“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The principal business risk affecting the company relates to the loss of a major customer as the majority of our trade is with two main customers and the current contract with one of these customers is for 3 years and includes a 6-month disengagement clause the other is a one year contract with one year extension.”
- “The company's overall aim is to increase its turnover and profitability through the growth of its warranty parts supply and reverse logistics business, developing its existing customer base but more importantly by expanding the range of customers using this unique service.”
- “The directors are monitoring the company's trading prospects and are focused on continued profitability. Continuing efforts will be made to expand our current service offering to existing customers and new customers, together with maintaining net working capital and improving profitability.”

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
