Audit opinion

Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have assessed the effects and impact of the current economic environment on the Company's operations, financial resources and in particular, the going concern assumption. As of 31 December 2024, the Company has made total comprehensive income of £838,000 (2023: £18,361,000) and has net assets of £145,571,000 (2023: £144,733,000). The directors have prepared monthly cash flow forecasts for both a base case and a severe case. In both scenarios, the Company is projected to remain in a net asset position and to have sufficient working capital to continue trading and meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. In addition to its operational cashflow, the Company has access to a group cash pooling agreement with AIG to address potential cash shortfalls.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
