- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group and the company have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Cash flow projections covering the period 12 months from the date of signing these accounts have been prepared. The directors have concluded that there are sufficient liquid assets at the group's disposal which can be utilised to fulfil any liabilities which fall due over a period of at least the next 12 months. Furthermore the directors note that, in the unlikely event that it is required, further liquid funds could be made available to the group through leveraging the group's fixed asset base. Thus, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “On 8 July 2024 the group acquired the entire issued share capital of Gunn JCB Group Limited ("Gunn"), a JCB distributor. The acquisition was paid for through the use of group cash reserves.”
- “Our existing JCB operation had a good year supported by strong new machine sales however tightening margins in aftersales restricted profitability. There were significant challenges experienced by the newly acquired Gunn operation in the year whilst we build for the future.”

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
