- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In forming this expectation, the directors have reviewed post year end management accounts and detailed forecasts including cashflow. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The Board of Directors declared an interim dividend of £400,000 during the year which was paid in December 2024.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
