Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- TC Group
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “Diagnostic World Limited was sold out of the Inhealth Group Limited in May 2024 and so no longer has a parent undertaking.”
- “In May 2024, £210,000 of loans owed by Group undertakings of the former parent company, C7 Health Limited, were written off. The £210,000 was not an operating cost.”
- “As part of the Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) between the Company's former parent and J Leonard, the Company was required to make a balancing payment of £413,971 to the seller.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
