Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The shareholders decided to cease manufacturing in Batley and take advantage of other manufacturing sites in the group, which means that the cloth for Joshua Ellis will be woven by the award winning Stanley Mills Weavers, the finished cloth being sold as Joshua Ellis Fabrics, a division of Luxury Fabrics. The accessories will continue to be sold as stock items, capsule collections and through our successful online business. We will exit the existing site between January and June 2026. Sadly there were redundancies post year end as a consequence of these measures.”
• “As noted in the Strategic report significant changes in the company's operations have been put in place. It is the shareholders intention that these changes will be funded through Group resources.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
