- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements of BAM Construct & Ventures UK Limited (the Company) and of its subsidiaries (together the Group) have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Directors have concluded that the Company and Group will continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the period of their assessment which is to 30 June 2026. However, given that the Company and the Group are reliant upon cash reserves held by the Royal BAM Group and is a guarantor of borrowings of its ultimate parent company, the Company and Group are reliant upon ongoing support of its ultimate parent. The Directors have received confirmation from the Company's ultimate parent entity that the Company and Group will be provided financial support for the period until 30 June 2026.”

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
