- Going concern
- 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
- “In September 2024 the Company entered into an agreement over various bank loans and overdrafts of certain Group undertakings and has granted, as security, a fixed and floating charge over all its present and future assets. At the period end the loans totalled £1,778.2m and the net overdraft totalled £8.1m.”
- “On 3 April 2025 the Group completed the refinancing of its existing loan facilities. As a result security given by the company was released and it is no longer a party to the contingent liabilities disclosed above but entered into an agreement under the new finance facilities and has granted, as security, a fixed and floating charge over all its present and future assets. Following the refinancing, the loans over which security has been granted totalled £1,542m, including a £238m Revolving Credit Facility.”
