Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Auditor
- PKF Francis Clark, Statutory Auditor
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “Fleet additions continued, with total expenditure of £2.59m (2024 - £3.09m), largely financed through additional hire purchase. Investments made in modernising the fleet, a new cloud-based People platform, and advanced GPS fleet tracking systems / transport management software.”
