Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- IFRS
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Grant Thornton UK LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Board has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements and has therefore assessed that the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate in preparing the financial statements and that there are no material uncertainties to disclose.”
Significant events
- “The war in Ukraine led to higher fuel prices. This has an impact on ESL's operational expenditure. A fuel charge levy was applied to the charges in 2023 to mitigate this additional cost.”
- “Geopolitical events across the globe can have the potential, as we saw in early 2024, to disrupt trade volumes coming into the Port of London and Medway, which can have an adverse impact on our financial performance.”
