Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have prepared projections for a period of at least 12 months from the date of the financial statements as at 31 December 2024. The directors do not envisage any direct adverse effects on the group from current issues of inflation, trade tariffs, energy price, and the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. The directors have, however, stress tested the projections for the secondary impact of these issues on the wider economy. On the basis of these projections the directors have formed the judgement that there is reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue operations for at least twelve months from the date of approval of the accounts. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis for the preparation of accounts and the financial statements contain no adjustments should the going concern basis of preparation not be appropriate.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
