Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Material uncertainty disclosed

“We recognise the Company's reliance on financial support from Blenheim Finance Limited in order to meet its liabilities as they fall due, which is not legally binding and could be withdrawn. This condition indicates that a material uncertainty exists which may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore its ability to settle its debts and realise its assets in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include adjustments that would result if the Company was unable to continue as a going concern.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-03-31 vs 2024-03-31

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
