“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 original financial statements were authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The company became a subsidiary company on 28 June 2024.”
- “Turnover has increased by 11.1% in the year ended 31 December 2024.”
- “At the end of the respective periods, 80 vehicles were operated at 31 December 2024 compared to 75 vehicles in the previous period, to facilitate the additional sales seen.”
