Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“At 31 December 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $879.5 million and the directors estimate the Company's existing cash and cash equivalents at the date of approval of these financial statements is sufficient to continue to fund the Company's operating expenses for the foreseeable future at least 12 months from the date of that approval and that is therefore appropriate to prepare these financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
