After the year end

On 27 June 2025 (announced 30 June 2025), after the 31 March 2025 year end, the Group completed the acquisition of the entire issued share capital of Enlighten Group Pty Ltd, a privately owned competitor in workforce optimisation software and professional services serving predominantly North America and Asia Pacific. Total maximum consideration up to $21.5m (approx. £15.9m): initial consideration $8.5m (approx. £6.3m) cash, plus contingent deferred consideration of up to $13m (approx. £9.6m) cash dependent on financial performance/renewals — up to $8m (approx. £5.9m) for the year to 30 June 2026 and up to $5m (approx. £3.7m) for the year to 30 June 2027. Treated as a non-adjusting event; acquisition accounting not yet completed/recognised in the FY2025 financial statements.

Going concern and the audit

Directors reviewed detailed financial forecasts and cash flows looking three years ahead, including the impact of the post-year-end Enlighten acquisition, with downside scenarios prepared; concluded the Group has sufficient working capital and available funds, so accounts prepared on a going-concern basis. Independent Auditor MHA issued an unmodified (unqualified) opinion: financial statements give a true and fair view of the Group's and Parent Company's affairs at 31 March 2025 and of the Group's profit for the year, properly prepared in accordance with UK-adopted IFRS (Group) / UK GAAP FRS 101 (Company) and the Companies Act 2006, with no material uncertainties identified relating to going concern. Two recurring Key Audit Matters: (1) Revenue recognition (SaaS revenue recognised over time vs T&I recognised on delivery — judgement over performance obligations, standalone selling prices and cut-off) and (2) Valuation and recognition of capitalised development costs (IAS 38 judgement over capitalisation criteria, useful life and impairment indicators for ControlIQ and CaseWorkIQ). Group materiality set at £450,000 (2024: £400,000), 1.5% of Group revenue.
