- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Consequently, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “Dividends of £3,000,000 have been paid during the period out of distributable reserves (2024: £nil).”
- “Finance Act 2021 enacted the corporation tax rate increase, to 25%, from April 1, 2023.”
- “The OECD Base Erosion and Profit Shifting ("BEPS") Pillar 2 rules were introduced in the UK with effect from 1 January 2024. The Group has undertaken an assessment of this and does not expect there to be any material financial impact on the company.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
