Going concern

Affirmed

“The Company is currently trading profitably, with positive cash flow and a strong overall balance sheet. Given the Company operates within a group cash pool arrangement, the directors have obtained a letter of support from the immediate parent Company, HL Display AB, indicating that they have the ability to provide the financial and other support necessary for the Company to trade and meet its obligations as and when they become due for a period of 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements. After making due enquiries and including the considerations of the current economic environment, future economic forecasts and the additional support available from the parent company, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operation for the going concern period up to the 30 September 2026.”

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
