Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “Ariat Europe's business activities exposed it to the post-Brexit trade arrangements and its implications which had driven increased complexity & cost.”
• “The significant increases in inflation and subsequent increased cost of living could result in consumer demand shifting with buying behaviour becoming more cautious and consumer spend focusing more on key elements of cost of living.”

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
