- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis which the Directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts and performed a going concern assessment of the Group and Company, which indicates that, in both the base and reasonably possible downsides, the Group and Company will have sufficient funds to meet their liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, the going concern assessment period. Should there be any additional need, the ultimate parent company, Bidco 3 Limited have indicated that they would provide the funding needed. In our evaluation of the directors' conclusions, we considered the inherent risks to the Company's business model and analysed how those risks might affect the Company's financial resources or ability to continue operations over the going concern period. Our conclusions based on this work: we consider that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate; we have not identified, and concur with the directors' assessment that there is not, a material uncertainty related to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the going concern period.”
Significant events
- “The UK the business was affected by a cyber attack in February 2025 which impacted all 7 UK factories with production being stopped for between 3 and 14 weeks depending on site and process complexity. All factories are now fully functional; however, IT development was restricted as resources were deployed to the cyber incident and this impact will continue throughout the next financial year.”

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
