RE: 40% is oversold for error21 Aug 2025 11:43
There is no question of the materiality at £30m but all things being equal does not equate to a drop in MCAP of £500m, I think this is an isolated accounting / control issue but lets see, one thing is for sure the FD needs to have a look in the mirror as clearly does not have the correct controls in place but for me there is a disconnect between the current SP / MCAP assuming its a £30m error.....who is to say there aren't "errors" going the other way in the UK business, i suspect there will be some balance sheet provisions being released that weren't required (probably never required) to off set some of this issue in America.
