Audit & accounting basis

Accounting basis: FRS 102
Reporting scope: Standalone (parent only)
Auditor: Buzzacott Audit LLP
Audit opinion: Unqualified (clean)
Going concern: Affirmed
“Directors believe that the company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. The Directors are satisfied that the company has adequate resources available to continue to remain operational for the long term. Thereby they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”

Significant events

“The Directors recognise the past year has been a turbulent and difficult period primarily due to new US tariffs, reduced consumer spending, increased competition in both the wholesale and online market sectors and sourcing constraints on key product lines.”

Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
