Going concern

Affirmed

“At 31 May 2025 the company had net current assets of £6.2m with cash balances in excess of £2.4m and no debt. The directors have reviewed cash flow forecasts prepared on a conservative basis, which demonstrate the company's ability to continue trading within available resources, with support from the parent company if required, for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts.”

Significant events

• “The trading result for the year to 31 May 2025 has seen a return to positive EBITDA of £164k, despite the prolonged difficult economic climate. The continued pressures on consumer spending have contributed to a 4% decline in turnover, however this was mitigated by a stronger final quarter, which has continued into the new financial year. The company's trading performance is reflective of its diverse customer base and extensive product portfolio, with growth in swimming pool and on-line sales partially offsetting the weaker UK and US markets.”
• “In light of the challenging conditions facing the industry and the sizeable increases in employment costs, the company began to implement cost control measures in spring 2024, which together with a focus on operational efficiencies has brought significant improvement in both gross margin and operating performance. Management remain committed to investment in new products and commercial prospects, as demonstrated by the opening of a new Clay & Rock showroom on Kings Road, London, in late 2024.”
• “The balance sheet remains strong and cash balances have been maintained without the use of any external financing. Management are confident the company is well placed to take advantage of sales opportunities in an improving economic outlook.”

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
