- Audit opinion
- Qualified
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In our auditor's report for the year ended 30 November 2023, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the Company's assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern and therefore we were unable to form a conclusion on whether the going concern basis of preparation for the financial statements was appropriate. This matter is resolved in the current year but our opinion on the current period's financial statements is modified because of the possible effect of this matter on the comparability of the current period's figures and the corresponding figures.”

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
