- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Cash flow forecasts show a positive trend in liquidity, which is based on historic data and future outlook and expectations. The directors are confident that the company has adequate reserves and resources to continue operations for the foreseeable future, being at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, and is well placed to manage its business risk successfully despite the current uncertain economic outlook. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Net sales in the year ended 30 September 2024 amounted to £40.8m (2023 - £57.6m) a decrease of 29% from the previous year. This decrease is largely due to a higher than average turnover in 2023, brought about from carried over sales orders from the 2022 financial year linked to supply chain difficulties, and an in general lower market demand.”
