Following guidance from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) relating to the unprecedented challenges faced by companies and their auditors in preparing financial information and accounts during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group now expects to report its preliminary results for the year ended 31 March 2020 on 23 June 2020, instead of the previously announced date of 19 May 2020.
This new date has been agreed with the Group's auditors to also allow them additional time to carry out the necessary audit process in light of travel and social distancing restrictions.
