Going concern

Affirmed

“The Directors have prepared forecasts and projections considering severe but plausible changes in trading performance. At the time of approving the financial statements, the Directors have reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and at least 12 months from the approval of these financial statements. Thus, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting and preparing the financial statements. The Directors note that at the balance sheet date and also at the date of signing the accounts the business holds no commercial debt requirement due to its consistent cash flow management. Although the business is in this favourable position it also retains a £25m loan facility which is a significant mitigation to any potential but unforeseen risks. This leaves the business in a very secure financial position.”

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
