“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.

Significant events

• “On 31 October 2024, a sale of the trade and assets of a subsidiary undertaking, Valtris Advanced Organics Limited was completed, including disposal of the subsidiaries Valtris Advanced Organics Belgium NV and Valtris Advanced Organics Maastricht BV. This resulted from a downturn in trading performance over the past 2 years and indications of long term impairment issues.”

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
