Looking ahead, says it is optimistic a transaction can be secured to further its prospects and deliver value to shareholders.

Chief Executive Officer Paul Gazzard says: "It has been a tough few months for DKE as we have taken some hard decisions to dispose of assets no longer able to achieve our required regulatory goals. However we look forward to continuing to pursue alternative routes to secure a deal for the company that can bring value for shareholders. We look forward to updating the market with more developments soon as they are delivered."
