- Auditor
- Johnston Carmichael LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have considered the projected trading performance for the Company for a period of at least the next 12 months. Based on this, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company will have adequate resources available to them and financial support from the ultimate parent company to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Management have also assessed the impact of the increased in interest rates and related cost of living crisis on the business through re-forecasting and budgeting and as a result, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. (page 15). The auditor also concluded that the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate and found no material uncertainties. (page 8)”
Significant events
- “The Company has evaluated subsequent events through to the date these financial statements were approved and has not identified any significant subsequent events that require consideration as an adjustment.”

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
