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

- “On September 1 2023, the Company acquired its Family Brands Animation and Consumer Products business from its subsidiary, Entertainment One UK Limited as part of the steps required for the sale of Entertainment One UK Limited by Hasbro Inc. The family brands team develops, produces and distributes animation content for children's properties on a worldwide basis. The principal brands include PJ Masks and Peppa Pig whose content entertains children and families and generates revenue through licensing and merchandising programs across multiple retail categories. With this acquisition, the Company acquired certain brands and the animated content will expand the ability to execute the principal activities of the Company. The activity is reflected at a higher level in 2024 as it represents a full 12 months of operation, compared to only four months in the prior year, resulting in a yearonyear increase.”
- “JR Runnacles resigned as director on 14 February 2024.”
