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, including review of management's forecasts, available facilities, covenant headroom and other supporting evidence, we have not identified any material uncertainties that cast significant doubt on the group's or the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date the financial statements are authorised for issue. The directors have assessed the group's ability to continue as a going concern and, having reviewed forecasts, bank facilities and other information, concluded that the group has adequate resources for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, the financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-03-31 vs 2024-03-31

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
