- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have considered the appropriateness of adopting the going concern basis for preparing the financial statements of this non-trading company. The Company undertakes intercompany lending to a UK entity, and the directors are satisfied that for the foreseeable future, the intercompany borrower will be able settle its interest payable under the terms of the intercompany lending contract by way of capitalisation of unpaid interest into the principal. The directors consider that the Company, which is generating a profit from intercompany lending and has net current assets, has adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future, being at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The directors therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for preparing the financial statements.”

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
