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

Significant events
- “C&W Group entered into a $1.5 billion principal amount Term SOFR + 3.25% term loan due 31 January 2032. The drawdown on the C&W Term Loan B-7 Facility was made at a 99.5% original issue discount. The net proceeds from the C&W Term Loan B-7 Facility were used to repay in full the C&W Term Loan B-5 Facility at par.”
- “An increase and amendment agreement was signed in respect of the extension agreement on the C&W Revolving Credit Facility originally entered into in September 2024. In accordance with this increase and amendment agreement, including certain new commitments that were made available thereunder, a total of $460 million of commitments under the C&W Revolving Credit Facility (i) had their maturity date extended to 15 April 2029, effective upon the refinancing of the C&W Term Loan B-5 Facility (which occurred subsequent to 31 December 2024), and (ii) will automatically have their maturity date extended to 31 January 2031 upon the occurrence of the refinancing of the C&W Term Loan B-6 Facility.”
