The consequences of the pandemic were unpredictable and have at times tested our resilience. However, it is testament to the quality of our management teams, our employees and our financial prudence that we ended 2020 with an underlying operating profit. \n \n \n \n \n \n \"While the UK is returning to normality to the benefit of some of our UK based businesses, we have concerns about further waves of the pandemic across India, Bangladesh and East Africa. We do not believe that normal trading conditions will emerge until 2022, and some businesses will continue to feel the effect of the pandemic for some time thereafter.\"\n \n \n \n \n \n Financial highlights\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Year ended \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Year ended \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 31 December 2020 \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 31 December 2019\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n £'m\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n £'m\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Revenue \n \n \n \n \n 291.2\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 291.5\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Underlying profit before tax*\n \n \n \n \n 16.0\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 17.4\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Separately disclosed significant items\n \n \n \n \n (8.2)\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 4.9\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Profit before tax\n \n \n \n \n 7.8\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 22.3\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n (Loss)/profit after tax for the year\n \n \n \n \n (0.8)\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 15.1\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n (Loss)/earnings per share\n \n \n \n \n (181.0)\n \n \n \n \n p \n \n \n \n \n 300.5\n \n \n \n \n p \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Total dividend for the year\n \n \n \n \n 144\n \n \n \n \n p\n \n \n \n \n 144**\n \n \n \n \n p\n \n \n \n ...
