Audit & accounting basis

- Auditor
- Grant Thorton UK LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- 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 Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for the period to 30 September 2026. These forecasts indicate that, taking account of reasonably possible downsides, the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due over that period. Based upon the forecasts, 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.”
Significant events
- “Growth has continued through 2024 and the company is well positioned for future years expansion and global market presence.”
- “Strong demand across all regions through increasing global electrification requirements and the growing demand for global data storage is allowing the business to develop and launch new innovative power testing products.”

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
