Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“In assessing the appropriateness of the going concern basis of preparation the directors have reviewed detailed cash flow forecasts over the going concern period of review which runs to 31 December 2026, considering reasonably anticipated scenarios in relation to revenue and costs, including a severe but plausible scenario. Based on these cash flow forecasts the company can meet its liabilities as they become due. ... The company has obtained a letter of support from Caterpillar Inc. that confirms the availability of funding necessary to enable Progress Rail Leasing UK Limited to continue in existence as a going concern, to meet its liabilities as they fall due and to carry on its business for at least 12 months from the date of the approval of these financial statements. ... From a liquidity perspective Caterpillar Inc. ended the first quarter of 2025 with $3.5 billion of cash and available global credit facilities of $10.5 billion. Having considered the liquidity forecasts of Caterpillar Inc., the directors are satisfied that it has sufficient ability to honour the support confirmed to the company should it be called upon.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
