Audit opinion

Going concern
Affirmed

“The Directors continue to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. The Directors have assessed the position of the Company for the 12 months following signing of the financial statements and have a reasonable expectation that the Company is expected to continue to generate positive cash flows on its own account for the foreseeable future and meet its liabilities as they fall due. Additionally, the Company participates in the group's centralised treasury arrangements and so shares banking arrangements with its parent and fellow subsidiaries. The Directors have obtained a letter of support from their ultimate parent company, Farleigh Holdings Pty Ltd, to the effect that it commits to provide financial and operational support to the Company for a minimum period of 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. As such, the Directors have assessed there is no material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.”

Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
