1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES, JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
1.1 General information
Foxtons Group plc (\u2018the Company\u2019) is a company incorporated in the United Kingdom under the Companies Act 2006.
The address of the Company\u2019s registered office is Building One, Chiswick Park, 566 Chiswick High Road, London W4 5BE.
The principal activity of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, \u2018the Group\u2019) is the provision of services to the residential
property market in the UK.
These financial statements are presented in pounds sterling which is the currency of the primary economic environment in
which the Group operates.
1.2 Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards
The financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards
and with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies reporting under those standards.
The accounting policies set out below have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the years ended
31 December 2023 and 2024.
1.3 Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis as modified by items held at fair value through other
comprehensive income. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for the assets.
1.4 Basis of consolidation
The financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company
(its subsidiaries) made up to 31 December each year. Control is achieved where the Company has the power over the investee;
is exposed, or has rights, to variable return from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect
its returns.
All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.
1.5 Climate change
In preparing the financial statements, the Directors have considered the impact of climate change, particularly in the context
of the climate-related risks identified in the Group\u2019s Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures. These considerations
did not have a material impact on the financial reporting judgements and estimates in the current year. This reflects the
conclusion that climate-related risks are not material to the Group and are not expected to have a significant impact on the
Group\u2019s short-term or medium-term cash flows including those considered in the going concern and viability assessments,
impairment assessments of the carrying value of non-current assets and the estimates of future profitability used in our
assessment of the recoverability of deferred tax assets.
1.6 Business combinations
The Group applies the acquisition method in accounting for business combinations. The consideration transferred by the Group
to obtain control of a subsidiary is calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair values of assets transferred, liabilities
incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group, which includes the fair value of any asset or liability arising from a
contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred.
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are generally measured at their acquisition date fair values.
1.7 Going concern
Going concern assessment
The financial statements of the Group have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Directors have satisfied themselves
that, at the time of approving the financial statements, the Group will have adequate resources to continue in operation for a
period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements. The assessment has taken into
consideration the Group\u2019s financial position, liquidity requirements, recent trading performance and the outcome of reverse
stress testing over an 18-month forecast period to August 2026.
At 31 December 2024, the Group was in a net current liability position of \u00a35.2 million (2023: \u00a38.4 million) and a net
debt position of \u00a312.7 million (2023: \u00a36.8 million net debt), which includes the \u00a318.0 million drawdown on the Group\u2019s
\u00a330.0 million revolving credit facility (\u2018RCF\u2019) used to fund the Group\u2019s acquisition strategy and working capital requirements.
The facility is available for use until June 2027 and has an option to extend for a further year to June 2028. The facility also
includes a \u00a310 million accordion option which can be requested at any time subject to bank approval. For RCF terms refer to
Note 18.
Reverse stress scenario
In assessing the Group\u2019s ability to continue as a going concern, the Directors have stress tested the Group\u2019s cash flow forecasts
using a reverse stress scenario which incorporates a severe deterioration in market conditions. Reverse stress testing seeks to
determine the point at which the Group could be considered to fail without taking further mitigating actions or raising
additional funds. For the purposes of the reverse stress test, the point of failure has been defined as the point at which the
Group breaches its RCF covenants.
The reverse stress scenario has taken into consideration the revenue characteristics of the Group, specifically the transactional
nature of Sales revenue, which contrasts to the recurring and non-cyclical nature of Lettings revenue. The scenario assumes a
severe macro-economic downturn from April 2025 to August 2026 which heavily impacts Sales and Financial Services
revenues since these streams are most sensitive to the macro-economic environment. Additionally, Lettings revenues have
been assumed to be impacted despite their resilient nature.
Under the reverse stress scenario Sales revenue would be 15% lower than 2024 and Lettings revenue 4% lower than 2024,
despite the Group having completed two acquisitions in October 2024 which are revenue accretive. The key assumptions are:
\u2022 A 24% reduction in sales market transactions and a 10% reduction in Lettings units compared to 2024. For context,
a 24% reduction in sales market transactions would see transaction volumes fall c.7% compared to those levels seen in
2009 following the Global Financial Crisis.
\u2022 An 18% reduction in sales market share and a 10% reduction in Lettings average revenue per transaction from current
levels, further reducing revenues.
\u2022 Mitigating action is taken to reduce discretionary spending and right size fee earner headcount to reflect market
conditions. The modelled actions include: reducing direct costs to reflect market conditions; reducing discretionary spend
such as marketing; and pausing management bonuses.
In the unlikely event of the reverse stress scenario, the Group forecasts it would breach the RCF\u2019s leverage covenant (refer to
Note 18 for details of the covenants) in March 2026. Under such a scenario, further mitigating actions that could be taken,
but not included in the reverse stress scenario, include further reducing discretionary spend, further rationalising headcount,
pausing capital expenditure, seeking agreement to defer lease payments or raising additional funds.
1.8 Adoption of new and revised standards
The following standards and amendments to published standards, effective for periods on or after 1 January 2024, have
been endorsed:
Amendments to IAS 1 Non-current liabilities with covenants
Amendments to IFRS 16 Lease liability on sale and leaseback
Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 Supplier Finance Arrangements
The Group has considered the new or revised standards above. It concluded that either they are not relevant to the Group or
would not have a material impact on its financial statements with the exception of Amendments to IAS 1. The adoption and
impact of the Amendments to IAS 1 has been disclosed in Note 18.
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the following standards, amendments and interpretations which
have not been applied in these financial statements were in issue but not yet effective:
Amendments to IAS 21 Lack of Exchangeability
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountabilitys
Management anticipates that all relevant pronouncements will be adopted for the first period beginning on or after the
effective date of the pronouncement. New standards, amendments and interpretations not adopted in the current year are not
expected to have a material impact on the Group\u2019s financial statements.
1.9 Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for
services provided in the normal course of business, when performance obligations are met net of discounts (if any) and VAT.
Revenue is generated from the Group\u2019s operations which are wholly based in the UK.
Rendering of services
Under IFRS 15 \u2018Revenue from Contracts with Customers\u2019, a five step process is taken for recognising revenue from contracts
with customers. The process consists of: 1) Identifying the contract(s) with a customer; 2) Identifying the performance
obligations in the contract; 3) Determining the transaction price; 4) Allocating the transaction price to the performance
obligation(s); and 5) Recognising revenue when a performance obligation has been satisfied.
The Group generates revenue from customers, the majority of which are based in the UK, from three main revenue streams:
Lettings; Sales; and Financial Services. The point at which transfer of control of services to customers for each performance
obligation is deemed to be met, and consequently the revenue recognition point for each performance obligation, is in line with
the criteria outlined below.
Lettings revenue streams
Revenue is recognised as follows for the following Lettings revenue streams:
(i) Commission for securing a tenancy for the landlord
The Group satisfies its performance obligation at the point the tenancy is secured and recognises initial Lettings
commission at this point. The initial Lettings commission is determined by applying the contractual commission
percentages to the value of the rental over the non-cancellable period. Once the non-cancellable period has passed, and
the contract can be terminated in accordance with the break clause, the contract is accounted for as a rolling contract
with optional renewals.
Contract assets represent the accrual of revenue beyond amounts invoiced for contracts where invoicing only covers part
of the non-cancellable contract period, and contract liabilities represent amounts invoiced for contracts where invoicing
has extended past the non-cancellable contract period.
This commission is recognised over time in line with the contract between the Group and the landlord which has been
determined to be a cancellable contract, due to the landlord having the ability to cancel the contract at any time once the
non-cancellable period has passed. If the contract is cancelled, the Group refunds any initial commissions paid by the
landlord on a pro-rata basis.
(ii) Commission for collecting rent on behalf of the landlord
Commission for rent collection services is recognised over the life of the contract on a straight-line basis which is in line
with the satisfaction of the performance obligation, measured using a mark-up on the estimated costs allocated to the
provision of the service.
(iii) Commission for managing the tenancy on behalf of the landlord
Property management services are recognised over the life of the contract on a straight-line basis which is in line with the
satisfaction of the performance obligation.
Sales revenue streams
Revenue is recognised as follows for the following Sales revenue streams:
(i) Commission for residential property sales
Commission earned on residential property sales is recognised at a point in time upon the exchange of contracts for such sales.
(ii) Commission for residential off-plan property sales
For contracts relating to new homes sold off-plan, the Group\u2019s commission is variable and dependent on the off-plan sale
successfully completing. At the point of exchange of contract, management makes an assessment of the amount and
probability of revenue expected to be received.
Variable consideration is estimated using the expected value methodology to predict the amount of consideration the
Group will be entitled to. The estimate is determined with reference to historical and forecast information. Estimates are
constrained to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised
will not occur once any uncertainty is subsequently resolved. Constraints are determined with reference to factors outside
the Group\u2019s control and the length of time between point of exchange of contracts and completion of the sale.
Financial Services revenue streams
Commission earned on financial services is recognised at a point in time, when either insurance policies go on risk or when
mortgage contracts complete. Income from other services is recognised in the period or periods when the services are
provided. Commission is recognised at fair value which takes account of expected future cancellations.
Interest income
The Group deposits its cash with reputable financial institutions. Interest income is recognised when it is probable that the
economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on
a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable. The Group earns interest
income on its own funds which is presented as finance income. The Group also earns interest on client monies which is
presented within Lettings revenue given the collection and holding of client monies (deposits for tenancy agreements) is
an integral part of the lettings service provided to landlords.
1.10 Taxation
The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
Current tax
The tax currently receivable/payable is based on taxable profit for the period and any adjustments in respect to prior periods.
Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that
are taxable or deductible in other periods and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is
accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable
temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be
available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or from
the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither
the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments except where the Group is able
to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the
foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and amended to the extent that it is
probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is
realised based on tax laws and rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax
is charged or credited in the consolidated income statement, except when it relates to items charged or credited in other
comprehensive income, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in other comprehensive income.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current
tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its
current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
1.11 Goodwill and goodwill impairment
Goodwill arising in a business combination is recognised as an asset at the date that control is acquired. Goodwill is measured
as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the
fair value of the acquirer\u2019s previously held equity interest (if any) in the entity over the net of the fair value of the identifiable
assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
Goodwill is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill
is allocated to each of the Group\u2019s cash-generating units (CGUs), or groups of CGUs as applicable, expected to benefit from
the synergies of the combination. CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more
frequently when there is an indication that the CGU may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than its
carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU
and then to the other assets of the CGU pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU. An impairment
loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.
1.12 Other intangible assets
Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable software products controlled
by the Group are recognised as intangible assets when the project or process is technically and commercially feasible.
Directly attributable costs that are capitalised as part of the software product include the software development employee
costs and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.
Intangible assets under construction represent the amount of expenditure recognised in the course of an asset\u2019s construction.
Amortisation of an asset is recognised from the time it is available for use.
Intangible assets, other than goodwill that are acquired by the Group (the acquired Foxtons brand, software and customer
contracts), are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. The brand is considered to have an
indefinite economic life because of the institutional nature of the brand and the Group\u2019s commitment to develop and enhance
its value. The carrying value of the brand is subject to an annual impairment review, and adjusted to its recoverable amount if
required. Amortisation of customer contracts and software is included within other operating costs in the consolidated income
statement, and is recognised on a straight-line basis as follows:
Customer contracts and relationships Estimated life of the contracts/relationships
Software 20% straight-line
1.13 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognised impairment loss.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets (other than land and assets under construction) less their
residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method, on the following bases:
Leasehold improvements Over the term of the lease (typical lease terms range from five years to 15 years)
Fixtures, fittings and equipment Between 20% and 25% straight-line
Motor vehicles 25% straight-line
The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the
effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
The gain or loss arising on the disposal or scrappage of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and
the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the consolidated income statement.
1.14 Impairment of tangible and intangible assets
At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets (in relation to
goodwill, refer to section 1.11 for details of the goodwill impairment policy) to determine whether there is any indication that
those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated
to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is tested for
impairment at least annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated
future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the
asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in the consolidated
income statement.
1.15 Leases
The Group as lessee
The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of the contract. The Group recognises a right-of-use
asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term
leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases for low value assets. For these leases, the Group
recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another
systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed.
a) Lease liability: The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the
commencement date, discounted by using an incremental borrowing rate which is the rate of interest that the lessee
would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a
similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability primarily comprise fixed lease payments.
The lease liability is presented across separate lines (current and non-current) in the consolidated statement of financial
position. The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease
liability (using the effective interest rate method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.
The carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the
in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying assets.
b) Right-of-use assets: Right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease
payments made at or before the commencement day and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost
less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease
term and useful life of the underlying asset.
The Group applies IAS 36 to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and accounts for any identified
impairment loss in line with the Group\u2019s existing impairment accounting policy.
Variable rents that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and the
right-of-use asset. The related payments are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that
triggers those payments occurs and are included in other operating costs in the consolidated income statement.
The Group as lessor
The Group acts as an intermediate sub-lessor for certain properties. The Group accounts for the head lease and the sublease as
two separate contracts. The sublease is classified as a finance or operating lease by reference to the right-of-use asset arising
from the head lease.
Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Amounts due
from lessees under finance leases are recognised as receivables at the amount of the Group\u2019s net investment in the leases.
Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the Group\u2019s net
investment outstanding in respect of the leases.
1.16 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash and short-term bank deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
The carrying amount of these assets is equal to their fair value. Cash and cash equivalents excludes client monies since these
funds belong to tenants (refer to Note 26 for details of the client monies held by the Group).
1.17 Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Group\u2019s consolidated statement of financial position when the
Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
a) Financial assets
The financial assets held by the Group are classified, at initial recognition, and subsequently measured at amortised cost
or at fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI). All financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a
trade date where the purchase or sale of the financial asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the
financial asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned.
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset\u2019s contractual cash flow characteristics
and the Group\u2019s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant
financing component, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus transaction costs.
For purposes of subsequent measurement, the financial assets held by the Group are classified in two categories:
\u2022 Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)
\u2022 Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon
derecognition (equity instruments)
All financial assets, other than cash and cash equivalents and investments classified as fair value through OCI, are
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method, except for short-term receivables when the
recognition of interest would be immaterial, and are subject to impairment.
Impairment of financial assets
For trade receivables and contract assets, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating expected credit losses
(ECLs). Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on
lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Group has established an ECL model that is based on its historical credit
loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking market factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.
Further information on the ECLs for trade receivables is given in Note 16. The ECLs against contract assets are measured
through a consideration of historic rental defaults, adjusted for forward-looking market factors that align to those of the
debtors' ECLs, and applied based on the expected year of maturity.
Investments in unlisted shares
On initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as fair
value through OCI (unless held for trading). The classification is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis.
Gains and losses on these financial assets are recognised through OCI.
Dividends on these investments are recognised as other income in the statement of profit or loss when the right of
payment has been established, except when the Group benefits from such proceeds as a recovery of part of the cost of
the financial asset, in which case, such gains are recorded in OCI.
The Group recognises its non-listed equity investments as fair value through OCI.
b) Financial liabilities and equity
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of
the contractual arrangement.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs and are subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis.
The EIR method is used in calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and for allocating interest expense over the
relevant period. The EIR is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of
the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. The Group
derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group\u2019s obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is
probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the
balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured
using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party,
a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the
receivable can be measured reliably.
A provision for restructuring is recognised when management has a formal plan for the restructuring that identifies that
portion of the business and principal locations that will be affected in detail and timing, and has raised an expectation among
those affected that it will proceed with the restructuring.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its
liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
1.18 Share-based payments
Equity-settled share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date.
The fair value excludes the effect of non-market based vesting conditions. Details regarding the determination of the fair value
of equity-settled share-based transactions are set out in Note 27.
The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis
over the vesting period, based on the Group\u2019s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. At each balance sheet
date, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest as a result of the effect of
non-market-based vesting conditions. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in the
consolidated income statement such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding
adjustment to equity reserves.
1.19 Alternative performance measures (APMs)
In reporting financial information the Group presents APMs which are not defined or specified under the requirements of
IFRS. The Group believes that the presentation of APMs provides stakeholders with additional and helpful information on the
performance of the business, but does not consider them to be a substitute for or superior to IFRS measures. APMs are also
used to enhance the comparability of information between reporting periods, by adjusting for factors which affect IFRS
measures, to aid users in understanding the Group\u2019s performance. The Group\u2019s APMs are defined, explained and reconciled
to the nearest statutory measure within Notes 2 and 28.
Changes in APM definitions
During the financial year, the Board reviewed certain APM definitions and decided to exclude the amortisation of intangibles
acquired in business combinations from profit measures. The amortisation charge is excluded since the incremental
amortisation charge arising from acquired intangible assets is not considered when assessing the underlying trading
performance of the Group/segments. The change also aligns the metric with generally accepted market practice.
As a result of this change, the following APMs have been redefined to exclude the amortisation of intangibles acquired in
business combinations:
\u2022 Adjusted operating profit
\u2022 Adjusted operating profit margin
\u2022 Adjusted profit before tax
\u2022 Adjusted earnings per share
2023 comparatives have been restated as applicable under the revised definition to ensure a fair comparison. Refer to Note 28
for further details of the restatement of the 2023 comparatives.
Adjusted items
Adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating profit margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted profit before
tax, adjusted earnings per share, exclude adjusted items.
Adjusted items include costs or revenues which due to their size and incidence require separate disclosure in the financial
statements to reflect management\u2019s view of the underlying performance of the Group and allow comparability of performance
from one period to another. Items include restructuring and impairment charges, significant acquisition costs and any other
significant exceptional items. Refer to Note 4 for further information around the adjusted items recognised in the year.
1.20 Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Group\u2019s accounting policies, the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be
relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised
in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future
periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Critical accounting judgements in applying the Group\u2019s accounting policies
Critical accounting judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that are applied in the preparation of the consolidated
financial statements are discussed below.
\u2022 Useful economic life of the brand intangible asset
The Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity of Foxtons Intermediate Holdings Limited on 30 March 2010.
The Directors identified one material intangible asset: the Foxtons brand, which was deemed to have an indefinite life as there
is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate cash inflows. This judgement continues to be
appropriate noting the Group\u2019s intention and the ability to maintain the brand intangible asset so that there is no foreseeable
limit on the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows. Refer to Note 10 for further consideration of
the carrying value of the brand intangible asset.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that have a
significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial
period, are discussed below.
\u2022 Impairment of intangibles with an indefinite life
Determining whether intangibles with an indefinite life are impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the CGUs to
which intangible assets with an indefinite life (i.e. the Foxtons brand) have been allocated. The value in use calculation requires
management to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the CGUs and a suitable discount rate in order to
calculate present value. The carrying amount of the Foxtons brand is \u00a399 million. The key source of estimation uncertainty
relates to the forecast cash flows used to determine the value in use. Sensitivity analysis is provided in Note 10.
\u2022 Contract asset expected credit loss provision
As disclosed in Note 19, the Group\u2019s contract asset balance at 31 December 2024 is \u00a324.2 million (2023: \u00a319.0 million), of
which \u00a323.9 million (2023: \u00a318.8 million) relates to unbilled Lettings commission.
Under the requirements of IFRS 9 \u2018Financial Instruments\u2019, management estimates an expected credit loss (ECL) provision to
capture the recoverability risk of the gross unbilled Lettings commission. The Lettings contract asset provision is \u00a32.5 million at
31 December 2024 (2023: \u00a31.6 million). The provision is estimated with reference to historical loss rates and forward-looking
loss estimates. Since the estimates are relatively sensitive to change, the contract asset ECL provision rate has been identified
as a key source of estimation uncertainty. Sensitivity analysis is provided in Note 19.

CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the CGU may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU.

The assessment has taken into consideration the Group\u2019s financial position, liquidity requirements, recent trading performance and the outcome of reverse stress testing over an 18-month forecast period to August 2026. At 31 December 2024, the Group was in a net current liability position of \u00a35.2 million (2023: \u00a38.4 million) and a net debt position of \u00a312.7 million (2023: \u00a36.8 million net debt), which includes the \u00a318.0 million drawdown on the Group\u2019s \u00a330.0 million revolving credit facility (\u2018RCF\u2019) used to fund the Group\u2019s acquisition strategy and working capital requirements. The facility is available for use until June 2027 and has an option to extend for a further year to June 2028. The facility also includes a \u00a310 million accordion option which can be requested at any time subject to bank approval. For RCF terms refer to Note 18. Reverse stress scenario In assessing the Group\u2019s ability to continue as a going concern, the Directors have stress tested the Group\u2019s cash flow forecasts using a reverse stress scenario which incorporates a severe deterioration in market conditions. Reverse stress testing seeks to determine the point at which the Group could be considered to fail without taking further mitigating actions or raising additional funds. For the purposes of the reverse stress test, the point of failure has been defined as the point at which the Group breaches its RCF covenants. The reverse stress scenario has taken into consideration the revenue characteristics of the Group, specifically the transactional nature of Sales revenue, which contrasts to the recurring and non-cyclical nature of Lettings revenue. The scenario assumes a severe macro-economic downturn from April 2025 to August 2026 which heavily impacts Sales and Financial Services revenues since these streams are most sensitive to the macro-economic environment. Additionally, Lettings revenues have been assumed to be impacted despite their resilient nature. Under the reverse stress scenario Sales revenue would be 15% lower than 2024 and Lettings revenue 4% lower than 2024, despite the Group having completed two acquisitions in October 2024 which are revenue accretive. The key assumptions are: \u2022 A 24% reduction in sales market transactions and a 10% reduction in Lettings units compared to 2024. For context, a 24% reduction in sales market transactions would see transaction volumes fall c.7% compared to those levels seen in 2009 following the Global Financial Crisis. \u2022 An 18% reduction in sales market share and a 10% reduction in Lettings average revenue per transaction from current levels, further reducing revenues. \u2022 Mitigating action is taken to reduce discretionary spending and right size fee earner headcount to reflect market conditions. The modelled actions include: reducing direct costs to reflect market conditions; reducing discretionary spend such as marketing; and pausing management bonuses. In the unlikely event of the reverse stress scenario, the Group forecasts it would breach the RCF\u2019s leverage covenant (refer to Note 18 for details of the covenants) in March 2026. Under such a scenario, further mitigating actions that could be taken, but not included in the reverse stress scenario, include further reducing discretionary spend, further rationalising headcount, pausing capital expenditure, seeking agreement to defer lease payments or raising additional funds.

Revenue is generated from the Group\u2019s operations which are wholly based in the UK. Rendering of services Under IFRS 15 \u2018Revenue from Contracts with Customers\u2019, a five step process is taken for recognising revenue from contracts with customers. The process consists of: 1) Identifying the contract(s) with a customer; 2) Identifying the performance obligations in the contract; 3) Determining the transaction price; 4) Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation(s); and 5) Recognising revenue when a performance obligation has been satisfied. The Group generates revenue from customers, the majority of which are based in the UK, from three main revenue streams: Lettings; Sales; and Financial Services. The point at which transfer of control of services to customers for each performance obligation is deemed to be met, and consequently the revenue recognition point for each performance obligation, is in line with the criteria outlined below. Lettings revenue streams Revenue is recognised as follows for the following Lettings revenue streams: (i) Commission for securing a tenancy for the landlord The Group satisfies its performance obligation at the point the tenancy is secured and recognises initial Lettings commission at this point. The initial Lettings commission is determined by applying the contractual commission percentages to the value of the rental over the non-cancellable period. Once the non-cancellable period has passed, and the contract can be terminated in accordance with the break clause, the contract is accounted for as a rolling contract with optional renewals. Contract assets represent the accrual of revenue beyond amounts invoiced for contracts where invoicing only covers part of the non-cancellable contract period, and contract liabilities represent amounts invoiced for contracts where invoicing has extended past the non-cancellable contract period. This commission is recognised over time in line with the contract between the Group and the landlord which has been determined to be a cancellable contract, due to the landlord having the ability to cancel the contract at any time once the non-cancellable period has passed. If the contract is cancelled, the Group refunds any initial commissions paid by the landlord on a pro-rata basis. (ii) Commission for collecting rent on behalf of the landlord Commission for rent collection services is recognised over the life of the contract on a straight-line basis which is in line with the satisfaction of the performance obligation, measured using a mark-up on the estimated costs allocated to the provision of the service. (iii) Commission for managing the tenancy on behalf of the landlord Property management services are recognised over the life of the contract on a straight-line basis which is in line with the satisfaction of the performance obligation. Sales revenue streams Revenue is recognised as follows for the following Sales revenue streams: (i) Commission for residential property sales Commission earned on residential property sales is recognised at a point in time upon the exchange of contracts for such sales. (ii) Commission for residential off-plan property sales For contracts relating to new homes sold off-plan, the Group\u2019s commission is variable and dependent on the off-plan sale successfully completing. At the point of exchange of contract, management makes an assessment of the amount and probability of revenue expected to be received. Variable consideration is estimated using the expected value methodology to predict the amount of consideration the Group will be entitled to. The estimate is determined with reference to historical and forecast information. Estimates are constrained to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur once any uncertainty is subsequently resolved. Constraints are determined with reference to factors outside the Group\u2019s control and the length of time between point of exchange of contracts and completion of the sale. Financial Services revenue streams Commission earned on financial services is recognised at a point in time, when either insurance policies go on risk or when mortgage contracts complete. Income from other services is recognised in the period or periods when the services are provided. Commission is recognised at fair value which takes account of expected future cancellations. Interest income The Group deposits its cash with reputable financial institutions. Interest income is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable. The Group earns interest income on its own funds which is presented as finance income. The Group also earns interest on client monies which is presented within Lettings revenue given the collection and holding of client monies (deposits for tenancy agreements) is an integral part of the lettings service provided to landlords.

The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases for low value assets. For these leases, the Group recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed. a) Lease liability: The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted by using an incremental borrowing rate which is the rate of interest that the lessee would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability primarily comprise fixed lease payments. The lease liability is presented across separate lines (current and non-current) in the consolidated statement of financial position. The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the effective interest rate method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made. The carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying assets. b) Right-of-use assets: Right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement day and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. The Group applies IAS 36 to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and accounts for any identified impairment loss in line with the Group\u2019s existing impairment accounting policy. Variable rents that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and the right-of-use asset. The related payments are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs and are included in other operating costs in the consolidated income statement. The Group as lessor The Group acts as an intermediate sub-lessor for certain properties. The Group accounts for the head lease and the sublease as two separate contracts. The sublease is classified as a finance or operating lease by reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease. Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recognised as receivables at the amount of the Group\u2019s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the Group\u2019s net investment outstanding in respect of the leases.

Investments in unlisted shares On initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as fair value through OCI (unless held for trading). The classification is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Gains and losses on these financial assets are recognised through OCI. Dividends on these investments are recognised as other income in the statement of profit or loss when the right of payment has been established, except when the Group benefits from such proceeds as a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset, in which case, such gains are recorded in OCI. The Group recognises its non-listed equity investments as fair value through OCI. b) Financial liabilities and equity Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. The EIR method is used in calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and for allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The EIR is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group\u2019s obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. A provision for restructuring is recognised when management has a formal plan for the restructuring that identifies that portion of the business and principal locations that will be affected in detail and timing, and has raised an expectation among those affected that it will proceed with the restructuring. Equity instruments An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities.

Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. A provision for restructuring is recognised when management has a formal plan for the restructuring that identifies that portion of the business and principal locations that will be affected in detail and timing, and has raised an expectation among those affected that it will proceed with the restructuring.

The Group believes that the presentation of APMs provides stakeholders with additional and helpful information on the performance of the business, but does not consider them to be a substitute for or superior to IFRS measures. APMs are also used to enhance the comparability of information between reporting periods, by adjusting for factors which affect IFRS measures, to aid users in understanding the Group\u2019s performance. The Group\u2019s APMs are defined, explained and reconciled to the nearest statutory measure within Notes 2 and 28. Changes in APM definitions During the financial year, the Board reviewed certain APM definitions and decided to exclude the amortisation of intangibles acquired in business combinations from profit measures. The amortisation charge is excluded since the incremental amortisation charge arising from acquired intangible assets is not considered when assessing the underlying trading performance of the Group/segments. The change also aligns the metric with generally accepted market practice. As a result of this change, the following APMs have been redefined to exclude the amortisation of intangibles acquired in business combinations: \u2022 Adjusted operating profit \u2022 Adjusted operating profit margin \u2022 Adjusted profit before tax \u2022 Adjusted earnings per share 2023 comparatives have been restated as applicable under the revised definition to ensure a fair comparison. Refer to Note 28 for further details of the restatement of the 2023 comparatives. Adjusted items Adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating profit margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted profit before tax, adjusted earnings per share, exclude adjusted items. Adjusted items include costs or revenues which due to their size and incidence require separate disclosure in the financial statements to reflect management\u2019s view of the underlying performance of the Group and allow comparability of performance from one period to another. Items include restructuring and impairment charges, significant acquisition costs and any other significant exceptional items.

The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Critical accounting judgements in applying the Group\u2019s accounting policies Critical accounting judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that are applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are discussed below. \u2022 Useful economic life of the brand intangible asset The Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity of Foxtons Intermediate Holdings Limited on 30 March 2010. The Directors identified one material intangible asset: the Foxtons brand, which was deemed to have an indefinite life as there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate cash inflows. This judgement continues to be appropriate noting the Group\u2019s intention and the ability to maintain the brand intangible asset so that there is no foreseeable limit on the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows. Refer to Note 10 for further consideration of the carrying value of the brand intangible asset. Key sources of estimation uncertainty Key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial period, are discussed below. \u2022 Impairment of intangibles with an indefinite life Determining whether intangibles with an indefinite life are impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the CGUs to which intangible assets with an indefinite life (i.e. the Foxtons brand) have been allocated. The value in use calculation requires management to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the CGUs and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. The carrying amount of the Foxtons brand is \u00a399 million. The key source of estimation uncertainty relates to the forecast cash flows used to determine the value in use.

2. BUSINESS AND GEOGRAPHICAL SEGMENTS
Products and services from which reportable segments derive their revenues
Management has determined the operating segments based on the monthly management pack reviewed by the Directors, which is
used to assess both the performance of the business and to allocate resources within the entity. Management has identified that the
Board is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (\u2018CODM\u2019) in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 8 \u2018Operating Segments\u2019.
The operating and reportable segments of the Group are (i) Lettings; (ii) Sales; and (iii) Financial Services.
(i) Lettings generates commission from the letting and management of residential properties and income from interest earned
on client monies.
(ii) Sales generates commission on sales of residential property.
(iii) Financial Services generates commission from the arrangement of mortgages and related products under contracts with
financial service providers and receives administration fees from clients.
All revenue for the Group is generated from within the UK and there is no intra-group revenue.
Segment assets and liabilities, including depreciation, amortisation and additions to non-current assets, are not reported to the
Directors on a segmental basis and are therefore not disclosed. Goodwill and intangible assets have been allocated to reportable
segments as described in Note 10.
The segmental disclosures include two APMs as defined below. Further details of the APMs is provided in Note 28.
Contribution and contribution margin
Contribution is defined as revenue less direct operating costs (being salary costs of front office staff and costs of bad debt).
Contribution margin is defined as contribution divided by revenue. These measures indicate the profitability and efficiency of the
segments before the allocation of shared costs.
Adjusted operating profit and adjusted operating profit margin
Adjusted operating profit represents the profit before tax for the period before amortisation of acquired intangibles, adjusted items
(defined in Note 1.19), finance income, finance cost and other gains/losses. Adjusted operating profit margin is defined as adjusted
operating profit divided by revenue. As explained in Note 28, these measures are used by the Board to measure delivery against the
Group\u2019s strategic priorities, to allocate resource and to assess segmental performance.
As explained in Note 1.19, the definitions of adjusted operating profit and adjusted operating profit margin have been updated in the
year to exclude the amortisation of acquired intangibles. The 2023 comparatives (Group and segmental metrics) have been restated
as detailed within this note to ensure a fair comparison.

Management has identified that the Board is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (\u2018CODM\u2019) in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 8 \u2018Operating Segments\u2019. The operating and reportable segments of the Group are (i) Lettings; (ii) Sales; and (iii) Financial Services. (i) Lettings generates commission from the letting and management of residential properties and income from interest earned on client monies. (ii) Sales generates commission on sales of residential property. (iii) Financial Services generates commission from the arrangement of mortgages and related products under contracts with financial service providers and receives administration fees from clients. All revenue for the Group is generated from within the UK and there is no intra-group revenue. Segment assets and liabilities, including depreciation, amortisation and additions to non-current assets, are not reported to the Directors on a segmental basis and are therefore not disclosed. Goodwill and intangible assets have been allocated to reportable segments as described in Note 10. The segmental disclosures include two APMs as defined below. Further details of the APMs is provided in Note 28. Contribution and contribution margin Contribution is defined as revenue less direct operating costs (being salary costs of front office staff and costs of bad debt). Contribution margin is defined as contribution divided by revenue. These measures indicate the profitability and efficiency of the segments before the allocation of shared costs. Adjusted operating profit and adjusted operating profit margin Adjusted operating profit represents the profit before tax for the period before amortisation of acquired intangibles, adjusted items (defined in Note 1.19), finance income, finance cost and other gains/losses. Adjusted operating profit margin is defined as adjusted operating profit divided by revenue. As explained in Note 28, these measures are used by the Board to measure delivery against the Group\u2019s strategic priorities, to allocate resource and to assess segmental performance. As explained in Note 1.19, the definitions of adjusted operating profit and adjusted operating profit margin have been updated in the year to exclude the amortisation of acquired intangibles. The 2023 comparatives (Group and segmental metrics) have been restated as detailed within this note to ensure a fair comparison.

Corporation tax for the year ended 31 December 2024 is calculated at 25% (2023: 23.5%) of the estimated taxable profit for
the period.
In the Spring Budget 2021, the UK Government announced that from 1 April 2023 the corporation tax rate would increase to 25%.
This new law was substantively enacted on 24 May 2021. For the financial year ended 31 December 2024 the tax rate was 25%
(2023: the weighted average tax rate was 23.5%). Deferred tax at the balance sheet date has been measured using this enacted
tax rate.
Reconciliation of effective tax charge
The tax on the Group\u2019s profit before tax differs from the standard UK corporation tax rate of 25% (2023: 23.5%), because of the
following factors:

Tax arising in the reporting period and not recognised in net profit or loss or other comprehensive income but directly credited to
equity is \u00a3941k (2023: \u00a3248k), comprising \u00a3750k (2023: \u00a3248k) of deferred tax and \u00a3191k (2023: \u00a3nil) of current tax. This relates to
share-based payment schemes.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are only offset where the Group has a legally enforceable right to do so. The following is the
analysis of the deferred tax balances (after offset) for financial reporting purposes:

Deferred tax liabilities relate to the intangible assets of the Foxtons brand and purchased customer contracts and relationships,
which have an indefinite life and a range of definite lives respectively. The deferred tax liability relating to the Foxtons brand will
not reverse unless the Foxtons brand is impaired or sold by the Group, and the deferred tax liability relating to purchased customer
contracts and relationships will unwind over the range of amortisation periods of the respective assets.
The following are the major deferred tax liabilities and assets recognised by the Group and movements thereon during the current

Deferred tax assets have been recognised in respect of all tax losses and other temporary differences to the extent that it is probable
that these assets will be recovered through future taxable profits.
A deferred tax asset totalling \u00a30.9 million (2023: \u00a31.0 million) has been recognised in relation to tax losses brought forward.
This relates to gross \u00a33.7 million (2023: \u00a33.9 million) of unused non-trade deficits in Foxtons Intermediate Holdings Limited at
31 December 2024.
Foxtons Intermediate Holdings Limited has \u00a330.6 million of unused losses (2023: \u00a332.0 million) for which a deferred tax asset has
not been recognised on the basis that it is not considered probable that there will be future taxable profits available. These losses
may be carried forward indefinitely.
Current tax receivable is \u00a32.2m (2023: payable of \u00a30.1m) arising from utilisation of accelerated capital allowances across FY22,
FY23 and FY24.

9. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by
the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, excluding own shares held.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the
weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the financial period, excluding own shares held, plus the weighted
average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all the potentially dilutive ordinary share awards into
ordinary shares. The Company\u2019s potentially dilutive ordinary shares are in respect of share awards granted to employees.
As explained in Note 1.19, the definition of adjusted earnings per share has been updated in the year to exclude the amortisation of
acquired intangibles. The 2023 comparative has been restated as detailed within this note to ensure a fair comparison.

\u2022 Lettings goodwill is allocated to the Lettings CGU and tested at this level. This allocation represents the lowest level at which
goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes and is not larger than an operating segment.
\u2022 The brand asset has been tested for impairment by aggregating the values in use relating to the Lettings and Sales CGUs.
No brand value is allocated to the Financial Services CGU since the Foxtons brand only relates to the Sales and Lettings
CGUs. This grouping represents the lowest level at which management monitors the brand internally and reflects the way
in which the brand asset is viewed, rather than being allocated to each segment on an arbitrary basis.
b) Impairment review approach and outcome
The Group tests goodwill and the indefinite life brand asset annually for impairment, or more frequently if there are indicators
of impairment, in accordance with IAS 36 \u2018Impairment of Assets\u2019.
The Group has determined the recoverable amount of each CGU from value in use calculations. The value in use calculations
use cash flow projections from formally approved budgets and forecasts covering a five-year period, with a terminal growth rate
after five years. The resultant cash flows are discounted using a pre-tax discount rate appropriate to the CGUs.
Following the annual impairment review performed as at 30 September 2024, there has been no impairment of the carrying
amount of goodwill or the brand asset.
c) Impairment review assumptions
The assumptions used in the annual impairment review are detailed below:
\u2022 Cash flow assumptions
The key variables in determining the cash flows are Lettings revenues, Sales revenues and the associated direct costs incurred
during the forecast period. These assumptions are based upon a combination of past experience of observable trends and
expectations of future changes in the market. Key assumptions are as follows:
\u2022 Sales revenue increases by a CAGR (compound average growth rate) of 7.9% as the market recovers 7.1% in 2025 and
2.5% annually from there and market share growth continues.
\u2022 Within the Sales revenue assumption, house prices are assumed to increase 1.5% annually.
\u2022 Lettings revenue is assumed to grow at a CAGR of 3.2% over the forecast period, excluding future Lettings portfolio
acquisitions that must be excluded from forecast cash flows under the relevant accounting standard.
\u2022 Long-term growth rates
To evaluate the recoverable amounts of each CGU, a terminal value has been assumed after the fifth year and includes a
long-term growth rate in the cash flows of 2.0% (2023: 2.0%) into perpetuity.
The long-term growth rate is derived from management\u2019s estimates, which take into account the long-term nature of the
market in which each CGU operates and external long-term growth forecasts.
\u2022 Discount rates
In accordance with IAS 36, the pre-tax discount rate applied to the cash flows of each CGU is based on the Group\u2019s weighted
average cost of capital (WACC) and is calculated using a capital asset pricing model and incorporates lease debt held under IFRS
16. The WACC has been adjusted to reflect risks specific to each CGU not already reflected in the future cash flows for that CGU.
The pre-tax discount rate used to discount Lettings cash flows used in the assessment of Lettings goodwill is 17.6%
(2023: 17.1%). The pre-tax discount rate used to discount aggregated Sales and Lettings cash flows used in the assessment
of the brand asset is 17.6% (2023: 17.1%). The year-on-year increase in the discount rate is attributable to market changes in
WACC inputs, primarily the adjusted beta.
d) Sensitivity analysis
Sensitivity analysis has been performed to assess whether the carrying values of goodwill and the brand asset are sensitive to
reasonably possible changes in key assumptions and whether any changes in key assumptions would materially change the
carrying values. Lettings goodwill showed significant headroom against all sensitivity scenarios, while the brand asset is
sensitive to reasonably possible changes in key assumptions.
The key assumption in the brand impairment assessment is the forecast revenues for the Lettings and Sales businesses. The
carrying value of the brand asset is not highly sensitive to changes in discount rates or long-term growth rates.
The impairment model indicates brand asset headroom of \u00a358.6 million (2023: \u00a360.4 million) or 35% (2023: 38%) of the
carrying value under test. Cash flows are sourced from the Group\u2019s Board approved plan while also complying with the
requirements of the relevant accounting standard.
Assuming no changes in other elements of the plan, the brand asset headroom would reduce to zero if the combined revenue
CAGR over the forecast period reduces from 4.8% to 3.0%. Under a reasonably possible downside scenario, Sales revenue
would grow by 10.9% in 2025 (base: 17.3%) reflecting a possible, but pessimistic, sales market downside view, Lettings revenue
growth is limited to 1% and the Group takes appropriate mitigating actions, such as reducing discretionary spend and direct
costs, the brand asset headroom would be reduced to \u00a310.2 million.

Under a reasonably possible downside scenario, Sales revenue would grow by 10.9% in 2025 (base: 17.3%) reflecting a possible, but pessimistic, sales market downside view, Lettings revenue growth is limited to 1% and the Group takes appropriate mitigating actions, such as reducing discretionary spend and direct costs, the brand asset headroom would be reduced to \u00a310.2 million.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfGoodwillExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:5493001HCMG6R1MYKC59", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-294": { "value": "

12. LEASES
Group as a lessee
The Group has lease contracts for its head office, branches and for motor vehicles used in its operations. With the exception of short-
term leases, each lease is recognised on the balance sheet with a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The Group classifies its
right-of-use assets in a consistent manner to its property, plant and equipment (see Note 11).
Generally, the right-of-use assets can only be used by the Group, unless there is a contractual right for the Group to sub-lease the
asset to another party. The Group is also prohibited from selling or pledging the leased assets as security.
Right-of-use assets
The carrying amounts of the right-of-use assets recognised and the movements during the year are outlined below:

During the year ended 31 December 2024, the difference in lease modifications movements recognised within right-of-use assets
and lease liabilities, totalling \u00a3nil (2023: \u00a30.3 million), is recognised as an adjusted item and included in the net property related
charge within Note 4.
Of the movements in the year, cash payments with respect to principal lease instalments totalling \u00a313.2 million were made (2023:
\u00a312.5 million) and the remaining net movement in lease liabilities of \u00a38.3 million (2023: \u00a313.7 million) was non-cash in nature.
At the balance sheet date, the Group had outstanding commitments for future minimum lease payments which fall due as follows:

The Group has elected not to recognise a lease liability for short-term leases (expected lease term is 12 months or less), in line with
the IFRS 16 short-term lease exemption. Payments made under such leases are expensed on a straight-line basis. At 31 December
2024, the Group had a commitment of less than \u00a30.1 million (2023: less than \u00a30.1 million) in relation to short-term leases.
Amounts recognised in profit or loss
The following are the amounts recognised in profit or loss during the year, in respect of the leases held by the Group as a lessee:

13. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
On 28 October 2024 the Group acquired 100% of the share capital of the following independent London estate agents which are
primarily focused on the commuter towns of Reading and Watford:
\u2022 Haslams Estate Agents (Thames Valley) Limited and subsidiaries (\u2018Haslams\u2019);
\u2022 Imagine Property Group Limited (\u2018Imagine\u2019).
The acquisitions are in line with the Group\u2019s strategy of acquiring high quality businesses with strong lettings portfolios.
The provisional purchase price allocation exercise for both acquisitions has been completed which identified a total of \u00a33.9 million of
acquired intangible assets relating to customer contracts and relationships, which are identifiable and separable, and will be
amortised over ten years.
The discount rates applied to the forecast cash flows from the acquired customer contracts and relationships are based on the
respective acquired entities\u2019 weighted average cost of capital (WACC), calculated using a capital asset pricing model. The WACC has
been adjusted to reflect risks specific to Haslams and Imagine not already reflected in the future cash flows.
\u00a37.0 million and \u00a35.2 million of goodwill has arisen on the acquisitions of Haslams and Imagine, respectively, and is primarily
attributable to synergies, new customers, the acquired workforce and business expertise. The acquired goodwill has been allocated
for impairment testing purposes to the Group\u2019s Lettings cash-generating unit which is expected to benefit from the synergies of the
combination. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
Business combinations \u2013 contribution to 2024
From the date of acquisition, 28 October 2024, the Haslams business combination contributed \u00a31.1 million of revenue and
\u00a30.3 million adjusted operating profit to the Group\u2019s performance for the year. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of
the year, revenue for the year would have been \u00a36.2 million and adjusted operating profit would have been \u00a30.8million.
From the date of acquisition, 28 October 2024, the Imagine business combination contributed \u00a30.6 million of revenue and
\u00a30.1 million adjusted operating profit to the Group\u2019s performance for the year. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of
the year, revenue for the period would have been \u00a33.4 million and adjusted operating profit would have been \u00a30.7 million.
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed
The fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired entities as at the respective dates of acquisition are disclosed
below. The fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities are estimated by taking into consideration all available information at
the reporting date.

The acquired lease liabilities were measured using the present value of the remaining lease payments as at the date of acquisition.
The right-of-use assets were measured at an amount equal to the lease liabilities, less any acquisition related adjustments.
The net deferred tax liabilities mainly comprise the tax effect of the accelerated amortisation for tax purposes of the acquired
intangible assets recognised on acquisition and the deferred tax liabilities recognised on the acquired net contract assets.

As part of the purchase agreement with the previous owners of both Haslams and Imagine, an estimated \u00a33.4 million of contingent
cash consideration will be payable 12 months after the acquisition date subject to certain performance targets being met.
This contingent consideration of \u00a33.4 million is included within trade and other payables.

Trade receivables without a significant financing component are classified and held at amortised cost, being initially measured at the
transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost less any associated expected credit loss allowance. Credit losses are
measured at the present value of all cash shortfalls.
Trade receivables are considered past due once they have passed their contracted due date. Amounts invoiced to customers on
exchange of sales contracts or signing of lettings contracts are due immediately.
Impairment of trade receivables
For Sales, the majority of our receivables are received directly from the conveyancing solicitor working on behalf of the seller
from completion monies. This process facilitates the prompt collection of receivables. For Lettings, the vast majority of receivables
are collected through rental payments from tenants, which are used to recover commission receivables prior to being paid away
to landlords.
The Group applies the simplified IFRS 9 approach in measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected credit loss
allowance for all trade receivables. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure
expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of customer type with shared credit risk
characteristics. The expected credit loss rates are based on the corresponding historical credit losses over an appropriate period,
taking into account the different grouping of customers, and are adjusted to reflect current and forward looking macro-economic
factors affecting the customers\u2019 ability to settle the amounts outstanding. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted
outcome and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions
and forecasts of future economic conditions.
Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. The Group does not hold any collateral or
other credit enhancements over any of its trade receivables, nor does it have a legal right of offset against any amounts owed by
the Group to the counterparty.
A summary of the Group\u2019s trade receivables and credit loss allowances is set out below.

19. CONTRACT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES Contract assets At 31 December 2024, the Group recognised contract assets of \u00a324.2 million (2023: \u00a319.0 million), as summarised and explained below.

\u2022 Lettings: Unbilled commission Commission for securing a tenancy for the landlord representing unbilled commission revenue due to the Group for the non-cancellable contract period. The increase in contract assets has been driven by a focus on securing longer tenancy terms, and the introduction of shorter billing periods for landlords opting to agree to longer tenancy terms. \u2022 Sales: Off plan new homes commission As explained in Note 1.9, commissions for sales of new homes purchased off-plan is treated as variable consideration under IFRS 15. For these contracts, it is necessary to constrain the consideration to the extent it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. The table below summarises the movement in the contract assets in the period.

1 The 2023 amount represents reclassification of \u00a30.7m from contract liabilities to contract assets which better reflects the nature of the balance. Impairment of contract assets As at 31 December 2024, the Group recognised an expected credit loss provision of \u00a32.5 million (2023: \u00a31.6 million). Management assesses expected credit losses using the relevant IFRS 9 \u2018Financial Instruments\u2019 guidance with reference to historical loss rates and forward-looking loss estimates. Forward-looking loss estimates consider broader economic factors and the possible impact of the Renters\u2019 Rights Bill which is being progressed through Parliament if tenants choose to exit their existing contracts earlier than originally anticipated, which may be permitted under the new legislation.

As noted below, the 31 December 2023 comparative has been restated to reflect an IAS 1 amendment with all borrowings presented as non-current, except
for \u00a340k. The 2023 borrowings were presented as \u00a311,682k (current) and \u00a398k (non-current) within the 2023 financial statements.
During the period, the Company increased the revolving credit facility (RCF) from \u00a320 million to \u00a330 million and extended it by one
year from June 2026 to June 2027. The RCF attracts a margin of 1.65% above SONIA and is unsecured. The facility is available for use
until June 2027 and has an option to extend for a further year to June 2028, as well as an accordion facility to increase the facility
size to \u00a340 million subject to bank approval.
The RCF is subject to a leverage covenant (net debt to adjusted EBITDA not to exceed 1.75) and an interest cover covenant
(adjusted EBITDA to interest not to be less than 4) as defined in the facility agreement. Both covenants are calculated using
pre-IFRS 16 accounting principles as detailed within Note 28. The Group has been compliant with covenants throughout the period.
The IAS 1 amendments, effective from 1 January 2024, clarified the requirements relating to the classification of liabilities subject to
covenants where the entity has the right defer settlement. The Group has the right to defer settlement of the RCF providing that the
covenants are met. The Group was in compliance with the covenants at 31 December 2024 (leverage covenant 0.5x and interest
cover 29x) and as such the RCF liability has been classified as non-current. The Group was also in compliance with the covenants as
of 31 December 2023 (leverage covenant 0.4x and interest cover 59x). As the IAS 1 amendments are applied retrospectively, the
comparative has been restated.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Categories of financial instruments The categories of financial instruments, including contract assets and liabilities, held by the Group are as follows:

(47,601)
Management considers that the book value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at amortised cost and their fair value are approximately equal. Fair value hierarchy The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining the fair value of the financial instruments held: Level 1 \u2013 Quoted market prices Level 2 \u2013 Valuation techniques (market observable) Level 3 \u2013 Valuation techniques (non-market observable) The Group held \u00a331k of Level 3 financial instruments relating to unlisted shares in Global Property Ventures Limited at 31 December 2024 (2023: \u00a331k). The Group does not hold any financial instruments categorised as Level 1 or 2 under IFRS 13 (2023: \u00a3nil). Capital risk management The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns while maximising the return to shareholders. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, undertake share buybacks, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or negotiate debt facilities. The capital structure of the Group consists of equity, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings, and external borrowings. A regulated subsidiary of the Group, Alexander Hall Associates Limited, is subject to externally imposed capital requirements. The required amount is calculated as 2.5% of the subsidiary\u2019s annual revenue as defined by the Financial Conduct Authority. As at 31 December 2024, the threshold was \u00a3233k (2023: \u00a3218k), for which the entity is in compliance. Gearing ratio The Group\u2019s gearing ratio, calculated as net debt divided by equity, at each period end is as follows:
2024 2023
\u00a3\u2019000 \u00a3\u2019000
Net debt

(6,791)
Equity

Gearing ratio
9.1%
5.4%
1 As defined in Note 28, net debt is defined as cash and cash equivalents less external borrowings and excludes IFRS 16 lease liabilities. Equity includes all capital and reserves of the Group that are managed as capital. Financial risk management The Group closely monitors cash requirements to ensure sufficient funds are held for the operations of the Group. Interest rate risk management The Group is exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Group earn interest on client deposits (see Note 26) and incur interest on RCF drawdowns based on a floating interest rate. The interest rate risk is managed by maintaining an appropriate level of gearing and mix of fixed/floating rate assets and borrowings. Interest rate sensitivity analysis The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments (cash and cash equivalents and client monies) at the statement of financial position date. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of liability outstanding at the statement of financial position date was outstanding for the whole period. If interest rates had been 1% higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group\u2019s profit before tax and total equity for the 12 months ended 31 December 2024 would increase/decrease by \u00a31.1 million/\u00a31.1 million (2023: increase/decrease by \u00a31.2 million/\u00a31.2 million). Credit risk management Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. Trade receivables and contract assets consist of a large number of customers and are monitored on an ongoing basis. The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if they are related entities. Concentration of credit risk to any counterparty did not exceed 1% of gross monetary assets at any time during the period. The credit risk on liquid funds is considered to be limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, which is net of impairment losses, represents the Group\u2019s maximum exposure to credit risk as no collateral or other credit enhancements are held. Client monies (see Note 26) are held with financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. The credit risk of banks cannot be totally eliminated. However, as the funds are client monies there is the additional protection of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) under which the government guarantees amounts of up to \u00a385,000 each. This guarantee applies to each individual client deposit, not the sum total on deposit.
Liquidity risk management
The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and
by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
Additionally, the Group has access to a \u00a330.0 million RCF (2023: \u00a320.0 million) which expires in June 2027 with an option to extend
for a further year. As at 31 December 2024 the Group had drawn down \u00a318.0 million (31 December 2023: \u00a311.7 million).
The Group\u2019s non-derivative financial liabilities consist of trade and other payables, contract liabilities and lease liabilities. The tables
below have been drawn up based on the undiscounted contractual maturities of the financial liabilities including interest that will be
unwound on those liabilities.

19. CONTRACT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Contract assets
At 31 December 2024, the Group recognised contract assets of \u00a324.2 million (2023: \u00a319.0 million), as summarised and explained below.

\u2022 Lettings: Unbilled commission
Commission for securing a tenancy for the landlord representing unbilled commission revenue due to the Group for the
non-cancellable contract period. The increase in contract assets has been driven by a focus on securing longer tenancy terms,
and the introduction of shorter billing periods for landlords opting to agree to longer tenancy terms.
\u2022 Sales: Off plan new homes commission
As explained in Note 1.9, commissions for sales of new homes purchased off-plan is treated as variable consideration under
IFRS 15. For these contracts, it is necessary to constrain the consideration to the extent it is highly probable that a significant
reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur.
The table below summarises the movement in the contract assets in the period.

The 2023 amount represents reclassification of \u00a30.7m from contract liabilities to contract assets which better reflects the nature of the balance.
Impairment of contract assets
As at 31 December 2024, the Group recognised an expected credit loss provision of \u00a32.5 million (2023: \u00a31.6 million). Management
assesses expected credit losses using the relevant IFRS 9 \u2018Financial Instruments\u2019 guidance with reference to historical loss rates and
forward-looking loss estimates. Forward-looking loss estimates consider broader economic factors and the possible impact of the
Renters\u2019 Rights Bill which is being progressed through Parliament if tenants choose to exit their existing contracts earlier than
originally anticipated, which may be permitted under the new legislation.
The expected credit loss provision represents 9% of the gross contract asset balance (2023: 8%). A 1% to 3% absolute increase in
the expected credit loss provision rate, which is considered to be a reasonable range sensitivity, would result in a \u00a30.3 million to
\u00a30.8 million increase in the expected credit loss provision which would primarily be caused by a change in the forward-looking
loss factors.
Contract liabilities
At 31 December 2024, the Group recognised contract liabilities of \u00a310.5 million (2023: \u00a312.2 million) as summarised and explained below.

A contract liability is created when charges are raised for future periods during which either the landlord or tenant will have the ability
to cancel the contract. During the cancellable period, the liability is reduced and revenue is realised for the duration that the deal
remains uncancelled. If the deal is cancelled, the liability reduces to zero and the deferred revenue is reversed to commission refunds.
The nature of the contract liability balances are as follows:
\u2022 Lettings: Securing a tenancy for the landlord
As explained in Note 1.9, the contracts the Group holds with landlords are considered to be \u2018cancellable contracts\u2019 under
IFRS 15, due to the landlord having the ability to cancel the contract at any time once the non-cancellable period has passed.
If the contract is cancelled, the landlord is refunded any initial amounts paid to the Group on a pro-rata basis.
The contract liabilities relate to contracts where charges have been raised for future periods where the landlord has the ability
to cancel the contracts.
\u2022 Lettings: Rent collection service
The contract liabilities relate to charges raised in advance of rent collection performance obligations being satisfied. The remaining
performance obligations will be performed over the course of the remaining tenancy period which is estimated to be 11 months.
\u2022 Other amounts deferred
Other amounts deferred relate to the Group\u2019s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the entity has
received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer or where the Group has a constructive
obligation to a customer.
The table below splits the current and non-current classification of contract assets and contract liabilities with reference to when the
asset or liability is expected to crystallise.

Provision for adjusted items
This provision relates to the dilapidations, rates, service charges and other unavoidable costs under onerous leases relating to
branches that were no longer required. The provision is based on the present value of unavoidable costs payable during the lease
term, after taking into account amounts expected to be recovered through sub-lease arrangements. The provision has an expected
life of up to 14 years (2023: 15 years).
During the period a net provision reversal of \u00a30.2 million (2023: \u00a31.2 million charge) has been recognised as adjusted items.
Refer to Note 4 for further details.
Other provisions
These provisions include mainly dilapidation provisions relating to the ongoing branch portfolio and other onerous provisions that
are incurred in the ordinary course of business and legal provisions. Movement in the year mainly relates to dilapidation provisions.

Provision for adjusted items This provision relates to the dilapidations, rates, service charges and other unavoidable costs under onerous leases relating to branches that were no longer required. The provision is based on the present value of unavoidable costs payable during the lease term, after taking into account amounts expected to be recovered through sub-lease arrangements. The provision has an expected life of up to 14 years (2023: 15 years). During the period a net provision reversal of \u00a30.2 million (2023: \u00a31.2 million charge) has been recognised as adjusted items. Refer to Note 4 for further details. Other provisions These provisions include mainly dilapidation provisions relating to the ongoing branch portfolio and other onerous provisions that are incurred in the ordinary course of business and legal provisions. Movement in the year mainly relates to dilapidation provisions.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfOtherProvisionsContingentLiabilitiesAndContingentAssetsExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:5493001HCMG6R1MYKC59", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-303": { "value": "

Capital risk management
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns while maximising the
return to shareholders.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, undertake
share buybacks, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or negotiate debt facilities.
The capital structure of the Group consists of equity, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings, and
external borrowings.
A regulated subsidiary of the Group, Alexander Hall Associates Limited, is subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
The required amount is calculated as 2.5% of the subsidiary\u2019s annual revenue as defined by the Financial Conduct Authority.
As at 31 December 2024, the threshold was \u00a3233k (2023: \u00a3218k), for which the entity is in compliance.
Financial risk management The Group closely monitors cash requirements to ensure sufficient funds are held for the operations of the Group. Interest rate risk management The Group is exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Group earn interest on client deposits (see Note 26) and incur interest on RCF drawdowns based on a floating interest rate. The interest rate risk is managed by maintaining an appropriate level of gearing and mix of fixed/floating rate assets and borrowings. Interest rate sensitivity analysis The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments (cash and cash equivalents and client monies) at the statement of financial position date. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of liability outstanding at the statement of financial position date was outstanding for the whole period. If interest rates had been 1% higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group\u2019s profit before tax and total equity for the 12 months ended 31 December 2024 would increase/decrease by \u00a31.1 million/\u00a31.1 million (2023: increase/decrease by \u00a31.2 million/\u00a31.2 million). Credit risk management Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. Trade receivables and contract assets consist of a large number of customers and are monitored on an ongoing basis. The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if they are related entities. Concentration of credit risk to any counterparty did not exceed 1% of gross monetary assets at any time during the period. The credit risk on liquid funds is considered to be limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, which is net of impairment losses, represents the Group\u2019s maximum exposure to credit risk as no collateral or other credit enhancements are held. Client monies (see Note 26) are held with financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. The credit risk of banks cannot be totally eliminated. However, as the funds are client monies there is the additional protection of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) under which the government guarantees amounts of up to \u00a385,000 each. This guarantee applies to each individual client deposit, not the sum total on deposit. Liquidity risk management The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Additionally, the Group has access to a \u00a330.0 million RCF (2023: \u00a320.0 million) which expires in June 2027 with an option to extend for a further year. As at 31 December 2024 the Group had drawn down \u00a318.0 million (31 December 2023: \u00a311.7 million). The Group\u2019s non-derivative financial liabilities consist of trade and other payables, contract liabilities and lease liabilities. The tables below have been drawn up based on the undiscounted contractual maturities of the financial liabilities including interest that will be unwound on those liabilities.

27. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS
An IFRS 2 \u2018Share-based payment\u2019 income statement charge of \u00a31.5 million (2023: \u00a31.0 million) has been incurred in relation to
the Group\u2019s equity-settled share award schemes and the equity element of the Bonus Banking Plan (BBP). National Insurance
contributions payable in connection with the schemes granted is treated as a cash-settled transaction, and is excluded from the
income statement charge noted above. The amount credited to equity of \u00a32.5 million (2023: \u00a31.3 million) includes the IFRS 2 charge
of \u00a31.5 million (2023: \u00a31.0 million) and tax on share-based payments of \u00a30.9 million (2023: \u00a30.2 million) (refer to Note 6).
Equity-settled share award schemes
The Group had three equity-settled share award schemes in operation during the period.
a) Restricted Share Plan (RSP) Awards
The Company introduced the RSP awards in 2020 for Executive Directors and Senior Management. The awards have been made in
the form of an option with a nil exercise price. The awards are subject to service conditions, vest over a three-year period, and the
holding period subsequent to the vesting date is two years. If the awards remain unexercised after a period of ten years from the
date of grant the awards expire. The treatment of leavers before awards vest is determined by good leaver/bad leaver provisions.
A net income statement charge of \u00a30.5 million has been incurred in relation to this scheme (2023: \u00a30.3 million charge).
During the year, 1,261,235 share awards (2023: 1,589,114) with a fair value of \u00a30.6 million (2023: \u00a30.6 million) were awarded.
b) Salary Substitute Restricted Share Awards
The Company introduced salary substitute restricted share awards in 2022 for Executive Directors and Senior Management.
The awards have been made in the form of an option with a nil exercise price. The awards are subject to service conditions,
vest over a three-year period for Executive Directors and two years for Senior Management, with a two-year holding period
for Executive Directors. If the awards remain unexercised after a period of ten years from the date of grant the awards expire.
The treatment of leavers before awards vest is determined by good leaver/bad leaver provisions. A net income statement
charge of \u00a30.5 million has been incurred in relation to this scheme (2023: \u00a30.3 million).
During the year, 1,446,418 share awards (2023: 1,593,751) with a fair value of \u00a30.7 million (2023: \u00a30.5 million) were awarded.
c) LTIP Buyout Award
Upon joining the business Guy Gittins, CEO, was awarded an LTIP buyout award to compensate for the forfeiture of incentive
arrangements from his previous employer. The awards were granted on appointment as nil cost options that vest three years
after the grant date in September 2025. The vesting of the award is subject to a performance requirement for the Foxtons share
price to be at least 70p for any 30 consecutive days during the vesting period. If this condition is not met, the award will lapse in
full. A net income statement charge of \u00a30.3 million has been incurred in relation to this scheme (2023: \u00a30.3 million).
The inputs into the Monte Carlo models used in determining the fair value of the LTIP buyout award were as follows:

The awards outstanding at 31 December 2024 had a weighted average remaining contractual life of eight years (2023: nine years).
The entire balance of share awards outstanding at the end of the period have a nil cost exercise price (2023: \u00a3nil).
Employer\u2019s National Insurance contributions are accrued, where applicable, at the rate of 15.0% (2023: 13.8%) which management
expects to be the prevailing rate at the time the awards are exercised.
Equity-settled share bonus payment scheme
Bonus Banking Plan
In 2020 the Company introduced a performance-related bonus scheme, BBP, for Executive Directors whereby the bonus amount
paid is based on a percentage of salary and is paid partly in cash and partly in shares. Bonuses are awarded in cash annually
depending on the achievement of performance measures that are also determined annually. An income statement charge of
\u00a30.2 million has been incurred in relation to the equity component of this scheme (2023: \u00a30.1 million).
The BBP scheme runs in three-year performance cycles, with each cycle vesting over a four-year period in shares. A contribution
will be made by the Company into the participant\u2019s plan account following the end of each plan year. The scheme pays out 50%
of the cumulative balance annually for the first three years of the plan, with 100% of the residual value paid out at the end of the
four-year period.
The fair value of the share awards under this scheme is based on the Group\u2019s average share price in the 30-day period up to the end
of the financial year in which the share awards were granted.

these awards. The weighted average fair value of awards at 31 December 2024 was \u00a30.65 per share award (2023: \u00a30.45 per share
award). Of the awards outstanding at the end of the period, none were exercisable.

28. ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES
In reporting financial information, the Group presents APMs which are not defined or specified under the requirements of IFRS.
The Group believes that the presentation of APMs provides stakeholders with additional helpful information on the performance of
the business, but does not consider them to be a substitute for or superior to IFRS measures.
The Group\u2019s APMs are aligned to the Group\u2019s strategy and together are used to measure the performance of the business with
certain APMs forming the basis of remuneration performance measures. Adjusted results exclude certain items, because if included,
these could distort the understanding of our performance for the period and the comparability between periods. The definition,
purpose and how the measures are reconciled to statutory measures are set out below.
During the financial year, the Board reviewed certain APM definitions and decided to exclude the amortisation of intangibles
acquired in business combinations from profit measures. The amortisation charge is excluded since the incremental amortisation
charge arising from acquired intangible assets is not considered when assessing the underlying trading performance of the
Group/segments. The change also aligns the metric with generally accepted market practice.
As a result of this change, the following APMs have been redefined to exclude the amortisation of intangibles acquired in
business combinations:
\u2022 Adjusted operating profit
\u2022 Adjusted operating profit margin
\u2022 Adjusted profit before tax
\u2022 Adjusted earnings per share
The reconciliation between the revised definition of the APMs and the previous definition of the APMs have been included below.
a) Contribution and contribution margin
Contribution is defined as revenue less direct salary costs of front office staff and costs of bad debt. Contribution margin is
defined as contribution divided by revenue. Contribution and contribution margin are key metrics for management since both
are measures of the profitability and efficiency before the allocation of shared costs. A reconciliation between revenue and
contribution is presented below.

b) Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin
Adjusted EBITDA represents the profit before tax before finance income, non-IFRS 16 finance costs, other gains/(losses),
depreciation of property, plant and equipment (but after IFRS 16 depreciation), amortisation, share-based payment charges and
adjusted items. Since the measure includes IFRS 16 lease depreciation and IFRS 16 lease finance cost, adjusted EBITDA includes
all elements of the Group\u2019s leasing costs and therefore fully reflects the Group\u2019s lease cost base. Adjusted EBITDA margin is
defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. These measures are frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other
interested parties to evaluate financial performance and compare performance of sector peers. Furthermore, adjusted EBITDA
is used to calculate the leverage and interest cover ratios for the purposes of the Group\u2019s RCF covenants. A reconciliation
between operating profit and adjusted EBITDA is presented below.

3
Interest on IFRS 16 leases is deducted so that adjusted EBITDA includes the financing cost of property and vehicle leases.
c) Adjusted operating profit and adjusted operating profit margin
Adjusted operating profit represents the profit before tax for the period before amortisation of acquired intangibles, finance
income, finance cost, other gains/(losses) and adjusted items (defined within Note 1.19). This measure is reported to the Board
for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. The closest equivalent IFRS measure to
adjusted operating profit is profit before tax.
Adjusted operating profit margin is defined as adjusted operating profit divided by revenue. This APM is a key performance
indicator of the Group and is used to measure the delivery of the Group\u2019s strategic priorities.
Refer to Note 2 for a reconciliation between profit before tax and adjusted operating profit and for the inputs used to derive
adjusted operating profit margin. The table below reconciles the revised definition of the metrics to the previous definition.

e) Adjusted earnings per share
Adjusted earnings per share is defined as earnings per share excluding adjusted items and amortisation of acquired intangibles.
The measure is derived by dividing profit after tax, adjusted for post-tax adjusted items and amortisation of acquired
intangibles, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the financial period, excluding own shares held.
This APM is a measure of management\u2019s view of the Group\u2019s underlying earnings per share.
The closest equivalent IFRS measure is earnings per share. Refer to Note 9 for a reconciliation between earnings per share and
adjusted earnings per share.
As noted above, adjusted earnings per share has been redefined to exclude the amortisation of intangibles acquired in business
combinations. The relevant 2023 comparatives have been restated for the change in definition as explained in Note 9.
f) Net free cash flow
Net free cash flow is defined as net cash from operating activities less repayment of IFRS 16 lease liabilities and net cash used in
investing activities, excluding the acquisition of subsidiaries (net of any cash acquired), divestments and purchase of
investments. This measure is used to monitor cash generation. A reconciliation between net cash from operating activities and
net free cash flow is presented below.

29. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
On 28 February 2025, the Group acquired the entire issued share capital of Marshall Vizard LLP (and its holding companies), a
Watford lettings agent, for a consideration of \u00a32.3 million on a debt free and cash free basis. The consideration was fully satisfied in
cash, with \u00a30.5 million deferred for 12 months subject to performance conditions. Unaudited revenue and operating profit for the
12 months ended 31 March 2024 was \u00a30.9 million and \u00a30.5 million respectively. Gross assets at 31 March 2024 were \u00a31.1 million.
Given the proximity of the transaction to the announcement of the Group\u2019s financial statements, a full purchase price allocation
exercise has not yet been completed and the valuation of the assets acquired will be assessed prior to the next reporting date.
