Going concern

Affirmed

“On the basis of their assessment of the company's financial position, banking arrangements and current year forecast, and of the enquiries made of the directors of the company's parent, the company's directors have a reasonable expectation that the company will be able to continue in operational existence for the period of 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual report and accounts. The company has received a letter of support from its ultimate parent company which confirms it will support the company for 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The full-scale attack on the entire territory of Ukraine launched by Russia (with the support of Belarus) on 24 February 2022, marked the start of the Ukraine War. The EU, the USA, Great Britain and other countries reacted to the attack with severe sanctions against Russia, Belarus and the separatist areas in eastern Ukraine.”
• “The conflict in the Gaza region, has had no effect on the company in terms of turnover or cost. Rotor Blades has no current customers nor suppliers in the Gaza region, thus no decline in orders.”

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
