Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Hammond McNulty LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The decrease in overall Turnover. Operating Profit and Profit after tax during the year was due to the sunsetting of our legacy platform, this was anticipated by the Directors and aligns with the business strategy.”
- “Shareholders funds increased by 19% due to retained earnings, no dividends were drawn in the year, we anticipate that retained earnings will continue to increase in the coming years.”
- “The total average number of employees decreased by 7% during the year to 71, this was primarily due to staff movement across various departments, and efficiencies within the Company.”
