- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events

- “Their achievements earned recognition well beyond Rugby League as they were named Team of the Year in the BBC's Sports Personality Awards for 2024”
- “BBC Sport's extended coverage of Rugby League under a new three-year deal to run alongside the continued investment and coverage from Sky Sports had been one of the major features of the 2024 season.”

- “Bevan French won the Lance Todd Trophy as player of the match, his second such award of the year”
- “French went on to complete a unique treble at Old Trafford in October, when he scored the only try in Wigan's 9-2 win against Ilull KR – a brilliant solo effort to win the first Rob Burrow Award.”
- “Leeds announced the end of Burrow's heroic battle against Motor Neurone Disease on the evening of Sunday June 2, six days before the Challenge Cup Final”
- “St Helens beat Leeds Rhinos in the second Betfred Women's Challenge Cup Final at Wembley exactly as they had done in the first, this time with a convincing 22-0 scorclinc”

- “Leeds Rhinos securing their first Betfred Wheelchair Super League title since 2021 with a 52-32 win against Halifax Panthers”
- “Jodie Cunningham's Saints were denied a league and cup double despite finishing top of the BWSL table by four points. That earned them home advantage in the Grand Final but they were stunned by Lindsay Anfield's York Valkyrie, who won 18-8 to secure their second consecutive BWSL title”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
