“During the year ended 31 December 2025, the Company's operations generated a loss after tax and an increase to net current liabilities through the Company's principal activity of the operation of a data centre business to provide data-hosting services to other Amazon group undertakings. As referenced in the Strategic Report on page 6, the Company is dependent on, and contributes to, the continued success of the Amazon.com, Inc. group. The directors have concluded that the Amazon.com, Inc. group, based on its reported results, has sufficient financial resources to support the Company either by providing financial and operational services to support its activities, or by continuing its investment in the Company's operations, but only to the extent that the Company is not otherwise able. This is provided through operational service contracts with group undertakings as well as financial support provided in the form of, for example, cash pooling arrangements, loans from group undertakings and equity contributions. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue as an operational business for the foreseeable future, being twelve months from the approval of the financial statements (until the end of February 2027, being the going concern period) which is deemed appropriate due to the nature of the principal activities of the business and Amazon.com, Inc.'s ongoing commitment and proven ability to support the Company's operations. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on a going concern basis.”
