Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors are satisfied that the Company has adequate resources to continue business for the foreseeable future and this is augmented by a formal statement of continuing Group support from the ultimate parent company Bong AB. For this purpose, the Group comprises all of the companies which are under the direct or indirect control of the ultimate parent company. For this reason, the directors continue to adopt the 'going concern' basis for preparing the financial statements. In making this analysis, the directors have had regard to the guidance on going concern issued by the Financial Reporting Council.”

Significant events

• “The Company's principal activity continues to be the manufacture of paper stationery and packaging.”
• “The Company is conscious of the long term decline in envelope usage and the need to offer highly competitive pricing to maintain market share while continuing to diversify its packaging offering.”
• “The business, commencing in 2023 and continuing, has undertaken a significant re-structuring. Resulting in a significant reduction in its operating footprint, closure of loss making operations and an ongoing review of its operations.”

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
