- 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
- “The principal activity of the company is that of distributors of electrical products.”
- “Since the year end we have strengthened our regional management structure and whilst the costs of this will be reflected in the current year, the benefits will not accrue before our 25/26 year.”
- “The company continues to hold a significant cash balance and the company reported a pre tax profit of £1,564k.”
- “The company's strategic goals include growth and expansion through the acquisition of new branches.”

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
