- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company has net current assets of £12.5m at 31 December 2024 (2023: £3.7m). The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the Directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. The Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for a period of 14 months from the date of approval of these financial statements which indicate that, taking account of reasonably possible downsides, including a sensitivity on working capital and the crystallisation of risks, the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period.”
Significant events
- “A review of the company's VAT position between 2016 and 2021 was concluded during 2024, resulting in no liabilities or penalties for the Company.”

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
