- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After reviewing all available information, including current market conditions, and financing arrangements with UCL, the company's parent entity, the directors have reasonable expectation that there are no material uncertainties leading to any significant doubt about the going concern status of the company for the going concern assessment period up to 31 July 2027.”
Significant events
- “The company recorded a pre-tax loss of (£42k) in the year (2024: loss of £329k). The losses are primarily driven by the fair value revaluation of the company's investment property (downward valuation in 2025 of (£45k) and in 2024 (£370k)).”
- “The drop in profit was a consequence of the reduction in rental income, as the tenant of the office unit vacated the unit at the end of their lease.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
