- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The company has received a letter of support from RTX Corporation and, therefore, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Group structure
- HS MARSTON AEROSPACE LIMITED · parent
- Montauk (UK) Investment Holdings Limited 100%
- Farmington (UK) Investments LP 100%
Significant events
- “The growth in the company's performance within the year is as a result of an increase in air travel to historic levels. This has improved the requirement for aftermarket spares which has increased by 100% year on year. In addition, following the Russia invasion of Ukraine, RTX Corporation have withdrawn from a joint venture company based in Russia manufacturing heat exchangers. Consequently, the manufacture of these parts was transferred to HS Marston which has resulted in investments in new equipment and recruitment of skilled personnel.”
- “The company does not trade or hold assets in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine and therefore is not directly affected. However, the economic knock-on effects of sanctions and the Black Sea blockade will inevitably have short to long term effects as we have seen the ramifications in increased energy prices, jump in inflation and interest rates.”
- “The directors expect to see continued growth and development under RTX Corporation due to benefits derived from economies of scale.”

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
