Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The wider group has bank loan facilities and shareholder loans in place until 2029. The directors have prepared base and sensitised forecasts for a period at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. These show that the group is expecting to be able to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due and meet the covenants for the foreseeable future. Given the above, the directors believe that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
