Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“The Directors have assessed the principal risks and uncertainties facing the company and its ability to meet its obligations as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Forecasts have been prepared incorporating prudent assumptions, reductions in sales volumes and capital expenditure estimates. These forecasts indicate the company will maintain a positive cash position and net assets throughout the period. Accordingly, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and, therefore, continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.”

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
