Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. At 31 December 2024 the cash balance was £3.2m and the overdraft facility remained unutilised. At 31 October 2025 the cash balance was nil and the overdraft facility of £8m remained unutilized. ... After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and financial statements.”

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
