Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have considered the current economic environment and have prepared trading and cash flow projections until 30 June 2026. These forecasts demonstrate that the company is able to generate sufficient cash flows to service its ongoing debt and business requirements as they become due. After careful consideration, the directors have concluded that they have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. Therefore, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
