Net changes in fair value

At 30 June 2025 16,105 Level 3 financial liabilities relate to deferred contingent consideration payable, valued using the net present value of the expected future amounts payable. The key inputs are management- – – 16,105 approved forecasts and expectations against the criteria of the deferred contingent consideration to set expectations of future amounts payable. The deferred contingent consideration is reviewed and revalued at regular intervals over the deferred contingent consideration period (refer to note 26). The fair value is sensitive to the change in management- approved forecasts, which relate to revenue and AUM projections for future periods, however, at each reporting date, the relevant management approved forecasts are deemed to be the most accurate and relevant input to the fair value measurement. 21.
