Based on the estimated liquidity position and the level of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and the available borrowing capacity under the credit facility, in addition to the prospects for continued generation of cash from operating activities, the Director believes that the Group has sufficient liquidity to meet the Company's short- and medium-term business needs and obligations for the period to 30 September 2026.”

Significant events
- “During the year the Company participated in a group re-organisation exercise amongst certain UK subsidiaries which was carried out in order to simplify various company balance sheets by dealing with legacy items. A distribution, by way of a dividend in specie of £66,284,748, was received from a subsidiary undertaking RBAG Legacy Holdings Limited.”
- “In order for the dividend to be paid, a recapitalisation of the Company was undertaken via the issuance of 3,406,246 £1 shares on 14 October 2024 which funds were used to increase the investment in the Company's subsidiary on the same date by subscribing for further shares to the same value as part of that company's recapitalisation.”

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
