Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 101
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Grant Thornton UK LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Based on these analyses and facts, the directors believe that the company will be able to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least the next 12 months and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “As at 31 October 2023, the shareholders of The Oxford Aunts agreed to sell all their shares to Elevate Care International Limited, a newly created entity under the ownership of The Halifax Group a mid-tier US private equity firm.”
- “Following the sale of the group as at 31 October 2023, the funding structure of the business significantly changed. Cash at bank and in hand had previously been maintained at high levels to satisfy the requirements of the Care Quality Commission, however post sale these requirements fell away allowing the business to hold a much lower level.”
