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

Audit & accounting basis

- Auditor
- PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Based upon the approved cash flow forecasts, the downside analysis, and current funds available to the Company to include the revolving credit facility, the directors have concluded that the JV is able to operate for at least twelve months from the date of signing of the financial statements. For this reason, the directors have at the time of approving the financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “key strategic decisions of the directors during the period included: (i) the launch of TNT Sports streaming customers on the discovery+ platform, (ii) the extension of the Premier League rights with a four-year deal to air 52 exclusively live matches per season until 2029 and (iii) a four-year deal with the Football Association adding the FA Cup from 2025 to the TNT Sports brand's comprehensive line-up of premium content. In addition, the Company also renewed its agreement with Premiership Rugby to remain the "home of English Club Rugby", agreeing to show every single Gallagher Premiership Rugby match live throughout the 2024-2025 season, as well as select matches from the Premiership Rugby Cup.”
- “On 25 November 2024, Discovery Corporate Services Limited, one of the Company's shareholders, distributed its entire shareholding, being 10,000 B ordinary shares of £1.00 each and 2 D preference shares of £1.00 each in the capital of the Company to its immediate parent company, DNI Foreign Holdings Limited.”
