- 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, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “On 2 May 2024, the directors resolved to change the name of the company from Norman Global Logisitics Limited to Logicall UK Limited.”
- “During the financial year under review, the company's performance in the financial year to 31 December 2024 has increased, top line compared to the previous year with revenues up c.14.8% (pro-rated). This upturn is primarily attributable to global market conditions, resulting in increased prices, whilst specific disruptions in key logistical corridors, contributed to an increase in administrative expenses, as we managed challenging conditions for our clients, combined with the costs associated to rebrand and merge with Maltacourt Limited.”
- “The Board are particularly pleased with the integration of Maltacourt Limited and the benefits it can bring to our clients, both now and in the future.”
- “Goodwill of £20,034,607 arose in the year following the company's acquisition of Maltacourt Limited on 1 September 2024 and was recognised on the transfer of the trade, assets and liabilities of Maltacourt Limited on 31 December 2024”

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
