Going concern

Affirmed

“As set out in more detail in note 2.4 to the financial statements, the directors have prepared forecasts for the company and believe that, after taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, the company will continue to have adequate resources to continue to meet its obligations as they fall due for at least the twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The directors therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”

Significant events

• “On 1 March 2024, the company formed part of a restructuring of the former Naylor Industries plc group. Naylor Drainage Ltd became a subsidiary of a new holding company, Naylor Drainage Holdco Limited.”
• “During 2024/25, the company completed its withdrawal from clay pipe manufacture and progressed a major redevelopment of the Cawthorne site, resulting in a focused plastic business with space and infrastructure to permit continued growth. Construction activity has resulted in an additional 4,000m2 of production space. In addition, we have built a new office facility at Cawthorne, more in keeping with a modern, growing business.”

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
