- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis of accounting which the directors believe is appropriate for the following reasons: The group currently meets its day-to-day working capital requirements primarily through cash balances. The directors have prepared and reviewed cash flow forecasts up to 31 December 2025, which they consider to be achievable given the current levels of trading. The directors are confident that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

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
