- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Company is profitable, is in a net asset position and has its own cash reserves. For these reasons, the directors consider the Company has the ability to meet its outstanding liabilities and obligations as they fall due, for a period of at least 12 months from the date of the authorisation of these financial statements and on this basis, have concluded that there are no material uncertainties that may cast doubt on the Company's ability to continue as going concern. Consequently, the directors have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “Subsequent to the reporting date, the ultimate parent undertaking initiated the disposal of a part of the group which includes Frieze Events Limited. The transaction is expected to close later in 2025 and will result in a change to the ultimate parent undertaking of the Company.”

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
