Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors have considered a number of factors that will impact the going concern of the business over the next 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Taking account of a reasonably and possible downside scenario, the on-going socio-economic impact of the Ukraine and Russian conflict and the company's ability to access working capital if required, the directors believe that the company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period.”

Significant events

• “Sales have decreased by 20% versus the prior year. The UK election impacted sales across the business, uncertainty and government backed projects were cancelled or paused. However, the company were able to notably improve margin by strategically shifting customer base which allowed for a higher focus on value added work.”
• “The general election in 2024 led to a change in government in the UK, this put a hold on major infrastructure projects backed by government funding. The uncertainty leading up to and after the election caused a downturn on new construction projects and extended start dates. This led to a reduction in anticipated sales for 2024.”
• “The Directors committed to a plan to sell the company's Mobile Division. At 31 December 2024, the Mobile Division met the criteria to be classified as an asset held for sale... The sale of the Mobile Division was completed on 31 January 2025, subsequent to the year end.”
• “On 8th October 2025 after the reporting date and prior to the approval of these financial statements in December 2025, the Directors approved a plan to dispose of the Company's property at Unit B1 Eurolink Industrial Est... The disposal is expected to complete in 2026.”
• “On 15th July 2025 after the reporting date and prior to the approval of these financial statements in December 2025, the Directors approved a plan to dispose of the Company's property at 37-39 Bradman Road... The disposal is expected to complete in 2026.”

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
