Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- RNS Chartered Accountants
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 original financial statements were authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “Turnover has increased by 18% in the year ended 31 December 2024. At the end of the respective periods, 49 vehicles were operated at 31 December 2024 compared to 40 vehicles in the previous period, to facilitate the additional sales seen. We have benefitted from the reduction in fuel prices in the year, which has helped boost both gross profit and operating profit margin.”
