- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “On 1st October 2025 AVK UK Ltd acquired the trading assets of Aqua-Gas Manufacturing Ltd, Bryan Donkin Valves Ltd and AVK Syddal Ltd. ... The bringing together of these 4 companies into one trading entity is part of an ongoing process to become as efficient as possible.”

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
