- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Trustees have assessed MHM's ability to continue as a going concern by reviewing budgets, reserves and cashflow forecasts, and the impact of a range of possible scenarios. This assessment demonstrated that in the worst-case scenario, MHM could sustain its status as a going concern over the next 12 months from the date of sign off of these financial statements. In support of this conclusion, financial performance in 2025/26 to date is ahead of budget.”

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
