- Affirmed
“At 29 March 2025, the company had cash of £2.6 million (2024: £2.0 million), net current assets of £7.2 million (2024: £6.8 million), net assets of £7.4 million (2024: £6.9 million) and made a profit after taxation of £0.4 million (2024: £2.1 million). A going concern assessment has been performed for the UK Bus Division as a whole, which shows positive operating cashflows for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements. The base case assumes growth in passenger volumes and yield, with some government funding. The macro projections in the base case assume that the UK operates in a low-growth, cautiously recovering economy. The directors believe that the likelihood of an extreme downside scenario leading to failure by the company to meet its obligations as they fall due is remote.”
