- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- 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
- “Subsequent to the year end, on 8 January 2026, BlackRock took control of the Group fully acquiring Mode Solutions Limited, the parent company to the trading entity Espria Limited. The acquisition is via Edna Bidco Limited (registered in Jersey with company number 161436) who are effectively 100% owned by our lender, BlackRock. By taking control of the Group, they have also reduced the senior debt the Group owes to them from £58m down to £9m with a further £1m to support deal fees.”
- “The existing facility has been re-tranched into a new term facility of £10,000,000 that is due to be repaid in full on 8 January 2033. Additionally as part of the Group restructuring, amounts owed to companies outside of the new Group totalling £5,282,995 were sold to Edna Bidco for £1. As the Group restructuring occurred after the reporting date, it is treated as a non-adjusting event.”
