Financial outlook update
Mothercare plc ("Mothercare", "the Company"), the highly trusted British heritage brand, that connects with the parents of newborn babies and children across multiple product categories throughout their early life as parents, today announces an update on its financial outlook.
Mothercare was notified by the liquidators of Mothercare UK Limited (which entered administration in 2019), that imminently a further £0.8m cash dividend will be paid to a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. This wholly owned subsidiary is the secured lender to Mothercare UK Limited (in liquidation).
Whilst this is a helpful development it does not materially change the outlook for the business nor the matters disclosed in the announcement of 18 September 2026. At this stage the outcome of the review and the longer-term solvency of the Company remains highly uncertain.
