“The directors have considered the financial position of the company as at the balance sheet date, including the net assets of £54,688,000 and net current assets of £47,389,000. The company also has a broad customer base, and a strong history of profitable operations. There are no indications that this will not continue to be the case through the foreseeable future. Noting the considerable financial resources available to the company, alongside the company's access to Sandoz global cash pooling arrangement, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, covering a period of at least 12 months from the issue of the financial statements. Therefore, they have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “At the Extraordinary General Meeting of Novartis AG shareholders held on September 15, 2023, Novartis AG ("Novartis Group", "Novartis" or "former parent") shareholders approved the proposed 100% spin-off of Sandoz through the distribution of a dividend in kind of Sandoz shares to Novartis shareholders, and of Sandoz American Depository Receipts ("ADR") to Novartis ADR holders. On October 4, 2023, Sandoz became an independent publicly traded company through a pro rata distribution by Novartis of 100% of the then outstanding shares of Sandoz to Novartis AG shareholders (the "spin-off").”
