Affirmed

“The Company's long term finance consists of inter-company loan facilities. The Company's financial forecasts, taking into consideration the current environment show that the Company is expected to remain profitable and generate positive cash flows giving the Company the ability to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. As a consequence the directors believe that the Company is a going concern and is well placed to manage its business risk successfully. The Company has the financial support of the Refresco Group which has sufficient cash and liquidity to fund the operations if necessary and a letter of support has been provided indicating that it will continue to support the business to 30 June 2026.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
