No quantified guidance or forward-work balance was disclosed. The interim shape is informative, however: HY22 contributed 55.8% of full-year revenue but only 17.4% of NPAT, implying an H2 NPAT of roughly $0.3m on $2.9m of revenue – a materially higher-margin half. The release notes UK store sales reached 123% of FY19 levels, suggesting trading momentum was still building into period-end, but with no stated FY23 targets the durability of that H2 margin run-rate is not something this filing directly supports or refutes.

• Why did a $3.6m decline in trade receivables coincide with operating cash flow turning negative? Was there a write-off, reclassification, or change in group perimeter?
• What is the capex run-rate in FY22? It was not separately disclosed, so free cash flow cannot be derived.
• What drove the $1.1m New Zealand segment loss on near-zero revenue, and is it being wound down?
• What are the terms and maturity profile of the remaining $3.2m of borrowings, and how much is related-party?
• No dividend was declared; capital-return policy is not articulated.

This briefing cannot assess store-level KPIs (store count, same-store sales trajectory, franchisee health) or forward-year trading given no guidance or forward-work disclosure was supplied.
