“Forecasts have been prepared which take into account estimates of future performance based on changes in the economic environment. These forecasts indicate that the company will continue to operate within their existing facilities. At 31 December 2025, the company had net assets of £24.0m (2024 - £21.9m) and access to a group cash pool facility. Based on the forecasts prepared and on the assumption that the company will continue to have access to and can draw down on the group cash pooling facility, the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “We started the year with timber prices rising until the summer months before falling in the autumn and winter but remained higher than at the start of the year.”
- “We began 2026 with weak sales due to poor demand and inclement weather, continued price and margin pressure, expected to last until the Spring. Prices are currently low and flat. We anticipate increased prices from quarter two, when seasonal demand picks up and supply is more in balance with demand because of significant capacity reductions in the sawmills since the winter of 2025.”
- “During 2026 we aim to continue to build on our external supply in addition to our internal purchases.”
- “In 2025 we continue to diversify and strengthen our customer base, and this was reflected in our volume growth.”
- “The company has taken further steps in 2025 to strengthen its IT infrastructure and support in addition to implementing various ongoing system improvements, in line with Head Office.”

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
