“The Group directors have prepared cashflow forecasts for the TVS Interfleet Limited Group for the period ending on 31 January 2027, which give the directors reasonable confidence the Group and the Company will have adequate resources to meet its operating liabilities as they fall due within this period.”
Significant events
- “The year was one of transition as Priden Engineering worked with the other subsidiary companies within the TVS Interfleet Limited Group to enhance production efficiencies and extend the range of products that the Group can offer to the market which has seen continued economic challenges.”
- “The Company's investment into new innovative products (like the E-Mixer) puts it at the forefront of the market for products needed to support this transition to non-combustion engine vehicles.”

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
