ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Consolidated Financial Statements are 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 have been applied consistently in the current and prior year, except for changes required by the adoption of new standards, amendments and interpretations as described below. The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following: \u2022 Certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) \u2013 measured at fair value. \u2022 Defined benefit pension plans \u2013 plan assets measured at fair value. \u2022 Hyperinflationary accounting in Ghana (for the periods ended 31 May 2025 and 31 May 2024 only). The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with IFRS, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting year. Although these estimates are based on management\u2019s best knowledge of the amounts, events or actions, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. Key sources of estimation uncertainty are described on pages 130 to 131. Going concern The Group\u2019s business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Strategic Report. The financial position of the Group, liquidity position and available borrowing facilities are described within the Financial Review. In addition, note 19 of the Consolidated Financial Statements includes policies in relation to the Group\u2019s financial instruments and risk management and policies for managing credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk, foreign exchange risk, price risk, cash flow and interest rate risk and capital risk. The Group meets its funding requirements through internal cash generation and borrowings. Borrowings are amounts drawn under both committed and uncommitted borrowing facilities. The Group had, as at 31 May 2026 a \u00a3200.0 million committed Revolving Credit Facility which is available for general corporate purposes and a \u00a370.0 million Term Loan. As at 31 May 2026, the Group had headroom on the committed facility of \u00a3193.1 million and net debt of \u00a325.0 million comprising cash of \u00a351.9 million and borrowings of \u00a376.9 million. On 9 June 2026, the Group agreed terms on a new four-year \u00a3225.0 million Revolving Credit Facility (see note 19 for further details). In assessing going concern, the Group has prepared both base case and severe but plausible cash flow forecasts for a period of 18 months until the end of November 2027 (the going concern review period), which is at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. The Group\u2019s base case forecasts are based on the Board-approved budget and the first year of the current five-year plan and indicate forecasted continued compliance with its banking covenants and sufficient liquidity throughout the going concern review period. Management has prepared a base case forecast for the going concern period and, consistent with the approach taken at 31 May 2025, has modelled the following severe but plausible downside scenarios: a 5% reduction in Group revenue, a Group gross margin decline of 200bps and a 10% decline in the Naira exchange rate from the USD/NGN 1,450 rate used in the base case forecast. The scenario set has been updated in FY26 to reflect emerging geopolitical risks, including a prolonged conflict in the Middle East with the impact extending to 18 months. None of these severe but plausible scenarios, either separately or in combination with another, forecast a breach in covenants prior to management action and there remain mitigating actions available to management should they be required. The Directors consider it appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements. (a) New and amended accounting standards adopted by the Group The following amended standards and interpretations were adopted by the Group during the year ending 31 May 2026: \u2022 Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates issued in August 2023. These amended standards have not had a significant impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. (b) New accounting standards and interpretations in issue but not yet effective The following new and amended standards have been issued which are not yet effective: \u2022 Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures (effective from 1 January 2026). \u2022 Annual Improvements to the following IFRS Accounting Standards Volume 11 (effective from 1 January 2026). \u2022 IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (effective from 1 January 2027). \u2022 IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures (effective from 1 January 2027). \u2022 Amendments to IAS 21 Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency (effective from 1 January 2027). \u2022 IFRS S1 General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information and IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures, effective from 1 January 2024 (subject to endorsement and applicability in the UK reporting framework). The Group continues to assess the expected impact of these standards. Based on current assessments: \u2022 the amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 and the Annual Improvements, are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group\u2019s Consolidated Financial Statements; \u2022 the amendments to IAS 21 are not expected to have a significant impact unless the Group adopts a hyperinflationary presentation currency; and \u2022 IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 may result in enhanced sustainability-related disclosures in the Group\u2019s Annual Report and Accounts, subject to regulatory adoption and implementation requirements. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and introduces new presentation and disclosure requirements, particularly for the Income Statement. IFRS 18 does not affect the recognition or measurement of items in the financial statements. The requirements are effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with retrospective application required, including specified reconciliations for comparative periods. The Group is currently assessing the impact of IFRS 18 on presentation and disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Although the adoption of IFRS 18 will have no impact on the Group\u2019s profit after taxation, there will be an impact on presentation of the primary financial statements and certain disclosures. To date, the following potential impacts have been identified: \u2022 Items of income and expenses presented in the Consolidated Income Statement will be grouped into the new categories: operating, investing, financing, income taxes, and discontinued operations. \u2022 An additional mandatory subtotal for \u2018Profit/(loss) before financing and income taxes\u2019 will be presented. \u2022 The enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation will require some changes to line items presented in the primary financial statements, however these changes are not expected to be significant. \u2022 Certain new or enhanced disclosures will be required for: \u2013 management-defined performance measures (MPMs), most of which are currently disclosed as part of Alternative Performance Measures; \u2013 a breakdown of the nature of expenses for line items presented by function in the operating category of the Consolidated Income Statement; and \u2013 a reconciliation for each line item in the Consolidated Income Statement between the restated amounts and amounts previously published upon transition from IAS 1 to IFRS 18. \u2022 There will be a minor impact on the presentation of the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, as the starting point for the cash flow statement will be the \u2018Operating profit/(loss)\u2019 subtotal. The Group intends to adopt IFRS 18 for the reporting period commencing 1 June 2027. Preparatory activities are underway to ensure readiness for adoption, including updates to reporting systems and the chart of accounts. (c) Accounting policies Basis of consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements incorporate the financial statements of PZ Cussons plc and entities controlled by PZ Cussons plc (its subsidiaries) made up to 31 May each year. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the financial and operational policies of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any investment retained is recognised at fair value. The total profits or losses of subsidiaries are included in the Consolidated Income Statement and any amounts attributable to non-controlling interests are stated as the non-controlling interest\u2019s proportion of the fair values of the assets and liabilities recognised. Comprehensive income attributable to the non-controlling interests is attributed to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests recognising a deficit balance. The interest of non-controlling interests in the acquiree is initially measured at the non-controlling interest\u2019s proportion of the net fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. Where non-controlling interests are acquired, the excess of cost over the value of the non- controlling interest acquired is recorded in equity. Where necessary, the financial statements of subsidiaries are adjusted to conform to the Group\u2019s accounting policies. Intra-group transactions and balances, and any unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group companies, are eliminated on consolidation. Business combinations and goodwill Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, which is measured at acquisition date fair value, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree\u2019s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred and included in administrative expenses. The acquiree\u2019s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under IFRS 3 Business Combinations are, with limited exceptions, recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. Where acquisitions are achieved in stages, commonly referred to as \u2018stepped acquisitions\u2019, and result in control being obtained by the Group as part of a transaction, the Group re-assesses the fair value of any existing investment as part of determining the fair value of consideration. In determining the fair value of the Group\u2019s existing interest, reference is given to the fair value of consideration paid to increase the Group\u2019s interest in the existing investment as well as considering the specific fair values of assets and liabilities transferred to gain control. Any increase or impairment of the Group\u2019s existing investment is credited/charged to the Consolidated Income Statement. Goodwill arising on a business combination represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group\u2019s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary recognised at the date of acquisition. Goodwill arising on the acquisition of a subsidiary is separately presented on the Group\u2019s Consolidated Balance Sheet. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognised at the acquisition date. If the re-assessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement. Goodwill is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if there are indicators of impairment. The method used for impairment testing is to allocate goodwill to appropriate cash generating units (CGUs) based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows, and to estimate the recoverable amounts of the CGUs as the higher of the asset\u2019s fair values less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. For the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez (the former Beauty brands) is allocated to a group of CGUs, reflecting the level at which the related acquisition synergies are generated and monitored. An impairment arises if the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount, in which case 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. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill cannot be reversed in a subsequent period. On disposal of a subsidiary or an equity method investment, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal. Investments in joint ventures Under IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor, rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. The Group has assessed the nature of its joint arrangements and determined them to be joint ventures. Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, interests in joint ventures are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group\u2019s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses and movements in other comprehensive income. When the Group\u2019s share of losses in a joint venture equals or exceeds its interests in the joint ventures (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group\u2019s net investment in the joint ventures), the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint ventures. After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on its investment in its joint ventures. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in joint ventures is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the joint venture and its carrying value, and then recognises the loss within \u2018Share of results of joint venture\u2019 in the Consolidated Income Statement. Revenue Revenue comprises sales of goods after the deduction of discounts, trade spend, rebates and sales-related taxes. It does not include intra-group sales. Trade promotions, which consist primarily of customer pricing allowances, placement/listing fees and promotional allowances, are governed by agreements with our trade customers (retailers and distributors). Discounts can either be immediately deducted from the sales value on the invoice or settled later through credit notes. Rebates are generally in the form of credit notes. Amounts provided for discounts payable at the end of a period require estimation; historical data and accumulated experience is used to estimate the provision using the most likely amount method and in most cases the discount can be estimated with a high level of accuracy using known facts. These amounts are reported within Trade and other payables. Any differences between actual amounts settled and the amounts provided are not material and recognised in the subsequent reporting period. Customer contracts generally contain a single performance obligation and revenue is recognised when control of the products has transferred to our customer as there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations to the customer. This is generally on delivery to the customer but depending on specific customer terms, this can be at the time of dispatch, delivery or upon formal customer acceptance. This is considered the appropriate point where the performance obligations in our contracts are satisfied as the Group no longer has control over the inventory. Estimating the amount of variable consideration associated with discounts and assessing whether other consideration payable to customers (e.g. marketing investment payments) represents payment for a distinct good or service, requires a degree of estimation and judgement applied by management. Trade promotions The Group provides for amounts payable to trade customers for promotional activity. Where a promotional activity spans across the year- end, an accrual is reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements based on our expectation of customer and consumer uptake during the promotional period and the extent to which temporary promotional activity has occurred. Where promotions, rebates or discounts give rise to variable consideration, the Group accounts for this by using the \u2018most likely amount\u2019 method and this is generally estimated using known facts with a high degree of accuracy. Revenue is constrained to the extent that variable consideration has been taken into account for the period and that no reversal in consideration is expected. Foreign currencies The financial statements of each Group entity are prepared in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (its functional currency). For the purpose of the Consolidated Financial Statements, the results and financial position of each entity are presented in Pound Sterling, which is the functional currency of the Company, and the presentational currency for the Consolidated Financial Statements. In preparing the financial statements of the individual entities, transactions in currencies other than the entity\u2019s functional currency are recorded at the actual rate of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions, or at average rates of exchange if they represent a suitable approximation to the actual rate. At each balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the local entity are translated at the appropriate rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from the settlement of these transactions, and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement, except when deferred in equity as qualifying hedges or permanent as equity balances. In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, the balances in individual Group companies are translated from their functional currency into the Group reporting currency (Pound Sterling). Apart from the financial statements of Group companies in hyperinflationary economies (see below), the income statement, the cash flow statement and all other movements in assets and liabilities are translated at average exchange rates for the year as a proxy for the transaction rate, or at the transaction rate itself if more appropriate. Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Cumulative foreign currency translation differences arising on the translation and consolidation of foreign operations\u2019 income statements and balance sheets denominated in foreign currencies are recorded as a separate component of equity. To determine the existence of hyperinflation, the Group assesses the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the economic environment of the country, such as the cumulative inflation rate over the previous three years. The financial statements of a Group company whose functional currency is that of a hyperinflationary economy are adjusted for inflation and then translated into Pound Sterling using the balance sheet exchange rate. See further details below. On disposal of a foreign operation the cumulative translation differences will be transferred to the income statement in the period of the disposal as part of the gain or loss on disposal. Repayments of permanent as equity balances are not considered full or partial disposals, since the parent company continues to own the same percentage of the subsidiary and as a result there is no recycling of exchange differences from other comprehensive income to the Consolidated Income Statement unless the repayment occurs as part of the sale of a subsidiary. Hyperinflationary economies Ghana was designated as a hyperinflationary economy for the years ended 31 May 2024 and 31 May 2025. As a result, IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies has been applied from 1 June 2023 to 31 May 2025 in respect of the Group\u2019s Ghanaian subsidiary undertaking. The application of IAS 29 includes: \u2022 Adjustment to historical cost non-monetary assets and liabilities for the change in purchasing power caused by inflation from the date of initial recognition to the current balance sheet date. \u2022 Adjustment to the income statement for inflation during the current reporting period. \u2022 Translation of income statement at the period-end foreign exchange rate instead of an average rate. \u2022 Adjustment to the income statement to reflect the impact of inflation and exchange rate movement on holding monetary assets and liabilities in local currency. For the year ended 31 May 2026, Ghana is no longer a hyperinflationary economy and as such, no further adjustments have been made under IAS 29. The comparative information in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 May 2025 was not re-stated as it was presented in a stable currency (Pound Sterling). Finance income Finance income includes interest receivable on cash and cash equivalents, interest receivable on loans to joint venture, net finance income in relation to defined benefit pension schemes, finance income in relation to leases and the change in the fair value of deferred consideration on business combinations. Finance expense Finance expense includes interest expense in relation to financial liabilities (which includes the unwind of the discount rate applied to lease liabilities), finance expense on defined benefit pension schemes, amortisation of fees incurred in arranging financing and the change in the fair value of deferred purchase consideration on business combinations. Adjusting items Adjusting items are material in value or related to significant one-off changes in the structure or value of the business. Certain adjusting items may be recognised across multiple years if, for example, they are deemed to be part of a significant transformation project which would not be expected to recur. Such projects are required to be agreed upfront with a clear scope, timeline and budget. The Directors apply judgement in assessing the presentation of such items as adjusting items. The Directors believe that the separate disclosure of these items is relevant to an understanding of the Group\u2019s financial performance by providing an alternative and meaningful basis upon which to analyse underlying business performance and make year-on-year comparisons. The same measures are used by management for planning, budgeting and reporting purposes, and for the internal assessment of operating performance across the Group. These alternative performance measures should be viewed as supplemental to, but not as a substitute for, measures presented in the consolidated financial information relating to the Group, which are prepared in accordance with IFRS. Further, they may not be comparable with similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the way they are calculated. Taxation Taxation on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred taxation. Taxation is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised within that statement. Current taxation is the expected taxation payable on the taxable income for the year, using taxation rates enacted or substantively enacted at the financial year-end date, and any adjustment to taxation payable in respect of previous years. Deferred taxation is provided on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognised for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes, on an undiscounted basis. The amount of deferred taxation provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, using taxation rates enacted or substantively enacted at the financial year-end date. Deferred taxation liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and interests in joint ventures, 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 Group has previously adopted the amendment to IAS 12 Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction and as a result recognises a separate deferred taxation asset in relation to its lease liabilities and a deferred taxation liability in relation to its right-of-use assets, even if balances qualify for offset under paragraph 74 of IAS 12. On 23 May 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board issued International Tax Reform Pillar Two Model Rules \u2013 Amendments to IAS 12. The Group continues to apply the mandatory temporary exception to the accounting for deferred taxation arising from implementation of the Pillar Two rules set out therein. Deferred taxation assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current taxation assets against current taxation liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current taxation liabilities on a net basis. A deferred taxation asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be used. The Group maintains adequate provisions for potential liabilities that may arise from periods that remain open and not yet agreed by tax authorities. The ultimate liability for such matters may vary from the amounts provided and is dependent upon the outcome of agreements with relevant tax authorities. In assessing uncertain tax treatments, management is required to make judgements in determination of the facts and circumstances in respect of the tax position taken, together with estimates of amounts that may be required to be paid in ultimate settlement with the tax authorities. As the Group operates in a multi-national tax environment, the nature of the uncertain tax positions is often complex and subject to change. Original estimates are refined as and when additional information becomes known. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment with the exception of freehold land which is shown at cost less accumulated impairment. Except for freehold land and assets in the course of construction, the cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the period of the expected useful life of the asset. The annual depreciation charge falls within the following limits: Freehold buildings at rates not less than 2% per annum Plant and machinery not less than 8% per annum Fixtures, fittings and vehicles not less than 20% per annum In the case of major projects, depreciation is provided from the date the project is brought into use. An asset is derecognised from the Consolidated Balance Sheet when it is sold or retired and no future economic benefits are expected from that asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement 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 when the asset is derecognised. Residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. Property, plant and equipment is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset\u2019s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Property, plant and equipment that has been impaired is reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each subsequent balance sheet date. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the value that would have been determined had an impairment loss not been recognised in prior years. Impairment loss or reversal of impairment is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement as part of administrative expense. Investment properties On acquisition, an investment property is initially recognised at cost. Investment property is subsequently recognised at cost less accumulated impairment and is presented as a separate line on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Gains or losses on disposal are recognised within administrative expenses in the Consolidated Income Statement. Other intangible assets Other intangible assets comprise brands and software. Brands An acquired brand is only recognised on the Consolidated Balance Sheet where it is supported by a registered trademark, where brand earnings are separately identifiable or the brand could be sold separately from the rest of the business. Brands acquired as part of a business combination are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value at the date of acquisition. Trademarks, patents and purchased brands are recorded at cost less accumulated impairment. The Directors believe that acquired brands have indefinite lives because, having considered all relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the brands are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group. Further, the Directors have the intention and the ability to maintain the brands. In forming this conclusion, the Directors have not taken into consideration planned future expenditure in excess of that required to maintain the asset at that standard of performance. In accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, as the brands have indefinite lives they are tested for impairment annually, and more frequently where there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. The method used for impairment testing is similar to that used for goodwill whereby the brand is allocated to a CGU based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows. The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined as the higher of the asset\u2019s fair value less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. An impairment arises if the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount. Any impairment is recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement. Software Expenditure on research activities is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement as an expense as incurred. Expenditure on development activities directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable software products and systems are capitalised if the product or systems meet the following criteria: \u2022 The completion of the development is technically and commercially feasible to complete. \u2022 Adequate technical resources are sufficiently available to complete development. \u2022 It can be demonstrated that future economic benefits are probable. \u2022 The expenditure attributable to the development can be measured reliably. Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products or systems. Directly attributable costs that are capitalised as part of the software product or system include employee costs. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria as well as ongoing maintenance costs are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs for software are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and are amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful lives (not exceeding ten years) at the point at which they come into use. Leases Lessee accounting 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 and leases of low-value assets where the Group recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The use of these exemptions does not have a material impact. Right-of-use assets At commencement date, right-of-use assets are measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement day and any initial direct costs. After initial recognition right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. They are also assessed for impairment where indicators of impairment exist. Lease liabilities Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, excluding those paid at the commencement date, discounted at the rate implicit in the lease, or if that cannot be readily determined, at the Group\u2019s incremental borrowing rate specific to the term, country, currency and start date of the lease. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise: \u2022 Fixed lease payments (including in substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable. \u2022 Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date. \u2022 The exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option. \u2022 Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate the lease. Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs. The carrying value of the lease liability is subsequently increased to reflect interest on the lease liability and reduced by the lease payment made. The carrying amount of lease liabilities is re-measured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g. changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. Lease liabilities are presented as a separate line in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, within current and non-current liabilities. As a practical expedient, IFRS 16 Leases permits a lessee not to separate non-lease components, and instead account for any lease and associated non-lease components as a single arrangement. The Group has not used this practical expedient. Lessor accounting When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease. To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, the lease is classified as a finance lease, otherwise as an operating lease. Operating leases If a lease is classified as an operating lease, the Group does not derecognise the underlying asset from its balance sheet and continues to recognise depreciation and impairment losses on the asset. Rental income arising from operating leases is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. Finance leases If a lease is classified as a finance lease, the Group derecognises the underlying asset from its balance sheet and recognises a lease receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease. The net investment in the lease is the present value of the lease payments and any unguaranteed residual value of the underlying asset, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. The Group recognises finance income over the lease term, based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease. The Group presents the lease receivable in trade and other receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and estimated net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is calculated based on standard costs based on normal operating conditions with price and usage variances apportioned using the periodic unit pricing method. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution. Where net realisable value is lower than cost, provision for impairment is made which is charged to cost of sales in the Consolidated Income Statement. Assets held for sale Non-current assets and groups of assets and liabilities which comprise disposal groups are classified as \u2018held for sale\u2019 when their carrying amount will be recoverable principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. To be classified as a \u2018held for sale\u2019 asset or disposal group, the sale must be highly probable and the assets must be available for sale immediately in their present condition. In addition, all of the following criteria must also be met: \u2022 management is committed to the plan to sell; \u2022 the assets are being actively marketed; \u2022 actions required to complete the plan should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn; and \u2022 a sale has been agreed or is expected to be concluded within 12 months of the balance sheet date. Immediately prior to classification as held for sale, the value of the assets or groups of assets is re-measured in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. Subsequently, assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of book value or fair value less disposal costs. Assets held for sale are neither depreciated nor amortised. Cash, cash equivalents and bank overdrafts Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and in hand, call and short-term deposits and other highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts are repayable on demand and form part of the Group\u2019s cash management arrangements. Financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Consolidated Balance Sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Derivative financial instruments The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as forward foreign exchange contracts and interest rate caps to manage its exposures to risks associated with foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations. These instruments are measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of any derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement. Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges Derivatives designated as the hedging instruments are classified at inception of hedge relationship as cash flow hedges. There are no fair value hedges or net investment hedges in the Group. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the hedging reserve. Ineffective portions are recognised in profit or loss immediately. When the hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial item such as inventory, the amount accumulated in the hedging reserve and the cost of hedging reserve is included directly in the initial cost of the non-financial item when it is recognised. For all other transactions, the amounts accumulated in the hedging reserve are recycled to the Consolidated Income Statement in the period (or periods) when the hedged item affects the Consolidated Income Statement.
Financial assets
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or
loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried
at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss.
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
\u2022 Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income or profit or loss).
\u2022 Those to be measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. The
Group\u2019s financial assets are subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair value through profit or loss, depending on their classification.
Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or (b) substantially all the
risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party, or (c) control of the asset has been transferred to another party
who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions.
(a) Trade receivables
Trade and other receivables are initially measured at transaction price, and subsequently at amortised cost. The amortised cost for trade and
other receivables is generally equivalent to the invoiced amount less allowance for expected credit losses (ECL). The ECL is based on the
difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and the present value of all the cash flows that the Group
expects to receive. The Group has elected to use the simplified approach in calculating ECL and recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime
ECLs at each reporting date (i.e. the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of the financial
instrument). The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when it is unlikely that the borrower will pay its credit obligations in full,
without recourse by the Group. This includes situations where the borrower is in significant financial difficulty or has breached contractual
terms. The Group has applied the practical expedient to calculate ECLs using a provision matrix based on the Group\u2019s historical credit loss
experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions and an assessment of both the current as well as
the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date.
Trade receivables are fully impaired and subsequently written off when all possible routes through which amounts can be recovered have been
exhausted. The Group recognises any impairment gain or loss in the Consolidated Income Statement with a corresponding adjustment to the
financial asset\u2019s carrying amount through a loss allowance account.
(b) Loans to joint ventures
The Group\u2019s loans to the joint venture (presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as part of the \u2018net investment in joint ventures\u2019) are measured
initially at fair value and are subsequently held at amortised cost less an ECL allowance. The loans are assessed for an ECL allowance as follows:
\u2022 Where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition \u2013 the Group measures ECL based on lifetime ECLs i.e. all
credit losses expected from possible default events over the remaining life of the loan, irrespective of the timing of the default.
\u2022 Where there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition \u2013 the Group measures the loss allowance at an amount
equal to 12-month ECL i.e. the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default events on the loan that are possible within 12
months after the reporting date.
In assessing whether the credit risk has increased significantly on the loan to the joint venture since initial recognition, the Group compares
the risk of a default occurring on the loan at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the loan at the date of initial recognition.
In making this assessment, the Group considers, in particular, the financial and operational performance of a joint venture, changes to the
financial forecasts, or increases in credit risk on other receivables. Any associated loss allowance related to loans to joint ventures is recorded in
administration expense in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Financial liabilities and equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity
instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities.
(a) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings
Interest-bearing bank loans, borrowings and overdrafts are initially recorded at fair value, net of directly related fees, and are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Gains and losses arising on the repurchase, settlement or other cancellation of interest-bearing loans and borrowings are recognised in finance
income and finance costs, respectively.
(b) Trade payables
Trade payables are initially recognised at fair value, normally being the invoiced amounts, and subsequently measured at amortised cost,
using the effective interest rate method.
(c) Trade payables under vendor financing arrangements
The Group may from time to time enter into arrangements with a bank or banking partners under which the bank offers vendors the option to
receive early settlement of its trade receivables. Vendors using such arrangement pay a fee to the bank. The Group does not pay any fees and
does not provide any additional collateral or guarantee to the bank. Based on the Group\u2019s assessment, the liabilities under the vendor advance
arrangement are closely related to operating purchase activities with no significant change in the nature or function of the liabilities. These
liabilities are therefore classified as trade payables with separate disclosures in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The credit
period does not exceed 12 months and are not discounted.
Share capital and reserves
The types of reserves presented in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity are:
\u2022 Treasury shares: when shares recognised as equity are repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, including directly attributable
costs, is recognised as a charge to equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented as a deduction from equity
attributable to the Company\u2019s equity holders. When Treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognised as
an increase in equity attributable to the Company\u2019s equity holders.
\u2022 Capital redemption reserve: includes amounts in respect of the redemption of certain of the Company\u2019s ordinary shares.
\u2022 Hedging reserve: changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedges of future cash flows
are recognised in the hedging reserve through other comprehensive income.
\u2022 Currency translation reserve: the currency translation reserve recognises the cumulative effect of foreign exchange differences arising on
translation of the Group\u2019s overseas operations from their local functional currency to the Group\u2019s presentational currency.
\u2022 Retained earnings for the Group are made up of accumulated reserves.
\u2022 Other reserves relate to the Group\u2019s share-based payment schemes.
\u2022 Non-controlling interests: the non-controlling interest\u2019s proportion of the fair values of the assets and liabilities recognised.
Retirement benefit and similar obligations
The Group operates retirement benefit schemes in the UK and for certain overseas operations. In the UK, these comprise defined benefit
schemes, each of which was closed to future accrual on 31 May 2008, and defined contribution schemes. Overseas schemes are
predominantly defined contribution schemes, with the exception of PZ Cussons Indonesia, which operates a defined benefit scheme.
The Group accounts for its main defined benefit scheme under IAS 19 Employee Benefits. The deficit/surplus of the defined benefit pension
scheme is recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet (with surpluses only recognised to the extent that the Group has an unconditional
right to a refund) and represents the difference between the fair value of the plan assets and the present value of the defined benefit obligation
at the balance sheet date. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows
using interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms
to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation. Pension expense/income recognised in the Consolidated Income
Statement consists of administration charges for the scheme, past service costs and a cost/income based on the net interest expense/income
on net pension scheme liabilities/surpluses. Net interest is calculated by applying a discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. Past
service cost is recognised in profit or loss when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs, or when the Group recognises related restructuring
costs or termination benefits, if earlier. Re-measurements comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling and the return
on plan assets (excluding interest) are included directly in other comprehensive income. Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit
schemes are charged as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.
Share-based payments
The Group operates a number of long-term incentive schemes which provide share awards to Executive Directors and certain senior employees.
The Group also operates a Share Incentive Plan (SIP) scheme which is open to UK employees.
The awards under these plans are measured at the fair value at the date of grant and are expensed over the vesting period based on the expected
outcome of the performance, where they apply, and service conditions. At each balance sheet date, the estimate of the number of awards that
are expected to vest is assessed, and the impact of the revision, if any, is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement, with a corresponding
adjustment to equity.
Dividend distributions
Dividend distributions which are subject to shareholder approval are recognised as a liability in the period in which the approval is given. Interim
dividends, which do not require shareholder approval, are recognised when paid.
Consideration of climate change In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, management has considered the impact of climate change, particularly in the context of the risks identified in the TCFD disclosures on pages 29 to 32. There has been no material impact identified on the financial reporting judgements and estimates. In particular, management considered the impact of climate change in respect of the following areas: \u2022 Assessment of impairment of goodwill, other intangibles and tangible assets. \u2022 Assessment of impairment of financial assets. \u2022 Going concern and viability disclosures. \u2022 Impact on useful economic lives of assets. \u2022 Preparation of budgets and cash flow forecasts. Given the low value of short-term (1\u20135 years) risk to these areas assessed in the TCFD report, no climate change-related impact was identified. The viability assessment on pages 41 to 42 includes an assessment of severe but plausible scenarios, including climate change risks, with the potential to impact future performance, but none of these are considered likely to give rise to a trading deterioration of the magnitude indicated by the stress-testing or to threaten the viability of the business over the five-year assessment period. Management is, however, aware of the changing nature of risks associated with climate change and regularly assesses these risks against judgements and estimates made in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Accounting estimates and judgements The Group\u2019s material accounting policies under IFRS have been set by management with the approval of the Audit and Risk Committee. The application of these policies requires management to make assumptions and estimates about future events. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, differ from the actual results. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Key sources of estimation uncertainty as described below, relate to areas more likely to be materially adjusted within the next 12 months due to the inherent uncertainty regarding estimates and assumptions. Key sources of estimation uncertainty Pensions The cost of defined benefit pension schemes and the present value of the pension obligation are determined using actuarial assumptions in those valuations. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to the complexity of the valuation, the underlying assumptions and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. Significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in key assumptions could affect the retirement benefit surplus/obligations and the net interest expense. In determining the discount rate, management considers the interest rates of corporate bonds with at least an \u2018AA\u2019 rating or above and having terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation to be appropriate. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific countries. Those mortality tables tend to change only at intervals in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases and pension increases are based on expected future inflation rates for the respective countries. See note 23 for details of key estimates and assumptions applied in valuing the pension schemes. Current taxation Current taxation liabilities/assets relate to the expected amount of taxation to be paid/received as a result of the operating performance of the Group\u2019s entities. In calculating the appropriate taxation charge, assumptions and judgements are made regarding application and interpretation of local laws. In situations where tax impacts are subject to uncertain treatment, interpretation of local rule or regulation, or otherwise remain to be agreed with relevant tax authorities, an estimate of any resulting financial impact may be recorded in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Any such management estimates are made in accordance with IFRS requirements, including IAS 12 Income Taxes and IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments when considering income tax and IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets in relation to non-income taxes. Due to the uncertainty associated with such tax items, there is a possibility that on conclusion of open tax matters at a future date, the final outcome may differ significantly from the original amounts recorded. Where the eventual taxation paid or reclaimed is different to the amounts originally estimated, the difference will be charged or credited to the income statement in the period in which it is determined.
Included within the current taxation liability of the Group are current taxation estimates with net carrying values as at 31 May 2026 of
\u00a333.7 million (2025: \u00a323.1 million), of which \u00a323.0 million (2025: \u00a321.7 million) relates to a single estimate arising due to a difference in
technical standpoint between PZ Cussons plc and a tax authority on a subjective and complex piece of legislation. Due to the known difference
in technical standpoint, this potential taxation liability has been provided for in full as the range of possible outcomes could be a liability up to
the full value of the provided amount, however the potential future settlement remains a cash risk. The increase in year primarily relates to an
increase in risk that certain matters previously recorded as contingent liabilities will crystallise. The most material item relates to an overseas
court verdict that found against the Group and the possible crossover risk into later years, which will continue to be appealed by the Group.
In addition to the provision items indicated above, as at 31 May 2026, the Group had further contingent taxation liabilities of \u00a38.4 million
(2025: \u00a318.5 million) and contingent assets of \u00a31.5 million (2025: \u00a30.5 million). Items recorded as contingent liabilities include the interpretation
of new tax laws implemented in an overseas jurisdiction, and amounts recorded as contingent assets relate to ongoing discussions with a
local tax authority. Such positions have been disclosed in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.
Deferred taxation assets \u2013 temporary differences
Deferred taxation is provided on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognised for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes, on an undiscounted basis. The amount of deferred taxation provided is based on the
expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted
at the financial year-end date.
Assessment of impairment of goodwill and other indefinite life assets
Goodwill and brands have all arisen from business combinations and all have indefinite useful lives and, in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment
of Assets, are subject to annual impairment testing (which the Group carries out at the year-end date), or more frequently if there are indicators
of impairment. The method used for impairment testing is to allocate assets (including goodwill and brands) to appropriate CGUs based on
the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows, and to estimate the recoverable amounts of the CGUs as the
higher of the asset\u2019s fair values less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. For the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, goodwill associated
with the acquisitions of the former Beauty brands is allocated to a group of CGUs, reflecting the level at which the related acquisition synergies
are generated and monitored. Value-in-use is determined using cash flow projections from approved budgets and plans which are then
extrapolated based on estimated long-term growth rates applicable to the markets and geographies in which the CGUs operate.
The cash flow projections are discounted based on a pre-tax weighted average cost of capital for comparable companies operating in similar
markets and geographies as the Group adjusted for risks specific to the particular CGU. The assumptions used in the cash flow projections, and
associated sensitivities, are described and set out in note 10.
Critical areas of judgment
Assessment of useful lives of acquired brands
The Directors are required to assess whether the useful lives of acquired brands are finite or indefinite. Under IAS 38 Intangible Assets, an
intangible asset should be regarded as having an indefinite useful life when, based on all of the relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to
the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows for the entity.
Deferred tax assets \u2013 unused tax losses
A deferred taxation asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset
can be used. Deferred taxation assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be
available against which they can be used. At 31 May 2026, the Group recorded a deferred taxation asset of \u00a321.5 million (2025: \u00a326.8 million)

The Consolidated Financial Statements are 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 have
been applied consistently in the current and prior year, except for changes required by the adoption of new standards, amendments and
interpretations as described below.
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following:
\u2022 Certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) \u2013 measured at fair value.
\u2022 Defined benefit pension plans \u2013 plan assets measured at fair value.
\u2022 Hyperinflationary accounting in Ghana (for the periods ended 31 May 2025 and 31 May 2024 only).
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with IFRS, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting year. Although these estimates are based on management\u2019s best knowledge of the amounts, events or actions, actual results may
ultimately differ from those estimates. Key sources of estimation uncertainty are described on pages 130 to 131.

Going concern
The Group\u2019s business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the
Strategic Report. The financial position of the Group, liquidity position and available borrowing facilities are described within the Financial
Review. In addition, note 19 of the Consolidated Financial Statements includes policies in relation to the Group\u2019s financial instruments and risk
management and policies for managing credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk, foreign exchange risk, price risk, cash flow and interest rate risk
and capital risk.
The Group meets its funding requirements through internal cash generation and borrowings. Borrowings are amounts drawn under both
committed and uncommitted borrowing facilities. The Group had, as at 31 May 2026 a \u00a3200.0 million committed Revolving Credit Facility which
is available for general corporate purposes and a \u00a370.0 million Term Loan. As at 31 May 2026, the Group had headroom on the committed
facility of \u00a3193.1 million and net debt of \u00a325.0 million comprising cash of \u00a351.9 million and borrowings of \u00a376.9 million. On 9 June 2026, the
Group agreed terms on a new four-year \u00a3225.0 million Revolving Credit Facility (see note 19 for further details).
In assessing going concern, the Group has prepared both base case and severe but plausible cash flow forecasts for a period of 18 months until
the end of November 2027 (the going concern review period), which is at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.
The Group\u2019s base case forecasts are based on the Board-approved budget and the first year of the current five-year plan and indicate forecasted
continued compliance with its banking covenants and sufficient liquidity throughout the going concern review period. Management has
prepared a base case forecast for the going concern period and, consistent with the approach taken at 31 May 2025, has modelled the following
severe but plausible downside scenarios: a 5% reduction in Group revenue, a Group gross margin decline of 200bps and a 10% decline in
the Naira exchange rate from the USD/NGN 1,450 rate used in the base case forecast. The scenario set has been updated in FY26 to reflect
emerging geopolitical risks, including a prolonged conflict in the Middle East with the impact extending to 18 months. None of these severe but
plausible scenarios, either separately or in combination with another, forecast a breach in covenants prior to management action and there
remain mitigating actions available to management should they be required. The Directors consider it appropriate to continue to adopt the going
concern basis in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Basis of consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements incorporate the financial statements of PZ Cussons plc and entities controlled by PZ Cussons plc (its
subsidiaries) made up to 31 May each year. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its
involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the financial and operational policies of the entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control
ceases. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any investment retained is recognised at fair value.
The total profits or losses of subsidiaries are included in the Consolidated Income Statement and any amounts attributable to non-controlling
interests are stated as the non-controlling interest\u2019s proportion of the fair values of the assets and liabilities recognised. Comprehensive income
attributable to the non-controlling interests is attributed to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests
recognising a deficit balance.
The interest of non-controlling interests in the acquiree is initially measured at the non-controlling interest\u2019s proportion of the net fair value of the
assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. Where non-controlling interests are acquired, the excess of cost over the value of the non-
controlling interest acquired is recorded in equity.
Where necessary, the financial statements of subsidiaries are adjusted to conform to the Group\u2019s accounting policies. Intra-group transactions
and balances, and any unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group companies, are eliminated on consolidation.

Business combinations and goodwill
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the
consideration transferred, which is measured at acquisition date fair value, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each
business combination, the Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share
of the acquiree\u2019s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred and included in administrative expenses.
The acquiree\u2019s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under IFRS 3 Business Combinations
are, with limited exceptions, recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date.
Where acquisitions are achieved in stages, commonly referred to as \u2018stepped acquisitions\u2019, and result in control being obtained by the Group
as part of a transaction, the Group re-assesses the fair value of any existing investment as part of determining the fair value of consideration. In
determining the fair value of the Group\u2019s existing interest, reference is given to the fair value of consideration paid to increase the Group\u2019s interest
in the existing investment as well as considering the specific fair values of assets and liabilities transferred to gain control. Any increase or
impairment of the Group\u2019s existing investment is credited/charged to the Consolidated Income Statement.
Goodwill arising on a business combination represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group\u2019s interest in the net fair value of the
identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary recognised at the date of acquisition. Goodwill arising on the acquisition
of a subsidiary is separately presented on the Group\u2019s Consolidated Balance Sheet.
If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly
identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognised
at the acquisition date. If the re-assessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration
transferred, then the gain is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Goodwill is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more
frequently if there are indicators of impairment. The method used for impairment testing is to allocate goodwill to appropriate cash generating
units (CGUs) based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows, and to estimate the recoverable
amounts of the CGUs as the higher of the asset\u2019s fair values less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. For the purposes of goodwill impairment
testing, goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez (the former Beauty brands) is
allocated to a group of CGUs, reflecting the level at which the related acquisition synergies are generated and monitored. An impairment arises
if the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount, in which case 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. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill cannot be reversed in a subsequent period. On disposal of a subsidiary or an equity
method investment, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

Impairment losses recognised for goodwill cannot be reversed in a subsequent period. On disposal of a subsidiary or an equity method investment, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal. Other intangible assets Other intangible assets comprise brands and software. Brands An acquired brand is only recognised on the Consolidated Balance Sheet where it is supported by a registered trademark, where brand earnings are separately identifiable or the brand could be sold separately from the rest of the business. Brands acquired as part of a business combination are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value at the date of acquisition. Trademarks, patents and purchased brands are recorded at cost less accumulated impairment. The Directors believe that acquired brands have indefinite lives because, having considered all relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the brands are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group. Further, the Directors have the intention and the ability to maintain the brands. In forming this conclusion, the Directors have not taken into consideration planned future expenditure in excess of that required to maintain the asset at that standard of performance. In accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, as the brands have indefinite lives they are tested for impairment annually, and more frequently where there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. The method used for impairment testing is similar to that used for goodwill whereby the brand is allocated to a CGU based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows. The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined as the higher of the asset\u2019s fair value less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. An impairment arises if the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount. Any impairment is recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement. Software Expenditure on research activities is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement as an expense as incurred. Expenditure on development activities directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable software products and systems are capitalised if the product or systems meet the following criteria: \u2022 The completion of the development is technically and commercially feasible to complete. \u2022 Adequate technical resources are sufficiently available to complete development. \u2022 It can be demonstrated that future economic benefits are probable. \u2022 The expenditure attributable to the development can be measured reliably. Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products or systems. Directly attributable costs that are capitalised as part of the software product or system include employee costs. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria as well as ongoing maintenance costs are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs for software are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and are amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful lives (not exceeding ten years) at the point at which they come into use.

The method used for impairment testing is to allocate goodwill to appropriate cash generating units (CGUs) based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows, and to estimate the recoverable amounts of the CGUs as the higher of the asset\u2019s fair values less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. For the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez (the former Beauty brands) is allocated to a group of CGUs, reflecting the level at which the related acquisition synergies are generated and monitored. An impairment arises if the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount, in which case 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. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill cannot be reversed in a subsequent period. On disposal of a subsidiary or an equity method investment, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

Investments in joint ventures
Under IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the
contractual rights and obligations of each investor, rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. The Group has assessed the nature of
its joint arrangements and determined them to be joint ventures. Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.
Under the equity method of accounting, interests in joint ventures are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the
Group\u2019s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses and movements in other comprehensive income.
When the Group\u2019s share of losses in a joint venture equals or exceeds its interests in the joint ventures (which includes any long-term interests
that, in substance, form part of the Group\u2019s net investment in the joint ventures), the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has
incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint ventures.
After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on its investment in its
joint ventures. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in joint ventures is impaired.
If there is such evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the joint venture
and its carrying value, and then recognises the loss within \u2018Share of results of joint venture\u2019 in the Consolidated Income Statement.

Revenue
Revenue comprises sales of goods after the deduction of discounts, trade spend, rebates and sales-related taxes. It does not include
intra-group sales. Trade promotions, which consist primarily of customer pricing allowances, placement/listing fees and promotional
allowances, are governed by agreements with our trade customers (retailers and distributors).
Discounts can either be immediately deducted from the sales value on the invoice or settled later through credit notes. Rebates are generally
in the form of credit notes. Amounts provided for discounts payable at the end of a period require estimation; historical data and accumulated
experience is used to estimate the provision using the most likely amount method and in most cases the discount can be estimated with a high
level of accuracy using known facts. These amounts are reported within Trade and other payables. Any differences between actual amounts
settled and the amounts provided are not material and recognised in the subsequent reporting period.
Customer contracts generally contain a single performance obligation and revenue is recognised when control of the products has transferred
to our customer as there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations to the customer. This is generally on delivery to the customer but depending on
specific customer terms, this can be at the time of dispatch, delivery or upon formal customer acceptance. This is considered the appropriate
point where the performance obligations in our contracts are satisfied as the Group no longer has control over the inventory. Estimating
the amount of variable consideration associated with discounts and assessing whether other consideration payable to customers (e.g.
marketing investment payments) represents payment for a distinct good or service, requires a degree of estimation and judgement applied
by management.
Trade promotions
The Group provides for amounts payable to trade customers for promotional activity. Where a promotional activity spans across the year-
end, an accrual is reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements based on our expectation of customer and consumer uptake during the
promotional period and the extent to which temporary promotional activity has occurred.
Where promotions, rebates or discounts give rise to variable consideration, the Group accounts for this by using the \u2018most likely amount\u2019 method
and this is generally estimated using known facts with a high degree of accuracy. Revenue is constrained to the extent that variable consideration
has been taken into account for the period and that no reversal in consideration is expected.

Foreign currencies
The financial statements of each Group entity are prepared in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (its
functional currency). For the purpose of the Consolidated Financial Statements, the results and financial position of each entity are presented in
Pound Sterling, which is the functional currency of the Company, and the presentational currency for the Consolidated Financial Statements.
In preparing the financial statements of the individual entities, transactions in currencies other than the entity\u2019s functional currency are
recorded at the actual rate of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions, or at average rates of exchange if they represent a suitable
approximation to the actual rate. At each balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the
functional currency of the local entity are translated at the appropriate rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange gains and
losses arising from the settlement of these transactions, and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies,
are recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement, except when deferred in equity as qualifying hedges or permanent as equity balances.
In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, the balances in individual Group companies are translated from their functional currency
into the Group reporting currency (Pound Sterling). Apart from the financial statements of Group companies in hyperinflationary economies
(see below), the income statement, the cash flow statement and all other movements in assets and liabilities are translated at average exchange
rates for the year as a proxy for the transaction rate, or at the transaction rate itself if more appropriate. Assets and liabilities are translated at
year-end exchange rates. Cumulative foreign currency translation differences arising on the translation and consolidation of foreign operations\u2019
income statements and balance sheets denominated in foreign currencies are recorded as a separate component of equity.
To determine the existence of hyperinflation, the Group assesses the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the economic environment of
the country, such as the cumulative inflation rate over the previous three years. The financial statements of a Group company whose functional
currency is that of a hyperinflationary economy are adjusted for inflation and then translated into Pound Sterling using the balance sheet
exchange rate. See further details below.
On disposal of a foreign operation the cumulative translation differences will be transferred to the income statement in the period of the disposal as
part of the gain or loss on disposal. Repayments of permanent as equity balances are not considered full or partial disposals, since the parent company
continues to own the same percentage of the subsidiary and as a result there is no recycling of exchange differences from other comprehensive income
to the Consolidated Income Statement unless the repayment occurs as part of the sale of a subsidiary.

Hyperinflationary economies
Ghana was designated as a hyperinflationary economy for the years ended 31 May 2024 and 31 May 2025. As a result, IAS 29 Financial
Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies has been applied from 1 June 2023 to 31 May 2025 in respect of the Group\u2019s Ghanaian subsidiary
undertaking. The application of IAS 29 includes:
\u2022 Adjustment to historical cost non-monetary assets and liabilities for the change in purchasing power caused by inflation from the date of
initial recognition to the current balance sheet date.
\u2022 Adjustment to the income statement for inflation during the current reporting period.
\u2022 Translation of income statement at the period-end foreign exchange rate instead of an average rate.
\u2022 Adjustment to the income statement to reflect the impact of inflation and exchange rate movement on holding monetary assets and liabilities
in local currency.
For the year ended 31 May 2026, Ghana is no longer a hyperinflationary economy and as such, no further adjustments have been made under
IAS 29. The comparative information in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 May 2025 was not re-stated as it was
presented in a stable currency (Pound Sterling).

Adjusting items
Adjusting items are material in value or related to significant one-off changes in the structure or value of the business. Certain adjusting items
may be recognised across multiple years if, for example, they are deemed to be part of a significant transformation project which would not be

providing an alternative and meaningful basis upon which to analyse underlying business performance and make year-on-year comparisons.
The same measures are used by management for planning, budgeting and reporting purposes, and for the internal assessment of operating
performance across the Group.
These alternative performance measures should be viewed as supplemental to, but not as a substitute for, measures presented in the consolidated

Taxation
Taxation on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred taxation. Taxation is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised within that statement.
Current taxation is the expected taxation payable on the taxable income for the year, using taxation rates enacted or substantively enacted at the
financial year-end date, and any adjustment to taxation payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred taxation is provided on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognised for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes, on an undiscounted basis. The amount of deferred taxation provided is based on the
expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, using taxation rates enacted or substantively
enacted at the financial year-end date.
Deferred taxation liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and interests in joint ventures,
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 Group has previously adopted the amendment to IAS 12 Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction
and as a result recognises a separate deferred taxation asset in relation to its lease liabilities and a deferred taxation liability in relation to its
right-of-use assets, even if balances qualify for offset under paragraph 74 of IAS 12.
On 23 May 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board issued International Tax Reform Pillar Two Model Rules \u2013 Amendments to IAS
12. The Group continues to apply the mandatory temporary exception to the accounting for deferred taxation arising from implementation of the
Pillar Two rules set out therein.
Deferred taxation assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current taxation assets against current taxation
liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current taxation liabilities
on a net basis.
A deferred taxation asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset
can be used. The Group maintains adequate provisions for potential liabilities that may arise from periods that remain open and not yet agreed
by tax authorities. The ultimate liability for such matters may vary from the amounts provided and is dependent upon the outcome of agreements
with relevant tax authorities. In assessing uncertain tax treatments, management is required to make judgements in determination of the
facts and circumstances in respect of the tax position taken, together with estimates of amounts that may be required to be paid in ultimate
settlement with the tax authorities. As the Group operates in a multi-national tax environment, the nature of the uncertain tax positions is often
complex and subject to change. Original estimates are refined as and when additional information becomes known.

Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment with the exception of freehold land
which is shown at cost less accumulated impairment. Except for freehold land and assets in the course of construction, the cost of property,
plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the period of the expected useful life of the asset. The annual depreciation
charge falls within the following limits:
Freehold buildings at rates not less than 2% per annum
Plant and machinery not less than 8% per annum
Fixtures, fittings and vehicles not less than 20% per annum
In the case of major projects, depreciation is provided from the date the project is brought into use.
An asset is derecognised from the Consolidated Balance Sheet when it is sold or retired and no future economic benefits are expected from
that asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement 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 when the asset is derecognised.
Residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
Property, plant and equipment is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not
be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset\u2019s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Property, plant
and equipment that has been impaired is reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each subsequent balance sheet date.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable
amount, to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the value that would have been determined had an impairment
loss not been recognised in prior years. Impairment loss or reversal of impairment is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement as

Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets comprise brands and software.
Brands
An acquired brand is only recognised on the Consolidated Balance Sheet where it is supported by a registered trademark, where brand
earnings are separately identifiable or the brand could be sold separately from the rest of the business. Brands acquired as part of a business
combination are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value at the date of acquisition. Trademarks, patents and purchased brands
are recorded at cost less accumulated impairment.
The Directors believe that acquired brands have indefinite lives because, having considered all relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to
the period over which the brands are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group. Further, the Directors have the intention and the ability
to maintain the brands. In forming this conclusion, the Directors have not taken into consideration planned future expenditure in excess of that
required to maintain the asset at that standard of performance.
In accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, as the brands have indefinite lives they are tested for impairment annually, and more frequently
where there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. The method used for impairment testing is similar to that used for goodwill whereby the
brand is allocated to a CGU based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows. The recoverable amount
of the CGU is determined as the higher of the asset\u2019s fair value less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. An impairment arises if the recoverable
amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount. Any impairment is recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount,
but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been
recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Software
Expenditure on research activities is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement as an expense as incurred. Expenditure on development
activities directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable software products and systems are capitalised if the product or systems
meet the following criteria:
\u2022 The completion of the development is technically and commercially feasible to complete.
\u2022 Adequate technical resources are sufficiently available to complete development.
\u2022 It can be demonstrated that future economic benefits are probable.
\u2022 The expenditure attributable to the development can be measured reliably.
Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products or systems. Directly attributable
costs that are capitalised as part of the software product or system include employee costs. Other development expenditures that do not meet
these criteria as well as ongoing maintenance costs are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs for software are carried at

Leases
Lessee accounting
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 and leases of low-value
assets where the Group recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The use of
these exemptions does not have a material impact.
Right-of-use assets
At commencement date, right-of-use assets are measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability,
lease payments made at or before the commencement day and any initial direct costs.
After initial recognition right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the
underlying asset. They are also assessed for impairment where indicators of impairment exist.
Lease liabilities
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, excluding those paid at the commencement date, discounted
at the rate implicit in the lease, or if that cannot be readily determined, at the Group\u2019s incremental borrowing rate specific to the term, country,
currency and start date of the lease. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise:
\u2022 Fixed lease payments (including in substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable.
\u2022 Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date.
\u2022 The exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option.
\u2022 Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate the lease.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability. Variable lease
payments that do not depend on an index or rate are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those
payments occurs.
The carrying value of the lease liability is subsequently increased to reflect interest on the lease liability and reduced by the lease payment made.
The carrying amount of lease liabilities is re-measured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments
(e.g. changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the
assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. Lease liabilities are presented as a separate line in the Consolidated Balance Sheet,
within current and non-current liabilities.
As a practical expedient, IFRS 16 Leases permits a lessee not to separate non-lease components, and instead account for any lease and
associated non-lease components as a single arrangement. The Group has not used this practical expedient.
Lessor accounting
When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease.
To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental
to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, the lease is classified as a finance lease, otherwise as an operating lease.
Operating leases
If a lease is classified as an operating lease, the Group does not derecognise the underlying asset from its balance sheet and continues to
recognise depreciation and impairment losses on the asset.
Rental income arising from operating leases is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in administrative
expense in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Finance leases
If a lease is classified as a finance lease, the Group derecognises the underlying asset from its balance sheet and recognises a lease receivable
at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease. The net investment in the lease is the present value of the lease payments and any
unguaranteed residual value of the underlying asset, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. The Group recognises finance income
over the lease term, based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease. The Group presents the
lease receivable in trade and other receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and estimated net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct
labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is calculated
based on standard costs based on normal operating conditions with price and usage variances apportioned using the periodic unit pricing
method. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing,
selling and distribution. Where net realisable value is lower than cost, provision for impairment is made which is charged to cost of sales in the
Consolidated Income Statement.

Assets held for sale
Non-current assets and groups of assets and liabilities which comprise disposal groups are classified as \u2018held for sale\u2019 when their carrying
amount will be recoverable principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. To be classified as a \u2018held for sale\u2019 asset or
disposal group, the sale must be highly probable and the assets must be available for sale immediately in their present condition. In addition, all
of the following criteria must also be met:
\u2022 management is committed to the plan to sell;
\u2022 the assets are being actively marketed;
\u2022 actions required to complete the plan should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will
be withdrawn; and
\u2022 a sale has been agreed or is expected to be concluded within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
Immediately prior to classification as held for sale, the value of the assets or groups of assets is re-measured in accordance with the
requirements of IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. Subsequently, assets and disposal groups classified as
held for sale are measured at the lower of book value or fair value less disposal costs. Assets held for sale are neither depreciated nor amortised.

Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Consolidated Balance Sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument.
Derivative financial instruments
The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as forward foreign exchange contracts and interest rate caps to manage its exposures to
risks associated with foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations. These instruments are measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of
any derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges
Derivatives designated as the hedging instruments are classified at inception of hedge relationship as cash flow hedges. There are no fair value
hedges or net investment hedges in the Group.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in the hedging reserve. Ineffective portions are recognised in profit or loss immediately.
When the hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial item such as inventory, the amount accumulated
in the hedging reserve and the cost of hedging reserve is included directly in the initial cost of the non-financial item when it is recognised.
For all other transactions, the amounts accumulated in the hedging reserve are recycled to the Consolidated Income Statement in the period
(or periods) when the hedged item affects the Consolidated Income Statement.
Financial assets At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss. The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: \u2022 Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income or profit or loss). \u2022 Those to be measured at amortised cost. The classification depends on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. The Group\u2019s financial assets are subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair value through profit or loss, depending on their classification. Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party, or (c) control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions. (a) Trade receivables Trade and other receivables are initially measured at transaction price, and subsequently at amortised cost. The amortised cost for trade and other receivables is generally equivalent to the invoiced amount less allowance for expected credit losses (ECL). The ECL is based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and the present value of all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive. The Group has elected to use the simplified approach in calculating ECL and recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date (i.e. the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of the financial instrument). The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when it is unlikely that the borrower will pay its credit obligations in full, without recourse by the Group. This includes situations where the borrower is in significant financial difficulty or has breached contractual terms. The Group has applied the practical expedient to calculate ECLs using a provision matrix based on the Group\u2019s historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date. Trade receivables are fully impaired and subsequently written off when all possible routes through which amounts can be recovered have been exhausted. The Group recognises any impairment gain or loss in the Consolidated Income Statement with a corresponding adjustment to the financial asset\u2019s carrying amount through a loss allowance account. (b) Loans to joint ventures The Group\u2019s loans to the joint venture (presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as part of the \u2018net investment in joint ventures\u2019) are measured initially at fair value and are subsequently held at amortised cost less an ECL allowance. The loans are assessed for an ECL allowance as follows: \u2022 Where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition \u2013 the Group measures ECL based on lifetime ECLs i.e. all credit losses expected from possible default events over the remaining life of the loan, irrespective of the timing of the default. \u2022 Where there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition \u2013 the Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to 12-month ECL i.e. the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default events on the loan that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. In assessing whether the credit risk has increased significantly on the loan to the joint venture since initial recognition, the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the loan at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the loan at the date of initial recognition. In making this assessment, the Group considers, in particular, the financial and operational performance of a joint venture, changes to the financial forecasts, or increases in credit risk on other receivables. Any associated loss allowance related to loans to joint ventures is recorded in administration expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. Financial liabilities and equity Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. (a) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings Interest-bearing bank loans, borrowings and overdrafts are initially recorded at fair value, net of directly related fees, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses arising on the repurchase, settlement or other cancellation of interest-bearing loans and borrowings are recognised in finance income and finance costs, respectively. (b) Trade payables Trade payables are initially recognised at fair value, normally being the invoiced amounts, and subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. (c) Trade payables under vendor financing arrangements The Group may from time to time enter into arrangements with a bank or banking partners under which the bank offers vendors the option to receive early settlement of its trade receivables. Vendors using such arrangement pay a fee to the bank. The Group does not pay any fees and does not provide any additional collateral or guarantee to the bank. Based on the Group\u2019s assessment, the liabilities under the vendor advance arrangement are closely related to operating purchase activities with no significant change in the nature or function of the liabilities. These liabilities are therefore classified as trade payables with separate disclosures in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The credit period does not exceed 12 months and are not discounted.

Consideration of climate change
In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, management has considered the impact of climate change, particularly in the context
of the risks identified in the TCFD disclosures on pages 29 to 32. There has been no material impact identified on the financial reporting
judgements and estimates. In particular, management considered the impact of climate change in respect of the following areas:
\u2022 Assessment of impairment of goodwill, other intangibles and tangible assets.
\u2022 Assessment of impairment of financial assets.
\u2022 Going concern and viability disclosures.
\u2022 Impact on useful economic lives of assets.
\u2022 Preparation of budgets and cash flow forecasts.
Given the low value of short-term (1\u20135 years) risk to these areas assessed in the TCFD report, no climate change-related impact was identified.
The viability assessment on pages 41 to 42 includes an assessment of severe but plausible scenarios, including climate change risks, with
the potential to impact future performance, but none of these are considered likely to give rise to a trading deterioration of the magnitude
indicated by the stress-testing or to threaten the viability of the business over the five-year assessment period. Management is, however, aware
of the changing nature of risks associated with climate change and regularly assesses these risks against judgements and estimates made in
preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Accounting estimates and judgements
The Group\u2019s material accounting policies under IFRS have been set by management with the approval of the Audit and Risk Committee.
The application of these policies requires management to make assumptions and estimates about future events. The resulting accounting
estimates will, by definition, differ from the actual results. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical
experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Key sources
of estimation uncertainty as described below, relate to areas more likely to be materially adjusted within the next 12 months due to the inherent
uncertainty regarding estimates and assumptions.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Pensions
The cost of defined benefit pension schemes and the present value of the pension obligation are determined using actuarial assumptions in
those valuations. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases.
Due to the complexity of the valuation, the underlying assumptions and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive
to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. Significant differences in actual experience or
significant changes in key assumptions could affect the retirement benefit surplus/obligations and the net interest expense. In determining the
discount rate, management considers the interest rates of corporate bonds with at least an \u2018AA\u2019 rating or above and having terms to maturity
approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation to be appropriate. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables
for the specific countries. Those mortality tables tend to change only at intervals in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases
and pension increases are based on expected future inflation rates for the respective countries. See note 23 for details of key estimates and
assumptions applied in valuing the pension schemes.
Current taxation
Current taxation liabilities/assets relate to the expected amount of taxation to be paid/received as a result of the operating performance of the Group\u2019s
entities. In calculating the appropriate taxation charge, assumptions and judgements are made regarding application and interpretation of local laws.
In situations where tax impacts are subject to uncertain treatment, interpretation of local rule or regulation, or otherwise remain to be agreed
with relevant tax authorities, an estimate of any resulting financial impact may be recorded in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Any such
management estimates are made in accordance with IFRS requirements, including IAS 12 Income Taxes and IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income
Tax Treatments when considering income tax and IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets in relation to non-income taxes.
Due to the uncertainty associated with such tax items, there is a possibility that on conclusion of open tax matters at a future date, the final
outcome may differ significantly from the original amounts recorded. Where the eventual taxation paid or reclaimed is different to the amounts
originally estimated, the difference will be charged or credited to the income statement in the period in which it is determined.
Included within the current taxation liability of the Group are current taxation estimates with net carrying values as at 31 May 2026 of \u00a333.7 million (2025: \u00a323.1 million), of which \u00a323.0 million (2025: \u00a321.7 million) relates to a single estimate arising due to a difference in technical standpoint between PZ Cussons plc and a tax authority on a subjective and complex piece of legislation. Due to the known difference in technical standpoint, this potential taxation liability has been provided for in full as the range of possible outcomes could be a liability up to the full value of the provided amount, however the potential future settlement remains a cash risk. The increase in year primarily relates to an increase in risk that certain matters previously recorded as contingent liabilities will crystallise. The most material item relates to an overseas court verdict that found against the Group and the possible crossover risk into later years, which will continue to be appealed by the Group. In addition to the provision items indicated above, as at 31 May 2026, the Group had further contingent taxation liabilities of \u00a38.4 million (2025: \u00a318.5 million) and contingent assets of \u00a31.5 million (2025: \u00a30.5 million). Items recorded as contingent liabilities include the interpretation of new tax laws implemented in an overseas jurisdiction, and amounts recorded as contingent assets relate to ongoing discussions with a local tax authority. Such positions have been disclosed in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. Deferred taxation assets \u2013 temporary differences Deferred taxation is provided on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognised for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes, on an undiscounted basis. The amount of deferred taxation provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the financial year-end date. Assessment of impairment of goodwill and other indefinite life assets Goodwill and brands have all arisen from business combinations and all have indefinite useful lives and, in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, are subject to annual impairment testing (which the Group carries out at the year-end date), or more frequently if there are indicators of impairment. The method used for impairment testing is to allocate assets (including goodwill and brands) to appropriate CGUs based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows, and to estimate the recoverable amounts of the CGUs as the higher of the asset\u2019s fair values less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. For the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, goodwill associated with the acquisitions of the former Beauty brands is allocated to a group of CGUs, reflecting the level at which the related acquisition synergies are generated and monitored. Value-in-use is determined using cash flow projections from approved budgets and plans which are then extrapolated based on estimated long-term growth rates applicable to the markets and geographies in which the CGUs operate. The cash flow projections are discounted based on a pre-tax weighted average cost of capital for comparable companies operating in similar markets and geographies as the Group adjusted for risks specific to the particular CGU. The assumptions used in the cash flow projections, and associated sensitivities, are described and set out in note 10. Critical areas of judgment Assessment of useful lives of acquired brands The Directors are required to assess whether the useful lives of acquired brands are finite or indefinite. Under IAS 38 Intangible Assets, an intangible asset should be regarded as having an indefinite useful life when, based on all of the relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows for the entity. Deferred tax assets \u2013 unused tax losses A deferred taxation asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be used. Deferred taxation assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used. At 31 May 2026, the Group recorded a deferred taxation asset of \u00a321.5 million (2025: \u00a326.8 million) on recognised but unused tax losses. The Group has concluded that the deferred taxation assets will be recoverable as it is probable that the related taxation benefit will be realised in the foreseeable future.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfAccountingJudgementsAndEstimatesExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:XB3CXKKKED7OMV80FY35", "period": "2025-06-01T00:00:00/2026-06-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-460": { "value": "Key sources of estimation uncertainty Pensions The cost of defined benefit pension schemes and the present value of the pension obligation are determined using actuarial assumptions in those valuations.

2. SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS
The segmental information presented in this note is consistent with management reporting provided to the Executive Committee, which is the
Chief Operating Decision-Maker (CODM). The CODM reviews the Group\u2019s internal reporting to assess performance and allocate resources. The
CODM considers the business from a geographic perspective, with Europe & the Americas, Asia Pacific and Africa being the operating segments.
In accordance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments, the Executive Committee has identified these as the reportable segments.
The CODM assesses the performance based on operating profit before adjusting items. Revenue and operating profit of the Europe & the
Americas and Asia Pacific segments arise from the sale of Personal, Home and Baby care products. Revenue and operating profit from the
Africa segment also arise from the sale of Personal, Home and Baby care products as well as Electrical products. The prices between Group
companies for intra-group sales of materials, manufactured goods, and charges for franchise fees and royalties are on an arm\u2019s length basis.
Central includes expenditure associated with the global headquarters and above market functions net of recharges to our regions. Reporting
used by the CODM to assess performance contains information about brand-specific performance. Global segmentation between the portfolio
of brands is not part of the regular internally reported financial information.

(2025: \u00a30.3 million) is included in finance income in the Consolidated Income Statement.
3 Included in share of results of joint venture in the Consolidated Income Statement.
4 Included in administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Simplification and transformation
For the years ended 31 May 2026 and 31 May 2025, costs in this category primarily relate to the strategic review of our Africa business and our
global cost optimisation programme. Such costs total \u00a33.3 million (2025: \u00a38.7 million). These costs are offset by income relating to the gain on
disposal of non-core properties. The gain on disposal of \u00a312.6 million for non-core properties is as follows:
\u00a3m
Total proceeds (cash)
27.5
Net assets disposed:
\u2013 investment properties
(12.7)
Transaction costs
(2.2)
Gain on disposal
12.6
Acquisition and disposal-related items
For the year ended 31 May 2026, the income of \u00a33.2 million is mainly driven by the profit on disposal of the investment in PZ Wilmar Limited of
\u00a34.5 million, see note 29. This is partially offset by \u00a31.3 million relating to foreign exchange losses on foreign currency forward contracts directly
attributable to the sale of PZ Wilmar Limited but not designated as formal hedges.
For the year ended 31 May 2025, the expense relates to the re-measurement of the deferred consideration for the Childs Farm acquisition
and costs incurred in relation to the sale of the Group\u2019s joint venture undertakings. In the year ended 31 May 2025, the Group made the final
settlement payment of the deferred consideration for the Childs Farm acquisition.
Net impairment (reversal)/charge
The current year net impairment reversal relates to the \u00a324.4 million impairment reversal of the Sanctuary Spa brand intangible offset by the
impairment of the Charles Worthington brand of \u00a35.1 million and impairment of the Fudge brand of \u00a37.9 million (note 10).
For the year ended 31 May 2025, the impairment charge relates to the \u00a335.3 million goodwill impairment of the Charles Worthington, Fudge,
Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez group of CGUs which was partially offset by the \u00a316.5 million impairment reversal of the Sanctuary Spa brand
intangible (note 10).
Foreign exchange gains/losses arising on loans previously designated as permanent as equity (including to joint venture)
For the year ended 31 May 2026 and 31 May 2025, this primarily relates to realised and unrealised foreign exchange (gains)/losses primarily
resulting from the Nigerian Naira foreign exchange movements on loans with the joint venture undertaking (year ended 31 May 2025 only) and
subsidiary undertakings which were de-designated from permanent as equity in the year ended 31 May 2024. The majority of these loans have
been repaid during the year ended 31 May 2026 and from 1 December 2025 onwards, the Group no longer recognised the foreign exchange
(gains)/losses on these loans as adjusting items.
The closing NGN/GBP rate at 31 May 2026 was 1,851 (2025: 2,136), and the average NGN/GBP for the current year was 1,945 (2025: 2,015).
Taxation
For the year ended 31 May 2026, the tax charge relating to adjusting items for the year was \u00a334.1 million (FY25: \u00a32.7 million). This comprises current
and deferred tax effects of the underlying adjusting items recognised during the year, together with a \u00a310.8 million movement in uncertain tax positions
relating to a local tax matter. In addition it includes associated exposures that may extend into future periods. Also it reflects a \u00a33.9 million impact
arising from changes in local tax legislation, and a \u00a35.7 million impact relating to intercompany debt relief provided following conclusion of the
Africa strategic review.

The effective tax rate in relation to continuing operations for the year is 63.3% (2025: 180.0%). Before adjusting items, the effective tax rate is
29.7% (2025: 21.9%). Primary adjustments during the year include those resulting from the disposal of the investment in PZ Wilmar Limited and
utilisation of realised FX losses in Nigeria, together with the impacts of new Nigerian tax legislation implemented from 1 January 2026 as well as
impacts due to ongoing discussions with regional tax authorities.
UK corporation tax is calculated at 25.0% (2025: 25.0%) of the estimated assessable profit for the year. Taxation for other jurisdictions is
calculated at the rates prevailing in the respective jurisdictions with further impacts due to distribution of local profits. The Group has chosen to
use the UK corporation tax rate for the reconciliation of the tax charge for the year to the profit before taxation as this is the seat for the central
management and control of the Group.

Primary reconciling differences between taxation at UK corporation tax rate and the actual taxation charge for the year include the following:
\u2022 Net increase to the amount carried in respect of uncertain tax positions \u00a39.4 million (2025: \u00a31.0 million increase) reflecting developments in
tax assessments and the recognition of potential exposures relating to both open and future periods across a number of jurisdictions.
\u2022 Effect of non-deductible expenses of \u00a310.5 million (2025: \u00a313.6 million) include items considered non-deductible across the Group\u2019s various
operating entities, including disallowances in respect of related party transactions and impairments on intangibles.
\u2022 Effect of non-taxable income of \u00a312.9 million (2025: \u00a32.9 million) include items considered non-taxable across the Group\u2019s various operating
entities including gains on disposals of property and land.
\u2022 Other taxes suffered outside the UK increased the taxation charge by \u00a311.8 million (2025: \u00a33.0 million) reflecting unrelieved withholding taxes
on dividends remitted to the UK, as well as the impact of local levies and the application of minimum top-up taxes in Nigeria.
\u2022 Differences in foreign tax rates during the year of \u00a33.8 million (2025: \u00a31.5 million) reflecting the Group profitability profile in overseas jurisdictions.
Taxation on items taken directly to equity and other comprehensive income was a credit of \u00a32.1 million (2025: \u00a30.7 million credit) primarily
relating to deferred taxation on the re-measurement of retirement and other long-term benefit obligations, together with the recycling of foreign
exchange balances associated with joint ventures.
The Group operates in a multi-national tax environment where the nature of uncertain tax positions is often complex and subject to change,
and necessarily involves a degree of estimation and judgement in respect of certain items whose tax treatment cannot be finally determined
until resolution.
On 20 June 2023, Finance (No.2) Act 2023 was substantively enacted in the UK, introducing a global minimum effective tax rate of 15%.
The legislation implements a domestic top-up tax and a multi-national top-up tax effective for accounting periods on or after 31 December 2023,
and effective for the Group from 1 June 2024. The Group has continued to apply the exception allowed by an amendment to IAS 12 Income
Taxes to recognising and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities relating to top-up income taxes. The Group is not
currently within the scope of the Pillar 2 rules.
21. DEFERRED TAX
Deferred tax is provided under the balance sheet liability method using the applicable jurisdiction tax rate at which the balances are expected to
unwind. Movements in deferred tax assets and (liabilities) during the year were:

Deferred taxation assets are recognised for tax loss carry forwards to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through future
taxable profits is probable.
At 31 May 2026, the Group recorded a deferred taxation asset of \u00a321.5 million (2025: \u00a326.8 million) on recognised but unused tax losses
primarily relating to the historical impact of the Naira devaluation and resulting unrealised FX and operating losses, together with unrelieved
Group losses in the UK. Given the high probability of ongoing profitability together with other supporting items, deferred tax assets are recognised
in full. The reduction in the year primarily reflects utilisation of losses associated with positive operating performance and settlement of Nigerian
intercompany debt balances.
A further \u00a31.8 million (2025: \u00a37.0 million) of unrecognised tax losses are not expected to expire or be disposed of, together with \u00a314.2 million
(2025: \u00a312.7 million) of unrecognised capital losses relating to the disposal of the five:am business. There is also an additional unrecognised
deferred taxation asset of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.1 million) relating to timing differences other than unrecognised tax losses. This amount relates
to property, plant and equipment differences, unused temporary differences, and accruals and provisions, and it is not probable that these
timing differences will reverse in the foreseeable future.
Other temporary differences include a liability for brands and goodwill of \u00a37.4 million (2025: \u00a37.4 million), an asset for corporate interest
restriction of \u00a39.3 million (2025: \u00a317.8 million) and an asset for share-based payments of \u00a30.4 million (2025: \u00a30.4 million). A deferred tax liability
of \u00a32.0 million (2025: \u00a31.2 million) in respect of unremitted earnings in Indonesia, Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria have been recognised on the basis
that unremitted earnings would be liable to overseas withholding taxes if anticipated to be distributed as dividends. As at 31 May 2026, the
aggregate amount of gross temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries for which deferred taxation liabilities have not
been recognised is \u00a330.9 million (2025: \u00a324.2 million) which now includes unrecognised gross temporary differences relating to Nigeria.
Following the amendments to IAS 12 in relation to Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction, the Group has
recognised a separate deferred tax asset in relation to its lease liability of \u00a33.0 million (2025: \u00a33.5 million) and a deferred tax liability in relation
to its right-of-use assets of \u00a32.7 million (2025: \u00a33.1 million). There was no impact on the statement of financial position because the balances
qualify for offset under paragraph 74 of IAS 12.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been classified as non-current. The timing of reversal of the underlying temporary differences is
dependent on future events and cannot be reliably estimated. Accordingly, the Group has not separately disclosed amounts expected to reverse
within and after 12 months.
After offsetting deferred taxation assets and liabilities where appropriate within jurisdictions (as permitted by IAS 12 Income Taxes), the net
deferred taxation liability comprises:

(b) Treasury shares
Treasury shares represent the shares in the Company held by the employee share trusts which comprise the Employee Share Option Trust
(ESOT) and the Share Incentive Plan (SIP) trust. The ESOT was established to purchase shares to satisfy awards under the Group\u2019s incentive
schemes and the SIP trust was established to purchase and hold shares on behalf of employees participating in the SIP. During the year, the
ESOT purchased no shares (2025: nil). The ESOT waives any dividends payable on shares to the extent of 0.01p per share. Further details
of these schemes are provided in note 25.

9. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share (EPS) represents the amount of earnings attributable to each ordinary share in issue. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing
the profit/(loss) after taxation attributable to owners of the Parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year,
excluding treasury shares owned by employee trusts.
For diluted EPS, the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue is adjusted to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary
shares. The Group\u2019s dilutive potential ordinary shares relate to awards granted under the Group\u2019s share incentive schemes which are described
in the share-based payments note (note 25).
The average number of shares is reconciled to the basic weighted average and diluted weighted average number of shares as set out below:

Amortisation and impairment are charged to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. Cumulative impairment of
goodwill as at 31 May 2026 was \u00a345.5 million (2025: \u00a345.5 million) and cumulative impairment of brands as at 31 May 2026 was \u00a332.9 million
(2025: \u00a344.3 million).
Software includes the Group\u2019s enterprise resource planning system (SAP), the carrying value of this asset as at 31 May 2026 is \u00a39.0 million
(2025: \u00a311.3 million), with four years of amortisation remaining.
Other than software, intangible assets comprise goodwill and brands. Goodwill and brands have all arisen from previous business combinations
and all have indefinite useful lives and, in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, are subject to annual impairment testing (which the
Group carries out at the year-end date), or more frequently if there are indicators of impairment.
The method used for impairment testing is to allocate assets to appropriate CGUs based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates
independent cash inflows, and to estimate the recoverable amounts of the CGUs as the higher of the assets\u2019 fair values less costs of disposal
and the value-in-use. Impairment testing is a two-step approach commencing with the testing of brands with an indefinite useful life. Each brand
is considered its own CGU for this purpose. The second step is to test goodwill for impairment. For the purposes of this test, goodwill acquired
is allocated to the CGUs or groups of CGUs expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. For this purpose goodwill
associated with the acquisitions of the former Beauty brands is allocated to a group of CGUs, reflecting the level at which the related acquisition
synergies are generated and monitored.
Value-in-use is determined using cash flow projections from approved budgets and plans which are then extrapolated based on estimated
long-term growth rates applicable to the markets and geographies in which the CGUs operate. The cash flow projections are discounted based
on a pre-tax weighted average cost of capital for comparable companies operating in similar markets and geographies as the Group adjusted for
risks specific to the particular CGU.
Goodwill of \u00a319.4 million (2025: \u00a319.4 million) comprises \u00a35.1 million (2025: \u00a35.1 million) in relation to the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge,
Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez, \u00a313.5 million (2025: \u00a313.5 million) in relation to the acquisitions of Childs Farm and \u00a30.8 million (2025: \u00a30.8 million) in
relation to other acquisitions. Goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez is assessed at
the Group of CGUs comprising these brands as this represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored by management.
The carrying value of goodwill and each brand is set out in the table below. For the impairment testing of brands, each brand is allocated to
a single CGU. For the impairment testing of goodwill, Childs Farm goodwill is allocated to the same CGU as the brand and, as noted above,
goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez is allocated to the group of CGUs
comprising the four brands:

In performing the impairment testing, the Group used the five-year plan ending 31 May 2031. Assumptions in the budgets and plans used for
the value-in-use cash flow projections include future revenue volume and price growth rates, associated future levels of marketing support, the
cost base of manufacture and supply, and directly associated overheads. These assumptions are based on historical trends and future market
expectations specific to each CGU and the markets and geographies in which each CGU operates.
The key assumptions applied in determining value-in-use are the long-term growth rate and the discount rate, both of which are determined with
reference to the markets and geographies in which the CGU (or group of CGUs) operates, revenue growth and gross margin. No sensitivity has
been presented for long-term growth rates as reasonably possible changes in this assumption would not result in a material adjustment to the
carrying value of the goodwill and brands.

1 CAGR refers to the compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan period.
2 Long-term growth rate for Charles Worthington and Fudge have been removed in FY26 to reflect a more cautious outlook applied in the impairment assessment.
The results of the brand impairment tests as at 31 May 2026 were as follows:
Sanctuary Spa
In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment reversal of \u00a324.4 million (2025: reversal \u00a316.5 million) relating to the Sanctuary Spa
brand, credited to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. The
recoverable amount reflected improved brand performance that exceeded prior year expectations driven by the brand's all-year-round gifting
strategy. The recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a386.6 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which when compared
to a carrying value of \u00a351.1 million (of which the brand represented \u00a351.0 million) resulted in an impairment reversal of \u00a324.4 million. Although
the recoverable amount exceeded the carrying value by more than the amount reversed, the reversal was limited to \u00a324.4 million, as the
carrying value of the brand cannot be increased above the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss previously been
recognised. The long-term growth rate and discount rate used in the value-in-use calculations were 2.0% and 12.8% respectively.
Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts
for Sanctuary Spa. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline
in the annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 3.9%,
would result in an impairment charge of \u00a34.0 million. A 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would reduce the
headroom by \u00a38.6 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would reduce the headroom by \u00a310.0 million. A reduction of 1.5% in
compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be caused by a decline of
2.6% in gross margin or an increase of 1.1% in discount rate.
St.Tropez
For the St.Tropez brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a368.5 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which is
in excess of the carrying value of \u00a363.0 million (of which the brand represented \u00a358.4 million). This is as a result of benefits delivered from the
partnership with Emerson and the refreshed strategy for the brand.
Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts
for St.Tropez. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline
in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would result in an impairment charge of \u00a33.0 million; a 200bps decline in annual revenue
growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 3.4%, would result in an
impairment charge of \u00a38.9 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would result in an impairment charge of \u00a32.5 million. A reduction
of 0.7% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be caused by a
decline of 1.3% in gross margin or an increase of 0.7% in discount rate.
Rafferty\u2019s Garden
For the Rafferty\u2019s Garden brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a335.7 million based on a value-in-use calculation,
which is in excess of the carrying value of \u00a334.9 million (of which the brand represented \u00a334.7 million).
Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts
for Rafferty\u2019s Garden. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps
decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would result in an impairment charge of \u00a36.5 million; a 200bps decline in annual
revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 1.9%, would
result in an impairment charge of \u00a37.3 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would result in an impairment charge of \u00a33.5 million.
A reduction of 0.2% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be
caused by a decline of 0.2% in gross margin or an increase of 0.2% in discount rate.
Childs Farm
For the Childs Farm brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a375.9 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which
is in excess of the carrying value of \u00a349.1 million (of which goodwill represented \u00a313.5 million and the brand represented \u00a335.5 million). This
is as a result of an increase in CAGR from 11.2% to 14.8% mainly driven by the benefits delivered from the partnership with Emerson in North
America, the continued success of which is a key assumption in the impairment assessment.
Management has determined compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumption in the forecasts for Childs Farm. Sensitivity
analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate
within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 12.8%, would reduce the headroom by
\u00a311.7 million. A reduction of 4.8% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom.
Charles Worthington In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment charge of \u00a35.1 million (2025: \u00a3nil) relating to the Charles Worthington brand, charged to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. This is as a result of a reduction in CAGR from 2.5% to nil and the reduction in the long-term growth rate from 2.0% to nil driven by the brand\u2019s recent underperformance. The recoverable amount of the applicable CGU which was based on a value-in-use calculation was determined to be \u00a34.5 million, which when compared to the carrying value of \u00a39.6 million (of which the brand represented \u00a39.6 million) resulted in an impairment charge of \u00a35.1 million. Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for Charles Worthington. Management concluded that reasonably possible changes in key assumptions would not result in a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the brand within the next 12 months. Fudge In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment charge of \u00a37.9 million (2025: \u00a3nil) relating to the Fudge brand, charged to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. This is as a result of a reduction in the long-term growth rate from 2.0% to nil driven by continued softness in brand performance. The recoverable amount of the applicable CGU which was based on a value-in-use calculation was determined to be \u00a316.8 million which when compared to the carrying value of \u00a324.7 million (of which the brand represented \u00a324.6 million) resulted in an impairment charge of \u00a37.9 million. Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for Fudge. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would increase the impairment charge by \u00a31.6 million; a 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of (3.3)%, would increase the impairment charge by \u00a32.8 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would increase the impairment charge by \u00a31.5 million. Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez group of CGUs The goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez of \u00a35.1 million reflects the remaining headroom of \u00a311.1 million on the Sanctuary Spa brand intangible and \u00a35.5 million on the St.Tropez brand intangible. Please see sensitivity analysis provided within this note in relation to those brand intangibles. To the extent that an impairment that exceeded the headroom on the brand intangibles for Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez were identified, this would lead to additional impairment of the goodwill. In the year ended 31 May 2025, there was an impairment charge of \u00a335.3 million. At 31 May 2025, the remaining goodwill of \u00a35.1 million reflected headroom of \u00a31.8 million on the Charles Worthington brand intangible,\u00a32.9 million on the Fudge brand intangible and \u00a30.4 million on the St.Tropez brand intangible. Other CGUs For the remaining CGUs, the recoverable amounts of the respective applicable CGUs, which were determined based on value-in-use calculations, exceeded the carrying values. Sensitivity analysis on the value-in-use calculations did not identify potential impairment in relation to a reasonably possible downside in the assumptions used for the projections.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfIntangibleAssetsAndGoodwillExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:XB3CXKKKED7OMV80FY35", "period": "2025-06-01T00:00:00/2026-06-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-490": { "value": "10.

1 CAGR refers to the compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan period. 2 Long-term growth rate for Charles Worthington and Fudge have been removed in FY26 to reflect a more cautious outlook applied in the impairment assessment. The results of the brand impairment tests as at 31 May 2026 were as follows: Sanctuary Spa In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment reversal of \u00a324.4 million (2025: reversal \u00a316.5 million) relating to the Sanctuary Spa brand, credited to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. The recoverable amount reflected improved brand performance that exceeded prior year expectations driven by the brand's all-year-round gifting strategy. The recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a386.6 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which when compared to a carrying value of \u00a351.1 million (of which the brand represented \u00a351.0 million) resulted in an impairment reversal of \u00a324.4 million. Although the recoverable amount exceeded the carrying value by more than the amount reversed, the reversal was limited to \u00a324.4 million, as the carrying value of the brand cannot be increased above the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss previously been recognised. The long-term growth rate and discount rate used in the value-in-use calculations were 2.0% and 12.8% respectively. Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for Sanctuary Spa. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in the annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 3.9%, would result in an impairment charge of \u00a34.0 million. A 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would reduce the headroom by \u00a38.6 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would reduce the headroom by \u00a310.0 million. A reduction of 1.5% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be caused by a decline of 2.6% in gross margin or an increase of 1.1% in discount rate. St.Tropez For the St.Tropez brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a368.5 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which is in excess of the carrying value of \u00a363.0 million (of which the brand represented \u00a358.4 million). This is as a result of benefits delivered from the partnership with Emerson and the refreshed strategy for the brand. Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for St.Tropez. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would result in an impairment charge of \u00a33.0 million; a 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 3.4%, would result in an impairment charge of \u00a38.9 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would result in an impairment charge of \u00a32.5 million. A reduction of 0.7% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be caused by a decline of 1.3% in gross margin or an increase of 0.7% in discount rate. Rafferty\u2019s Garden For the Rafferty\u2019s Garden brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a335.7 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which is in excess of the carrying value of \u00a334.9 million (of which the brand represented \u00a334.7 million). Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for Rafferty\u2019s Garden. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would result in an impairment charge of \u00a36.5 million; a 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 1.9%, would result in an impairment charge of \u00a37.3 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would result in an impairment charge of \u00a33.5 million. A reduction of 0.2% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be caused by a decline of 0.2% in gross margin or an increase of 0.2% in discount rate. Childs Farm For the Childs Farm brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a375.9 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which is in excess of the carrying value of \u00a349.1 million (of which goodwill represented \u00a313.5 million and the brand represented \u00a335.5 million). This is as a result of an increase in CAGR from 11.2% to 14.8% mainly driven by the benefits delivered from the partnership with Emerson in North America, the continued success of which is a key assumption in the impairment assessment. Management has determined compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumption in the forecasts for Childs Farm. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 12.8%, would reduce the headroom by \u00a311.7 million. A reduction of 4.8% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom.
Charles Worthington
In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment charge of \u00a35.1 million (2025: \u00a3nil) relating to the Charles Worthington brand,
charged to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. This is as
a result of a reduction in CAGR from 2.5% to nil and the reduction in the long-term growth rate from 2.0% to nil driven by the brand\u2019s recent
underperformance. The recoverable amount of the applicable CGU which was based on a value-in-use calculation was determined to
be \u00a34.5 million, which when compared to the carrying value of \u00a39.6 million (of which the brand represented \u00a39.6 million) resulted in an
impairment charge of \u00a35.1 million.
Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the
forecasts for Charles Worthington. Management concluded that reasonably possible changes in key assumptions would not result in a material
adjustment to the carrying amount of the brand within the next 12 months.
Fudge
In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment charge of \u00a37.9 million (2025: \u00a3nil) relating to the Fudge brand, charged to
administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. This is as a result of a
reduction in the long-term growth rate from 2.0% to nil driven by continued softness in brand performance. The recoverable amount of the
applicable CGU which was based on a value-in-use calculation was determined to be \u00a316.8 million which when compared to the carrying value
of \u00a324.7 million (of which the brand represented \u00a324.6 million) resulted in an impairment charge of \u00a37.9 million.
Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts
for Fudge. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in
gross margin within the five-year forecast period would increase the impairment charge by \u00a31.6 million; a 200bps decline in annual revenue
growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of (3.3)%, would increase the
impairment charge by \u00a32.8 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would increase the impairment charge by \u00a31.5 million.
Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez group of CGUs
The goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez of \u00a35.1 million reflects the remaining
headroom of \u00a311.1 million on the Sanctuary Spa brand intangible and \u00a35.5 million on the St.Tropez brand intangible. Please see sensitivity analysis
provided within this note in relation to those brand intangibles. To the extent that an impairment that exceeded the headroom on the brand
intangibles for Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez were identified, this would lead to additional impairment of the goodwill.
In the year ended 31 May 2025, there was an impairment charge of \u00a335.3 million. At 31 May 2025, the remaining goodwill of \u00a35.1 million reflected
headroom of \u00a31.8 million on the Charles Worthington brand intangible,\u00a32.9 million on the Fudge brand intangible and \u00a30.4 million on the
St.Tropez brand intangible.
Other CGUs
For the remaining CGUs, the recoverable amounts of the respective applicable CGUs, which were determined based on value-in-use calculations,
exceeded the carrying values. Sensitivity analysis on the value-in-use calculations did not identify potential impairment in relation to a
reasonably possible downside in the assumptions used for the projections.

Amortisation and impairment are charged to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. Cumulative impairment of goodwill as at 31 May 2026 was \u00a345.5 million (2025: \u00a345.5 million) and cumulative impairment of brands as at 31 May 2026 was \u00a332.9 million (2025: \u00a344.3 million). Software includes the Group\u2019s enterprise resource planning system (SAP), the carrying value of this asset as at 31 May 2026 is \u00a39.0 million (2025: \u00a311.3 million), with four years of amortisation remaining. Other than software, intangible assets comprise goodwill and brands. Goodwill and brands have all arisen from previous business combinations and all have indefinite useful lives and, in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, are subject to annual impairment testing (which the Group carries out at the year-end date), or more frequently if there are indicators of impairment. The method used for impairment testing is to allocate assets to appropriate CGUs based on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates independent cash inflows, and to estimate the recoverable amounts of the CGUs as the higher of the assets\u2019 fair values less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. Impairment testing is a two-step approach commencing with the testing of brands with an indefinite useful life. Each brand is considered its own CGU for this purpose. The second step is to test goodwill for impairment. For the purposes of this test, goodwill acquired is allocated to the CGUs or groups of CGUs expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. For this purpose goodwill associated with the acquisitions of the former Beauty brands is allocated to a group of CGUs, reflecting the level at which the related acquisition synergies are generated and monitored. Value-in-use is determined using cash flow projections from approved budgets and plans which are then extrapolated based on estimated long-term growth rates applicable to the markets and geographies in which the CGUs operate. The cash flow projections are discounted based on a pre-tax weighted average cost of capital for comparable companies operating in similar markets and geographies as the Group adjusted for risks specific to the particular CGU. Goodwill of \u00a319.4 million (2025: \u00a319.4 million) comprises \u00a35.1 million (2025: \u00a35.1 million) in relation to the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez, \u00a313.5 million (2025: \u00a313.5 million) in relation to the acquisitions of Childs Farm and \u00a30.8 million (2025: \u00a30.8 million) in relation to other acquisitions. Goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez is assessed at the Group of CGUs comprising these brands as this represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored by management. The carrying value of goodwill and each brand is set out in the table below. For the impairment testing of brands, each brand is allocated to a single CGU. For the impairment testing of goodwill, Childs Farm goodwill is allocated to the same CGU as the brand and, as noted above, goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez is allocated to the group of CGUs comprising the four brands:

In performing the impairment testing, the Group used the five-year plan ending 31 May 2031. Assumptions in the budgets and plans used for the value-in-use cash flow projections include future revenue volume and price growth rates, associated future levels of marketing support, the cost base of manufacture and supply, and directly associated overheads. These assumptions are based on historical trends and future market expectations specific to each CGU and the markets and geographies in which each CGU operates. The key assumptions applied in determining value-in-use are the long-term growth rate and the discount rate, both of which are determined with reference to the markets and geographies in which the CGU (or group of CGUs) operates, revenue growth and gross margin. No sensitivity has been presented for long-term growth rates as reasonably possible changes in this assumption would not result in a material adjustment to the carrying value of the goodwill and brands. The compound annual growth rates, long-term growth rates and discount rates applied in the value-in-use calculations used in impairment tests were:

1 CAGR refers to the compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan period. 2 Long-term growth rate for Charles Worthington and Fudge have been removed in FY26 to reflect a more cautious outlook applied in the impairment assessment. The results of the brand impairment tests as at 31 May 2026 were as follows: Sanctuary Spa In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment reversal of \u00a324.4 million (2025: reversal \u00a316.5 million) relating to the Sanctuary Spa brand, credited to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. The recoverable amount reflected improved brand performance that exceeded prior year expectations driven by the brand's all-year-round gifting strategy. The recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a386.6 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which when compared to a carrying value of \u00a351.1 million (of which the brand represented \u00a351.0 million) resulted in an impairment reversal of \u00a324.4 million. Although the recoverable amount exceeded the carrying value by more than the amount reversed, the reversal was limited to \u00a324.4 million, as the carrying value of the brand cannot be increased above the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss previously been recognised. The long-term growth rate and discount rate used in the value-in-use calculations were 2.0% and 12.8% respectively. Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for Sanctuary Spa. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in the annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 3.9%, would result in an impairment charge of \u00a34.0 million. A 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would reduce the headroom by \u00a38.6 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would reduce the headroom by \u00a310.0 million. A reduction of 1.5% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be caused by a decline of 2.6% in gross margin or an increase of 1.1% in discount rate. St.Tropez For the St.Tropez brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a368.5 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which is in excess of the carrying value of \u00a363.0 million (of which the brand represented \u00a358.4 million). This is as a result of benefits delivered from the partnership with Emerson and the refreshed strategy for the brand. Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for St.Tropez. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would result in an impairment charge of \u00a33.0 million; a 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 3.4%, would result in an impairment charge of \u00a38.9 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would result in an impairment charge of \u00a32.5 million. A reduction of 0.7% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be caused by a decline of 1.3% in gross margin or an increase of 0.7% in discount rate. Rafferty\u2019s Garden For the Rafferty\u2019s Garden brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a335.7 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which is in excess of the carrying value of \u00a334.9 million (of which the brand represented \u00a334.7 million). Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for Rafferty\u2019s Garden. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would result in an impairment charge of \u00a36.5 million; a 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 1.9%, would result in an impairment charge of \u00a37.3 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would result in an impairment charge of \u00a33.5 million. A reduction of 0.2% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. The same impact would be caused by a decline of 0.2% in gross margin or an increase of 0.2% in discount rate. Childs Farm For the Childs Farm brand, the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined to be \u00a375.9 million based on a value-in-use calculation, which is in excess of the carrying value of \u00a349.1 million (of which goodwill represented \u00a313.5 million and the brand represented \u00a335.5 million). This is as a result of an increase in CAGR from 11.2% to 14.8% mainly driven by the benefits delivered from the partnership with Emerson in North America, the continued success of which is a key assumption in the impairment assessment. Management has determined compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumption in the forecasts for Childs Farm. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of 12.8%, would reduce the headroom by \u00a311.7 million. A reduction of 4.8% in compound annual revenue growth rate over the five-year plan would result in \u00a3nil headroom. Charles Worthington In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment charge of \u00a35.1 million (2025: \u00a3nil) relating to the Charles Worthington brand, charged to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. This is as a result of a reduction in CAGR from 2.5% to nil and the reduction in the long-term growth rate from 2.0% to nil driven by the brand\u2019s recent underperformance. The recoverable amount of the applicable CGU which was based on a value-in-use calculation was determined to be \u00a34.5 million, which when compared to the carrying value of \u00a39.6 million (of which the brand represented \u00a39.6 million) resulted in an impairment charge of \u00a35.1 million. Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for Charles Worthington. Management concluded that reasonably possible changes in key assumptions would not result in a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the brand within the next 12 months. Fudge In the year ended 31 May 2026, there was an impairment charge of \u00a37.9 million (2025: \u00a3nil) relating to the Fudge brand, charged to administrative expense in the Consolidated Income Statement and included in the Europe & the Americas segment. This is as a result of a reduction in the long-term growth rate from 2.0% to nil driven by continued softness in brand performance. The recoverable amount of the applicable CGU which was based on a value-in-use calculation was determined to be \u00a316.8 million which when compared to the carrying value of \u00a324.7 million (of which the brand represented \u00a324.6 million) resulted in an impairment charge of \u00a37.9 million. Management has determined gross margin, discount rate and compound annual revenue growth rate to be the key assumptions in the forecasts for Fudge. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out in the year ended 31 May 2026 and a reasonably possible change of 200bps decline in gross margin within the five-year forecast period would increase the impairment charge by \u00a31.6 million; a 200bps decline in annual revenue growth rate within the five-year forecast period, which results in a five-year compound annual revenue growth rate of (3.3)%, would increase the impairment charge by \u00a32.8 million and a 100bps increase in the discount rate would increase the impairment charge by \u00a31.5 million. Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez group of CGUs The goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Charles Worthington, Fudge, Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez of \u00a35.1 million reflects the remaining headroom of \u00a311.1 million on the Sanctuary Spa brand intangible and \u00a35.5 million on the St.Tropez brand intangible. Please see sensitivity analysis provided within this note in relation to those brand intangibles. To the extent that an impairment that exceeded the headroom on the brand intangibles for Sanctuary Spa and St.Tropez were identified, this would lead to additional impairment of the goodwill. In the year ended 31 May 2025, there was an impairment charge of \u00a335.3 million.

29. DISPOSALS
On 18 June 2025, as part of the strategic review of its Africa operations, the Group announced the sale of its 50% investment in a Nigerian
palm oil joint venture undertaking, PZ Wilmar Limited to Wilmar Africa Resources Pte Ltd, the Group\u2019s joint venture partner. The investment in
PZ Wilmar Limited was classified as an asset held for sale at 31 May 2025. Following its classification as an asset held for sale, the share of
results of the joint venture that have been recognised in the year ended 31 May 2026 is \u00a3nil (2025: \u00a35.6 million).
Cash receipts in respect of the sale include the sale of the Group\u2019s shareholding, sale of land interests and repayment of receivables due from
PZ Wilmar Limited are further described below and total \u00a351.2 million ($68.1 million). Cash proceeds have been received in both Naira and USD
and converted to GBP to align with the Group\u2019s functional currency.
On 14 November 2025, the Group disposed of its 50% shareholding in PZ Wilmar Limited for gross proceeds of \u00a311.8 million ($15.4 million) with
cash received during the year ended 31 May 2026.
Following the sale of its 50% shareholding in PZ Wilmar Limited, the Group disposed of associated land interests for consideration of \u00a312.8 million
($17.1 million). At 31 May 2026, cash of \u00a39.4 million ($12.4 million) had been received with the remaining \u00a33.4 million ($4.7 million) received during
July 2026. The land, right-of-use asset and associated lease liability were all held at a book value of \u00a3nil.
As part of the disposal, a cumulative currency translation adjustment of \u00a313.6 million was recycled from equity to the Consolidated Income
Statement and recognised within the loss on disposal of joint venture undertakings.
Transaction costs totalling \u00a33.3 million primarily relate to legal and advisory costs of which costs incurred in the year ended 31 May 2026 were
\u00a31.9 million (2025: \u00a31.4 million).
The disposal of the shareholding and the assets resulted in a gain on disposal before tax of \u00a34.5 million in the year ended 31 May 2026,
recognised within adjusting items in the Consolidated Income Statement.
The breakdown of the gain before tax on disposal of PZ Wilmar Limited at 31 May 2026, is as follows:

Deferred taxation assets are recognised for tax loss carry forwards to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable. At 31 May 2026, the Group recorded a deferred taxation asset of \u00a321.5 million (2025: \u00a326.8 million) on recognised but unused tax losses primarily relating to the historical impact of the Naira devaluation and resulting unrealised FX and operating losses, together with unrelieved Group losses in the UK. Given the high probability of ongoing profitability together with other supporting items, deferred tax assets are recognised in full. The reduction in the year primarily reflects utilisation of losses associated with positive operating performance and settlement of Nigerian intercompany debt balances. A further \u00a31.8 million (2025: \u00a37.0 million) of unrecognised tax losses are not expected to expire or be disposed of, together with \u00a314.2 million (2025: \u00a312.7 million) of unrecognised capital losses relating to the disposal of the five:am business. There is also an additional unrecognised deferred taxation asset of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.1 million) relating to timing differences other than unrecognised tax losses. This amount relates to property, plant and equipment differences, unused temporary differences, and accruals and provisions, and it is not probable that these timing differences will reverse in the foreseeable future. Other temporary differences include a liability for brands and goodwill of \u00a37.4 million (2025: \u00a37.4 million), an asset for corporate interest restriction of \u00a39.3 million (2025: \u00a317.8 million) and an asset for share-based payments of \u00a30.4 million (2025: \u00a30.4 million). A deferred tax liability of \u00a32.0 million (2025: \u00a31.2 million) in respect of unremitted earnings in Indonesia, Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria have been recognised on the basis that unremitted earnings would be liable to overseas withholding taxes if anticipated to be distributed as dividends. As at 31 May 2026, the aggregate amount of gross temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries for which deferred taxation liabilities have not been recognised is \u00a330.9 million (2025: \u00a324.2 million) which now includes unrecognised gross temporary differences relating to Nigeria. Following the amendments to IAS 12 in relation to Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction, the Group has recognised a separate deferred tax asset in relation to its lease liability of \u00a33.0 million (2025: \u00a33.5 million) and a deferred tax liability in relation to its right-of-use assets of \u00a32.7 million (2025: \u00a33.1 million). There was no impact on the statement of financial position because the balances qualify for offset under paragraph 74 of IAS 12. Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been classified as non-current. The timing of reversal of the underlying temporary differences is dependent on future events and cannot be reliably estimated. Accordingly, the Group has not separately disclosed amounts expected to reverse within and after 12 months. After offsetting deferred taxation assets and liabilities where appropriate within jurisdictions (as permitted by IAS 12 Income Taxes), the net deferred taxation liability comprises:

Borrowings are amounts drawn under both committed and uncommitted borrowing facilities. At 31 May 2026, the Group has a \u00a3270.0 million
(2025: \u00a3325.0 million) committed credit facility which is available for general corporate purposes. The credit facility incorporates both a GBP
Term Loan, of up to \u00a370.0 million, originally \u00a3125 million, with the balance as a multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) structure (together
the \u2018Facilities\u2019). Entered into in November 2022, the Term Loan is a two-year facility and the RCF a four-year facility, with both facilities retaining
two, one-year extension options. The first option for both RCF and Term Loan was executed in October 2023, and the second Term Loan
extension was executed in March 2025. Following this extension, the Term Loan reduced to \u00a370.0 million and as at 31 May 2026, was due to
mature on 8 November 2026. Drawings under the Facilities incur a margin of 1.35\u20132.05% above underlying reference rates, and dependent on
the Group net leverage.
Borrowings as at 31 May 2026, are presented net of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.4 million) of unamortised financing fees. Arrangement fees of
\u00a30.8 million (2025: \u00a31.0 million) have been charged to the income statement in the year ended 31 May 2026. Borrowings comprise current
borrowings of \u00a370.0 million (2025: \u00a3125.0 million) of Term Loans which are denominated in GBP at an interest rate of 5.20% (2025: 6.18%),
and \u00a37.0 million (2025: \u00a332.5 million) of non-current borrowings under the RCF which are denominated in GBP at an interest rate of 5.18%
(2025: 6.04\u20136.10%). At 31 May 2026, all borrowings were from committed facilities.
In addition, the Group retains other unsecured and uncommitted facilities primarily used for trade-related activities in Nigeria where ordinary
trading activities are required to be supported by letters of credit (or similar). As at 31 May 2026, such facilities amounted to \u00a3118.1 million
(2025: \u00a3122.1 million) of which \u00a330.5 million, or 26%, were used (2025: \u00a333.7 million or 28%). As at the reporting date, there were no bank
overdrafts (2025: \u00a3nil).
Subsequent to 31 May 2026, on 9 June 2026, the Group entered into a new four-year \u00a3225.0 million Revolving Credit Facility maturing in June
2030, with substantially similar terms to the previous facilities including two, one-year extension options. Specifically, drawings under the
Facilities incur a margin of 1.85\u20132.55% above underlying reference rates, and dependent on the Group net leverage.
The previous facilities were fully repaid on 10 June 2026, and an equivalent amount was drawn under the new facility on the same date. As the
refinancing occurred subsequent to 31 May 2026, it has not affected the classification or measurement of borrowings at that date.

(b) Risk management
The Group\u2019s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk (arising from movements in foreign currency exchange rates,
commodity prices and interest rates), credit risk and liquidity risk.
Overall risk management is led by senior management and executed according to Group policy with the intention to minimise adverse impacts on
the Group\u2019s financial performance through the execution of agreed risk management strategies. Management of these risks, along with the day-to-
day management of treasury activities, is performed by the Group Treasury function as defined within the Board-approved policy framework.
Where appropriate, the Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures. The use of financial derivatives and the
management of all financial risks is governed by the Group Treasury policy as approved by the Board of Directors. The Group does not enter into
any financial derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. All hedging activity is carried out by the Group Treasury function which
hedges financial risks according to forecasts provided by the Group\u2019s subsidiary undertakings.
The Group also enters into contracts with suppliers for its principal raw material requirements and associated input costs. Commodity and
associated input and manufacturing costs such as energy are part of the Group\u2019s normal purchasing activities.
A. Market risk
The Group\u2019s principal market risks are in relation to foreign currency exchange rates, the prices of certain commodities and interest
rates. In managing market risks, the Group aims to minimise the impact of short-term fluctuations on the Group\u2019s financial performance.
However, over the longer term, permanent changes in market rates will have an impact on consolidated results.
(i) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the carrying value of Group assets, liabilities or future cash flows will fluctuate due to changes in foreign
currency exchange rates. The Group is exposed to foreign currency exchange translation and transaction risks as follows:
\u2022 Foreign currency exchange translation risks arise due to the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies
other than the functional currency of the subsidiary into functional currency, with the foreign exchange gain/(loss) recorded in the income
statement. Further translation differences arise on the translation of net assets of its non-GBP functional currency subsidiary undertakings
into GBP being the Group\u2019s presentation currency, with the foreign exchange gain/(loss) recorded in other comprehensive income.
\u2022 Foreign currency exchange transaction risk occurs due to changes in the value of cash flows in a currency other than the functional currency
of the subsidiary undertaking.
The most significant foreign exchange transaction risk exposures for the Group are the purchase of inventories (predominantly raw materials)
and services denominated in USD and Euros. Group policy is to reduce this risk where possible, by using forward foreign exchange derivative
contracts as hedging instruments that are typically designated as cash flow hedges. In these cases, the Group negotiates the terms of the
derivative to match the critical terms of the hedged item normally including covering the period from initial forecasting of the hedged item
purchase commitment to the point of settlement.
Hedge accounting is typically applied to remove any timing mismatch between the hedging instrument and hedged item, with the effective
portion of the change in fair value of the hedging instrument initially accounted for in the hedging reserve through other comprehensive income. If
the firm commitment or forecast transaction that is the subject of a cash flow hedge results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or liability,
then, at the time the asset or liability is recognised, the associated gains or losses on the derivative that had previously been recognised in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in the hedging reserve are removed directly from equity and included in the initial measurement of the
asset or liability. If the hedged item is transaction-related, the foreign currency \u2018basis spread\u2019 is reclassified to profit or loss when the hedged item
affects profit or loss. Those reclassified amounts are recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement in the same line as the hedged item.
Hedge ineffectiveness may arise from items including changes in forecast transactions, misalignment in critical terms, or if credit dominates the
relationship between hedged item and hedging instrument. Where there is ineffectiveness and hedge accounting criteria are not met, the change
in the fair value of the derivative is accounted for through profit or loss. There was no ineffectiveness during the reporting period in relation to the
use of forward foreign exchange contracts.
The notional amounts of forward foreign exchange contracts outstanding as at the reporting date, along with the weighted average hedge rates of
these contracts and average spot rates for the reporting period, are as follows:

As at 31 May 2026, the aggregate net amount of fair value movements of forward foreign exchange contracts currently deferred in the cash flow
hedging reserve was a loss of \u00a30.8 million (2025: \u00a30.2 million loss). It is anticipated that the purchases of the hedged items that these forward
exchange contracts were entered into for, will take place during the next financial year and these will be sold within 12 months of purchase.
The movement in the hedging reserve during the year was as follows:

The aggregate amount under forward foreign exchange contracts taken directly to profit or loss was a loss of \u00a31.6 million (2025: \u00a30.8 million gain).
The majority of the Group\u2019s monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in the functional currency of the relevant subsidiary.
The aggregate net foreign exchange gains recognised in profit or loss were \u00a33.5 million (2025: \u00a37.8 million loss) and are primarily as a result of
stabilisation of the Nigerian Naira offset by losses on the revaluation of foreign currency (USD) liabilities.
At 31 May 2026, the Group held cash and cash equivalents of \u00a351.9m (2025: \u00a345.1m). The principal currency exposures within cash and cash
equivalents were: Nigerian Naira \u00a318.5m (2025: \u00a313.1m), US Dollar \u00a311.5m (2025: \u00a310.8m), Thai Baht \u00a38.6m (2025: \u00a34.9m), Pound Sterling
\u00a34.7m (2025: \u00a34.1m), Ghanaian Cedi \u00a32.7m (2025: \u00a33.0m) and other currencies \u00a35.9m (2025: \u00a39.2m).
At 31 May 2026, \u00a324.5 million (2025: \u00a320.2 million) of the cash and cash equivalents were held by the Group\u2019s Nigerian subsidiaries.
The Group\u2019s exposure to foreign currency changes for currencies other than US Dollar and Nigerian Naira is not material. A similar but opposite
impact would be felt on both profit or loss and other comprehensive income if the Group\u2019s main transactional currencies weakened against local
functional currencies by a similar amount.
The following sensitivity analysis illustrates the impact of a 10.0% strengthening of the Group\u2019s transactional currencies against local functional
currencies, with all other variables held constant.
The impact on the Group\u2019s profit before taxation is due to foreign exchange (losses)/gains arising on the revaluation of monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the subsidiary.
The impact on the Group\u2019s other comprehensive income is due to changes in the fair value of forward exchange contracts designated as cash
flow hedges (note 1).

The table above shows the foreign currency risk in relation to non-functional currency financial instruments in subsidiaries\u2019 financial statements
at the balance sheet date.
In addition, the Group is also exposed to foreign currency risk on the translation of overseas subsidiaries\u2019 results into GBP for the Consolidated
Financial Statements through the use of the average rate for the Income Statement and the closing rate for net assets. The impact on the Group\u2019s
profit before tax and total equity if the applicable rate used to translate the results of the Group\u2019s principal foreign operations into GBP were
adjusted to show a 10.0% strengthening of Sterling is shown below. A similar but opposite impact would be felt if Sterling weakened against the
other currencies by a similar percentage.

(ii) Commodity pricing risk
Commodity risk, is the risk that changes in underlying raw material prices can have an adverse impact on the Group\u2019s financial performance.
The Group\u2019s policy is to minimise the pricing volatility accompanied by unfavourable changes in commodity prices by entering into fixed price
supplier contracts in line with its commercial strategy.
The Group does not enter into any commodity derivatives.
(iii) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk, is the risk that a change in interest rates will have an adverse impact on the Group\u2019s financial performance.
The Group\u2019s main interest rate risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and borrowings.
To manage interest rate risk, the Group manages its proportion of fixed to floating rate borrowings, primarily through issuing fixed and floating rate
borrowings, and by utilising interest rate swaps, where appropriate.
The following table sets out the sensitivity to reasonably possible changes in the Nigerian interest rates on cash and cash equivalents held by the
Group\u2019s Nigerian operations, and reasonably possible changes in SONIA (Sterling Overnight Index Average) interest rates on that portion of loans
and borrowings at 31 May 2026 (see note 18). With all other variables held constant, the Group\u2019s profit before taxation is affected as follows:

B. Credit risk
The Group is exposed to counterparty credit risk from its financing and investing activities with banks and financial institutions, including cash
deposits, the use of derivatives and other financial instruments and from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables). The maximum
exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount of each class of financial assets.
Financing and investing activities
The Group maintains a policy on financial counterparty credit risk exposures that limits the maximum exposure on the investment of surplus
cash and use of derivative instruments with reference to a minimum credit rating as maintained by Standard & Poor\u2019s (S&P), Moody\u2019s or Fitch,
with further limits established for levels of exposure at various ratings levels. The level of exposure and the creditworthiness of the Group\u2019s
banking counterparties are regularly reviewed to ensure compliance with this policy. Cash held with lower rated banks reflects the impact of
perceived sovereign ceilings operating within those countries.
Cash and cash equivalents and net financial derivatives by counterparty credit rating at the end of the reporting period is as follows (ratings per

All financial derivative contracts are held in financial institutions with credit ratings of at least A-.
The amounts classified B+ to B- counterparty credit rating relate to cash and cash equivalents held predominantly in Nigeria where the sovereign
credit rating is B thereby limiting the rating of banks incorporated within the country.
There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group arising from the use of derivatives or other financial instruments.
Trade receivables
The Group trades only with creditworthy third parties. Under the Group policy, customers are subject to credit verification procedures to
establish appropriate credit terms and trade receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis.
An allowance for loss is estimated by management based on the expected credit loss model approach. The creation and release of provisions for
receivables is charged/credited to administrative expenses in the Consolidated Income Statement. Receivables are written off when all possible
routes through which amounts can be recovered have been exhausted.
Trade receivables consist of a broad cross-section of the international customer base for which there is no significant history of default. The
credit risk of customers is assessed taking into account the local market environment, customers\u2019 financial positions, past experiences and
other relevant factors. Individual customer credit limits are imposed based on these factors, and payment terms are generally 30-45 days, with
a range from seven to 120 days which reflects the differing nature of trading in the Group\u2019s geographical segments.
No other receivables are deemed to be impaired.

C. Liquidity risk
The Group is exposed to the risk that it is unable to meet its financial commitments as they fall due. Under the terms of the \u00a3270.0 million committed
credit facility, the Group must meet certain financial covenants. The covenants are described in the capital risk management section below.
The Group manages liquidity risk through the Group Treasury function, with cash flow forecasts prepared and reviewed on a monthly basis.
In addition, longer-term cash flow forecasts of up to 12 months are prepared as part of the Group\u2019s monthly forecasting and periodic budget cycles,
with performance against free cash flow and net working capital targets monitored each month.
The Group\u2019s net debt level can vary from month to month depending on seasonal trading patterns including the holding of inventory, timing of
receipts from customers and payments to suppliers, and the timing of any capital and restructuring projects.
Set out below is the maturity profile of the Group\u2019s financial liabilities which is based on the contractual undiscounted cash flows prepared using
forward interest rates where applicable, showing items at the earliest date on which the liability could be required to be paid (for borrowings under
committed facilities, the maturity is based on the maturity of the facility). The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that
interest flows based on floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rates at the reporting date. Derivatives are presented on a
notional basis in GBP.

Capital risk management The objective of the Group when considering total capital is to protect the value of capital investments and to generate returns on shareholder funds. Total capital is defined as including bank borrowings and equity, including, when applicable, derivatives used for the purposes of hedging currency and interest exposure on the borrowings, but excluding the cash flow hedging reserve. In support of its objectives, the Group may undertake actions to adjust its capital structure. Actions may include, but are not limited to, raising or prepaying of borrowings together with related derivative instruments, issuance of additional share capital, payment of dividends or share repurchase programmes. The Group\u2019s \u00a3270.0 million credit facility is subject to financial covenants. The principal covenants on the facility are a leverage ratio of \u22643.0x and interest cover of \u22654.0x which are measured on a rolling 12-month basis at half-year and year-end. The Group considers net debt to be an important performance measure as it forms the basis of the leverage ratio (defined as Net Debt to adjusted EBITDA) in the facility agreement. As at 31 May 2026, the Group\u2019s net debt including lease liabilities was \u00a337.9 million (2025: \u00a3126.9 million), net of \u00a351.9 million (2025: \u00a345.1 million) cash and cash equivalents as described in note 18. Interest cover is defined in the facility agreements as the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to net finance (expense)/income. The committed credit facility also includes other customary provisions relating to events of default, including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, misrepresentations, breach of covenants, creditor process, cross-default to other indebtedness of the borrowers and its subsidiaries. Subsequent to 31 May 2026, on 9 June 2026, the Group entered into a new four-year \u00a3225.0 million Revolving Credit Facility maturing in June 2030, with substantially similar terms to the previous facilities including two, one-year extension options. During the year, and as at the reporting date, the Group was in compliance with all financial and other covenants. Fair values Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Group uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Group uses certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs may be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: \u2022 Level 1: Derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. \u2022 Level 2: Derived from observable inputs other than Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data. \u2022 Level 3: Derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). This may include pricing models, discounted cash flow or similar methodologies as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgement or estimation. There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 and 3 during the current or prior year.
At the end of the reporting period, the Group held the following financial assets and liabilities at fair value:
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies and assumptions used for estimating the fair values:
\u2022 Derivative financial instruments \u2013 Derivative financial instruments comprise forward foreign exchange contracts. Fair value is calculated using
observable market data where it is available, including spot rates and observable forward points, as discounted to reflect the time value of
money. Counterparty credit is monitored. No adjustment to the fair value for credit risk is made due to materiality.
For the financial assets and liabilities not held at fair value, there was no material difference between their carrying values and their fair values,
except for non-current borrowings which are presented net of unamortised issuance costs of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.8 million).

1 Excludes other taxation and social security. Borrowings are amounts drawn under both committed and uncommitted borrowing facilities. At 31 May 2026, the Group has a \u00a3270.0 million (2025: \u00a3325.0 million) committed credit facility which is available for general corporate purposes. The credit facility incorporates both a GBP Term Loan, of up to \u00a370.0 million, originally \u00a3125 million, with the balance as a multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) structure (together the \u2018Facilities\u2019). Entered into in November 2022, the Term Loan is a two-year facility and the RCF a four-year facility, with both facilities retaining two, one-year extension options. The first option for both RCF and Term Loan was executed in October 2023, and the second Term Loan extension was executed in March 2025. Following this extension, the Term Loan reduced to \u00a370.0 million and as at 31 May 2026, was due to mature on 8 November 2026. Drawings under the Facilities incur a margin of 1.35\u20132.05% above underlying reference rates, and dependent on the Group net leverage. Borrowings as at 31 May 2026, are presented net of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.4 million) of unamortised financing fees. Arrangement fees of \u00a30.8 million (2025: \u00a31.0 million) have been charged to the income statement in the year ended 31 May 2026. Borrowings comprise current borrowings of \u00a370.0 million (2025: \u00a3125.0 million) of Term Loans which are denominated in GBP at an interest rate of 5.20% (2025: 6.18%), and \u00a37.0 million (2025: \u00a332.5 million) of non-current borrowings under the RCF which are denominated in GBP at an interest rate of 5.18% (2025: 6.04\u20136.10%). At 31 May 2026, all borrowings were from committed facilities. In addition, the Group retains other unsecured and uncommitted facilities primarily used for trade-related activities in Nigeria where ordinary trading activities are required to be supported by letters of credit (or similar). As at 31 May 2026, such facilities amounted to \u00a3118.1 million (2025: \u00a3122.1 million) of which \u00a330.5 million, or 26%, were used (2025: \u00a333.7 million or 28%). As at the reporting date, there were no bank overdrafts (2025: \u00a3nil). Subsequent to 31 May 2026, on 9 June 2026, the Group entered into a new four-year \u00a3225.0 million Revolving Credit Facility maturing in June 2030, with substantially similar terms to the previous facilities including two, one-year extension options. Specifically, drawings under the Facilities incur a margin of 1.85\u20132.55% above underlying reference rates, and dependent on the Group net leverage. The previous facilities were fully repaid on 10 June 2026, and an equivalent amount was drawn under the new facility on the same date. As the refinancing occurred subsequent to 31 May 2026, it has not affected the classification or measurement of borrowings at that date.

(b) Risk management The Group\u2019s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk (arising from movements in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates), credit risk and liquidity risk. Overall risk management is led by senior management and executed according to Group policy with the intention to minimise adverse impacts on the Group\u2019s financial performance through the execution of agreed risk management strategies. Management of these risks, along with the day-to- day management of treasury activities, is performed by the Group Treasury function as defined within the Board-approved policy framework. Where appropriate, the Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures. The use of financial derivatives and the management of all financial risks is governed by the Group Treasury policy as approved by the Board of Directors. The Group does not enter into any financial derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. All hedging activity is carried out by the Group Treasury function which hedges financial risks according to forecasts provided by the Group\u2019s subsidiary undertakings. The Group also enters into contracts with suppliers for its principal raw material requirements and associated input costs. Commodity and associated input and manufacturing costs such as energy are part of the Group\u2019s normal purchasing activities. A. Market risk The Group\u2019s principal market risks are in relation to foreign currency exchange rates, the prices of certain commodities and interest rates. In managing market risks, the Group aims to minimise the impact of short-term fluctuations on the Group\u2019s financial performance. However, over the longer term, permanent changes in market rates will have an impact on consolidated results. (i) Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk is the risk that the carrying value of Group assets, liabilities or future cash flows will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Group is exposed to foreign currency exchange translation and transaction risks as follows: \u2022 Foreign currency exchange translation risks arise due to the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary into functional currency, with the foreign exchange gain/(loss) recorded in the income statement. Further translation differences arise on the translation of net assets of its non-GBP functional currency subsidiary undertakings into GBP being the Group\u2019s presentation currency, with the foreign exchange gain/(loss) recorded in other comprehensive income. \u2022 Foreign currency exchange transaction risk occurs due to changes in the value of cash flows in a currency other than the functional currency of the subsidiary undertaking. The most significant foreign exchange transaction risk exposures for the Group are the purchase of inventories (predominantly raw materials) and services denominated in USD and Euros. Group policy is to reduce this risk where possible, by using forward foreign exchange derivative contracts as hedging instruments that are typically designated as cash flow hedges. In these cases, the Group negotiates the terms of the derivative to match the critical terms of the hedged item normally including covering the period from initial forecasting of the hedged item purchase commitment to the point of settlement. Hedge accounting is typically applied to remove any timing mismatch between the hedging instrument and hedged item, with the effective portion of the change in fair value of the hedging instrument initially accounted for in the hedging reserve through other comprehensive income. If the firm commitment or forecast transaction that is the subject of a cash flow hedge results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or liability, then, at the time the asset or liability is recognised, the associated gains or losses on the derivative that had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the hedging reserve are removed directly from equity and included in the initial measurement of the asset or liability. If the hedged item is transaction-related, the foreign currency \u2018basis spread\u2019 is reclassified to profit or loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss. Those reclassified amounts are recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement in the same line as the hedged item. Hedge ineffectiveness may arise from items including changes in forecast transactions, misalignment in critical terms, or if credit dominates the relationship between hedged item and hedging instrument. Where there is ineffectiveness and hedge accounting criteria are not met, the change in the fair value of the derivative is accounted for through profit or loss. There was no ineffectiveness during the reporting period in relation to the use of forward foreign exchange contracts. The notional amounts of forward foreign exchange contracts outstanding as at the reporting date, along with the weighted average hedge rates of these contracts and average spot rates for the reporting period, are as follows:

As at 31 May 2026, the aggregate net amount of fair value movements of forward foreign exchange contracts currently deferred in the cash flow hedging reserve was a loss of \u00a30.8 million (2025: \u00a30.2 million loss). It is anticipated that the purchases of the hedged items that these forward exchange contracts were entered into for, will take place during the next financial year and these will be sold within 12 months of purchase. The movement in the hedging reserve during the year was as follows:

The aggregate amount under forward foreign exchange contracts taken directly to profit or loss was a loss of \u00a31.6 million (2025: \u00a30.8 million gain). The majority of the Group\u2019s monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in the functional currency of the relevant subsidiary. The aggregate net foreign exchange gains recognised in profit or loss were \u00a33.5 million (2025: \u00a37.8 million loss) and are primarily as a result of stabilisation of the Nigerian Naira offset by losses on the revaluation of foreign currency (USD) liabilities. At 31 May 2026, the Group held cash and cash equivalents of \u00a351.9m (2025: \u00a345.1m). The principal currency exposures within cash and cash equivalents were: Nigerian Naira \u00a318.5m (2025: \u00a313.1m), US Dollar \u00a311.5m (2025: \u00a310.8m), Thai Baht \u00a38.6m (2025: \u00a34.9m), Pound Sterling \u00a34.7m (2025: \u00a34.1m), Ghanaian Cedi \u00a32.7m (2025: \u00a33.0m) and other currencies \u00a35.9m (2025: \u00a39.2m). At 31 May 2026, \u00a324.5 million (2025: \u00a320.2 million) of the cash and cash equivalents were held by the Group\u2019s Nigerian subsidiaries. The Group\u2019s exposure to foreign currency changes for currencies other than US Dollar and Nigerian Naira is not material. A similar but opposite impact would be felt on both profit or loss and other comprehensive income if the Group\u2019s main transactional currencies weakened against local functional currencies by a similar amount. The following sensitivity analysis illustrates the impact of a 10.0% strengthening of the Group\u2019s transactional currencies against local functional currencies, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Group\u2019s profit before taxation is due to foreign exchange (losses)/gains arising on the revaluation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the subsidiary. The impact on the Group\u2019s other comprehensive income is due to changes in the fair value of forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges (note 1).

The table above shows the foreign currency risk in relation to non-functional currency financial instruments in subsidiaries\u2019 financial statements at the balance sheet date. In addition, the Group is also exposed to foreign currency risk on the translation of overseas subsidiaries\u2019 results into GBP for the Consolidated Financial Statements through the use of the average rate for the Income Statement and the closing rate for net assets. The impact on the Group\u2019s profit before tax and total equity if the applicable rate used to translate the results of the Group\u2019s principal foreign operations into GBP were adjusted to show a 10.0% strengthening of Sterling is shown below. A similar but opposite impact would be felt if Sterling weakened against the other currencies by a similar percentage.

(ii) Commodity pricing risk Commodity risk, is the risk that changes in underlying raw material prices can have an adverse impact on the Group\u2019s financial performance. The Group\u2019s policy is to minimise the pricing volatility accompanied by unfavourable changes in commodity prices by entering into fixed price supplier contracts in line with its commercial strategy. The Group does not enter into any commodity derivatives. (iii) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk, is the risk that a change in interest rates will have an adverse impact on the Group\u2019s financial performance. The Group\u2019s main interest rate risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and borrowings. To manage interest rate risk, the Group manages its proportion of fixed to floating rate borrowings, primarily through issuing fixed and floating rate borrowings, and by utilising interest rate swaps, where appropriate. The following table sets out the sensitivity to reasonably possible changes in the Nigerian interest rates on cash and cash equivalents held by the Group\u2019s Nigerian operations, and reasonably possible changes in SONIA (Sterling Overnight Index Average) interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings at 31 May 2026 (see note 18). With all other variables held constant, the Group\u2019s profit before taxation is affected as follows:

B. Credit risk The Group is exposed to counterparty credit risk from its financing and investing activities with banks and financial institutions, including cash deposits, the use of derivatives and other financial instruments and from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables). The maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount of each class of financial assets. Financing and investing activities The Group maintains a policy on financial counterparty credit risk exposures that limits the maximum exposure on the investment of surplus cash and use of derivative instruments with reference to a minimum credit rating as maintained by Standard & Poor\u2019s (S&P), Moody\u2019s or Fitch, with further limits established for levels of exposure at various ratings levels. The level of exposure and the creditworthiness of the Group\u2019s banking counterparties are regularly reviewed to ensure compliance with this policy. Cash held with lower rated banks reflects the impact of perceived sovereign ceilings operating within those countries. Cash and cash equivalents and net financial derivatives by counterparty credit rating at the end of the reporting period is as follows (ratings per S&P unless unavailable, in which case the Fitch rating is used):

All financial derivative contracts are held in financial institutions with credit ratings of at least A-. The amounts classified B+ to B- counterparty credit rating relate to cash and cash equivalents held predominantly in Nigeria where the sovereign credit rating is B thereby limiting the rating of banks incorporated within the country. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group arising from the use of derivatives or other financial instruments. Trade receivables The Group trades only with creditworthy third parties. Under the Group policy, customers are subject to credit verification procedures to establish appropriate credit terms and trade receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis. An allowance for loss is estimated by management based on the expected credit loss model approach. The creation and release of provisions for receivables is charged/credited to administrative expenses in the Consolidated Income Statement. Receivables are written off when all possible routes through which amounts can be recovered have been exhausted. Trade receivables consist of a broad cross-section of the international customer base for which there is no significant history of default. The credit risk of customers is assessed taking into account the local market environment, customers\u2019 financial positions, past experiences and other relevant factors. Individual customer credit limits are imposed based on these factors, and payment terms are generally 30-45 days, with a range from seven to 120 days which reflects the differing nature of trading in the Group\u2019s geographical segments. No other receivables are deemed to be impaired. The ageing and credit risk profile of trade receivables based on the Group\u2019s provision matrix at the end of the reporting period was:

C. Liquidity risk The Group is exposed to the risk that it is unable to meet its financial commitments as they fall due. Under the terms of the \u00a3270.0 million committed credit facility, the Group must meet certain financial covenants. The covenants are described in the capital risk management section below. The Group manages liquidity risk through the Group Treasury function, with cash flow forecasts prepared and reviewed on a monthly basis. In addition, longer-term cash flow forecasts of up to 12 months are prepared as part of the Group\u2019s monthly forecasting and periodic budget cycles, with performance against free cash flow and net working capital targets monitored each month. The Group\u2019s net debt level can vary from month to month depending on seasonal trading patterns including the holding of inventory, timing of receipts from customers and payments to suppliers, and the timing of any capital and restructuring projects. Set out below is the maturity profile of the Group\u2019s financial liabilities which is based on the contractual undiscounted cash flows prepared using forward interest rates where applicable, showing items at the earliest date on which the liability could be required to be paid (for borrowings under committed facilities, the maturity is based on the maturity of the facility). The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows based on floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rates at the reporting date. Derivatives are presented on a notional basis in GBP.

Capital risk management The objective of the Group when considering total capital is to protect the value of capital investments and to generate returns on shareholder funds. Total capital is defined as including bank borrowings and equity, including, when applicable, derivatives used for the purposes of hedging currency and interest exposure on the borrowings, but excluding the cash flow hedging reserve. In support of its objectives, the Group may undertake actions to adjust its capital structure. Actions may include, but are not limited to, raising or prepaying of borrowings together with related derivative instruments, issuance of additional share capital, payment of dividends or share repurchase programmes. The Group\u2019s \u00a3270.0 million credit facility is subject to financial covenants. The principal covenants on the facility are a leverage ratio of \u22643.0x and interest cover of \u22654.0x which are measured on a rolling 12-month basis at half-year and year-end. The Group considers net debt to be an important performance measure as it forms the basis of the leverage ratio (defined as Net Debt to adjusted EBITDA) in the facility agreement. As at 31 May 2026, the Group\u2019s net debt including lease liabilities was \u00a337.9 million (2025: \u00a3126.9 million), net of \u00a351.9 million (2025: \u00a345.1 million) cash and cash equivalents as described in note 18. Interest cover is defined in the facility agreements as the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to net finance (expense)/income. The committed credit facility also includes other customary provisions relating to events of default, including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, misrepresentations, breach of covenants, creditor process, cross-default to other indebtedness of the borrowers and its subsidiaries. Subsequent to 31 May 2026, on 9 June 2026, the Group entered into a new four-year \u00a3225.0 million Revolving Credit Facility maturing in June 2030, with substantially similar terms to the previous facilities including two, one-year extension options. During the year, and as at the reporting date, the Group was in compliance with all financial and other covenants. Fair values Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Group uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Group uses certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs may be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: \u2022 Level 1: Derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. \u2022 Level 2: Derived from observable inputs other than Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data. \u2022 Level 3: Derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). This may include pricing models, discounted cash flow or similar methodologies as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgement or estimation. There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 and 3 during the current or prior year. At the end of the reporting period, the Group held the following financial assets and liabilities at fair value:

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies and assumptions used for estimating the fair values: \u2022 Derivative financial instruments \u2013 Derivative financial instruments comprise forward foreign exchange contracts. Fair value is calculated using observable market data where it is available, including spot rates and observable forward points, as discounted to reflect the time value of money. Counterparty credit is monitored. No adjustment to the fair value for credit risk is made due to materiality. For the financial assets and liabilities not held at fair value, there was no material difference between their carrying values and their fair values, except for non-current borrowings which are presented net of unamortised issuance costs of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.8 million).", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfFinancialRiskManagementExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:XB3CXKKKED7OMV80FY35", "period": "2025-06-01T00:00:00/2026-06-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-493": { "value": "Financial assets

1 Excludes other taxation and social security. Borrowings are amounts drawn under both committed and uncommitted borrowing facilities. At 31 May 2026, the Group has a \u00a3270.0 million (2025: \u00a3325.0 million) committed credit facility which is available for general corporate purposes. The credit facility incorporates both a GBP Term Loan, of up to \u00a370.0 million, originally \u00a3125 million, with the balance as a multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) structure (together the \u2018Facilities\u2019). Entered into in November 2022, the Term Loan is a two-year facility and the RCF a four-year facility, with both facilities retaining two, one-year extension options. The first option for both RCF and Term Loan was executed in October 2023, and the second Term Loan extension was executed in March 2025. Following this extension, the Term Loan reduced to \u00a370.0 million and as at 31 May 2026, was due to mature on 8 November 2026. Drawings under the Facilities incur a margin of 1.35\u20132.05% above underlying reference rates, and dependent on the Group net leverage. Borrowings as at 31 May 2026, are presented net of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.4 million) of unamortised financing fees. Arrangement fees of \u00a30.8 million (2025: \u00a31.0 million) have been charged to the income statement in the year ended 31 May 2026. Borrowings comprise current borrowings of \u00a370.0 million (2025: \u00a3125.0 million) of Term Loans which are denominated in GBP at an interest rate of 5.20% (2025: 6.18%), and \u00a37.0 million (2025: \u00a332.5 million) of non-current borrowings under the RCF which are denominated in GBP at an interest rate of 5.18% (2025: 6.04\u20136.10%). At 31 May 2026, all borrowings were from committed facilities. In addition, the Group retains other unsecured and uncommitted facilities primarily used for trade-related activities in Nigeria where ordinary trading activities are required to be supported by letters of credit (or similar). As at 31 May 2026, such facilities amounted to \u00a3118.1 million (2025: \u00a3122.1 million) of which \u00a330.5 million, or 26%, were used (2025: \u00a333.7 million or 28%). As at the reporting date, there were no bank overdrafts (2025: \u00a3nil). Subsequent to 31 May 2026, on 9 June 2026, the Group entered into a new four-year \u00a3225.0 million Revolving Credit Facility maturing in June 2030, with substantially similar terms to the previous facilities including two, one-year extension options. Specifically, drawings under the Facilities incur a margin of 1.85\u20132.55% above underlying reference rates, and dependent on the Group net leverage. The previous facilities were fully repaid on 10 June 2026, and an equivalent amount was drawn under the new facility on the same date. As the refinancing occurred subsequent to 31 May 2026, it has not affected the classification or measurement of borrowings at that date.

Market risk The Group\u2019s principal market risks are in relation to foreign currency exchange rates, the prices of certain commodities and interest rates. In managing market risks, the Group aims to minimise the impact of short-term fluctuations on the Group\u2019s financial performance. However, over the longer term, permanent changes in market rates will have an impact on consolidated results. (i) Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk is the risk that the carrying value of Group assets, liabilities or future cash flows will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Group is exposed to foreign currency exchange translation and transaction risks as follows: \u2022 Foreign currency exchange translation risks arise due to the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary into functional currency, with the foreign exchange gain/(loss) recorded in the income statement. Further translation differences arise on the translation of net assets of its non-GBP functional currency subsidiary undertakings into GBP being the Group\u2019s presentation currency, with the foreign exchange gain/(loss) recorded in other comprehensive income. \u2022 Foreign currency exchange transaction risk occurs due to changes in the value of cash flows in a currency other than the functional currency of the subsidiary undertaking. The most significant foreign exchange transaction risk exposures for the Group are the purchase of inventories (predominantly raw materials) and services denominated in USD and Euros. Group policy is to reduce this risk where possible, by using forward foreign exchange derivative contracts as hedging instruments that are typically designated as cash flow hedges. In these cases, the Group negotiates the terms of the derivative to match the critical terms of the hedged item normally including covering the period from initial forecasting of the hedged item purchase commitment to the point of settlement. Hedge accounting is typically applied to remove any timing mismatch between the hedging instrument and hedged item, with the effective portion of the change in fair value of the hedging instrument initially accounted for in the hedging reserve through other comprehensive income. If the firm commitment or forecast transaction that is the subject of a cash flow hedge results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or liability, then, at the time the asset or liability is recognised, the associated gains or losses on the derivative that had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the hedging reserve are removed directly from equity and included in the initial measurement of the asset or liability. If the hedged item is transaction-related, the foreign currency \u2018basis spread\u2019 is reclassified to profit or loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss. Those reclassified amounts are recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement in the same line as the hedged item. Hedge ineffectiveness may arise from items including changes in forecast transactions, misalignment in critical terms, or if credit dominates the relationship between hedged item and hedging instrument. Where there is ineffectiveness and hedge accounting criteria are not met, the change in the fair value of the derivative is accounted for through profit or loss. There was no ineffectiveness during the reporting period in relation to the use of forward foreign exchange contracts. The notional amounts of forward foreign exchange contracts outstanding as at the reporting date, along with the weighted average hedge rates of these contracts and average spot rates for the reporting period, are as follows:

As at 31 May 2026, the aggregate net amount of fair value movements of forward foreign exchange contracts currently deferred in the cash flow hedging reserve was a loss of \u00a30.8 million (2025: \u00a30.2 million loss). It is anticipated that the purchases of the hedged items that these forward exchange contracts were entered into for, will take place during the next financial year and these will be sold within 12 months of purchase. The movement in the hedging reserve during the year was as follows:

The aggregate amount under forward foreign exchange contracts taken directly to profit or loss was a loss of \u00a31.6 million (2025: \u00a30.8 million gain). The majority of the Group\u2019s monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in the functional currency of the relevant subsidiary. The aggregate net foreign exchange gains recognised in profit or loss were \u00a33.5 million (2025: \u00a37.8 million loss) and are primarily as a result of stabilisation of the Nigerian Naira offset by losses on the revaluation of foreign currency (USD) liabilities. At 31 May 2026, the Group held cash and cash equivalents of \u00a351.9m (2025: \u00a345.1m). The principal currency exposures within cash and cash equivalents were: Nigerian Naira \u00a318.5m (2025: \u00a313.1m), US Dollar \u00a311.5m (2025: \u00a310.8m), Thai Baht \u00a38.6m (2025: \u00a34.9m), Pound Sterling \u00a34.7m (2025: \u00a34.1m), Ghanaian Cedi \u00a32.7m (2025: \u00a33.0m) and other currencies \u00a35.9m (2025: \u00a39.2m). At 31 May 2026, \u00a324.5 million (2025: \u00a320.2 million) of the cash and cash equivalents were held by the Group\u2019s Nigerian subsidiaries. The Group\u2019s exposure to foreign currency changes for currencies other than US Dollar and Nigerian Naira is not material. A similar but opposite impact would be felt on both profit or loss and other comprehensive income if the Group\u2019s main transactional currencies weakened against local functional currencies by a similar amount. The following sensitivity analysis illustrates the impact of a 10.0% strengthening of the Group\u2019s transactional currencies against local functional currencies, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Group\u2019s profit before taxation is due to foreign exchange (losses)/gains arising on the revaluation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the subsidiary. The impact on the Group\u2019s other comprehensive income is due to changes in the fair value of forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges (note 1).

The table above shows the foreign currency risk in relation to non-functional currency financial instruments in subsidiaries\u2019 financial statements at the balance sheet date. In addition, the Group is also exposed to foreign currency risk on the translation of overseas subsidiaries\u2019 results into GBP for the Consolidated Financial Statements through the use of the average rate for the Income Statement and the closing rate for net assets. The impact on the Group\u2019s profit before tax and total equity if the applicable rate used to translate the results of the Group\u2019s principal foreign operations into GBP were adjusted to show a 10.0% strengthening of Sterling is shown below. A similar but opposite impact would be felt if Sterling weakened against the other currencies by a similar percentage.

(ii) Commodity pricing risk Commodity risk, is the risk that changes in underlying raw material prices can have an adverse impact on the Group\u2019s financial performance. The Group\u2019s policy is to minimise the pricing volatility accompanied by unfavourable changes in commodity prices by entering into fixed price supplier contracts in line with its commercial strategy. The Group does not enter into any commodity derivatives. (iii) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk, is the risk that a change in interest rates will have an adverse impact on the Group\u2019s financial performance. The Group\u2019s main interest rate risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and borrowings. To manage interest rate risk, the Group manages its proportion of fixed to floating rate borrowings, primarily through issuing fixed and floating rate borrowings, and by utilising interest rate swaps, where appropriate. The following table sets out the sensitivity to reasonably possible changes in the Nigerian interest rates on cash and cash equivalents held by the Group\u2019s Nigerian operations, and reasonably possible changes in SONIA (Sterling Overnight Index Average) interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings at 31 May 2026 (see note 18).

Credit risk The Group is exposed to counterparty credit risk from its financing and investing activities with banks and financial institutions, including cash deposits, the use of derivatives and other financial instruments and from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables). The maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount of each class of financial assets. Financing and investing activities The Group maintains a policy on financial counterparty credit risk exposures that limits the maximum exposure on the investment of surplus cash and use of derivative instruments with reference to a minimum credit rating as maintained by Standard & Poor\u2019s (S&P), Moody\u2019s or Fitch, with further limits established for levels of exposure at various ratings levels. The level of exposure and the creditworthiness of the Group\u2019s banking counterparties are regularly reviewed to ensure compliance with this policy. Cash held with lower rated banks reflects the impact of perceived sovereign ceilings operating within those countries. Cash and cash equivalents and net financial derivatives by counterparty credit rating at the end of the reporting period is as follows (ratings per S&P unless unavailable, in which case the Fitch rating is used):

All financial derivative contracts are held in financial institutions with credit ratings of at least A-. The amounts classified B+ to B- counterparty credit rating relate to cash and cash equivalents held predominantly in Nigeria where the sovereign credit rating is B thereby limiting the rating of banks incorporated within the country. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group arising from the use of derivatives or other financial instruments. Trade receivables The Group trades only with creditworthy third parties. Under the Group policy, customers are subject to credit verification procedures to establish appropriate credit terms and trade receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis. An allowance for loss is estimated by management based on the expected credit loss model approach. The creation and release of provisions for receivables is charged/credited to administrative expenses in the Consolidated Income Statement. Receivables are written off when all possible routes through which amounts can be recovered have been exhausted. Trade receivables consist of a broad cross-section of the international customer base for which there is no significant history of default. The credit risk of customers is assessed taking into account the local market environment, customers\u2019 financial positions, past experiences and other relevant factors. Individual customer credit limits are imposed based on these factors, and payment terms are generally 30-45 days, with a range from seven to 120 days which reflects the differing nature of trading in the Group\u2019s geographical segments. No other receivables are deemed to be impaired. The ageing and credit risk profile of trade receivables based on the Group\u2019s provision matrix at the end of the reporting period was:

Liquidity risk The Group is exposed to the risk that it is unable to meet its financial commitments as they fall due. Under the terms of the \u00a3270.0 million committed credit facility, the Group must meet certain financial covenants. The covenants are described in the capital risk management section below. The Group manages liquidity risk through the Group Treasury function, with cash flow forecasts prepared and reviewed on a monthly basis. In addition, longer-term cash flow forecasts of up to 12 months are prepared as part of the Group\u2019s monthly forecasting and periodic budget cycles, with performance against free cash flow and net working capital targets monitored each month. The Group\u2019s net debt level can vary from month to month depending on seasonal trading patterns including the holding of inventory, timing of receipts from customers and payments to suppliers, and the timing of any capital and restructuring projects. Set out below is the maturity profile of the Group\u2019s financial liabilities which is based on the contractual undiscounted cash flows prepared using forward interest rates where applicable, showing items at the earliest date on which the liability could be required to be paid (for borrowings under committed facilities, the maturity is based on the maturity of the facility). The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows based on floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rates at the reporting date.

Capital risk management
The objective of the Group when considering total capital is to protect the value of capital investments and to generate returns on shareholder
funds. Total capital is defined as including bank borrowings and equity, including, when applicable, derivatives used for the purposes of hedging
currency and interest exposure on the borrowings, but excluding the cash flow hedging reserve.
In support of its objectives, the Group may undertake actions to adjust its capital structure. Actions may include, but are not limited to, raising
or prepaying of borrowings together with related derivative instruments, issuance of additional share capital, payment of dividends or share
repurchase programmes.
The Group\u2019s \u00a3270.0 million credit facility is subject to financial covenants. The principal covenants on the facility are a leverage ratio of
\u22643.0x and interest cover of \u22654.0x which are measured on a rolling 12-month basis at half-year and year-end. The Group considers net debt
to be an important performance measure as it forms the basis of the leverage ratio (defined as Net Debt to adjusted EBITDA) in the facility
agreement. As at 31 May 2026, the Group\u2019s net debt including lease liabilities was \u00a337.9 million (2025: \u00a3126.9 million), net of \u00a351.9 million
(2025: \u00a345.1 million) cash and cash equivalents as described in note 18. Interest cover is defined in the facility agreements as the ratio of
Adjusted EBITDA to net finance (expense)/income. The committed credit facility also includes other customary provisions relating to events
of default, including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, misrepresentations, breach of covenants, creditor process, cross-default to
other indebtedness of the borrowers and its subsidiaries. Subsequent to 31 May 2026, on 9 June 2026, the Group entered into a new four-year
\u00a3225.0 million Revolving Credit Facility maturing in June 2030, with substantially similar terms to the previous facilities including two, one-year
extension options.
During the year, and as at the reporting date, the Group was in compliance with all financial and other covenants.

Fair values
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Group uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on
these approaches, the Group uses certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions
about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs may be readily observable, market corroborated, or
generally unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values.
Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
\u2022 Level 1: Derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
\u2022 Level 2: Derived from observable inputs other than Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active
markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data.
\u2022 Level 3: Derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs). This may include pricing models, discounted cash flow or similar methodologies as well as instruments for which the
determination of fair value requires significant management judgement or estimation.
There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 and 3 during the current or prior year.
At the end of the reporting period, the Group held the following financial assets and liabilities at fair value:

Deferred taxation assets are recognised for tax loss carry forwards to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable. At 31 May 2026, the Group recorded a deferred taxation asset of \u00a321.5 million (2025: \u00a326.8 million) on recognised but unused tax losses primarily relating to the historical impact of the Naira devaluation and resulting unrealised FX and operating losses, together with unrelieved Group losses in the UK. Given the high probability of ongoing profitability together with other supporting items, deferred tax assets are recognised in full. The reduction in the year primarily reflects utilisation of losses associated with positive operating performance and settlement of Nigerian intercompany debt balances. A further \u00a31.8 million (2025: \u00a37.0 million) of unrecognised tax losses are not expected to expire or be disposed of, together with \u00a314.2 million (2025: \u00a312.7 million) of unrecognised capital losses relating to the disposal of the five:am business. There is also an additional unrecognised deferred taxation asset of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.1 million) relating to timing differences other than unrecognised tax losses. This amount relates to property, plant and equipment differences, unused temporary differences, and accruals and provisions, and it is not probable that these timing differences will reverse in the foreseeable future. Other temporary differences include a liability for brands and goodwill of \u00a37.4 million (2025: \u00a37.4 million), an asset for corporate interest restriction of \u00a39.3 million (2025: \u00a317.8 million) and an asset for share-based payments of \u00a30.4 million (2025: \u00a30.4 million). A deferred tax liability of \u00a32.0 million (2025: \u00a31.2 million) in respect of unremitted earnings in Indonesia, Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria have been recognised on the basis that unremitted earnings would be liable to overseas withholding taxes if anticipated to be distributed as dividends. As at 31 May 2026, the aggregate amount of gross temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries for which deferred taxation liabilities have not been recognised is \u00a330.9 million (2025: \u00a324.2 million) which now includes unrecognised gross temporary differences relating to Nigeria. Following the amendments to IAS 12 in relation to Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction, the Group has recognised a separate deferred tax asset in relation to its lease liability of \u00a33.0 million (2025: \u00a33.5 million) and a deferred tax liability in relation to its right-of-use assets of \u00a32.7 million (2025: \u00a33.1 million). There was no impact on the statement of financial position because the balances qualify for offset under paragraph 74 of IAS 12. Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been classified as non-current. The timing of reversal of the underlying temporary differences is dependent on future events and cannot be reliably estimated. Accordingly, the Group has not separately disclosed amounts expected to reverse within and after 12 months. After offsetting deferred taxation assets and liabilities where appropriate within jurisdictions (as permitted by IAS 12 Income Taxes), the net deferred taxation liability comprises:

Deferred taxation assets are recognised for tax loss carry forwards to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable. At 31 May 2026, the Group recorded a deferred taxation asset of \u00a321.5 million (2025: \u00a326.8 million) on recognised but unused tax losses primarily relating to the historical impact of the Naira devaluation and resulting unrealised FX and operating losses, together with unrelieved Group losses in the UK. Given the high probability of ongoing profitability together with other supporting items, deferred tax assets are recognised in full. The reduction in the year primarily reflects utilisation of losses associated with positive operating performance and settlement of Nigerian intercompany debt balances. A further \u00a31.8 million (2025: \u00a37.0 million) of unrecognised tax losses are not expected to expire or be disposed of, together with \u00a314.2 million (2025: \u00a312.7 million) of unrecognised capital losses relating to the disposal of the five:am business. There is also an additional unrecognised deferred taxation asset of \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.1 million) relating to timing differences other than unrecognised tax losses. This amount relates to property, plant and equipment differences, unused temporary differences, and accruals and provisions, and it is not probable that these timing differences will reverse in the foreseeable future. Other temporary differences include a liability for brands and goodwill of \u00a37.4 million (2025: \u00a37.4 million), an asset for corporate interest restriction of \u00a39.3 million (2025: \u00a317.8 million) and an asset for share-based payments of \u00a30.4 million (2025: \u00a30.4 million). A deferred tax liability of \u00a32.0 million (2025: \u00a31.2 million) in respect of unremitted earnings in Indonesia, Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria have been recognised on the basis that unremitted earnings would be liable to overseas withholding taxes if anticipated to be distributed as dividends. As at 31 May 2026, the aggregate amount of gross temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries for which deferred taxation liabilities have not been recognised is \u00a330.9 million (2025: \u00a324.2 million) which now includes unrecognised gross temporary differences relating to Nigeria.

23. RETIREMENT BENEFITS AND OTHER LONG-TERM EMPLOYEE OBLIGATIONS
The Group operates retirement benefit schemes in the UK and overseas as described below.
UK retirement benefit schemes
The Group operates four defined benefit pension schemes in the UK, each of which were closed to future accrual on 31 May 2008. The schemes
are as follows:
\u2022 PZ Cussons Retirement Benefits Plan (Main plan) \u2013 for UK-based employees excluding PZ Cussons plc Executive Directors.
\u2022 PZ Cussons Directors\u2019 Retirement Benefits Plan (Directors\u2019 plan) \u2013 for PZ Cussons plc Executive Directors.
\u2022 PZ Cussons Pension Fund and Life Assurance Scheme for Staff Employed Outside the UK (Expatriate plan) \u2013 for all eligible expatriate
employees based outside the UK.
\u2022 PZ Cussons Employer Financial Retirement Benefits Scheme (Unfunded plan) \u2013 an unfunded, unapproved retirement scheme for certain
former PZ Cussons plc Directors.
The UK Plans operate under trust law and responsibility for their governance lies with a Board of Trustees composed of representatives of the
Group, plan participants and an independent trustee, who act on behalf of members in accordance with the terms of the Trust Deed and Rules
and relevant legislation.
Current and deferred members of these schemes are provided with defined benefits based on service and final salary. The Main plan,
Directors\u2019 plan and Expatriate plan are funded schemes and the assets of the schemes are administered by trustees and are held in trust funds
independent of the Group. The most recent triennial actuarial valuations of these schemes was as at 31 May 2024, and were performed by an
independent professional actuary. Each scheme was determined to be in surplus and therefore there are no Company contributions required to
be paid before the next valuation.
In June 2023, in the case of Virgin Media vs NTL Pension Trustees II Limited, the High Court judged that amendments made to the Virgin Media
scheme were invalid because they were not accompanied by the correct actuarial confirmation. On 25 July 2024, the Court of Appeal upheld the
June 2023 High Court decision. The Court\u2019s decision could have wide-ranging implications, affecting other schemes that were contracted-out on
a salary related basis, and made amendments between April 1997 and April 2016.
On 29 April 2026, the Pension Schemes Act 2026 was enacted to address the uncertainty arising from the Virgin Media judgment. The legislation
introduced a statutory remediation framework, enabling affected schemes to validate certain historic amendments retrospectively where the
required actuarial confirmation is obtained.
Based on legal advice received and the trustees\u2019 current assessment, there are no indications that the Group\u2019s UK defined benefit schemes are
materially impacted by the issues identified in the Virgin Media case. The Group continues to monitor developments and guidance in relation to
the remediation framework. At the reporting date, the Group considers that there is no reliable basis on which to quantify any potential impact
on the defined benefit obligation. Accordingly, no adjustment has been recognised in respect of this matter in the measurement of the defined
benefit obligation.
The UK\u2019s main schemes expose the Group to the following risks:

The trust deeds for the Main plan and Directors\u2019 plan provide the Group with an unconditional right to a refund of surplus assets assuming
the full settlement of plan liabilities in the event of a plan wind-up. Furthermore, in the ordinary course of business the trustee has no rights to
unilaterally wind up, or otherwise augment the benefits due to members of the scheme. Based on these rights, any net surpluses in these two UK
schemes are recognised in full.
The trust deed for the Expatriate plan provides the trustees with an unconditional right to wind up the scheme and distribute the surplus to
members. Therefore, the surplus on the Expatriate plan has not been recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet (shown as a restriction due
to asset ceiling in the table above).

\u00a30.2 million (2026: \u00a30.2 million) to unfunded schemes.
Overseas retirement benefit schemes
Outside of the UK, the Group operates a number of defined benefit pension schemes. The most significant overseas defined benefit scheme
is operated by the Group\u2019s Indonesian subsidiary. This is a final salary pension plan, defined in Indonesian law, which provides benefits to
members in the form of a guaranteed level of pension payable for life. The level of benefits provided depends on members\u2019 length of service
and their salary in the final years leading up to retirement.

The schemes are as follows: \u2022 PZ Cussons Retirement Benefits Plan (Main plan) \u2013 for UK-based employees excluding PZ Cussons plc Executive Directors. \u2022 PZ Cussons Directors\u2019 Retirement Benefits Plan (Directors\u2019 plan) \u2013 for PZ Cussons plc Executive Directors. \u2022 PZ Cussons Pension Fund and Life Assurance Scheme for Staff Employed Outside the UK (Expatriate plan) \u2013 for all eligible expatriate employees based outside the UK. \u2022 PZ Cussons Employer Financial Retirement Benefits Scheme (Unfunded plan) \u2013 an unfunded, unapproved retirement scheme for certain former PZ Cussons plc Directors. The UK Plans operate under trust law and responsibility for their governance lies with a Board of Trustees composed of representatives of the Group, plan participants and an independent trustee, who act on behalf of members in accordance with the terms of the Trust Deed and Rules and relevant legislation. Current and deferred members of these schemes are provided with defined benefits based on service and final salary. The Main plan, Directors\u2019 plan and Expatriate plan are funded schemes and the assets of the schemes are administered by trustees and are held in trust funds independent of the Group. The most recent triennial actuarial valuations of these schemes was as at 31 May 2024, and were performed by an independent professional actuary. Each scheme was determined to be in surplus and therefore there are no Company contributions required to be paid before the next valuation. In June 2023, in the case of Virgin Media vs NTL Pension Trustees II Limited, the High Court judged that amendments made to the Virgin Media scheme were invalid because they were not accompanied by the correct actuarial confirmation. On 25 July 2024, the Court of Appeal upheld the June 2023 High Court decision. The Court\u2019s decision could have wide-ranging implications, affecting other schemes that were contracted-out on a salary related basis, and made amendments between April 1997 and April 2016. On 29 April 2026, the Pension Schemes Act 2026 was enacted to address the uncertainty arising from the Virgin Media judgment. The legislation introduced a statutory remediation framework, enabling affected schemes to validate certain historic amendments retrospectively where the required actuarial confirmation is obtained. Based on legal advice received and the trustees\u2019 current assessment, there are no indications that the Group\u2019s UK defined benefit schemes are materially impacted by the issues identified in the Virgin Media case. The Group continues to monitor developments and guidance in relation to the remediation framework. At the reporting date, the Group considers that there is no reliable basis on which to quantify any potential impact on the defined benefit obligation. Accordingly, no adjustment has been recognised in respect of this matter in the measurement of the defined benefit obligation. The UK\u2019s main schemes expose the Group to the following risks:

The trust deeds for the Main plan and Directors\u2019 plan provide the Group with an unconditional right to a refund of surplus assets assuming the full settlement of plan liabilities in the event of a plan wind-up. Furthermore, in the ordinary course of business the trustee has no rights to unilaterally wind up, or otherwise augment the benefits due to members of the scheme. Based on these rights, any net surpluses in these two UK schemes are recognised in full. The trust deed for the Expatriate plan provides the trustees with an unconditional right to wind up the scheme and distribute the surplus to members. Therefore, the surplus on the Expatriate plan has not been recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet (shown as a restriction due to asset ceiling in the table above).

25. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
The Group operates a number of long-term incentive schemes which provide share awards to Executive Directors and certain senior employees.
These schemes are designed to align the interests of the participants with those of the Group\u2019s shareholders. The Group also operates a SIP
scheme which is open to UK employees.
The incentive schemes are described below.
Long-Term Incentive Plan
The PZ Cussons Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) was approved by shareholders and adopted at the 2020 Annual General Meeting with rules
revised in November 2021.
The LTIP plan provides for the grant of restricted share unit (RSU) awards for the senior employees and Executive Directors, to function like
restricted stock. These share awards are nil-cost shares which vest in full subject only to continued employment, with no performance
conditions. The fair value of the awards is determined to be the market price of the underlying shares on the date of the grant. There are no cash
settlement alternatives. The Group accounts for the restricted share awards as equity-settled awards. In the current year, 4,357,577 restricted
share awards (2025: 4,033,454 awards) were granted equating to a total fair value of \u00a33.5 million (2025: \u00a33.8 million) which will be recognised
over the vesting period. Under the LTIP plan, Executive Directors and certain senior employees are also eligible to participate in the PSP, which
provides for the grant of conditional rights to receive nil-cost shares (performance shares) subject to continued employment over a three-year
vesting period and the satisfaction of certain performance criteria established by the Remuneration Committee. The fair value of the awards
is determined to be the market price of the underlying shares on the date of the grant.
There are no cash settlement alternatives. The Group accounts for the performance share awards as equity-settled awards. The last grant of
performance share awards took place in February 2023 and vested in September 2025. 22,171 (2025: 5,985) dividend share units were awarded
and exercised during the current year, attached to performance share awards granted in previous years.
The total expense recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement in the year in respect of both the performance share awards and the
restricted share awards was \u00a32.9 million (2025: \u00a32.4 million).
Deferred Bonus Share Plan
This plan is limited to the Executive Directors and requires a minimum of 40% of any annual bonus (25% for awards granted prior to September
2024) earned to be deferred into shares (deferred bonus shares). The deferral period is two years (three years for awards granted prior to
September 2024) unless the Remuneration Committee determines otherwise and the shares vest in full subject only to continued employment,
with no performance conditions. The fair value of the deferred bonus share awards is determined to be the market price of the underlying shares
on the date of the grant. The Group accounts for the deferred bonus share awards as equity-settled awards.
In the current year, 641,195 deferred bonus share awards (2025: 441,587 awards) were granted equating to a total fair value of \u00a30.5 million
(2025: \u00a30.4 million) which will be recognised over the vesting period. The expense recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement in the year
in respect of deferred bonus share awards was \u00a30.3 million (2025: \u00a30.1 million).
Share Incentive Plan (SIP)
The Group launched the SIP in October 2021. Available to UK employees, this plan aligns employees with the business strategy and investors by
encouraging equity participation through the wider employee population. Under the plan, employees can opt to make a salary deduction on a
monthly basis to subscribe for shares which the Group matches up to a maximum of \u00a3100 per employee per month. These matched share awards
vest subject to continued employment over a three-year vesting period and a number of conditions associated with withdrawal. The fair value of the
matched share awards is determined to be the market price of the shares on the date of matching. There are no cash settlement alternatives.
The Group accounts for the matched share awards as equity-settled awards. In the current year, 227,068 matched share awards (2025: 198,097 awards)
were granted equating to a total fair value of \u00a30.2 million (2025: \u00a30.2 million) which will be recognised over the vesting period. The expense
recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement in the year in respect of matched share awards was \u00a30.1 million (2025: \u00a30.1 million).
