Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 101 'Reduced Disclosure Framework'
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Deloitte LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors have prepared profit and cash forecasts for the Company for the 24-month period ending 31 December 2026 and have considered the effects of the challenging UK construction market against the opportunities within the renewables sector. These forecasts indicate that the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due. Taking these factors into account, the Directors have the reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and for this reason, the Directors have adopted the going concern basis in preparing this Annual Report. 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.”

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
