Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts and performed a going concern assessment for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements which indicate that, taking account of reasonably possible downsides, the Company will have sufficient funds, through funding from its ultimate parent Company, Celestica Inc., to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period. ... Consequently, the directors are confident that the Company will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Significant events

• “During the year the Company has seen turnover decrease by c.13.7% from $181.0m to $156.2m and profit before tax was $825k compared to $281k in the previous year. This increase in profit before tax, despite a fall in turnover, is mainly due to restructuring and foreign exchange costs that were incurred in 2023 but not repeated in 2024. The shareholder surplus has increased from a deficit of $0.3m to $1.8m and cash has decreased to $13.4m (2023: $28.8m).”
• “In the event that the group fails to comply with covenants in the term loan and revolving credit facility, then the assets of certain guarantee companies within the group could be surrendered to the lenders in settlement of any liabilities unpaid. At 31 December 2024 no such event had occurred.”

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
