- Going concern
- Affirmed
“No material uncertainties that cast significant doubt about the ability of the company to continue as a going concern have been identified by the directors. On the basis of their assessment of the company's financial position, the company's directors have a reasonable expectation that the company will be able to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”
Significant events
- “On June 9, 2025, the ultimate parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (WBD), announced that the Board has decided to separate Warner Bros. Discovery into two independent companies - each with its own leadership, strategy, and operational direction as well as distinct publicly traded entities: Warner Bros. and Discovery Global. This announcement represents a forward-looking statement.”
- “In the 2024 accounting period and prior years, the Company received tax losses for nil consideration of £3,459 being the estimated value of the gross losses received. The Group is reassessing its surrender of losses for group relief arising in these years in light of becoming aware of circumstances where a distribution may have taken place otherwise than in accordance with UK company law.”
