Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis

- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Ernst & Young LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors, having assessed the company's financial position, have no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists that casts significant doubt over the company's ability to continue as a going concern or jeopardise its ability to continue within the current banking arrangements. The company participates in the wider Lockheed Martin group's centralised treasury and shared banking arrangements with its fellow subsidiaries. As a result, the directors have received written confirmation of financial support from the ultimate parent undertaking, Lockheed Martin Corporation, covering the period to 30 September 2026. After having made the necessary enquiries to assess the Parent's ability to support including an understanding of the forecasts, cash position and debt commitments of the Group, the directors are satisfied that they are able to provide financial support should the Company require it. Therefore, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

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
