Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 original financial statements were authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “Despite significant increases in cost of goods sold, the company have seen another good year of results, following great results in 2023.”
• “The trend for a staycation and the increased demand for caravans and motorhomes have increased sales prices this year, but the company has been unable to fully match the increase in the cost of goods in 2024.”
• “The business is reducing further the chances of exchange rate volatility over the next twelve months by switching the one remaining EU supplier to invoicing in GBP.”

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
