Going concern

Affirmed

“At the end of the year the Company had net current assets of £1,745,734,146 (2023: £1,121,084,814). The directors consider that the Company has access to sufficient funding to meet its funding requirement for the foreseeable future and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. The directors have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the Company or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the Company's financial position means that this is realistic. They have not concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements.”

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
