Going concern

Affirmed

“At year end, the company has £3.7m of cash and net assets of £12.4m. The ultimate holding company Group accounts, Friedhelm Loh Stiftung & Co. KG, for the year ended 31 December 2023, were prepared on a going concern basis, with no material uncertainties identified. As a result, the Director has not identified any material uncertainties relating to going concern. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.”

Significant events

• “The Board monitors its currency exposure on a continuous basis. Suitable forward exchange contracts are placed to minimise the effects of exchange rate movements.”
• “In the period 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024, the Company has undertaken the following actions to improve energy efficiency: • We are currently exploring the replacement of the roof and have received quotes for work planned in 2025. • An ongoing initiative to replace traditional light bulbs with energy-efficient LED versions is being implemented across the site. This reduces power consumption, lowers maintenance costs, and improves lighting quality with longer-lasting bulbs.”

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
