- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in performance, show that the Company is able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least the next 12 months. The directors have reasonable expectations that the Company has adequate resources, with support from its ultimate parent undertaking and the wider group, to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In making this assessment, the directors have also considered the ability of the parent and the group to forecast and provide the necessary support. Therefore, the Company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The Company made no political donations and did not incur any political expenditure during the year.”

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
