Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Gortons
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.”
Significant events
- “The trading company's net assets have reduced from £5,068,036 in 2023 to £3,186,868. Whilst a company restructure impacts the company's Balance Sheet position the changes do not affect the company's trade. The group position reflects the introduction of a holding company in which, like many businesses, the business property is now held.”
- “On 18 October 2024, land and buildings at Drury Lane, Chadderton were transferred from Trans-Bridge Freight Services Limited to Trans-Bridge Freight Services (Holdings) Limited via a dividend in specie.”
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. 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
