- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for a period in excess of twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements which indicate that the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period through its trading performance in conjunction with funding arrangements supported by the Company's Ultimate Parent Company, Sumitomo Rubber Industries Limited (SRI).”
Significant events
- “The ongoing economic uncertainties arising from the impact of the conflict in Ukraine, together with inflationary pressures in most markets, has resulted in 2024 being another turbulent year for the golf industry. Despite this, the Company has seen sales in the early months of 2025 in excess of 2024 levels. The expectation is that the remainder of 2025 will generate a growth in sales and operating profit.”

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
