Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis

- Standalone (parent only)

- Ernst & Young LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Based on the above, the Directors have formed a judgement that there is a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group of which it is part have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the going concern period which they determine to be until 31 May 2026. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of these Financial Statements.”
Significant events
- “A delay to scheduled completion of the development to November 2024 resulted in the fixed contract price with the funder and the contractor being adjusted to reflect the delay. Since this occurred at the end of the contract, the full impact of the reduction to overall contract revenue and costs is recorded in the current year, resulting in a debit to revenue and a credit to cost of sales in the 2024 profit and loss account.”
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
