I don’t want to get into a long conversation about it but a pension deficit is NOT debt. It is a far longer term liability, managed by trustees who can act with considerable flexibility, and generally understand the need to maintain a healthy business to protect future contributions. Carclo appears to have a supportive relationship with the trustees. So if the assertion is that the pension deficit should be added to the EV in the same way net debt is, that is a rather subjective assessment, and not one that all educated investors will agree with.
