- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The ultimate parent company, Flutter Entertainment Plc., has formally indicated that Group entities will not seek repayment of intercompany balances owed to those entities by the Company for at least the next twelve months from the approval of these financial statements. The Directors have no reason to believe that the parent company will not be in a position to provide the support referred to above and therefore, despite the net current liability position of £6.7m (2023: £5.6), the company has no external debt financing and has cash in hand, at bank of £2.6m (2023: £3.9m), as at 31 December 2024. As such, they have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

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
