Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors are satisfied that, at the time of approving the consolidated financial statements, there is a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least the next 12 months. For this reason, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the consolidated financial statements, using cashflows and forecasting to substantiate this. Stress testing aims to ensure that capital adequacy is maintained in a variety of scenarios, even in a 'severe' market downturn scenario case. The stress testing did not result in any issues with regards to going concern and as a result, the directors have assessed no going concern issues are likely to arise for the company.”

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
