“The directors have no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt the ability of this company to continue as is or its ability to continue with current financing arrangements. It is the group policy to provide internal funding for companies and the Eurofins NSC Treasury monitor the cash for all UK companies on a daily basis. Further, the parent company is also managing a capital increase for all UK companies whenever needed to improve the equity position. In view of the above the directors believe that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events

The global supply of carbon-14 raw materials is currently -dependent upon a sole manufacturer based in Russia. Eurofins Selcia Limited maintains a significant inventory of key carbon-14 radiolabelled starting materials and can mitigate the short to medium-term impact of any carbon-14 raw material supply chain constraints. The carbon-14 raw material supply chain is under constant review but the longer-term impacts on our business are difficult to define at the current time and may impact on our business going forward into 2025.”

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
