- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have reviewed the current financial performance and position of the company and are confident that it will not lead to the company no longer being a going concern. In the unlikely event that it is not possible for the company to meet its liabilities as they fall due and also due to the centralised cash pooling arrangements, the ultimate parent company Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. has agreed to provide continued financial support to the company for the foreseeable future, for at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements, to meet its obligations as and when they fall due.”
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: WBD Global Networks and WBD Streaming and Studios.”

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
