DUBLIN, May 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fusion Fuel Green PLC (Nasdaq: HTOO) (“Fusion Fuel” or the “Company”), a provider of integrated energy solutions, today announced that it has executed non-binding Heads of Terms (“Heads of Terms”) with a privately-held United Kingdom-based fuel distribution business (“Target”) to acquire 100% of the equity of Target and certain related companies from their existing shareholders. The signing of the Heads of Terms follows the signing of a non-binding Letter of Intent between the parties, which was previously announced by the Company on April 9, 2025.

For the fiscal year ending April 30, 2024, Target generated revenues of approximately $50 million and net income of approximately $5 million. Target showed strong growth in the following fiscal year ending April 30, 2025, achieving revenues of approximately $58 million and net income of approximately $7 million. As of April 30, 2025, Target had no debt except for approximately $1 million under a revolving credit line. 1

Under the Heads of Terms, subject to execution of one or more definitive agreements with the existing shareholders of Target, Fusion Fuel will acquire the entire share capital of Target for total consideration of £50 million, consisting of £40 million in debt-financed cash and £10 million in Fusion Fuel ordinary shares in accordance with certain shareholder approval and securities registration requirements.

The Heads of Terms include equity value protection provisions with respect to the equity portion of the purchase price, consisting of certain downside price protection terms for the sellers, a buy-back option, and an upside cap provision.

It is anticipated that the definitive agreements will contain customary representations, warranties and covenants made by Fusion Fuel, Target, and Target’s shareholders, including covenants relating to the parties using their commercially reasonably efforts to cause the transactions contemplated by the agreement to be satisfied, covenants regarding obtaining the requisite approvals of directors and shareholders, indemnification of directors and officers, and Fusion Fuel and Target’s conduct of their respective businesses between the date of signing of definitive agreements and the closing, and other customary conditions to closing. It is anticipated that definitive agreements will also contain certain termination rights for both Fusion Fuel and Target, and, in connection with the termination of any such definitive agreements under certain circumstances, Fusion Fuel and Target may be required to pay the other party a termination fee. Entry into definitive agreements will also be subject to: (i) legal, tax and accounting structuring advice, (ii) the satisfactory completion of due diligence investigation by the parties on all aspects of business, operations, financial condition and other assets and liabilities appropriate for a transaction of this nature, and (iii) the satisfaction of the conditions described in the Heads of Terms.

Although generally non-binding, the Heads of Terms contain certain binding exclusivity and confidentiality terms and other binding terms and provisions. The Heads of Terms provides that Target will not solicit or negotiate with other parties for 90 days from signing of the Heads of Terms.

John-Paul Backwell, CEO of Fusion Fuel, commented: "The Heads of Terms mark another significant step in our growth journey. Target represents a strong and profitable business that complements our strategy of building a synergistic, diversified portfolio across the energy value chain. In particular, Target has a complimentary business to our Al Shola Gas brand, and has the potential to support and expand its service offerings.”
