Significant events
- “On 27 May 2025, the Openwork Partnership LLP announced the completion of the transaction under which Bain Capital has taken a minority shareholding in Openwork Holdings Limited, a subsidiary of the Company.”
- “On 6 June 2025 Openwork Access Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Group, acquired Milecross Financial Solutions Limited, a company limited by shares and domiciled in the United Kingdom having its registered office at 42 Milecross Road, Newtownards, Down, BT23 4SR. The fair value of total consideration payable in respect of the transaction is estimated to be £24.9m, including £16.1m for initial consideration, which was paid in cash at completion, and a fair value of £8.8m for deferred consideration, which is contingent on the business meeting certain financial targets post-acquisition. The associated accounting for the transaction remains in progress at the report date.”
