- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors believe that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. The going concern period assessed covers the period up to 31 August 2026. The Company is a subsidiary of the MSQ Group, headed by Marvel Topco Limited, which has provided a letter of support to confirm its financial support to the Company.”
Significant events
- “On 1 March 2025, the trade and selected net assets of the '26DXP' division of the Company were transferred to MMT Limited, a fellow wholly owned subsidiary within the MSQ Group, for £Nil consideration, equivalent to the net book value and fair value of the trade and selected net assets. This was settled in cash at the start of the period.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
