- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Stonebridge Group Limited
- Audit opinion
- 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 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
- “Turnover decreased by £1,913,407 from 2024 and the gross profit decreased by 6.06% to £385,415”
- “A year end operating profit of £162,778 decreased by £466,120 from 2024”
- “This was a challenging year but pleasing results continued to be achieved. The wider economic climate continues to be a difficult one, with high interest rates and with the IT industry increasingly moving towards a subscription model presenting challenges. Banks are also tightening their lending criteria which is also presenting challenges for the business.”
- “Future total income may be difficult to predict, however, we expect overall total overheads to be fairly similar as we also have no plans for recruitment nor to make any large investments in the foreseeable future.”
