"The singular consideration is whether RR PLC is licensing their technology to RR LTD .. if they are then that should be accounted for in regular income.."
Nope. No licensing agreement. (I sound like I hate RR at the moment) 😀 I honestly don't, I've got a lot of shares in them.
RR PLC in the future WILL gain from RR SMR LTD (of course they will) - but looking at RR SMR LTD as a company, (anyone can do that by the way):
https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/13039768
And if you go further into accounts, it's bankrupt as hell but it has the facility of draw down from the entities that are parent companies to RR SMR LTD.
That's not important.
What IS important is if/when RR SMR Ltd decide to no longer act as a sole supplier and pass their divs through to their respective holding companies, in our case RR PLC (that share we own).
Now, I'll say this till I'm long in the tooth, but any LTD company operating under a controlled holding company will/and do exhaust all tax benefits of said LTD company to the hilt. As RR SMR Ltd aren't fully owned by RR PLC, we will see huge wages/bonuses/divs paid to the members of RR SMR Ltd and (as I said from day one), those holding shares in RR PLC will question it - "Why isn't that on the balance sheet of RR PLC?"
The impetus in growth from RR SMR Ltd was always going to be the idea that the hedges and pensions input through grade listing. Their insurances don't cover an idea of investing in companies that aren't at least BB+ at least, and the credit ratings with such news get's the rating flowing.
I'm seen it so many times, and I've said this time and time again in my blog - "An SP is only worth what the credit agencies say it's worth".
Which is why ALWAYS deal with MCaps - I then know what a share is worth based on "is it below market value?" "do I see an increase/decrease from competitive markets?".... hence this:

The single best tool that got me from 97p RR PLC to £9 RR PLC.
This is an abomination of a post here but that's my thoughts guys.
To surmise:
• RR PLC will NOT see any credit from RR SMR LTD for years to come (balance sheet wise)
• RR PLC will gain from non educated funds purchasing shares in the interim which will boost the SP
• RR PLC will gain from core tech (such as the introduction of narrow body) as this will directly hit the balance sheet, hence the SP in quarter updates
• RR PLC will get to £12 come end of year base on foley but will soon retract to £8/£9 because the balance sheet doesn't show the impetus those investing wish to think it might.
I said £70bln MCap come Feb 2025 from day one (5 years ago) and those that know me, know that is exactly what I said at that time. 75Bln with SMR input?, maybe - I'll go with that.
£12 comes end of year due to Narrow Body announcement (yep, it will happen), and then it's a ball in the sky guess.
