Anglian Water has confirmed that its shareholders have now injected £300 million of equity into the group.
The utility announced in May 2025 that the company’s shareholders had provided unconditional and legally binding commitments to inject £500 million into the Anglian Water Group, pro-rata to their current shareholdings.
Anglian said the investment reflects shareholders’ continuing confidence in both the business and the strength of its arguments to the CMA, as well as government’s recent commitment to address the long-term attractiveness of the sector to investors.
The shareholder equity commitment forms part of the group’s plans which were announced in March 2025 to strengthen the capital structure ahead of anticipated regulatory reforms and reflecting the group’s desire to maintain strong investment grade credit ratings.
The cash has been flowed down the group structure to Anglian Water (Osprey) Financing plc (the borrowing entity at midco which also includes Osprey Acquisitions Ltd), where it will be used to repay the £240 million 4% bond which matures in March 2026, as well as repayment of drawn bank revolving credit facilities.
The remaining £200 million balance of committed shareholder funding will be provided to the Group by early June 2026.
