Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Larking Gowen LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared projected cash flow information for the period of twelve months from the date of approval of the balance sheet taking account of the bank facilities available to the Group which were renewed after the balance sheet date and reasonably possible changes in trading performance. These projections indicate that the Group and Company will be able to meet liabilities as they fall due and operate within the renewed bank facilities. Accordingly the directors are confident that the going concern basis for preparing these accounts remains appropriate.”
Significant events
- “The directors report the very sad news of the untimely death of the director, Peter Colby on 14 January 2024. Peter founded the Saint Vincent Holdings and Peter Colby Commercials group of companies 50 years ago.”
- “In 2023 the company opened a new Van Centre in Norwich which has extended services to potential new customers and markets.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
