Critical Dependencies
The UK's largest energy supplier, owner of British Gas, which reported weaker H1 2026 results with adjusted EBITDA of £737 million, down 18% from £900 million a year earlier, and adjusted EPS slipping to 6.8p from 7.0p amid a free cash outflow of £570 million, triggering a sharp 10%+ share price decline. Management cited the Middle East war's impact on Centrica Energy trading and underwhelming Retail growth, while still raising the interim dividend 9% and reiterating long-term targets of £2 billion EBITDA and doubled EPS by 2030, leaning further into infrastructure-led investments such as Sizewell B and Severn.
