Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“The Directors of the parent undertaking, Amari Metals Limited, having carefully considered all pertinent matters including the cash reserves of the Group, are satisfied that the Company and Group is a going concern and that sufficient funds are available for a period of at least twelve months from the date of signing these financial statements. The Group treasury function is available to the parent and all companies in the Group; the Directors of this Group accordingly continue to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.”

Significant events

• “The Directors of the Company are not satisfied with the results for the year. Turnover decreased and gross profit increased compared to 2023, and operating expenses have been subject to inflationary pressures, with some investment for future growth. To provide a platform for sustainable growth and to negate the impact of the specific risks and uncertainties identified on this page, the Company will continue to implement operational efficiency improvements, thereby enhancing productivity and reducing operating expenses.”
• “The Company is aware of the 2023 ruling in the Virgin Media vs NTL Pension Trustee case and subsequent court of appeal ruling published in July 2024. However, the Trustees have no reason to believe that this will result in potential additional liabilities for the defined benefit pension scheme.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
