Affirmed

Significant events

• “On a pro rata basis, due to the prior period being 18 months, the company has seen a 1.5% decrease in sales, driven by a decrease in distributions sales, although this has been largely offset by an increase in commission income and manufacturing sales.”
• “The Company has carried out research and development activities, predominantly in the fragrance division, which in the current period had an estimated cost of £4,054,000 (2023: £6,082,000).”
• “At the Thirsk site, there has been a completion of works to improve the efficiency and utilisation of the process equipment which has enabled a reduction in energy usage alongside more localised batch size efficiencies.”
• “During the period the Company made donations to charities totalling £11,000 (2023: £595).”
• “In 2023, the Scheme bought an annuity buy-in contract. This buy-in represents the third tranche of benefits being secured by an insurer.”
• “In June 2023, the High Court handed down a decision in the case of Virgin Media Limited v NTL Pension Trustees II Limited and others relating to the validity of certain historical pension changes due to the lack of actuarial confirmation required by law. In July 2024, the Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal.”
