NOTES TO THE INTERIM REPORT
31 March 2011
1. Basis of preparation
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of this
financial information are consistent with those adopted in the
statutory accounts for the year ended 30 September 2010.
The Group has designated certain forward currency contracts as
cash flow hedges. These arrangements have been entered into to
mitigate currency exchange risk arising from forecast sales
denominated in foreign currencies.
The financial information shown is unaudited and does not
constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434(1)
of the Companies Act 2006.
It should be noted that accounting estimates and assumptions are
used in preparation of the interim financial information. Although
these estimates are based on management's best knowledge and
judgement of current events and actions, actual results may
ultimately differ from those estimates.
The figures for the year ended 30 September 2010 were derived
from the statutory accounts for that period. The statutory accounts
for the year ended 30 September 2010 have been delivered to the
Registrar of Companies and received an audit report which was
unqualified and did not contain statements under Section 498(2) or
(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
This interim report was approved by the Board on 30 June
2011.
