Affirmed

“For the year ended 31 December 2024, the company recorded a profit before tax of £7,802,214 (2023: £8,564,125) and had net assets of £60,464,462 (2023: £55,072,564). The current financial performance and forecasts of the company indicate that there are no material uncertainties that might cast doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Directors have taken into account the following considerations in their assessment: The current financial position of the company and availability of financial support from the group, should it be required, during the assessment period; The company's annual budgets, 'latest estimate' forecasts prepared during the year, and the three year 'Vision and Strategy Plan' which are revisited each year; The company's current activities, cash position and business plan; and, The company's cash flow forecasts for the period to 31 December 2026. The company forecasts continued revenue growth in the next financial year, and in future years thereafter in line with recent historic trends. Based on the information available, after making appropriate enquiries and considering the above factors, the Directors conclude that there is a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and meets its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, and for at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements. The Directors will continue to closely monitor the company's financial position and performance. Thus, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.”

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
