- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have performed a going concern assessment for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, also considering events reasonably foreseeable beyond this horizon, which indicates that taking account of the inflationary impacts on the UK economy, higher interest rates, increased energy costs, labour market shortages and in light of the Company's ability to access the new EDF group cash pool on 01 June 2024 after the ending of the GE Vernova group cash pool facility on 31 May 2024, the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period.”

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
