- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In assessing whether the financial statements for the company should be prepared on the going concern basis, the directors have considered the outlook of the company, including future operating profits, cash flows and facilities available to the company. Despite the significant reduction in revenue in the current financial year, future cashflows and forecasts based on anticipated revenue, along with the reduction in overheads, confirm that the company will remain cash positive. Further information on this is given in note 2.4 to these financial statements. The directors are satisfied that the company will have sufficient funds to repay its liabilities as they fall due and adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Consequently, the financial statements of the company are prepared on the going concern basis.”

Significant events
- “We have entered into a joint partnership with a very well-established distributor in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and have opened a new office there to demonstrate and promote our cyber defence products into the Middle East region.”
- “In response to the uncertainty in the market the company also reviewed its internal structure and made a number of changes to allow the business to operate in a leaner fashion at reduced overheads with a lower break-even point. Whilst much of the restructure was completed during the financial year, some further reorganisation was carried out in the period from October to December 2024.”
- “As noted in the Business Review, on page 1, the company carried out some further restructuring in the period from 1 October 2024 to 31 December 2024.”

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
