“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.”
Significant events

- “On 30 September 2023, World Programming Limited, a subsidiary of the company, transferred its trade and assets to Altair Engineering Limited. This resulted in an impairment of the investment in World Programming Limited, which is recognised within exceptional items (note 6).”
- “On 26th March 2025, Altair Engineering Incorporated was acquired by Siemens Aktiengesellschaft.”
