Significant events

It undertook a restructuring exercise during the period which has reduced its headcount and given rise to termination costs of £57.0m (year ended 2 February 2024: £1.4m) in the period, which were in turn recharged to VIC under the intercompany operating agreement.”
- “On 1 September 2025, the Company has entered into a Business Transfer Agreement with Computer Associates Holdings Limited (a fellow subsidiary company, incorporated in the United Kingdom) to acquire its business and undertaking, including the assets and liabilities, with a book value of £1.4m for intercompany consideration payable of the same amount.”
