“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. Our evaluation of the directors' assessment of the company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included considering the accuracy of historical forecasts, challenging and corroborating management assumptions and additionally obtaining a letter of support from the ultimate group parent.”

Significant events
- “On 12 December 2024, the entire issued share capital of Entertainment Magpie Limited was indirectly acquired by AO World PLC as part of the wider acquisition of musicMagpie PLC. The transaction was completed via a Court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under which AO Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of AO World PLC, acquired musicMagpie PLC, the former parent company of Entertainment Magpie Limited. As a result, Entertainment Magpie Limited became a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of AO World PLC.”
- “Following completion, AO Group undertook a refinancing of the broader group structure, including the repayment of external debt held by Entertainment Magpie Group Limited, an intermediate holding company. This refinancing has left the wider business group, including Entertainment Magpie Liniited, in a debt-free position.”
