“When preparing these financial statements, management has applied the going concern assumption. The company made a profit after tax of £48,429 during the year under review and as noted is forecasted to make further profit in the twelve months from the date of signing. Management prepared forecasts covering the twelve months from the date of signing which indicate the company will be able to meet its working capital requirements during this period.”
Significant events
- “The exceptional item in the year related to the write-off of an intercompany loan with Camisa Shops Limited amounting to £134,065.”
- “The company has an invoice discount facility in place, the terms have been considered when preparing the forecast. Either party can cancel the terms of the facility following a contractual agreed notice period, and should cancellation take place during the going concern review period being the twelve months from the date of signing, an alternative facility will need to be secured.”
- “The prior year's investment consisted of 100% of the ordinary shares in Ali-Vini Company (1985) Limited, a dormant company incorporated in England & Wales, which was dissolved on 19 November 2024.”

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
