- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “A significant event post year end was an agreed sale of our Calder Works investment property. The agreed sale price of £3,800,000 is a reduction in the valuation we obtained at year end (£3,900,000) and this loss has been reflected in the profit and loss for this Financial Year. The sale was agreed in October 2025 and, at the time of filing, solicitors were dealing with enquiries with a view to complete in early 2026. This will enable the business to reduce its borrowing costs and re-invest funds back into the business for future growth.”
- “Subsequent to the year end, there has been an agreed sale of its investment property located at Calder Works, Thornhill Road, Dewsbury, WF12 9QF. The property was valued at £3.9 million on 22 May 2025 by Michael Steel and Co Chartered Surveyors; however, is likely to be sold for £3.8 million. Therefore the fair value of the property has remained consistent with the prior year. As this sale provides evidence of conditions that existed at the reporting date, it is treated as an adjusting event under FRS 102 Section 32.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
