Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors, report that, having reviewed both the Company and the Group's current performance, its current cash position, the repayment profile of its existing debt structure and the resilience of its 12 month cash flow forecasts of the NEXT Group to a series of severe but plausible downside scenarios such as further enforced store closures, they have reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue its operations for the foreseeable future. As part of this review, a joint letter of support for the Company for at least 12 months from the date of signing has been signed by the directors of NEXT plc and Victoria's Secret & Co. For this reason, the directors have continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “The current period declined on the prior period due to changes within the store portfolio. During the year ended 25 January 2025, the Company closed 5 standalone stores including its London flagship store in early February 2024. The Company also opened 5 standalones stores and 1 shop-in-shop during the year and will see the annual benefit of these trading in 2025.”

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
