- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 Group's or the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “There have been no events subsequent to the year end which materially affect the results for the year or the group's state of affairs at 31 January 2025.”
- “Subsequent to the year end, the group invested in a new waste transfer station at the Chelmsford site, in order to provide significant operational improvements and capacity. However, the installation of the new plant brought its own operational difficulties which resulted in downtime and reduced capacity for a period. The directors expect the group to report stronger growth and profitability in the last quarter's trading now the installation of the plant has been completed.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
