Adjusted EBITDA was £10.8m, down 5–5.3% year-over-year, and profit before tax fell 41% to £6.4m, mainly due to £4.6m in non-cash FX losses and £1.3m in exceptional acquisition costs.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
