Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Rayner Essex LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Material uncertainty disclosed
“It is the intention of the directors to apply to strike off the company from the Companies House register in the near future and, as a result, the going concern basis is no longer considered appropriate. For the above reason, the directors and members have determined that the going concern basis is no longer appropriate, and the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern in order to give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and the results of the company for the year ended 31 December 2025.”
