this is an interesting snippet:
Due to the nature of the Group's business, it has accumulated significant tax losses since incorporation. The Group has $487.9 million of ring-fenced trading losses at 31 December 2019 and other allowances and supplementary charge losses of $761.0 million, which have no expiry date and would be available for offset against future trading profits. Following commencement of production from the Lancaster EPS, positive cash flows from operations, data analysed to date and estimates of future taxable profits, a deferred tax asset of $54.3 million has been recognised in respect of some of these trading losses and a corresponding tax credit recognised in the Income Statement.
