Firstly because inflation isn't even close to equal across all sectors, and the festival is much more exposed to some sectors than others.

Thirdly because they may be looking to put a bit extra in the bank to cover them through the 2026 fallow year - we know from the accounts that GFLs rainy day savings were pretty much wiped out during the COVID enforced fallow years, but don't know the current situation yet.
