Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The Directors remain confident in the Company's ability to continue operating as a going concern for the foreseeable future. In prior year, due to Group funding arrangements and insufficient liquidity at the Group level, there was doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, on 28 April 2025, the Group completed a series of financing transactions and received funding of new money of $250 million from existing lenders. The new funding reduced the principal amount outstanding and extended debt maturities. The financing transactions provided the Group with more liquidity and a reduced level of constraint from the debt covenant.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
