- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- KPMG LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“On the basis of their assessment of the Company's financial position and the letter of support provided as set out above, the Directors believe that the Company will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due and continue in operational existence for the going concern assessment period.”
Significant events
- “Profit for the year decreased compared to the previous year mainly due to higher losses on Euro denominated debt receivable as a result of the value of the Euro weakening against Sterling during the year.”
- “On 31 March 2025, the Company's intercompany loan receivable of £115.9m and associated accrued interest was settled. The Company used the proceeds of the loan repayment, a £78m drawdown under its revolving credit facilities and £118m of its existing cash reserves to repay the £300m Guaranteed Senior Notes and associated accrued interest.”

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
