Welcome to everyone to Mitie's headquarters here in The Shard. Thanks for joining us this morning in person or online for our preliminary results presentation for the year ended March 20, 2024, FY 2024, as we refer to it. I was just thinking back, it's my eighth annual results presentation now for Mitie. As this cover says, FY 2024 has been another strong year of delivery for Mitie, and we're starting our new Facilities Transformation three-year plan with some good momentum. So just to summarize some of the key facts to start with, FY 2024 has been our third successive year of record performance, and completes the final year of our last three-year plan. Our financial performance has been strong, 11% year-on-year revenue growth, 30% year-on-year operating profit growth, and 29% year-on-year earnings per share growth. Our leading indicators are also encouraging, a 44% increase in wins and renewals in the year to GBP 6.2 billion total contract value. Our order book was up 18% to GBP 11.4 billion total contract value, and our pipeline of those in-flight tenders grew 27% to GBP 18.6 billion total contract value. Engagement indicators are also at record levels. Customer Net Promoter Score was +60, up 18 points, and that's a world-class level in B2B scores. It's the biggest year-on-year increase we've ever seen, reflective of our service delivery. Employee engagement also reached a new high, up six percentage points to 63% of our colleagues describing themselves as fully engaged, with 40,000 colleagues now taking part. And colleague attrition fell by a third to a low of 13%. It's this balanced scorecard that underpins our capital allocation strategy, gives us the confidence to continue to invest in our business, in business model and to increase returns to shareholders. M&A spend was GBP 66 million. That's three times more than we spent in the previous year, and we completed seven acquisitions. And subject, we returned GBP 114 million to shareholders, and subject to shareholder approval at next month's AGM, the board is proposing a final dividend of three pence per share, taking the full-year dividend to four pence per share, and that's a 30%-38% increase year- on- year and an increase in the payout ratio to 33%. So that's the big picture. Now over to Simon for more detail behind the results, and then I'll talk about the progress of our new strategy. Thanks, Phil. Good morning, everybody. Let's start with the headline numbers. As Phil said, we've reported a strong set of results for FY 2024. Revenue's up 11.2% to GBP 4.5 billion, driven by organic growth of 7.1%. Operating profits improved by 29.7% to GBP 210.2 million, underpinned by another positive performance from our margin enhancement initiatives. Margins increased by 70 basis points to 4.7%, and EPS is up 29.5% to 12.3p a share, boosted by the revenue growth, higher margins, and share buybacks. As Phil said, the board's proposed a final dividend of 3p a share, taking the total dividend to 4p, which is up 37.9% on FY 2023. And finally, we've had a free cash inflow of GBP 158 million, with average daily net debt of GBP 161 million. So moving on to cover the performance in more detail, and turning firstly to revenue, all divisions have contributed positively to the 11.2% growth in the year. Business services grew by 5.4% to GBP 1.5 billion as a result of strong growth in retail crime protection work, as well as pricing and acquisitions. These upsides more than offset the headwind from completion of the high-margin, short-term COVID and Afghan relocations contracts. Technical services revenue grew by 14.9% to GBP 1.3 billion, underpinned by projects growth, revenue from new accounts, and acquisitions. CG&D improved by 13.3% to GBP 938 million, reflecting the continued growth in projects work, the Landmarc consolidation, and pricing. Finally, communities grew by 14.9% to GBP 757 million from increased work in care and custody and, again, pricing. My next slide shows the key drivers of the revenue growth in the year, with the first block being the reduction in revenue of GBP 81 million for the completion of the COVID and Afghan relocations contracts. Next, we show GBP 194 million of growth from wins and losses, projects growth, and incremental growth on existing contracts. Revenue from wins and losses is broadly neutral, and the driver of the increase in this block is therefore GBP 189 million of incremental organic projects revenue. Pricing accounts for GBP 177 million of additional revenue, and when we combine these three blocks, total organic growth for the year is 7.1%. Finally, acquisitions contributed 4.1 percentage points of growth in FY 2024. This block includes the acquisitions we've made in the last 18 months, including RHI, GBE, and JCA, as well as the Landmarc acquisition, which added GBP 42.6 million worth of revenue for the year. Moving on to operating profit, which has increased by 29.7% to GBP 210.2 million, with all divisions making a positive contribution. Business services grew by 5.1% to GBP 97 million, with increased retail crime work and margin enhancement initiatives, more than offsetting the headwind from the completion of the high-margin public sector contracts, which I'll touch on shortly. In technical services, profit increased by 29.9% to GBP 44.3 million, with margin enhancement initiatives, projects growth, and acquisitions, more than offsetting the headwinds from cost inflation. Like technical services, CG&D profit grew significantly in FY 2024, up 34.4% to GBP 80.4 million. This increase was driven by the project's growth, as well as margin enhancement initiatives. CG&D also benefited from higher profits at Landmarc due to the improved margins and consolidation. Communities profit improved by 24.5% to GBP 39.1 million as a result of the higher revenue in care and custody, improvement on a loss-making PFI contract, and margin enhancement initiatives. Finally, the reduction in corporate costs contributed GBP 4.9 million to the improved profit, with savings coming from a range of initiatives across all of the head office functions. Next, we show the drivers of the profit improvement on a bridge, with the first block being the GBP 15.6 million pound reduction in contribution from the Afghan relocation and COVID contracts. Margins on these contracts were particularly high, compensating for the risks involved in standing them up and potentially winding them down at short notice. Next is a GBP 19.9 million pound improvement from projects, net wins and other trading, where projects growth and higher profits from existing contracts more than offset the cost of our ongoing technology investments. This block includes GBP 13.5 million pounds of incremental projects profit at a higher than average margin. We delivered GBP 40.3 million pounds of incremental profit from margin enhancement initiatives this year, with the largest component being the TOM program, which generated GBP 27.9 million pounds worth of savings. As a reminder, the TOM Programme includes the outsourcing of finance, HR, and IT, as well as the consolidation of properties and help desks. The balance of the savings came from Interserve synergies, the Coupa rollout, and the operational excellence programs. Next, we show the net hit of GBP 6.2 million to the bottom line from inflation, which I'll come back to shortly, and finally, the GBP 9.7 million of inorganic profit from acquisitions. This final block includes GBP 5 million of profit from the Landmarc consolidation, offset by GBP 3 million of costs from G2 Energy, which we acquired from the liquidator without any order book or revenue. The GBP 48 million increase in profit to GBP 210 million was a key driver of the 29.5% improvement in EPS in FY 2024. EPS also benefited from lower finance costs, where we're seeing the benefit of the 10-year debt that we locked in at 2.9%, as well as the closure of the invoice discounting facility and higher returns on cash deposits. Corporation tax of GBP 37.9 million reflects an effective tax rate of 18.9%, with the increase in the headline rate of corporation tax offset by the recognition of tax losses that we acquired with Interserve. The share buyback program resulted in a 66 million reduction in the weighted average number of shares, contributing six percentage points to the overall 29.5% increase in EPS. Turning now to inflation and starting with the impact in the year. CPI has been falling in FY 2024 and labor markets remain competitive, but we continue to attract a good supply of resources, and our attrition rates have significantly improved. These factors have helped us to limit the impact of inflation on our cost base to GBP 183 million, reflecting a 7% increase in both wages and materials compared to FY 2023. In terms of pricing, our contractual protections and customer relationships again enable us to pass on the majority of the cost increase to our customers, resulting in only a GBP 6 million reduction in profit, significantly better than we forecast at the start of the year. Looking ahead to FY 2025, based on the OBR forecasts, we expect CPI to fall towards 2%, but we expect wage inflation to remain at around 5%. CPI is one of our contractual protections against inflation, so if it does remain below wage inflation, then we'll see the bottom line hit to the P&L increase to around GBP 10 million-GBP 15 million in FY 2025. Turning now to cash. We generated a free cash inflow of GBP 157.6 million in the year, with the key driver being the operating profit of GBP 210.2 million. Other items was the GBP 37.6 million outflow of cash and was largely made up of the costs of delivering our margin enhancement initiatives, as well as acquisition-related costs. The acquisition costs included a non-cash accrual of GBP 9.5 million, relating to future potential future earn out payments for acquired businesses. Next, we have a cash outflow from working capital of GBP 4.3 million, which is the net effect of continued growth in projects, offset by process improvements. These improvements included the rollout of the Coupa system, rationalization of the supply base, and alignment of our VAT groups, which collectively resulted in a one-off improvement of around GBP 25 million. CapEx, leases, interest, and tax was GBP 72.5 million, and GBP 9.8 million pound lower cash outflow than in FY 2023. Together, these movements resulted in the free cash inflow of GBP 157.6 million. Our capital allocation actions account for GBP 148.7 million of cash outflow, which I'll come back to shortly, and lease liabilities increased by circa GBP 45 million as we expanded our EV fleet and extended the average duration of our leases. Finally, at the bottom of the page, we see the overall increase in net debt of GBP 36.7 million. This increase results in a closing net debt of GBP 81 million and an average daily net debt of GBP 161 million, with the average leverage ratio of 0.6 times remaining below our targeted range. Debtor days are consistent with FY 2023, and creditor days have increased as we rationalize our supplier base through Coupa and move them onto standard payment terms. ROIC was 26.4% in FY 2024, and net assets increased to GBP 474 million after distributing GBP 114 million of dividends, share buybacks, and market purchases for employee share schemes. Our strong balance sheet and ongoing free cash flow generation underpin our capital allocation decisions. In FY 2024, we've increased our dividend payout ratio to 33%, proposing a total dividend of 4p a share. We've spent GBP 20 million purchasing shares in the market for incentive schemes and completed GBP 66 million of acquisitions in high-growth sectors. And finally, we've acquired 58 million shares for GBP 50 million through our ongoing share buyback program. Since we started the program in FY 2023, we've acquired 134 million shares at an average price of 81p. Looking ahead to the next three years, the dividend will stay within our targeted 30%-40% payout range. We'll continue to purchase shares for all employee share schemes, and the acquisition spend will flex to the opportunities identified in any given year. Finally, we'll continue to return excess cash to shareholders through buybacks, with an expectation that our leverage will increase to between 0.75x and 1.5x EBITDA. Our capital allocation policy was a key element of the guidance we gave at the capital markets event in October, as were the financial targets that we show on the left-hand side of this slide, where we said we'd reach GBP 5.6 billion of revenue by FY 2027 at a margin of at least 5%. As a result of this higher margin, we said EPS growth would outpace revenue growth over the period, and by FY 2027, we're forecasting GBP 150 million a year of free cash inflow. We've taken a positive step forward in FY 2024, with revenue growth of 11.2% and margin growth of seventy basis points, accelerating our progress towards the FY 2027 targets. We expect to continue to make good progress in FY 2025, although our journey to FY 2027 won't be linear. Revenue growth will be in the high single digits, boosted by some large contracts already won in Q1, as well as good momentum in the projects business and growth from acquisitions. Margins will benefit from our margin enhancement initiatives and projects growth, but will face headwinds from cost inflation, higher margin contracts lost in FY 2024, and mobilization costs. And as Phil will explain shortly, we're continuing to make a significant investment in both our tech platform and our sales capability. As a result, we expect margins in FY 2025 to remain consistent with FY 2024. EPS in FY 2025 will be impacted by an increase in our effective tax rate to 25%, as the Interserve tax losses are now fully utilized, as well as higher finance costs as our leverage increases. In completing the FY 2025 guidance, we expect free cash flow to be lower than FY 2024 as the projects business grows, consuming working capital, both tax and lease payments increase, and we incur mobilization costs for some large contracts. However, we still expect to generate free cash flow of more than GBP 100 million, and ROIC will remain well above our 20% target. And on that note, I'll hand you back to Phil. Okay, thank you, Simon. So I think in summary, as Simon said, we've made good progress in FY 2024, and we're on track for FY 2025. So now I want to turn to our Facilities Transformation strategy, which we unveiled at our capital markets event last October, it was now. So you'll recall our summary slide, where we said the world of facilities management is changing with new needs emerging, taking our industry from facilities management to technology-led, data-rich Facilities Transformation, transforming the built environment, transforming the lived experience, and transforming insights and decision-making for our clients. Meeting these new needs is at the heart of our new strategy to deliver growth in key accounts, growth in projects upsell, growth and growth through infill M&A, and it's a strategy with clear financial targets and our customary capital allocation disciplines, as Simon outlined. So what's been going on since we launched our Facilities Transformation vision last October? Well, well, firstly, and encouragingly, we're seeing demand for Facilities Transformation accelerating across each of our service lines, due firstly to regulatory changes. Over 80% of the commercial real estate in the U.K. does not meet minimum energy efficiency standards. Our clients' ambitions for renewable energy is growing, as is a greater burden of reporting. Martyn's Law, the Protect Duty Bill, shifting responsibility to our clients to ensure public safety, will be one of the biggest pieces of legislation to impact the security sector for decades, and fire and security and regs for the use of chemicals are also tightening. And the biggest behavioral changes in decades are driving Facilities Transformation. Hybrid working is now the norm. Employees expect a modern, collaborative, safe, and healthy working environment. Facilities Transformation is also accelerating because our customers need to improve productivity, extending asset life cycles, upgrading only when cost efficient to do so. The need to manage retail crime, costing the U.K. retailers over GBP 3 billion a year these days, is also accelerating Facilities Transformation, as is the need to flex and automate cleaning. And finally, certain sectors have their own unique Facilities Transformation agendas already announced in defence, in power, in retail and data centers, and in the NHS. So in summary, these are the long-term structural growth drivers for Mitie, and they won't, in our view, be affected by any change in government. So eight months on from launching our vision, we're now beginning to execute our detailed plans, and we carry good momentum into FY 2025. Key accounts have performed well, more Amazon fulfillment centers, a new contract for the British Army in Germany, which went live on the first of June. Increased scope at Landmarc and extensions at GSK, DWP, and JLL. New marquee wins, where FM and project spend could be over GBP 30 million per annum, included financial services group Phoenix, Aena, Spain's national airport operator, and since the year-end, we've won some further really good marquee names, including EY, Halfords, Aldi, and Lidl. Of course, projects is also a key contributor to our Facilities Transformation strategy, and our revenue here grew 37% last year. Data center fit outs for Kao Data, solar PV installations at NATS, across the David Lloyd Estate, power upgrades and battery connections to the National Grid, and increased branch security for Lloyds Bank and for many retailers. These are just to name a few of the projects we did last year. We're particularly pleased with our infill M&A and the high-end engineering capabilities of JCA and sophisticated security capabilities of RHI and GBE, which we're now offering to our wider clients. We're now poised to accelerate growth. Our ambition over the next three years is simple: to grow faster than the wider FM market and to extend our market share leadership through, firstly, key accounts growth. We've invested in a new sales team structure with new incentives and new leadership, with more consistent bidding processes, working more closely with marketing to develop bespoke sector and customer-driven sales strategies. We're extending our account-based marketing approach to target new individual clients. Adding just two new marquee IFM accounts per year over the next three years could add some GBP 200 million-GBP 300 million of revenue. We're also investing heavily in our CRM functionality and growing out our business development capabilities. Mitie has a strong bidding capability, and we now strive to be a more sophisticated business relationship developer. We're targeting growing our pipeline by 30% over the next three years. We're putting more resources into renewals. I mentioned we had a record year of wins and renewals in FY 2024, but we still lost the DEFRA contract on price and Rolls-Royce to a global bid. These were long-standing relationships, so this was a fairly painful experience for us, which, as Simon said, hits our FY 2025 earnings number. So, so we've taken on some key learnings. SAMs, our strategic account managers, are a key growth driver for Mitie. Last year, we grew our top accounts by 11%, but we have to invest more in talent, training, and incentives so that the in-contract teams take more ownership of both innovation during the contract life and retention at the end of the contract. Secondly, we'll accelerate growth through projects upsell, building out, firstly, our consult and design capabilities. For example, helping our customers develop their carbon reduction strategies or redesigning their working environments. This is higher margin work and will help push our overall projects margin above 9%. We're launching a project center of excellence in Birmingham, supporting our 2,500 projects professionals, applying consistent construction, design, and management standards with common BIM and PMO tools. We expect our projects business to be over GBP 1.5 billion per annum by FY 2027, converting more of our current GBP 3.3 billion projects pipeline and capturing greater margin by delivering more of the work ourselves. I see Mark Caskey nodding there, so obviously he's clear on what his targets are going to be. Finally, on M&A, we'll accelerate growth through infill M&A, with a focus on deepening our engineering, our decarbonization, and our fire and security capabilities. We've a healthy pipeline of opportunities for M&A, with a couple of transactions now nearing completion. While 90% of our U.K. business is in the U.K., we do aim to grow our Spanish business. It's a GBP 12.6 billion pound FM market in a growing economy with consolidation opportunities. Having doubled revenue in the last three-year plan, we can believe we can double it again over the next three-year plan... Taken together, these are the specific investments and interventions which underpin our high single-digit growth ambitions. Excuse me. Our second priority is to leverage our scale to secure a cost-to-serve advantage and to drive margins above 5%. As we said at the capital markets event, with over 60,000 colleagues in the U.K., we are the clear market leader, and it is the largest and most dynamic FM market in Europe. We're number one in each of our chosen core service lines. And although we've delivered significant margin enhancement initiatives already, as Simon, as Simon showed, new technologies such as AI, new IT systems to deliver more straight-through processing, and new productivity analytics all offer new savings opportunities. Looking at our in-contract cost structures, we still find different parts of the business doing similar things in different ways, and I expect to see more consistency in self-delivery of work, sharing resources across our, our accounts, and greater productivity improvements. We've more to do on route density planning across our mobile workforces. We've separate public and private sector mobile engineers because of different vetting requirements. We have a separate mobile fire and security team and a separate mobile water team. Through standardizing our workflow deployment systems and investing in cross-training, we expect to see time to travel to the job and time on site to fall and time on site to increase, and that'll drive major savings. We'll complete the rollout of our digital supplier platform, Coupa which has been incredibly successful for us already, to drive procurement efficiencies in tech services. That's the division with our biggest demand on the supply chain, and they're not using Coupa right now. As also, we'll be rolling out Coupa in our new acquisitions. Repetitive admin work and even some engineering design work is now being offshored, and that will continue. And although colleague attrition has fallen to record low levels, we still have to recruit and train some 9,000 colleagues annually. That's a significant cost burden on our business model, as is absenteeism. So taken together, and this is before the headwinds of investment and investments that Simon mentioned, I see gross margins in our major contracts increase in the gross margins, while overhead as a percent of, while overhead as a percent of revenue falls through operational leverage, and that's exactly what happened in last year's numbers. This virtuous widening of the jaws, as it were, gives us a clear path to a margin that should exceed our 5% target. So let me turn now to our favorite drawing, the Mitieverse. Our next strategic imperative is data-driven intelligence. In the parlance of propTech world, Mitie is becoming an aggregator of workflow and workflow data in the built environment. But what does this really mean, and what does it really look like? The technology foundation layer is where all our core technology platforms come together, where our core workforce and workflow data is held. Our data layer is our data lake, overlaid with functionality of Gen AI, cloud-based systems, and now Microsoft Fabric. Our data is a unique asset for Mitie. Millions of data points from our customers providing insight on how their built environment is performing. These insights then drive our Facilities Transformation product layer, enriching our service line capabilities across intelligent engineering maintenance, intelligent projects, intelligent security, and intelligent cleaning and hygiene. So let me just give you a quick whistlestop tour of the product layers we've built since the capital markets event. Starting with intelligent engineering maintenance, we hold extensive histories on individual assets and asset classes across many customer estates. By developing a diagnostic dashboard, applying AI and machine learning to our data, we can now predict and prevent asset failures, carry out remote fixes, reducing the numbers of those engineer visits, driving down costs, improving productivity. And as we benchmark asset and estate performance for individual customers across their peer groups, we believe that we can help them make more informed decisions about their own capital spend. Intelligent Projects captures Mitie's deep skills in renewable energy, and backed by data, develops pathways to net zero for our customers, reporting Scope 1, 2, and 3 data in real time. That's something Mitie already has today. Benchmarking emissions, pinpointing the project upgrades for our clients that Mitie's team can then deliver. Intelligent Projects also lifts the growing burden of carbon reporting and disclosures for our customers. Intelligent Security pioneers the development of security resources in response to risk and threat intelligence. Pulling vast incident and shrink data using AI analytics, we can identify patterns and trends that predict threats for our customers, responding by deploying resources where and when they're needed, stopping incidents from happening, minimizing the cost of theft, and improving employee and public safety... and providing the police with data-rich case files to secure convictions. Finally, Intelligent Cleaning and Hygiene, flexing service to meet demand, taking footfall analysis, square footage data, near field communication tags, shift patterns. AI ensures resources are targeted on the specific areas within a building that needs the most attention, responding to spillage incidents that pose an HSE risk, optimizing replenishment of consumables, again, reducing costs. So this is the Mitieverse in action now, and if you do have time at the end of the presentation to grab a coffee and head into the tech hub around the corner there, see the Intelligent Technology team at work. We've got Ninja, we've got Dan there, and Caroline, who can show you a little bit more about what we're doing with live data with our clients today. So if data-driven intelligence, if you like, are the brains behind our Facilities Transformation strategy, our heart is being recognized as the industry leader in Facilities Transformation. Maintaining the best-in-class ESG ratings, the largest EV fleet, the first company in our sector to deliver net zero. Leading in social value with the largest apprenticeship scheme in our industry, launching a new engineering graduate scheme, a first for Mitie, putting people on the first rung of the ladder of work. That's what makes a difference across the country, improving our line management skills with a new academy, supporting and caring for our frontline colleagues, and making sure that everyone has an opportunity to be rewarded more for doing a job well done. You don't get great employee engagement scores and win UK Top Employer six years in a row by luck. You get it by supporting our frontline colleagues day in, day out. And you don't achieve an NPS of + 60 or beat BP or Diageo to be marketer, B2B marketer of the year by chance. You get it by attracting some of the best people in the industry. And you gain governance leadership by putting in new SOX-like risks and control frameworks a year ahead of U.K. regulations. How we run the business, being proud of the impact we have on society, this is our greater purpose and what makes us really tick at Mitie. And that's why getting external recognition for what we're doing is an absolute key part of our strategy. Finally, we've put in place bespoke development plans, a new incentive scheme for each exec team member to deliver this new three-year plan. Building a better-run business does require investment, but these are the investments which will make Mitie an even more successful company and a company to be proud of. So in summary, our new Facilities Transformation plan for FY 2025 to FY 2027 is now fully underway. We're moving from strategy to execution, and we're making investments. Investments in sales and marketing, in acquiring new skills through M&A, investing in cost efficiencies, in data and intelligent products, and in management capabilities. And it's these investments that will deliver our new three-year plan targets. Number one, by accelerating growth through key accounts, growth projects, and infill M&A to drive high single-digit revenue. By number two, by building a cost-to-serve advantage, delivering a group margin beyond our 5% target, supported by the continued delivery of cost savings and increasing margins from our projects division. Number three, by investing in data-driven intelligence. And number four, through investing in management leadership. Taken together for our shareholders, this three-year plan means a free cash flow of GBP 150 million by FY 2027, returns of invested capital in excess of 20%, despite the uptick in M&A and despite the higher corporation taxes that we now face, a progressive dividend, and the proactive return of surplus capital to shareholders via buybacks, ensuring we keep leverage within and not below, which is where we've currently been, within our desired range of 0.75x-1.5x EBITDA. As I said at the start, our facilities management strategy has begun. It's stretching and, I hope, exciting, in equal measure, but it's one that we believe will once again deliver for our shareholders. With that, I look forward to updating you on our progress during FY 20 25, and let's turn it over now to Q&A. We need some mics and some names. There's Sam. Sam, to start with. Hi. Morning, guys, it's Sam Dindol from Stifel. Three questions from me, please. Firstly, obviously, eight months on from the CMD, and you're trading very well, has your conviction on any of your medium-term targets changed at all in terms of maybe slightly more positive than it was eight months ago? Secondly, on projects, obviously very strong growth there. Is there any sort of insight into where that's coming from, and is the margin on those projects as you would have anticipated, about that 9% mark? And then finally, on M&A, appreciate a couple of deals close to completion, but any commentary on the wider pipeline and competition from PE or whoever in that industry? Competition? Competition for deals from private equity. Deals. Any change in dynamics there? Yeah, yeah. Okay. Let me take the targets, and you chip in a little bit, Simon. Then Mark, maybe grab a mic, and Mark Caskey can talk a little bit about projects and what we're on with, and then the M&A pipeline, I'll touch on. Pete, maybe you could chip in as well a little bit. But look, I think it's too early to change the targets at the moment. What you're sort of saying is around our conviction. I think our conviction, we're very confident about what we've already laid out, but eight months on, it's for us too early to be updating any sort of targets. You know, we've got to see inflation, as Simon said. We don't know how that's going to quite play out right now, but of course, demand for labor, labor increases in terms of demands from sort of unions are higher than the inflation adjusters that we've got in our inflators. So we've got to see, we've got to see that play out. We've still got to deliver some of the margin enhancement initiatives that we've laid out this for the, for, for the future. So it, you know, it's too early to tell, and I think, as we said, FY 2025, because we're investing and, and, you know, we had the hit from the loss of those two contracts, and, you know, we've got some further inflation risks. It's too early to sort of say how it's gonna, how it's gonna play out. Would you agree? Yeah, I totally agree, and we're not coming off any of our FY 2027 targets, Sam. We see, as I said in my piece, FY 2025 as a year of progression towards those FY 2025 targets. I'll just start to pick up on projects, and then we can see if Mark's got anything to add. So we're not up to 9% margins yet on projects. We said we'd get there by FY 2027, but we have seen the growth in projects in FY 2024 at higher margins than the rest of the group. So we're pleased with that, and we expect that as we continue to build our capabilities through acquisitions over the course of the next couple of years, that we'll get to that 9% by FY 2027. Mark, on generally- ... Simon. So, Sam, in terms of where we've seen a lot of demand coming through, I think it's probably three areas. First is around decarbonization. Our clients are wanting to decarbonize their real estate portfolios, and we're seeing an increased amount of, I guess, I guess, revenue opportunity in that space. Secondly is in terms of improving working environments, commute-worthy space. Clients are often looking at how can we modernize the places of work. And then lastly, and just generally in terms of modernizing assets across our client portfolios, and whether that's in terms of data centers, hospitals, retail facilities, manufacturing facilities. So, for example, one of our clients won a new production opportunity, and we sat alongside them over a four-month project to actually expand their production capability. So, there's some real positive revenue drivers coming through, and I think the other point on margin enhancement is by, through acquisition, we can self-deliver more. And by definition, we can actually self-deliver at a higher margin capture than maybe the old way we actually delivered some of our project works. And then finally, on M&A, yeah, we have a couple of things, sort of. It all seems to take longer than we think. I mean, there is an M&A, there is a PE sort of bid out there, and of course, if you start to see interest rates fall, perhaps they'll become more aggressive. So we see it as quite a, quite an opportunity at this moment to sort of push on, and we'd like to be closing more deals in this year. And as you know, I mean, the last time we did a deal, announced a deal, was September—it was November last year. And as you get to the end of a three-year target, it's quite hard to get returns in the last year of a three-year plan. So we really want to get off to a fast start in this year. There's some quite interesting opportunities. I think we've got to be, you know, we've got to be prepared to pay up. I think we've been pretty good at bottom fishing, but I think we've got to be, you know, targeting what we want to add, where we want to add real scale. And we should have the synergies above what a PE bid can pull together. Pete, well, how are we getting on with all our deals? So just a couple of things. We appointed a new head of M&A last year, who's been brought in to help us identify opportunities consistent with our strategy, particularly in the decarbonization space. And what we're trying to do is identify opportunities that are not yet up for sale. Our clear preference is to do deals on a bilateral basis rather than on a fully competitive basis. And if we can do that, then that obviously avoids the risk of being in a competitive pressure with PE, who are potentially prepared to pay more than we are. The other thing is clearly demonstrating that for owner-managers, Mitie is the right place for them to bring their business to, and the success of the companies that we have acquired over the last few years, we think is a clear testament to that. You know, we have a very strong culture with our Gazelles, and we think more people will find that attractive going forward. It's a really good point, that, about the owners. But if you look at Rock Power, is more, more than double the revenue in the last year. So Custom Solar is more than double revenue. JCA have got some huge orders coming through, and at GBE, Jason, I think are doing pretty well as well. So, yeah, we're very, that's a really good point about they're the best advocates for, for, for us, in terms of coming to Mitie and then helping you grow, grow your business more. So thank you for those questions. Yeah. We had one there. Was it Adam? Is it... No, no, no, I can't see him. Hi. Hi, Adam from Liberum. A couple of questions from me, if I may. Firstly, I think maybe just picking up on the M&A theme. You mentioned that there's a consolidation opportunity in Spain. Clearly, most of your, or all your acquisitions so far have been in the U.K.. Is that something that you'd explore to kind of invest in that territory? And the second question is just on the pipeline. Obviously, very, very strong growth there to about GBP 19 billion. I just wanted to clarify, does that include framework agreements? And if it does, are you estimating your share of the frameworks, or is it the framework as a whole? Okay. So we have made an acquisition in Spain. We bought a security company, and it's doing really well. And we were over there a couple of months ago because it had been confined to operating in the Azores and is now in Madrid. So there's a lot of regulation around licenses, and we are actually looking at another security company that is in Catalonia because they have a separate set of licenses. So we have done a deal in Spain already, and one of the deals that Peter's working on at the moment is another one in security. Because we want to try and build Spain out from what is essentially a cleaning offer into an FM offer, and that's the whole point. The other thing about the framework... Yes, your question is a good one. So for example, there are significant prison operator frameworks. So we put the whole of the framework into the pipeline because we don't know. It's just we know it's live, we know it's gonna come up, and we know how much it is, and it goes into the pipeline. We're not making any indication of our expected success. Although you'll have seen that we won Millsike. Alice, do you wanna have a quick word about Millsike? We're very excited about that because that's a 10-year. And this is the other thing about, you look at the order book, a three-year deal has, you know, 1/3 of the weighting of a 10-year deal, and a lot of these government contracts are, you know, becoming longer. I think government's recognizing that if you really are going to work with a partner to transform an estate, a three-year contract isn't long enough, and so that's a new trend, which I probably should have picked up. We were with our biggest client, DIO, recently, Defence Infrastructure, and they're looking to think about now, how can we extend, you know, the length of contracts? The Landmarc contract, which we won, retained, was a longer contract again. I think that's the trend we're seeing a little bit more of, Alice. Yeah, Millsike is a brand-new prison. It will be completely carbon-free, so a good investment in the government in the future of that industry. We're very proud to be a part of it. Be a very large site, and as Phil said, it will be on long terms. It's a really good example of where Mitie has put its faith in and invested in growth in an industry over a relatively long period of time, with the first new entrant into British prisons for a number of decades. It's a relatively small market. So the trust that's been placed in us to run that very extensive new facility, I think, is a real, a real marker for our ability to demonstrate that we are willing to stay in the game and demonstrate what we're capable of doing, and we're looking forward to mobilizing that right at the end of this financial year. And I think it's a good point, finally, on the frameworks, 'cause there's a lot more frameworks we're getting onto. In the past, we wouldn't have had the credibilities or credentials to be on the capital frameworks. So there's some big capital frameworks now, Mark, that we're on. And again, that provides a flow of opportunities. And as we say, you know, you've gotta be in it to win it, so if they're on the... If it's there, we're gonna have a go at it. Next question. Thanks. Tom from Investec. Tom. Yeah, just picking up on, on Sam's point, actually, on, on sort of the project piece. GBP 19 billion market, you know, potentially higher margin moving forward. Long run, I guess, where, where do you think that can get to in terms of percentage of, of group revenue? Just to try and get an idea as to, you know, what the split might look like beyond the end of, FY 2027. That was a net margin. Is that what you want? It's revenue. Yeah, yeah, percentage of revenue, just in terms of what it could be as a percentage of the overall group. And then just on those two contracts that you sort of picked up on before, I think it was DEFRA and Rolls-Royce. Can you just give us a bit more color as to, you know, why those two contracts were sort of a bit away from you? And any more sort of detail on that would be helpful. Thank you. Okay, why don't you pick up projects, Simon, and I'll pick up the DEFRA and the Rolls-Royce? Sure. Thanks, Tom. So, the guidance that we gave at the capital market stage, Tom, was that we expected our projects business to get to about, GBP 1.5 billion by FY 2027, and that would be, therefore, out of a GBP 5.6 billion revenue base, by that point. And we're, as I said to, in response to one of the previous questions, we're standing by. We're confident in, the targets that we set out for FY 2027, so we're not changing that. You know, I mean, I don't wanna over, sort of overemphasize it, 'cause we've, you know, we've won a lot more than we've lost, as it were. But yeah, DEFRA is a, is, well, obviously a government contract, and so it... You know, you have to be on the game around price, and you have to be on the game around the, the, the way you bid. And this is one of the changes that we've made is we have put in a new sales team for the, for government bidding, because we've, on, on, on playback, we felt there was a lot more that could have been brought into that bid that was not brought into the bid, and the reason for that is because it, without getting into a lot of detail, it was the ex-Interserve sales team. And in that time, you know, Mitie's a much bigger animal, and there wasn't the reach out as much as we'd have liked to have seen into the Mitie mothership. And so one of the changes around sales is to ensure we've got one head of sales that's overviewing all of them, and we've consolidated sales teams. So Alice's sales team and the central government defense team, all the government sales team, they're all under one and under our most successful sales leader, who's coming from the business services side. So that would've been the point there. And the point I was making about the... You know, if you, the, you can't just win a contract and just sit on it for five years and then rebid it. You've got to be innovating throughout to make it harder for a new entrant to come in. If you bid it based on how you bid it five years ago, then you're gonna miss it. So that was a real learning for us. The interesting thing is we're still doing work for DEFRA. I mean, we do project work for them. We're doing all their EV work, so it's an interesting thought, isn't it? And that's the same point about Rolls-Royce. Rolls-Royce is a completely different kettle of fish because Rolls-Royce bid on a global basis. It's the, you know, it came from CEOs ex-BP. BP had a global provider, JLL. The procurement team of Rolls-Royce are in Chicago, and JLL are based in Chicago, so close relationships, you know, in North America, and they went global. And we couldn't do that. But again, the interesting thing there is that we're still doing the security there. We're doing the higher-end smart maintenance. We're doing the landscaping, and we're doing the waste, and we're also doing projects. We've done about GBP 20 million of projects, and we're carrying on doing projects, so we're still an approved provider of projects. So I get... Those are-- So they're not all as bad as you think, and it just, you know, they... We've got to build, keep building those relationships, and it's it goes to my last point as well. The pr- the pr- and it's a-- to tee in for Simon. The project offer of Mitie is unique in our industry. You know, you've got FM providers, but they don't look at it the same way with the same eye, eye to upgrade facilities. And I had lunch yesterday with a new client. I won't say who it is, but... And they're in a building that's been 20 years old, and we've just got the FM, and they're talking to us now about office fit-out. And that's the key. When we won NATS, we won the FM, but we're doing the project work. We're doing the solar work. And that's unique to us, is the sell-through of projects. If you take FDIS Scotland and Northern Ireland, that was a basic maintenance contract for military estates in Scotland and Northern Ireland, which is the smallest piece of the pie that we got as a new entrant. That's a GBP 30 million base contract. We did GBP 90 million of projects last year. So that is what's driving our growth. It's not just, it's not FM, it's facilities transformation. Was there a question about the project, wasn't there? No, I answered the projects question... I think, which is GBP 1.5 billion out of GBP 5.6 billion by FY 2027. Chris? Chris. Morning, Christopher Bamberry, Peel Hunt. I've got three questions, please. You mentioned that apart from changing the sales structure, you'd also changed incentives, so a little bit more flavor on that would be helpful, thank you. Sorry, say that again, Chris. You mentioned you'd changed some of the sales incentives. Yeah. Just a little bit more on what you've done there would be helpful. Secondly, could you give us a flavor of the areas or the activities which have the greatest opportunities within the pipeline? And finally, under the three-year plan, you're targeting about GBP 15 million per annum of savings through the margin enhancement initiatives, your thoughts on this year, and I'm guessing that most of that's going to come from the TOM, but are there other areas where you're gonna have you know, benefit savings as well this year? Thank you. Can you do that as well, Simon? Take the last one. So, yeah, I mean, look, on incentives, our incentives were quite – they were slightly selfish in a way, that the individual got the money, and we want to try and broaden it, so more people had skin in the game, and that was the point about the SAMs. The SAMs, the strategic account managers, need to be involved in sales. And it's interesting, and I, well, I'm not going to say what it is, but one of our very large clients, we've just renewed for another till 2030, and that sale was actually driven by the SAM because the SAM was all over the client. And so we've got to get the SAMs much more engaged in sales. I think we've put more money in, Jason, haven't we, overall? And you, you've, you're the sales commission guru here, but what I would say, and it answers your second question, the best pipeline we've got is in business services, in Jason's team. We've got a big retail pipeline. We've got some big cleaning opportunities. And what we're trying to do, and if I'm being frank, our thinnest pipeline is in tech services. Okay? So we've got to use the skills that have been applied for a period of time, building relationships with non-clients for two to three years in the knowledge that when they do come up, we're not strangers to them. And Kevin Tyrrell now is running all of the sales. You know, he's put in some new incentives to that as well. Yeah, I think what we've done, we've invested in the sector lead position as well to really start to identify the target addressable market for us to really highlight what are the big game changers for us in terms of contracts, and we started to see some good early signs of that. And following on that theme, that we're a sales-led organization, they have as much responsibility and accountability in building the pipeline to make it far more easier for the sales team to deliver a compelling bid. And you alluded to earlier, Phil, that the primary responsibility of a SAM is to win, grow, and retain that account. So I think the fact that we brought the sales teams and the sector lead teams together, and shared, I guess, the benefit and the commission pots from the sales team to the overall operational team and sales team is really gonna... Well, it started to help drive that growth already. It's interesting, when you look at the targeted addressable market, we have some really strong sectors. We're really starting to get into the sectors, and that's why I was talking about sector-led strategies and sector-led products. So the product you sell to a hospital, you know, can be very—it might be cleaning, but it's sold in as a different product for, let's say, in Amazon. So you're trying to drive sector. And we find, as we really start to dig into the the data analytics, we've got some really strong sectors, but some of the sectors we haven't really got after yet. So that's part of the target. But in terms of our...y ou know, for the next 12 months, until we really get the pipeline going in tech services, we're probably, probably gonna over-index on more wins out of business services. Secure, so security and cleaning is we have a very strong offer. Shall I pick up on the GBP 15 million per year of savings? So, to answer your question, Chris, yes, we said GBP 15 million per year in the capital markets event. We might do a little bit better than that in FY 2025. As you know from our numbers in FY 2024, we've done better than we expected in FY 2024, and that's through the range of activities that we outlined, so offshoring and outsourcing, IT, finance, and HR, consolidating property, and then driving savings from a third-party perspective through the implementation of Cooper and then through all of our operational excellence savings. My expectations, we look ahead to FY 2025, is that the TOM program, to your point, will continue, and we'll continue to see some savings coming out from that next year. We'll shift the balance a little bit, as we said we would do at the capital markets event, rather than the sort of more overhead focus, that we've had, within the TOM, and that'll be driven partly by the tech investment that Phil outlined, in the presentation before. So we'll become more efficient, we'll have better data, and we'll be able to drive savings out of that. But we'll also continue to focus on third-party savings. We've still got around 9,000 suppliers across the group, so there's still opportunity to go after there to, to drive further savings. And if you, if you've got a minute, go and have a look at the cleaning, intelligent cleaning hygiene in the hub. You know, if you take a client, we know which—If they've got multiple sites, we know which is the most productive, how much is being cleaned per square foot by part of, let's say, you know, part of a building, the loos versus the corridors versus the whatever, and then how it compares to different sites and why. So you get some—you're getting some really interesting data, and that's what I meant by technology. The other piece of it, if you look to the Cooper, and tech services is probably half of our procurement slate, maybe a bit less, and that's not on Cooper yet. Okay? But everything else has gone on Cooper. And we just put Germany only; it only came on on the June 1st. We've got Cooper. It's a really good system. And what it... That point about the structural working capital savings is, as we had, it's not by not paying our suppliers. The old game was you didn't pay your suppliers till, you know, two months or a week after the year end. We don't do any of that now. We pay when it's due. But what we were finding is that some subcontractors were sending us invoices predated. So a week, it already had a week on it before it landed on our desk. So we were paying it earlier than we needed to, but it's when it's delivered; that's when it gets the stamp on it, and we pay it 60 days later. Now, the other, the other thing we had, for VSMEs, SMEs, the small medium enterprises and voluntary, we pay 30 days. But actually, we found we were paying a load of quite large subcontractors on 30 days as well. We didn't need to. So it's that level of data and accuracy that we've got that really, really, drive savings, and I think there'll be—I think when we get a grip of tech services, and it's fair to say tech services, you know, they'll, they'll get any supplier from anywhere to do anything, and we've—it's got to be a lot more, a lot more rigorous. Anything else? Last one. We've done an hour. We've missed, we missed Keane. He's not here today. No. Okay. Yeah, last one here. Yeah, sorry. I'm Mark Harrison, Dark Act. Just gonna ask, so close to the election, any discussions with Labour, in terms of, you know, insourcing and stuff like that? It's the first question for government contracts. Are they, are they still staying, still staying sensible? And also, any contracts you got caught up in, any hiatus ahead of the election? Thanks. Good question. I mean, we have got my whole, Labour's policies on all of the, different points about, you know, a lot of stuff. I mean, I spent a bit of time, as many CEOs have done, just, you know, talking to them and getting to know them. Yeah, Ed Miliband used to be the energy minister when I ran British Gas, so I know him well. And, you know, he was, you know, leading the Labour Party, he was 42, he's now 52. He's, they've, they've got a bit, he's got a bit more experience and sees what sort of work can work and what doesn't work. And Rachel Reeves and Starmer seem, and I'm not making a political point at all, quite sensible in the understanding of the need to invest in infrastructure and create jobs. And so that, when, when I ran British Gas, the GMB and us, we were really close because we were always trying to create good jobs and good training schemes. And so things like the apprentice levy, everyone, you know, we give half our apprentice levy back to Treasury. If you ask the people who designed it, they'll tell you privately, it was, it was designed that way, so you couldn't spend it. The only people who spend their apprentice levy are consultants. Why is that? Because you can put somebody through an MBA on the apprentice levy, but there are so many hoops and you know, hurdles to get a technician on an apprentice levy. We want to convert a lot of our gas engineers, who are skilled, to do solar fitting. It's only a three-month training. They've got to be on an apprentice levy for 12 months, so they can't just count. There's so many rules. So Labour, I think, have had a quite sensible approach to that. They've got a sensible approach, in my view, to things like, zero-hour contracts. We don't have anybody on zero-hour contracts. They've got a sensible approach to fair pay. I mean, the problems we have on low pay are all in government contracts. We lost a small contract in Whitehall Security because we bid it at London living wage, funnily enough. It was awarded at minimum wage, the lowest pay you can get, and they are the front, you know, the first impression you'll get as you go into a major government department. So I think there's some positives in there. I think the... This is my other chart, which I quite like, because this is the... You know, there's a whole Rwanda thing, and we were. I think the lines are drawn on that. But this actually is a chart around returns generally from the U.K., and it's on the web, it's on the website. But returns, you can see returns have been falling a lot. It's got nothing to do with Rwanda. This is before Rwanda, and I think Labour are actually thinking they've got to do something about more returns. It might not be to Rwanda, but more returns. So even that may not change a lot. And I think the conversation we have with Labour is about... You know, people talk about outsourcing, but we don't think of ourselves as outsourcing. We're experts in engineering, we're experts in how to deploy, clean, and efficiently, we've got great scale, and we're experts in security and risk management. That's it. I mean, and that, if you want that, and you're, you know, you're a hospital, you've got a problem if you're gonna try and become an expert suddenly in that stuff. So I don't, you know, I'm not convinced it'll be a major change. The only thing we've seen, to your second point, was that a couple of bids are in flight at the moment that will get potentially delayed. Most of those are ones we've already got, so they don't really... It doesn't bother us in some ways, but, there's a couple of big ones that probably got pushed back a bit, Pete, but, but nothing material. Okay, I feel like you need a coffee. There'll be coffee at the back. And as I say, there's the team there. If you do want to have a look at what we're up to, it's, I recommend it. It's quite interesting. Thank you for listening. Thank you.
