- Sumer Auditco Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Board of Directors is required to consider the company's ability to continue as a going concern over a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. The directors are confident that the company can continue to trade successfully and continue to provide an excellent and reliable service to our customers for the foreseeable future because we have a satisfactory order book from well established customers, and we have a £11.3 million balance sheet with strong liquidity and consistent profits. Thus, we continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “We work in an extremely competitive sector and the results achieved were especially pleasing in the light of the continuing high inflation, wages inflation, skills shortages and materials price increases as well as the uncertainty caused by the continuing war in Ukraine and the conflict in the Middle East.”
- “In particular we are proud to continue our many years of support for the charity Stripey Stork. We were a headline sponsor for the 2025 Mental Health World Cup and we have committed to continue that sponsorship into 2026. Our employees raised funds for various charities such as CALM, the Stroke Association and Strongmen. In addition, we are proud to support and donate to other charity fundraising events and local community engagement days, most notable being over £20,000 raised for Ickle Pickles and the London Neonatal Operational Delivery Network, two charities that do fantastic work.”

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
