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

• “During 2023, the Human8 group and the company had changed the revenue recognition method from revenue sharing to profit sharing part way through the year as part of the implementation of a new ERP system.”
• “Both the Human8 group and Join The Dots (Research) Limited experienced a revenue decline in 2024 compared to 2023. The decline is linked to both a difficult economic climate and the internal focus through integration, rebranding and ERP implementation.”
• “Operating profit has decreased year over year by 0.55MGBP of which 0.3MGBP was linked to restructuring cost.”
• “Tim Wragg was appointed Chief Executive Officer in August 2024. He succeeds Camille Nicita.”
• “Human8 has renegotiated its credit contract in Q4 2024 so that debt repayments and interest charges are in a healthy relationship with the operating result that has been achieveć and will be achieved.”

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
