Going concern

Affirmed

“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 improvement in supply enabled our volumes to grow 40% year on year.”
• “The directors are satisfied with the results for the year but anticipate 2025 to be more of a challenge. The UK motorhome market has slowed. Whilst data suggests new registrations are still rising, we believe this is driven by elevated levels of discounted competitor dealer stocks. We therefore expect to have a volume reduction in 2025 but still continue to maintain a healthy level of profits.”
• “The global economic climate had eased to some degree. Inflation, while still relatively high at the start of the year, had eased and dropped back down to sustainable levels by year end. Interest rates had been holding steady for large parts of 2024.”
• “In response to this at the February NEC show we launched our new finance product, Auto-Trail advance. In conjunction with our finance partner, we offered the option of the first manufacturer led PCP product in the UK motorhome market.”

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
