 significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. We have read the other information contained in the H1 and Q2 2025 results and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the Interim financial statements. Conclusions relating to going concern Based on our review procedures, which are less extensive than those performed in an audit as described in the Basis for conclusion section of this report, nothing has come to our attention to suggest that the directors have inappropriately adopted the going concern basis of accounting or that the directors have identified material uncertainties relating to going concern that are not appropriately disclosed. This conclusion is based on the review procedures performed in accordance with ISRE (UK) 2410. However, future events or conditions may cause the group to cease to continue as a going concern.
