Going concern

Affirmed

“As at 31 December 2024, the Company has net assets of £60m (2023: £53m). In assessing whether the going concern basis is appropriate, the directors have taken into account all available information about the future up to 30 September 2026, which is at least 12 months from the date of the approval of these financial statements. The directors have considered the cash flow forecast and profitability of the Company, considering a reasonable worst-case scenario on its operations and performance and that of its intermediate parent company. The directors have also obtained confirmation from BMI Group Holdings UK Limited that no group restructuring has been approved which will have a material impact on the Company's ability to remain a going concern for the foreseeable future. As a result, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these annual financial statements.”

Significant events

• “In 2024, as part of the company's financial transformation programme, a comprehensive review of historic balance sheet entries across both assets and liabilities was undertaken. This review identified legacy balances that were no longer supportable, resulting in a write off of £2,258k from the balance sheet. These balances related to a range of areas, including obligations that had ceased and asset values that could no longer be substantiated.”
• “Amounts due by group constitutes a £55m loan to a related group undertaking. The loan replaces a £30m loan previously made which was closed out in September 2024 and replaced with this £55m loan which matures on 23 September 2027 with interest charged daily based on floating base rate plus 1.84%.”

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
