Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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

• “The director considers that the principal risks and uncertainties that are relevant to the company's operation and strategy are credit risk, liquidity risk, operating regulation, the economy and competition.”
• “Reducing the environmental impact of waste, repurposing as much waste as possible and playing its part in the circular economy drive is a key part of the company's objectives and strategy. The company has been able to achieve this via its own 'Environmental Agency' permitted recycling facility and by the use of other highly reputable recycling tip sites.”

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
