Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Deloitte LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“On the basis of their assessment of the company's financial position and resources, the directors believe that the company is well placed to manage its business risks. The company remains profitable, has no external borrowings, and has a positive cash balance. Therefore, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the next 12 months from signing. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”
