Appendix 1 - Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Group faces risks from a range of sources that could have a material impact on our financial commitments and ability to trade in the future. The Board of Directors has performed a robust assessment to determine the principal risks for the Group considering our risk context and with input from executive management. Effectively managing these risks is directly linked to the performance of our strategic KPIs and the delivery of the strategic priorities outlined on pages 16-19. Our principal risks are set out below with examples of management actions that help to control the risk. The Board recognises that certain risk factors that influence these risks are outside the control of management. The Board is satisfied that the principal risks are being managed appropriately and consistently with the target risk appetite. The set of principal risks should not be considered as an exhaustive list of all the risks the Group faces.

Appendix 2 - Directors' Responsibility Statement
Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have prepared the group financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union and company financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting
Standards, comprising FRS 101 "Reduced Disclosure Framework", and applicable law). In preparing the group financial statements, the directors have also elected to comply with IFRSs, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the
group and company and of the profit or loss of the group and company for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are required to:
-- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-- state whether applicable IFRSs as adopted by the European Union and IFRSs issued by IASB have been followed for the group financial statements and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS 101, have been followed for the company financial statements, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements
-- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the group and company will continue in business
The directors are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the group and company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting recordsthat are sufficient to show and explain the group and company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the
financial position of the group and company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements and the Directors' Remuneration Report comply with the Companies Act 2006 and, as regards the group financial statements, Article 4 of the IAS Regulation.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from
legislation in other jurisdictions.
We confirm to the best of our knowledge:
-- the financial statements, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of Hikma and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole
-- the Strategic report includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of Hikma and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that they face
-- the Annual Report and financial statements, taken as a whole, are fair, balanced and understandable and provide the information necessary for shareholders to assess Hikma's performance, business model and strategy
