Serco Group plc
3/5/2026
Good morning everyone and thank you for joining us for the presentation of Serco's 2025 full year results. I'm Anthony Kirby. I'm the group chief executive and I'm extremely proud to lead what I believe is one of the best companies in the world. My more than 50,000 great colleagues deliver mission critical services in some of the most demanding environments globally. and their commitment, skill and resilience continues to inspire us every day. Nigel Crossley, our Group CFO, and I are delighted to be able to present the strong set of results on their behalf. But before we begin, it would be remiss of me not to recognise Nigel's outstanding contribution to Serco at this stage. more than 11 years of dedicated service, as well as five as the group chief financial officer. And on behalf of the board, the executive committee and all of his colleagues across Serco, I want to offer my sincere thanks and wish you, Nigel and Lorraine, a very happy, long and safe retirement. I'd also like to take this opportunity to introduce Mark Reid, who is with us in the room this morning, who will succeed Nigel as the group CFO, joining the board in the coming days. But before we go on, I must refer you to the disclaimer, which is in the presentation pack. As ever, the running order will start with me giving you an overview of our 2025 performance, the key themes that shape the year, the highlights and the progress that we've made, and the momentum that we're carrying into 2026. I'll then hand over to Nigel, who will take you through the financials in more detail. And after that, I'll return to talk about how we're sharpening Serco's strategic focus and strengthening our platform for future delivery. We'll then open up for Q&A. So let me begin with an overview of what has been a strong year for Serco. 2025 was a year that was defined by disciplined execution, strong operational delivery and continued strategic progress. Across the organisation, be that in defence, justice and immigration or citizen services, we delivered with professionalism, pride and purpose. Our full year performance in 2025 has been strong and positions as well for 26. We delivered robust revenue and profit performance and critically, we've done so while maintaining our focus on competitiveness, operational excellence and growth. You've heard me speak previously about our focus on safe, sustainable, profitable growth. That focus remains absolute and is clearly reflected in our results. Our deliberate multi-year investment in defence expansion is proven effective. We've deepened our strategic intent and it's a sector where our momentum is unmistakable. Alongside defence, we have sharpened our attention on justice and immigration and citizen services. And I'll come back to talk about more in detail on those three sectors following Nigel. But turning to the headlines for a moment, revenue for the year was £4.9 billion, up 3% of constant currency. Underlying operating profit was £272 million, delivering a margin of 5.6%. Cash conversion was again exceptional, reflecting disciplined work in capital management. And our order intake was £5.5 billion, representing a book-to-bill of 114%, with more than two-thirds coming from our defence business. This performance demonstrates the trust our customers place in us and reinforces the momentum that we carry into 2026. We continue to drive progress across our three strategic mutually reinforcing pillars, growth, competitiveness and operational excellence. Starting with growth, our new business win rate for the year was over 30%, reflecting disciplined bidding and a strong competitive position in our core markets. In particular, we secured around £3.5 billion of defence contracts, underlining both the strength of our defence platform and our ability to deliver complex mission-critical services. We also ended the year with a £12.1 billion pipeline, the highest we've seen in a decade, and which again reinforces the strength of the opportunities that we see ahead. Turning to competitiveness, we've strengthened our delivery quality and our efficiency. Margin progression reflects that discipline, as do the partnerships that we've secured, such as with Mubadala in the Middle East. In Asia Pacific, our portfolio optimisation and productivity performance, along with the disposal of our Hong Kong business, has made the region sharper and more competitive, helping to grow margins year on year, despite the end of the Australian immigration contract. Under operational excellence, the rapid integration of MT&S has been a major achievement in six months. We've transferred almost 1000 new colleagues into the organisation, aligned systems, embedded common ways of working and began to win new work together. MT&S has strengthened our defence platform with deep simulation, mission training and satellite ground and network capability. Across the wider portfolio, our contract retention rate remains high at over 90%. At the same time, we're building a safer, more engaged organisation. With safety incidents reduced by 22% year on year, colleague engagement sustained at 70 points for the third consecutive year, as well as continued colleague engagement. And these results reinforce the quality and dedication of our people. Supporting them, investing in their safety and wellbeing and ensuring that they have what they need to succeed remains a core business imperative. It's central to how we deliver for our customers and how we will retain more business. This focus on our people, our culture and how we operate is also being recognised externally. During the year, our performance has been acknowledged by a range of independent organisations. but the standout for me was being named as Britain's most admired companies. That recognition reflects not just what we deliver, but how we deliver it. The strength of our leadership teams, our culture, and the trust we build with our customers and the communities in which we work. Ultimately, it reinforces that we are building a business our colleagues are proud to work for, our customers are proud to partner with, and our investors can have confidence in. grounded in strong performance and responsible delivery and doing the right thing always because it's always the right thing to do. Our performance in 25 demonstrates consistent progress across key financial metrics. Over the last five years, we've delivered revenue CAGR of around 5% and profit CAGR of around 11%. Over the period, we've doubled earnings per share to 16.93 pence, and over the same five-year period, we've also demonstrated disciplined capital allocation. Of the £1 billion of cash generated, we've invested in targeted M&A and returned surplus cash to shareholders, again as demonstrated this morning with the announcement of a further £75 million share buyback. Not only does this reflect our approach to good capital allocation, but it also showcases the sustained progress that we've made over the last five years. As a business, we are more increasingly predictable, more competitive and well positioned to convert opportunities into sustainable long-term growth over the years ahead. And with that overview, I'll now hand over to Nigel.
Thank you, Anthony, and good morning to everybody. Let me take you through the financial performance. Let me take you through the performance for 2025, a year in which the group has demonstrated strong momentum despite a number of anticipated headwinds. Revenue increased to £4.9 billion, up 3% on a constant currency basis, reflecting good underlying performance and the benefits of the MTNS acquisition. Organic revenue growth was up 1%, in line with where we guided the market. And it's been led by double-digit organic growth in defence, partially offset by a reduction in UK and Europe and Australia immigration revenues. Underlying operating profit was £272 million, which is up 1% on a constant currency basis. The margin of 5.6% remains in the middle of our target range of 5% to 6%. and reflects execution discipline and productivity improvements offsetting the Australian immigration contract exit and higher national insurance costs in the UK. And return on invested capital continues to be strong at 26%. It's worth remembering that the significant part of invested capital relates to goodwill and acquisition intangibles. And we run the business using just 0.1 billion pounds of operational invested capital. which emphasises the capital-like nature of our business model. And I'll now move on and provide more colour on the operational performance for each of the regions. So, starting with North America, who delivered another strong performance and continues to be an important contributor to the group's growth targets. Revenue increased by 10% to £1.46 billion, driven by 4% organic growth and a 9% contribution from the MT&S acquisition, partially offset by a 3% adverse currency movement. Organic growth was led by defence, where significant order intake achieved in 2024 is flowing through to this year's revenue. We saw a higher activity across defence personnel services, mission training and increased demand for IT network and infrastructure services for the US Navy. Underlying operating profit increased 5% to £144 million, including a 3% negative impact from the weaker dollar. The margin stayed around 10% despite the impact of mobilization of new defense contracts and the one-off MT&S transaction integration costs of £6 million. These costs were anticipated, and as the contracts mature, margins will recover, supported by increased efficiency and portfolio mix. Order intake was £1.4 billion, of which 90% was from defence, which is a robust outcome after the exceptional order intake in the second half of 2024 and the temporary delay in contract awards caused by Doge and the US government shutdown. Win rates remained healthy, 37% of new business, reflecting our customer relationships and competitive positioning. Our rebid win rate was a bit lower than normal due to the loss of a low margin traffic control contract. The pipeline in North America has more than doubled to £5 billion and once again Defence continues to represent the majority of the pipeline of new business opportunities. Integration of MT&S has been successful and is delivering early benefits. In the first seven months of ownership, it contributed £9 million of operating profit after absorbing transaction integration costs. The strategic fit is proven to be exactly as expected, expanding our defence footprint by deepening customer access and enhancing our mission training and satellite communication capabilities. So moving on to UK and Europe, our largest division, which delivered another strong performance. Revenue increased 6% to £2.58 billion, driven by 5% organic growth and a further 1% contribution from the acquisition of EHC, a German immigration services business. Organic growth was supported by the mobilisation and ramp-up of several major defence and citizen services contracts, including armed forces recruitment, marine services for the Royal Navy, continued progress on electronic monitoring and some complex case management contracts. As expected, we've seen lower revenues in our immigration business from harder borders in Europe and the ongoing shift in accommodation mix in the UK. Although revenues in the UK have not reduced the rate we expected at the start of 2025. Underlying operating profit was £149 million, flat on last year, and margins remained healthy at 5.8%. While there were anticipated headwinds from immigration and higher UK national insurance costs, these were offset by improved contract performance elsewhere in the division, including stronger contributions from citizen services and defence. Order intake was excellent at £3.7 billion, delivering a book-to-bill ratio of 145%. Win rates were also very strong, winning 60% of new business bids and 97% of rebids. The wins included several strategically important long-term awards, particularly in defence, which accounted for 60% of the order intake. Finally, the UK have done a good job of not just winning new business, but also rebuilding the pipeline back to similar levels to what we saw at the end of the year at 5.8 billion. End of last year, sorry, at 5.8 billion. The pipeline includes a broad range of opportunities across defence, justice and immigration, and citizen services. So turning to Asia Pacific, where the division delivered a resilient performance with good cost control, improving contract performance, and some early progress on growth. This resulted in an improved margin despite the expected reduction in revenue following last year's Australian immigration contract exit. Revenue for the year was £655 million, down 18%, recognising the 12% organic decline asserted primarily with immigration contract exit and the disposal of our Hong Kong business and some adverse currency movements of 5%. Underlying operating profit was £24 million, up 3% on a constant currency basis. The margin increased to 3.7%, up about 60 basis points. And the improvement demonstrates the effectiveness of disciplined cost control to right-size the organisation and improved operational performance. We also delivered some important new business wins across the region. Notably, we secured a six year contract for Justice Transport Services in Victoria. Rebid win rates were strong at 91% and Defence performed particularly well with key extensions, including the Royal Australian Navy's warfare training contract. There were also some important rebid and extension wins in citizen services. And looking ahead to 2026, we have a good pipeline of both new business opportunities and rebids and extensions of existing work across defence, justice and citizen services. There's still work to do during 2026 to further build the ASPAC pipeline, but we're encouraged by the progress made in 2025. And turning now to the Middle East, where we have restructured the business in Abu Dhabi by entering into a strategic partnership with the Sovereign Wealth Fund Mabadla. This involves transitioning facilities management contracts into the new joint venture and combine Serco's capability and Mabadala's network in the Middle East to expand access to large, high-quality opportunities across the UAE. Whilst it is still early, we are encouraged by the breadth and scale of opportunities we are seeing. Revenue for the year was £177 million, a reduction of 18%, driven by 12% organic decline, a 4% drop from accounting impacts of Mubadala partnership and a 2% adverse currency. The organic revenue reduction primarily resulted from the conclusion in 2024 of our low margin earned navigation services contract in Dubai and lower variable project work compared with the prior year. Underlying operating profit decreased to £13 million from reduced organic revenue with margin decline to 7.1%. We continue to focus on operational efficiencies, disciplined bidding and improving the commercial resilience of the region. During the year, order intake was £150 million and we've rebuilt a £0.5 billion pipeline of new business opportunities. So now let me move on to cash and cash generation in 2025 was again strong, with cash flow of £290 million, representing trading cash conversion of 112%. And this maintains our track record since 2019 of averaging over 100% of profit converting into cash. And the result reflects the disciplined approach we take to timely and accurately billing to our customers, enabling them to pay us promptly. Our 2025 cash flow has also benefited from a higher than usual level of mobilisation activity and the associated deferred revenue. Adjusted net debt increased to £206 million from the £100 million at the end of last year. This increase reflects the £245 million acquisition of MT&S, along with capital we've allocated to buybacks and dividends, partially offsetting the strong cash flow. The group continues to maintain a very strong financial position with the year-end leverage of 0.7 times EBITDA, below our target range of one to two times. So on that, let me turn to capital allocation, which is in the context of strong cash generation, capital-like business model, and the maintenance of a strong financial position. Our number one priority continues to be to invest in organic growth, We further strengthened our business development capabilities and our operational delivery platform and mobilised major new contracts across defence, citizen service and justice and immigration. These investments contributed to our record £12.1 billion pipeline and strong order intake for the year. Reflecting our confidence in the group's financial position and outlook, today we are recommending a full year dividend of 4.5p per share, an 8% increase on last year. And our third priority is M&A. This year, we saw the successful completion integration of the MT&S acquisition, and we continue to assess additional strategic bolt-on M&A opportunities, where they enhance our capability, expand our customer access, and strengthen our competitive position. And finally, where we have surplus capital, we commit to return this to shareholders promptly. We completed a £50 million share buyback in the second half of 2025 and today announced a £75 million buyback to be executed in the first half of 2026. Inclusive of this newly announced buyback, Serco will have returned in total around £650 million to shareholders through buybacks and dividends since 2021, demonstrating our commitment to discipline capital returns when our balance sheet strength allows. So let me finish off with our updated guidance for 2026, which is larger than changed from our pre closed statements. We expect revenue to be around £5 billion for 2026, resulting in organic growth of 3%. The increase in revenue reflects a full year contribution from MT&S, ramp ups of major contracts and the impacts of new businesses were in late 2024 and throughout 2025. These upsides offset the expected reductions in the immigration activity in both UK and Australia, which we expect to account for around a 3% organic headwind. We expect underlying operating profit of around 300 million over 10% higher than this year. This includes the continued positive impact of MT&S, productivity improvements across the group and the full year effect of multiple contract ramp ups transitioning into steady state operations. This result in a margin around 6% placing us at the top end of our medium term target range. And net finance costs are expected to increase to around £52 million, reflecting the annualised impact of interest on new debt issued to fund the MT&S acquisition and the cost of the new £75 million share buyback. We expect free cash flow of around £160 million, which is unchanged from our pre-closed statement, and remains consistent with our medium-term ambition to convert at least 80% of our profit into cash. And finally, adjusted net debt is expected to finish 2026 at £165 million. which is slightly different to the initial pre-closed guidance of 150 and reflects the new £75 million buyback offset by the better than expected closing net debt position at the end of 2025. And with that, I'll hand back to Anthony.
Nigel, thank you. Let me now turn back to the strategic and operational progress that we've made during the year and the opportunities that we see ahead. As you know, 25 has been a year where we've taken a much more deliberate approach to the areas where we see the greatest opportunity. We refined our strategic direction to prioritize the geographies and sectors where Serco can deliver the most value, achieve the best growth and where our capabilities are strongest. The underlying demand for the essential services that we deliver remains remarkably robust at a time where external environments can often feel volatile. Across all of our geographies, we continue to see strong structural drivers that reinforce the need for trusted partners, like Serco. In North America, budgets in the sectors in which we operate continue to grow. We've remained resilient but not complacent through the changes in administration priorities, including the impact of the US shutdowns. However, some short-term slowness in the system could persist into the first half of 26. But to remind you, we have more than doubled our pipeline in the US to more than £5bn this year. In the UK and Europe, financial pressures remain acute but demand drivers will endure. including rising defense spending and sustained pressure on the asylum and migration systems which reinforce our view of the long-term demand drivers in the middle east modernization plans are creating new opportunities as well as likely increases in defense capability and security protections and in asia pacific encompassing the indo-pacific region defense and infrastructure needs remain significant albeit balanced against tighter budget conditions But these dynamics point to an addressable market of over £900 billion. Whatever the precise figure is, it is a large and growing market with clear opportunity for us to increase our share over the years ahead. In defence, investment pledges remain substantial. The US has proposed a defence budget of over $1 trillion. The UK has committed to 3.5% of GDP. and European nations continue long-term, multi-year rearmament and capability improvement programmes. In immigration, volumes may fluctuate, as Nigel has just alluded to, but long-term global pressures, conflict, geopolitical uncertainty, climate-related displacement and economic instability continue to drive underlying demand. And in citizen services, technology is driving efficiency, yet the services that we deliver still depend on people, which means our exposure to displacement from automation is limited more than you might expect. Instead of eradicating our work, technology gives us an opportunity to enhance our offering further, making our services more efficient and improving the services to the citizens who depend and rely on them. And finally, to labour the point in this context, our role is to deliver critical mission public services. It helps shield us from sudden political policy reversals. Even during dynamic shifts in government policy or legislation changes, our operational roles remain essential for the delivery of critical services. So while the headlines may suggest rapid change, the reality is demand for what we do is anchored in long-term structural demand. So when you look across our international platform, the picture is clear. I said that we needed to become more focused on the areas with the greatest opportunities, being more selective and deliberate about the capabilities that we're developing, and clearer about the geographies and sectors where those capabilities can best be deployed. North America, the UK and Europe remain our most addressable and scalable markets. The US federal government is the largest buyer of goods and services in the markets in which we operate in the world. In the UK and Europe, governments face sustained financial pressure and are looking for partners who can deliver better outcomes more efficiently. And whilst those markets do offer us the greatest growth potential, that does not mean that we don't value our presence in Asia Pacific or the Middle East. We absolutely do, and we expect both of those regions to grow over the coming years. But we will be disciplined about where we deploy our capital and focus our growth potential. Across the group we're therefore doubling down on the sectors where structural demand is the greatest and where our capabilities, track record and recent progress positions us well for sustainable growth. Our enhanced defence platform, our deep operational expertise in justice and immigration and our breadth of services across the citizen services portfolio gives us a greater level of differentiation. Over the past year, we focused the organisation on removing some inefficiencies, reducing complexity where we can and sharpening our ways of working. This has laid the foundations to make us more agile, more focused and more competitive for the years ahead. I also said we needed to make more progress in systemising the sharing of best practice across the group, enabling us to leverage capability, learning and execution at scale, and I'll touch on some of the examples of those shortly. But at its core, Serco delivers mission-critical services where outcomes matter most, deploying people, technology and partners to perform at scale. So I'm now just going to touch on three of those growth sectors. So turn into defence, the area where we see our greatest long-term opportunity. Defence now accounts for around 40% of the group's total revenue, inclusive of our joint venture operations. We're deeply embedded in the armed forces of the UK, the US and Australia, and we deliver critical services in the Middle East for the Australian Defence Force and provide essential training in New Zealand and Canada. We also deliver naval capability in Europe, including the maintenance of the mine hunter vessels in Belgium. We bring over 60 years of proven delivery supported by increasing technological capability to defence. In fact, that journey began at RAF Filingdales, where today we operate and maintain the UK early warning radar, a critical part of both the UK and US missile detection system. Our teams provide 24-7 uninterrupted support to this national security asset, demonstrating the depth and experience of Serco's expertise and long-standing credibility. And we're also working in Greenland, modernising and maintaining assets for the US Space Force. And we're active across all Five Eyes nations and throughout several NATO countries, where defence spending continues to rise, with 24 members of NATO now exceeding or meeting the 2% of GDP spend targets. So whether it's training, personnel readiness, platform modernisation, or future-focused autonomous capabilities, such as our USX-1 Defiant Vessel, Serco is a critical partner to governments as they deliver on their national security ambitions. So a core differentiator for Serco is our ability to support the full life cycle of personnel services for the military. From recruitment to health, fitness and readiness to training, housing and family support through to veterans transitions. In the UK with the prime contractor for the Armed Forces recruitment program. The program brings together a set of best in class partners under a single Serco delivery model. And it's a flagship example of where our capability in programme management, governance, stakeholder engagement and operational delivery truly differentiates us. In the United States, we continue to deliver the Army's holistic health and fitness programme, H2F. Mobilised last year, it's the largest human optimisation and soldier readiness programme ever fielded at scale. In Australia, we train the ADF maritime officers in a simulated environment at HMS Watsons Bay, leveraging our MTNS capability alongside the established expertise of our broader defence teams. And through our joint venture VIVO, we maintain 27,000 military family homes and more than 20,000 defence buildings across the UK, a vital part of the personnel experience and family ecosystems of the military. All of this reflects, I believe, the strength of our personnel services platform that we've built. A platform that is increasingly cross-geography, increasingly tech-enabled, and increasingly central to the defence strategies of our customers around the world. And this platform of capability allows us to take our end-to-end offering to customers internationally. Turning now to justice and immigration, a sector where Serco brings deep operational expertise and a scale of delivery that is critical to government in the UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Across the countries where we do operate our immigration business, we support and accommodate over 100,000 asylum seekers and refugees, reflecting the breadth of complexity of demand in which we help governments manage. That demand is driven by long term global pressures, sustained migration flows, rising complexity in case management and the need for safe, high quality and efficiently run detention facilities. While policy decisions can cause short term fluctuations in migration volumes, the underlying demand signals remain strong. Border crossings remain a challenge and governments need agile, experienced operators as they seek innovation across both immigration and justice services. Our position across the criminal justice system is equally strong. Our unique role gives us a comprehensive understanding of the current and future likely challenges. This year we operationalised additional prison capacity in the UK, helping to alleviate pressures across the custodial estate. We also now monitor 28,000 individuals in the community on behalf of the Ministry of Justice in the UK, which is a scheme that has proven to reduce reoffending by around 20%. So in a sector where trust and safety and performance matter profoundly, our operational track record positions as well. One of Serco's real strengths is our ability to operate an international platform of best practice, taking what works well in one part of the world and applying it elsewhere to lift performance, efficiency and outcomes across our global operations. A good example of this is our prisoner escorting contract. By moving expertise from the UK to help our colleagues in ASPAC, win the justice transport services contract in victoria australia demonstrating how our capabilities can be deployed internationally more broadly our end-to-end role across justice from courts and secure transport to custody and prison management to electronic monitoring in the community gives us a system-wide insight that few other providers can match That perspective enables us to transfer proven operating models across geographies with confidence. The same platform approach applies in immigration. Across Europe and the UK, our teams have built deep capability in complex case management, safeguarding vulnerable people and running high performing detention facilities. These learnings now shape how we design and deliver services globally, creating the consistency that customers expect across borders. The platform approach combines people, processes and technology developed in one geography, strengthened with lessons from another and deployed wherever needed, giving us the scale and assurance our government customers rely on to evolve their systems of management. Moving on to citizen services, demand is often driven by budget pressures. The need to modernise infrastructure, digital integration and rising public expectations. Delivering services directly to the citizens remains an important part of our strategy. Its breadth gives us the agility to respond to shifting government investment priorities and to direct our capability towards the areas of greatest demand. Across this sector, we deliver directly services that touch millions of people's lives every day. We support people navigating complex welfare and employment systems, helping long term unemployed individuals back into work. We also run high assurance citizen operations, including helping people access much needed health insurance in the United States, delivering essential services with speed, accuracy and compassion. So while citizen services can be considered to be broad by nature, I consider that that breadth and diversity is a strength. It enables us to adapt quickly, respond to evolving customer needs, and bring our capabilities to the areas where we can add the greatest value. As we look across the Citizen Services portfolio, a defining strength of our ability is to blend delivered impact with technology enabled efficiency. In North America, our work for the Centre for Medicaid and Medicare Services shows what this looks like at scale. For more than a decade, we've operated that business and we've now deployed advanced automation and digital tooling to improve the quality and speed of the essential services, managing around 10 million customer notices a year, embedding AI technologies and completing complex case management three times faster with compound efficiency of more than 500%. And in the UK, we're applying the same innovation and those services that we depend on to help people through the Restart programme. That employment programme, we've piloted our technology to equip job coaches with new AI-enabled case management tools. It's reduced administration time by around 75%. improved case note quality by nearly 20%, and most importantly, allowed our people to provide human-centered support to help the people back into sustainable employment. That combination of people who deliver with care, expertise, which is coupled with technology that accelerates important and impactful outcomes is what makes our model distinctive. It's how we help governments deliver better outcomes at lower cost. and how we will continue to transform essential public services that millions of citizens depend on. So bringing that together, the market dynamics across our sectors remain compelling. Structural demand is intensifying, driven by geopolitics and defence postures, fiscal pressures and the need for innovation, and those forces show no sign of easing. against that backdrop Serco's platform is well aligned to our customers priorities on the whole we operate at scale in mission critical services that governments rely on which provides resilience and underpins long-term opportunity we've sharpened our focus on the geographies and sectors where demand is strongest and where our capabilities are most differentiated That gives me confidence that Serco is well positioned to capture the growth opportunities in the years ahead. So to conclude, let me just reiterate my key messages. Our 2025 performance was strong and leaves us well positioned to deliver against our 26 guidance. We're advancing the organisation to achieve our goals and doing so with the same rigour that has underpinned our success over the past five years. That discipline across growth, competitiveness and operational excellence is what will continue to drive our performance in 26 and beyond. We're prioritising our investment in key growth markets and doubling down on the sectors where our differentiated capabilities and technical depth align with the strong structural drivers. So we're advancing the systems and leadership needed to scale our business for success, building a stronger executive team and aligning our leaders around a growth and performance culture. This gives me confidence in our ability to maintain well-governed momentum. Confidence that we are well placed as ever to seize on the opportunities ahead. And confidence that Serco will deliver as an agile, well-governed business, able to course correct when needed and to deploy the best talent to drive better outcomes for our customers, our colleagues and our shareholders. And I think we'll now move to Q&A. Do you want to go first?
