- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which the directors believe to be appropriate for the following reasons. The Company is dependent for its working capital on funds provided to it by GEA Group AG, the Company's ultimate parent undertaking. Those forecasts are dependent on GEA Group AG not seeking repayment of the amounts currently due to the group, which at 31 December 2024 amounted to £19,755,482 and providing additional financial support during that period. GEA Group AG has indicated that, for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements it will continue to make available such funds as are needed by the Company and, in particular, does not intend to seek repayment of the amounts currently made available. This should enable the Company to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months by meeting its liabilities as they fall due for payment. Consequently, the directors are confident that the company will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

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
