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

• “Demand began to recover during the year despite the ongoing war in Ukraine and inflation effects. Turnover increased by 14% and the business maintained raw margins of 48% as energy-related costs began to fall and offset increases in raw material prices. The Company was able to reduce employment costs despite persistently high inflation, and this combined with the recovery in turnover resulted in a significant improvement in results for the year.”
• “The Company is investing in more efficient machinery in 2025 to supply a further recovery in demand, and the business is benefiting from lower energy prices, however ongoing high inflation and tax rises are driving some increases in employment costs, and turnover is not expected to recover sufficiently quickly to produce an improvement in operating results during 2025.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
