Going concern

Affirmed

“Despite net current liabilities of £56,598,000 as at 31 December 2024 and a loss for the year of £3,473,000 the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. The directors have considered the future profitability and working capital requirements of the company and its ability to continue as a going concern, and are satisfied that, for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, the company can meet its liabilities as they fall due.”

To manage risk, the company strives to provide added-value products and services to its customers; prompt response times in the supply of products and services and in the handling of customer queries; and through the maintenance of strong relationship with customers.”

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
