Significant events
- “Subsequent to the year end, following notice served by the landlord to tenants within the building in connection with redevelopment works, 5 White Horse Limited ceased trading in December 2025. 5 White Horse Limited has subsequently commenced the process of voluntary strike-off. Additionally, a group reorganisation took place. As part of this reorganisation, Hedonism Drinks Limited became a wholly owned subsidiary of Hedonism Plus Limited. As a result, Hedonism Plus Limited has become the immediate and ultimate parent company of the Group.”
