Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- IFRS
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Bennett Brooks & Co Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”
Significant events
- “In mid-March 2024, the Company issued a product recall for a small batch of products. The factory had undergone an extensive cleaning process with production gradually recommencing during April 2024. The Company is in the process of making an insurance claim for which they have received some funds, however at the financial statement approval date, the receipt amount is yet to be fully finalised and it is not possible to reliably estimate the claim.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
