- 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. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The company won several new high value contracts which contributed to a strong end to the year.”
- “In January 2024 the warehousing business of our sister company, Warehouse One Distribution Limited, was transferred to the company as part of a group restructuring exercise.”
- “A dividend of £1,000,000 was paid during the year (2023: £Nil).”
- “The Goldman Sachs loan has since been repaid in full in 2025.”
