- Forvis Mazars LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Based on current information and future forecasts, alongside stress testing of future expectations, the Directors are confident that the business will be able to continue to operate for the foreseeable future and therefore believe that the going concern assessment remains an appropriate basis for the preparation of the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “During the year 2023-2024, the Company saw turnover drop by 22% from £13.4m (2023) to £10.4m (2024). This decrease was due to the result of several factors, notably the unusually high levels of inventory held in the industry distribution network and the unseasonally wet Autumn and Winter season in 2023 / 2024, which had a serious impact on customer demand in the first half of the financial year. The second half of the financial year saw some increase in customer demand back towards forecasted levels as both climatic and economic conditions improved.”

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
