- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The Directors are pleased with the results for the year, this has been a strong year and is in line with the targets set by the board at the beginning of the year. All the areas targeted for growth by the board have been successfully achieved.”
- “The Crown group was officially certified as Carbon Neutral in April 22 and are committed to the target of Net Zero Carbon by 2030. Beesley has delivered carbon cutting solutions both internally to our offices and fleet, and externally to our customer base.”
- “The shift from traditional to green fuels within our existing customer portfolio has continued to move forward, with many customers being drawn to the benefits of using our HVO or buying one of our Carbon Offset fuels to reduce their carbon footprint.”
- “The company has continued in its long-term aim of strengthening both its infrastructure and staff resource throughout the year with further appointments being made in specific areas; This is a process that will continue in line with the organic growth of the company over the coming years.”
- “Beesley has continued investment into the supply and use of renewable and sustainable fuels to meet legislated changes, in particular Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO). The board sees the considerable environmental benefits from use, with a reduction of up to 90% greenhouse gas emissions and reducing the NOx, PM, and CO emissions.”

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
