Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence over a period greater than 12 months, in line with its strategic plan. The directors have considered the company's liquidity and expect that it shall have sufficient cash reserves in order to meet liabilities as they fall due. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “The Company made contributions to the employee ownership trust totalling £4,100,000 (2023 - £2,700,000).”
• “The business continued to perform strongly, with a 127% increase in turnover from the previous year, largely due to acting as main contractor on numerous projects and diversification of works including full turnkey solutions and data centres.”

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
