- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company's forecasts and projections take into account management's latest forecast for our critical travel markets and show the Company should be able to operate without changes to its capital structure and without additional financial support. Having reviewed the forecasts, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has sufficient liquidity to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date that the financial statements are signed and hence continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “Since the acquisition by Flight Centre Travel Group in 2023, a group reorganisation has been undertaken in order to simplify the group structure and remove holding companies no longer required. As part of this, the immediate parent company of Scott Dunn Limited changed in 2025 from The Luxury Travel Group Limited to Flight Centre Travel Group (European Holdings) Limited.”
- “The Company paid dividends of £34.1m (2024: £nil) during the year as part of the group reorganisation whereby the Company became a direct subsidiary of Flight Centre (European Holdings) Limited. A further dividend was declared and paid on 7 July 2025 for £15m.”

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
