 of the business, by identifying Organic Revenue Growth excluding the impact of Acquired Revenue. This approach isolates changes in performance of the Group that take place under the Company’s stewardship, whether favourable or unfavourable, and thereby reflects the potential benefits and risks associated with owning and managing a professional services business.

Organic Revenue Growth is calculated based on year-over-year revenue growth at CER to eliminate the effects of movements in foreign exchange rates.

Acquired Revenue represents a 12-month estimate of the increase in Group revenue from each business acquired. Acquired Revenue is calculated as: (a) the revenue from the acquisition date to the year end in the year of acquisition in line with IFRS 3; and (b) the pre-acquisition revenues from 1 January up to the acquisition date in the year of acquisition. The pre-acquisition revenue is based on the previously reported revenues of the acquired entity and is considered to be an estimate.

In the year a business is acquired, all of its revenue reported under (a) above is classified as non-organic growth. In the subsequent first full financial year after acquisition, Organic Revenue Growth is calculated for each acquisition as the reported revenue less Acquired Revenue.

At a Group level, calculating Organic Revenue Growth therefore involves isolating and excluding from the total year-over-year revenue change: (i) the impacts from foreign exchange rate changes; (ii) the growth in revenues that have resulted from completed acquisitions in the current period; and (iii) the estimate of pre-acquisition revenues from each business acquired. The sum of (ii) and (iii) is equal to the total Acquired Revenues for all acquisitions. The calculated Organic Revenue is expressed as a percentage of prior year revenue. Prior year revenue is not ‘pro-forma’ adjusted in the calculation, as any such estimated adjustments would have an immaterial impact.

If an acquisition is considered to be a material transaction, such as the Terminix acquisition in October 2022, the above calculation is amended in order to give a ‘pro-forma’ view of any Organic Revenue Growth for the full financial year in the year of acquisition, as if the acquisition had been part of the Group from the beginning of the prior year. The pro-forma calculation is completed using pre-acquisition revenues to normalise current and prior periods as shown in the table below. These revenue normalisations are considered estimates, and ensure that the potentially larger Organic Revenue Growth is measured over a denominator that includes the material acquisition. The same adjustments are made to our North
