Audit & accounting basis

- PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company Directors are satisfied that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis, placing reliance on the letter of support, as from the perspective of the Company, its operations, risks and uncertainties are integrated with those of the Group and so having reviewed the Group's plans and available financial facilities, including the modelling of a severe but plausible downside scenario and available mitigating actions, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The Group's projections have also been stress tested, considering performance against prior year forecasts, the impact of a plausible increase change in interest rates and a reduced cash flow conversion achievement. Specific measures if determined necessary would help preserve cash and maintain sufficient liquidity to continue operations within its going concern forecast horizon.”
Significant events
- “Subsequent to the reporting date, the Company experienced a leadership change with the appointment of Chris Walters as the new Chief Executive Officer, effective from 6 January 2025. This transition follows the departure of Simon Paris, who served the Company with dedication and vision.”

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
