The Directors’ Report is prepared in line with the relevant provisions of the Companies Act 2006. In preparing the Directors’ Report the Company has had regard to the guidance issued by the Accounting Standards Board in its Reporting Statement on narrative reporting. The Directors’ Report is intended to provide shareholders with a greater understanding of the Company, of its position in the markets within which it operates, and of its prospects. In setting out the Company’s main risks and uncertainties, an indication of likely future developments, and in other content, this report and accounts contains statements which, by their nature, cannot be considered indications of likelihood or certainty. The statements are based on the knowledge and information available at the date of preparation of the Directors’ Report, and what are believed to be reasonable judgements. A wide range of factors may cause the actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those contained within, or implied by, these various forward-looking statements. None of these statements should be construed as a profit forecast.
