ANNUAL REPORT ONLINE SUMMARY 2026

ACTIVE STEWARDSHIP THROUGH A PERIOD OF TRANSFORMATION

“The Board is confident about DCC’s future. This confidence is underpinned by the Group’s strong cash generation, disciplined capital allocation, increased strategic focus on energy and a governance framework that supports resilience, adaptability and effective oversight.”

MARK BREUER, CHAIR

A FOCUSED GROUP WITH CLEAR PRIORITIES

“This year has represented a turning point for DCC. With our Group reshaped, our focus has shifted from simplification to execution – building positions that can deliver sustained growth and strong cash generation over the long term.”

DONAL MURPHY, CHIEF EXECUTIVE

The demand for energy continues to grow and is expected to increase steadily over the next decade, driven by population growth, economic development and rising electrification. Renewable energy will account for an increasing share of supply. But oil and gas are expected to remain a substantial part of the global energy mix, particularly where electrification is not yet technically or economically viable.

The nature of energy supply is therefore becoming more diverse and complex. And the pace of energy transition remains uneven across regions and sectors, reflecting differences in infrastructure, cost, policy and energy security priorities.

• Continued demand for liquid fuels and gas supports resilient cash generation in core markets.
• Fragmentation and complexity create structural opportunities for scaled energy distributors.
• Customers will require flexible, multi-source supply and transition pathways.
• Growth in electricity and related services increases demand for integrated, multi-energy solutions.

DCC Energy is positioned to benefit from these dynamics through our scale, geographic reach and ability to provide both traditional and lower-carbon energy solutions.
