Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The Directors consider that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Following the recent change of ownership, the Directors note that the company benefits from the ongoing financial and operational support of its parent company, Foundry International LLC. The support includes access to group funding arrangements and other resources as required. The parent company has confirmed its intention to continue providing such support for the foreseeable future, enabling the company to meet its obligations as they fall due and continue its planned operations. The additional support has been taken into account by the Directors in their assessment and is considered to provide further assurance that the company will continue to operate as a going concern for at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
