- Auditor
- KPMG LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which the directors consider appropriate. In forming this view, the directors have assessed the company's ability to continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements (the "going concern assessment period"). This assessment has considered the company's funding arrangements, liquidity position, and exposure to downside risks. The company meets its day-to-day working capital requirements through a combination of cash on hand and access to the group's $2,300 million revolving credit facility. As at 31 October 2024, the company had $16 million drawn under this facility and held $3 million in cash. The directors have considered the potential impact of uncertainty in the global economy and business performance. A severe but plausible downside scenario was modelled, incorporating a 10% increase in global costs relative to base case projections. Under this scenario, the company remains able to operate normally and has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations as they fall due throughout the going concern assessment period. Accordingly, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and have adopted the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.”

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
