Significant events

• “On the 6 June 2024, CTS Eventim acquired the entire share capital of UK Ticketing Ltd, including its subsidiaries, See Group Ltd and the Company.”
• “The CTS Eventim acquisition has led to a change in strategy for the See Tickets international group, and the development of the platform project was ceased. As a result of the project ending, all capitalised costs to date were written off to the Income Statement during the reporting period.”
• “Following the acquisition by CTS Eventim AG in June 2024, a decision was taken to reassess the European group structure including Spain. This resulted in Entradas Eventim, a fellow CTS Eventim group company, acquiring the trade of See Entradas as of February 2025. In addition, the intercompany receivable due from See Entradas to The Way Ahead Group was converted to equity on 31 January 2025.”
• “On 1 August 2025 The Way Head Group entered into a property lease for a new office in Nottingham. The lease is 10 years in length with a 5-year break. The Company will move from its current location in Nottingham at a date to be determined, expected to be in 2026.”

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
