Going concern

Affirmed

“The Company's business activities, financial position and cash flows, together with the factors likely to affect its future performance and position, are set out in the strategic report on pages 1-18. Details of its objectives and policies on financial risk management are set out above. As a result of the above assessments the directors consider that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, which comprises the period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements, that is 31 August 2026. There are no material uncertainties that would prevent the directors from being unable to make this statement. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Company's financial statements.”

• “The Company is investing in both its internal and customer-facing systems and in its office environments, including expanding its regional presence with a new office in Portsmouth and purchasing two buildings immediately adjacent to existing offices in Leatherhead, to cater for further expansion.”
• “During the year, the Company acquired property, for £5.4 million, adjacent to its offices in Leatherhead.”

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
