IFRS15 early adoption
Capita plc is today re-confirming its early adoption of the new revenue
standard IFRS15 from 1 January 2017, ahead of mandatory adoption on 1 January
2018. This is an accounting change and has no impact on the cash generation or
operating performance of the business.
Capita will therefore be reporting its half year results for the six months to
30 June 2017 under IFRS15, and will restate its 2016 results in accordance
with the new standard. Adopting IFRS15 requires additional preparatory work.
This and the restatement are progressing well, though IFRS15 adoption will
affect the timing of the publication of Capita’s half year results. An
amended reporting timetable is therefore outlined below:
13 June 2017 AGM statement and
trading update
7 September 2017 IFRS15 teach-in
21 September 2017 Half Year Results 2017
End Nov/Early Dec 2017 Pre-close trading update
1 March 2018 Full Year Results
2017
These dates will be published on www.capita.com/investors and further details
on the teach-in will be provided in due course.
