Audit & accounting basis

- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Brebners
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors consider that although challenges to trading volumes and revenue persist from global, EU-UK, and other geopolitical factors, this should not result in issues for the company as a going concern. Having made sufficient enquiries, and based upon the above, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue operating in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Subsequent to 31 December 2024 a sales contract with a significant customer ended. As a result, the turnover for the forthcoming year is expected to reduce from previous levels although the directors are seeking to increase activity with other existing customers and to obtain new customer opportunities.”

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
