"The bar is getting higher and higher to enter as demand increases and number of spots increases less quickly. This will impact H2 2022 results." Can you elaborate what you mean by this? That it will be getting harder to be accepted into Codesmith? Can you explain your reasonin

Sure, so people are reporting the entrance bar getting more selective. For example, basic recursion is required, and OOP is required.
So there are a fixed number of slots, and presumably more applicants than can fit, so they are choosing stronger and stronger applicants.
They have added an in person cohort and have 4 cohorts now on a 7 week cycle. So they have been adding capacity, but presumably not as fast to server everyone.
So what this means is the incoming people will be more experienced and stronger than in the past, and will get better outcomes - both speed to outcome and compensation.
