- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have reviewed the group's budgets and forecast for the next 12 month from the date of this report, as well as its liquid resources, medium term plans and the potential impact of governmental and legislative change, geopolitical action, inflation and exchange rate volatility and other economic events on its operations, supply chain, customer demand and working capital. The group has also performed a downside scenario which, while considered highly unlikely, demonstrates that the group will have sufficient cash resources for a period of at least one year. As a result, the group feels confident that it has sufficient resources to be a going concern.”

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
