“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company will have adequate resources for a period of at least 12 months from the date of their approval and that there are no material uncertainties to disclose.”
Significant events
- “In February 2025, credit rating agencies downgraded the Company's senior class B credit ratings, with its junior class C ratings also downgraded a single notch.”
- “conversion of an element of the intercompany loan to DCC from RPI linked to fixed rate, and a fair value adjustment to this loan, corresponding to the termination of one of the Company's external swap agreements. A total modification loss of £333,006,000 was recognised.”
- “As at 31 March 2025 there was also a special liquidity facility of £175 million (2024: £135 million); this is required in order to meet certain interest and other obligations that may not be funded through operating cash flow in the event of a standstill being declared by the Security Trustee, following an event of default under the Group's debt financing covenants.”

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
