This is from AFC's Q&A, I don't really understand it.
Q: Can AFC Energy shed light on the transaction in which it disposed of its interest in Waste2tricity
in 2019, particularly in light of the recent announcements pertaining to Waste2tricity’s relationship
with Powerhouse Energy?
A: Whilst AFC Energy has in the past had commercial relations with both Powerhouse Energy and
Waste2tricity, those relationships no longer exist. Since 2015, when AFC Energy’s appointed director
resigned from the Board, the Company has not been privy to any information other than that in the
public domain. The severance of commercial relations was completed last year (2019) with both the
sale of our investment in Waste2tricity and the termination of the licence agreements.
This year in accordance with IFRS 9 we were required to reconsider the opening fair value of our
investment and as stated in our annual financial statements:
“The Directors have adopted IFRS 9 with effect from 1 November 2019 and have estimated the fair
value using hierarchy level 3. The estimated fair value of the investment in Waste2Tricity remains de
minimis as reported last year, due to the uncertainty at the time of disposal of future cash flows and
the lack of marketability of the shares.”
