Note 17. Related party transactions
For fiscal 2024, the Company purchased $8 million (2023: $27 million and 2022: $22 million) of delivery, installation and related administrative services from companies that are, or are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of companies that are, controlled or significantly influenced by a Ferguson Non-Employee Director. The services were purchased on an arm’s-length basis. In December 2023, this related party relationship ended. As such, services provided by these companies during the second half of fiscal 2024 did not constitute a related party transaction. No material amounts are due to such companies.
