- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors are satisfied that the business model has demonstrated its ability to operate in such situations, and consider that it is well placed to deal with these potential challenges. They have prepared forecasts at a group level which demonstrate the group, of which Airsprung Furniture Limited is a member, has sufficient headroom within the current facilities to deal with a reasonable level of unforeseen events, and the parent company has provided a letter of support to the company. The directors are satisfied it is reasonable for the group, of which the company is a member, to expect continued support from key stakeholders, including the investors, bank and pension fund. Therefore the directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “After a strategic review of the company's upholstery manufacturing operation based in Chorley the decision was made to cease production at this site. Exceptional closure costs totalling £599,000 were incurred during the year.”
- “The disposal of an underutilised area of the Trowbridge site in March 2023 provided the business with a significant cash injection leaving the business free of any borrowings.”

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
