Audit opinion

Qualified

Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “This trading period had a significant positive effect on turnover.”
• “Turnover increased by £880k, which exceeded target and our gross profit margin rose by 1.13%, which brought us back in line with our five year planning.”
• “Some new vehicles and plant were delivered within this period and the balance of repairs to depreciation and new maintenance contracts has returned.”
• “Staffing levels remained static at the end of the year with only small movements related to normal attrition.”
• “The company also continued to reduce its carbon impact via its replacement policies on vehicles, more recycling and energy use. The on-going move to sustainable solutions to lighting large areas continues.”
• “The Directors continue to be confident of the prospects of the business and are actively investing in IT, new equipment and site development as markets change within our sector.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
