Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to note 2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the company had net current liabilities of £1,866,247 at 28 February 2025 and the company breached loan covenants during the year, that have yet to be waived The company had a bank overdraft of £355,788 at 28 February 2025, along with bank borrowings and other borrowings of £1,418,513 that fall due for repayment within 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements Whilst the directors consider that the covenant breaches will be waived and any necessary loan facilities will be renewed or replaced, these conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter

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
