Audit opinion

Going concern
Affirmed

“The Group and Company's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect their future development and position, are set out in the business review and future developments sections of the Strategic and Directors' reports. The Group participates in the Xerox Holdings Corporation centralised treasury arrangements and so shares banking arrangements with its parent and fellow subsidiaries. The Directors have obtained written confirmation of support from the Group's ultimate parent, Xerox Holdings Corporation and on the basis of this support consider that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future being at least twelve months after the approval of the financial statements. Thus the Company and Group continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Group's annual financial statements. Management has considered possible downside scenarios such current high inflation levels and the Russia/Ukraine conflict. 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 group's and 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. 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. However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this conclusion is not a guarantee as to the group's and the company's ability to continue as a going concern.”

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
