4 Revenue and segmental information

 

The Group determines and presents operating segments based on the information that is provided internally to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”), which is the Group’s chief operating decision maker.

 

Management analyzes our business in five reportable segments: Critical Power Services, Electric Vehicles, Sustainable Energy Solutions, Solar Development and Corporate Office. Critical Power Services is represented by VivoPower’s wholly owned subsidiary Aevitas. In turn, Aevitas wholly owns Kenshaw Solar Pty Ltd (previously J.A. Martin) (“Aevitas Solar”) and Kenshaw Electrical Pty Limited (“Kenshaw”), both of which operate in Australia with a focus on the design, supply, installation and maintenance of critical power, control and distribution systems, including for solar farms. Electric Vehicles is represented by Tembo e-LV B.V. (“Tembo”), a Netherlands-based specialist battery-electric and off-road vehicle company delivering electric vehicles (“EV”) for mining and other rugged industrial customers globally. Sustainable Energy Solutions (“SES”) is the design, evaluation, sale and implementation of renewable energy infrastructure to customers, both on a standalone basis and in support of Tembo EVs. Solar Development is represented by Caret and comprises 12 solar projects in the United States. Corporate Office is the Company’s corporate functions, including costs to maintain the Nasdaq public company listing, comply with applicable SEC reporting requirements, and related investor relations and is located in the U.K.

 

 

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including any revenues and expenses that relate to the transactions with any of the Group’s other components. Operating segments results are reviewed regularly by the Board to assess its performance and make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment, and for which discrete financial information is available.

 

Segment results that are reported to the Board include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated to a segment on a reasonable basis.

 

4.1 Revenue

 

Revenue from continuing operations by product and service as of half year ended December 31, 2023 is as follows:

 

 Schedule of products and services

(US dollars in thousands)  2023   2022 
   Six months ended December 31 
(US dollars in thousands)  2023   2022 
   unaudited   audited 
Electrical products and related services   5,910    7,821 
Electric vehicles & related products & services   -    912 
Total revenue   5,910    8,733 

 

Revenue from continuing operations in the first six months ending December 31, 2023, was $5.9 million, down from $8.7 million in the first half of the prior fiscal year.

 

Revenue from continuing operations of the Critical Power Services businesses, Kenshaw, was $5.9 million for the period, a decrease of 24% compared to the $7.8 million earned in the comparative period in FY23. This comprised a 100% reduction in solar project revenue in Aevitas Solar ($2.8m) due to there being no active projects during the current period, compared to having one major active project, Edenvale. This was partially offset by an increase of 18% ($0.9m) due to an increase in core business.

 

Revenue in Electric Vehicle division was not recognised during the half year ended 31 December 2023 notwithstanding the receipt of some deposits for orders. This reflects a conservative accounting policy that only recognises revenue upon full deliver of the vehicles. In addition, it reflects the cessation of non-electric vehicle related revenues (that formed part of the legacy Tembo business).

 

Revenue from continuing operations by geographic location is follows:
