Investors not yet verified
Named investors have not yet been established from the evidence used in this directory. This is a research gap; it does not mean the company has no investors. A stake in a parent or operating company is shown against that entity. Dates refer to each disclosure and can differ from the profile review date. Evidence links are included with each record.
03 / The figures, with context
The annual report says the majority, not all, of the group's corporation tax is paid in the UK. The consolidated cash-flow statement does not provide a country split, so its payment cannot be treated as UK-only. The separate parent-company statement is not the retail group's payment. The consolidated cash-flow statement reports GBP 12m corporation tax paid. Its tax policy covers multiple jurisdictions, and the majority-UK wording does not establish an exact UK component.
