- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors have assessed the preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis is appropriate. In making this assessment, the factors considered, among others, include the current financial position and the profitability of the Company as well as their expectations in relation to future business prospects and future profitability and cash flows of the Company. The year to 31 December 2024 was a challenging period for the UK economy with both inflationary and cost of living pressures continuing towards lesser demand. By contrary, the demand from overseas increased as the drive towards bespoke tailored products and our lifting range continues to thrive. The ongoing support from the Parent Company, additionally confirms the depth of resources available to Silvalea for the foreseeable future. The continued integration during 2024, under one combined Savaria Patient Care group is proving to be successful with the introduction of new product lines and multiple enhancements to the current portfolio of products, improving our opportunities worldwide.”

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
