Audit & accounting basis

- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- F. W. Smith, Riches & Co.
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- 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
- “Company turnover increased by 100% from £2,656,005 in 2024 to £5,311,399 in 2025. The value of the shareholders' funds increased by 94% from £3,505,615 in 2024 to £6,801,439 in 2025, principally as a result of profits exceeding dividends paid.”
- “During the year under review the Board decided to pay interim dividends of £2,200,000 (2024: £1,200,000).”

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
