01 / Behind the name
Private [1]
The statement identifies the shirts business. The current ultimate holding company and exact beneficial shareholdings have not been fully verified for this profile. Bectin's filed accounts say Charles Tyrwhitt Holding Company, incorporated in the Isle of Man and UK tax resident, acquired all Bectin shares on 21 November 2025. They identify no single ultimate controlling party; the full current beneficial-owner chain remains unverified. Current Companies House disclosures for Charles Tyrwhitt Shirts Limited (02914928): Mr Nicholas Charles Tyrwhitt Wheeler: Ownership of shares – 75% or more; Ownership of voting rights - 75% or more. Mrs Belinda Christian Wheeler: Ownership of shares – 75% or more; Ownership of voting rights - 75% or more. Mr Thomas Edward Purton: Ownership of shares – 75% or more with control over the trustees of a trust; Ownership of voting rights - 75% or more with control over the trustees of a trust.

Headquarters, incorporation and tax residence describe different things. A headquarters address does not tell you where all of a company’s tax is paid.

Registered share control only
The reviewed register names share controllers. Exact economic interests, smaller shareholders and the complete ultimate investor chain have not been verified. Individual and family investor entries are currently hidden. 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 operating-company accounts take an FRS 102 exemption from presenting a cash-flow statement. Their tax charge is not a cash payment. They refer to Bectin Limited's consolidation for this historical period; this does not override the newer control disclosures on the register.
