- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making enquiries and taking into account the challenges facing the UK cash market, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. A letter of support has been signed by the parent company Loomis AB confirming their continuing support for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval to these financial statements. The directors have assessed and concluded that the parent company is in a position to be able to provide sufficient financial support to the company and for the accounts to be prepared on a going concern basis with no material uncertainty identified. The company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The company continued with its programme of renewing its fleet of vehicles which will stretch into 2025.”
- “A new employee discount and benefit platform ("Reward Gateway") was launched in 2023 which provides retail discounts and is available to all of the Company's employees.”
- “during 2024, a new communication platform, utilising the Reward Gateway platform, has been launched ("myConnect") which provides Company-wide communications, allows employees to provide feedback and is a recognition tool.”
- “Loomis UK Limited began a new programme of replacing older and heavier fleet vehicles with 110 lighter and more fuel-efficient vehicles. The programme continued into 2024. We currently have 11 electric vehicles and 1 hybrid vehicle as part of the operational fleet.”
- “New plastic security bags procured are made up of a high percentage of recycled materials.”
- “Loomis has issued Sustainability-Linked Bonds since 2021, as a way to integrate its sustainability commitments into the financing of the company.

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
