Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Crowe U.K. LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors therefore believe that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “Additional inspections and repairs were introduced by the OEM which has doubled inspection and handling times - affecting our largest customer, and affecting smaller operators with the same fleet type as well.”
- “Ongoing supply chain issues with our contracted parts have impacted production efficiencies, causing fluctuations in management process times, supply chain and logistics.”
- “Post-COVID alignment of maintenance inspections has resulted in a 20% to 50% increase in overhaul volumes. The business models applied at contract inception did not account for pandemic outcomes.”
- “Increased competition in the market has led to the resignation of several staff members. This required us to reassign staff to cover positions and take on additional workloads while we sourced replacements.”
- “Following the balance sheet date, the Company was party to a group restructure whereby the investment held by the immediate parent undertaking, Rotable Repairs Group Limited, was transferred into Watts Desser Limited. The immediate subsidiary undertaking was subsequently dissolved.”
- “The immediate subsidiary undertaking is in the process of being dissolved, and the immediate parent undertaking will become Watts Desser Limited, a company incorporated and registered in England and Wales.”

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
