Going concern

Affirmed

“On the basis of current financial projections, the directors are confident that the company has adequate resources considering its profit, net current assets and cash to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, they consider that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Profitability and cash flows have been prepared on a conservative basis and the business is forecast to remain stable with sufficient cash resources for the foreseeable future being at least 12 months from the date of approving these financial statements.”

Significant events

• “From 2023, the Company has worked with a legal consultant to ensure compliance with the UK Green Claims Code and the EU Green Claims Directive. This work continued in 2024 to adhere to relevant changes within the legislations.”
• “In 2024, the Company worked with an external consultant to streamline its due diligence approach at Group level.”
• “The Company also concluded its first Carbon Footprint assessment at Group level in 2024.”
• “A key decision made during the year concerned the Company's website. The board analysed the structure and processes of the e-commerce in light of Brexit and customs regulations... The decision was taken to create two merchants of records. The UK Company... only manages the UK market. From September 2023, the rest of the world is managed and distributed by our Italian sister company Vivienne Westwood SRL.”

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
