Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have formed a judgement, at the time of approving the financial statements, that there is a reasonable expectation that the Company has more than adequate resources to continue in operational existence for twelve months from the date of approving the financial statements. The Company is funded by a group loan and uses an ongoing overdraft facility to meet its day to day working capital requirements. Bunge Global S.A. has guaranteed the overdraft facility and has indicated an intention to provide financial support to the company for twelve months from the date of approving the financial statements. The Company's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance show that the Company will be able to operate within the level of its current facility. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and are satisfied that the ultimate parent company is able to honour the letter of support provided. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”

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
