- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the company or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the company's financial position means that this is realistic. They have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its abili”
Significant events
- “Turnover of £498.6m in 2024, relating entirely to the company's human pharmaceutical business, has risen significantly from £346.2m due to significant volume growth in diabetes and respiratory products, a lower rebate percentage for the new Voluntary Scheme for Branded Medicines Pricing, Access and Growth (VPAG) compared to its predecessor and, accrued income in relation to overpaid output Value Added Tax on historic rebates paid by the company.”
- “Net assets increased from £45.3m to £56.9m as a result of higher stock holding in 2024 driven by customer demand and sales growth.”
- “The new VPAG commenced on 1 January 2024 (replacing the Voluntary Scheme for Branded Medicines Pricing and Access (VPAS)), as part of the scheme the company is required to pay a rebate based on a percentage of sales to the Department of Health and Social Care.”
- “The first-tier tribunal (Boehringer Ingelheim Limited vs The Commissioners for His Majesty's Revenue and Customs [2024]) decision successfully concluded in the company's favour and, since the tribunal, the tax authorities have been granted an appeal. The company deems there to be a sufficient probability that any successful appeal by the tax authorities is low.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
