Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Auditor
- RSM UK Audit LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Forecasts have been prepared which confirm that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The cyclic nature of replacements in the marine transportation industry can lead to fluctuations in turnover, 2024 has seen a 3.6% decrease in turnover (to £19.5m).”
- “Sales will be lower in the next twelve months as a consequence of reduced demand in the market as a whole.”
- “Challenging global economic conditions have persisted since the Covid19 induced recession. These, along with overcapacity in the marine transportation industry may continue to impact this industry and the company's revenues.”
- “As expected, revenue during the first quarter of 2025 has been higher than the same period in 2024. Gross margins have also improved and the company is expecting to make a healthy profit.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
