- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have reviewed the company's future working capital, cash requirements and revenue projections... They are of the opinion that the 2025 forecast... show that the company should be able to operate within its current level of cash and working capital, without the requirement for any external finance for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least 12 months from approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “A business decision was made to close the Dior Boutique in Covent Garden on 31st May 2023. Currently there are not any plans to open a new Boutique.”
- “The group is following closely the evolution of the situation in Ukraine and Russia. The consequences of the conflict and of international sanctions against Russia, as well as the sanctions from Russia against European countries cannot be precisely evaluated at the moment. No impact of this conflict have been identified or reported.”
- “In 2024, the company focused on asset upgrades and invested a significant increase in media coverage. These initiatives, while beneficial in the long term, contributed to a cash deficit for the year.”

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
