Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 | 2025-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Return on capital employed | 70.5% | -67.0% | -93.4% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 62.5% | 76.3% | — | |
| Current ratio | 0.15x | 0.33x | 0.17x |
Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.

In addition, the company's ultimate shareholders Brookfield Property Partners LP and Qatar Investment Authority have confirmed that they have the intent and ability to provide such financial support to the Stork Holdco LP Group and its wholly owned subsidiaries to meet their liabilities if required for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
