Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the Financial Statements. As the Company is in a net current liabilities and net liabilities position, it is reliant on parental support to settle its liabilities as they fall due. A letter of support has been provided by E D & F Man Commodities Limited, the immediate parent company, for the period up to 31 May 2026. The Financial Statements are therefore prepared on a going concern basis.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-09-30 vs 2023-09-30

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
