Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- IFRS
- Auditor
- Cooper Parry Group Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts.”
Significant events
- “On 16 September 2024, the Company received a debt recovery notice from HM Revenue & Customs, totalling €6.67 million, on behalf of the Portuguese Tax Authority. This notice related to potential reversal of corporation tax benefits from 2012 and 2013 under the Madeira Free Trade Zone, which the EU Commission subsequently ruled was not aligned to permitted state aid rules. The Company, which was under different ownership at the time, is currently disputing this claim through the Portuguese courts, the process of which is on-going, in close coordination with previous owners.”
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
