# The Group restated its statement of cash flows for FY20 to exclude certain bank overdrafts from cash and cash equivalents. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand under certain circumstances, but not unconditionally repayable on demand, have now been excluded from cash and cash equivalents and cash flows associated with these bank overdrafts are now shown as cash flows from financing activities. The restatement relates to banking arrangements that form an integral part of the Group's cash management.
