- PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The inter-relationships with other Group companies and their support make the Company dependent on the Group to enable it to continue as a going concern...Having considered the financial position of the Group the Directors have no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern or its ability to fulfil its financial obligations.”
Significant events
- “In June 2025 the Group announced that it has entered into an agreement and exclusive negotiations with AEQUITA for the sale of select olefins and polyolefins assets and the associated business in Europe. The Carrington site is one of the assets to be included in this transaction. Closing of the proposed transaction is currently expected in the first half of 2026 subject to the completion of the information and consultation processes with the relevant employee representative bodies in accordance with applicable laws, as well as regulatory and other customary closing conditions.”
