- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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 financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “2024 marks the 20th Anniversary of 7thSense Design Limited. In May 2024, 7thSense won a Display Application of the Year Award at the Society for Information Display's (SID) 2024 Display Industry Awards, for our management control, and pixel processing system at Sphere, Las Vegas.”
- “In February 2024, 7thSense won the Best of Show award at ISE in Sound & Video Contractor Category and in October 2023 were awarded Best in Market Award by Pro AV, for new products Juggler 2 and R-Series 10.”
- “During FY24, the group secured a high value contract, due to be delivered in FY25.”
- “Although the company was not directly impacted by COVID-19 in 2020, we are now seeing the effects of this, due to where the company typically sits in the supply chain for projects taking place in the themed entertainment industry. This has led to a reduction in turnover for FY24.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
