Material uncertainty over going concern
As noted above, the Company largely ceased operations with effect from October 2020. Accordingly, the Directors have not prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. There was no impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities from this change.

Significant events
- “In 2019, the Group decided to restructure its Global Travel Retail channel by centring these activities on a new Group undertaking set up in Hong Kong. The Group terminated its licences with the Company after giving due notice. Consequently, the Directors decided that the Company should largely cease operations with effect from October 2020, with no intention to reinstate trading operations.”
- “In September 2022, the pension fund was transferred to another Group undertaking.”

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
