Audit & accounting basis

Accounting basis: FRS 102
Reporting scope: Standalone (parent only)
Auditor: Kingswood LLP
Audit opinion: Unqualified (clean)
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

“Revenues in 2024 at £72.1M were ahead of the previous year by £3.9M or 6%, with year-on-year revenue growth now achieved in each of the last five years”
“Operating Profit of £3.13M, a decrease of £0.41M or 12% compared to 2023.”
“Enigma changed their Working Capital provider to Cynergy Bank in quarter four this year, having partnered with Bibby Financial Services for six years.”

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
