As at 30 June 2021, the Group had financial liabilities amounting to GBP 10,000 thousand that are exposed to exchange rate risk. In order to fully hedge the currency risk, EUR/GBP currency forwards with matching maturities and a notional volume of GBP 10,000 thousand have been entered into, which are not part of an IFRS 9 hedge accounting relationship and are therefore accounted for on a stand-alone basis.
A strengthening (weakening) of the pound sterling (GBP) against the euro (EUR) by +10% (-10%) would not have any material effect on the statement of comprehensive income as at 30 June 2021, as the changes in value of the financial liabilities and the currency forwards offset each other in the statement of comprehensive income.
