- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have considered the Company's principal risks and uncertainties and concluded that the Company will have sufficient funds available under its current resources and committed facilities to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date these financial statements are approved. These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which the directors believe to be appropriate for the following reasons: • The Company is a significant component of the E.ON SE group, one of Europe's largest energy groups and performs key business activities including the provision of energy related services. • The Company is a member of the UK cash pooling facility managed by EON SE, whereby the cash balance of the Company is swept into an inter-company bank account on a daily basis. To the extent that working capital requirements arise, these are met through access to the cash pooling facility. As at the date of approval of these financial statements, the Company had a net receivable balance from that facility. • The Company's parent, E.ON UK plc, has significant receivables from its immediate parent company, HoldCo. HoldCo has prepared a base case financial forecast covering the E.ON UK group companies ("the UK Group"), including the Company, for at least 12 months from the date these financial statements are approved. These forecasts indicate that the UK Group will have sufficient funds available under its current resources and committed facilities to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due.”

- “the transfer of the Company's City Energy Solutions business to a fellow group undertaking is expected to commence in 2025.”

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
