- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which the Directors believe to be appropriate. The Company made a profit after taxation of £3,614,000, had net current liabilities of £11,843,000 and net assets of £10,957,000 at the balance sheet date. we consider that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate; we have not identified, and concur with the directors' assessment that there is not, a material uncertainty related to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for the going concern period.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
