Significant events
- “Financial covenants have been met during the year and the Lender debt has been fully repaid on 25 March 2026.”
- “A thorough review of the Project Agreement and associated contracts regarding hand back to the Authority at the end of the concession has been undertaken and the investigation has concluded that there is no risk to the group on expiry of the Project agreement. It was noted that the group will remain liable to fulfil its obligations pursuant to the Frog Island Underlease past the Project Agreement expiry unless it is transferred to the Authority, third party or terminated and will be required to keep this premises in reasonable repair. As at the reporting date, the directors believe the likelihood is that the Frog Island site will be transferred to the Authority at the end of the concession.”
