- MHA
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors believe that preparing the financial statements on a going concern basis is appropriate due to continued financial support of the intermediate parent company, Goliath International Holding B.V. The directors have received confirmation that Goliath International Holding B.V. intends to support the company for at least one year after the financial statements are signed and will make available such funds as are needed by the company in order to meet its liabilities as they fall due. With this support in place and after assessing and gaining comfort of Goliath International Holding B.V.'s ability to provide the support if required, the Directors' have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue an operational existence for the foreseeable future.”
Significant events
- “Continued trouble in the Red Sea and Suez Canal remains which has resulted in longer shipping times as vessels are forced to use alternative routes, together with reduced capacity on these vessels. While management continue to work to minimise disruption to the supply chain to fulfil domestic orders, some delays will be inevitable and higher import costs will likely be incurred, which may be difficult to pass on to customers.”
- “Subsequent to the year end, the company lost the right to act as sole distributor with a major supplier. Whilst this represents a loss of a significant portion of revenues, the directors have assessed the financial and operational implications, concluding that the event is not expected to have a significant impact on the ability to continue as a going concern”

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
