- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The impact from the Russia/Ukraine conflict affected some customer schedules and restricted sales to the region, the Group has continued to be profitable and cash generative throughout and able to meet its liabilities as they fell due. The Company holds regular discussions with and has received confirmation from the directors of Ki Finance S.a.r.l, the group's major debtholder, confirming the intention of Ki Finance S.a.r.I to provide additional support to the Brooklands Topco Limited Group, including this Company, if required, during the going concern assessment period, a period not less than 12 months from the date of signing this report. After making enquiries and taking account of the factors noted above and on the basis of the Company and Group wide assessment of going concern and the forecast liquidity position for the 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements the directors believe it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.”

Significant events
- “During the course of the financial year, the Group undertook a modest restructure of the senior management team. The restructure as well as the closure of one of the Group's North American facilities lead to exceptional expenditure during the current year, which is not expected to reoccur.”

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
