THE UNITE GROUP PLC | Annual Report and Financial Statements 2022
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued
Section 5: Working capital continued
5.5 Provisions continued
Management have performed a sensitivity analysis to assess the impact of a change in their estimate of total costs. A 20%
increase in the estimated remaining costs would affect net valuation gains/losses on property in the IFRS P&L and would
reduce the Group’s NTA by 3.0 pence on a Unite share basis. Whilst provisions are expected to be utilised within two years,
there is uncertainty over this timing.
The Group has recognised provisions for the cost of these cladding works as follows:
