Significant events
- “During the period, a dividend of £25.7 million was distributed to its shareholder, Office Retail Limited, as part of a corporate restructuring that resulted in the dissolution of Office Retail Limited (2024: £nil). Following this restructuring, the Company's shareholder changed to Truworths UK Holdco 3 Limited.”
- “The Company continued to invest significantly in its real estate and systems capabilities to capitalise on emerging opportunities. During the period, one new store was added (net of closures), and nine stores were renovated, relocated or expanded in line with the latest store design standards.”

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
