Going concern

Affirmed

“The University's Council has reviewed the forecasts for the period to 31 December 2026 for the University of Roehampton and how adverse events could impact on cash flow, banking covenants and the going concern assessment made by the University's Executive Board. Whilst uncertainties exist in relation to January and April 2026 recruitment and non-completion for enrolled students, the level of discretionary spend, contingencies and actions already being implemented to generate financial savings give comfort that the University will remain a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. It is not possible to make long term assessments due to assumption volatility and potential policy changes. Sensitivity analysis has been carried out on areas of risk and uncertainty and mitigating measures have been put in place to reduce the impact of the risk factors identified. Whilst uncertainty exists, the University's Council does not believe that there are material uncertainties in making its assessment of going concern at the date of approving the 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
