decommissioning services, operational support and asset care, as well as waste retrieval in high hazard areas such as legacy storage ponds and silos.
The Government's total nuclear decommissioning provision is estimated at GBP124bn [11] over the next 120 years, with around 75% of the total spend allocated to Sellafield which is the largest of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority's sites and where we remain a principal Mechanical, Electrical and Instrumentation services provider.
We continue to operate across a number of long-term frameworks at Sellafield and during the period the Group secured further framework positions as part of the Project Partnership Programme ("PPP") . Appointed by all four PPP Key Delivery Partners, the framework runs for a further 17 years through to 2040 and will see the Group deliver critical Mechanical, Electrical and HVAC services. The main PPP framework is worth up to GBP7bn [12] over its 20-year duration.
We continue to build relationships outside of Sellafield, broadening opportunities for decommissioning services that are in increasing demand at other UK nuclear facilities.
While the work we do in this sector is predominantly focused on decommissioning and hazard waste removal, the recent Government Energy Security Plan, Powering Up Britain, suggests that new nuclear will offer further growth opportunities in the future. The UK Government has committed to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, and decarbonisation of our energy supply is a key step to achieve carbon neutrality. The Government is delivering a radical shift in the UK energy system towards cleaner, more affordable energy sources of which new nuclear is an essential component. This is underpinned by the creation of Great British Nuclear [13] and the Government's target to commence construction of up to three new nuclear plants in the next 10 years. [14] This provides long-term and sustainable demand for our specialist site services as well as our manufacturing capabilities in high grade nuclear components.
Electric Vehicle Charging
The UK Government's commitment to ban the sale of non-electric new cars by 2030 provides the Group with another exciting growth opportunity. This target has been identified as a key priority in supporting the Government's net zero emissions targets as well as its ambition to become the fastest nation in the G7 to decarbonise road transport. [15] Further, in the Government's Green Day announcements, GBP381m was committed to the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure fund to help install tens of thousands of new charging points across the country [16] to add to the GBP950m committed to the Rapid Charging Fund. During the period we continued to design and construct charging facilities for large fleet operators and we are exploring further opportunities in this sector and see it as an exciting growth avenue going forward.
Environmental
Water
Following the acquisition of Enisca in November 2022 and Browne in 2021, the Group's water division continues to go from strength to strength. Enisca represents an excellent strategic fit, adding new capabilities and clients to our water business and broadening the Group's footprint in the sector. Enisca is integrating well with the wider Group and is trading in-line with management's expectations.
Our offer of scheduled maintenance and renewals services in addition to extensive 24/7 emergency reactive works is further enhanced by the addition of Enisca's Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Controls and Automation ("MEICA") capabilities and expands the mission-critical services we provide to our clients around the UK.
We continue to benefit from the UK Government's commitment to spend GBP51bn over AMP7 [17] into 2025 and have seen an expansion in investment through our clients' operational expenditure budgets. For the rest of AMP7 we expect to see an increasingly accelerated programme of regulatory spend over the final years, given the lower level of expenditure in the early part of the cycle.
We have strengthened relationships with our existing clients which includes 12 regulated water companies.
In the period we secured places on the D r Cymru Welsh Water Major Civils, Major Electrical and Major Mechanical frameworks, each lasting for up to 8 years, and we renewed our Pressurised Pipeline framework with the same client. Elsewhere we secured places on Thames Water's Waste Network Services framework and Severn Trent's Capital Delivery Programme.
Other highlights included the start of our work on Wessex Water's Phosphorus Removal Programme, the award of further batches of mains renewal works for Thames Water, and the continued success of our Repair & Maintenance framework for Southern Water in a joint venture.
As in other sectors, we are continuing to leverage collaborative potential between our brands and are increasingly seeing opportunities to combine our expertise. This will be particularly beneficial as we move into AMP8 (2025-2030) where we expect to see greater investment than in previous cycles. Procurement for AMP8 commenced recently and it was outlined at the 2023 Wastewater conference that "substantial investment will be needed now and all the way through the next few AMPs". [18] At the conference, John Russel, Senior Director Strategy, Finance and Infrastructure at Ofwat suggested that this level of investment will need to be two to three times the current level to achieve the objectives they have set out. [19] Russel also indicated that the sector needs to focus more on asset maintenance which plays to the strengths of our business model and leaves Renew well positioned to benefit from these trends in the Water market as companies increase expenditure on capital maintenance and asset optimisation.
Flood & Coastal
Changing weather conditions have highlighted the need for investment in flood defences, and the UK Government has committed GBP5.2bn [20] from 2021-2027 to improve flood defence infrastructure. Of this, GBP1.6bn [21] is directed towards coastal erosion and sea flooding projects where the Group currently undertakes work for the Environment Agency ("EA") on the EA Flood and Coastal Erosion Framework.
With growing investment in the segment, and increased pressure on our Government to improve the UK's resilience for climate change, the Group is well-positioned to expand its presence in the sector. We also continue to work on national frameworks for the Canal and River Trust, Scottish Canals and Natural Resources Wales.
Land Remediation and Specialist Restoration
In Land Remediation, we have seen sustained demand for our specialist environmental services during the period, including an extension of our Land Regeneration framework with National Grid.
Our specialist restoration and conservation services progressed at Lambeth Palace, at the Edinburgh Botanical Gardens and at the Parliamentary Estate where we continue to target long-term growth opportunities.
Specialist Building
Our Specialist Building business focuses on the Science, Landmark and High Quality Residential, markets in London and the Home Counties.
Revenue was in line with expectations at GBP36.0m (HY22: GBP36.9m), with operating profit of GBP0.5m (HY22: GBP0.6m) and operating margin of 1.4% (HY22: 1.6%). The order book has strengthened to GBP110m (HY22: GBP66.0m), providing good visibility for the second half and into 2024.
ESG
It is well recognised that investment into low carbon infrastructure will be fundamental in delivering the Government's ambitions of delivering net zero emissions in the UK by 2050. From the rail network and digitally assisted roads to high-speed telecoms and clean energy, Renew has a key enabling role to play on the frontline of efforts to decarbonise the economy.
During the period we were pleased to retain our LSE Green Economy Mark, which recognises London-listed companies and funds that derive more than 50% of their revenues from products and services that are contributing to the environmental objectives such as climate change mitigation and adaptation, waste and pollution reduction, and the circular economy.
We continue to focus our energy on and are making progress against our four key areas:
-- climate action; -- operating responsibly; -- empowering our people; and -- building social value.
During the period, our subsidiary businesses undertook a range of initiatives including volunteering and community support, trialling the use of alternative, cleaner energy sources to power our sites and the procurement of electrical and hybrid vehicles across our businesses.
We have established quantitative sustainability targets in our four key areas to embed our ESG strategy across the business and it is the Board's ambition that the Group will achieve net zero by no later than 2040. We look forward to providing a more detailed update on progress against these targets at our Final Results in November 2023.
Health & Safety
Health and safety is at the heart of everything that we do and the Group remains dedicated to ensuring safe working practices for all employees and those who work with us. Our SHEQ performance in the first half was strong and ahead of the targets we set ourselves.
Outlook - strong momentum entering H2; confidence in full year outturn
After an outstanding FY22, the first six months of FY23 again reiterate the differentiated qualities and resilient nature of our business model, and we have once again grown against record prior half-year comparatives.
Whilst we are not immune from the continuing inflationary headwinds in the economy, our business is well placed to mitigate their impact due to the nature of our variable, cost-plus contracts. Trading has started well in the second half of the year and our strong forward order book underpins our confidence that the full year will be in line with the Board's expectations.
In addition to the Government's GBP600bn [22] commitment to transform the UK's infrastructure, we read with interest the Government's announcements in March which show it has sharpened its focus on investment in infrastructure to improve climate resilience and energy self-sufficiency, investing in renewable sources and nuclear capabilities [23] . Consequently, longer term we also believe the structural growth drivers in our end markets are extremely attractive and we remain well positioned to seize both organic and acquisitive growth opportunities in line with our strategic priorities and ambitions.

Goodwill of GBP10,360,000 arose on acquisition and is attributed to the expertise and workforce of
the acquired
business. Other intangible assets provisionally valued at GBP11,330,000, which represent customer
relationships
and contractual rights, were also acquired and will be amortised over their useful economic lives
in accordance
with IAS 38. Deferred tax has been provided on this amount. Amortisation of this intangible asset
commenced
