Significant events
- “Within the year there were a few key issues to highlight: Energy and Inflation: Energy has a significant impact on the cost of Rittal CSM Limited. The government support scheme ceased at the end of March 2023 and as a result the company bore the higher costs from our existing fixed term contract at the end of September. We entered into new fixed term contracts for both gas and electricity in October 2023 which are valid until the end of 2026 and these are fully costed into our business plan going forward.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
