PORTAKABIN (REFURBISHED) LIMITED

• ⚠

  Material uncertainty over going concern

  Following the decision made in July 2020 to transfer the trade and assets of the company to Portakabin Limited (a fellow group company), the company has ceased trading and is expected to remain non-trading going forward. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than that of a going concern. Nevertheless, given the net liability position of the company, the directors have obtained a letter of support from Pacific Topco Limited for a period to 30 June 2026. Adopting a basis other than going concern has not given rise to any adjustments to the financial statements.

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
