- Going concern
- Affirmed
“During the 2024/25 financial year we renegotiated our loan from LBS; as part of this restructuring, LBS agreed to significantly reduce annual loan payments for a period of ten years, providing Mountview with the opportunity to re-build its reserves. The Trustees have reviewed Mountview's current and forecast cash resources and consider them to be sufficient to cover the working capital requirements of the Charity for at least 12 months from the date of signing this financial report and financial statements. For this reason these financial statements have been prepared 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
