“Under Company law, the directors are required to consider whether it is appropriate to prepare financial statements on the basis that the Company is a going concern. The directors have considered a number of factors in determining whether the going concern basis remains appropriate. As set out in note 21 to the financial statements, following the announcement on 12 May 2025, VMED O2 and Daisy Group completed its joint venture transaction on 1 August 2025, with an ownership split of 70% and 30% respectively, creating a new business to business ("B2B") Group "O2 Daisy". As a result of the transaction, the Company's ultimate parent undertaking became VMED O2 UK Limited. Also on this date, 4Com Group Limited, its immediate parent entity, repaid its debt facilities in full which were secured through fixed and floating charges over the assets of the Company along with a number of other companies within the Daisy Group.The Company is generating profit and is in a current and net asset position. The directors have received a confirmation letter from the directors of VMED O2 UK Holdings Limited, the direct subsidiary of VMED O2 UK Limited, confirming it will provide sufficient financial support to enable the Company to meets its liabilities as they fall due for at least the next 12 months. As such, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
