Going concern

Affirmed

“The director will continue to monitor the situation and costs closely and remains confident in the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the director has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Trading performance for Christmas 2024 has been ahead of forecasts and profitable. However, as with most businesses serving the eating and drinking out sector, the current economic impacts of rising costs and the global energy crisis is creating uncertainty over future customer demand, dining patterns and costs of running the business. The director has prepared prudent cash flow projections for the period through to 31 October 2026, which takes into consideration the current economic climate, including expected increases in business running costs. The projections show the company continues to forecast a profit and operate within its banking facilities.”

Significant events

• “During the prior period, the covenants attached to the bank loans were breached and the bank loans were designated as due within one year. The bank has since removed the covenants attached to the loans. As such, the bank loans in the current year have been allocated accordingly between short-term and long-term creditors.”

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
