- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company secured new ten year financing in June 2025 and additional support is also available from its parent company in the event that additional funding is required for the Group to meet its obligations as they fall due. The directors therefore believe that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.”
Significant events
- “The company is a party to a cross-guarantee in respect of loans on behalf of group companies. At 28 December 2025, the total amount of indebtedness covered by this guarantee was £504.3m.”
- “In June 2025, new Group financing was obtained to fund further growth and expansion plans at a more competitive interest rate than the prior financing arrangement.”
