Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. In assessing the going concern position of the Company, the directors have considered the ongoing political and economic situations and their impact on the cash flow and liquidity of the Company over the next 12 months, and the corresponding impact on the covenants associated with our financing arrangements. As at the balance sheet date the Company had cash reserves of £30,767,822 (2023: £32,137,133). The business is fully open, trading profitably and generating cash. The Company is reporting net current assets of £27,430,896 (2023: £19,950,011) and has produced financial and cash flow forecasts sufficient to demonstrate the business will continue to trade profitably and meet all liabilities as they fall due. Therefore the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for the next 12 months in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “Purchased the Crystal Rooms Adult Gaming Centre, located on the building's frontage on Cranbourn Street, but owned separately. This allowed the integration of the space into the main Hippodrome venue.”
• “On the live final of ITV's Britain's Got Talent, Channing Tatum announces the Hippodrome will host Magic Mike Live. His announcement 'breaks' TicketMaster, puts Twitter into meltdown and trends No. 9 globally. The show opens in November the same year.”
• “During lockdown, we took the opportunity to add an extra floor to our terrace to create an iconic rooftop bar.”
• “On 14 April 2025, Hippodrome Casino Limited sold its investment in Magic Mike Live for a consideration of $1.25m, and a 1% share of the newly created entity.”

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
