- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“None of the modelling undertaken by the Directors gives rise to any concerns and suggest this is a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. A similar exercise was undertaken in 2024 prior to signing the statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023. The positive results for the year ended 31 December 2024 provide comfort that the forecast methods utilised are accurate and comprehensive and support the directors view of going concern.”
Significant events
- “Continued Investment in a new high efficiency cylinder factory in Derby.”
- “Decision to commence production in the high efficiency cylinder factory in Q4 2024.”

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
