“This set of results shows us over-delivering on targets we set at IPO while setting the stage for the next phase of our growth,” said Thomas Ryder, CEO.

In the year we have deepened our relationships with existing customers and secured new customers across both existing and new geographies, all while continually broadening our ranges, formats, and flavours.

“With solid progress behind us and encouraging trading trends continuing, we are focused on key opportunities with a view to continuing our ambition to become the world’s most trusted and innovative sports nutrition, health, and wellness brand.”
