Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have considered the uncertainties presented by the current economic conditions in relation to demand and its impact on the group's business operations and financial position and have prepared detailed trading and cash flow forecasts for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements which demonstrated that the group is likely to remain profitable and will have sufficient cash reserves to fund its operations. The group also has the support of its parent company to provide additional funding if required and therefore the directors believe that the going concern assumption remains appropriate.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
